MC, is the weed too dry to re-hydrate?

Well, its fairly harsh on the throat When it was fresh last year it had a really nice flavor but I didn't store it well enough and you know the story...

Were you thinking of like an orange peel rehydrate or similar?

Stupidboy suggested baking with it, which led me to smoke a dooby and surf you tube for close to an hour. A couple doobies later and I think Im going to make some butter with some and do an ISO batch with the other. All the video's I saw on youtube regarding cannabutter called for so little weed. Some only a quarter zip for a 1/2-1 lb of butter. I think Ill sprinkle a "little" more in there...

Something like that. Sorry it turned on ya.

 

[MagicChef]

Something like that. Sorry it turned on ya.

It's not all that bad I 'spose... I burned one the other day and it was alright... I'm going to try my hand at baking some tasty treats with some of it, hash with the rest. Its funny eh, never baked in my life, but now I'll learn. Never gardened much until I started growin' pot, now I have a back yard garden. So weeds "un-motivating, eh?"

I call bullshit!

So what other methods you got besides the old orange peel trick for re-hydrating DB?

 

[Maddhatter]

have you looked into BHO? i recently have been playing with that for the lower popcorn/trim! this shit is amazing! there is a special pipe for smoking, but other then that OMG this revolutionized what i consider amazing

 

[E.L.patient11]

BHO is how mad salvaged a ton of buds!

 

[kstampy]

Thanks for sharing your cabinet. I think something very similar would work great for my space and this really helped a lot! Nice plants too, wish I could of seen the SOG.

 

[MagicChef]

Fuck yeah...



Had to step away for a bit but back up and going again.

Lost a couple fem'd Tangerine Dreams I had going but such as life.



This go Im going with 12 NL's and a fem'd Tangerine dream. I've had amazing ?!?LUCK!?! with my NL's being female. I've actually grown a dozen out, given some out etc, and not seen a male. (knock on wood)



Going to SOG these NL's... they have always shown great structure...

Soil mix-

8 part org. pro mix
2 part EWC
2 part seedling mix
2-3 part perlite

 

[GrowBox420]

[MagicChef]

[DiscoBiscuit]

Hell yeah. Best wishes with the sog. Looking nice and clean in the veg chamber.

 

[Maddhatter]

[E.L.patient11]

On another note...

I selected a remote swamp location earlier in the year and just did the hike back there to clear the area and stash some goods.
I plan on doing a 10 plant go, all in 5 gallon buckets each dug into the ground using a wicking system.

I'll be running (5) Manitoba Poison and (5) Blue city Diesels...

Ive got experience with the Manitoba but never grown a diesel outdoors...

hang around

 

[Maddhatter]

woot!!! fucking woot!!!

 

[SpecialEd]

Good to see you back @ it Man
Lookin forward to another great run

 

[killerweed31]

ILL BE WATCHING YOUR PROJECT BRO, KEEP IT UP!!

 

[THCello]

Bummer, I was reading this through, well skimming for pictures and info really,
and I find myself at the end of this writing in progress.

Amazing cab, my personal favorite on the net that I've seen.
I'm looking to copy it if you wouldn't mind, for the most part.
Did you ever sketch out your ventilation?

I hope you still have a clone of that monster NL from the beginning.

 

[MagicChef]

Dont fret THChello
We are only getting started!

I just transplanted (10) NL's to bigger pots. All look healthy. I've got one that is a rooty,smelly little whore that I'm going to bet the farm on. Internode spacings are super tight and the roots nearly burst through the seed pot.

Here's some before and after transplant pics. When I transplant I always leave'em in some secondary window light for a day or so as I find I get less droop and plants respond better to the transplant. Just my 2 cents.

Before:



After:






Well hope you guys hang around here for my firsy SOG.
Should be a treat.



Peace

Venting Sketch

Venting Sketch

Ive had a couple questions about
venting so I drew up a sketch.
This is without the carbon scrubber and light trap drawn. Ive explained in words how it works so you may need to go back and read again. Hope this helps.
