Damn son you go hard, respect
thank you
Hello all,

Incredibly inspirational thread going here with all kinds of contributions (not just pot). Good show.

@led05 Toothless Gambian - this demands an explanation :)

Toothless Gambian, it's just that, a pure Gambian that just popped up that has no serrations at all, absolutely none..... 3-4 years or so ago I did a bulking / reproduction of some old and a rare The Gambia seeds, seeds @Mustafunk shared with me....... Now I enjoy making seeds of all species of plants and have been doing so a very long time, so like normal I made a ton of Gambian too........

couple weeks back I popped @20 seeds of 5 pure NLD lines, to check on strike rates, how things look, to grow out a few of each of my favorites.... One of the buckets I choose from was Gambian Stars, which is my favorite moms seeds, vs all seeds, I generally make 2 or 3 buckets from each seed process per cultivar... anyhow....

I've probably popped 150 or so Gambian seeds by now that at least grew into tiny plants, this is the only one like this.... In my life I've had a handful of plants with little to no serration ( minimal serration is actually a colombian trait) but this one takes the cake, definitely the most extreme example I've ever seen.... I breed and grow a lot of pepper plants too, and recycle all my mediums indefinitely, so at first I thought it was a pepper seedling...

but as it gets bigger.............

PS - These serrationless plants = waxy caked in trichomes powerhouses in my limited experience, yellow petioles where they meet the fan.... This point right here, this is a different Gambian plant, but I expect this will be all yellow and even more waxy, but as you can see.... The Gambian Line in general..... well it's got the goods :)

I'm expecting the serrationless one to be even more waxy, waxy, like dipped in candle wax THC...... Yummy :greenstars:

Heavens, buckets you say?
Haha - while I do have many millions of seeds, of 100’s of cultivars, buckets is simply a descriptor to describe separation… reality is they are in tiny jars a few months to cure then go into small envelopes or baggies into vac sealed jars either in fridge or Freezer, pill bins in my desk top drawers for things I may grow in a year or two or so, easy access and all…

Good potato harvest: Russian Banana Fingerlings & Keuka Gold, both are yellow & creamy inside, these are huge fingerlings - 100-125lbs here or so

Been doing this very long time; watching others… everyone over complicates IME some to extreme levels hard to fathom… what you begin with matters hugely too

I’ve compressed @ 2 elbows of (Zam/Jam x 90 Haze) x Cambodian 2 into this 2 gallon bucket… I freeze & do work in the freezer… I use 3.5 liters 190 proof ever clear… you sleuths are saying that won’t cover 2 gallons… but after 5 minutes I’ll flip it over for 5 minutes… no shaking, no nothing, just Ice cold gentle extraction then strain…

Once most is strained slowly in freezer I’ll use filter flask with 1 micron diesel filter (best by far way better than lab paper etc - reusable & cheap) to get all rest..,

Then into the machine…does a fantastic job of extracting to exact consistency I choose & captures nearly all ethanol…

That recapture contrary to what you may hear is filled with terps and even though clear will fuck your up special if you drink it, or you can just use it again to extract…

On average I pull 3-4 Ozs of premium oil from this then I decarb that in coconut oil in a Turkish coffee pot for edibles, I put that into my morning tea, afternoon coffee, nightly tea etc

I’ve done this enough time I can pick the buzz I want just by watching bubbles & knowing inputs…

Way more often than not people say it’s the best oil they’ve ever had, I can only relay what they share, I love it too I must say..,

Long legs, giddy up but you take too much you’ll trip balls and ego dissolution

Ice bucket goes on top, low cold & slow under pressure - great individual counter top machine, I get little to zero smells from it while in use

Sorry friend for the belated response, I’ve come days in a row now to view yours and I am still speechless. It’s humbling to see such a fantastic display of health. I’m listening and observing in awe.

Cleanliness is godliness…. Or at least it prevents a ton of shit :) - and thank you
