CannaGranny’s Corner a Thread For General BS and Good Will On BudBuilders

Morning PAL! You a lurker this morning?
Mornin Friend!
You never know where I may pop up lol. I won’t be lurking for long, same day today that I had yesterday. I got two of five cut and jarred yesterday. These last three are big ones so I’ll be here this time next week still jarring bud!
 
You around for the age of majority card? They wanted to raise the drinking age to 21 from 19. So we all run out and pay about $25 to drink. Then a year later it was gone. Just a money grab. Still have my card somewhere.
I remember the age of majority but like i said, i basically quit drinking alcohol around 20yo

Yes, good morning to you all, I'm still not 100% I just got a nausea bout after getting up, I feel a bit wonky on my feet yet and food has a plastic type taste, its gotta be the antibiotics making me feel weird. I got 4 cut and hung yesterday 4 more to go.

We've had a weather shift and a few bad fires burning homes and making the air quality bad. They lost about 200 homes here yesterday with evacuation for about 2000 more. We're 30 miles away from it but its 100% out of control with Zero containment. Winds shifted today helping a bit but there's no rain predicted until the weekend and the woods are dry......just more BS to deal with.

Well I was worried about you! We got no time for this sickness business, we got plants to harvest!
We deal with forest fires here too. Generally it’s some tourist that sets the fire. They will tell you that the ground was wet. Well maybe, but that three feet is leaf litter is dry as powder.
When I get these last three jarred, I’m prepping for the one plant five by five scrog. Will be glad to get that monster out of my veg room!
Happy you are back, I kinda missed ya ornery old azz 🙂

After I pulled and trimmed the first 4 I put my revegged auto in my 5x5, I have the lights on 18hrs anyway over the last 4 at 11+ weeks in flower so she gets to spread her wings. She has to be 6 months old now so this should be fun finely flipping her. I'll give her a few days under the led's before I flip her, hopefully by the weekend she'll have the 5x5 on her own

Sounds like the medical program in my state all surrounding states are rec legal but my state refuses to legalize because they make a fortune selling mids

Speaking of monsters in veg rooms. "Grannnyyyyy there's a monster in my closet and I can't sleep"

Morning everyone! 🌲:coffee:
 
Was it nine pin by chance? That is brewed right here in Schenectady NY and they have quite a variety and its good lol.
Its all made with champagne yeast.
It might have been. For some reason I thought it was made by Saranac, but after looking at their website, they don't make one with pear in it.
 
So how does one do that? Roll it in your hand?
Well you could follow frenchie’s hot press method - but I’ve gone old school Afghan - it’s unkleaned drysift then gets heated an mixed with water and worked into a paste as the water evaporates then yes after that you can handle it - that cube will spend about 2/3 months curing before I smoke it ( hopefully) lol - I’m currently resting my grow area won’t have anything going for a month or so - when I have some good cured kief I’ll post a video - it’s work but worth it to me ! Lol course if I were in Canada cheebas sells domestic and import hash
 
Belvedere.... Elgin.. Woodstock... Schaumburg.... Naperville... I grew up west of there

I suspect we know some of the same growers. One of my friends growing up ran a few hydroponic and brewing supply store. I think he's out of the business now
I lived in Lombard in the 70's

Thank you.

My first attempt at doing something with it besides sprinkles was adding it to the worlds worst oil I made months earlier. My buddy liked it and would tell me how he used it. Had a strong pine smell.

Sadly can’t do buy once cry once anymore so I try to get either best bang for the buck or as close as I’m able that’s safe and healthy. Old schools fine by me. Time I can make.

Mosh, using your method you end up with the texture look more like what you "see" on cheebas , pressing with heat is more like the blonde Lebanese.
Pressed some in 2021 and stored in the fridge for 2 years wrapped in cellophane and foil it is aging ie light getting darker


Pictures from just now taken out and unwrapped,hard to see but it is darkening witb age20230531_112059.jpg20230531_112016.jpg
 
Dry sift screens. Then you separate the heads using one if several methods to get pure trichs, then you can hot bottle press it to get a more traditional hash than just pressing a puck. View attachment 5124View attachment 5125
Cool, thanks TSD. Something else to research now that I have data. Not near enough kief if that’s the goal. Good reason to grind some more. 🤣

I used last years bud. Very dry and in a cold area. Crumbling it up and rub it around, and after a couple screens you card it to push the heads through. Check out Dank Duchess on YouTube, she does good walk-throughs.
I separated the heads using the static method, where you rub a gloved hand or gloved paint roller in one direction across the final screen, it creates static electricity and the heads stick to the glove. Roller is easier because there's a clear line and the contaminate is easier to see and remove. Then you clean what's beneath the screen as well. 20230109_130459.jpg

Gloves we have lots of.

Trimbin should be okay for screen I would think? Thanks for the link. I’ll look tonight after dinner.
