You ever watch the video "drinking out of cups"?

Its supposedly a kid that locked himself in a closet on lsd and his friends recorded his conversation in there alone. It's great.

"Not my chair, not my problem. That's what I always say."
Just watched some of this and I'm like WTF am I watching..

Then I come back and read the part you said about tripping... Click. Lol

I swear he's just in there talking shit on whatever he's seeing.
 
you can only imagine how grateful i am... When i was first diagnosed and in the Hospital, they weren't sure if the inflammation was going to go down, and i was losing lots of blood. I remember a team of young new doctors(like 4-6) come in my room one day and greet me. They tell me they are the team on call and ready to perform the surgery to remove parts of my colon if it comes to that. At the time it definitely looked like that was going to be the outcome, they were worried that the inflammation was very close to a point of complete blockage and then toxicity would be the end of me.

Thankfully, Seriously THANKFULLY, the very next day the doctors came in and said the inflammation looks to be receding, and i was out of there within the week. They had given me a drug that ended up costing me ten thousand for one dose, Remicade, that they thought i would not have to pay for due to my finances at the time. Regardless, i ended up owing this hospital around $50k after my 2 week visit. I could not get the debt forgiven and ended up forfeiting my half of our father's sale of the house to the hospital. I am still thankful, money comes and goes, but i'm here and can talk about it.


YES! i am the one that made a big write up on lollipops. Damn that thing took me a hour or so to format it the way i wanted. Will have to see if i can import it here from you know where.

It's funny the minute i stop making them, weed stash getting low, people come out of the woodwork here locally to ask me about them. Same with flower, the minute i don't have enough to spare, everyone wants to buy some! lol. the way of life.

I will make a new write up soon if i can't copy the old one over. I also want to dabble in making a THC lotion for some shoulder pain, try to get off that Tiger Balm.

Seinfeld on Kramer using the Tiger Balm to heal his burn that they were going to use as material in their suit against the coffee place

paraphrasing:
"did i tell to you use the Tiger Balm?"
"no jackie, i didn't know what it would do!"
"nobody knows what's it going to do, that's why it's a balm! Now the Tiger Balm healed your burn and we have no case!"
"Sorry Jackie"
Tiger balm and arnica jell together reduce pain, inflamation and smell good. Just dont apply below the belt. I'm excited to learn about the thc lotion. A budtender told me that a 50/50 thc/cbd content worked best.

Can't really use tiger balm as the inflammation is in the GI tract when it happens. I've found a heating pad on my stomach really helps to stop the involuntary muscle cramping in my gut.

I do live some tiger balm on my shoulder but that's for old man aches lol

I want to try to make my own thc lotion sometime in the future
 
i've never even heard of it until here

the two big ones that put youtube on the map for me where the jedi kid and turtle man

didn't have fuckin youtube when i was in high school that i remember lol. i was in our HS's first offered computer science course, which was in Turbo Pascal on Apple IIgs... then the second year they upgraded to ibm 386 clones. I remember bringing in 1.44mb floppies that contained all of the nintendo roms and emulator (Nesticle) that spanned something like 40 floppies using pkzip. man was that funny... "insert disk 2 of 40" ... lol fuck. and then get to disk 30 something and get a CRC hash check error.... ugh. i'm glad the days of floppies are over. We never had the money for that elitist ZipDisk that was the only better option until CD-R came around soon after, and everyone and their grandma was making their own cd mixes at home from stuff like napster. i remember planning the tracks out on a CD to burn as difficult as deciding what to put in a time capsule.

Just with sift? Bro you should get a couple bubble bags and make some bubble. Super easy and contrary to popular belief, you can dry bubble in the fridge pretty darn easily and get borderline freeze dryer level bubble.
 
Yep just dry sift from the most seeded buds I didn't want to fuck with, had one herm real bad last grow and two that got pollen from it. Still got enough to make prolly 30-50 grams of hash with the current process.

I've thought about bubble but I like the process of dry, no chemicals, no water, just a little heat and add little pressure. Seems pure.

I also read somewhere on here about a guy that makes hash the way I did and his friend who makes bubble hash. The guy with the bubble hash has to give it away versus the dry sift hash making the bubble hash guy cough and say fuck, now that's hash.

But I've never even had bubble hash so I don't have any personal experience. What would be the reason to go to bubble hash over my current method? I really don't know, I always heard bubble hash was subpar
 
I've been trimming the long water roots and I think it's turning out well, and I adjusted the timer settings a week ago which is probably doing wonders as well. Huge difference in timer settings.

So I read that bubble can be slightly stronger than dry sift hash, interesting. Still curious what your thoughts are on the end product difference between the two. I've never tried bubble hash

Sup man and Happy 4th to ya! Its been hot as hell out as Im sure you know, so were staying indoors and enjoying the ac today haha. Hope your havin a good one as well.

And well firstly I should say that dry sift and bubble can both be done very well and I've had incredible dry sift AND bubble hash.

However, bubble hash is very easy to do, yields very well and results in fricken GOD level quality hash. I dont know what kind of bubble hash those broskies are trying to give away but they did it wrong evidently.

All you do is wash some buds in a table top washer, filter it through bags then scoop it out and slab it onto some parchment paper and let it dry for a week in your refrigerator and you got premium quality bubble. Of course you could also get a freeze dryer or a wine cooler to dry it better but a fridge works pretty well and its free.

Another reason bubble is better than dry sift is that it uses freezing temps to break off the trichs vs dry sift uses more force which causes more plant material to get into the hash. Bubble is cleaner hash and tastes better than dry. That being said, if you strain is dank as fk, than even the dry sift is gonna be dank but IMAGINE IF YOU MADE BUBBLE FROM IT. Some plants they even do a test while the plant is still alive for its ability to wash well.
If you smoke rosin, your smoking bubble hash that has been smashed in a rosin press. Lots of heads like the bubble cuz its a special smoke.

Doing some small upgrades while it's down.
Upgraded supply port/valve from 1/2 to 1".

Did a lot of cleaning to make sure I'm starting off right. Rinsed hydroton of roots, soaked in bleach, rinsed again, and then put them through the instant pot at high pressure for 40 minutes in batches. Also did the air stones through the instant pot. Everything seems clean as a whistle except for some salts in the bottom. Cleaned the tent and ozoned it too.

Gonna do another dump and plan on having four plants in by the end of the week that are quite far along in vegging.

Man that's so bad ass you found a way to manage your crohns. I was a street dealer for many years and my buddy always came to me for his brother with crohns, just sucked I was at the mercy of the pipeline and never could control what I was getting. Some strains helped some didn't. He moved on to dispo weed now 😒 but long as he feels better thats all that matters right?

So you actually bend your stems? I always just pinched them real hard...never knew if I was doing it right or not, but it would heal double thick like a broken bone
either work

bend

squeeze and pinch
 
finally satisfied with the deep clean thanks to you guys


I love this site, really don't get why i can't get my local growers to join, or join and participate. but then they ask me questions.... i tell them i don't know shit! but to come on here and yet we have what we have everywhere in the world...

thanks for those that encourage me and others, that's really what's it all about for some new growers... i know that the old site is the devil, but if it wasn't for some of you all there, i really don't know if i would have continued or whatnot. this place and any active and POSITIVE place is good. it doesn't have to be here. but any place that bans you for asking questions is obviously 100% sus
 
After cleaning I had silica cycle in rwdc 24 hours before nutes.

Put transplants in two days ago. Have two banana blaze, a purple punch and another alien dragon that is cloned from the same one the last run was cloned from.

Lost a little bit of roots during their removal from the aerogarden.. but expect to bounce back. Maybe a month of vegging in their final home before flip.

The one in the front right needs food. It came from the cloner and was being fed low ppms. One in the front left was just super cropped to get it lower.

These are the next round babies. Some are a little leggy being so far away from light in the cloner tent before their new little home.

Have two from Humboldt phenohunters, all gas og and jungle cake wedding tree.

Another one is white rhino and then two from a local breeder. Dreamqueen

whats that the dome thing for on the corner there
 
Mornings!

I love when I check in the system in the morning and nothing smells funny(hydro nightmares) and see all those bubbles in the res and can tell myself everything is alright. Res has zero air stones, just a venturi on a 55 watt DC jebao pump.

nice man. lets us know how they all smoke and rate them please. i've grown the BB, but will most definitely try some Acapulco Gold some time. never heard of alien dragon.
I love the way the acp gold smells the most. Going for that slow dry, just tested again today and a day or so away, read 15-18 humidity on the buds with the moisture probe, waiting for 12 than going to Grove bag up. I recommend the one from @SeedDude here. Really awesome taste

Alien dragon came from @Coco Lopez

My pheno didn't come out as nice as the one on the website, but still going to run it one more time to try to max its potential

on the alien dragon, it says " very heady smoke, it'll make you clean your house before you know what hit you" i haven't had a smoke do that that in years.
