420's West Hippie Grows Candy Kush & Krush, Goliath 1k MH/HPS DWC

Well I was typing out the 8 jars with different dates of harvest is gone , I guess 8 day’s sitting in the post is too long . I’ll pull the paper work back out and start over because I think it’s interesting the different effects on us .
I’ve fought fires for the last six days , a volunteer I don’t work out every day so to say I came home a hurting. Saved by Mama and @HashGirl , the guys made more of HashGirls cream out of Candy . Mama rubbed me down with the cream and now she says her arthritis from decorating cakes has help her hands .
For those that don’t have her cream in the medicine cabinet I’m feeling real sorry for you . So you can go
Here and help yourself.
 
:welldone: on protecting folks from the fires WH but make sure to protect your lungs too!

If you can, enter the data for more than one jar per day. ;)

Finally going to press some well cured buds into rosin . You’ll see it doesn’t have the milky look of the fresh 10 day cure . Will be no CBGa in this mix . Didn’t do a full 2 ounces, close .
I used the rectangle puck maker , a lot less work then the round 30mm puck maker .

Accessories upgraded to 22 mL cups
And my favorite the press and accessories. Added new 22mL cups , no more bubbling over in the decarb cycle .

190f with a hurry up and wait with snugged plates . The rosin starts to ooze the press hits 2500 psi for one minute then last minute is 5k psi .
IMG_4734.jpeg

IMG_4734.jpeg

Why 5 presses I pressed all four at one time together .
I know you see five presses but the one up front is all four at once for three minutes total , may have gone longer .
IMG_4736.jpeg

IMG_4736.jpeg

My favorite part scraping and rolling rosin off the parchment paper. Started to let it spread out and make some cool sun glasses but no playing today .

Noticed it wasn’t milky looking long cure .
Here’s the weight of the rosin .

Appears oven ready and a couple temp checks.

All upc facing I hope

IMG_4742.jpeg

IMG_4742.jpeg

All-in-one capsule is for powder not oil . But works great

IMG_4743.jpeg

IMG_4743.jpeg

Turned the boxes around in case someone wants the upc .
The capsules are the clear which don’t leak like the light blue ones I have .
Love the magnetic mixer same brand as my PH meters . I remember mixing this by hand but one cap might make you couch locked from not being mixed appropriately.

The one on top at thread helps keep the empty caps upright .
Don’t need the blue or the cap set , rather set the caps myself. The one on top in the back helps support the bottom capsule . The tops of the capsules are in my whiskey sipping glass .
IMG_4747.jpeg

IMG_4747.jpeg

No blue needed or compression plate .
IMG_4748.jpeg

Full of empty capsules bottoms
Whiskey sipping cup has the tops .

IMG_4749.jpeg

IMG_4749.jpeg

Bottom cap is ready for the product but not cool enough at this point . I need about 80f to add the sunflower lecithin and it will be 15 mL .
IMG_4753.jpeg

Cooling
IMG_4763.jpeg

IMG_4763.jpeg

Getting closer
IMG_4764.jpeg

IMG_4764.jpeg

14.787 mL = 1 tablespoon
100 mL cco
11 mL rosin
Mix till temp hits 75-76f then on to the caps
14.787 mL of sunflower lecithin or just say one tablespoon
100 mL cco
11 mL rosin or 11 grams , but the 11 grams filled 11 mL .
Should be 126 capsules total when finished. This is the hard part hurry up and wait , don’t want to melt any caps and make a mess. I put the artic air in front and center. House temp is 77f sure I should have stayed in the shop I had it down to 68f while I pressed .
Finally

We should have it all . And we did hit 126 caps. As the tray holds 100 at a time and easy to figure out how they work . I went ahead and used the blue tray as you can see it snaps the caps on then I was able to drop them on the napkin to make sure no leaks . In doing this it’s as I said before hurry up and wait .

A few more pics next post to complete the deal .

Sweet setup and beautifully ordered and slick production line!

So 4 pucks sort of half oz for ~52g yielding a shade under 20% which is solid, right?

from the colour of that rosin its not do si dos... and the rosin is very runny so im guessing its still a bit moist for pressing giving a bit higher yield.. versus thick rosin..

There's nothing I like better before signing off here and hitting the hay than another excellent WH squishing and capsule-making pictorial! Not to mention how cool it is that you got the bar codes in the pics. :love:

And I hate that one capsule with the bubbles so much that I squeeze the last ml+ back into the jar and start again with a full syringe, just to make sure. :)

:thanks:

More than I expected Nick . Normally long cure has a shorter amount of rosin . I squeezed all four together last two presses and got more rosin . I need to get some everclear to get the rest out but that’s in Grandpa Tokin’s oil thread .

I’ve never tried butter or powder lecithin, this was OldSalt’s recipe that I’ve been stuck on for four years now .
 
Hey West Hippie!
Hola from south of the border! Haha.
:nicethread:
I can see I've got some reading to do.
Nice setup!!

I try to avoid the bubbles to , had to slow the mixer down but still had a few bubbles. Just didn’t want to cool enough to get in the capsules 5 hours it took this time , crazy. Couldn’t tell the quality yet was tired and fell asleep as quick as I hit the pillow and it hadn’t been 2 hours yet . They brought me five of these tank’s yesterday morning and all afternoon I hit 97 blood oxygen and still there this morning. Doc claimed the inogen wasn’t big enough and as usual it showed .
Hope you had a great night sleep.
 
Loving my HPS/CMH experiment WH 😅

Apart from the masive issues with basically growing outdoors in the tropics where its hot an humid as all hell and adding in 1300W of lights 😂

Its a tough gig relative to LEDs so far - that said environment could be improved I wasn’t doing it in the carport and its mostly just height constraints now.

Its very pretty light though isn’t it?

Like a Christmas card

Congrats on those O2 levels...any higher and you'd blow away in the breeze!

:welldone:
 
think i have to quit smoking pot as well.. going to have to try making some capsules too west.. guess im getting
to old to be smoking coughing to much ..

in the above caps how many milligrams of thc is in one cap guess need to know how much thc in the rosin ?

11000 mg / by 126 capsules = 87.3 mg of rosin per capsule .. is that a big dose to eat?

They dropped off five more of these tanks . After being off of it all day still at 95 . Actually has my eyes wide open.
Then I went to Krissi’s thread , speechless.

I need to find the chart for this , had it @InTheShed thread that figures it for us . I’ve had as much as 225mg with the dosidos. I use the 2/0 caps .
OldSalt would test his at 100 mL cco . The dosidos could have used 200 mL CCO . But my dosidos came from Canada and there not a sponsor anymore.
Save yourself from smokeing , lungs and heart will thank you later .
