Bluter's Happy Home For Hilarious Hempsters

ok cool coconut oil based because originally I thought you might be doing ground up, decarbed weed in capsules.
Have had some stomach issues creep in lately so wanted to know more!

you can ingest the oil itself instead of making capsules if you want or use it sublingual. i also make a vegetable glycerin tincture for sublingual application that is much faster acting. the canna pills are good for day long use over an extended time.
I sort of miss those injuries. I'm skinny and boney. Used to play football (soccer) on 4D Astroturf Pitches. Mix of ex minor league pros older though and and thuggish young brokers. I'm essentially a fear free zone and can run forever. It was like pinball. My hips often getting smashed by a players knee and then landing on it. That funny limp and nagging ache I kinda enjoyed for the week after. Reminded me I'd done something! Even at 7am in Hong Kong it was 30c and 85% Rh though. But I did my hamstring for the first time and didn't realise. Well I did the back of my thigh hurt and I decided to work from the pub so I could I wear shorts all day. On the way back from the bathroom someone pointed out I had a black purple bruise the size and shape of my entire right thigh. Some sports masseuse said it was like a Level 3 (of 4) Hamstring injury, 2-3 months out for a pro player.
Twas but a flesh wound! I played the following week but just played centre forward. Running more than 10 yards was an issue. About three months later I did it again which was about when I moved to Thailand and stopped playing. 7am starts man. I would go to bed at 3-4am near everyday back then.
Dunno pain is good sometimes. Reminds us we're alive.
I have 5L of 99% Food Grade Ethyl Alcohol pictured. I'm also about to sign the lease on a Palm Tree Hut as a dispensary and have dunno 7-8kg of weed on hand. I'm wondering if there is a base oil I can make? Some recidivists and degenerates will just drink it. But I'd also like to have something on hand to potentially make a salve/balm/maybe edibles with. The Alcohol was only $11 I think. Easy to get more.
What do you reckon Senor Bluter?

you can have this one if you want. i'm kinda over living with it.
there was a time. getting more plush now. sigh.
i'm purple and swollen near to the knee all down the outside from the hip.
i broke my tailbone a couple times snowboarding and it's about the same level of ouch. tailbone maybe was a bit worse and more colorful. used to have a really funny not internet safe pic of it.
thailand ? was just watching a news report on the thai gov't acting to repeal the sale and consumption laws. there's been a warning to tourists here planning vacation travel.
i no longer do alcohol extraction. you'd have to start with an extraction / evaporation method, some go straight to air, most involve heat which is faster.
that gets you a phoenix tear base product, or what we used to call weed oil here. that can be used recreationally on its own or as a base product in other things rec or med.

thought i'd add a little content here while i am engaged elsewhere in the Seedsman comparative journals. my jungle room has been silent for some time now.
decided to clean it out and start some seedlings for mom's garden. she can't get around very well now and has trouble breathing, so thought she'd have to give up on having plants this year. told her to use the jungle room to start a few plants for easy access.
so i set some up.
i was thinking she'd want maybe a dozen. i wound up with 64. the seeds are horribly old and i don't think all will go.
it's late enough we could plant direct, but we're getting weird weather, rain and snow mixed like today, then 18 - 20c the next, sometimes both in one day. i'm hoping i can give the plants a head start indoor.
here's a tip for setting solo cups up to plant a soil or coco type seedling. i make the drain holes in the solo with a nail or screw head heated to melt a hole in the plastic.
it's easy to tap a screwhead into the bottom of an empty beer can then tighten it in a little bit. provides a nice stable handle to heat or hold the hot screw safely.

Great tip on holding the hot screw...much better than your fingers!
I hope they don't all come up because that looks more like a farm.

they call me old hot mitts ..
she got a little carried away when it was someone else's effort she was spending lol
i don't mind. she not likely with us very long anymore. hope she sees harvest.
they are gonna need them. i haven't done a real garden plant start for yrs.
i made a 2 : 1: .5 mix of sunshine # 4, promix potting and vegetable, perlite. media got a mild dousing at planting, but just til damp, no runoff. some seeds got a 12 hr soak, most went into the media and good luck.
some of them are from packs so cheap they have to be 40 yrs old .. 50 to 99 cents on most. i don't think i saw above $1.50.
have given the tops of the cups a spray if the media pulls from the sides but no watering. i know there's moisture under the surface.
I really hope your mother sees the harvest from this planting, and many more.

Hello bluter. I hope you are well today.
I posted about my Carnival plant in Hempy Headquarters but she looks even worse today than yesterday so I'm hoping you can help me figure out what's wrong as I consider you the hempy expert around here.
All of my plants have brown tips but the Carnival is the worst. I don't think it can be a pH problem since I've gotten pretty good at getting it to 5.8 recently.
Anyhow, she's on Day 29 of Flower and here are today's photos:
She's currently being fed 5g/gal of MegaCrop every 3 days. I'm wondering if I should flush her and start fresh?
Anyhow, help would be appreciated.

that does look like ph. how are you controlling ph ?
what size are those buckets and are you growing autos or photos?
what are the temps, rh, and light ?
at that point in hempy i'm feeding every day, or at least every other day.. the plant eats it so fast they have drained the res by that point. there could be a few things going on.
edit : i am on shows this wkend so it may be a bit before i can answer back.
Sorry for the late response but I had a couple of bad eye days.
I don't think it's ph now. I did some research online and I think maybe I was feeding them at too high of a MegaCrop dose so I flushed them and then fed them at 4g/gal of MC and see how that works out. But thank you so much for detailed reply.
I use a Bluelab ph pen that is calibrated once a month. The ph is determined after I add MC and cal-mag to the water and it's always 57, 58 or 59.
2L pots and they're photos.
84F, 38rh and 680 ppfd
I'm feeding one plant every other day because she's demanding it but all the others haven't emptied their reservoirs after 2 days. The one that is being fed every 2 days is the biggest at 25x24". The next closest is 18.5x18".

it could be a pk excess then. 5.5 is a bit too much at that point in flower. 4 is gonna be a bit too low for photos but bang on for autos.
wondered if you are you using a real ph adjuster or something like lemon juice. if lemon juice or something similar then you'll have ph issues.
good for 2L. next time get perlite to almost the top. leave only about an inch. it settles tighter.
all decent.
your feed timing is off.
feed them all on schedule regardless of what they've eaten.
every single one should be fed at least every second day right now. i'd almost be every day. frequent res changes keeps hempy super happy.
as soon as they are 2 - 3wks in i'm feeding every day. hempy gets fed on a simple 3-2-1 schedule. deviate and you'll find problems every time.
add some h202 when you feed and they will smooth out even more. about 10ml to 2gal of feed water at 27-30%.
edit: if you run the h202 simply toss it in after ph'ing. it affects nothing and works the best that way. you'll see almost an immediate improvement. i only run it the last 2/3s of flower and less in winter grows.
if you wanna clear everything out and reset then do a sealed flood and drain type flush with h202 then let sit for 24 hrs before a refeed. then watch them take off. hempy flushes use piles less water and generate amazing results far past other media.
reply for details on it or search the thread. i know it's in here somewhere.
Hey Bluter,
I'm checking Hempy Headquarters now, but I was wondering how you sterilize your perlite between grows?
So far I've put it in Corning Ware dishes with water and baked it at 120°C, and now that it's cooled off I'm spraying it with 3% H2O2.
Overkill?

Damn I just soak mine in water with bleach for 15 minutes, rinse, and let it air dry (any residual chlorine will outgas in a few days).
That would be easier.
And faster, lol!
I'm not too worried about residual chlorine either, considering active hydro guys use it in their systems sometimes.
I am hoping to get these seeds started in the next few days though.
