Glimmer Grows More Autos - Blue Dream - Amnesia & Dark Devil In Coco With MH/LEDs

Look at that! I dragged my feet enough I'm four pages and days behind. Forgive my tardiness. Let me jump back and catch up right now while I still have free time.

Hi Glimmer. :love:
 
Canna Butter update:

IMG_62863.JPG


Holy crap, this stuff is strong. 3 hours and it's just insane -- dank. It's dank. I'm now a little scared of it -- have I made it too strong???

I need to test it but I'm a little intimidated. Do I cook up some pasta and put half a teaspoon's worth of butter on it?

Yes. :battingeyelashes:
 
You'll need a sauce to cover the flavor.
 
Buttered toast with a rich jam is another quick option.
 
Man I wish I could get my hands on some dark devil seeds. They don't ship to the US. That makes me a sad panda lol

I order through Herbie's. You can too. We'll be looking for you on the Dark Devil Community Grow thread now Stoney. :battingeyelashes:
 
The butter cooked for 5 hours. At the end this is what I have:

I didn't have a ricer, so I used two large metal spoons that fit into each other -- one of them was slotted. I pressed out as much butter as I could from the bouquet garni, and then, when it cooled down a bit, I pressed it by hand to get the last bit. It's the darkest butter I've ever made.

It's now in the fridge, hardening up.

I kept out .5 teaspoon and am cooking a little bit of pasta for the tasting and evaluating of dose.

The whole house smells of it -- practically REEKS of it :) It smells peppery and popcorny (that's the decarb) but also as if I cooked the worlds largest dish of hot buttered fiddleheads (Canadian delicacy -- tightly rolled fern heads -- intense very green vegetable smell. Like super strong spinach :)) I've never made any canna butter that smelled so GREEN. Chlorophyll, I guess.

That was 1 lb sweet (unsalted) butter
2 T liquid soy lecithin
38.5 mostly dried trim (sugar leaves, some popcorn buds)
4.5 g shake and overdried bud

NOTE: I'm eating it now -- small bowl of penne with .5 teaspoon canna butter, a little extra ordinary butter (because, butter) and a bit of salt. -- Wow. You're so right, Sue: that flavour is super strong! Spinach penne! It's not unpleasant though, at least in a pasta-based context. Dose started at 5:00 pm.

UPDATE: 5:13 pm -- I swear it's kicking in. Heavens, that's fast. Body buzz all over. Tongue tingly. Roof of mouth going a bit numb. Note to self: DO NOT LET THE CAT LICK THIS
 
Reps for this demonstration of cannabutter. Poor cat doesn't get any....:bravo:

Thanks, MJ! And, no the cat doesn't get any :) He was sniffing around my empty bowl so I snatched it away from him, and then took a good look at the bit of butter in the bottom of the bowl and I ATE IT MYSELF. Just to protect him, don'tchaknow

you let the cat lick your regular butter?:scratchinghead:

heh heh heh -- They really like butter! We have a cover over our butter dish but if they find a plate with left over butter on it they go to town!

Great work Glimmer, excellent demonstration!

My how far you've come. **allow me to wipe a tear**

+reps indeed!

Pigeons, I send you big hugs, my friend :)

Never mind i found them thanks so much I could not wait to order so I ordered dark devil lol. Can't wait

YAYAYAYAYAY!
 
Okay, rest of butter report :)

HOLY. SHIT.

I'm still affected by the 2.5 ml of canna butter I ingested yesterday at 5 pm. That's 18 hours. I'm not full-on whacked, but I'm a bit fuzzy and I'm moving very slowly :)

I can say that I have never had an experience like that before in my life. I've been high, but I've never gone to the places I went to last night. The most amazing thing was that I was out of control -- safe, but beyond what I would let myself get to with smoking or vaping because when you're smoking or vaping you can tell when you've had "enough". Control pulls us back. Because I ate, not knowing the dosage, I got way more than I would have taken another way.

My mother was a research chemist and my father was a research psychologist. I kept notes :) Here they are verbatim -- and it was INCREDIBLY hard, when I was my most high, to type even this much

5 pm started eating
5:15 noticed tingling
5:45 definitely stoned
6:15 hallucinations
7:15 deep sense of oneness of all life
7:25 a long time - thoughts breaking down
7:42 deeper and deeper in time has stopped
7:53 wow I am experiencing everything from the other side of the barrier
8:10 wowow
8:18 falling asleep in my own veins - what binds releases
8:27 time speeding up heh heh heh
829 we unspool and let go
8:32 that's what nirvana is
9:39 starting to come down - everything is still beautiful
Especially we need to cleave to the despised part of ourselves
Everything is a metaphor
Everything we think we're good at we suck at
Everything we teach we should study
Limitations and strengths
10:11 some very powerful thoughts now - reading about Buddha

Woke up about 9 am -- very mellow and slow and peaceful. I never felt unsafe.

Thank you, all my friends -- thank you for being there. I wish I could tell you what you mean to me. I wish I could be a better friend to you.

And my last thought is:

I got to that place using a PLANT I GREW MYSELF IN MY SHOWER.

How can this be illegal?

:Namaste:

Damn GG,
You really crystallized the experience for us all wonderfully! Great report!
Clearly it's effective meds. I noticed the very dark color of your butter. Was the color from using the dark devil in your butter or did you have the simmer temps up a bit high? My butter gives me a lime green but not as dark.
Well done my dear.:goodjob:
Your thoughts please
 
:adore:

As I read through, I felt like I was trippin with you! You did so well to explain. Man, I wish I could get a high like that!!! I feel like Ij would have to eat a pound!

Great job! Hope you and the hubby had some fun!

P.S

You're a great friend :love:

Thank you, Stages :) *shy* It was stronger than the simmer I would use on a stovetop or over gas -- that's the crockpot's lowest setting. It was a strong simmer -- I would have set it to just barely be in motion if I had had control, but this was a stronger simmer than that. Not a rolling boil. Too stoned to explain :)

And the trim I used was the Early Miss (Big Bud x White Widow) from my first grow. There were some darker leaves and stems in there because things purpled up because of the low temps in flowering.

:adore:

Yeah, it's probably just my tolerance, eh? I realize how much I just play with cannabis, how rarely I commit :) But it was (and is) a fabulous ride. I look at the pound of green butter I have in my fridge right now and think: there's probably 96 teaspoons (well, less, because of loss) of butter in there: at .5 teaspoons that's 192 doses equal to what I took last night. :jaw dropper:

My husband was a mostly amused spectator - he says he was a little concerned because he's never seen me quite that far out, but he said I seemed happy enough. Before I give this to my mum or husband, we'd better test a lower dose!
 
Okay, now a real update on what this thread is supposed to be about: my second grow!

As of this morning all three plants have popped -- BD actually popped yesterday -- I think I planted her a little less deep than the other two because she was so tiny :)

In the tent:

The humidity is low: Should I put in some open containers of water?
