Hey Shed
I remember you saying that grape seed oil is great because it is a good carrier oil and that it could also be used in capsules, right? Is there a type of grape seed oil I need to look for? Or will any old brand do?
As Chris mentioned below and
@Derbybud has said as well, grapeseed oil for one-stop infusion will work fine. There are some advantages to EVOO in terms of bioavailability on a molecular level (or something over my head), but grapeseed works as well, and a lot simpler to make it all in one go.
Im always like... 2-3 Mums... Maybe 6 in Flower in the tent...MAX!
Reality...... 8 in Flower....9 Mums-spares.
Reality is right Low! I'm trying to offload a few next weekend, because the seedlings are going to need new homes soon.
Hey Shed! Just out making my rounds! I hope you and the family are well and from the looks of it the garden is rockin! Keep doin what your doing my friend and I’m glad to be back!
Welcome back Mrs and Mr Dutch! Looked like you both had a great time
When my dogs start showing their age I usually get them a puppy.
My dog does not get along with most other dogs. I wouldn't inflict another dog on her in her own home!
So glad your pup is doing better.
Thank you VG.
Looking good in the shed, Shed.
Thanks B!
I use nothing but grape seed oil, topicals and capsules
You and Derby both...good recommends.
Chris!
Well there you have it. I knew somebody would set me straight
Shed I had that happen when my led lights were too close.
Top to bottom or just the ones closest to the lights?
Shed - get a new dog now! Let them be friends for a while
Not if I can help it. She definitely doesn't want another dog and neither do I or the kids. Only my wife, and that's only to distract her from her potential grief.
In my coursework I was revising today - Mel Frank told us that the stigmas only have a life cycle of about 4weeks so there will always be dried ones from a little way into flower.
I’m sure they’re fine.
Oh thanks Amy! I would feel better if it was still putting out new ones though.

What a weekend! My apologies for being offline again but it looks like it may be a regular weekend thing now. My time is getting tighter and tighter on Saturdays and Sundays now for some reason. Anyway, here is the Monday update.
Not a lot happened plant-wise the past two days and the sun was hardly around at all, so everyone was tucked under their respective LEDs, which makes documenting a lot more difficult. I'm not all that bothered about the vegging ones, but I would prefer the Candidas to be in the sun, if it were only out.
Speaking of Candidas, one of the supercrops I did a few weeks into flower broke from the weight of the buds (a cautionary tale), so I took it off and tossed in the skin-salve pot (
@Heavenly Hybrid...still cooking, so pic tutorial to follow this week).
The Super Lemon Haze seed never made it up, so I dug it out to do a seedopsy on it. Doesn't look like the stem was strong enough to push its way to daylight:
I topped and thinned the Berry Bomb clone from
@Agemon:
Trained it out a bit:
And put the cuttings into soil, along with some cuttings from the Peyote Critical top:
As I mentioned above, I'm trying to offload plants, so next weekend I'll be handing off four Bedroom Cookies 2.2.x plants as well as the Peyote Critical top to a local inactive member who loves indicas! I've still got more indicas than I need now.
I started the skin-salve-making process on Saturday morning and still have it cooking this morning. Based on the way the next few days look I probably won't have the tutorial up until Thursday. But the process is under way!
We spent about 5 hours at the vet ER yesterday with our dog, who's problem may not have been a kidney infection at all (though it seems she coincidentally did have one). The new diagnosis is possible compression/degradation of a couple of cervical vertebrae. She's now on a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory, a muscle relaxant, and a pain killer, and she seems to be feeling better. Or not feeling anything at all! The neck x-rays were inconclusive and only an MRI would tell us what is really going on with her. But the Dr recommended a more conservative approach to see how she does after a week of rest and meds. News as it happens, and thanks for your continued kind thoughts.
That's what I've got. It's been an exhausting weekend and I've got a bit of a cold on top of everything, so I'm moving a bit more slowy than usual. Apologies in advance.
