Pomegranate grow here...that sounds FANTASTIC

Holler and I'll come over and test em for ya
 
Gummies are delicious! What better way to take our medicine. :blushsmile:

And I keep hearing the tinctures burn. I was planning on making some, but I think now I'll only do a very small test batch. Then I won't waste much material on it if I don't like it.

Sadly the tincture did burn. Reducing it down to make it more potent should help. I should be able to use less of it. I may just stick with butters. I may change my mind after trying this in the gummies. It's all a valuable learning experience. I will make them tomorrow and post some pics! I probably won't try them until the next day.

So excited! It's going to be a good week. My gummy trays deliver tomorrow and my Nirvana Maui Waui seeds will be here any day...next grow. I'm getting quite the collection! We need to move...:rofl: Hubby promised me an attached greenhouse...if I'm ever wheelchair bound, I gotta be able to grow!
 
Ugh! Have not made the gummies yet. I have been working OT. I have my grass fed gelatin, my lecithin, black cherry Jello, tart cherry juice, OG Kush reduced tincture (alcohol base). Sadly no time to do it tonight...and I thought I was happily smoking my high CBD low THC Therapy and realized I grabbed my CBD Mango Haze instead. :) I think I will be sleeping well tonight! I'm well and truly baked! My Nirvana Maui Waui beans delivered from Seedsman today along with a free AK-48 Fem and a couple of Liberty Haze! My dance card will be full for the remainder of the year....but I can't seem to stop collecting! They arrived addressed to me and labeled as "Boxer Shorts". Hubby texted me at work telling me he doesn't like boxer shorts! I told him they were for me ...:rofl: Not sure he realizes yet what the package actually is.lol Gummies and method are still pending. The girls are soooooooo cute right now! I'll get another batch up soon. I like to see how fast they change. Happy growing all! Peace tonight in the world I hope!

HaHa! The weight gain after marriage! According to Livestrong, In fact, newly married women in their early 20s gain an average of 24 pounds in the first five years of marriage and men in the same age group gain an average of 30 pounds during that same time, according to "USA Today," referencing that same study. i might just choose those boxers! :rofl:
I'm killin" myself. I'm still wrecked from my Mango Haze and those boxers are not going to fit Hubby! :laughtwo:
 
Tell hubby he'll like the boxers. They're sexy! ;)
 
Well...lots going on lately. Preparing for life after my shoulder surgery. 4 of my six girls have been transplanted to 5 gallon fabric pots. They looked a fright. Not sure how long my inline fan had been off for :( Hope they bounce back. I think they will....stupid me. Check, check, and check daily. Ugh!! Made my gummies. Black cherry! They taste good and came out very firm! The are super low dose to start. I can micro-dose with them or just eat a few at a time :). Here is the recipe. It worked great!

Cherry Gummy Recipe

Yield: 160 small gummies


1/2 & 1/3 Cup of tart cherry juice
5 Tablespoons unflavored grass fed beef gelatin
One 3 oz package of cherry Jell-O
1 Tablespoon lemon juice
I used 1 teaspoon of my reduced tincture
½ teaspoon liquid lecithin

I sprinkled the unflavored gelatin and over ½ cup of the cherry juice and stirred with a fork. It got quite stiff. I heated 1/3 cup of the cherry juice and added the cherry Jell-O mix, the firmed up unflavored Jell-O, and the lemon juice. I put on a low heat and stirred until the gelatin was dissolved. To check, dip a spoon in it and run your finger along the back of the spoon to ensure it is. Add your cannabis tincture and the lecithin and whisk it well. You are ready to use it. I used a squeeze dropper that came with my gummy pan. It worked like a champ!

I kept another pan of hot water on the stove so I could place my small pan of gelatin right in it to thin it out from time to time and keep it viscous as I worked with it. I stirred after every dropper full was used. In essence I created a double boiler effect. You can also use a metal mixing bowl and keep your mix over a hot pan of water while you work too. You don't want to heat the gelatin too much or it won't firm up quite right. Gelatin firms as is cools, not if it it is cooked more.

FYI. My tincture was made with 1 ounce of CBD OG Kush processed with 1 bottle of Graves grain alcohol in my Magical Butter Machine2 and then reduced down to 3 ounces of tincture

If my calculations are correct, I ended up with .01 gummies so I can use them as a micro- dose.
Heres a pic. Baby dinos! :D

It is so fascinating how something, some strain, some time in our lives when we find that perfect strain! I can not help you on the strain I have yet to have the pleasure of smelling a hot peppery but...ouuuu sounds tasty though. There was this super light green, fluffy, furry, and minty lil buds I received from a Flagstaff grow one time. They harvested early and were even selling it half price, only thing that was around at the time. All I was able to find out was that it was "KB" or Kind bud. Of course I do not think that is an actual strain. Such a smooth high; uplifting, happy, clear eyed and clear headed time. People often asked what cologne I was wearing and I would just crack up laughing.

Good luck on your search, mine has just begun.

Sorry for the late response lol, I was commenting on a comment from page 1. Awesome thread BTW, thanks for all the great info ie recipes!!!:thanks:
 
Thanks Luck33y7! Welcome. I am new at this. Enjoy your grows! They bring happiness in so many more ways than enjoying the weed! I never grew weed before this year. It's a lot of fun. There are so many knowledgable folks here in the forum. Great place!:welcome:

Great recipe Lady G

Did it seem to be even in all the gummies?

The more I eat mine the more I think they did all get an even dose of oil.

Grape jolly rancher is my next batch....

Yes. I think it mixed rather well. I had a feeling it would. When you think about it, vanilla extract is in an alcohol base too. As soon as I added the tincture, it spread evenly over the top, just like vanilla extract added to pastry cream. I whisked it rather well and continued to do so as I used it up. Mmmmmmmm! Grape jolly ranchers! Yum. I'm going to get some citric acid for the next batch and make them really tart!
:drool:
 
My shoulder surgery is scheduled for Tuesday! I am excited to get something fixed that I can get fixed. Hubby will have to tend to my girls for a while! I will take some pics tomorrow. I have my gummies and some decarbed CBD capsules. No opiods needed, thank you very much! They make me itch! I will take advantage of this down-time to study and to work on my cookbook for fellow autoimmune disease sufferers. Sorry! This has morphed to a strange journal...but needs be! This is the reason I grow. I want to make myself better, and I really want to shorten the journey for others that are in the same way. No one should have to go on a long journey to find their own cure.

Good luck with the surgery! Don't apologize for your journal, I love it! I think it's great to see and learn the ways to use this plant to replace big pharma.
