Ok... and we have our Germination and Hempy Project Started

And the contestants are, drum roll Please

Siberian Haze Auto... of all the Autos ive Grown, This is my Favorite. Its a High THC and CBD strain, It will be tested when I get my Kit. Nice High, Sticky Dense Buds, and the GF loves this one too. The Auto is a 50% Sativa, 40% Indica and 10% Ruderalis

Purple Kush Fem Seeds from CKS... I have had bad luck with this one so far, my issues, so want to try one again.

Critical Kush This is a freeby and its Indica, so Figured Id give her a wack, and she is a Kush

All 3 in cups in water till they sink. Then ill toss em in to paper towels till they pop. Once I see a tiny Tap root Ill place them into Root Riot Cubes, upside down like @SweetSue suggested, and into Hempy Solo Cups

Now SH is an Auto so she may go Into her Forever Home, a 3gal bucket. She will be using FF Trio Nutes and Calmag same as the Current Autos just to make it easier for that Group

The 2 Photos will be using Osmo+ Nutes. Think Ill drop a few balls into the Bottom of the Solo to start with, like 3 or 4.

I really dont have the Room, but figure in a few Weeks I will


Also today is Big Girls Water day. Gunna check on Seymour and see if she is Ready to Harvest. She is by FAR the largest af all the original Girls, she should be, she was the 1st Transplanted and she went into a 5gal Pot, I was short of Soil so the rest went into 3gal. She is the CBDutch Treat and I am so surprised at how Much I love this smoke. Dense and sweet buds, cant wait to test the DT as well

Got a text, my TEST KIT is being delivered today... SAWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT


Let the Games Begin

Re: Scorpio420's 2 Tent Tango - Dark Devil Auto - WW Auto - GSC Auto & Others In Soil

Test kit landed

Took some edumacation to figure everything out, and a couple emails that where answered almost instantly, now that is great service

The box

And lots of stuffs, I hate those popcorn stuffing

Now for some reading

So the plan. You can do 5 tests per plate. Was thinking 3 flower and 2 oils to start
Both oils are CBDutch treat, one FHO and the other is low n slo dried, not cured, 36hr 170deg oil

The flowers
CBDutch Treat x2, plants harvested about 2 weeks apart
Siberian Haze Auto
I may swap a DDA sample for 1 DT, we shall see tomorrow

It will take some planning, measuring out samples, testing pipette and pump

Should be a fun day , I can't wait, wish me luck

re: Scorpio's Cavalcade Of Horrors With Hempy, Genetics, Perpetual & Much Much More

LOL... well here Goes


The 1st test didnt go so well, but I did figure it would take a test Run, But didnt figure on the Jar being warped..LOL

I did get some results, and can decipher them a bit, sucks the OIL's are the left side and they are all F'd up

So lets Investigate what I did get

This is the finished Plate, Kinda muddled

The Bottom part has ta do with the acids and the Freshness, You can see the Flowers, right 3, are fresh compared to the Oils on the left



If ya look at the two right ones, CBDutch Treat, you can see the THC (bottom Circle) and the CBD (top Circle)

It scales out to about a 8% THC and 4% CBD, but I cant see the other THC's or CBD's which need to be added to the Total, But, Its still a Good Sign..at least it showed CBD in the test, it should be about a 10% cbd and 5% THC... ish




Waiting on emails to get questions answered, more coming soon


P.S.

Already have two emails back, epic Customer Service... Ill get some xtra's when I order more supplies. So far VERY Happy with their Custome Service, and am Thinking I have a good handle on the Testing


RD 2 starting...............................................................................NOW!!

Kinda Tired today..... But trudging on

I have more Plates and stuffs coming from Cannalytics Supply, Rick has been a great help

The Oil Tests have been a Challenge. Im gunna try and do a couple tests today

re: Scorpio's Cavalcade Of Horrors With Hempy, Genetics, Perpetual & Much Much More

Its Hempy Hemp water day

Maybe add some Osmo+ to my new Solo Hempies, hoping the girls show themselves today

Another round of THC/CBD Testing

Harvest of my last CBDutch Treat Seymore, should be my biggest harvest to date

Maybe some Enchilada Casserole, Adult Play Time



On a side Note, I have some Pregnant Girls

Candida is With Child
Devil Cream Auto is as well
Green Doc, well cant tell yet, she is still developing Buds. I may hit her again with Pollen next Water Day


Fun Fun Fun

re: Scorpio's Cavalcade Of Horrors With Hempy, Genetics, Perpetual & Much Much More

Congrats on the pregnant girls Scorpio!

So question for you. What would you list as your 'lessons learned' from you experience with the test kit? What advice would you give to anyone else getting ready to buy and use that kit?

 

[Van Stank]

re: Scorpio's Cavalcade Of Horrors With Hempy, Genetics, Perpetual & Much Much More

And one other question......where are you storing your pollen?

And one other question......where are you storing your pollen?

Lets Talk Pollen 1st... I keep Cheech's pollen in some Acrylic (I think) test tubes I got off Amazon. Ill tap the Pollen onto a mirror, scrape it up and place in the Tube. Then I put em in the Freezer. I did a Test run with just flower, and no moister at all accrued in the Tubes. I have soooooooooo Much pollen now and Cheech is still knocking it out...Not sure Ill even need the clones I have of him


The Cannalytics Test Kit

I like the Kit, but it does take some trial and error a Bit.

• 1. My Jar was warped, not level, so my 1st run all tilted to the side. So be sure and check level on yer jar. Rick said he had never heard that before and is sending me another one
• 2. The Oil has been a Challenge. Today Ill try it in a couple ways. No heat on the sample drop, see if it dosent run so much as it develops. A smaller sample drop, like above, see if it helps
• 3. The Angle of the plate in the Developing jar is KEY. I used a Mason Jar, Similar to provided Jar, but the angle of the Plate was way off. The results didnt fit on the plate, meaning they wicked off the top of the plate. I made a Little Cardboard 30deg cutout to use to be sure the angle is correct
• 4. Dont get the Pro Kit, the tools are nicer, but not really needed. Save that $50 and get more Plates. I think Ill have plenty of fluid to do 5 or more plates

The Customer service as been great, seriously he answers email in like 5min. That to me is huge. The Manual is a bit vague, and I hope to help him add some key Info to it. I know there is more STuff to add to my list above so when I do my testing again Ill edit it



Gunna test some oil and the CBDutch Treat today. Ill have more Plates landing this weekend

Gunna test some oil and the CBDutch Treat today. Ill have more Plates landing this weekend

After further review... I realized I CANT READ!!!!! or DO MATH

Ok so the Buds at 100mg.. got That, for some STUPID reason for the Oil I had 50ml in my foggy old brain, Im ya.. should be 50mg, was only off by 10x.. ish

They talk about edible testing at 100mg, and Im assuming the Oil is a CCO not Infused Oils. Rick says they dont get great results from CCO's

Ill try 50mg and 100mg of Oil This time

No wander it was like a slippy slide on the pate

Well... all my new supplies from Cannalytics Supply landed Yesterday. Free Stuff and Replacement Jar, again Great Customer service

As you can see above, I've had a few challenges. Some is me being Hard headed and MUST have results...LOL

The test system is pretty Good, but, its not like yer getting a Full Test results like from a Testing Facility. I think the results are good for a grower Like Me who wants to see the Basics of where his plants/buds are based on The expected Genetics and results that breeder has depicted on the strain.

Its does seem to work pretty well on flowers, fresh not fully cured and older dry cured Buds.
Oil's are a challenge. I think it took me till the 8th plate/test to finally get a result

So this is my Final Plate, Plate #8, Now I F'd up 2 plates myself, one was a Bad Angle Test in Jar, One the Corner of the plate Broke when I was heating It, remember its glass...LOL. The Other Plates id say 1/2 had descent results for the Flower but I had not figured out the Oil sampling which I believe now I have, Finally...LOL

Pic1

I did 3 tests yesterday, 1st was the Busted Plate, second was a test of the Angle of the Plate in the Jar, it was a fail. I determined with a level Jar, and a bit extra Compound in the jar, the standard Angle works the best. I placed about 2.4ml of stuffs in the Jar to help it wick up the plate

Lest see what we came up with

Rows as Indicated on this Pic

The area left of Row A was a contaminate, looks like maybe a piece of flower hit the Plate
A = Kilamanjora, Aprox 15-20% THC minimal CBD
B = ACDC, High 15-20% CBD, Minimal THC
C = CBDutch Treat, High CBD/THC, assumed about 15% of Each, No real % Data available
D = FHO Oil, CBDutch Treat, 140gr Flower into 2c Olive Oil

Pic2

As you Can see, there is some Good Info here, and even the Oil looks, well, descent


Based on Pic3 we can determine a few Things. Having this test Plate, using strains I already had a good idea of the THC/CBD levels, really helped to Identify the info I was getting from the Tests

Rows A,B and C all where fresh buds, 100mg, and heated on the plate. I assume heating decarbs the material for the testing. You can do a Cold test to determine other results, I did hot tests to determine THC and CBD levels


In Row A, you can see the Kilamanjaro has a HIGH THC, estimate its at about 15-17% and no noticeable CBD. That said, if you look at the orange Arrow it shows a decent amount of CBG(top Orange) and CBC(bottom Red). Not sure if this is an anomaly or is a normal result. In both Row B and C the same CBG/CBC show less than the Kilimanjaro

In Row B, you can see the High CBD in the top Orange Circle and a very light red below of THC. This is exactly as would be expected from the Strain since hardly any noticeable HIGH is achieved from ACDC

In Row C, the results here are typical with what I had seen in previous successful results. A Good THC Level, Id say in the 10-15% range and a Good CBD level of around 8%. This is consistent with the smoking of CBDutch Treat, more of a High than ACDC but much less than the Kilimanjaro or other low to no CBD strains.

In Row D, here is where the System dosent really do a very good Job. Tested 45-50mg of oil, no heating of the oil. This, by far, is the best results of the Oil yet. Now they say by using a 1ul sample of oil's, 2ul used in the Flower tests, that since an oil is concentrated that a 4x or 5x factor is needed to actually determine the Results. So assume that spot is 4x as big...LOL.
You can see a decent % of THC, and a presence of CBD halo'd in the top of the result.

Pic3

All in all its a decent testing system for Flower, it will work for Oil, but not sure I can get a realistic comparison of FHO vs standard 36hr Infusion.

The Lower Parts show the Acids, still Not sure what that means, and Oxidation or Age and Freshness of the sample

It Appears the flower sample are fairly Fresh, well the CBDutch Treat is for sure, the ACDC looks the oldest, and is, and Kilimanjaro seemed pretty fresh as well. Nothings shows up for the Oil as you can see

Thank you, for the curious way you run through life. HAD to have a result! Haha! Sounds so much like me when I get headstrong. Lol!

re: Scorpio's Cavalcade Of Horrors With Hempy, Genetics, Perpetual & Much Much More

Question: will you be purchasing any more plates?

 

[Lady Antheia]

re: Scorpio's Cavalcade Of Horrors With Hempy, Genetics, Perpetual & Much Much More

Great info! Do you have plans to try a different testing method for oils?

 

[Chris Scorpio]

re: Scorpio's Cavalcade Of Horrors With Hempy, Genetics, Perpetual & Much Much More

Question: will you be purchasing any more plates?

I still have 7 more Plates and LOTS of the Liquid.

Ill for sure do more tests. I HAVE to get Oil results..LOL

I have 4 types of Oil
Kilimanjaro
GDP
CBDutch Treat FHO and 36hr

So may try those soon, maybe today

Van was looking at the Kit, so maybe i have worked out the kinks for him
