SweetSue's Perpetual 2.0 - The Transition To Doc Bud's HBB Kit

Sue

The DDA bongs were just right.

I ate a cap on the way home and feel quite relaxed now.

I need a pick me up and did a few hits of Panama Haze to go scrog my Glueberry.

Here is a link to a guy that does vertical grow I was telling you about.
Vertical grow with screens - 400W - Blumats

I'm glad you enjoyed the DDA Hash Hound. That harvest was one of my finest, and it was sweet to share with you. So one capsule hits you nice? Try two next time. Lol!

Thanks for the link. What an interesting grow. Ranger did a verticle grow year before last, but he didn't nail it the way GR did. The man has it pretty much down to a science.
 
Ah migraines, they have plagued my existence for the better part of my life. Fortunately with cannabis I can replace the ulcer inducing painkillers. For me the pain starts somewhere in the back of my eye, I only get blurry vision when closing my eyes. Sometimes they brought me to tears before I ever started treating myself with our favorite miracle plant. One weird thing is, I can take as many painkillers as I want, and it will still hurt no matter what, if I go to sleep I will wake up in pain. Sad thing is I never got a diagnosis after many extensive tests so I never had a prescription painkiller, still wouldn't even want one, but can say for sure, strains with a cbd % have helped better my quality of life.
:circle-of-love:

Have you tried an infused oil in capsules yet daTenshi? It was amazing how quickly my daughter's migraines fell to the side after she started taking 4 capsules a day. I have her up to 8 a day now, but that's because she put on so much weight she needed a larger dose. Getting that consistent cannabinoid presence from the regularly scheduled capsules can be a lifesaver. I still smoke, but it's all recreational. My maintenance meds are all capsules.
 
I havent had it tested, but my goto is Carnival....supposedly higher in THC. Clears the fog and makes everything clear. (thank you Sue) And I know what you mean about the pain...always there unless you take something to knock yourself out...and still there when you wake up. I have tried the gamut of prescription pain killers and Im not fond of any of them.

Good to hear mouser. That Carnival is a wonder, isn't it? I have my choice of some fine sativas, and most often it's Carnival I reach for. The high is extraordinary, clear-headed with levels of creativity swirling in and out, and no crash afterwards. I never really come down. I just have this sense that it's time for another hit, and it shoots me right back up to the stratosphere. Carnival and DDA are still my favorites.

Ooooo.... I need to drop another Candy Cane seed. Wonder if this one will be an auto or a photo? :hmmm: No way of knowing until it gets to about a month. This batch of seeds was very inconsistent. I may do this one 12/12 too. It's the daughter's favorite. Need to keep a steady flow. :cheesygrinsmiley:

I haven't yet tried Carnival, but after seeing how amazing it grows it will for sure be on my next shopping list. I am slowly transitioning from auto's to playing around with photoperiods, takes a little adjustment. This year is the 1st year I ever had tried cloning, and it's been great to keep a good strain around for more then one grow.
:cheertwo:

You will love Carnival. :battingeyelashes: I was so intimidated about learning cloning, and now I do it as though it's the most natural thing in the world. It's wonderful to keep the same genetic line going as you grow more and more famaliar with the strain traits. I'm learning so much this year.
 
Great evening to you Ms Sue :-)

Just a quick stop and go to say hello and share the love.

Awww.... I always feel so special that you'd stop Arctic. :hugs: :Love: Almost caught you in real time. :battingeyelashes:

Things are well in the far North? My best to your beloved. :hugs: :Love: I fell asleep earlier and threw my time sense off again. Lol! Been watching the Sacred Plant Webinar on common lies and misconceptions around cannabis. Anybody else notice how politicians throw out "We don't want anyone smoking their medicine" and then never allow anyone to point out that we don't either? It sent me to thinking, so I decided to drop those thoughts here in the middle of the night.

Pharma drugs target specific symptoms. They usually gain control by overwhelming the system in some way. Although this may solve the symptom it also usually causes enough of an imbalance of something the body would have created on its own if it were in proper balance to "surprise " you with a side effect. One that requires another drug, that likely causes another side effect.

How nice to work with a plant where the potential strain-related side effects are the munchies with indicas or the appetite depression found with many sativas. Or you'll either wake up or fall asleep, depending on the percentage of myrcene found in your cannabis. I call these benefits.

Cannabis supplies cannabinoids, flavonoids, and terpenes, along with God only knows what, systemically. The body takes what it needs from what's available. If we're attentive and informed we can supply the components needed by carefully choosing the strains and the methods of extraction and delivery.

This is what we do in our virtual neighborhood, and we do it all day every day. Made me kinda proud to be part of the shifting of the paradigm.

I wanna know who she thinks gave birth to the other half.

Made the oil once, and baked an awesome cake with it, can't say it's my thing right now, I enjoy too much rolling and smoking one with my beloved :laughtwo: .. Not throwing the idea out in the future, it's a different experience then just smoking, but there's something about tasting that amazing cannabis flavor that just draws me in.

I can't think of any real reason to stop smoking. :cheesygrinsmiley: I don't see me ever walking away from the bong. Lol! The steady dosing of cannabinoids achieved with capsules gives you a baseline to work from so you smoke less and support the ECS more.

I'm still awake, and watching more of the webinar. They're discussing dosing and she has this viewpoint that valid to a point, that daily use of cannabis by a healthy individual may be detrimental to the ECS. She's a nurse with an expert level understanding of the ECS, and I understand the science behind this statement. I share this same advice frequently. Her response included the words "Anything can be taken to extreme." Laughing out loud I thought to myself "How do you factor in someone like me?" I'm reasonably healthy and continuously euphoric. Cannabis fires up my energy levels and my creative expression. I don't feel like I'm living dangerously. :laughtwo: Just get the plant off the schedule and let people explore.

Somewhere along the way she mentioned sprouting cannabis seeds as a food source and I thought of all the bag seed
I've tossed over the years. Lol! Interesting thought though, if I had some outdoor beauties that got pollinated. Someday.

Lights just went out in the tiny closet. Time to force myself back to bed. The Chem Dawg is beginning to kick me that way. Thank you Hash Hound. :hugs:

Goodnight moon :Love:
 
Good morning everyone:Love:

Up 'till 4, but at least I got 5 hours sleep from there, so I'll be functional. :laughtwo: I finished listening to the rest of the webinar on cannabis lies and misconceptions with Mary Lynn Mathre, founder of Patients Out Of Time. A couple interesting facts to drop on you for grins.

In order for a drug to qualify for schedule 1 listing it must be dangerous. The way they calculate danger is by the L50, a determination of what dose will kill off half the population taking it. Obviously, these tests weren't done on humans, but on poor mice and then the data extrapolated to fit human populations. Without going into the differences between mouse and human physiology, what they discovered was that you could indeed die from cannabis if you either

* ingested 20,000 to 40,000 times the recommended dose or

* consumed 15,000 pounds of cannabis in 15 minutes time.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

The late Dr. McBay, chief toxicologist at UVA once said

"I think the only way a person could be killed by cannabis is if a bale fell out of a plane and hit them on the head."

I call that one safe holistic medication. Lol!

Mary Lynn once asked the chief toxicologist at the UVA at the time she was employed there to track down a comparison of the L50 doses for opioids and other commonly prescribed drugs and cannabis. What she found was a study of mice that were given injections of THC and the solvent used to extract the oils, while the control mice were given injections of the solvent (ethanol) alone. The control mice died first.

Yep, one mighty helpful healing plant we work with.

Think I'll listen to that webinar a few more times today and take some notes. It amazed me how many times I had the answer to the question before Mary Lynn began her response, and the number of times also that I understood more than the answer. All this study I dedicate myself to is paying off. :battingeyelashes: :green_heart:

I'm off to a joyful start today. How 'bout you? :cheesygrinsmiley: It's as simple as a mind shift. Find a happier thought and go there instead. Ignore the thing that frustrates you for just a moment and find a way to laugh instead. The answers you seek won't come in a moment of anger or frustration. They'll come when you play. So play hard my friends, and laugh strong and heartily.


Dropped a new Candy Cane seed today.

The one in flower is struggling this morning. The bedroom heats up in the morning and I've been kicking the air on as soon as I wake up. Given my late night I slept until after 9 AM and by then this tent had reached 88 degrees, while the one next to it had only hit 82. I'll have to figure out a way to keep that from happening again. :straightface: It's back down to 81 now but you can see how the leaves are curling. I'm assuming from the heat. Not surprisingly, she doesn't like the heat. I'd complain too.

Getting the environment under stable control is a never ending balancing act, isn't it?

Time for a wake 'n bake. :slide:
Pigeons420 wanted to livestream his wake n bake upcoming saturday, do you know if it's cancelled or if he is still going? I also bought a Pigeons420 shirt because I just had to.

I'm waiting for the blue shirt. I don't normally buy black. I can't wait to get mine. :slide: As far as I know it's still slated to be live. Have you joined him at YouNow? That's more spontaneous, but I delight in being able to talk to him in real time. Of course, I can call him anytime I want. Lol!

That's pretty nice!! You two should visit eachother. Ideally with me ofcourse! I would love to meet you and Pigeons and some other nice people. But well, I don't really have the money for that now. Maybe if I sell some of my herbs!

I caught a fever again... ugh, it's annoying but luckily I don't have it that long most of the time just 1 or 2 days but then a few weeks later I get it again for a few days. Well, I will survive and I guess that's the most important.

Make some infused oils and get yourself on a capsule regimen. Stop playing around with this rik. The function of the ECS is to balance the immune system with the central nervous system. Your immune system is obviously compromised in some way, and the smartest way to approach it is with a regular dose of cannabinoids. We believe CBD is the primary component when dealing with the immune system, but there's a necessity to include THC. Together the components compliment each other and improve the therapeutic effects.

It doesn't take much to make an oil. Any start is a good one. My daughter used to have that happen, pretty continuiously. Never did figure out what caused it. She hasn't had but one occurance in the last year since she started taking her cannabinoids four times a day. She also no longer has to deal with the unending sinus infection. Obviously her immune response has improved, and we chalk it up to her regimen.

Relief is possible rik. It's not necessary to continue to suffer like this. Think of the oils as healing potential instead of thinking of the plant as a way to unwind, to get immediate symptom relief, or simply to enjoy a euphoric experience. Cannabis can become a daily part of your nutritional plan as simply as juicing, adding canna butter or oils to regularly consumed foods, or taking capsules of oils.

Every dose of cannabis is being used by the body in some way to heal. That's what the ECS does, it heals you by signaling. Cannabinoids don't attach to healthy cells, they attach to compromised cells in an attempt to regulate cellular function back into a homeostatic state. Keeping a consistent cannabinoid presence can make a profound difference.

And it doesn't take much at all to get the ECS back on line. Relief is usually early onset. Healing begins immediately. Micro-dosing is gaining in popularity because it works. Any cannabinoids in are a good thing. A steady supply feels like an intelligent approach.

Yeah I really need to make that oil. Especially now my buds from the industrial plants are as good as dry. I still do have some oil that I bought to try out when I head migrains and those did stop and did not came back. That oil isn't really potent or from figh quality but there is 3.5% CBD in there so it is enough until I nake oil fron the industrial plants. I'll start tomorrow morning with the 3.5% CBD oil, 6 to 10 drops in my coffee always worked quiet well.
 
I just ordered capsules, sunflower lecithin, pipettes and capsule holder. Sometimes next week I'll make some infused oil.

So here's my dilemma. I'm going to use all buds. Would you decarb before or after infusion?

If you use the fresh harvest method for oil, the decarb happens while you are making the oil. No extra step required. :blushsmile:

If your doing fresh harvest you don't decarb. If it's dried buds Jim then yes, you need to decarb before infusing.

High Lady A. I have a boat load of cured buds and just jarred up 4 more quarts. I won't have any fresh harvest until year end.

Thanks girl.....exactly what I was thinking. I'll look thoroughly through your other threads or your blog for a recipe of infused oil.

Why with dry buds?

If you do the same process should it not decarb if you bring it to that temp?

Or is it a different process with dry buds?

I agree. It shouldn't really make a difference as long as time and temperature stay within range. I've always used this chart as my guide and I'm fond of the 252o F curve.

The Dutch proved that 110 minutes at 110 degrees C did the best job of converting THCa to THC Jim. I can save you the trouble of searching for a recipe. My most potent recipe is 100 grams of bud to 500 ml of extra virgin olive oil, organic if you're so inclined (but strongly encouraged). I assumed you preferred potent. :battingeyelashes:

In my opinion the agitation is as important as the heat, which is why I usually go for the 36-hours in the oven at the lowest setting, shaking every time you think of it. You can get by with 24 hours, but I never have. The MB2 does an excellent job of making oil, if you have one. There are any number of methods out there using crock pots.

I'm pleased as punch that you'll be starting capsules Jim. :kisstwo:
