THsea Grows Indoors Soil

SASoG is off and running ! Looking good too! :thumb:

I quick dried a little of the Church.........right now she is all head high and lasts quite long. Haven't tried Lucy yet. :ganjamon:

THere is one going on right now....look for NEWSDOGGY333.

I tested lucy.....and.....she is LUCY! :Love::Love::Love:
Whoa! Three posts in a row! :) Hehe! Gotta love that Church! Oh yea! You know, a lot of the reviews say shes a good mixture of head and body... But they claim it leans more heady than I remember... I remember.. couch lock! :)

And Lucy! Woohoo! Glad shes as you like her. Lets hope a good amount of our current grows make it to a nice cure! ;)

Nice, LUCY Very nice... I gotta git-me-sum!
Oh yea! It's pretty smooth smoke. After a nice cure, shes often just as lemony/ citrusy as lemon skunk!

I couldn't find anything under newsdoggy333... here or on "the google" :-(
Phew! now I don't have to look! ;)

Watered my outdoor girls good... In about an hour or two I'll take some pictures of that shindig. Kona Coffee #3 is now the tallest plant out there... Over 3 feet tall for sure.
 
Hey guys! pictures will be up in... Well, sometime tonight! :)
They have already been taken.. Just picking the ones I want, and trying to get a little medicated.

I was looking at my The Church... I think how the buds are now (a month from maturity) is how the finished Dr.G should be like. Light, airy... Haha, cant wait to see how Dr.G's flowers look.

So... I'll be back to post pictures and mosey around the site.
 
Hey SurfBuddy!

My Bad......here is the link to the Journal I was talking about!

No worries OMM, actually I'm already subbed to that one... along with too many others! LOL. I guess I need to re-read where he switches over.
 
aww did you go to sleep?
i was looking forward to those pics
its about bedtime now eyes wanna shut yawn..........................
 
Thsea, I was wondering how you make your butter and other edibles? We just take all the lower buds, trimmings,(minus big fan leafs), throw them into a stock pot with water and butter, bring to a boil, slow simmer for a couple of hours. Then the fun, while the mix is still f$$kin hotter than you no what, strain through several layers of cheese cloth into tapered containers,(bigger at top than the bottom for easy removal), then with double or triple layers of gloves, wring out the material in the cheese cloth. Put said containers in fridge until all the butter rises to the top and is solidified. After that pull all of the butter out, put into a sauce pan and melt down to combine all so as to have the same potency. I think the ratio of trim to butter was, half lb. trim to a one lb. butter, but that could change if we had bad bud in there too:(spider mite bud, a little mold, undeveloped bud and morph bud), but nothing without crystal. Was just curios how others do it, keep on keepin em green,:peace: ​out.

PS: A bamboo stick right down the middle to tie you plant off to will hold it in any wind, its better than finding your plant laying on its side. LOL

I had a feeling that was who you were talking about... :) We've talked about him quite a bit! He's a great grower.

:) sweet!

Yea, I went to sleep instead... Uploading the pics now. Up in a second!

I did enough silica, and my plants are in a nice corner that blocks our really powerful gusts... ;) But that is a good suggestion! Hopefully I will be in the back later, they may need staking then... Less to obstruct them from it.

You know buddy, I'm gonna post these pictures... Smoke a joint, then I'll post my semi-new ritual for cannabis cooking. I'm still an amateur... But maybe someone will learn from the mistakes! :) Good question! Finally something I can answer and not ask the big boys of the site for help! ;)
 
Okay... So! The outdoor gals..

Okay! smokemifugotm, my process is simple... And while I'll be modifying it, we will stick to what I've done and think worked best.

First you has your buds (trim, as long as its sugar leaf!) or whatever... And you put it in a dish that can be baked. Pre-heat your oven to 220 degrees Fahrenheit. Cover the dish loosely with foil. Let cook for ~20 minutes. Try not to go over time..

When your done, if making budder, melt the butter! I do a makeshift double broiler with a pan filled with water and a pot ontop of some small pebbles/rocks.. The idea is to break contact with the pot, only letting the boiling water heat it... This takes the longest I think. I do not add water to the butter in this method.

If you are careful and attentive, you can also put your pot directly on the burner... Add water, or maybe some oil (oil will effect the consistency of your product obviously... So if you like solid butter sticks dont do it???)...These will help you not burn the butter, but you can go hotter, cooking in the goodness faster... If you add water to it, dont be shy about adding a good amount... After your done cooking let it cool and pour into a freezable container (strain if using trim or don't want roughage)..Put in the freezer!. The budder will solidify over the water before the water freezes.. Take out of the freezer, jab two little holes and drain the water out... Now you has budder and can get baked with baking.

Oh, and for infusing cream, I do the same decarboxylation process before hand... I cook directly on stove, add more "watery" 2% milk or a little water to keep it from burning, but usually cook directly on the burner.. Cause I'm impatient. With cream/ milk you stir a lot or it gets weird. Most of the water evaporates out though..I like the cream better than budder... But cream doesn't have the shelf life... I mix cream with coffee, mixing in a good spoonful of Nesquick because it has soy lecithin which inhibits blah blah enzyme... Makes it kick in a little quicker (supposedly, prolly should get it by itself... but I like chocolate).

Heres some info on decarb'ing..
ScienceDirect.com - International Immunopharmacology - Unheated Cannabis sativa extracts and its major compound THC-acid have potential immuno-modulating properties not mediated by CB1 and CB2 receptor coupled pathways

Decarboxylation - Wikipedia

However! I do not decarb all of what goes into tincture... The reason being, the unaltered shtuff may not get you "high" but they have medical value... Then again, active THC is medical... And I think a lot of us associate the high with the oncoming of medical benefits. I know I do, its a comforting feeling.

Peace out everyone.

Well, hope I was helpful! Happy cooking!
 
I did something similar, but instead of a pan, did it right in a mason jar, in boiling water. Also the trim, etc. is already in a cheesecloth (or a couple layers) so when It's hot you can open the mason jar and jam the cheesecloth with a spoon to smash the stuff out. Then reheat and repeat a few times or a bunch of times. The rest is the same :)
 
Nice looking outside grow area. Looks like it would deter thieves. Great craftmanship!!

All your plants are looking very healthy. That Kona Coffee is a big bush. How many times did you top and fim that plant? I really like the Church too! :thumb:
 
Man they are soooo green! Healthy girls you have there.......Sorry, but the Kona Coffees are my favorites. :cheertwo:

Nice work Buddy! :thumb:
Thank 'ya sensei ;)

rooking good man:thumb:

Cool! You know, the decarb'ing was what I felt most uncomfortable with before... But now I always do it with edibles. The potency increase is significant.

Hey Bud! Church.....has answered our prayers :bravo:
Who's prayers? The pink pray mantis'?

Your Church is lovely OMM.. I was confident she would smoke with a quality matching her demeanor.

Thank you! :high-five: The fence needs a few upgrades and a bit more work put in it.. But I'm more than satisfied with the current structure.

As for the Kona Coffee's... They were horribly strained plants that were in flower that I took the cuttings... So they took forever to root, the to reveg... And when they did, I never needed to top it at all... #1 and 2 became bushes of their own accord. #3 wants to reach for the stars, not take over the earth like its sisters!

I have taken cuttings from 1 and 2, but they were spindly bushes before I started pulling them.

If the Church's buds double is size in the next month... It will be a great success. :) The Kona Coffee's are the only things that may rival her in yield... And I only say that because I don't know how KC's flower.. I don't know anything about it other than its here! ;)
 
Lookin' good out there, bruh!

Thank 'ya sir! I'm trying.

Saturday of next week will be when Pineapple Express is pulled... I think.
The biggest cola will all go to tincture... But it will have to be dried and cured well first... So I'll start a tincture thread at the end of July. I hope to get two small dropper bottles of every strain I do... Any over that will be mixed in a big bottle :) Keeping one small bottle of each in storage will be nice.. A wonderful variety.

Thinking about making oil by quick washing with alcohol... Not sure.. Not with the PE! But in the future maybe... Or I can save popcorn buds for that! :) I think that will do. Just use sugar leaf/ trim in bubble bags, and popcorns fo honey oil.. Hm... Maybe other way around?

Got this container for some kind of skin product.. But it dispenses thicker consistency product... Its essentially the only reason I wana try to make hash oil... It's not my favorite form of hash, so prolly will only do this once... Unless I were to become a care-taker and the patient wanted it... But I don't see that happening at all.

Peace y'all!
 
Looking great, Bother! :bravo:

I've been dying to try some BHO! From everything I've heard, it sounds awesome. I'm planning on making some, at some point, since it looks relatively easy as long as you can keep away from any fire when you're making it! :)
 
I guess I'm confused about decarboxylation... sounds like you heat cannabis sativa and it turns THCa into THC? Or just that it is more effective anti cancer if you heat it first (rather than burn it). Is this vaping or just cooking?
