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?

It's neither vaping nor cooking - it's decarbing! :)

The THC doesn't vaporize until about 350* F, which is why you decarb at a lower temp (so you don't lose the THC!). Decarbing happens automatically when you smoke or vape from the heat source. It will help the THC become more readily available to the human body so will help maximize the effects when consuming edibles.

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! :)

Hey Mr. Krip! Nice to have you stop by!
Yea, I will be using the honey oil recipe on this site... Uses everclear and an electric distilling machine :)
I have no intention of using butane. I would rather use a solvent that is for human consumption. Personal preference! Make sure not to use PVC! It will contaminate your product.

'ello! Yes, heating removes the carbon dioxide off the THCA... Making it into a psychoactive form of THC... This takes place natually during curing. Doing this is for edibles or tinctures.. Not smoking or vaping.

As for... Anti cancer... Cannabis is known to help, but i wouldnt make claims like that. Many do, but hey..There are many helpful terpenoids in our lovely buds... Who knows which truly helps more? maybe one that degrades at low temperature? Maybe one that isnt soluble in fats? Who knows! Thats why i like multiple methods of medicating... Id say something more like hash pills or honey oil orally would be appropriate for a cancer patient. .. Getting alot of cannabinoids in the system...

Electric distilling machine? Woah.

I was wondering about a tincture... you just take shots of it? Sips?
MMM honey oil.!!!

Not shots! Its much less effective... And that would be a wasteful quanity.

Tinctures are taken sublingually (sp?).. So a dropper full or two under the tongue.. I hold it for a couple min. Usually... Less if it comes out bad tasting, however I am much better at making it now... Well, alcohol tinctures. Once there is enough Ill start fooling with other solvents like propylene glycol and glycerol.

It really shocks me there isnt more tinctures in the medical community. They are great for a quick accurate dosing, kicks in fairly quick, and most importantly... Easier/ more comfortable than smoking, vaping, and even edibles if your having bad enough nausea.. At least thats my experience...

Hey you, I'll be stopping by your journal soon... Gotta see whats up with the Lemon Skunk!
 
QueenTokelove said:
the lemon skunk is :rip: But I have started to germ blackjack, bcn diesel, white widow and church!!!!
Click to expand...

:rip: oh no!

However... Your new line up strikes my fancy more! I'm growing a parent strain to your BCN Diesel.. NYC Diesel! I have tried it, and it is good smoke! Looks like that and the Black Jack both have some Black Domina in them... Never tried that one, but I've heard raving reviews.

Woohoo! I know you will like the Church! Remember, she is a beast! tall, wide... Wonderful! But even the cuttings get decent side branching.. I'm very happy with my cutting of it, though I may be losing the Pineapple Express cutting.. Oh well, it happens.

You will do great! I'm sure of it. I'll be there once you make a new journal! :)
 
I told omm i bet im done and gone by the time thsea shows up
LOL

Wow, that little? Nice. That reminds me... a friend of mine's mom made tinctures for a living out of 100 proof vodka. I'll have to ask her about her process and share.

100 proof vodka is only 50% alchohol tho
you want a higher alchohol content

That would be more considered "Green Dragon" I would think at that proof... Which is alcohol with some cannabis... We want the ratio flipped on its head!! ;)

The stronger/more pure your solvent the better. I've tried tinctures made at lower proofs.. And they were okay.. But using the highest you can is the best. Some people dilute after, as the alcohol can give a burning sensation.. I do not. Everlear also evaporates off faster than 50%... And that is the last step of tincture! Evaporate to taste.

Right on!
I've told OMM about this, but I'd love to get one of those.. Laboratory heater/ stirrers... Fo da tinc-cha makin'

Oh! I've chopped the PE... :) Three big colas! And a bit of a cluster-funk of lil' buds. I really couldn't be happier, it came out good.

To replace her... I've put of the testSoG... I might scrap it. It will work, but I think this scale is to small... Not only that, but one of the tops got ripped! So there will probably be root rot! :) Good times.

What to put out then.... Hm.. .Blue Mammoth wont be ready for a bit... I could put out the Dr. G, and grow out the cutting to be gigantic... Since Mommy had issues of not being watered... Hm...

Decisions decisions! Time to think.
 
hope that is everyones problems are what to grow next:cheertwo:
