It has become a nightly thing to watch before bed and we are stoned out of our gourds lol. The paintings just look amazing. When you think he is done, he goes and puts in a cabin and a bunch of happy rocks and happy clouds. He cracks me up.

OMG you will love this camera me thinks. Good get.

Went to the store and played around with it and we liked it. So then went online and got it $100 cheaper and with a ton of stuff. Sure the hell beats out my phone camera. Granted my S7 has a great camera but it sure doesn't beat a Nikon. Beautiful pictures will be coming.

You can chill with us over here in the corner. It may have been my brain smoking as well. That was a lot of knowledge laid down earlier.

How have you been Ween? Haven't seen ya much. :passitleft:

Thanks Canna! I've been well! Had a nice 5 day weekend for the 4th. Been checking in but not posting too much. Gotta check in or will fall pages behind. Im almost as excited to see your next harvest as I am about mine, sparkle is gonna have some serious buds! Keep up the good work! Hope all is well in CannaNisLand.

OK...First, +REPS for some GREAT info! :goodjob:

I will happily defer to your expertise on lighting if you agree to defer to my expertise on math! :rofl:

It seems to me that, when you look at GPW, you have a different definition than I.

I maintain the value of that measurement is in understanding yield/cost. You seem to equate GPW to yield/PAR without considering cost of the PAR.

Is that correct? If so, what would be that value to you of that measurement?

Why would PAR even be a concern if your yields were sufficient (assuming no sacrifice in quality, of course!)?

And, if that was the case, wouldn't you just throw as much PAR at it as you could afford on your electric bill?

Wait! I said "electric bill"....

If cost of electric is going to be your limitation, than perhaps yield/cost is the better way to look at GPW? :cheesygrinsmiley:

Sorry, PAR energy is amount of energy in certain wavelength. Cost is something not on my radar. But now I see your point on cost vs PAR energy. LED'S work great and cost less to run vs HID. Without 500-620nm (lumens area, 110,000 lumens is 1k MH, 145,000 lumens on HPS) MH have more PAR due to less lumens. I've never seen a lumens rating on a LED light.

I've been very impressed with LED grows here. You are changing the mindset that LED'S do not yield. But for the price HID is hard to beat. With the cost of Kwatt here at $0.065. I'm paying about $0.85 a day to run 1050 watt bare bulb with two extraction fans. I'll call it $25 month. But in Ca, where cost is $0.28 to $0.33 per KWH, I'd pay $125 month. That's a great reason to use LED when you only pull ~450 watts from wall. Oregon is an odd state that's very pro cannabis and very low energy costs make it a HID or DE city.

I took a break from journaling for the holiday and missed quite a bit here! I just love how much your garden has grown and the love that is apparent over there. Canna, could you link me to a capsule making tutorial? I could also use a little bit of love in my grow journal, if possible. I sometimes feel like I'm not catching mistakes because nobody calls me out lol.

Keep it green,

High RTK....I know how difficult this is but can you elaborate on maybe the top 3 things you've done that you suspect improved yields? I bet training and trimming is part of it.

:passitleft:

Absolutely topping, training, and trimming are in there, but not having plastic pots sitting on cold concrete was likely the biggest factor (praise be to our Saviour ShiggityFlip). Learning how to water properly was likely the next (build roots in veg, use roots in flower to build nugs).

Honestly, I probably shouldn't even have spoken up, since the light cycle change of two hours over 24 was likely one of the least effective changes in our grow.

Apologies to all.

I used sweet Sue's recipe for the oil. It's

3 Tablespoons of coconut oil
1 Tablespoon of sunflower lecithin
3 grams dry, ground bud.

Her recipe said to put the ingredients in a small heat safe glass cookware. Then put that in the bottom of a croc pot. Cover the glass with the ingredients with another heat safe glass to prevent splatter. Heat on low for 2 hours. Let the oil cool.
Sue suggests to put the oil in the capsules and it's ok to get the bud into the capsules. We bought the capsules on a mazon and used pipettes to get the oil into the capsules.
 
Hey Canna and nismo, just stopping in to say hey! I wish I had as much growing room as you. The girls are looking great! Keep it up!!

Do you have a trimming recipe? How much trim to make oil. Or is there a different setup for trimmings.

Loving the oil capsules! I really want to try making those some day. Looks really fun and I've heard it's s great way to medicate

Yes it is Coloradokid. We're celebrating concentrates. You should join us and make some of your own. :battingeyelashes:

If you're using trim I'd go with twice as much. You want potent, I'm certain of it. :laughtwo:

The recipe I used for oil when I made the pain cream is a better option, IMHO, although it takes longer. Using the same ingredients (undecarbed buds), place it in your oven on the lowest setting and leave it there for 36 hours, shaking frequently at first and then allowing yourself to grow more and more neglectful as time goes on. If you have a pizza stone, set your jar on that while you cook. It equalizes the heat better.

I'm not certain if it's safe to cook the lecithin that long, so I'd probably add that during the final hour of cooking. Then toss it into the fridge overnight to bond everything together, let it come to room temperature, stir well to make sure it's all evenly distributed and fill the capsules.

This made an oil so much more fragrant than my other attempts that it'll probably be my go-to for carrier oil extractions. I assume I retained a much higher amount of terpenes and flavinoids in this batch. Very tasty oil.

I'd guess 5-6 grams of trimmings with the recipe will make some nice hash oil for capsules. Start low, you can always make future batches more to your likings.
 
Good morn Canna and Nis! :passitleft:

Eh, I have zips of trim. I was thinking an oz of trim but oil amount is shaky. I'll see if I can take a 2/1 bud conversation.
