Thanks for the replies. The cancer thread was for someone close to me that I'm caring for. I've now got hold of quality 2:1 CBD:THC oil for them and we're all surprised to say that within a week there's been a huge difference in energy, joyfulness & vitality. I chose the high CBD as they're...

Does anyone have any experience with the impact of a CBD rich strain on muscle spasticity, versus using a pure CBD oil. I'm trying to understand if having a small percentage of THC potentiates the CBD to help counteract muscle spasms, and also possibility anxiety. I've currently seen CBD:THC...

Thanks @420circuit thats very useful. So roughly an ounce of bud a week. Can I just use one ounce initially and extract the oil using Butane, will that work? If the patient can handle the RSO oil then I can produce more. Thanks

Unfortunately it's inoperable cancer, it's widely spread on the liver. Oncologist has only given Chemo a 50% chance, and the maximum prognosis even with chemo being successful is 12 months. Thus the conventional route is not a viable option. One option I have is to secure a couple of...

Thanks guys, @CelticEBE I might take you up on your offer. I'm first going to see if its possible to get the oil in Colorado or Washington, as it seems to be legal there for Europeans too.

Thanks, it's metastatic Liver with unknown primary.

I'm helping a family member to find alternative cancer treatment, and we're looking for a good quality Cannabis oil suitable for cancer. Some questions: would it have to be an oil high in CBD, as I was looking at Tetra Pure Gold which is only 1% CBD. Additionally, we're coming over from...

You mean it just dissolves ? That would be pretty good Okay, so I've been slow simmering for about 24 hours now, water to butter ratio has varied from 4:1 to 1:1, or less as waters evaporated. It's mostly been on a very low heat, below boiling, with a couple of hours at boiling. It should be...

Sedating is good. Very good. I have chronic anxiety, and MS like symptoms. So the stronger the better.

I was worried that adding butter would mean the weed would not come into contact with the butter and instead remain steeped in water. However, I've just added some water. Do longer cooking times mean stronger canna butter ?

Nope :) Only butter and weed, no water. But the pot is then placed in another pot which contains only water. Essentially a double boiler. Yeah I would have used more weed but I'm running out :( and can't grow any for some time. So looking at the best extraction method.

This is an experiment. In a tiny ceramic pot, I mixed a couple of grams of a sativa strain in some butter, no water added. Then placed inside a electric crockpot which is filled with water. I'm thinking of leaving this for 24 hours or longer, on a low heat. Your thoughts ?

HI Cap, yes you're right if I'm doing tree''s in coco hydro then thats way too many plants. I'm still in soil mode. Maybe this time round they'll be small tree's, as I have a bunch of strains that I want to grow out from seed, and flower together. So, yes, I don't know how the strains will...

It's just one layer, with two bulbs stacked. I've done this in soil very crudely in my last grow using a 600watt and a 250watt stacked. But yes two 1000w will create a lot of heat. I'll give it a go and then remove one bulb if needed. Four feet in diameter sounds good. That's a good...

This is my first hydro grow. In coco. About 15 plants. Two vertical 1000kw lights in the centre of a circle. The circle will be trellis. On the trellis I want to espalier flat the plants, as opposed to bushy shrub affairs. They'll be Indica dom strains in coco. I'm guessing for an indica dom...
