really pretty neat, but if the right-hand cylinder is the butane storage canister, i would question if there is enough solvent capacity to fully and completely wash the resin content from the flower charge.

Wrong, wrong, wrong - quit repeating those fairy tales. Although i'm sure people have dipped bud in any numbers of substances and called it "Thai Stick", the real deal was just really, really intense bud packaged on a stem. At that time (mid 70's), real Thai was so far above the level of most...

I assume it is the last vestiges of their solvent of choice. some use butane, some alchol, they use the natural terpene limone. Can't really bitch about that...

Well, the cindy doesn't look like original Brothers Grimm, so you can't expect the fast finish you read in the history books. By the looks of the pistil development i would guess another three weeks, if you're looking for maximum density/strength. Funny thing is, the SD looks a little ahead of...

Genetics would not be the best place to economize...

Studies have shown that smoking and vaporizing are not intense or of long enough duration to decarboxylate the majority of the thca within the material. That means a fair amount of what we imbibe is useless and wasted. Decarbing flowers detracts from the sensory appeal and opens the active...

Graywolf - i always's thought one of the (unspoken) advantages of your oft-mentioned use of a hot OIL bath when purging bho was the fact that the oil contributed no environmental water vapor to inhibit the release of any trapped moisture in the hash oil. I would guess this factor would be...

Seems like this thread is mostly spam juice, all the one post wonder members with the same pro's and con's...

I commonly see the metaphor "building" a soil, but rarely see much attention made about the "structure" of a soil. A plants roots traverse a scaffolding that is the texture of the substrate that you construct, the innate qualities you provide here can be as important as any basic nutrient.

Bravo Seamaiden, for standing up to the misinformed "chicken littles" that have the same zero tolerance intolerance of our oppressors. It's a natural product, without a pharmaceutical facility, or inordinate chemical control, you cannot exclude mother nature from the equation. That's common...

I am allergic to the hard-sell, so i stick with old reliable General Hydroponics. Any good grower will tell you that it's not the nutes...

Absolutely, olive oil is the best kitchen cabinet solution as the mono saturated oils are aggressive dissolvers of plant resins. A further tip is to keep your gripping hand (the one without the scissors) slightly moistened with oil while working - not much will stick to your fingers.

thinking in terms of "mode of failure" the extracting column looks somewhat precarious perched up on top of that valve, would a bump or shock tend to snap the top off of the rig?

Reality-based growers insist that grow shops profit from real products, rather than richen themselves off of snake oils and gullibility..

One quote from the story you won't ever see from the government rebuttal, "In something of a twist, the researchers found that compared to nonsmokers, marijuana users performed slightly better on the lung function test, though the improvement was minuscule." Link to the news story...

We call that attitude "whistling past the grave yard". This information broke last summer, there are many threads out there with links to scientific papers associated with agricultural use that answer all of your questions. The smart people who read those study's are the ones who forced these...

In that case, keep your best buds (cola/apical tips) out of the DANGER ZONE, that being the area closer than 18 inches. The danger zone is not just the area of higher temps or excessive lux - it is the zone of infrared penetration that boils off your terpenes, oils, and thc. There goes your...

read the first paragraph, interesting, so i read the second, hmmm, third paragraph - pop! spidey sense! i smells a salesman! Fourth paragraph reads like a late nite commercial, minus the english accent... Can't wait to see how much the snake oil costs!

Just a few observations... 95% of ALL small business's fail in the first five years, we aren't any different. Legalization is coming, medical will go to the pharmacy's in one form or another (expensive), walmart will sell generic six-pack pre-rolls in some form of equivalency to alcohol...

and that's the kinda misplaced pride that can drive a new homogenization of cannabis strains as growers select exclusively for high raw THC percentages. Testing has already shown that it's not the highest test results that satisfy the soul, in fact many "elites" test in the high teens. If your...
