Drinking from a Cattle Trough

Tinkering around the shop:
So I had some older flower and some time and some questions that roll around from time to time. First off, candle warmers, how hot do they get as 190 or above I’m good. Second, I’ve had this bottle for a spell and never used it.
So I decarbed 40 grams and ground it up then covered it in oil. Candle warmers got surprisingly hot so the mixture sat for 24 hours. Straining was as much a test of a theory, fill a 37 micron press bag with the mixture and squeeze it out with a 150 ml syringe. Worked great, so well I did a final rinse with the press bag but used it in reverse.
Answered a lot of questions and opens the door for inexpensive equipment to process with all be it small quantities

Thats awesome! So is that ready to go into a vape with that consistency or would you add more glycerin?

Vape ready from a $20 piece of equipment. Oh yeah, remember the equipment gasplease bought for a few hundred to turn his rosin into a liquid? This will accomplish the same thing, in theory. I’ll give a whirl soon

Apples and Bananas- The other half of my top 2. She doesn’t set records in the yield department but she holds her own.

Wow, you've got this process down to a science. Unless you've not shared your disasters like I have.
Question about the glycerine, what does it taste like, I've never used it. Also, does it dissolve the trics as well as oil or alcohol?

vegetable glycerin isn’t edible. It’s the liquid you see in carts for vaping. There’s a few different ways to make carts and this isn’t the best but it’s very inexpensive and refillable carts start at a couple bucks

Disasters, geeze where do I start…good thing is I learned from most of em and they don’t happen as often these days…… bull shit, I overfill overflow at least once a week

Yours and mine both. Mailed a simple envelope, 14 days to a buddy. Alternative is unreasonably expensive, mailed a box out to same buddy, $46 and it was no bigger than a shoe box.

Clone day- one more 24 day cycle should put flower on a 12 week flower cycle. Not the most robust batch but time will tell





And on the topic of cloning I hit up the grow store while I was in the big city. They’ve got some cool stuff out there!

So germinated this plant couple few weeks ago. It got caught up in the peat somehow and went horizontal. I dug her out at day 6 and she’s done fine since, but she’s a freak like me!
4 cot leaves
6 single blades
12 3 blades
I’ve never topped, just watched. Her time is up but worth a pic

That " Time is up " statement...... + =

Poor lil nice looking plant!!

The single or tri-leaves are kinda confusing......

My gdp has some tri-leaves, but looks great other than that....

Revegges do the single and tri-leaves, but it ain't happening here, nor do I believe there....

Maybe a 🕳 is calling for me....

The Wife’s- there will be flowers this time next week
Cloner- 3 days cut and for the most part they seem happy
Veg- on cruise control for the moment
Lemon tree - 3 days flower, I didn’t think it was possible but I might have too many bud sites
Plum crazy- 4 weeks flower

Pure Michigan- 8 weeks flower. The lean is pronounced but at 2 gallons per day intake I’m going to let her ride
