Plumber's Buds

Amazon delivers at night who knew?

Obviously I didn't. 56 ounces of coconut oil for $17.22, $0.31 a fl.oz. I've been paying $1+ an oz.

Making special brownies

2 tablespoons canna butter extra strength and 2 tablespoons canna coconut oil. I also added a third cup of milk chocolate chips. Oh my, yummy sleepy time med? Can't wait to add in some hemp CBD butter. Next batch for sure.

I saved that chart; that's a nice one! The Wife makes salve too with Coconut oil and bees wax and uses it as a rub. It doesn't help me much, but I expect different strains may change that too; She made some Chocolate with an incredibly simple recipe of Cocoa Powder, Maple Syrup, and the Oil that was made from Blue Cheese and Chem D and Motor Breath Trim, and me being a smart ass I called them Wonky Bars LOL. I ate that chocolate like I was PMSing.

Yeah, it helps and did make me really high which is a bonus?

I'm afraid weed will ever only be a mild pain reliever with or without the CBD but this is only the 2nd day and just rolled and torched another.

I do have a half oz of the hemp decarbed awaiting coconut oil, liquid vitamin E and bees wax. I'll make coconut oil caps of just the hemp tomorrow. Bees wax is scheduled to arrive Tuesday and I'll make up some THC & CBD salve. I'm hoping that helps the muscle pain even more.

I stole the above from here:
How to Make Homemade Cannabis Salve (CBD or THC) ~ Homestead and Chill
Good read.

Plumber Daddy - in looking at the chart, THC-A and CBD-A check the boxes for inflammation.
I know everyone thinks I'm joking about eating those leaves, but it looks like adding some raw THC/CBD hybrids into the regimen wouldn't hurt?
I'm still on the hunt for the perfect salad plant, as the concept intrigues me...

Cheech and Chong did that with the Salad thing; All you gotta do now is find a pink tutu for me and I can make some Salad haha.

Si. I agree and will be adding some regular non decarb flower (I was thinking maybe 20% of total). I made some tincture from a male plant last month with no decarb but it wasn't high in CBD like the hemp. Last night I made 50/50 tincture using Dental Assistant auto flower and hemp flower, both decarbed. This weekend I'll make a batch of both reg and hemp non decarbed to add together.

My wife wants caps and a salve so this weekend I'll be busy. Personally I'll take any relief I can get?

I don't have any inflammation atm, but obviously will at some point. Very interested if you find any relief from non-decarbed addition.
Really hoping you get good results!!

I'd loan you mine but it got ripped last time I wore it?

Honestly I don't think it's really strong enough for full relief but it sure helps. Just by relaxing the body's muscles there's some relief but yes on how that THCA & CBDA additions or even on their own work.

That "entourage" effect for the high was in full bloom yesterday morning and I'm just finishing a 50/50 joint now. And Damn, I'm pretty high. I know the CBD has no psychedelic effects but something in the hemp adds to the THC and the other psychedelic producing compounds. I like that?

Gotta clone that hemp.

Lol that's ok I got ripped last night making a blend of Strawberry Diesel and Blue Cheese. By the way it was epic in flavor! Lol.

UncleB all the time I spend riding your asses to move and you don't have any inflammation?? Damn... lol.

The Entourage Effect intrigues me and is why I am gonna grow some CBD THC both to see how it goes. I feel like the Terpenes in Hemp may help too.

If I can ever get the silver nitrate I ordered (ordered June 28, del date July 8-9, still hasn't shipped now del date July 18) I'll do my best to make fem seeds. To get the 4 plants I had to plant 4+ dozen seeds. Terrible germ rate on these.

I've read about crossing the strains but from what I understand you'll get f1 high in THC low in CBN. F2 is high CBD low THC, etc so seems to me the best way is grow and process both individually and mix before/upon consumption.

I would try to work a cross if I could measure the CBD. I can tell if the THC is strong or not but no way to tell the % of CBD.

Psychobilly · Jul 9, 2022

Is that germination problem because of a genetic thing? The F1 VS F2, that's interesting! So much variation there and I realize how little I know about Hemp and it's ways LOL. I don't know if Leafly is correct on this or not, but I've heard that Blue Cheese contains "an average" of 2% CBD.... I'm not so sure I believe that number as I'm also not sure how that works out either.

I have no clue why I get such a low germ rate. I'll plant a bunch of seeds, several different strains and everything pops like normal except the hemp. I'm gonna soak 'em for a day or two next time I try to start from seed. I'm going to clone the current beast

Lots of lowers to take

14+ hrs of light a day will grow great clone tops.

But it will all have to wait another week. Tracy has been wanting to go to the Pageant of the Masters in Laguna Beach, bucket list stuff, so I bought tickets for her last year. We were thinking of getting a hotel and then I remembered a killer campground about 15 miles Northeast of Laguna. $15 a night 'cause I'm old. So we're gonna spend a couple nights sleeping under the stars, visiting my old stomping grounds as well as Seal Beach (I use to live 2 blocks from the water 40 yrs ago) Crystal Cove state Park and the Pageant.

In the meantime I'm puffing Magnum Flames auto harvested 3 months ago

This dried and cured well. The MF is my 2nd fav behind GDP and I'm really looking forward to the F2's of the cross with the GDP. Got a few grape fuel phenos in round 1.

Psychobilly · Jul 10, 2022

Looking great bro! I generally start my seeds out with a basic red solo cup, where I toss the beans in, then add water (That way they aren't soaking on just one side) and then I "spin" the cup a bit to get water movement, and then each day replace the water to prevent fuzzy growth. Once a taproot is out I just place them in Moss Blocks. I was actually concerned for my first time this year because I'd heard Landrace strains can take some time, and, can need to have a little scrape done to get them going, but it actually worked out well on my Tashkurgan. Hope that works out well

Did you sneak those buds into the Arctic ? Looks like they got snowed on haha.

Psychobilly · Jul 10, 2022

How's the MF taste and smell ? You saying it's up there with GDP got me curious now haha!

Looking good as usual over here ????

Thank you my friend but it should be so much better. I now have a monthly and quarterly inspection and test schedule. Those heads build up putting back pressure on the pump and then I need a new one and I don't have that info for several days to a week or more.

I inspected all the plants today, cleaned em up and made sure they were in the loop. Next week I'll take cuttings although I did take down hemp #2 after processing all of #1 today. Putting a decarbed ounce and a non decarbed ounce into coconut oil as I type

2 half oz decarbed and middle one oz fresh with CBDA intact all 1/2 cup oil. Tracy wants lotion and caps so doing it up. To me this is really fun?

It ended up being a bit hazy/diesely. It's an accidental cross with a Dragon's Flame reg. from another grower, actually his brother I believe. He told me he was getting about 30% autos. I've gotten 90+% autos in three grows. And when I crossed it with GDP I got a few grape fuels. Yummy. I crossed the f1's and crossed them back to GDP, male and female and back with Magnum Flames, both auto and regular. I really should be working these but I have some unfinished business in the little greenhouse for the next couple months and can't make room right now, otherwise...

Oh man I don't even know how Haze is at this point, it's been so long since I've had any form of it LOL! The sounds of what you're saying is very nice though
