Hey folks, while we're on the subject of oil & such, I was wanting some input on a different twist on butter.

Has anyone ever put the weed in a cheese cloth sack & kept it below the water surface & put in the butter so the weed never actually touches the butter?

Won't the hot water boil the oils out of the weed & then the oil bond with the butter & not have to squeeze out the weed?

Don't know about y'all, but I lose a lot only having one hand to squeeze with I can't really get it all out.

Seems like it would just be cleaner too, if it works.

What up Bill!
Good to see ya here. I just made it over myself not long ago.

I'm having a bad problem here from bud rot. It's been raining all the time for the last month or so & I was wondering if there are any tricks to help?

Normally there isn't any problem from too much rain.

Also, I was wondering if you got any of the PGG in flower yet?
Mine are about 11' tall, but no sign of flowers yet

Mr. B. I thought I pushed the wrong button. lol how's that retirement treating you? I found out a couple of days ago that them hoops come in handy when its tie up time. no sticks needed.

Good afternoon Gman. BUD ROT I hate that crap. I had a little earlier with the autos I was growing but only around 10 grams out of 300. But fall is coming and our humidity is already up there. You can spray with some organic methods or spray Serenade or Actinovate which are bacteria to munch on the mold. Make sure the plant is opened up so the air flow is good. If I had a really still evening I would fire up the sulfur burner for a few hours.

The PGG is a crazy plant. No buds but there are pistils in the colas. The colas on mine are growing very fine leaves and I mean a lot of them and there are pistils in there. I have one in the greenhouse and it's about 6 foot tall and 10' across but it's even weirder. The ones outside range in the 10 to 13'.

Happy Days

BILL! Good to see you again, old friend! Hope every thing is going great for you. Missed you and a few others. Your salve has kept me outta extreme pain for as long as I've been making it.

Yo Bill long time no see !- Welcome - we been missing U !-- seen them picks !!-- Looking good !-- U remember I never post any pics over there !!-- Hippie helped me post some pics of what I do a few pages back ! U and that sulfur !!-- Hey if it works it works !!-- Got to get me one of them ISO machines -- The guys at the liquor store think I'm a closet drunk !-- 30 mph wind and a hot plate out side with a cheese cloth over the top !!-- When it has reduced to about half -- to make e-cig juice I add the concentrate to the Veg. Glycerin and refuce it the rest of the way stirring regularly -- takes several reductions to get enough THC into the glycerin -- think about how many tokes in a cc. Of e-cig liquid ? Takes a lot !!-- Green Dragon - I reduce it down to a dose is about a cc. -- U have to test your stuff your self and adjust the dosage ! Had my hash bags out the other day -- it won't be long before I put them to work ! Got to go take a box of clones !

 

[giggy]

Giggy I know that's right !- had to get up at O- Dark Thirty to be ready to cut meat at 7 am!! Now I'm preparing for the end of prohibition and my second career !! Gonna put up weed - Hash, Cannacaps , Green Dragon and lots of e-cig liquid !-- I don't know much but the new Green World Order is gonna want lots of weed !!-- plan on putting up as much inventory as possible before then !! What med is giving U trouble !!-- Doc had me on 180 mg of morphine a day for 7 years- it was killing me !-- One day I no more !!-- Hello Withdrawals !! That's a place I hope others never have to see !!-- Cannacaps and a toke or 2 and I manage !!

i have been rough on myself over the years, they have me on blood pressure, stomach meds as well as pain and muscle relaxers. i take a few pain meds but hardly ever take the muscle relaxers. the one that is messing with me is my thyroid meds, they had me on .150 for the last 5 or 6 years took me to .137 three months ago. that wasn't good enough so they dropped me to .100 now i can't get motivated to save my life. said they have been overdosing me for the last 5 or 6 years. i asked if i was overdosed then shouldn't i be on the smaller side, they said no. just like taking to much arsenic, it doesn't kill you, but a small amount will. now maybe i can get some of this weight off of me, i would love to be about 200 again.

Bozzo, you use iso to make RSO? I used everclear but my husband has an opinion..lol he thinks we should use iso. Iso scares me. Can you tell me how you did it. We do our outside on the patio with fans blowing it away while "cooking" We are very careful..YIkes.

cooking? i air evap, and i'll set my second run in the sun till it turns red. it smooths it out a little and seems to make for a cleaner buzz. i also use 90% rubbing alcohol to make mine.

Going pretty darned good for me. Retired and starting to enjoy myself. To many things to do so haven't done any major travel. Sure good to hear that the salve is working like it should. Pain sucks. I've been taking epsom salt baths to raise my magnesium level in the muscles. To early to tell but it seems to be working. Happy Day Hippie:vap_smiley:

Keef go to see you. Looks like you have been busy and It's nice you figured out the E cig thing. I haven't had much mold in the greenhouse but I did have a little bud rot. Grrrrrr sulfur works but not when you have buds. It would make them taste like ssshhhhhhheeeeeeeet

Happy Munchday

no the ISO-2 is a 1970's machine . I used one back then. Its a cross of a coffee pot and a still. The old ones were selling on EBAY for 800 to 1500 dollars. Then last year someone made a remake of them. New for 500 dollars. the new one is called a "FLOWER POWER TOWER". They are out of Florida. I use ever clear also the 190 proof stuff. it's got a bowl that you put pot in and a couple of cups of ever clear. Put top on the let it run for a day or more. Take the pot out and replace with a glass ,and the ever clear condenses into the glass . they sell on ebay. pricy at 500 , but I have always purchased the tools I need . then you have it for ever. the heating element is a light bulb. in the 70's I used rubbing alcohol...but I'm a little smarter now.

i had to look this thing up, never heard of them before. be nice to have around. i use rubbing alcohol and air evap. for a week or two, then i scrape it up let it cure some more. i have made some pretty mean stuff that way. been wanting to go with the everclear route and make a tincture. does the everclear iso dry like the 90% rubbing alcohol iso?
