How the sauerkraut turns out will be decided in about seven days. So far it just sits there and looks pretty.
I'm not a sauerkraut afficionado, but have noticed some is better than others. I used a German recipe that basically calls for shredding the cabbage and adding 1.5 to 2.0% percent salt.
One of the key requirements for the German recipe was that the salt be thoroughly mixed with the cabbage by hand kneading for up to 10 minutes or long enough to bruise all the cabbage. I then crammed it into a sterilized half gallon wide-mouth and topped it with 1.5% saline solution. It suggest one to three weeks brewing, depending on how sour you want it.
My Kimchi recipe by contrast, has a lot more ingredients, but only takes 24 to 48 hours ........................
The 10 mg D-9 THCO gummies are basically the same but for potency and flavor. THC-O is produced from THC using the same process as used to make aspirin or heroin. It ostensibly likewise increases the potency.
One of the reasons they gifted me with the first batch was that they were rejects from a flavor standpoint. Ph is critical in maximizing natural fruit flavor and those were outside their standard, sooo they gifted them to me and others, with a promise that we would not reveal which lab they came from.
Now that they are more closely dialed in, this batch is ostensibly more flavorful and sized for my personal tolerance. They didn't say what flavor they were this time, so I will be surprised.
Sorry to hear your mom wasn't impressed, and a good thing you started titration at half a gummy.
I've seen it go both ways and a couple of the best ones were when a friends family started adding tincture to their mother-in-law's morning drink and she became enough more pleasant to be around that the grandchildren started to visit again.
The best was a woman who in hospice who had arrange for death with dignity the following day. One of our patients shared some of our Holy **** Oil with her.
When she arrived, she was morose and dejected and after about 30 minutes became antimated and chatty, regaling good time spent in her youth, until she finally dozed off.
When she awoke four hours later, the first words out of her mouth was, "That was amazing!"
The second was to call for the nurse to contact her doctor and cancel her Death-With-Dignity. She continued to use the Holy **** Oil and continued to improve, until she finally moved out of Hospice and into her son's home with family.
Alas about two weeks later, she died of heart failure in her sleep, but her enthusiasm for life was dramatically improved for the time she had left.
We ate a lot of it when I was a kid. I have it a few times a year now but buy the stuff in the clear bag sold in the meat department at my market.
