Making Canna Salve

[Carty]

Me and the Wife love your salve Jan

Ditto.... I use it on my hip muscle he cut in half to replace 2yrs ago, hurts when I'm to active... her salve and better then icy hot some days.. helps with that dull ache throbbing pain.. Hey Jan, maybe selling is the wrong wording then. You only accept donations.. I started off my seed ventures that way and I was amazed once I setup that PayPal account just how much some donated.. it all evens itself out because freight adds up, I started out just asking for freight to be paid and was amazed at the kindness of those around me. so think about that approach.

Donations are a perfect way to say thank you.

Second batch is cooking. Used a half ounce of blueberry/bubblegum from 3-4 years ago and was surprised how sticky and stinky those buds remained. It was a favorite plant and I'd occasionally smoke a bud even now. I'm combining Jan and Beemer's recipes. I'm adding a little lecithin and using better, fresher buds, so I hope for a little extra medicinal impact. I'll use a mixer this time to aerate it before jarring.

Let me know how that works always looking to improve my recipe.

Anyone try using kief instead of bud/trim. If so, does it need decarbing ???

I changed the recipe slightly. It was hard to get out of the container so I cut the wax to 1 cup.

This is my updated recipe

1 1/3 C coconut infused canna oil
1/3 C caster oil black if you can get it
(Extra Virgin Olive Oil can be substituted)
1 C bees wax ( soy wax for vegan)
1-2 Tbs essential oil lemon works best
( make sure its skin grade )
Vit E oil 1 tbs

Using a double boiler melt the wax completely.
Turn off double boiler for the rest.
Add the caster and vit e oils mix well.
Add essential oil.
Poor into light proof containers
They will get solid quickly so be ready with the light proof containers.
