    M2 intensification technique

    Does anyone recognize this factoid: if you leave M2 to get extremely amber trichomes, the resulting high is extremely intense? A friend is having knee replacement surgery and I was going to hold some back for him. Anyone know anything about this? Thought I heard about it here....

    Cannabis floral water

    Having just got myself a stove top still, I did a distillation of about a cup of dried bud. Did not decarb figuring the steam heat would do that. I ended up with about 2 cups of a clear liquid, pleasantly and vaguely smelling of weed, with little blobettes of oil on top. 1. Anyone tried...

    Exhaling CO2 on seedlings

    Anyone tried exhaling one's personal CO2 supply on seedlings? I use the clear cup method to pop and place a upside down funnel over the cup and exhale into it. I base my science on watching a friend's mother do this on her zucchini seedlings: there were a large zucchini harvest that year...

    Cannabis as an herb: is it alkaline or acid

    In an effort to reduce acidity in my body, I was wondering if cannabis is an alkaline herb like cinnamon or tumeric? If so, would the alkalinity only be available in the raw plant material?

    What I harvested 2022

    This a list of all of the plants (27) that made it to harvest; those shown in bold type are the ones that stand out at this time. The very best, consumption-wise, so far are the M2, Pinkleberry, and Tikal: three very fine sativas! Biggest producer was the Honduran, then Tikal. Seemed impervious...

    Geography's effects on terpenes

    According to this: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27604856/ plants develop terpenes in response to their environment. I understand this to mean that acapulco gold, grown in Oaxaca, will have a different terpene profile from one grown in Kansas. So, in effect, this little gal's genetics are...

    Psilocybin powder under the tongue?

    Wondering if placing a small dose of ground up mushroom under my tongue would stop heebeejeebees? I've read that mixing it w/lime or lemon juice (lemontek) mimics stomach acid and is effective. But wondered if making a lozenge out of it would work?

    Anyone tried any of the new-fangled pipes like KOL or Weedgets Maze X, Honest/Path Pipe

    The theory behind these, I think, is that a series of baffles between bowl and mouth piece sorta pin balls the inhale to your throat/lungs thereby cooling it. Like to give/use but at ca. $100, I want more info. than marketing blather. Thanks

    Got a HOCL maker; how many ppm to use on plants?

    According to https://www.researchgate.net/publication/264153879_Fungicidal_Effect_of_Slightly_Acidic_Hypochlorous_Water_against_Phytopathogenic_Fungi a spritz of HOCL will protect from fungi like powdery mildew, botrydis, etc. Anyone know the recommended dilution rate?

    Been harvesting for 2 weeks and I'm tired. So what about this?

    I'm tempted to trim up the plants while they are still standing: standing up is more comfortable at the moment and don't need anymore leaf litter in the house nor do I need anymore fan/sugar-leaf ends for whatever. Does anyone know if this is a bad idea? How much time could lapse between...

    curing in mylar bags

    Having way over done it, crop wise, (30 survivors, some plants over 8 feet +), rather than curing in way too many jars, etc., is there anything wrong with curing in open mylar bags. I have washed and air-dried the cuttings in dark room w/dehumidifier. & fan. Once bud stem breaks, I would: 1...

    Using leaves, etc. in cannabutter & topicals from bud-rot plants

    After discarding the actual spoiled buds, washing leaves in H2O2/bicarb solution and rinsing in clean water, could I assume that any edibles, bhang, salves be safe to use? I don't want to get/give bud rot to anyone....looks quite disfiguring.

    Seeds harvested from plants with bud rot ok?

    Was hoping that the cannabis seed's seeming impervious shell would prevent it from being a carrier. Anyone know anything about this? I start my seeds in distilled water with H2O2: scarify and then soak 18 hours. Maybe rinse them first before scarifying to remove fetal varmints? Hate to...
