When I’m not high up in the cartoon air, I have another hobby I’ve been toiling away at for almost 30 years.
I’m a bit of a hippie I suppose. :old: I don’t drink alcohol or take otc synthetic drugs. I make my own medicine. Here is a peek at one of my flowering tents. I’m in the Northeast so I just started soaking the beans for summer outdoor crop. I’m in a legal state so don’t worry about the fuzz. :police:
Three plants in this one just entering week four of flowering. Two Gelato OG’s on the left and in the back with about four more weeks left. Plus a Durban Poison on the right in the front. That one will take a few weeks longer most likely.
It’s getting a little tight in there so time for a haircut which means lots of larf leftover. That’s one of my favorite parts of growing. Aside from smokeable bud, all the by product lets me make tinctures and oil for cooking. I usually sell that to my wife’s silly friends or at the local farmers market. An ounce of my everclear tincture can go for $50-100 and I have mason jars full of that stuff hehe! :aok
Where my Aces High growmies at? :cheers:

The Gelato is pretty popular right now because of its extra high thc content. These ones are already starting to frost up nicely. :P

The Durban Poision reaching for the sky! It will probably need close to at least 8 more weeks to get nice and fat.

Here they were at about three weeks old. They are all grown up now!

Nice plants ... gardening can be very rewarding
How big a tent ? Looks like 2ft by 4ft
Not sure how well your hobby will go over on this forum though
:cheers:

This one is 4x4. I have two 2x4’s I use for seedlings and vegging. I also have 6x8 pop up greenhouse I use in the summer.
-
I just got a 4x2 myself and collecting all the fixings.
How hard are tinctures to make? Do you have a guide by chance? My main reason for getting into this is for assistance sleeping. I suppose it would be nice to utilize the entirety of the plant if I could.

I have a magic butter machine so it’s easier than napping. You decarb your stuff, mix it in the pot, press a button and come back when it’s done. Mine is the infuzium 420. Silly name lol and was in the cheaper side, like $150 maybe, but there are lots of brands of machines. Super easy. Amazon is your friend.
Edibles and tinctures barely touch me, I’m old school with the bud. Must be my metabolism as a skinny old hippie lol.
What are you growing? Now we know why the site hasn’t been updated since the fall! :neener:

Hah, nothing yet. I've still got a lot of accessories to buy yet. Seeds are otw and hoping to plant by the end of the month. Just a few types of autoflower and then some freebie photoperiod seeds.
-
Autos are great to learn on. Photos get you the most under most conditions. 18 months from now you will grow more and better than you could ever buy. I make my own compost and am all organic. In fact all outdoors this year will be autos. I got hammered by bugs and rot in my greenhouse last summer.
Just remember it’s a weed… don’t overthink it.

Lol...yeah some of that there reefer madness might pop up :rolleyes:
Look at making infused vegetable and coconut oil Spikes
Both are easy and you can make brownies, chocolate and gummies from those oils pretty easily
It does take a bunch of weed to make decent eatibles...about 7 grams of bud per 1/2 cup of oil...1/2 cup usually goes into a batch of 25 brownies or 80 gummies/chocolates using a mold
Silliest thing is it isn't totally legal everywhere in 2023...
To consider it a narcotic the same danger as heroin just shows our leaders ignorance and corrupt tie to big pharmaceutical companies

For cooking coconut oil is the best because you can use it in place of butter and oil for any recipe. You can also just use it sublingually as a tincture. This week I’m using it to make my wife a lotion for topical pain relief.

Yeah that is what I keep telling myself after going down rabbit holes of make sure you do this or that. I looked into the Infuzium thing as well as the Activator, I'll probably pick them up eventually.

My first few years growing I carefully followed strict guidelines and meticulously cared for them. Now that I use my own compost and dry amendments all I do is water them once in a while. The only thing I haven’t done is use an auto water system. I still like the the time I get with my plants when I water them. Gives me a chance to inspect them and whatever.
Infuzium was on the cheap side but works great for everclear. Butters and oils you need to run through a couple times but that’s a good idea anyway. The Lenovo machines will decarb for you even. I’m thinking of getting a hydraulic press for wax since my wife and her friends prefer vapes to smoking bud.

The auto water things are cheap, at least they can be - I will probably pick one up as I'll be going away for a week or so in May. Not something I'd rely on all the time but should be sufficient when away. I'm going to try to find a decent solution for excess drainage too, probably something gravity handled.

I’ll be surprised if this doesn’t get lock asap. Until then I have a press and can say once you get one you’ll be glad you did! You can decarb the rosin to make edibles and it will not add the sometimes nasty taste or give you dry mouth simply because you can use small amounts.
There’s many things I’ve done with herb,it’s been a hobby of mine for many years but I won’t get into it in this open forum,besides it’s against the rules.
I’d be open to questions,just shoot me a pm.

LoL. I got locked and pinged for the mere mention of amanita muscaria which is perfectly legal in Texas and 48 other states. :rolleyes:
Btw, nice flower.

Both have their challenges but yes you can generally pinpoint issues in hydro much easier. I make my own dirt so I don’t mind it. I’m fact I was noticing one of tube plants is starting to burn a bit but I just gave them a worm castings top layer and a fresh round of compost tea.

I have been pricing them out, I don’t need anything fancy. There is a hydro shop down the street from me that presses your stuff for you with their giant one. It’s definitely cool!
Not sure what we’re discussing that is wrong… if so wouldn’t we have to go back and remove all the posts about booze? You know drugs and all. I guess for a game that craves new subscriptions, old thoughts will need to evolve?

Thanks! Where I live this is medicine. (Always was lol) I’m not trying to be snarky but to discount cannabis in todays world is not the hill anyone should try to die on. Was just looking to share pics of plants with other AH growers. I don’t care if someone doesn’t like weed, they are humans just like me and can do whatever they like with their life.

No but the owner of this website does.

Certainly am not looking to upset anyone just sharing a hobby.

I understand but not sure HTC will.
The big buzz where I live is the CBD and CBG combination,you won’t get the intoxication effects but it does wonders for pain. It’s rather complicated to make and requires specialized equipment and the amounts you can extract are quite small even when growing the proper strains. I find it’s just more cost effective to purchase the products but you have to be sure what you get lists the percentages. Again where I live this is all perfectly legal across the whole country and the standards are regulated to be sure you get what you are paying for.
With that said… I’m out but feel free to pm me if you have any questions.

Coincidence? Perhaps.

I’ve grown the CBD for my wife before but it’s not often. They pretty much give it way here price wise. All THC ends up as CBN at some point just a matter of time. That why if you find an old jar of weed it will probably send you to snooze town.

Since booze is not illegal in states or on the federal level and what you are posting about is. I believe that is what they are referring to about locking. You might as well be posting about making any drug. That is the point. You sure do not want to be assisting someone in doing something illegal.

One natural painkiller and totally legal is instant acupuncture; place a darning needle under big toe nail and kick something hard, like a wall or tree trunk. May take you high as well.
