Another Tincture Thread - Try it, You'll like it

I'm an old man and need my beauty rest. I hope you were able to get some sleep. If so, then you should be feeling somewhat better today.

 

Or bacon. Maybe use bacon grease as your syrup infuser instead of alcohol. It will work with the gums but you'd need to do a solvent transfer to the fat after you got it concentrated enough then add your powdered bacon for additional flavor.

 

I slept the night through with no waking up with pain and a bit hungover. I loved it but care will need to be applied in all future endeavors.

 

That's a nice Buchner. Where'd you get that?

 

Really? That's pretty cool. What would you do there? Getting your foot in the door is the first step. You'll make connections and have access that you wouldn't have otherwise.

And here you thought those many months ago that no one would take you seriously. I never doubted it.

 

I'm sorry you experienced that but don't let it get to you. It will happen a lot when you get old. This is just a little hiccup. There's nothing more that I can advise you to do other than start taking CBD now and not later. Gummies or other edibles are better than cartridges in my opinion but others don't share that opinion. It's different for everyone.

Pull up your bootstraps and don't feel sorry for yourself. It's all up to you at this point and no one else can do it for you. Grin and bare it and it will soon go away. Then, remember, be careful what you eat.

 

Those qualifications have kept me from landing a job in the legal industry. I can normally pass a background check, even from the DEA for a pharmacy job, because it's been over 40 years, long before computer databases but fingerprints are still available somewhere. I sure could teach those dispensary folks a thing or two.

The only cartridges I'll trust are the solventless rosin cartridges. They use those terpenes as the solvent and they use them in their distillates. They're HDT (hemp derived terpenes) and CDT (cannabis derived terpenes) and are safe (usually). You can learn all about them and a lot of other stuff at Fortune4200 as long as you like to read. I've gleaned a lot of knowledge about the behind the scenes processing that goes on.

THC:CBD 1:1 ratios are supposed to be really good for a lot of people for pain but not necessarily for those of us with 50+ years of hardcore usage as well as debilitating pain. The only thing CBD does for me is mess with my buzz. I do use CBD oil for acute symptoms where I need additional help with inflammation but I have to space it out so that my THC still works at peak efficiency. My pain is too severe for CBD to make a dent but THC works wonders.

My favorite strain for pain is Blue Widow, invariably and over the years. To qualify for me the strain has to have deep pain relief but also has a beautiful buzz that allows me to be active at the same time. No couchlock. Another is Purple Candy and it is very rare and has been years since I've seen it. Then you're got Purple Kush, Hindu Kush and Afgani. Most of my best strains are the old school landrace strains. There are a few modern strains that come close but landrace is best in my opinion.

 

CBD is not a drug and it actually helps moderate the actual drug in cannabis. It has been deemed pharmaceutically safe and can be found in clinics and doctor's offices even in non-THC legal states. It's like vitamin C or fish oil. Because it's derived from cannabis doesn't mean that it's a "drug". It's perfectly legal in all 50 states.

If you drink at all then you've already broken your promise. Alcohol is an exponentially worse and and more dangerous drug than cannabis by a long shot.

 

I understand. I wish you the best. Stay safe at all costs.

 

Looks good to me. Modern Gastronomy here we come! We may be the first cannabis thread to get in depth with this idea. That's in keeping with all the other innovations that have begun here.

I was planning on adding some of your videos to the Index until you deleted them. Now that they're back and for future ones, I'll add them when they're ready but don't...don't...delete anything. Editing is permitted.
