    New batch of infused syrup using distillate
    We have dispensary RSO and commercial hash rosin tincture to reduce

    Putting together a tutorial for mixing the distillate
    Use glass, stainless or silicon stirring sticks or similar and submerge in boiling water to heat them up
    Switch them out for heated ones frequently
    Lots of distillate stuck to the stirring stick and immersion blender

  3. I
    You really got me into this syrups. It was easy to make and even if you have bad material with bad taste, you can still use without gross tasting final product.
    Aside of that - I have tolerance and somehow 1 teaspoon of this in my drink will hit me within 10 minutes…. That’s why I made more of the syrup. I used 1 gram of concentrate for every 100ml of final product - so in my case 5grams of rso to 500ml of syrup. This really became to only way I medicate the last couple of days.

  4. Watch your tolerance levels
    When you need a boost go back to your oil
    It will metabolize into 11 hydroxy THC which is the more potent form

  5. Will try that for sure. I am taking 1 tea spoon the last couple of days and it works perfectly. Today I made the mistake to take one after smoking….I really passed out and slept for 3 hours….

  6. Just a friendly reminder to keep an eye on your tolerance levels. Taking a break and going back to your oil can help with that. The interesting thing is that the oil metabolizes into 11 hydroxy THC, which is actually a more potent form. So, it's no wonder you had such a strong reaction after taking it right after smoking. It seems like you passed out and had a solid three-hour nap! Sometimes these things happen, but it's good to be aware of how different factors can affect our bodies. Stay safe and enjoy your future experiences with the oil!
     


  7. Here is the filtering of some dispensary RSO darts and a R.I.C.E. extraction that the carbonX did a nice job of scrubbing
    Need to do a 28 gram R.I.C.E. extraction to test the carbonX better
    @CHSAdmin this would back up your claim of a more pure extract despite the green coloring
    I did use a copious amount of carbon, I think half or less would have been fine

    Back from the cannabis festival
    Some good flower and some refined RSO darts to start doing some infused recipe experimentation

    Jasper Farms rep I met in the parking lot
    3 pre roll box with matches and a striker on the side
    Even has a side push button to release the tray
    $25, had to buy one just for the effort involved

    The first CBD/CBG forward tincture being reduced for oil infusion
    CBD-V & CBG extractions were added to a Thunderstruck THC10%/CBD15% to see if more sedation can be achieved without increased intoxication or the occasional hangover some low tolerance folks report
    Did not measure the added CBD & CBG other than how many eyedroppers I used
    Numbers not available

    Did not record anything until I get reports back from people on the effectiveness, if any

    Edit:
    Update pics

    Got flooded in Sept. storm and just finished clean up and floor restoration
    French drain scheduled for installation

    Getting ready for the second batch of cbd & cbg enhancement of the tincture

    IMG_20231111_105008.jpg IMG_20231111_105017.jpg

    Is anybody using CBD or CBG flower in any way?
    Smoking, vaping or edibles?

    Edibles are a hit and miss experience for a lot of people
    Looking for other edible enthusiasts to further the research on these cultivars from a personal experience instead of relying on 2nd and 3rd hand reports

    Missing half the pics
    Would not load
    Working on different mixing methods to save distillate and rso during infusion
    Less waste on the hand mixer and utensils

  14. I have cbd/thc med strain (Aunt Ginny’s Elixir from Mephisto) with about 2 weeks left on her. After dry and short cure I plan to use it as part of the buds in gummies. If I have the extra $80 Im going to lab test it so I know what % thc/cbd she is.
    Last time I grew a strain that was supposed to be 50/50 cbd/thc it tested out to be 20% thc 0 cbd. Ill let ya know when I start playing with it.
    If it tests 50/50 I would probably use it as 20% of the total bud. At least to start with.
    Cheers

  15. That would be greatly appreciated
    I know the thunder struck and full cbd cultivar numbers
    The cbg dosing is my biggest hurdle
    25-50mg seems to be the generic dosing recommendation but if you read several sources these numbers can vary by a lot

    I added some to the last thunder struck tincture to see if it would lessen the hangover effect of the chocolates I make
    Positive results but that means nothing as it was the first batch with all the extras
    I came to find out I may not have been processing my oil long enough which added to this being a bust info wise but the product was much better than before

    I have no access to testing and have to rely on home tests
    There is a cheap device called a t check. https://tcheck.me/

    Checking other cannabinoids is expensive
    Probably get cannalytics new test kit. Cannabis, Hemp, CBD, & eLiquid Testing | PA | US Cannalytics

  16. I’ll let ya know what I figure out. This stuff is really just fun for me. If I was more than a hobbyist in the edible game I would buy one of those. If I could test flower at home, I would order one in a heart beat.
    I would like to try to start with a 10% CBD 90% THC ratio and go from there. I’m just curious how it may change the effects. I’m a recreational user and not a med patient so I don’t have ‘needs’. I am getting older, and could become a med user sooner, rather than later. Especially since I hate taking pills, and don’t really trust Doctors, especially with med prescribing.
    Cheers

  17. I can tell you from personal experience when the cbd/thc ratio is around 1:1 it creates a very calm or chill effect
    Minimal psychoactive effects
    Sedation and calm
    Excellent for sleep
    Straight cbd flower produced the calm but not much sedation
    The thc seems to work in concert with the cbd
    Several people use it in place of Ambien

    Second batch of enhanced thc/cbd oil
    I'm not adding a lot of cbd tincture
    The ration of 10%thc/15%cbd seems to be a good balance for people who do not use cannabis
    Tweaking the cbd may counter some of the minimal psychoactive side effects
    But YOU NEED THE THC for decent sedation
    The straight cbd chocolates were "ok" but the thc/cbd are "much better"
    No CBG in this batch

    Anybody working on this stuff or am I the only lunatic
