Quoting: JoeNobHead Her edibles are always VERY strong LOL very cool.. how does she make it? because last year, i tried to make butter but instead i made a huge stinky mess! it was so bad i'm going to try the ice bubble hash method instead. but i'm curious if you have a good method for making canna butter? have you tried dry ice in those bubble bags yet? i have not.. dry ice, curious how that works, have you tried it? no, it is illegal here and I need to wait for legalization. but I have heard that if you try both the ice and dry ice, you will never go back to just ice. way too messy. you can get most out of using a 120 & 220 bag with most strains and dry ice. Make sure you dry the trim thoroughly before starting and freeze it for at least 24 hours. then it only takes about 5-10 minutes. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 71594995 United States 10/10/2020 04:07 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | there is a graph showing the time vs temperature plot of decarbing. if you are cooking with it you need to research how to decarb. but I was just wondering if people have better success with a higher temperature and lower time? 250 @ 27 certainly works fine but it seems more of a body buzz where the strain when lit is more of a sativa effect. so maybe 300 @ 20 or 18 would be more conductive to the thc instead of cbd conversion? or is it better to go 220 for 40 or 45 mins? |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 37645337 United States 10/10/2020 04:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You need to grow right out of the ground. Make a wire basket so the gophers cannot get them Plant earlier in the year so they have longer to veg. and get begger. I grow outdoor in northern california. My clones were in the ground beginning of april. I grow 5-7ft plants averaging 1lb per plant. My record yield was over 2lbs from a 7+ft monster Your planter box’s are way too small, limiting your potential yield. And yes, you are pulling too early...those buds are airy and small. But keep going you’ll only get better |

Quoting: OpenHeartMonk plenty of videos on it. just seems much less messy. you don't have to get the chilled water and create a slush and keep it going for 15-20 minutes, then go through 5-8 bags of diff micron sizes...then drying it out ... then freezing it ...then messaging it into the proper form with dry ice, just make sure you dry the trim (4-6) days and freeze overnight....get a 5 gal bucket .. or better 2 - 5 gal buckets and start with the smaller sized bag of 120 ..shake and sift/sort/message for a few minutes... that will produce the highest grade ... then dump all of the rest including the ice into the 2nd bag, 220 and repeat. all you really have to do is agitate it and shake it a bit, make sure you have insulated gloves. you could go with more bags say a 90, 140, 180 & 220 but it is usually a waste unless you have a lot of trim. I would just go with a 120 & 220. |

JoeNobHead User ID: 79369369 United States 10/10/2020 04:30 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The wife makes canna butter with the trimmings, to cook with. Quoting: JoeNobHead Her edibles are always VERY strong LOL very cool.. how does she make it? because last year, i tried to make butter but instead i made a huge stinky mess! it was so bad i'm going to try the ice bubble hash method instead. but i'm curious if you have a good method for making canna butter? She uses a small crock pot. Puts the leaf into a stocking, then puts it in the butter that's already melted. 1 pound of unsalted butter for 1/2 ounce of leaf. About 5 hours on low in the crock pot. Every hour it's in there, she'll use a wooden spoon to push it back down into the butter, and gently squish it. It always comes out a bit green looking, but it works really well. She uses that butter instead of normal butter, equal ratio, in anything she cooks. Cookies, brownies, peanut butter chocolate balls. I don't eat it, it's WAY too strong for me LOL I believe in science NOT religion. Giving me bad karma for that, is anti-religious (you're passing judgement) I am just a man. Of no significance. Who found religion to be full of lies, and wrong doing, conflicted teachings I understand microwave communications. I do not stand for the NWO, it sucks. |

When I make bone both I put it in the well-house because of the stink. The cook in me wonders if it would be better to clarify the butter first into ghee. It would certainly last longer. I also wonder if an instapot would draw even more into the ghee (you definitely would not want milk solids in an instapot).
