narcos was quality mate i really enjoyed it, you ever seen them doc cocaine cowboys 1 n 2?

griselda blanco was mental lol

 

[theslipperbandit]

deffo need to be stoned to watch 5mins of that mate lol got a fucking bad toothache need some decent painkillers these poxy codeine/paracetamol shite aint worth a cup of cold piss....

Do a cold water extraction to get the codeine

 

[lahadaextranjera]

Rhodogil (only 125mg)

Will clear any toothache abscess in a matter of hours. This tooth anti-biotic has saved me like no tomorrow. 3 a day but double dose the first 2 pills.

But, can you walk into a UK pharmacy and buy it over the counter? It only costs a couple of €.

Or just go to your local club and have a good session. Some guy (from Wales) last night won a few cups so I smoked his.

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

some local from wales!? musta been good shit lol.

been chopping some plemon this after.

Those are some nice looking buds.

Do you really hang your buds to dry next to the light? In case you didn't know, light degrades THC very quickly when the plants are fresh.

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

Thanks, they are next to the light but it won't be going on anymore. it's more for the extraction.

Any scientific proof of that Rolli, i've done it plenty before and my bud is just fine. mind you that was above the lights not directly under them like that pic above. There's plenty threads saying that it should be done in the dark but i've yet to see a scientific answer as to why it should degrade the thc. just because I've cut their root supply off.

 

[abe supercro]

went for a golden cure (after seeing mohican mention it) on one of my smaller plants. and that one, sun dried w fan leaves intact within a greenhouse, was the tastiest. I'd expect any light to degrade it some, but perhaps it has favorable effects- on quicker curing, or the terpines, w the filtered sun and fresh air at least. sure beats bringing outdoors plants inside

this is what I'm concerned about w the stress of re-vegging altering a keeper plant:

Epigenics is the study, in the field of genetics, of cellular and physiological phenotypic traitvariations that are caused by external or environmental factors that switch genes on and off and affect how cells read genes instead of being caused by changes in the DNAsequence. Hence, epigenetic research seeks to describe dynamic alterations in the transcriptional potential of a cell. These alterations may or may not be heritable, although the use of the term "epigenetic" to describe processes that are not heritable is controversial. Unlike genetics based on changes to the DNA sequence (the genotype), the changes in gene expression or cellular phenotype of epigenetics have other causes, thus use of the prefix epi- (Greek: επί- over, outside of, around).

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

Yeah and he shook his or rather threshed it to get just the trich heads and it was stellar he said.

for the initial period yes the plant would grow funky looking cells while it changes back to veg but the end product of the same plant cloned or re flowered out is 100% the same. ime anyway or there would be no clone only strains. they'd have all morphed.

Good question, Man. It's something that is in every cultivation book. I've just always taken it as gospel. I've also wondered about growers who dry their bud outdoors, usually under a roof or shade, but still out in the daylight. Terpenes are developed mostly during the cure, so maybe the light helps to develop them, but I think they develop just as well in the dark if given time. I'll have to check Marijuana Botany.

Leaving the fan leaves on the plant during drying extends the drying time, just the same as drying the plant whole, because of the moisture of the leaves and main stem. That slow drying is essentially the start of the curing.

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

That's just it I believe time, light oxygen and probably heat would eventually impact on THC as it does on most once living organisms, but I just can't see it happening to a high degree over the course of a day or two.

the drying process can be done fast to a point and then it must be slowed to cure or it's going to taste of hay forever. take for instance the guerrilla technique of sweating the buds for around 72 hours then drying. be interested in seeing anything you can turn up Rolli.

Moroccans have been drying their harvests outdoor for decades (longer I am sure). They make some dam tasty hash.

I'm sorry for questionING ur answer but I'd assumed the terp profile if anything cures over time rather than develop after chop

We bitch about him all the time but in fairness I bet his crops dialed in

He pretty much explained my arguments for rolling points

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

pretty sure I've seen pics at some point and they were fine.

since you are here................what is the big thing with trading n shit on this site? Why is it so massively frowned on? Surely you cant believe the old shit of " if you allow trading on your website YOU can somehow be prosecuted for it??

honest question btw, we all wonder......
