I think I brought my plants back from death. I waited too long to transplant and the roots were embedded in the cardboard material of the peed pots. They were practically falling over and weren’t absorbing any water first 48 hours. I drilled holes in the bottoms of the new pots and got the excess water out. Adjusted height of light as well. Now they are looking healthy again, taking water and not wilting anymore.

Wax pens are alright. I like the Hash Artist Farms cartridges and the Stizzy ones. I hear people are getting sick from the pens though now.

You know, I have a theory about that.

This is a cart I filled last May. So it's been sitting a while.20191015_154702.jpg
It contains 97% distillate and 3% organic temps.

Notice how the ends of the distillate have turned brown from air hitting it for a few months?

You just never see that on store bought carts. I think they add shit to make them look better.

Also, real distillate doesn't move much. You'd have to lay it down and go do something for a long time to move the bubble in there, some dispensary carts move as fast as maple syrup in there. I think they thin them for some reason.

And I theorize the stuff they add is what's bad for you.

I've also heard that vaping fake CBD oil fucked some people up (and why even vape CBD, just eat it) and nicotine vapes fucked some people up. So nicotine would have to have a huge cut on it, pure nicotine would kill you.

I have my money on additives and cuts causing the problems, and totally fake CBD oil that tested 0% CBD. Imagine that.

My peers have not reviewed my study, but it's something to ponder. People can put anyfuckingthing in there and under sell you.

I've seen shatter melted into wax liquidizer sold as distillate, moves like water in there and they can sell it cheaper than real distillate.

It's a jungle out there. Just sayin'.

I had an awesome weekend of feasting and smoking debauchery. I tried dabs for the first time on Friday. A friend brought over his dab rig, live resin and diamond concentrate. We started out with reasonably sized live resin dabs which I thought was really good. He stared making the dabs too big by the time we got to the diamond concentrate and I coughed really hard and puked a bit in my mouth and that was it for me. I don't think I'd do that again. You kinda look like a crackhead using a torch to get high and it's hard to hide from the neighbors.

On Saturday we had thanksgiving dinner at our place, Sunday was chicken wings and beer at Hooters then we had another thanksgiving dinner at a friends house yesterday. I think I've had enough turkey to last me the rest of 2019.

I got to laugh, I remember the first cannabis extractions I ever saw.

Circa 1975 when I was in school, we would travel a couple hours east to Penn State where they had better drugs than our much smaller state college.

I knew a lot of people from HS there and they hooked me up with a chem major who had hash oil and lighter honey oil. Sold in covered beer bottle caps for $20.

But there was no delivery system, 40 years before dab rigs, vape pens, etc.

So we'd get a pyrex 'oil pipe', a tube with a bulb on the end with a hole on top. This was before crack, free base, and nobody smoked speed, they snorted it or drank it in black coffee.

So you'd put some oil in there and light the bottom with a bic lighter to get it bubbling, get a hit and cough for 5 minutes.

It was horrible. We wound up just smearing it on cig papers and adding it to joints. And they would make you cough too.

It was a product ahead of it's time back then. At least technology caught up. Lol.

I live in the UK and I donated blood yesterday. I don't live in a major city, so we don't have a donation centre, we just have the donation team set up in a room at the local football club, or in the local theatre every couple of weeks.

Talking to the nurse beforehand I mentioned that I tried to donate a few weeks earlier, but the nurse couldn't hit a vein so apologized and asked if I could rebook a new appointment on the phone asap. The new nurse looked at my details and said that although that session was fully booked, they had squeezed me in as I was O neg blood type, which is the one they can use for anybody no matter their blood group, thus is in high demand. She looked even closer then said "oh, you are also CMV negative, you are really in demand!!"

I had never been told about the CMV neg before and asked what that meant. It turns out that roughly 70-80% of adults have been exposed to the CMV virus, a flu type virus which stays in your body for life, a bit like cold sore virus does. Does no harm, but they can't use their blood for people with no immune system as it can be fatal.

She basically said, there is a very high chance your blood always goes to Neonatal units, your blood can be given to babies, even unborn ones who may need a transfusion in the womb. Because their immune system is still developing, there is no risk to them as you are CMV neg. Add in the fact you are O neg as well and ANY baby can have your blood, you are part of a very, very small percentage.

My daughter is 6 months pregnant at the moment, so that REALLY hit home.

Just a chance conversation, but it has really made me realise even more just how important donations are, and how crucial they can be to save someones life, even that of an unborn baby.

I already knew I was helping others by donating, very probably saving lives, but walking out of there yesterday knowing what I then knew, I had a tremendous feeling of pride in what I was doing. I have only been donating for 5 years, and wish I had started years ago now.
