Question for those in the cap-making fraternity:

Do you sell them, or are they for perso-only? If you sell, what do they go for these days?

Hard market.
Consider donating to those that need them.

 

[Rewerb]

Have you a supply. ??

Anyone who makes caps has learned how to make an ongoing supply, mate.

I've already told you how/that making them for yourself is the most rewarding route as you can tailor them to your own needs.

You know where I am if you want to ask any more questions.

Hey guys, i have this popping up on some of my fabric pots. Does it look like mold or just calcium and minerals leaching from the water?

 

[Capman420]

I help everyone that needs em for medical for free.
.bout 15 ppl
Recreational i do about 200 caps for around 300 bux
Covers costs and the rec users normally onsell at triple the price to get thier money back
I will never take cash or trade for medical...i live for the positive comments i get from that side
Some great stories

 

[Capman420]

If i could warrent a guess id say ive donated.2000 caps to the medical side and 800 maybe to the rec side

I already do. Just considering possibilities for those that don't/cant grow for themselves & simply to cover my own costs.

It's not a profiteering thing by any means.

if you start looking to cover ur costs and then labor and then and then it becomes profiteering very quickly. Doesn't take long to do a lot to help someone.
But cost per cap comes down to strength per cap very fast. If someone is having 2 to 4 very strong caps per day then you will breeze past ozzie costs per week.

I know all this.

I produce VERY strong initial batches of oil (I don't smoke anymore). Those I would consider "ridiculously recreational", so they're easier to hide/store. They then get broken-down incrementally to tailor to whoever wants them & according to their needs (including me!).

I don't sell my weed other to one mate that actually asks for it. Maybe I should.......?

its the salts drying off on the out side

fabric pots are cool and all

but, they always do that, and anyone says you can wash them is smoking weed

you can do a couple of runs in them if you want, but then they stuffed

i still use my old plastic ones, ......or better still just go hydro

and do away with soil

Does Coopers Sparkling Ale count? Probably cat piss compared to your brews.

Ok thanks mate, first grow and fabric pots seemed the all rage when i was setting up. They have helped me get the watering dialed in without water logging the pots. But downside the fungus gnats can get through the fabric and be anywhere in the plant instead of just in the topsoil and were hard to control.

Least it's not mold, i have a bit of a jungle in that 4x4 and humidity is up. Definitely want to try hydro after a few soil grows under my belt though.

Ive got an order of wonder woman on the way can let u know if it gets thru edit sorry im not in melbourne just reread ur post

All good, might just bite the bullet and hope for the best... If you could let me know regardless that'd be ace, bit of peace of mind and all that

About 3 years ago I ordered a heap from herbie as they had some crazy good specials on the go,back then if you paid for the extra stealth they guaranteed delivery and resend if you didn't get your article within 35 days, nothing showed up, so I contacted Mr Herbie and he said he will resend,, once again nothing ever showed up
I find that strange, as I always used hazeio and never had any problems,,
I don't know how but one of the packages from hazeio ended up in Ohio according to the tracking, but still made it here some weeks later a bit tattered and beaten up but still,, couldn't help but wonder if the first package head even left the UK,,as tracking only showed it leaving their area not the country,, I hope you have better luck

Thanks Poontanger, I hope so too!

Yep! Same here. An overrnight soak in hot Sodium Percarbonate in the washing machine & then run it the next day. Sparkling!

 

[Growoolit]

I’m still not fussed in anyone Australian based having my or my safe address details.

Should be OK for a friend in Canberra, where he's allowed to grow. No Customs in the loop.

<chopped/>

i was gonna say ALL Coopers is good, but now I think they're reaching with some of the new stuff.
Cat's piss? I see you've never judged a local beer comp before. Some entries are basically paying for someone to tell them what's wrong with their beer and how to fix it. I remember a comp in Bathurst years ago and one of the stewards was talking up one of the entries (obviously his). I did not taste it as it smelled like an open sewer. My fellow judge confirmed the flavours matched the smell. ENTERIC flavour and aroma. Look at your brewery sanitising process.

 

[Rewerb]

I was Chief Stewarding at a Nationals comp. many years ago, when the table of Strong Ale judges called me over. They'd already finished judging a particular beer & offered me a try, asking me what I thought of it. I immediately recognised it as my own on first sniff, but gave them a completely straight-faced evaluation of what I thought of it, even pointing-out what I considered its shortcomings. They agreed completely & then showed me their scoresheets.... It got 1st place in that category - at the NATIONALS!!
