made some butter the other night, should be some heavy stuff.

start with some butter(12 sticks for this batch)

then a lot of trim!

a crock pot

melt the butter

add some trim

after sitting on low for around 12 hours

let sit and cool, then use in everything and anything!

Man that butter looks sick! I made some last night with nothing but keif :-)

put almost 7 grams in 2 sticks :shock:

lost a 1/2 stick in cooking.. I really nailed the fudge this time but I had to sell it all :-(

all I git was 1 tester piece.

nugs are looking great LG keeps it up!

nice guy, give me the low down on this girl, it's quite popular in the u.s but i've not seen it over here

Did you lose the 1/2 stick through evaporation during cooking? Because I'm thinking if you used kif you wouldn't have to strain it would you?

Yeah just through making it... No need for straining :-)

I wasn't happy with my last butter which I made in a crockpot with some water added. The previous batch, which was made without water added was much better, but the loss in straining was alot. I'm going to make some bubble hash this weekend and cook with that. PM me your fudge recipe, will ya?

you dont loose as much if you dont mind making it with cooking oil instead, it burns at a much higher temp so less is being wasted.

LG that butter looks strong man hope you enjoy it, the nugs are looking frosty to.
peace

haha I think lg took a sample/tester piece of his crazy butter and is somewhere stuck in outer space! just vanished without a trace.

Great looking update LG! Butter looks sweet, I need to make a batch soon, I've saved trim from the last 3 harvests. I wish I was someplace I could just go buy clones of dank shit! I will be getting some new beans soon though, so I can get some variety again. Still gonna keep my WW though, its been over 2 years of clones now from the one mother seed I had to start with.

To answer what u asked before, ya my garden is still green and stinky. Not so much atm, cus I had shut down about a month ago to prepare, because I was trying to find a place to move. But I've decided to stay where I am, least for another year, and have started getting things up and running again. I had saved several clones and my mothers to get started again once I move. So I took bout 15 clones last week(bout half have roots already), and I'm gonna be putting the other larger clones I have saved into my tray tomorrow actually. I figure it will prolly take me a good month or 2 to get an actual cycle going again, but it'll go fast I'm sure.

well im not much of one for reviews but i can say it is a frosty, stinky, medium producer that turns slight purple after enough time. it can suck down a lot of nutes and does well in all styles of growing. ive got some ready if you want. might be a nice addition to your new grow!

sounds good TC! im sure you got a nice bit of trim after 3 harvests, should make some butter, oil, and kief off all that. you should go over and check out www.breedersboutique.com its a new company started by one of our infamous 600 club growers, all of the seeds for sale should be fire! glad to hear your keeping everything running.
