dunno where you all have been, I went to a music festival for a few days...

so I made coconut oil capsules using the ethanol extraction method, but it was a superconcentrated ethanol extraction, reduced to 4 oz of extra virgin coconut oil.

activated using 250 degrees F in an oil bath (in the beginning, no longer using this method, oven isn't as smelly...), finished with 250 in the oven

had the resulting product tested at a music festival, they had a booth setup.

my capsules tested in at...

85MG THC per 00 Cap, 90MG per gram of oil.
5MG THCV per 00 Cap,
2MG CBG
1MG CBC

the dude said it was the best coconut oil he has ever tested. I credit skunk pharm LLC, bad kitty smiles, and psychedelic sam for all their useful information.



edit: forgot to mention there was absolutely NO THCa, or CBN, meaning there was absolutely no degradation and it was 100% activated!!!

I put mine out 2.5 wks ago and noticed 3 days ago that they are looking like those with the preflowers.
I am concerned as well, and didnt expect it this late in the season honestly.

I see pre-flowers throughout the season on my outdoor grows. They start a lot earlier than you would think but they never actually develop the full buds until later in the season. I guess it depends on their daily light exposure..

It happens when you put out early may, the light cycle will usually start them to flower a bit. They will stretch, pre flower, and get some shaggy structure (having gone terminal). Top in early june to start building a bush of epic proportions off this structure, don't be afraid there is a long growth season ahead. They will revert to veg in june.

**I think everyone should do some outdoor, it gives immense insight into the growth characteristics of cannabis. It answers many questions by virtue of observation.

When you veg at 18+ hours a day, and then throw them outside, they will start to flower due to the drastic change in light hours they get.

Best way to avoid that is to veg at a closer range to what your daylight hours are going to be, or if you are already vegging at 18+ hours, slowly taper back so that by the time you put them outside, they are receiving the same amount of light that they would be getting outside.

As I`ve only grown outdoor plants by starting indoors, this is exactly what I do. 18/6 of veg and a 1 hour / 3-4 days over a two week period, usually early June for me. I always called it hardening off ... but I`m not `up` on my terminology either. Best of luck guys,

The Dog and some others got a nice stretch.
It will be a great help in topping, I cant use the cuttings indoors yet though.

yeah that's why I started in a greenhouse this year to avoid that light cycle 'confusion' as I call it... been experiencing it 4 years in a row so this is the first year that I had pllants started and vegging instead of tricked into flower, big difference in veg time!

only thing you can do is hit them with extra N and hope they realize the light cycle is ascending, not descending..


but remember!


once we hit the summer solstice (june 21st) the light cycle begins to descend, so if you put plants out after this they will never go back into veg.
