    Is using a blender instead of a grinder harder to clean?

    @Beachwalker, I think we both agree :D. Blender is going to stay for food (or, in the cabinet, as it has been :lol:). I'm on my way now to learn to make hash...and oil, next. I think that's the order I'm going.....not sure yet..... gotta do my taxes first :wall:. That'll take about 2 weeks...

    Is using a blender instead of a grinder harder to clean?

    Very good point. I wonder that, too. I'm still grinding with the grinder, however, I did try NOT grinding (except the large pieces because it was popcorn and wasn't cut as well) this last time to make tincture, and cindysid was right. After I strained it through the cheesecloth, there were...

    Help with migraine... is smoking enough, or do I need to make edibles or ?

    I guess I might look into it. Seeing more than one person talk about it makes it even more legit. When the pain dies down, I'll look it up and find out how to do it. I also got a headache that has never gone away in 1983 after a cornea transplant. It's considered a tension headache, but nothing...

    Help with migraine... is smoking enough, or do I need to make edibles or ?

    Interesting article. We have cows, so probably have the right mushrooms on the property, but I haven't tried any since the '70's.....and, I'm not sure I want to get into that right now, but will keep it in mind if I can't get the migraines better. Right now the pain is driving me crazy.

    Help with migraine... is smoking enough, or do I need to make edibles or ?

    So far, all the strains I've tried have helped my nausea, most of the time. I can understand how different strains are different for each person. I'm ill, and can only manage 10 plants; getting 5 seeds minimum of each strain, so only 2 strains a year. This is my 2nd year to grow actual strains...

    Help with migraine... is smoking enough, or do I need to make edibles or ?

    I'm rather new at truly medicating. I've smoked for years to help nausea, but it's been just "weed", not any strain made for pain, etc. Last year, I purchased AK 47 seeds and grew 4 plants. I got them for it's properties of helping MIGRAINES. The plants were harvested in October, and luckily I...

    Term question: trim vs trim, smoke & bud

    @Beachwalker, That's how I did mine; jars with buds; and jars with popcorn buds & sugar leaves. So, I would have thought that the stronger ones would be used for hash..... I'm about to make my first hash, so this is a good place to start. I use hash to sleep. So far, I've only used hash bought...

    Term question: trim vs trim, smoke & bud

    Sounded weird to me, too; just had to ask. I had a jar of loose bud and sugar leaves mixed, so I used 2 oz to be sure it's strong enough. It's for pain, and it's the first batch I've made with this plant (Afghan). Before, we've just had seeds of unknown origin...You know, a friend was given a...

    Term question: trim vs trim, smoke & bud

    I'm making tincture & the recipe calls for either 2 oz trim or 1- 1 1/2 oz Trim Smoke and Bud What's the difference between trim & trim, smoke & bud? I'm getting ready to decarb 2 oz of what I harvested, and I it's bud with a little bit of sugar leaf mixed in with it. Is the sugar leaf "trim"...

    Need suggestions on PH meter

    Thanks everyone. I'll look into the bluelab, and just may go with the drops afterall ;). @GeneBanker, it failed by not sensing well. It had a sensor for moisture, and even just after I watered the plants, it would read "DRY".....ugh. And, the PH would read too low. I messed up also, and over...

    Need suggestions on PH meter

    Last year I bought a PH meter that was too cheap, and it really cost me in the end. So, before I start this season, I need to buy a new one, and looked through the threads, but couldn't find anything, so here I am. Any advice on a good PH meter? Thanks!

    What seeds are you running in 2018?

    For my pains & nausea, etc: Gold Leaf -FEM Trainwreck- FEM I learned last year that getting feminized seeds is the way to go! I didn't have to look every day& worry that there was a male plant lurking out there!

    Why do I need cryptocurrency to buy beans now?!?!

    Have you tried "I love growing Marijuana.com"? I got my seeds there & used a Master Card since they suggested Visa would sometimes deny a marijuana purchase. It went through just fine. Don't know if they have what you want, but you can check.

    Is using a blender instead of a grinder harder to clean?

    Reading & reading/looking through videos, etc.... but, you sure make a good point. It would really save a lot of time not grinding it! I also saw some that decarbed in the mason jars, but...I think I'll just break it up. EASY sounds great to me! thanks to all of you.

    tincture: how long do the effects last?

    @Diabolical666, (late answer --sorry- been ill & busy..).. anyway, I'm pre-diabetic, so raising my blood sugar isn't something I want to do ;). That's one reason I started making tincture instead of cannabutter...well, it didn't hurt my blood sugar, but didn't help the cholesterol! ...jeez...

    Making tincture & coffee filter using a lot of liquid!

    Well, after 3 1/2 hours, they finally dripped. I used several filters as they clogged....but didn't squeeze any of them! I got 23 1/2, 1/2 oz bottles! (used 1 pint everclear w/1 1/2 oz cannabis). I tried it, but can't tell the effects of helping the nausea....wasn't nauseous today! It's also...

    STILL not receiving emails on replies to threads

    I used to get emails. The last one I got was in July. I noticed at least one other thread with the same problem. It was also back in Sept or a little earlier. ......I forgot about the watched threads list. thanks!

    tincture: how long do the effects last?

    ok, now that makes sense since I've found so many different things. Edibles seem to have a certain time frame, but.... I'll test it to see :).
