Hello everybody. This is my first time here on rollitup. I am a long time reader and have successfully grown 4 females in a custom made grow cabinet while i was away at my college apartment. Awesome and straightforwad information here.
Anyway for my first thread/topic i wanted to discuss the most interesting experiment during the life of my first grow. DONT THROW AWAY MALE PLANTS IF YOU WANNA MAKE CANNABUTTER!
I was growing big bud and northern lights. I bought a mix pack with 10 seeds these were the only 2 strains. I planted 6 and ended up with 4 females and 2 males when i got back from a small break home. I was worried about pollen so i took out the males immedienly. However as i found out the females got pollenated. It was my first time. i got seedy bud but i have the seeds now and got 2 3/4oz.
I kept the male plants out of the closet in the corner of my room for the mext 3 1/2 weeks. So i would say they were 4 maybe 5 weeks into flowering. I coulndt satnd the pollen pofing out everywhere so i decided they had to go. I looked up tons of threads on many websites just to see if there was any use at all for the males. Mostly all negative stuff and very little about effextivel using them for cannabutter.
I took one morning and killed both male plants. Mind you i was in a huge rush to do the following it took me about 4 hours. I broke off all the fan leaves and dried them quckly in my oven until the crumbled on a baking sheet. Checking frequently. Next i cut all the steams from the fan leaves off until they met the trunk of the plant. These plants were 3 1/2 feet tall. I dried the stems. I left the trunks in the pot and did not use them. I crumbled up all the leaves and tried to get them as small as possible. I then took one stick of butter and 3-4cups of water. I did this so the butter does not burn. I cooked the stems and the leaf matter for 90 minutes in the butter. I used a regular cooking pot. In the end i used about a half gallon of matter in a gallon zip lock freezer bag.
After it cooked I poured the solution into a large bowl through a strainer or collander, covered it and waited 4 hours. There will be little things floating but its all good dont worry. I came back and collected ALL of the fatty deposits made a large butter ball. It always comes out that u get a little less butter than what you started with because your lose the water from the butter stick. Then i followed a simple chocolate chip cookie recipe that made 18 one inch cookies.
My freinds came over to play a poker game. My roomate was down for the idea earlier in the day but we believed it wouldnt work. One of my other freinds tried them too. We each ate 5 cookies in an overall time of 90 minutes and we felt NOTHING. BUT after a few more hands we were feeling funny but couldnt telll what it was. Over the next 2 hours the shit just took off and i had never been so high b4 in my life. I was playing poker hands that i had many turns ago lol. For the next 6-8hours it lasted between me anfd my one freind we at a total of 7 each (made 19).
Totally WORTH IT especially if your away at college. I wont ramble about what else happend because i rambled enough already lol. SOrry it was my first time posting i wanted to share my favortie and most surprising cannibus story.
