420 - today I put seeds from a batch that were 75% male last time I used them in a sealed container with a couple of ripe bananas. They'll wait until the end of the month and then I'll sprout them. They're ultimately for an outdoor grow so it'll be some time before I'll know the results. Have...

look at Microwave firecrackers tutorial w/ pics I live on these.

I see no reason to dry your material first and the extraction process will give you the right temps needed to activate. My next batch I'm water curing for a week first in order to remove some of the water soluble odour and then it will go right from the cure to the simmering pot. If odours...

The original post by Hash works. A slow cooker will probably need more water than Hash used and you might want to boil it in a regular pot first. You just need to maintain a simmer so that's probably your high setting. Good luck.

If you are questioning the end result take a look at Microwave firecrackers tutorial w/ pics and try just one. Much less of a commitment vis-a-vis making butter. If you don't enjoy it, well I'm sure you can think of other uses.

Just completed a batch. I used 3 pounds of butter and the amount of leaves and stems it takes to stuff the cut off legs of large panty hose, 8-12 oz's. Simmered them together in a large roasting pan half filled with water for 8 hours while stirring them and squeezing with tongs occasionaly. I...

Ain't that a fact. It's all the fault of that cage of yours, it allowed me to see in three dimensions, well see better I think. Hmmm maybe I'll work on a THC keyboard interlock.

Have you given any thought to hanging one light 3-4 feet above the other and putting in another set of plants 3-4 feet off the floor? Doing a strata thing seems to be one of the advantages of vertical.

Thanks Michael. From reading a couple of your other posts I'd given some thought to the nutrients in the drained water and how to reuse it in cooking. Now I'm going to put off the butter I was making this afternoon to go out and buy some nylons. I read into your post that multiple boils could...

Mr. Gator, I've read this thread from it's beginning and I recall you've made several references to a need for odour control and you've also mentioned limited available power, 20 amps for all your needs, also that you're in a multi unit building and you have an east and a west window. I'd...

marshal88, Herb Zen and others re missing butter. According to Wikipedia commercial butter is 80% fat, 15% water and I assume the remaining 5% is milk solids. The water in the butter is going to end up in the water you added as a heat control medium and as milk solids are water soluble I'm...

Thanks Gator from a half a square metre grower. My last grow under lights had three of my four babies decide to be boys so while they got to go live in the corner of my yard with the bottom half of my previous grow and make them mothers, their sister was left to fill a lot more space than...

What a great idea kev, so simple and a great presentation! and thanks to FS for running with it. My wife is a big fan of edibles, a taste she developed in a misspent old age involving trips to Amsterdam, and she's been after me for days to make budder. Of course me being me, I need the stars...

Well I hope our friend Ultra is just on a self imposed sabbatical. Anyway, I decided to try the cure on a 10g bud. There was nothing scientific about mine, plain tap water in a large pickle jar changed daily for the first 3 days and then twice a day for 4. The first thing I noticed was the...

I find my first pass through is best done with side cutters. I can do much finer work using the tip of the blades and they just blow through any stems plus they're much more comfortable to the hand. Then I chop with scissors.
