Carcass' $150 Low Budget Grow 2019

[Carcass]

wait carcass, are you using coconut oil for the first time?

Not yet-I just bought the coconut oil yesterday afternoon...but I'm going to start the process later today.
I'll probably stick pretty close to my last weed/oil ratio,give or take a few grams-2.5 oz is a lot of weed...
I've still got a cup of the grapeseed stuff, I'll probably make gummies for my daughter with it-she'd never done any edibles before she tried my gummies, she discovered she really likes the way edibles work (as do I)
and she doesn't care if they're a little greasy, as long as they're free!

I was a line cook and an excellent pizza chef. Lol

By necessity I'm the family chef. If I waited for my wife to cook, I'd starve, unless she was hungry. Even then chances are all she'd do is make herself a sandwich.

 

[ChefDGreen]

My wife just eats half the piece of bread and puts it back in the bag when she’s hungry
she’s a chef also... but when you’re not forced to cook sometimes it’s hard to bring yourself to do it

 

[InTheShed]

That probably applies to a number of professions. I use to do photography for a hobby in NY and carried my SLR everywhere I went. Then I became a professional photographer and wouldn't even walk out the door with my camera for under $100.

 

[ChefDGreen]

Cooking is a bit different though... you don’t have to take pictures to survive. You have to eat to survive.... also I’ll cook for 14 hours straight with no other breaks than droppin a deuce and checking my notifications for 5-10 minutes.... the last the thing i want to do when i get home is cook..

 

[InTheShed]

no other breaks than droppin a deuce and checking my notifications for 5-10 minutes

"no other breaks than droppin a deuce, washing my hands, and checking my notifications for 5-10 minutes"

I hope anyway...

 

[ChefDGreen]

Come now, the professionalism is implied. I don’t mean to toot my own horn, but I’m head and shoulders above most in the kitchen.... I should start publishing recipes on my journal...

edit: I also sanitize my phone with TB killing sanitary wipes

 

[Carcass]

Speaking of cooking (or de-carbing)-here's 2.5 oz of Purple Punch and GDPxGumberry buds,about to go into a 240f oven for a couple hours...

Then into the MBM2 for 8+8 hours with refined coconut oil...

Nice foil pouch technique!

 

[Carcass]

Nice foil pouch technique!

I learned from the best!

 

[Carcass]

I stuck a bunch of Peyote Critical shake (I forgot i had it) in there before it went into the oven-another good thing about the foil pouch-it's re-sealable!

Here's the finished product from the infusion process that I started yesterday afternoon-
8hrs@160f /cool down/ 8 more hrs @160F (per @InTheShed -Thanks!)
Sorry I didn't get more pics-my hands were too oily to touch a camera...

Hot stuff:

And cooled off :

Looks a little like pea soup...
So that's 2.5oz of pot, in 2.25 cups of refined coconut oil-enough for about 200 gummies....

My first batch is going to be for a friend of mine- he says cannabis, specifically THC, helps
with his PTSD and Parkinson's disease, so we'll see if these gummies are good for more than
just getting me and Mrs.C high af ......

That's all for now-just wanted to finish what I started yesterday!
Have a great week everyone!

 

[InTheShed]

and good on ya for helping out a friend in need!

only 200 off of 2.5c of oil!?? That’s crazy talk... what size are your gummies?? Mine are 2ml, and I use 1/3c of oil for ~200 pieces.

 

[Carcass]

Mine are pretty good size-The bears are 4.25g and the legos are 6.5g- Till you brought it up, I never really counted how many I make- I thought 50 or so-but I actually checked the molds right now,and I was a little low on my guess...
I make 20 legos and 44-48 bears,so 64-68 per batch or apx 256 total- I use 1/2 cup of oil per batch.
They do go a long ways,since i only need one..

 

[Carcass]

and good on ya for helping out a friend in need!

Thanks,Shed- His Parkinsons ,till about a week ago,had only affected his left side,but
last week it started affecting his right side too- He's also a recovering alcoholic,so he's been hesitant to use anything psychoactive to treat it- but shit's gettin real now.
Hopefully the gummies give him some relief...Parkinsons is one F_cked up disease...

 

[ChefDGreen]

That’s interesting... you made me curious so I went and weighed one. My gummies are 2.15g, and I typically take 2 if I want to get stoned. I’ve only ever used fan leaves and trim... never buds.
my last run I used 68g of dried/decarbed material. The material is half the potency of buds at most..probably a lot less. That 68g made something like 220 2.15g gummies.. or 110 4.3g like yours.

I don’t cook my material in the oil though, I use ethanol. I like how I leave behind absolutely 100% of the chlorophyll...ive read that chllorophyll interferes with cannabinoids in edibles.

How'd you guess what she cooks?

I canned soups and stews when the price of the ingredients was low, back in the fall. It's my fall-back.
