I've heard of Cannabutter anyone have any experience with that?
You can get cooking oils as well. Make your own infused snacks with it. You just need some recipes.

You can make the butters yourself out of sugar leaf.

do you want a recipe for edibles? let me hook you up.

buy a container of coconut oil. then take whatever weed or product you want and chop it up. doesnt have to be grinded but busted good.

take equal parts water & coconut oil and put those into a crock pot / slow cooker. (usually a cup of each is more than adequate)

put that on low for 12 hours with you product mixed in.

strain that through a cheese cloth or an old t-shirt into a glass drinking glass...it only matters that is glass and not tapered. doesnt have to be a drinking glass.

put that in the fridge and come back in about 8 hours. the water will be settled at the bottom and your coconut oil infused butter will be at the top.

just tap it out (over a sink) and keep the oil, it shuold resemble a puck like this. (this is a puck of 8 grams of flower and a whole plants worth of trim




take this and substitute it for anything that requires butter in baking.

you're welcome.

How have I missed this thread???

I'm currently studying for my whiz quiz for the fall shutdown season. That makes caring for my little friends a daily frustration. Gonna be a great winter though.:D

Currently have a couple NL autos, a candy cane auto, and an early vixen photo on the go. It's my first time getting serious about this after being a very long time consumer.

I know NL is super common, but does anyone have any experience with the early vixen or the candy cane strains? I've got some auto white widow in the mail as well, if anyone has any experience that they would like to share.
TIA
(this place keeps getting better:) )

crop kings seeds right? I have heard mixed reviews. some say they grow great but the potency is not there. others say their plants turn hermie. some people say its good stuff but the majority give crop kings bad reviews..which is unfortunate because their customer services cant be beat.

I usually use Greenhouse seeds. I have used Jordan of the Island with lots of success. same with Nirvana seeds.

right now I have 2 white rhino seedlings (greenhouse seeds) and 3 dark angel (crop king) that are about a week old. I will let you know how it goes with the crop kings as I have never grown with them before.

I also have a Pineapple Purps that is about 3 weeks away from harvest (I got the seed from a dispensary) , and I have 2 sweet mango autoflowers (greenhosue seeds) 2 weeks into flower right now on my deck outside. everything i grow indoors is done with LED. if you take the time you can follow 2 of my previous grows in this thread.

Yeah, the candy cane and early vixen are crop king. CK seems to be all that is stocked locally at the head shops. It didn't take me long to realize I wanted more selection and better prices.The northern lights auto are Nirvana, and I have some feminized NL coming along with the white widow, also from Nirvana.

I'm looking forward to seeing your experiences with CK, and I'll try to update with my progress.

where are you located man? crop kings dominate the seed game around where I live (Okanagan BC)

Nirvana are wicked seeds, you should have no problems with their northern lights and white widow.

speaking of white widow, I just finished off a kalashnikova (white widow x ak 47) about 5 weeks ago and got 3 ounces off of the plant (my previous setup only allowed me to grow 1 plant in the grow box but I get between 2 - 3 ounces per grow).

3 zips off one plant is sweet. I'm working through the thread right now. Looking forward to checking out your set up.

I'm in Edmonchuk. I only checked a few places, but it's all CK, everywhere

Howard Moon @Howard Moon here are some pics brotha

my grow box, converted from a dresser to a grow box. 300w LED, growing in a hempy style bucket.

I took the white SCROG screen out as it was useless. I still LST etc.

damn. the closest you can get greenhouse seeds are in Calgary. there is only one shop in the okanagan valley that stocks greenhouse seeds. so I order all my seeds through them. you could too more than likely and have them mail it out to you. unfortunately, greenhouse doesnt sell to anyone in canada that isnt a distributor.

I fucking LOVED that God's Afghani. some of the best stuff I have ever smoked.

Jordan has discontinued those seeds so I am pretty bummed I cant get them anymore.

right now God's Green Crack is all the rage around BC and its from Jordan, he makes great seeds.

I am very interested in the early vixen as I went to the shop for those seeds or the crown royale but they didnt have either so I ended up getting the Dark Angel. we will see how it goes.
I cooked the shit out of my first early vixen. LED too low and fried it with too many nutes too early(I'm a compete noob). I had a second one coming on a little better, and was just into flower when I started my personal dry-out. I took one clone, revegged it for a short time(it rooted and started growing again in <10 days), and it's now back in flower in my cfl spacebucket. I should have topped it, but its one cola is budding out really nicely. It's still putting out single leaves, but seems very healthy.

The mother plant I took the clone from was, as I said, starting to flower. I was resisting my dryout(fucking piss tests) so I ended up smoking the little baby buds. Even that early they had a sweet taste and gave a decent buzz.
What remained was basically a stump with 3 branches and no vegetation. I thought wtf and tossed it back in my main grow box. The damn thing actually survived and is putting out lots of little leaves, some with serrated edges, some completely smooth.

I'll let you know how they turn out.

no worries on being a noob man! we all start somewhere!

if you have any questions just ask. we got all sorts of growers and users on this site.

I dont mess with mothers and cloning etc. I go from seed every time. I find its easier and the plants are just better overall.

what do you use for growing medium? soil? what kind of nutrients?

Thanks for the photos. Nice buds!

As for seeds, when this next order arrives, I'll be set for a while. I also have some gibberellic acid on order so I can experiment with cross breeding. I'm not looking to create new strains, just to get free seeds.
Gibberellic Acid (G3) | The MMA Community Forum

My setup is pretty similar, size wise, so you give me hope. I have a custom built 3' wide by 4' tall by 1-1/2' deep box, painted flat white, with a 300w galaxyhydro LED and a couple other LED grow bulbs to help out. I also have the cfl spacebucket, and am currently setting up what will be a second LED box.

sounds like you got it going okay for now! I have had many different grow systems, but the box, with using a hempy style grow with the LST is the best I have done personally. I just sold my dispensary a few weeks ago so right now I am thinking of getting into the grower / supplier side of things.

my best advice for your grow box is to not let them veg longer than 3 weeks. after that you'll need to do some serious care to make sure the LED doesnt scorch them. 4 weeks is too long....I have made this mistake before haha.

I did a ton of reading before I got started and have continued to devour what knowledge I can find. I have a good understanding of the basics, but I realize now it's time for the knowledge that only hands-on growing will bring. I'm very much a 'teach a man to fish' kinda guy, hence the interest in clones and breeding.

I'm growing in primarily organic soil right now, but am also researching hydro, dwc, coco-coir, etc for the future.

I will definitely consult you more seasoned growers when I hit a snag, once my stubborn ass has failed. Thanks again for your help.

Just a quick update on my Crop King Candy Cane autos.
I'm admittedly just getting started on my journey, but I can safely say my experience with this strain is an emphatic thumbs down. The first seed dwarfed and stopped growing at 6 inches or so and the second seed didn't even pop. I've got a third going, which I started a few days before one of my NL autos.
Now I understand that NL is famously easy to grow, but it has already passed the CC is size and is far more robust, in less than 2 weeks. They are in the same box, receiving the same treatment. The CC is droopy and weak while the NL flourishes.

The Early Vixen is faring far better. The one I stripped down to its stem is gamely throwing out leaves, and may actually provide a harvest, despite all the abuse I gave it. The clone in the spacebucket is continuing to flower nicely. When lightly handled, the leaves give off a sweet, fruity smell that I love, and the buds are swelling by the day.

It's going to be a rough few months, finishing flowering, harvesting and curing while unable to indulge. :) :(

I'm taking a break from concentrate and I need a desktop vaporizer. My PAX 2 isn't pulling very well. Any recommendations?
