OK Kids! It's time to gather round... :group: Spark up your green and check this out. I want to share a recipe with you guys that has helped the Wife and I SO MUCH that we no longer have to take Vicoden, Flexiril, Naproxen, Flector Pain Patches, and Sleep Aids.. Rx and OTC. So basically no pain killers, no muscle relaxers, no anti inflammatories/nsaids, or sleep aids such as ambien or PMs... Tylenol or Generic...
Canna Olive Oil. I will tell you how to make it. What you need. Specifically WHAT you need to make the best most affective oil. And I will ask Brother DubV (who cared enough to show us the way to chemical FREE pain relief) to correct me if I'm wrong or jump in on things I missed. :thumbs:
Materials:
28 Grams of Trim (1 Ounce DRY). What you put in is what you get out of it so consider that when choosing WHAT trim you will use... I prefer sweet leaf only meticulously trimmed so only the parts with trichs get in the mix. Also cuts back on the plant taste in the end product. *You can always water cure if you don't want to taste any Canna in the end product.*
FIRST PRESS Extra Virgin Olive Oil. I stress FIRST PRESS because if you use anything else, your Oil will NOT come out the same. It will Burn and taste like sh*t. And First Press is better FOR you. Now, I'm sure you are going "Where the hell can I get First Press Olive Oil..." You'd be surprised... Wal Mart!! Believe it or not... Wal Mart carries very good First Cold Press Olive Oil (straight from Cali!) that IS actually what it says it is... It's called California Olive Ranch...

That link is so you can see the actual bottle... a 750ml bottle runs just under $10... That can get you quite a few runs...
Crock Pot. Any Crock Pot you can set on the lowest setting is good. I bought a $30 at Wal Mart just for this.
Cheesecloth. I got mine at Jo-Ann Fabric craft stores. I got this one...

Strainer. I used a Ball's Canning Strainer and set another strainer inside it. This Oneida Silver Strainer I also purchased at Wal Mart. Works very well.
You don't NEED these but I purchased like 4 of these for different batches...

Directions:
Take 28 grams of sweet leaf and place it in the Crock Pot. Try not to mash it down or smash it up. Just place it in there. Take 1 1/4 cup of Olive Oil and pour it in the crock pot with the trim. Cover the Crock Pot and set it on low for 5-6 hrs. My crock runs a bit hotter so I do it for 5 other wise it will burn and taste burnt. DO NOT STIR THE OIL. Just set it and forget it!
Once it's ready shut the Crock Pot off and let it cool down. I like to remove the Pot from the heater and let it cool down that way. It may take up to an hour to cool down. Once it's cooled down strain the mixture through the cheesecloth, through a strainer, and into whatever you like really... I use a Mason Jar... being careful not to get ANY trim into the final mixture. I also Double up the cheesecloth... with that and the second strainer you'll be good. Once you strained it carefully remove the cheesecloth with the trim/mixture inside of it and squeeze the access over the strainer into your jar. You can also do this any way is best for you. Just be sure to not get any trim in the final product.
Now you can take it once it's cooled down. Potency varies by trim. For example if you use S.A.D. trim you will have some seriously strong oil. For night time most likely! So oil potency depends on the potency of your trim.
For first time usage I would recommend starting at 1/4 teaspoon and go up from there if it's not potent enough. Everyone is different so you will have to play with it to "dial yourself in" so to speak...
I don't think I missed anything but... I will have Dub chime in and anyone else... Noods... who are also oil users... please feel free to correct me or contribute! These kinds of thread to me belong to AFN so all info is appreciated!
Quick Testimonial:
The Wife and I were in a bad car wreck in March of 2010 when a neglegent driver ran a red light doing 50 mph T-Boning us in the intersection on my driver's side...
Me personally it has helped with Nerve Pain (I have two severed nerves in my left thigh), Permanent Muscle Damage (My Left Quadripcep received severe trauma... Which resulted in a 3 month long Hematoma which left my quad permanently damaged). Left Knee Pain/Arthritis from ACL Replacement and being compromised in the wreck. Left Shoulder Bursitis from the seatbelt. Nerve Damage and Permanent Rib Damage in my back shoulder blade area from the Air bag deploying in the seat. Tendonitis in my left bicep and elbow from the impact. Hell I WAS the point of impact so this oil is a LIFE SAVER.
My Wife suffered 2 Herniated discs in her neck in the wreck (C7 & C8). Permanent muscle damage from the seat belt tearing her muscle as she went basically through the first stage of decapitation. Lower back pain from previous back surgery and arthritis resulting from... She also suffers from Usher's Syndrome and Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) which is near deafness from nerve damage at birth and RP comes on later in life as slow vision loss to permanent blindness. She's at the stage right before being totally blind. Total Night Blindness and no peripheral vision at all. Her right eye is nearly blind and since the wreck she has had a gold swiriling light constantly in her right eye. Whether it's closed or not... So you can imagine mentally what she deals with. The Oil calms her anxiety and anger. As she was not born blind... it started at 20 and she's 33 now. Being on Vicoden, and all the other chemical poison will only put her on the fast track to total blindness... as nearly ALL of them f*ck up your eyes/vision after years of use.
So this oil does more than take pain away. It's amazing for depression, anxiety, anger management/issues, and basically centering yourself so you can function during the day and do what you need to do to survive and live a full life. So I IMPLORE YOU if you are like us and have daily pain that needs management... TRY THIS OIL!!! And start a chemical free pain management daily regimen that actually WORKS. :thumbs:
