Worms absolutely love cannabis!
Worm food!
IMG_20231017_130043329.jpg

I've had this worm been running for 42 days now . They have bred. I saw tiny babies today when I fed them the above.
That will be gone in about three days.
I sat there and chopped it up with my scissors while watching TV.
With as much food as they have eaten so far, I think I'm gonna let them clean up what I have in there currently and then add the second tier. The bedding material is getting pretty hefty . Each tier has the little holes at the bottom so that the worms can move up through.

That restaurant that I ate at last month didn't have any oyster shells that they wanted to share .
Since I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow, I will stop off at Wally's world and get a few of some ceramic containers I saw that would work great. They are about three inches square and about two inches deep. This is what I'm going to put my homemade 'worm chow' In and place the containers in my big pots and put one in my worm bin.
 
I have been tasked with making a lot of gummies. The recipe has improved some and we are quite happy with the current iteration. I'll post you two versions. They both work for smaller batches. You have less oil than we usually use but your potency might be higher. The recipe should still work fine as it's not that big a difference.

I usually use 50ml oil, your 30 is going to be just fine.

Easiest: All ingredients can be found at the grocery store/Target/Walmart

First thing you need to do is go find lecithin. Soy or Sunflower. I could not find a liquid bottle of it but there were pure lecithin capsules in the health/pills/vitamin area. They work. If you can't find this you will have to order it online.

I would recommend a "cherry" flavor as it's the easiest to find matching ingredients. If you try and keep everything the same flavor it blends better and helps hide any of the weedy taste.

Ingredients:
Cherry Kool-aid. The pouches or the plastic bottles. I like the pre-mix for ease, concentrated flavor, and sweetness.
Cherry "Mio" or whatever liquid water flavoring brand.
Cherry Jello
Plain Knox Gelatin (or store brand. the packets work fine)
Lecithin
Corn Syrup
Citric Acid powder - I found this in the canning section at Target


Recipe: I do them all by weight with a decent coffee scale. Just add your oil and mix.

Oil (I usually aim for 50g)
110g Kool-aid
8g "Mio"
1.5g citric acid
5-7g Lecithin - If you got capsules I used 5
50g corn syrup
45g Jello
15g plain gelatin (typically 2 of the packets)

I use a small pot on the stove, medium heat, add each ingredient and stir until it dissolved well. Jello goes last. Add it slow and stir it in until the clumps are gone. Do raise the heat until it is just shy of a boil, stay low on the heat. You do want to see it roiling and starting to bubble. It does not take much. Stir stir stir.

We have a mold of all squares so they are all the same size, potency, dose. Use whatever you like. I pipette the liquid into the mold and use a pot of hot water to set the small pot in. Basically a double boiler but just to keep the mix hot so it doesn't set while I work. It takes a few tries to get your method down.



The Improved recipe: A bit more shelf stable.

Buy plain gelatin off amazon. Get the ultraclear versions. I use "Custom Collagen" brand.
Guar Gum - A thickener and binder. Similar to lecithin but some people don't like the taste of lecithin.
Potassium Sorbate - A preservative

Recipe is the same & I stick with the same 45g Jello and 15g plain gelatin. Just add in Potassium Sorbate and Guar Gum.

3g potassium sorbate
2g Guar Gum
3.5g Lecithin ( I bought the liquid and my patient preferred with lecithin in addition to the guar gum)



Good luck! There are lots of recipes out there. Test, tune, and have fun with it.
U make life difficult bro!
Jello/water/tincture/oil/lecithin are my only ingredients and they are bomb! I got people paying $50 a dozen for them! ;)

They don’t come out like jello they come out just like gummies! 100% shelf stable but I wouldn’t put a baggy of them in your pocket unless u want a glob of gummies!

Thank you D I appreciate the time 🍻
 
Howdy all I have a couple questions for you experts as I’m wondering how far approx 30 ml of potent coconut oil would get me. Approx how many milliliters would I be adding to a gummy recipe thats using just one 3oz box of jello? Or if I was making a box of brownies? And if the oil was really potent would some drops under my tongue be effective?

Sorry for all the rosin related questions all the time but it’s y’all’s fault for making buy a press 🤣
This lady is now back at making videos! She has some outstanding recipes for just about anything! I know she has some good gummy recipes. She shows you exactly how to do them!
 
Got her all trimmed up wife quit half way said it was too much. Which she was more then I was expecting pulled almost a lb from her :yoinks::woohoo1::shooty:

Night Owl Bubblegum Queen 441 grams plus 30 grams I took 2 weeks earlier :woohoo1: Too bad I didn’t journal her:doh::oops1::naughtystep:

I have 15 pucks that have only been pressed once and I was thinking about soaking them one at a time in about 50-60ml of oil
How do you decarb? It's a must! And you really do need heat to infuse also.
One puck at a time just won't work and there's really no need to do that,
Well since you got a press you do need one of these I think! It's what I use! And I have made a lot of infused coconut oil and MCT oil and one person wanted olive oil............. He wanted it on his salads.
It's so easy doing it with this device! First you decarb and then you infuse! One button touch!
This is the Ardent FX.

This is the latest MCT infusion. It is comprised of THC/CBD girls dry ice hash.
Two droppers will put my big ass to sleep for 6 to 7 hours six to seven hours.
I also have a jar of infused MCT oil That was made from one plant. It is some potent stuff!

So I had let my 2 biggest plants go for until now (about 10 weeks, I think?) without any trimming or defoliating. But I've noticed some dead and rotting leaves in the inside of the canopy and it was downright wet in there. So I spent about 2 hours defoliating one of my plants. tomorrow I need to do the other. Its not as leafy. the one I did today had TONS of tiny little leaves with super long stems that were a huge pain. The one I will do tomorrow has less leaves, and they are bigger.

I'm a fan of quality vs. Quantity. I trimmed the heaviest i think iv had gone during this current grow. Damn bugs and the water spray to kill them caused a lot of the leave to die back. I just hacked away.
