:headbang: Oh yeah, since this is a ME deal here, how about some of Maine's Own Blueberry? A blast from the past, brought back by HighRise seeds and with the help of one of our founders several years ago,.. still the very best blueberry variant I've had to date!

:smoking: thanks TT, indeed that's a very good point on the residuals,... I figured if anything, it'd be CO2 extracts used to eliminate this type contamination,... kief too! I must admit, I'm not one who enjoys edibles, never liked the way it affects me before, so I have zero experience working with them... but it's such an important part of the industry these days, and having had family use edibles/tinctures for truly medical reasons, I have to learn all I can! I appreciate you sharing the "insider" info with us... :eyebrows: .......
More questions [emoji3]-- how do you process your trim for kief? .... since it's fresh terpene-intact material, do the aromatics make it through the cooking process much, and impart flavors as well? Strain depending, I can see how this might be good, or reaaaaally funky! :chef: :rofl:
It depends on what I'm making how I utilize the keys. I've tried many methods but as far as incorporating it into cooking it's easy if your recipe calls for oil or butter or anything of that nature because as we all know those infusions are pretty simple to make with consistency however things like hard candy become more of a challenge because it doesn't require any oil and everything is water soluble. You can easily just throw some kief in some chocolate and make a batch but your dosing won't be consistent. So I cook the kief into the oil with a very thorough straining process. You can buy flavorings that work great if you're just looking for a simple way to ingest them

.... :thumbsup: ahhh, no wonder the candy has such nice clarity! ---very smart, girlfriend- :d5: I can see how this is a wise choice, simpler, faster to process, no PITA specialty equipment to deal with,... all hands on too, from start to packing = highest quality control! :greencheck:
 
Good afternoon @Trichome Treats ! I apologize I couldn't be here sooner, the internet went out all morning and finally came up!

I have a question for you and I apologize if it was asked before (I didn't see it on the last few pages,) but do you possibly carry nutritional information for any of the edibles/treats that you make? I have several people in my life with type 1 diabetes and watching/counting carbohydrates is very important for them. Further, do you offer any low sugar or sugar-alternative options for your goods? Thank you!

Maine doesn't require content labeling but my products are gluten-free and dairy-free. I would absolutely make custom items using a sugar-free alternative like Splenda if someone needed that for diabetes. I will say though the CBD actually helps diabetes and my mom who's a type 2 diabetic and has started using 50 mg one to two times daily in the last couple months and she's seen her numbers go down because she's not craving that sugar as much because she can satisfy it with a very small candy and get some relief as well. The 25 mg hard candies are barely the size of the tip of my thumb so the sugar content is very low but definitely could be made with a substitute.
