...so I gave it the ultimatum
Comments (15)Oh, sorry, it was the rose cuttings, I was talking about. I used to take cannabis for medical purposes. Currently I've been able to master the technique of behavioural modification for my symptoms, so I no longer grow or use it. Cannabis has extremely potent medicinal qualities, and is completely legal to grow for any purpose in Spain. We have the political problems in USA and Canada that our legislature is beholden to big money and corporations. Big Pharma, the Distilleries, Big Tobacco, Law Enforcement and Detention Industries all make massive profits by keeping cannabis illegal, and there is a racism aspect to it as well, since the Latino and especially the African American prefer cannabis, and this is a handy excuse to keep them in jail. Which is a real shame. I have personal experience, and cannabis really is nature's gift to man. Right now, however, it's just roses and clivias for me. The name cannabisgrower was still available when I registered, and since I'm proud of my skills in cannabis cultivation, I took it. Peace, Sativa....See MoreNEW: 2014 theme garden swap
Comments (113)My seeds came yesterday, but I have not had time to look at them. I'll post later with the high points. Thanks MIchelle, for another successful swap. Finally had a chance to open my envelope. Everyone sent great seeds and I will be sowing a lot of them this season. The most creative referenced the poultry and egg garden, including several plumes, Turkey Craw pole beans, a couple of feathers and one Cranesbill, not to mention a couple of foxes in the hen house (Foxgloves). I am always surprised and delighted by some of the associations people make in this swap. Other themes got nice seeds too and poor Miss Lottie could not help but be encouraged by all the different kinds of Marigold. Thanks again!

Comments (14)I have spent more than eight years perfecting a set of cookies where there is no cannabis taste, that are undetectable by airport dogs, and are as accurate a dose as possible. I'm more than happy to send anyone who is interested a free sample. cookiemonster at fawnridge dot com is the only to make that request. Please don't do it here. In the old days, and you can define that word any way you like, we didn't know about decarbing, about making cannabutter, about infusions. All we knew was get the box of Duncan Hines brownie mix, grind up an ounce - stems, seeds, and all - at bake it in with the brownies. Alice B Toklas be praised. With current technology, we have control over the quality and needed quantity for the required effect. Yes, you can still get duffed if you eat too much (heaven knows I've tried) but for the most part, you can control your intake very easily while your tolerance is low because of the smaller doses available. 5mg and 10mg gummies, candy bars, and other edibles make it easy and safe for the casual user to enjoy a buzz. And how much do you need? Using my favorite strain - Blueberry Kush - as an example, will give you an idea of how different edible usage is compared to smoking. A single spliff contains around 75mg of THC. You lose most of that from just burning the ganja. So, your net intake, if you don't share, is around 25mg of THC. Blueberry Kush is a very powerful Indica, running around 25% THC by weight. It's probably better than what you're smoking now, unless you live in a legal state. The cookies in the picture have approximately 150mg of THC in each one. (The new technique has added at least 30mg to the old cookie.) So, if you bought a box of ten gummies at 10mg of THC each, you could eat two of them and get a good buzz. If you ate the whole box, you'd be trashed and probably have agita. If you tried to smoke six joints of Blueberry Kush, BY YOURSELF, you'd be wasted, have a serious sore throat, and probably pass out before you lit the third one. Just for comparison, most of the folks I ship to eat either a quarter of a cookie at a time, or two or three whole ones a day. A quarter of a cookie is around 37mg of THC, a full dooby and a couple of hits off a second one....See MoreBrownies: then and now (cannabis, of course)
Comments (16)Hi Louise - If I am making cannabutter in the crock pot I do grind it finely in a coffee grinder first, put 1 oz. into a mason jar and decarboxylate in the oven for ~1 hour at 220F. Melt 2 lbs. unsalted butter in a crock pot on low, add cannabis and cook for 3-4 hours stirring every 30 minutes. Then I put a layer of cheese cloth into a fine metal mesh strainer and pour the butter through that. You will probably end up with a little over 1.5 lbs if you get every drop you can. Then I spoon it into ice cube trays and put it in fridge until solidified....See Morefawnridge (Ricky)
