    Old Weed

    I just smoked the weed you see pictured. It is from a hermied Blackjack seed from Nirvana that was jarred 7-25-2019. It still knocks you silly. This is the last of it.

      On top of that SoOrbudgal, the seed was 4 years old.

    I've been working off a jar of bud that's 2 years old. The bud is a little on the harsh side but still knocks me on my ass.

      kingfish your old bud looks way nicer than my old bud. Yours still has some green. Mine has mostly faded, but it still does the trick

      I have at least an ounce or more left from every grow I’ve ever done (ok probably not as impressive as it sounds... from about 7 or 8 grows). I can’t use it fast enough! I’ve taken to tossing some in when I am processing the trim for edibles.

        Thanks bboy, I hadn’t heard that one. Burp the one you are using first and seal the others tight. When you open the un-burped ones they still have colour but do you notice any difference with the cure? No rougher? In any case I’ll give it a try (I am about 5 weeks out from the next harvest)

        The ones that go unopened for months are better. More flavor and smoother.

        Nice, I wouldn’t have thought to try it but it does make a certain amount of sense. I am guessing it is a more anaerobic cure that will work well if given more time. Definitely worth trying. Cheers.

      I currently have 20-25 strains on hand. Grow way more than I could ever smoke, plus a buddy and I trade with each grow. Taking a short summer break after the current grow to reduce stock. Oldest is from 2019.

          Farmbuck so far so good i moved the plants up closer ( i don't do the yo yo ) to the light. Had them at 25" look fine so raised them up with more blocks of wood. and risers. I will try in a couple days to bring them up to at least 20" then feed some bloom.

            SoOrbudgal I have the Wild Thai seeds but it'll be a long photo sativa grow. The above is old Lime Skunk. I'm trying to start some autos for inventory in-between. See my recent post.

          I can't wait to have some "old bud". I smoke it too fast to end up with an overabundance that I can set aside to age. I can't wait to try the GroveBags for it. Has anyone got to use theirs for long term storage yet? Last time I tried to save some weed it didn't turn out that great. It could be because it was from one of my first grows, or it could be my storage method. Either way it was pretty terrible, had a decent high but that's all really. Maybe it's also partially because I've become a weed snob since my quality has improved tremendously. But hey, aren't we allowed to be a bit snobby when we grow our own dispensary quality (or better) weed?

            Its looks very lovely. Nothing wrong with old weed. It’s like a good old bottle of wine. And it's very useful for alternative treatment.

              My theory it's CBN pot. There's not a lot of scientific study on the "degradation" of THC to CBN. The word "degradation" is in quotes because some people call this change "degradation" but CBN is a valuable cannabinoid, not fully understood. Keep your stored cannabis in a cool dark place, the fridge is something to consider.

              Here's the abstract from the link I cite below

              CBN and D9-THC concentration ratio as an indicator of the age of stored marijuana samples

              "The concentration of D9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabinol (CBN) in cannabis plant material (marijuana) of different varieties stored at room temperature (20-22o Celsius (C)) over a four-year period was determined. The percentage loss of THC was proportional to the storage time. On average, the concentration of THC in the plant material decreased by 16.6% ±7.4 of its original value after one year and 26.8% ±7.3, 34.5% ±7.6 and 41.4% ±6.5 after two, three and four years, respectively. A relationship between the concentration ratio of CBN to THC and the storage time was developed and could serve as a guide in determining the approximate age of a given marijuana sample stored at room temperature."

                I was looking this up earlier this week because I made what I think is CBN tincture. In a gallon mason jar here is 2 year old cannabis, it is a home created F2 strain of Forte Noir (by Dankonomics). I had a pack of Forte Noir, a male came up along with a female and they mated. Seeds are F2 in horticultural talk. The smoke is extremely potent and I wanted edible. The F2 was soaked in 200 proof food grade ethanol, the alcohol was distilled off, the oil remains and it is the best tincture I have ever had. It's a different kind of high, it must be a CBN high. CBN is psychoactive, just not the potency of THC. Old pot is the best pot.

                From Lance Griffin:
                “Δ-9-THC itself readily oxidizes to cannabinol (CBN) with oxygen and light during the decarboxylation process.” A different study published in 2005 found that this oxidation occurred above 150° C (302° F) given a 15-minute decarboxylation period. The typical decarb process employs lower temperatures and longer times to avoid this conversion and preserve Δ-9-THC; amping up the temperature may thus prove useful for CBN seekers. However, using a vacuum oven mitigates this conversion.
                Often considered mere evidence of old cannabis, CBN may soon become a minor cannabinoid of prominence. Potency (in terms of intoxication due to agonist activity at cannabinoid receptors) has been estimated from 10 to 25% compared to THC. Among its various potential therapeutic properties, CBN is most popularly associated with sedative effects. Converting THC and other cannabinoids to CBN may offer a way for product creators to diversify and meet newfound demand.

              Am I the only one who thought there was nothing wrong with the old weed? I didn’t even know that it could lose properties over the years. I used to think a plant is a plant; if you store it properly, it will maintain the same properties.
              I would also recommend you to Buy CBN Isolate and check it out. As far as I know, it’s made from old weed and mainly intended for pain relief, but if you take a little more, you will get special feelings. It is 4 less strong than THC, making it a more slowly-playing substance, but it still can knock you out for a little.
