Tincture question

[alltatup]

quirk

What you say is very akin what I have experienced using my tinctures over the past 6 months. "Such a sense of well being" says it all, and my joint pain slowly but surely decreased; it's really amazing how it crept up on me, as my being got more and more saturated with and adjusted to the medicine. For real, my consciousness has been transformed, and I'm moving closer and closer to 0 anxiety. My relationship to what I perceive as the nature of reality has shifted, both within and without. My focus is on Mother Nature now, not Trump. My relationships are more serene.

I will definitely try eating the bud at night after I make my next tincture.

May I ask, what strains do you prefer? My best tincture so far:
White Widow (Dutch Passion, genetics: "Genuine 1980s F1 White Widow Southern India indica x Brasilian sativa."),
Iced Grapefruit (Fem. Sds, Ice x Grapefruit, Sat. dom.), and
Lithium OG Kush (Nirvana, OG Kush x Master Kush).

I absolutely love making my own hybrid combinations; the synergy becomes so powerful. I'm also a devoted member of the kush club, which I love to vape.

I made a CBD Nordle tincture--excellent and serene. My Source extractor arrived yesterday, so today I'm making some CBD Nordle oil for my vape pen.

quirk I always wondered about that left over bud if there was any thing left to it so now I know thanks .

you guys are so far ahead of me but i'll catch up just finished up decarbing almost a lb this will be my tincture supply

their are two strains that i have I is in jars and the other I havent tried yet but sounds amazing [h=1]Alien Vs Triangle Auto Feminised Seeds[/h] Mephisto Genetics

this was my last Auto holy crap I smoked a half a doobie and had to go take a nap got up smoked the other half and wanted to go back for another nap , now I smoke a joint just before bed to get to sleep but I eat a pea sized piece of hand hash , seedsman is out of stock on these and when they are back i'm jumping on some to make rso or tincture , Now the difference between rso and a tincture is that with a tincture you dont evap the alcohol correct
[h=1]Cream & Cheese CBD Feminised Seeds by seedsman[/h] this strain says it has a thc of 22% and a cbd of 18 percent I will be either growing these just before the grow challenge
or right after it depends if the black zombie clones make it

@ATU If you hadn't started decarbing your bud I never would of made the Rso oil that made me sleep all night and not have a night like quirk described ,so thank you so much

 

[quirk]

Thanks so much for the pm. We may be on a parallel course. Zensation and CBD Star. Oldjarhead100 mentioned a strain w/18% CBD that I'm going to try. Thanks alltatup.

oldjarhead100 I always reduce my volume by half after extraction and have never reduced it to oil. Yet. Thanks for the heads up on the cream & cheese. Enclosed is a pic of, and this is pretty weird, Alien V Triangle F2- 9 day from sprout.

 

[oldjarhead100]

Your going to love that some kick ass shit , I broke a branch off about a week before I harvested her I dried and tried some real no down stuff, then when I harvested it doesn't seem to have the same punch so the branch had mostly clear to cloudy the harvested plant had cloudy with some amber ,my next grow of Alien I'm going to harvest half when they are clear to cloudy

 

[alltatup]

Those strains look fabulous, quirk!! ;-}

 

[alltatup]

oldjarhead100 You are another one who's recognizing the progressive effects of using concentrates for medicinal purposes, and I think it makes a huge difference from smoking it (combustion destroys so much of the medicine). What really amazes me is how it builds up and builds up over a period of months, and like quirk said above, it just keeps getting better.

Cannabis tinctures/other concentrates make being an elder (I detest the term "senior") so much happier, more relaxed, pain-free.

 

[oldjarhead100]

Quirk is your alien and auto thats what mine was and thats the one I'm buying lol that is funny how you were already growing them

TINCTURE FOR THE HEART AND SOUL

This batch has everything but the kitchen sink in it: around 30 grams of Critical, Night Queen, Euforia, 8 Ball Kush, and CBD Nordle. Plus some tincture from a quick wash of the decarbed sugar leaves from my micro grow (all but Nordle).

The tincture sat in the freezer and got shaken daily for around 5 days. I used my KorLor420 silk rosin bags to strain and re-strain the tincture. It was amazing to see all the trichome epidermal cells (outside "skin") that settle at the bottom of the tincture. They strained right out this time; see the light brown stuff in the bags. The light-colored liquid in the pic was what I got out after washing the buds a second time!!!

I will be reducing this tincture to around 50%--turn 32 oz into 16-- in my Source extractor, and it will be ready and waiting for me when I get out of the f..king hospital!!! Woo hoo!!

 

[Dutchman1]

I don't mean to be negative alltatup but the green color denotes your still getting too much chlorophyll in your tincture. Its not going to hurt anything just makes it taste much stronger. There are ways to avoid that. Also 50% reduction is still going to have alot of alcohol. Do you take it sublingualy? Thats gonna burn alot at that level. If you reduce it from 32 ounces to say 6 or 8 that will remove much of the alcohol and if you then add a little glycerin it will make it easy to take in the mouth. Plus it will be much stronger and youll only need 5-10 drops.

 

[Dutchman1]

Ive strained some batches down to .022 um which effectively removes all mold spores including bud rot spores. Its a pain but when your making medicine for people with compromised immune systems you need to make sure your not gonna kill em, ha.

 

[Dutchman1]

This is what I shoot for

 

[alltatup]

Dutchman1 Chlorophyll doesn't bother me in my tincture: you don't want chlor. in your vapeable and smokeable concentrates, but it doesn't hurt anything in tincture. There are also benefits to chlor.

I always mix my tincture w/ oj: been taking it that way for months, works just perfect...

 

[Dutchman1]

And that's the bottom line. If it ain't broke don't fix it. Glad it's working for you alltatup. I remember now you mentioned you take it in morning oj. I keep mine in a 1/2 ounce spray bottle. Easy to carry, very discreet and it allows me to "swirl" it around in my mouth especially under tongue. Some of the drug enters the blood stream pretty quick and it bypasses your liver.

 

[alltatup]

I just mix a little bit of oj in with my drops of tincture, hold under the tongue for a while and swallow. My liver does NOT want to miss out on the fun!! ;-}
