Time to make my hemp from the garden up into coconut oil ๐ got a bit seeded so just trying to get the seeds out before I start, gonna eat them ๐ #makeyourownmeds#hemp#cbd
How to get the seeds out easier ๐คฃ
Got about 100 grams altogether ๐
Morning peeps ๐
Roughly grind your flowers and get the coconut oil melted in a slow cooker/crockpot and go for a dab while you wait ๐๐
This is where I should probably stop guesstimating ๐คฃ
I should probably have said this bit sooner but itโs early ๐ so, you DO NOT need to decarb hemp to extract the CBD, all you will do is destroy other cannabinoids that can be preserved by doing it over 3 days in a slow cooker ๐ I asked the experts ๐๐
Decided to add a bit more coconut oil ๐
Forgot about my thermometer ๐ this will come in handy ๐
Ok, so just checking the temp & itโs running a bit higher than I thought it would but Iโve made cannabis coconut oil this way before & it works ๐คทโโ๏ธ canโt cool it down ๐๐ see what happens ๐คทโโ๏ธ
๐๐๐๐คฆโโ๏ธ
Think itโs about the right temperature ๐ค
Should be ready soon ๐ temp was around 122 but got it down to 115, although I did turn it up for a few hours & it got up to 185, then I was told to keep it cooler ๐๐คฆโโ๏ธ see what happens ๐คทโโ๏ธ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
Time to strain it ๐ make sure you have some cheese cloths ready to strain it with ๐
Handy tip ๐ hope it works this time ๐คฃ๐ค
Time to strain the plant material out of the mixture ๐
Handy tip ๐๐๐๐
Time to jar it up ๐ remember to use glass as cannabinoids soak into plastic & youโll lose potency ๐
Tastes gross ๐ definitely medicine ๐๐

Decarbing dabs/concentrate for the first time ๐ anyone got any tips? ๐ Iโve put it in the oven at 120c gonna give it half hour and check on it ๐ค #CannabisCommunity#dabs#concentrate#cannabis#edibles
So the recipe says to use a cup of sugar, 1/2 a cup of light corn syrup & 1/4 a cup of water ๐ค Iโm aiming to make 20 lollies so Iโm guessing with the size of the cup ๐คทโโ๏ธ measure it out then just stick it all in a pan & heat it up to 300f ๐
Taking a bit of getting up to 300f ๐ฌ apparently the high temperature is important if you want the lollies to be hard & crunchy ๐ค
First stick the oven on at 204c (400f) to preheat.
Take your beets, the fresher the better, using a pair of scissors cut the tops & bottoms off, be careful as they do start leaking dye straight away ๐ (donโt throw the greens, they can be used in stir fries) ๐ค
Do not peel the beets! Unless you like mess ๐คฃ Give them a good scrub under the tap then put them straight onto foil without drying them, the recipe says to season but I like things to taste of what theyโre supposed to taste of ๐ so Iโve just drizzled them with olive oil ๐
Morning peeps ๐ first day without a #wakeandbake time for a tolerance break ๐ฑ wish me luck, gonna do at least 72 hours & then see if I can go any longer ๐ค๐๐ฟ๐
Update on my cannabis tolerance break, having slight issues with muscle spasms/dystonia in my foot ๐ญ
Morning peeps ๐
Day two without a #wakeandbake ๐ Didnโt sleep as well as usual but at least Iโve stopped being sick, couldnโt even keep water down from about 5pm last night ๐คข๐คฎ Still taking my CBD paste though, better safe than sorry #COVIDใผ19#COVID19#cytokinestorm ๐๐ฟ๐
There are 3 different methods you can use:
Rosin Extraction - looks expensive
Vegetable Glycerine (short term) - looks like something out of breaking bad ๐๐
Vegetable Glycerine (long term) - looks the easiest to not f**k up so I went with that one ๐
You will need...
Start by decarbing your weed, spread the ground bud evenly on a tray & cover. I do this in the oven at approx 115-118c for approx 22-25 mins, depending on the smell towards the end, when it smells yummy after 22 minutes I take it out, otherwise I give it the full 25 minutes ๐
Go to the shop and hope theyโve got the rest of the ingredients ๐๐๐๐คฆโโ๏ธ donโt even keep sugar these days ๐
This recipe says to wash the bugs off the flowers but after reading a couple of other recipes it seems to preserve the pollen itโs best to spread them out & wait for the bugs to go, about 15 mins ๐ Iโve also done a bit of sifting by hand to encourage them out ๐ tad impatient ๐
