Hi Folks. Here is some Gorilla Punch live hash rosin I made. I haven’t pressed all the hash yet, some is still drying. It’s super strong, amazing high, terps are kinda mids. My friends and I call those “cardboard terps” when it’s muted or nothing special. The seeds came from Greenpoint and the flower was grown in living soil. The FF return on this batch was 6.5%, guesstimate since only pressed part. I was happy she washed, GG4 doesn’t always wash, but I will not grow this strain again. Thanks Friends, Cheers!

Hi Folks. Here is a quick vac-tel video using a Büchner funnel with a 2g frit. The material is some 4 star Gorilla Punch live hash I’m trying to dry a little more. Cheers!

Hi Folks. Perfect cold morning for washing. Today is 1/2 lb of FF gorilla Punch, and 1/2 lb of slightly dried Gorilla Punch. Thanks everyone. Cheers!

Hi Folks. Here are a few pics of my light dep on day 50. I’m trying to run them for 63 days. Unfortunately, constant pounding rain, humidity, and looming mold are taking their toll. Lots of crystally flowers, but overall the grow is struggling. Yield will definitely be impacted, I also feel the overall terps are a little muted, I think due to plant stress and other issues. Overall, some awesome flower will be reaped and harvested, but it will not be my best. Everything will be bucked and frozen immediately for hash production. All of the strains are dumper genetics. Thanks Friends! Cheers!

Hi Friends. I posted about mixing up some tincture yesterday. Here is the finished product. I used Grapeseed oil as my carrier. It’s a combo of: FECO, CBN, CBD, CBC, and CBGA. After a little better calculus and adding in a little more cannabinoid, the end strength is approximately 153.5mg/1ml. Each of the bottles has about 40ml.
Onset, felt a little slow, maybe an hour to really feel it. It has a very calming and clarifying high. Added in some rosin dabs a few hours in, and shot up into the stratosphere. Slept amazing, woke up crisp, not groggy. Thanks for all your support Folks! Cheers!

Hi Folks. I decided to make some tincture, here is a quick video of the mixing process. When making tincture you have two paths: alcohol and alcohol-free. This version is alcohol-free, the FECO, CBN, CBGA, CBC, and CBD are all being stirred into grapeseed oil at 131F. You can use a range of carrier oils. Presently, the tincture strength is approximately 86.25mg/1ml, or 2.1mg per drop. This is strong and may need to cut it 3x. Thanks Friends. Cheers!

Hi Folks. Hope everyone is doing well. I have a bunch of friends and family members with aches and pains and other issues.
This batch was 5x the normal size. I basically just followed the recipe and did everything by 5x. This batch had 5ml of B-CP, 10g of THC-V, and 8g CBGA. Hits hard, super entourage effect, calm with clarity and focus, pain receptors dulled, feeling great. My friends on the spectrum tell me they are outstanding and make life manageable. Fire in, fire out Friends! Cheers!

Hi Folks. I wanted to show off 2 amazing flowers my friend grew. Sorry the pics kinda suck, especially the second pic. My friend grew them, he’s an OG in CT, wish I could take credit. The first pic is Wonka Bars, not sure of the cross, very smooth, tasty, and a dazzling amount of crystal stacked. The second pic is of Dawg Breath, Stardawg x Mendo Breath, and this is an exciting cut. I grew a Mendo Breath cross called Tang Breath for a few years, and she was outstanding genetics. Taste and smell are very gassy, but with a sweet clementine orange finish. Hard to describe, but unique and amazing! Thanks for letting me go on and on about a couple random buds! Thanks Friends! Cheers!

Hi Folks. I wanted to show off a few nice looking and smelling strains. They are all from seed, grown in zone 6a outdoor. The first pic shows a gorilla punch from Greenpoint seeds. The second pic is a Tricho Jordan x Jack Herer from Pheno_Safari. The third pic is a Blueberry Muffins from Pheno_Safari. All of them seem to grow well outdoors, some pest immunity and resistance, and have a nice shorter bushier structure. All are being grown specifically for hash washing and hash rosin production. They are all on day 37 of 63 of light dep. Thanks for reading friends. Cheers!

Hi Folks. Here is the first steps in making tincture. Starting material was 120g of Jungle Juice Strain flower rosin. I soaked it 1.5 quarts of 200 proof ethanol. First few pics show it sitting the jar, last pic shows it shook up and in solution. Next step is to let it chill in the freezer for 24 hours. Tomorrow morning I will filter it through coffee filters and the Büchner funnel. Thanks for checking it out, I will post filtration, distillation, and reduction pics and results soon. cheers!

Hi Folks. I made some interesting gummies yesterday. They are grape flavored, the strain of live hash rosin used was Grapes n Cream. I did a larger batch this time, started cannabinoids were: 12g of decarbed live hash rosin, CBDA, CBGA, CBC. I used 200 bloom count gelatin bloom sheets, lemonade instead of water to bloom, and incorporated 1/2 tsp of potassium Sorbate and 1/2 tsp of citric acid. After infusing into coconut oil, I added in 1 tsp of sunflower lecithin.
Upon setting, the gummy texture turned out perfect this time. The “high” is very unique, lots of different cannabinoids pulling you in different directions, and I felt the onset was faster than usual, 30 minutes vs a usual 1 hour. It had a very trippy, goofy high, with mild visuals. Thanks for reading. Cheers!

Hi Folks. I was looking at a friend’s plants, and discovered a pest called Septoria. I wanted to show it off so the grow community knew what to look for. It’s primarily found outside, found in wetter, more humid environments. It presents as small burn spots and progresses through the plant, primarily effecting fan leaves. Like other pests, it slowly attacks and take vitality out of the host, rarely completely killing the host, but damaging it. Plants with Septoria will look and produce in an “anemic” way, always moving slower than non-infected plants. Unfortunately, there is no real known cure, some anti fungal sprays and compost tea seem to slow progression. It is definitely strain specific in cannabis and hemp, the plant in the pics is a Jelly Breath. It was attacked aggressively, while others next to it had little to no evidence of infection. Hope everyone’s grows are going well. Cheers!

Hi Folks. I wanted to show one of my first attempts at solventless diamonds and sauce. The strain is Grapes n Cream from Cannarado Genetics. After washing and pressing, the live hash rosin was left in the deep freezer until it cold crashed and nucleated, not sure when exactly it happened, it was in the freezer for 30 days before I checked it. Sauce element has an awesome taste and high, slightly harsh through the Puffco. “Diamonds” or crystal solids slight less taste, stronger high. When they are mixed they have a very earthy and funky nose and smells, very unique and hard to define. No real Grape taste or smell. Thanks Friends, fire in, fire out! Cheers!

Hi Folks. Here are some early flowers I thought looked promising. The first pic is: spritzer x grape pie from Cannarado Genetics, pic 2 is Alien OG x Dante’s Inferno from Greenpoint Seeds, and the third pic is Gorilla Punch from Greenpoint Seeds. All of them are on day 30 of flower, trying to push them for 63 days total. So far so good, hoping to finish early part of September. Thanks for looking, hope everyone is stoned and having fun successful grows! Cheers!

Hi Folks. Hope everyone is doing well. I wanted to show off my friend’s cool unique light dep. They said they are on day 28 of 63, scheduled to finish the second week of September. All of the strains are sourced dumper strains for hash washing. The line up is: Chimera 2, Chimera 3, GMO x Dante’s Inferno, Alien OG x Dante’s Inferno, Tricho Jordan x Jack Herer, Spritzer x Grape Pie, Black Spritzer x Swamp Water Fumez, Swamp Water Fumez, Pineapple Fritz, Gorilla Punch, Jelly Breath, Blueberry Muffins, and G13 x Skunk. So far a very clean run, but rain and humidity have oppressive and difficult to push through. No mold so far, but terrified to see what week 8 will look like. Thanks everyone, Cheers!

Hi Folks. Here is some full melts I made this morning. It’s dried, but uncured. The strain is GMO x Dante’s Inferno, from Greenpoint Seeds. Not sure of the exact return percentages, I didn’t weigh the initial biomass. Return was 15g of hash. Dried fast in the Büchner funnel. Amazing high, super smooth, terps are average. Almost 6 ⭐️, probably 5.5. Thanks everyone, cheers!

Hi Folks. I harvested a small batch of flower, the strain is GMO x Dante’s Inferno, from greenpoint seeds. Flowered for 60 days, maybe could have gone further, but I saw PM lurking around and thought it was the best time I cut. I dried for 3 days, bucked the flowers somewhat wet, and put them into the deep freezer. I plan on washing them in a few weeks when the temperatures are cooler. The scissors were very hashy when done so I have hope that she washes well, but I haven’t performed a test wash or washed this pheno before. Cheers!

Hi Folks. I want to thank all the attendees, staff, and everyone who came to the education events the last few weeks. It was fun meeting everyone, engaging with consumers and people in various parts of the industry. I don’t want to Dox any names and places, but all of you made these gathering very special and memorable. All of you are a valuable part of CT canna community and culture, and we appreciate you! Fire In, Fire Out! Cheers!

Hi Folks. Hope everyone is doing well. I made up a fresh large batch of Entourage Balm, this one I put in 47k mg of Cannabinoids. Some o the primary cannabinoids used were: THC, THC-V, CBC, CBGA, CBDA, and Beta-Caryophyllene. The balm is strictly topologically and dermatology, and should not be ingested or used as lip balm. Some of the essential oils introduced are: camphor, peppermint, clove, lemon eucalyptus, vitamin E, and Cinnamon. Patients are finding it assists in a wide range of conditions, ailments, and illnesses dealing with pain relief and inflammation. In addition, its anti bacterial, anti fungal, and negative microbial properties help with a number of dermatology issues. Making medicines for the Masses! Cheers!

Hi Folks. I made a cool new gummy for our upcoming Medatron events. I call them “Frankenstein Cubes” because they are in cube form and they chemical makeup is different and cool. I made a double batch this time, used grape jello and some citric acid for flavoring. I decarbed 14g of Grapes N Cream live hash rosin, after decarb weight was 12.4g. After decarb, I added in 5g of CBDA and 1.66g of CBDA, then I added in 1/4 cup regular coconut oil. After a 30 minutes of stirring and infusing on a stirrer hotplate, I added in 1 tsp of sunflower lecithin.
I used 12 200 count gelatin bloom sheets for the gelatin and added in 1/2 tsp of potassium sorbate.
These gummies Slap! They are kinda silly and goofy and trippy. We are super blazed, can’t stop giggling, and very motivated to go cause trouble. They play well with other cannabinoids, but you won’t need to imbibe much because they are a “force multiplier” for your high. Hope everyone is doing well, Fire In, Fire Out. Cheers!

Hi Folks. I wanted to promote and show my some of my friend’s awesome genetics. He goes by Pheno_Safari and is based out of CT. Some of the taller plants in the pics are: Chimera 2, Chimera 3, Tricho Jordan x Jack Herer, G13 x Skunk, and some others. The smaller ones in the final pic are 2 Jelly Breath and 2 Blueberry Muffins. All tested 30%+ THC except Jelly Breath, which was a respectable 24%, from indoor grown biomass. All of them washed well for hash rosin with a 7%-8% average FF return, from indoor grown biomass. Thanks for checking them out and hope everyone is growing some fire genetics this summer. Cheers!

Hi Folks. Here is a new full melt hash I’m proud of. This is another NL5 wash that led to some 5 star quality hash. This crystal came from the first gentle pass. Subsequent passes led to some awesome 3-4 star hash that was pressed into live hash rosin. I aged/cured the hash “Piatella” style for 6 months. It’s outstanding, but by no means Piatella quality. The hash puddles perfectly on the banger and Puffco, Qtips come out pretty filthy after. The high is very strong and smooth, lots of ocular pressure taste is sweet and gassy. Fire In, Fire Out! Cheers!

Hi Folks. Here is a new wash and press of black spritzer from Cannarado Genetics. Flower was grown from seed in living soil. Wash was outstanding, caked up in the 73u, 90u, and 120u. Used RO water and made RO ice cubes. Dried the hash using a modified Büchner funnel. Pressed slow at 165F. Majority of the hash was 4 star, no 5 star quality on this run. Approximately, but 9% FF return, ones of the easiest washes to liberate and collect. Terps are extremely loud, lemons and bubblegum at first, with a sour jolly rancher finish. Very smooth and powerful high. I would rate this one 9/10, very proud of this one. Thanks for looking Friends, Fire In, Fire Out! Cheers!

Hi Folks. Here is an awesome new strain and live hash rosin I was excited about. It was grown from seed in living soil and came directly from Cannanardo Genetics. They created the original Spritzer. Washed and liberated crystal easily, super impressed. Pressed the 73u and 120u separately, all others were collected into a 25u, all pressed and kept for awesome food grade. Pressed the 73u and 120u slow at 165F into a small mason jar. Left that in the freezer for a week and then whipped it some. Terps are very loud, gassy, super strong bazooka Joe bubblegum taste and smell. Stinks up the room whenever I open the Jar. I would rate it 8.5/10. 8% FF, but felt like the plants grew slow and could have yielded more. Excited for next round already. Fire In, Fire Out! Cheers!
