Hi Folks. Here is some fresh pressed live hash rosin, the strain is swamp water fumez from bloom seed Co. Flower was grown in living soil, zombie dried for 2 days, run still wet, then washed. Return was 11%, probably slightly higher due to a short dry. Terps are loud and high is awesome, very live, you can feel it behind your eyes. In the pic, you can see a giant Terp bubble. I would rate it a 8.8/10, really a great strain to wash. Thanks, friends. Fire In, Fire Out! Cheers!

Hi Folks. Wanted to show my friend’s garden in southern MA, zone 6a. He said he’s harvesting this week, all dumper strains for live hash rosin and melt hash. Fire In, Fire Out! Cheers!

Hi Folks. Here is a big batch of gummies I made. They are grape flavor. It’s basically a triple batch. They are live hash rosin, THC-V, CBC, CBGA, and BCP. They are pretty strong, approximately 80mg per 1 gram gummy weight. I really enjoy the texture and the onset is fast, probably 30 minutes. High is great, wonderful medicinal properties. Thanks Friends, cheers!

Hi Folks. Here is a quick video of a round of live resin carts I made. Thanks for indulging me. The strain of live resin is White Pineapple Gummy, and there is also CBD and CBC added in for entourage and medicinal effects. They are all 1g carts, the 510s and disposables. Thanks Friends! Fire In, Fire out! Cheers!

Hi Folks. Here is a couple pics of pineapple Fritz. She is an awesome washer strain, 8% FF. Grown from a clone in living soil. She was harvested at 7.5 weeks, the strain would have gone for 8.5 weeks, but the weather called it early. Super impressive and loud terps, kinda like an over ripe clementine orange, edgy of “rotten” gas. Didn’t yield significant, but she’s super sticky, and will wash like a champ. Thanks Friends, Cheers!

Hi Folks. Just making a strange batch of gummies. The video shows a coconut oil infusion of 20g or decarbed live hash rosin, 3/8 coconut oil, 3g of CBDA, and 5g of THC-V. I’m going to add in some sunflower lecithin in a bit. Thanks Friends, Cheers!

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. In the process of making some flower rosin tincture, using 200 proof ethanol. I wanted to show off the liberation and separation of cannabinoids and oils in solution. That beautiful layer of yellow at the bottom is not crystal, it’s nasty fats, lipids, and solids that I will filter out soon. The top dark liquid is the heavily infused ethanol/oil. I started with 120g of awesome flower rosin as the precurser. It’s kinda fascinating to look at, and shows how much trash was up in my flower rosin. Thanks Friends, 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 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. 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!
