    Candies

    I just love my candies! They're delicious, potent, and SO stealthy. I'm a total convert to making them in the microwave. No thermometer needed! (I keep breaking mine.) This is the same recipe I posted here, with a few new notes. Be prepared with everything you need, and it's quite easy...

    Swamp Water / Golden Dragon a use for your abv/avb

    Do go ahead and start a candy thread, V's Monster, and I'll gladly add my microwave recipe there. I've made a few adjustments since I posted it before.

    I can trade my Buddha for Purplr Days...

    They make a really nice, complementary trio! I spent a few weeks enjoying the PDP exclusively, but now I use all three - in different situations. I couldn't bear to part with any of them.

    Best Vape for tiny amounts

    I have a DBV, which is an adjustable-temp whip type, and it's wonderful, but it is (IME) a weed hog. I was actually going through more with it than I did when combusting, almost twice as much!* The Purple Days and the Launch Box are both really great with tiny amounts. YMMV of course, but both...

    Discontinued Pandora Kit from Purple-Days

    Here is my lovely new PDP! I tried her out and am VERY happy with how she performs... and isn't she pretty! She's like a classy redheaded lady, who happens to be wearing funny yellow panties. :D

    Discontinued Pandora Kit from Purple-Days

    I have my PDP put together now, and I am so happy! When I unpacked the kit and saw the wood I gasped in delight, it is just a beautiful piece of cherry!! I have just glued the bottom wood in after testing that it works. When I'm all done with the leather bottom and the finishing I'll proudly...

    New to this pond

    I love my dear Buddha and I'm sure you'll be happy with yours too. It's possible to load a small amount. Me, I was a heavy bong-snorkler when I was smoking, so I like loading big fat bowls that I have to stir several times and get like seven, eight monster cloudy hits from. I'm still new to this...

    New to this pond

    They're very different types. I credit the Buddha for helping me to stop combusting, tastes great and I love the clouds, but it does tear through the weed. The PD is well known for being able to get a lot out of a little. At this moment, one can get the PD only as a Pandora kit. One assembles...

    Purple Days w/ Bong setup - 100, 250, 500 ml?

    I'll be putting my PD together this week from the Pandora kit, really looking forward to getting to know it. I've been wanting that HVY mini beaker - but it's been out of stock for a while. I keep checking every week or two, and I think the price actually went up since I've been checking - it...

    Swamp Water / Golden Dragon a use for your abv/avb

    Ah, I get you. Then, yes, it'd really be best to wait. I plan on sticking with peppermint from now on. It's kind of crushing when you get a weird tasting batch... all that goodness you could have used somehow else! But my experiment with these only cost me 1/4 oz. of ABV, not too much of an...

    Swamp Water / Golden Dragon a use for your abv/avb

    That was two hours at most. I had the crockpot on High, which is fine I think if you check it (lifting it out and swishing it around before putting it back) more often than I did - I was distracted and didn't check it at all during the second hour. I had the kitchen ceiling fan on - don't know...

    Swamp Water / Golden Dragon a use for your abv/avb

    Lo, how did they test out for you and your guinea pig friend? I've been wondering! :) Mine have totally kept me sane during the visit home. I will never go without them! One mint would keep me high for hours. One and a half got me blasted. And the only telltale sign: fresh minty breath and...

    Black Phlem?

    When I was combusting [herb] I coughed up black stuff all the time. Every morning, without fail. Looked and smelled exactly like bong resin. When I started vaping, it tapered off quickly and stopped altogether in about four weeks. I used to be a heavy cigarette smoker, but stopped many years ago.

    $.69 cents = Cost Per Average Vapor Hit

    Personally, when I read that I was impressed by lwien's restraint. I turn on the DBV before I even load up the coffee pot, and vape a nice bowl (wand) before breakfast. It goes on from there... and on... and on. I get plenty high from the first bowl, I just enjoy vaping so much. And I have very...

    $.69 cents = Cost Per Average Vapor Hit

    OK, I admit to always being jealous of the nice (and expensive!) stuff you guys talk about getting, but I just figured up what my ordinary BTN (Better Than Nothing) costs me, in my part of "flyover country", using Pappy's measure of 18 hits to a gram -- $140/oz. -- $5 a gram -- 27 cents per...

    Swamp Water / Golden Dragon a use for your abv/avb

    I bet yours are very powerful! :ko: I found mine to last a very long time, way longer than the tincture by itself. I used the same type of candy mold that you link to, the hard white tempered plastic, though a different shape - it's what they had at the candy supply store in my town that...

    Swamp Water / Golden Dragon a use for your abv/avb

    Yay! I'm glad to have something useful to offer, I've learned so much here! :) I am now at my parents' house, having traveled for the 4th, and am grooving pleasantly right now on one of my candies. I made them with this purpose in mind. Husband, a wonderful man but a worrier, worries about my...

    Swamp Water / Golden Dragon a use for your abv/avb

    I tried making the swamp water candies -- with great success! I wanted to report on it, because I ultimately found an easier recipe than the stovetop one posted before. I tried the stovetop method first. It made a big batch, and I hadn't bought enough molds (not realizing how many I'd need)...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Today a heavy-smoking friend of mine tried the Launch Box for the first time. He took a single hit off it... reacted... :o and then immediately ordered one for himself. It literally sold itself! :cool:

    Survey: Post your relationship status

    Married 15 years. Husband used to partake, but as he's gotten older he says it mostly makes him sleepy. He occasionally gets a hit off the DBV, and yesterday he tried the MFLB though I'm not sure if he got a good hit from it or not. (He tried one of my more potent ABV brownies a few weeks ago...
