I absolutely agree of course. I promise I am really only trying to keep our methodology clear - I love to be incorrect, because then I know I am incorrect. It was no peeing contest intended, even though I re-read my post and it sure *does* look pissy. Sorry. Couldn't figure out quite how to...

@Bouldorado , Well, hate to do it again, but... (and I did skip editing for mellowness, honestly only because you said you were pretty thick-skinned, so if I offend it was from speed of typing and lack of editing) So, I need to say: Two non-sequiturs. I'm sorry, man. And this is probably the...

Holy cow my VB Pen took me into the friggin' future!

Hey there! Just wanted to mention something as a side note. If you *do* get stuck with a strain that you feel is too high in THC, you can always either jar cure it longer (if it has moisture), OR turn it into an oil using any method that includes 250-degree (F) heat (I use a saffron oil bath...

Thanks @Trogdor ! I finally started compiling info in a more "orderly fashion" than I had been on cannabis recently - I had *never* considered creating an allergy section! I was always one who thought nobody even *could* be allergic to cannabis (although granted I did know within the last year...

@Bouldorado , Great thread, great post! I (very, very respectfully) disagree though. Here are a couple of links that are, granted, simply science ones. Honestly *no* offense intended - these are all opinions from folks (now GrayWolf is huge, so that gave me pause) on whether it works. I mean...

I am in complete agreement about re-thinking safety. I am following that thread as well. When RSO is used sublingually, it is *supposed* to offset any impurities by its actually healing properties. I was okay with that. But then I started mixing my oil 1:1 with EJMix for my Kanger. Now I am...

@2clicker , First, I am constantly amazed at how much I learn just by "showing up" for discussions. SO glad I brought my lurking days to an end! As far as my wash, here is what I do. It is SO not fancy. I start with dried (7 days) and cured (14 more days in mason jars) trimmed *and* manicured...

@Trogdor , And here was one I am only posting because it was one of the Yahoo Health news articles. (Probably the best info is from links *within* the article) But it absolutely discusses various known allergic reactions when using/handling cannabis...

@2clicker you are absolutely right - I do forget how expensive it can be, and lack of access. As far as the expense, I had thought about it as well when I was first heeing and hawing over what to use. I guess I considered that 750ml of Everclear 191 is about 30 bucks. I use about 250ml per 2...

@GenYHippie , And here was one I am only posting because it was one of the Yahoo Health news articles. (Probably the best info is from links *within* the article. But it absolutely discusses various known allergic reactions when using/handling cannabis...

Hmmm...well, the next place I would of course be looking is at the specifics of how you are vaping, but I am sure you already thought of all those as well (mouthpiece material, what you mix it with to vape if anything, etc.) I am going to "step out" of this one so that you can get some *good*...

@Trogdor , I had something similar when I was getting regular corticosteroid injections epidurally. It's "supposed to be" non-systemic. Yeah right. (I know, you are being treated with steroids FOR the swelling, I just put it here for accuracy.) :-) Anyway, that was when I started growing my...

Hi all, I agree with @Enchantre . I use RSO sublingually myself, and found that if you follow skunk pharm's "Holy Anointing Oil" recipe for instance, you can simply keep thinning the oil out with more coconut oil. The coconut oil *vastly* improved my pain relief (multiple peripheral...

Thanks @herbivore21 . I will absolutely try to put some stuff together to "add", although I honestly think you already have shown more knowledge of it - this stuff all applies! I will say this - I think ethanol (general term) gets a bad wrap. For instance, 4 things can actually kill aspergillus...

GG, And just another piece of very strong (granted anecdotal, since it was accidental) evidence for "no-heat" decarb, i.e. - natural decarb. Now this isn't from "no-heat", but I wanted to post it anyway. I really did think it was in the same vein. I had one bottle of RSO that I had not done a...

Hi, I do love your stuff @herbivore21 ! This is SO *not* meant in an argumentative way, just wanted to make a quiet note for anyone looking at the thread like myself. "Concentrates" are not only used for inhalation. I use mine sublingually as my primary method. Not saying that I am not...

Hi everyone, I am studiously (for a cannahead) working on the science-ey parts of this discussion. I am not a stupid man, but I will certainly require assistance and input. (If not for FC.com and you folks, I would never have looked at ANY of this in the first place, so a big heart-felt thanks...

GG, Quick note - I have the worse luck on my computer when I "quote", so I am responding to your last post without including it, sorry. It makes my browser just freeze up. Sigh. Anyway, I am really sorry I didn't check that link again before I posted it! I have it printed out on my desk, and...

GG, Yes, this has had me perplexed as well. (Hence my excitement over ND Sap!!!). Winemakers make the following suggestion when I did some looking - adding sulfites and/or ascorbic acid to avoid oxidation. But that might be at room temps only? Heck, could be completely irrelevant. I don't...
