    How do you tell when a concentrate vape cartridge is done?

    I live in a legal state and occasionally enjoy using concentrate vape cartridges I get from local dispensaries. These are operated by a slim, pen like battery. I have noticed that after a lot of use (multiple times over a month) that even if I take many puffs, I am getting a weak effect. Yet I...

    I Want to make Solventless EDIBLE Hash Oil

I have severe and chronic asthma and do not smoke. I am also taking a break from vaping, as that may also have been troublesome for...

    Vaping With Asthma?

    I am a moderate to severe adult-onset, non-allergic asthmatic. When I started about 5 plus years ago using cannabis for my chronic insomnia (I have since developed chronic pain which I also use it for) I knew smoke was a non-starter...even second hand smoke makes my lungs spasm. After one...

    CBD Does Not Work for Me

    I have been hearing about the wonders of CBD for the last few years...especially for pain and seizure relief. Now I have chronic pain from spinal stenosis, osteoarthritis and degenerative disc disease in my lower spine. I typically vape or consume tinctures, coconut oil, random edibles with THC...

    Trans-dermal Patch Review

    Because I have serious lung issues I avoid smoking and am always looking for new ways to medicate. I am also trying to keep my tolerance down as I have to medicate daily for insomnia and chronic pain. Typically, I use a flower vape pen. I also use tincture and coconut oil I make. Once in a...

    Magical Butter

    This is my second posting on the Magical Butter. I wrote an earlier review about making an ETOH-based tincture with it. On November 29, 2014, I made a batch of herb-infused coconut oil with my new Magical Butter device. It was my second experiment with the cooker. On 11/9/14, I made an alcohol...

    Magical Butter

    Thanks SasNW....I finally figured the light was just reflecting on the one next to it. I would probably design the buttons so it is a bit less confusing...and bigger buttons that are easier to hit! Here's my report on the experience: On Sunday afternoon I decided I finally had enough herb on...

    Magical Butter

    This is a question...hope someone is around to answer. I just set up my Magical Butter and have all the ingredients inside it for an ETOH based tincture. I hit the temperture button and then the 160 button...but the one to the right of it (a higher temp) seems to be lit as well. Did I do...

    Coconut oil....what went wrong?

    Today I made my second batch of coconut oil. I made my first batch several weeks ago using trim, and a tiny amount of concentrate. I used a saucepan and kept the heat around 250 for about 90 minutes. It turned out quite well. Success. But today I used about the same amount of plant material and...

    Pure Gold Alternatives in Northwest

    Hi Everyone: Thank you all for the feedback!! FYI, back in SoCal a few years ago, I tried tinctures from several sources. For some reason I GOT ABSOLUTELY NO EFFECTS. Perhaps I was using it wrong?! Or it just doesn't work for me. Here in Oregon, sometime in the last year, I made my own tincture...

    I have seen a number of advertisements for PureGold Tetra Labs products....unfortunately they are not available here in Oregon where I am a legal patient. I do have access to many dispensaries here in the Portland metro area...and legal herb will eventually be available across the river in...

    Looking for EZ to use Portable Concentrate Vape

    I have been using the MFLB for several years and have been quite happy with it. I have severe chronic persistent asthma and I was able to vape with the MFLB without issues up until recently...about two months ago, I started having more coughing and bronchospasm using it. I thought perhaps my...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    I have had my MFLB now for about 3 years (I still use rubber bands around it!). While I brush it after each use, there is still a thick build up of gunk inside the trench. I have, in past, cleaned it with q tip and rubbing alcohol and gotten most of the stuff off with no problem. So several days...

    NERVE PAIN STRAINS

    Hi Everyone: Thank you all for your stories and feedback! I do have an update to my situation. On March 19, I finally had an MRI of my right hip. Turns out I have what I thought I had all along when I first started having the pain, back in mid-December 2012. I have avascular necrosis...and will...
