Hey gang. Quick question. I picked up some weed from...uhhh...my weed shop. It was just hand trimmed and not processed like normal buds I get. Do I just gently remove all the leaves before I grind this up? It seems like when I'm trying to do it I'm losing a lot of good rear end WEED in the process.

Thanks in advance,
a dumbass idiot



That was not hand trimmed. That was just pulled off the stem and tossed in a bag. But yes, just pull the leaves off. I'd almost bet those buds are damp too. If you don't mind the harsher taste, you can smoke the leaves.

Sorry bud, it appears you have been screwed.

E: is your shop run by an old hippie type? In my experience, that's who has given me the leafiest weed before I lived in a place with dispensaries on every 3rd corner.

I've smoked so many leaves from poorly trimmed bud and at worst it'll take away some from the flavor, you're totally fine to just grind it all

Oh yeah, that's different. The obfuscation of source always trips me up, but weed from a buddy, yeah, totally fine, you're saving him labor.

Grind everything but the stem.

Local dispensaries are coming out with their "Green Wednesday" deals and I'm not terribly excited by what I've seen so far. I just wanna get some real nice live resin carts for turkey day, I plan on going to outer space

bud with all the sugar leaves still on is called hippie trim around here

when I was poor I used to buy ounces of sugar leaf trim for like $50 and just smoke that. a blunt full of straight frosty sugar leaves is still much better than what we were smoking 20 years ago

We decided to forego (forewent?) the family trip this year and headed for a long weekend near a beach. Not groundbreaking news, but goddamn does a nice easy stone go great with an afternoon lazing in the sun with the sound of waves crashing in background.

Danksgiving loving rules. My mother made a "small" dinner of a turkey. Gravy, stuffing. Mashed potatoes, sliced and baked sweet potatoes, green beans, green chile, homemade bread and a pumpkin pecan pie. I don't say this to gloat, moreso that it was just for my parents, myself and my wife. We talked poo poo about the rest of the family and talked about edibles because my parents are old hippies. I was on a pineapple express cart before I got there and it was a super low stress time. I generally really loving hate Thanksgiving. This year's was great. Now it's not even 7 and I'm gonna smoke a preroll and take a bath with a good book and some tunes.

Make butter with it if you're willing to go through the hassle. It will be worth it!

I have a sous vide thing. I’d probably put the butter in a mason jar in a water bath and put the avb in some cheese cloth and soak that for a while.

you should wash the avb with water until it's mostly clear, it will taste much better when you butterfy it later

Sedgr

This one rolls pretty straight. The other prototypes I made weren't this round. This is v3 technically.



First version didn't have any way to attach the cap, was just friction fit, worked but was kind of annoying.
V2 had a magnetic cap, seemed alright but the magnets are weakened enough by the heat that it doesn't seem worth it.

I explained a bit about the current version in the tcc vape thread. The "stem" half has stainless chain in it to act as a condenser and induce turbulence. Tried glass boiling beads as well, they work fine too.

Personally I like the color of the paduk one in the middle. Walnut is fine but I kind of want to leave the wood mostly raw for now so the color isnt the best.

The thing I'd really like to change is the metal parts to be honest. These are just faucet fittings from the hardware store and they are chromed brass from what I can tell. Not the worst, its not like I'm torching it and breathing through the chrome, but I'd rather find some that are pure stainless. Having a weirdly difficult time tracking that down.

I'll let people know as I work things out. I just thought it was neat and wanted to show it to people. Didn't really have a plan beyond that.
