Tastes like the smell of rosemary according to my wife with a hint of pine. -

Tasting the product of a rosemary harvest. Double filtered Rosemary Macerated Oil. Macerated is the correct terminology for the extraction/fusion process I use. -
Good luck with the future ventures bud. Sent from my S40 using Tapatalk

Good advice. Print and stick that up on your wall. I subscribe to Field's of green for all and have everything concerning your rights and the law up on my wall. Like the pubs have their license and permit to trade on display I try the same. Not a license to trade but my rights according to the government. Sent from my S40 using Tapatalk

A case happening in Atlantis area at the moment. A friend who owns a farm, ie owner and landlord. Another so called friend (fucked us all over with his charm and shenanigans), tenant. Tenant convinced landlord he had a license to grow. Tried warning landlord there is no such thing for private yet. Tenant grew 100 odd trees plus some up in Greyton and then some indoor. Tenant thought he was a big boy and supplied various gangs in Atlantis. Landlords farm got raided as drug squad had been watching tenant's dealing. They found just under 15kg flower vacuum packed in 1kg packs in the landlords house and some unlicensed ammunition and licenced weapons. Area rented by tenant they bagged close to 150kg of cannabis harvested, drying and curing, hash and hash processing equipment (two mini washing machines). Tenant on the run. Landlord and his wife spent the weekend in the cells. Cops and the drug squad were very professional with the raid apparently although they [emoji780] the wife for answering the door with a cocked pistol. She saw cars screeching into the farm and dude's in balaclavas with guns surrounded her house. You wanna get shot, try that shit out here where we live in the bush. After the weekend in jail for whatever legal police reasons they at home. Told by the police and drug squad they have nothing to worry about and no charges against them. They after the tenant. I asked the landlord where am I going to source flower for my products now. The fucker smiled at me and says 'they left the flower where it was'. Looked at it, photographed it and left it. Suppose it depends on the raiding cops understanding or not of the law unfortunately. Sent from my S40 using Tapatalk

Yeah, thanks man. Gotta try. Only time I look back is to make sure there are no stragglers. I'll DM you details. Haven't paid the fees to plug myself. Sent from my S40 using Tapatalk -
Beginning of lockdown when fags were expensive I experimented on herbal recipes for my vape while I was waiting for my beer to brew. One thing lead to another and we now grow a variety of herbs and West Coast Vaper was born. I get to walk out into the nursery and pick herbs as and when needed for projects now. A little lavender and rosemary harvest for a pork brisket rub I'm working on for a client. Unfortunately my CBD grow ended up not being CBD so have a few unhappy customers.

@Bay Seeds Strawberry Cheesecake, Lemon Larry OG or both? Whatever she is, she's a beauty.

INTRODUCING AntZilla.
West Coast Vaper replied to West Coast Vaper's topic in Organic Growing - Growing in soil
And just like that, no more braai days for AntZilla. It's that time of the year, mist hangs around till 10ish these mornings and the first sign of bud rot. Small but it's the start. Had flash backs of Haunted Kush Cake what with the aromas, colour and ease of trim. Another one of my threads closed. Thanks for tagging along. -

AntZilla going strong. I'll try and get in there with the microscope tomorrow. -
@Bay Seeds mixed autos enjoying the last rays of the day. Pic 1 @ 68 days in 10l pot. Pic 2 @ 68 days in 20l pot. Then some youngsters @ 38 days in 3l pots. Last pic. Every sundown the ladies are brought inside to chill under 85W until sunrise. Lights out from 4am till they taken outside.

Dude, you'll like be my best friend forever. End product after a successful grow will still be sent for testing for certification reasons. I'm, urgg. Can't say how annoyed I am at the effort spent on growing this CBD strain only to find out it's not. Nice smoke and good in edibles though. Not too goofed but don't plan on going for a hike either.

Cool. I'll go have a look. Sent from my S40 using Tapatalk

Yep, on qure's site potency test is somewhere round what you saying. Additional tests which I was looking at were terpines (pointless taking something for pain if you want something to help you sleep) for example and foreign organic matter. I stopped adding what I wanted testing at the 1000bucks mark. Chatting with Taste of Cannabis to see where I can get certified CBD tincture to work with for now. Just to be safe. If you know of somewhere else please let me know. Sent from my S40 using Tapatalk

For now I'm trying to source CBD oil/extract that I can infuse into my products until my next outdoor hopefully CBD grow. I was so excited. Bud frosty and full of aromas. I believe in the naming and shaming policy but only after I've approached the person/vendor to mention the problem and see what the response is. Legit companies also suffer unforseen circumstances. Their response makes the difference. Anyone dealt with Taste of Cannabis? Sent from my S40 using Tapatalk

So it's kinda 'it says what it is on the can'. You buy honey labeled as honey only to find out it's honey infused sugar blah blah. I'm only mentioning this if someone is considering making CBD products. I have a client base for CBD doggy biscuits of all things. Sourced and grew CBD/Hemp. Asked occasional social smoker's to test. Everyone responded this is not CBD but we had a good time. I think it's about R1000 to get a CBD/THC potency and terpines test done which I'll be doing anyway going forward to keep it professional on my venture. I'm sure the breeder I got the seeds from handed them over in good faith but something happened in the supply chain.

So things have changed a bit with the indoor setup. It's been switched off. Life and Eskom. So my auto grow now is mother nature from about 9am-6pm then under supplemental 85W light. Dark period (light off) 4am'ish till I take them outside at 9am'ish. Pic 1-3 sprouted 02/03. So 2 months +. Rest of the pic's are a mix of 1 month and some old. I can kick myself for fucking things up with the Strawberry Vostok F2 grow looking at these ladies.

Mmmm. I've set up a little (biggish) greenhouse in my shade house to do a winter test grow on your Mixed Pack (Strawberry Cheesecake, Lemon Larry OG). Anastasia 99 regulars I'll be planting mid month. Closed my indoor for now (life and Eskom). So indoor setup consists of: plants outside as soon as the sun shines till sunset then under 85W the rest of the time. Lights out between 4am-9am'ish. Side note slash question. Do breeder's actually test genetics they working with or just take the word of the breeder/seed bank? I've spent 2 year's honing my outdoor CBD grow for a business venture only to find out it's possibly not pure CBD. I sourced and was told the CBD/Hemp feminized seeds where well, CBD. Anyway. Did a friend's smoke test and everyone came back saying (fuck, this is not CBD but I loved it). Not spending a grand for a lab to tell me it's not pure CBD.[emoji28] Guess it's party chocolates instead of CBD doggy biscuits hey. Sent from my S40 using Tapatalk

That's residue. Decided to give a light spray of Seagro. This is the same soil that the Strawberry Vostok did not survive in. Only difference is the pot size. Everything I planted in 20l stunted. 10l pots doing great. Suspect it's my watering. Sent from my S40 using Tapatalk

Day 21 and sex is starting to show. Pulled 2 male's. Day 51 for the big girl. I'm having more success with the auto's this time round. 10l pot is more suited to my skills level I'm finding. The @Bay Seedsmystery auto's looking healthy. These are either Strawberry Cheesecake, Lemon Larry OG or a mix of the two. Popped another 30 into the glass and put into kitchen towel today. Will be putting 3 per 10l pot and cull male's. Then into a little greenhouse I've slapped together in the shade house.

Day 46 and 16.
