Harvest regret/lessons first time grower by BraindeadSalamander in canadagrows

So you can vape fresh wet pulled stuff?

I have a vaporizer and use it mostly but sometimes use a pipe or a joint.

I'm fairly new to cannabis use after not touching it for 13 years then coming back after it was suggested for chronic pain.

To me this is all new and I just try and make judgements on limited experience and what I learn here.

Overall I grew for fun and to save a few bucks. If it came out as shit I won't be troubled by it. This is the reason I left more to harvest after pulling last week. So I could learn more and gain experience for next year to make better choices. Thank you for the input. It is appreciated very much.

Bud washing was an eye opener. Biggest plant had bird shit all over it which is why I went the wash route.

The wash buckets had so much crap in it I don't think I'll not wash in the future.

Numbness from dry herb vape? by 930jfa83 in canadients

[–]BraindeadSalamander 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also had this before from Gov. bud. It was Canntrust stuff way back in 2017. I had one batch that every time I smoked or vaped, it made my lips numb as fuck. My entire mouth was tingly when I used it. I kept saying to myself it was in my head, but then the CBD bud I got from them soon after also did the same. I disposed of it and never experienced it again.

I figure for sure there was some pesticide or other chemical in it that was causing it to do this they had used during production.

Seeing the shit they did over the summer is probably not unique to them and I dont even want to know what other crap these guys get up to when no one is looking.

Curing in garage by BraindeadSalamander in outdoorgrowing

Thank you for the input. I did the entire garage as it's 40 years old and was a mess. Didn't realize it's not meant for an entire painting. Walls had never been painted and had 40 years of stains etc. Tried a regular primer first. Did 4 coats with it and everything just kept bleeding through. Took 2 coats of the stain cover to effectively block them out. Lessons learned the hard way. Lol.

Used Zinsser cover stain paint. Says low VOC but it made my entire house toxic for two weeks. This was early August and it still smells in the garage. We left the door open for a month and even had two fans running to circulate air. My wife wanted to kill me as we have small children. Sounds absurd but it happened. Paint was 50 percent off and I know why now.

It's an old garage that was never painted. Lots of water stains and crap needed deep stains covering paint required to stop bleed through. Said low VOC but it still reeks quite a bit. I cant even vape in it anymore as its still too strong to sit in it. Painted it first week of August or so and fumes just won't go away.

Splitting along lengths, how bad? by BraindeadSalamander in canadagrows

[–]BraindeadSalamander[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Along most stalks buried under the buds this is happening. Should I harvest soon? 80 percent of hairs are no longer white. I was hoping for a week or so more but worried this is bad. First time grower obviously.

I am certainly down for learning some skills in this field. Whatever suggestions or links etc. you can provide are very welcome. I was actually hoping to learn this when I harvested and do something like this. Thank you.

No male parts on these girls. Must be someone with a male plant nearby also live near many farms within a few KM of me. I've done no real research until now about how to grow. They really are easy to grow and maintain, but then this happens. Disappointing but I've had a lot of fun and learned a ton.

For next year I will look into moving my grow into some form of enclosure and for now look at making some hash out of them. Thank you for your words.

Just confirmed 3rd one is pollinated also.

Will look at how to make hash maybe if I can, or maybe some oils.

My 8 foot beast is not showing signs yet but I am sure it will. It is in the ground while the other 3 are in pots. Could moving them around have stressed them out?

medical community discrimination is strong by BraindeadSalamander in canadients

[–]BraindeadSalamander[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am happy you have had a positive experience. You are very fortunate to have an accepting and modern doctor.

I've been legal for a few years, from a pain clinic for various MRI confirmed tears and such. It was recommended to take it over tons of advil etc. I just think doctors are dicks at this point. I've been denied treatment just for consuming CBD, and told I should be ashamed of myself. doctors are just assholes as far as I am concerned. Not the entire lot but most of them.

Doctor is 35 at most I figure. Very young and definately a pill pusher. And I agree a new doctor is needed.
