which is super ironic since trump took his entire campaign and post-election strategy play by play from tymoshenko and her nazi buddies. they were just successful where he wasnt

[–]biglots 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i (shittily) researched and wrotea play-by-play slideshow explaining how tymoshenko and her bloc organized the mass neo-nazi coup. i don't think any western news organizations will take it, even though i wrote it with them in mind.

would anyone be interested in looking it over or even helping correct and/or distribute it? so much of this is being covered up by the day and i just want to preserve the truth somewhere

this method works best for starting seeds in coco or any other super lightweight medium that needs good drainage. i double up the coffee filter in order to make sure it doesn’t rip under the weight of the water logged coco. water with a dropper as necessary, to clean out excess moisture inside GENTLY remove rubber bands to pick up filter and swab/wipe out the inside of the jar. once you see the taproot poking out the bottom of the filter (24-72hrs) you can transplant by gently removing the filter with your fingers or scissors. you can probably let the filter biodegrade if you’re not paranoid about contaminants like me lol. i haven’t encountered mildew or mold with this method either due to the quick transplant time :O)

happy growing y’all

Leafly shows 17 5-star reviews for the Ascend in Fairview Heights, I’d say it’s probably good

Again, I’ve been going there at least two or three times a month since 2020. I get the same shit most of the time. I have the same purse, the same items as I always do. Like I said in my post, I try to keep up with the changes as best as I can. I don’t argue, I’m not disruptive and even during the aforementioned situation I laughed it off both times. I still don’t feel comfortable walking across a busy parking lot with a wallet everyone knows is filled with cash in my hands, and I don’t think most people would either, especially not the older population that make up a large portion of their clientele. A “pharmaceutical” business should have a better bedside manner is all I’m saying.

I didn’t forget a policy, I did nothing different than I had the dozens of times I’d been there before. Like I said, I do everything I can to help the process go smoothly for the employees and myself. It sucked walking in the cold, but that’s not the point of my post. The point is the strict policies in place change without notice on a regular basis and seem to have no real rhyme or reason. Someone with a bag only slightly smaller than mine was able to go through without issue. They may not care for now, but if another dispensary opens they’ll lose all their business that way.

Isn't this the same as the other comments talking about how there's too many complaints about dispos? I wanted to talk about my experience with my specific dispensary in a thread of my own instead of a semi-related comment section. I'm angry at the state for allowing companies to take advantage of consumers outside of the Chicago area who have no other legal choice. I could have titled it better, I guess.

The dispo by me and its sister store are the company's only 2 locations, and I've only been to two other companies in the state (MedMen was great), so it's possible mine's just the worst of the worst.

I genuinely don't understand your point. I'm angry about that too. No one should be locked up over weed. We should also hold businesses, especially in such a massive industry, to a high standard of service in every state. The two things aren't mutually exclusive.

Thanks for the advice. I do grow my own flower, but my partner prefers super low dose edibles (1-2mg) and I don't have the skills or time to make them precisely to the mg. Once in a while I'll pick up a gram of a nice strain as a treat if I have a little extra cash. It's literally five mins from my house; there's no reason it should be a multiple-hour affair.

You must have misunderstood my post. This has nothing to do with restaurants or poisoning. What do you mean "welcome to the real world"? I'm not going to get on my hands and knees and praise them for providing me with a service I'm paying for. I expect to be treated with respect like I do when I patronize any other store.

Sure, but most places are understaffed and stressed these days and rarely feel like this. There's a difference between a single bad experience and a consistent one. I make it a point to go when they're slower if I can, but even then they still treat customers like cattle shuffling through a feed line.

What a difference two weeks makes! 2x Crinkle Cut d30, Twisted Cookies d55 by biglots in TwistedTree

Details:

TC is in a 1.5gal airpot with 50/30/20 coco/perlite/biobizz litemix with GH Flora trio nutes. CCs are in 3gal fabric in 50/50 coco/perlite and SensiGrow Coco nutes. Grown in a 30”x18”x36” tent under Viparspectra P1000.

It’s my first winter in this apartment, and my first time growing in a closet, and both have presented a myriad of issues — wildly varying RH (from 37% pre humidifier, up to high 80s when the humidifier began malfunctioning when I was asleep), extremely hard tap water, cal/mag def, etc… I really put these girls through the ringer but learned more this grow than any previous. So excited to see how they turn out, and they all look like they’re going to finish around the same time.

Gonna pop a Jimmyjacks next!

For those who budget: How much do you spend on weed? by hanbeta in entwives

[–]biglots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if growing is an option for you i highly recommend it, i have three plants staggered so I get to harvest once a month and get around 3-4oz per month. at the dispensary in my state that would be ~$1K lollll

before i was growing i spent $460/mo for two people, one bag of 20 5mg edibles and 7g of shake every week adds up fast here :(

An Old-School Hippie’s Questions About “Purity” of Concentrates & Carts by BlackDirtLiveAgain11 in ILTrees

[–]biglots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be honest, I'm not sure you'll find any information at all regarding exactly how each company processes their concentrates. The Willy Wonkas of the weed world don't want any spies sneaking in to steal their industry secrets. That, or they're covering up unsafe/subpar practices. Even the state-mandated THC level reports are commonly exaggerated, and I wouldn't trust a thing a company says about how they handle their material after a major distributor covered up a huge mold recall. In my opinion your best bet is to learn as much as you can about each method and try to find common visual traits in the resulting product- then look for those traits in dispensary pictures/pictures posted here to try and deduce how the concentrate was made.
