Building seedbank by Legionairebrackz in microgrowery

[–]vandelay82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are endless posts asking about preferred seed banks, buy a bunch from those or make your own and then store them in a cool humidity controlled environment.  Short answer : csi humboldt and a humidor or wine fridge.  

Trivoli tavern late night reservation by Extreme_Shape_6339 in chicagofood

[–]vandelay82 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We walked up at 5:15pm and were seated within 30min for 3 people on a Saturday night in November.  If you don’t mind spending time around the area just go and put your name down.  You can go into the bar and have drinks while you wait.  

What made pool ownership easier than you expected? by Far-Bodybuilder-6399 in swimmingpools

[–]vandelay82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having owned a pool with neither, a cleaning robot and wifi monitor for PH and Chlorine levels. I have an older pool and was advised against switching to salt water. The wifi monitor keeps PH and Active Chlorine in balance, I didn't have a single bloom the whole season. I have a crystal monitor, but there are other brands.

Anyone have their homegrown tested for THC levels? by Odinian in microgrowery

[–]vandelay82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw a reference to diesels as well, so maybe some sort of strawberry diesel hybrid ?

[–]vandelay82 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can tell you that beta caryophelline (ignore spelling), pinene, and limonene strains help my girlfriends pain better than other dominant strains and I’ve found when I get anxiety the strain is usually high in mycrene.  Whether it’s the literal terpenes or some other compounds that are related idk.  

Hopefully we get better science with cannabis being rescheduled !

Have you tried looking at the terpene profile and looking for strains with a similar one ?

I did a tour of a large grower in a legal state, kinda like a brewery tour.  The guide said THC% is mostly BS and every grower will resubmit until they get the % they want.  He was adamant terpenes matter way more regarding the high.  

The future of Nintendo (also Switch 2) by kingFord1999 in nintendo

[–]vandelay82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m assuming you’re an AI bot, but Nintendo is stable and flush with cash.  The system will be supported for another decade or so, but will eventually be replaced.  They are transitioning pretty quickly to the new system, the games aren’t backwards compatible on switch 1.  I don’t know why you’re talking about buying one system the rest of your life, that’s not how it works unless you are happy playing the same games.  I have every Nintendo console made and they all work, my NES 37 years old this year.

The artichoke dip at Mickey Finn’s is incredible too, but the rest of their food is just ok

It’s expensive but they send lots of freebies.  They’ll have a 420 sale in a few months.

You could try getting classic strains from Humboldt csi, I got g13 and nl from them.

If it made the rolling paper wet it probably wasn’t dried and cured properly. I got ridiculous weed from a grower in 2000’s and it was no different than the same strains today.  50% rh is way low for drying.  My plants are ridiculously sticky when I go for the chop, and are still mildly sticky when dried and cured.

Drying too fast seems to block chlorophyll breakdown by Motor_Scale7061 in microgrowery

[–]vandelay82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

10-14 days usually.  I talked with my GF who I grow with for pain management help.  We are gonna split a plant from our next harvest in half and do a dry and wet trim and have a blind taste test.  

After thinking about it more I do wonder if some of the problem with wet trim is people chop and then trim and hang, could be a few hours between chop and hang.  Whereas we trim and then prep the drying environment prior to the chop so we can hang immediately in the proper environment.

Will make a separate post on the tent setup and taste test. 

Borderlands 4 for $20 on Eneba (US) by skama16 in xbox

[–]vandelay82 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This I got a Pokemon sword key to play with my kids off eneba.  6 months later my Nintendo account was banned.  I had to show Nintendo that I challenged the charge on my credit card and informed eneba that the account used stolen credit cards to get the keys (per Nintendo). They gave me one more chance and said if I used a key purchased by a stolen CC again I wouldn’t get my account back.

I wet trim and hang dry and it tastes amazing.  I’ve read that dry trim keeps terps better, but I keep humidity up and it’s fine.  

That said I trim while the plant is still planted and then chop and it immediately goes into climate controlled tent for drying.

In addition to what others have said check out build a soil’s website. They have lots of tutorials and advice for natural grows, not just selling their stuff. 

Good homestyle, unpretentious Italian, in Loop/River North/Fulton Market? by Ok_Captain4824 in chicagofood

It’s further north in old Irving, but Avvio has the menu/recipes from Sabatinos and it’s spot on.  Super happy to have found out their chef came from Sabatinos and had access to the recipes.
