Re: Setting up a lab

What about chromatography equipment?

Gas or HPLC? The latter is more expensive, I reckon the first, used, could be had for a few grand perhaps.

What about reference material? Are they difficult to obtain and how much do they cost?

Re: Green Dragon Extraction

I think he said up to 1ml/dose but I could be wrong. ;) There are smaller cheaper sonicators and you can even use the larger jewelry type too. ;) I re-read the posts and indeed he said 5ml would put us on our butts for a while... it depends of the potency of the GD ofc and I'm on a tight schedule a...

Setting up a lab

I've reached a point where I no longer need to funnel several hundreds of dollars into my medicine each month since I've invested the capital to grow my own. SME helped me setup an efficient perpetual grow which should yield enough products for me to experiment freely with. I would like to setup a s...

Re: Green Dragon Extraction

Thanks for sharing! I hope you feel better soon. I've begun the process, very excited to try this out. This should come in handy on my red eye (pun intended). Why upgrade to business class for comfortable seats when you can sleep in a coma in coach? :D Assuming sublingual administration and an agave...

Re: Infused Honey Elixir - Dragon Style

What is your personal preference between using honey or agave nectar? Where I am from we have a lot of bee honey producers so it's readily available everywhere, agave nectar is mostly imported stuff. If possible I prefer to support local producers, but not if agave is a superior option. Though if it...

Re: Infused Honey Elixir - Dragon Style

Can't wait to try this, I'll start the process tomorrow.

I wonder where I could find amber bottles and pipettes or droppers? Pharmacy?

It will be fantastic to experiment with edibles and the GD... the method of using butter ruined every recipes I ever tried.

Re: Green Dragon Extraction

You can make honey and agave nectar elixirs for oral application or for use in recipes. Could you share this recipe? I am going to the US on vacation next week, the first vacation in three years. My ulcerative colitis is flaring and I am very concerned about leaving home without some cannabinoids w...

Manicuring

My understanding of automatic trimmers is that they do a good job with big colas but won't work with popcorn, correct? Yesterday I harvested a single plant I had scrog'd and it took me an entire afternoon to manicure the whole thing. It was a single plant, too. Can't imagine doing this on any scale ...

Re: Organizing grow area

Fencing is a seasonal item here so I doubt I will be able to find them in stock anywhere. Waiting time + shipping isn't attractive, not to mention THE PRICE. They insane? 113$ for 8 feet of ABS lol

I'll just buy the pipe and borrow my father's bench drill to make the holes for the sprayers.
