Awesome!! I had no idea I could do that. Is that something you don’t want to have to do?
I mean, better to decarb before. That’s more of a last resort?

It is better to decarb first. But if wasnt good enough can be finished in the oil.

Great to know!! Thank you for that, I appreciate it! I still have a full jar of another batch made with majority of trim. We thought that was on the weaker side, so we’re hoping this is a little more potent.
Will the extra time it sat in there make it anymore potent do you think? The machine turns off, I think it just stirs it while it was on the levo base.

Time in solution just removes the cannabis oils from plant matter. The decarb is the most important part.

Over decarbing and under screw with potency. Make sure you mix up the grass every 5 minutes or so during decarb. All should be sorta brown and nutty smelling when done.

A little too long. Stick to 30-40 at 230-240. Long decarb burns off terps and will degrade thc. You will notice it being weaker. Practice makes perfect.

Well the chocolates were a hit. Ate 3 of the bigger ones last night and felt no pain and slept right through my alarm and was late for work. Ha!
The wife went back for more tonight, I figure I better hold off until tomorrow.

Happy Saturday Growmies!
Water day today. I filled the bases this morning with ph’d water only, coming in at 6.6/320.
Also gave 12 ounces to the little one of 6.8/320.
Sprayed the inside of the cup on that one before I watered and I noticed a slight leaf twist on the single finger leaf, but I’m not too worried about it just yet. I figure it’s something to do with lower humidity.
Things are looking good though around the tent. Going to eat some chocolates today and do a little grocery shopping. Should make it interesting at least haha!
7 days old today.
45-50 days old today.

I’m going to make that next, just have to get to the liquor store.
It’s really that more potent?

Oh yes it is! 1 gram of the concentrate equals between 750-800 mg thc. When I first started I just let the Everclear evaporate which can get costly so then I decided to purchase the Source Turbo… it reclaims about 89% of the alcohol each time.
I normally make 75 gummy bears with 4 grams of concentrate and each gummy is 40 mg each.

Hello again folks, happy Wednesday!
Water day today for the ladies in my tent. I’ve been trying to fill bases every 4 days and it seems like it has been working good. Another thing I am trying this go around is adding calmag every other watering. Only 2 mls, but it seems like it’s going good I think.
Each of the big plants will get 1.5 gallons in their bases, they are full now, after work I’ll add the remaining 1/4 gallon to each and should be good for 4 more days.
They got 6.6/4500 with 2 ml calmag.
The little one got 4 cups today of just 6.6/330. Watered out from the plant and that’s it. I will be filling her base next watering. It’s early, but it should be fine.
Things are looking good. A little coloring is coming through on the sunset sherbert. I don’t think it’s a deficiency though.
What do you guys think of them? Let me know.
Have a good one ya’ll!

I could easily be wrong, though I’ll add that some plants get a tad pale in flower, and the reddish color looks like it could be from cooler/lights-off temps. Keep an eye out, though, see if it’s simply the plant being like that or if it progresses, if it’s something else. These are autos? Sorry, I should know, I haven’t been on the forum much and I forget sometimes who is growing what. 
Edit: Your journal title is Autos with Grow Dots … Autos, twelve1, duh!
