It’s incredible how the vinyl resurgence has meant that you can get inexpensive, not-terrible turntables again, for most of my life it’s been shitty Crosley and other almost useless stuff, toy record players were all that existed in the low end. But we just got one of these last year to listen to our expanding record collection and man it’s pretty good! Got ours new for like $90 on sale, they go used for $50 all the time now too. I would rather have gotten the Touring model but am pretty happy with the regular one, the DJ upgrade to DD is maybe worth it but with an undersized platter IDK if it matters. We run ours out through the headphone jack to a set of Logitech Z200 speakers I got for free but there’s RCA and USB as well, I think the DJ model adds optical out? Eventually I’m going to assemble a Frankenstein HiFi system I’ve been acquiring mostly free over the years. Check these out for a starter record setup I’m super happy with mine for under $100 it gets the job done:
The discontinued Touring model was more of a suitcase real classy and better speakers but no USB out for archiving:

I just looked up the one I was using at Thanksgiving and it’s a lot cheaper than I thought! Jeez I thought it was like a Technics 1200 a grand or so but $300 for a nice refined DD turntable is wild!

This joint is a watershed moment for me, this is the first joint of two outdoor plants I’ve been involved in growing, and also two strains I couldn’t really get any other way:
It’s a heirloomed landrace mixed with some CBG only bud descended from fiber hemp. Malana Village sativa hashplant and OC V2 CBG derived from Bernabeo
Feels pretty good man, I’ll report back on the effects along with the CBG mixed with Big Don that I smoked last night

Nice choice! I used to roll spiffs all the time, still do on occasion. What’s that leather pouch with the paper slot?
Glad to hear you are enjoying the Malana, beautiful plant. It’s interesting that’s the first outdoor you’ve grown, similarly I’m really looking forward to smoking my own indoor.
Cheers!

Just been reading through this and think you’re really killing it. Loving the evolution to the medium you’re in. Lil late to the party but lemme slide right in, if I can. Happy to be seeing your stuff

Welcome @DirtySlowToes ! Hope you enjoy the future adventures too, I just got back from thanksgiving travel so updates are coming, first one is that I chopped down the dried Janis plant and tried a tester, it’s very good! And look at these beautiful mature seeds of Janis x Vortex, this is all from one lower bud the size of a mini Bic:

An update on that OC V2 CBG flower: it’s pretty interesting! It’s tasty enough to smoke on its own, and mixed 50/50 with a Type 1 strain (Big Don) I felt extremely mellow and relaxed while riding a sativa high, it was superb overall in effect. I’ll be planting some more of these alt cannabinoid seeds soon to grow for myself, I’ve got a bunch left with CBG/CBD/THCV

Shoutout to the OG @JustANobody he hooked me up for free with some pucks to ship all these seeds that I’m making (the Lane cedar chest salesman’s model came from Thanksgiving basement scrounging):

Malana Garage smoke report: smokes like an old strain (pretty smooth, pretty grassy herby spicy mostly, big fat puffy joints) but this one grown on salts definitely hits a little harder than the organic. Pasture so far has been pretty light and dreamy, this Garage is very thinky and more energetic with some body vibration feelings besides the euphoric sort of hazy niceness. More testing required….

How long have they been curing? I only ask because I could see the salts-grown plant smoking “better” early on, while the organically-grown one might need a little more time in jars. And I really have no idea why that thought just occurred to me, but it did haha.

Not very long, arguably not at all yet? I am just getting them into Grove bags off the branches now. They got harvested back in late October

Yeah, I thought you had just chopped those, but I wasn’t positive. Anyway, just curious.
