The best part of the “door prize” is literally everyone gets to choose one from a big table of them and no one walks out empty handed. I’ve picked up a couple strains from just attending!
How in the hell do you have so much time to do what you do, (work, grow, make salves, distribute seeds, etc…) yet you also have time to carve intricate designs on walking sticks? You, my friend, are not human. Are you a “Lizardperson”?
Hey Sebring (and others),
Let me pick your brain. What would you say would be the best container to save pollen, in the freezer? I have heard that some folks use those little “pointy bottomed” plastic things that they use in labs. If so, where is a good place to get them?
Here is how I have saved pollen for long term storage:
Here is a link to the containers.
Globe Scientific 111558 Polypropylene Graduated Microcentrifuge Tube with Snap Cap, 1.5ml Capacity, Natural (Pack of 1000) Amazon.com
Yes, you’d think that. I started with 100 and I think I used almost half already to store seeds (cannabis and others). Pollen comes next. They are quite handy.
Do you honestly think I haven’t already tried that?
BTW, if you are going to do that I advise you to do whatever carving you’re planning on doing to the thick stem, but be careful, because it’s even softer than balsa wood; then coat the whole thing in very thin epoxy resin (you want it to soak in really well). Cannabis stems are so porous when dried that they shatter if any weight is applied to them, hence you need multiple coats of resin to really sink in.
I actually use whatever is big enough and available to hold the amount of pollen I’ve collected. Then I add the desiccant beads right in with the pollen, because it doesn’t harm the pollen and it assures that it stays at a maximum dryness. I use a cheap paint brush to hit flowers with, so the beads get left behind!
Iv seen a lot of those damn things used as geocache containers , evil little bastards they drill them into wood and shit and set them flush I’d say those are probably the best IMO
I was wondering about that inner wood the outside seems pretty darn ridged to me but never carved on one I do think the MENDO dope boys mix stand is pretty cool though!
Mendo Dope is a Hip Hop group and grow some giant trees. They record their music in one of the cannabis plants and even made a mic stand out of one of their cannabis plants.
Oops mispelling MIC stand a couple years ago they made a mic stand holder out of one of their cannabis trunks you can see it on some of their music viideos at times when they play!
My Sebring’s Revenge grows stems like that. I just might have to grow a big plant to see if I can do a 6’ staff lol. Won’t be able to fit it in a structure, so I’ll have to figure out where I can do it.
They grow in GIANT soft pots made for them. Takes 2 of them with a wheel barrow about 30 minutes to even fill up one pot!!! Watched a vid on it and laughed my ass off. Would LOVE to be ABLE to do that!!!
