I made myself a batch of peppermint cream. 6% flavor art peppermint, 1% flavor art marshmallow and .5% capella fresh cream. And a totally unmeasured amount of sweetener till I liked the sweetness level. I was gonna wait till the season was appropriate for peppermint candy but I just couldn't help it. Merry holidays or something like that!!

    I think the majority (although not all) states have medical MMJ programs. The husband has little trouble he just shows the doc the scar on his neck.

    But like.... This is like ANYONE can "enroll" and get CBT with like JUST enough THC to get you arrested. They are supposed to like, ah, do something in 3 months or so or whatever. IDK. All the states around have it but you need an address.

    Maybe we need a hunting cabin somewhere. LOL.

    I mixed some more ry4 cream tonight and used the holy ry4 again. I also mixed 50ml of brdz lemon pound cake. I’m going to use it as a base to add different fruits to.
    Sounds like a plan :)

    They both go up to 500 and the scale I got today has 0.00g my other one was like 0.0
    Someone else may have already suggested, but jic... have you calibrated the scale? Should be “how to” instructions in the box it came in. Also, did you hit “tare” to zero it out?
    Also, the scales we use are the same kind schools use in chemistry etc classes. You should be able to find plenty videos on how to make it work.

    Poor husband is like, detoxing off HIS legal where we were, ah, medication called THC. So, WV has a "medical marijuana program" which involves being able to buy cbd with up to 3% THC in it and you don't even know HOW HIGH it's not labeled. He was all snappy when he like wandered past and I said, "Hi, how is it going?" He said I was "Talking just to talk. LOL.; So I said, "Fine I can ignore him." Only then he wandered by with the droopy eyes and I went, "Are you down to smoking RESIN? Oh honey."

    Funny thing happened when we were picking up the pup. The breeder lived at the top of a small mountain, and his house was in the sticks. As we were leaving I told my wife, "Do you smell that skunk?" The breeder says, "that may be a skunk you smell, or it could be my plant--Do you want to see it?"

    He takes me into the back, and in his small garden he had a single plant that was about 14 foot tall. It was by far the largest plant I ever saw. That's pretty amazing when you consider I use to install dosing pumps and irrigation for grow farms (livestock too) in most of the legal states for a living. I can only imagine the yield he will get from that thing.

Yes - No, it just depends . . . :rolleyes:

    Try weighing a nickel or a penny. Nickel weighs 5 grams a penny weighs 2.5 grams. Then you can see if your scale is weighing correctly. It is also imperative to have it on a very flat service.

    Tried it on both scales with a nickel. Weighs fine on both. It is having a hard time picking up just like 5 to 10 drops and then it wants to go from 0 and shoot up there after some time has passed. It is almost like there lagging. The scale I got today will weigh up to 5000g. My son's pocket scales say 500 x 0.1 g and there more responsive than the new digital one I got today. Guess I'm gonna take it back and get something else. Ty for the advice.

    On the new scales I've tried everything. The only place I could find some scales is a Walmart and all the scales was in the cooking department. Yes I've hit the tare button. It just don't want to pick up when I am doing a very small batch.

    What size of mix are you trying to do? It sounds like the scale is doing what it is suppose to. You just need patience. All scales take a few seconds before weighing in. Unless you want the professional scales labs use you will pay hundreds if not thousands of dollars. You could always try syringes or drops you count for such small batches.

    I'm going to link some scales recommended in this thread. There may be more but I found three so far. Just search the thread for "scales".

    Monday morning, mixers.

    Yes, pretty much done stocking vape items, and also yes, expendables (flavors, PG, VG and such) don't count. Doesn't mean I don't still window(s) shop, or won't get something that piques my interest ;)
