• Question for the DGC! Curious as to how long do you keep product around? Im so spoiled since i have become a full time grower that i find myself in a sort of a dilemma with extra poundage laying around,(mids) and I personally wont smoke it but do have a couple friends that do like it. (If its over 6 months old I turn my nose up at it). Never would have happened a few years ago,lol. So i have been giving it away to a few select friends and i now want it gone. Should i just Shit can it, or give it all away and maybe hurt myself a little if you catch my drift? What do y’all do? Oh ,And my freezer is already full of flower for edibles so that a no go too. Thanks! MO

        • Refrigeration is the only way to keep high quality flower for longer than 3 months in storage.

          • I just switched to this method of storage. Right now I have cured the buds in terplock grove bags and am now switching to vacuum sealed jars in as wine fridge. I am not sure what to set it to, I set it to 60 degrees for now just to keep it a little cooler.

        • I don’t have that kinda stash yet. But I won’t even buy more than a gram of flower anymore. Dispensaries have me spoiled. Especially here in Oklahoma. If you trip and fall in this state, you have about an 85% chance of standing up and finding yourself in 9 different dispensaries. Shit. Back in the day though. I would tell my best friend I had a bud at home and needed to borrow his pipe. Only intention would be to scrape said pipe and smoke his resin. Return it acting like I thought I was just being nice returning it clean. Kids today don’t even know…

          • @myokgarden how hard is it to get a license to grow?

            • $2500 for commercial. $0 for card holders. I’m just a card holder.

              • Oh, and it super easy for any license here. Hence the insane amount of dispensaries. As long as you don’t have “ I SELL DRUGS TO 8 YEAR OLDS!” on your forehead you’re good. Probably safe if it was on the neck. Should be able to render it illegible enough with a collared shirt to suffice. The laws here are lax and serves the small grower well.

            • @myokgarden definitely relate. Ive smoked some nasty shit back in the 70’s, lol. I think there is one dispo in the immediate area here in Virginia, legal mumbo jumbo for the most part, ive never been in one.

            • @myokgarden back in the day … What are the stages when you’re out?

              Cleaning the grinders. Using up the keef. Old Roach ends in the bowl. Double checking the sift bin. Old bowl resin. …

              Never thought about smoking my buddies bowl resin ;p

              • I’m currently saving roach ash for use as an amendment. Trying all kinds of weird stuff. I tossed raw egg into a compost tea the other day. Let it brew for an additional 12. Nothing has died. Trying to stumble upon the next great recipe.

            • I like making green dragon tincture out of mine . I like to dkk on the long method were I let it soak in ethanol for about 90 days there is also a quicker process by warming it which can be done pretty quick.

              I find myself giving shit away all the time but my best advice as I assume you’re going to do naturally is give it away selectively and strategically. Best wishes
