Knowing when to harvest your medicine...

To assist our tribe is knowing when it is right for them to harvest their cannabis to aid in their medical journey I have copied and pasted a chart to guide you on your decision making. As trichomes age they change. Depending on your goal for your cannabis usage depends on when to harvest. This chart is a very handy reference to have near your grow. I have this one pinned to the inside of my garden shed. I only grow outdoors not in.

I hope you find this information useful as you are learning to grow better medicine.

Making Paper at Home

I have wanted to make paper for quite some time now but kept putting it off. I found a free blender (should not use for food after processing paper) I no longer had an excuse to put it off. I waited until the garden was in and independent.

I watched a bunch of videos that honestly made it look easy but you had to purchase this and buy that. I had saved the screens from when we had new windows installed and that was my plan to use them.

I pulled out the sawhorses and set up the kettle. I will skip the kettle now. I just will let it soak a couple of days. You get a LOT of pulp from a small amount of paper. I got some old work papers and started ripping. I put the paper in a bucket and poured the hot water over it to let soak overnight (highly recommend).

I had 4 buckets soaking overnight. I set things up to be ready for the next phase.

The next morning I put lots of water from my collection tank into the blender with softened paper and pureed it! I used an old t-shirt I had cut up to pour my mixture onto and did it over 2 buckets to save some of the water run off.

I filled up my screens and tried some on material to absorb water and a few just on the screen. The next morning they were dry enough to peel off and I hung them in my shed to finish drying.

Once I figure out the consistency of the pulp in the blender then I will add flowers and seeds for gifting. But as of right now I have not yet mastered the ratio of water to pulp. It has been fun and at the end of it I get pretty paper.

Any paper that does not meet the cut goes back in the slew and mixed up for the next batch.

I am planning on making seed paper, colourful flowers, and leaves, I will also use canna leaves once I start trimming my ladies as I will have lots to add. I am also toying with the idea of using a red cabbage to dye a batch of paper.

Have you ever made paper? Do you want to but like me were putting it off? Do it! When the temperatures are high it is nice to work with water and stay coolish!

Please share if you have made paper. Did it work the way you thought it would? Did you enjoy the process?

Learning how to LST (low stress training) is not as easy as the experts such as u/pirateboarder make it look. It takes practice. Year 3 of practicing and it is beginning to work.

Do NOT come at me about how the plant looks. The plant is fine. The plant will rebound. The plant will produce more colas this way. Unless you have tried LST and been on point the first few attempts - you have no idea how finicky it is to do.
