Last Dushera was fire ngl all thanks to

Everyone says watching movies baked is an amazing experience, but whenever I try it, I end up noticing how fake everything looks 😭

The acting, the dialogue, the dramatic scenes, the background dancers in songs... everything starts looking like a school play with a budget.

I can't even get immersed in the story because I'm too busy thinking about how stupid the whole thing looks lmao.

Does this happen to anyone else or am I just weird?

Made this charas rabri,

I Cooked 0.40 gm charas in 400ml milk and 1 tap ghee for 40 min on low flame, The taste is not very good, but it hit like a truck after two hours,

Potent af

I get pretty high from OG, but hash isn’t hitting me that hard. I tried the glass upside down method and a bong too, but it still doesn’t hit as hard as I expected.

What’s the best thing to do when you are high af?
I love eating food, listening to music but apart from this, what else do you guys do?

Had a very hectic day at work will blaze one and work again apparently weed helps me locking in

Morning Ents!

Detailed thread coming Next week. We'll talk about:

- Genetics, Selective Breeding, Hashplants, Washers.

- How Microclimate and altitude combined play a part in Charas and Hash Collection globally and why is it always the mountains.

- Understanding Resin from a Charas/Hashmaker's perspective

- Key Differences Between Charas and hash, detailed explanation of how they come out to be different products when we are just collecting Resin as the end result ( this one's for all the ents who are unclear about what is what)☺️

So I smoke weed every once in a while but yesterday it got wierd...like got home from work... After shower I light up my J, everything normal.j , the wierd part is when I was High , sitting in my room , I started hearing voices .... someone talking, kids playing, laughing, running ... first I thought of nothing, put on some music and played some games for a while ...but after a while it stared again like that static noice in the background...like I'm sitting somewhere crowded.

Going to Goa in two days. Safe to carry cbd oil? Can i pass it off as herbal remedy or something?

Hey everyone!
I've had this plant growing at home for around 3-4 months.
I randomly decided to identify it one day, and Google Lens suggested Datura innoxia, but I'm not entirely sure how reliable that identification is. I also remembered that I planted some Datura seeds myself around March, so I'm really happy that at least one of them sprouted and is finally about to flower!
l've attached pictures. Could you guys help me identify the species?
A few questions for the community:

1. Can anyone identify the exact Datura species from the attached pictures?
2. How long after blooming does a flower remain potent?
3. Does its potency change as it matures or dries?
4. Is brewing Datura as tea any different in terms of toxicity? How stable are its toxic compounds if a preparation is stored?

5. Since this would be my first time considering trying

6. Datura, what are the major risks I should know about? Is there any reliably safe dose

?
6. I've noticed that the leaves have a strong smell after rubbing them and then smelling my fingers, although I don't notice it as much when smelling them directly. Is this normal?
7. How long can Datura's effects last, and what are the warning signs of poisoning that beginners should know about?
8. What are some common misconceptions about Datura that beginners should be aware of?

1. Thanks in advance!

This was my first time trying to make something from air dry clay.

The first one is actually also a incense stick holder. Gifted the other 2 to my best friend. Lol.

I heard this song when i candy flipped for the first time obsessed with this song give it a listen especially if you are baked:)

Can someone guide me how to control the smell during flowering phase and during curing

I live in a flat

The plant has started to grow I'm doing it inside an almirah/cupboard I'm little bit concerned about smell when it reaches the flower phase

I don't want to raise eyebrows and get caught

Experienced growers plz suggest some alternatives for carbon filter

Will normal air filter suffice

💛 🚬 Don't mind his condition, he's 13+ yrs old. Lol

Helloo psychonauts! I Could not be excited enough to start this informative and valuable information I learnt about this beautiful and unique Concentrate over many many years.✨

I bring forth good wishes, well being and prosperity to all you ents out there!! I bring only Knowledge on the table, unfiltered and everything I know. 🌼

Is Charas just a result of a different resin collection technique? Or an ancient handcraft that got passed down the line thousands of years ago to generations?

I personally like to believe it's both, charas collection has evolved itself over the years in terms of technique, not just hand rubbing but from the very scratch i.e genetics/ seed selection.

Frenchy cannoli said and I myself believe strongly in it. "Charas is the first ever cannabis concentrate humans would have discovered". Why did he say that and why does it make sense?Imagine being a human back in the day just touching the buds and finding some sticky residue on his fingers after that.✨ He immediately would not have figured out what it is, but that must have been the first time resin was collected from the cannabis flower. Later when we would have figured out about this plant's medicine, curious minds must have thought about that sticky resin that smells loud like the plant,has that pungent sniff to it, It would have eventually moved forward from there and evolved to what we call "hand rubbed and collected".

• Is Charas and Hashish (hash) the same Thing?

No. Charas and Hashish are not the same thing. Hashish is a different form of artisinal resincraft that is made from dried flower, separation technique of hash is Seiving.

Charas is unique because it's collected from a live plant and comes under the category of Live Resin (in modern terms).

The collection technique is rubbing the live flowers between your palms and fingers gently. It is dried and cured after collection unlike dry sift which is dried and cured before collection.

Which one is Better?

Both have equally pristine standards in my eyes!🔥 Both are unique products in itself and one can't compare apples to oranges ✨

We can have a separate Detailed Thread about Hashish, I do have intermediate experience with ice water hash so it'll be a fun discussion 🌼

Understanding Charas/Brief evaluation.

Finally to talk about the piece of study for us for the coming year..It would be the one in the Pictures.

We'll go with the drill today with the quality of your piece, how to judge/evaluate it,Smell and burn test are some few key pointers to know about your smoke and notice these things everytime to form a monitory pattern overtime in your mind.

We'll discuss how I store and age my smoke and why aging is highly recommended and beneficial!

Most of you must be wondering why this Piece? It looks like some normal hash none of the stretchy super stuff!? It's on purpose and I'll explain why!

I like to believe this could be the perfect piece to show y'all how aging can actually transform your charas and hash both to a completely different level.

I really considered this piece as it's like my regular smoke, something I enjoy on a regular basis and this is my bechmark, like even on the Worst day I'll atleast smoke this kinda quality. This is the kinda grade most folks get as cream, so it should be great info for them as well, maybe I can clear the term jungla/jungli out better with this piece using % as a metric.

it's overall most distributed/accessible kinda specimen to help people relate to, it has everything in it to explain plant material (i prefer material as contaminants sound really sad to me🥲), it has both calyx, bracts and good amount of resin in it to help everyone see the transformation over the year by the process of aging.

This piece is somewhere from the parvati Valley at the altitude of 2750m from sea level. Its great smoke and it'll become unimaginable smoke after 10-12 months.

In the 1st image you're looking at an unpressed piece of some high end jungla/jungle from the valley. Why do I call it high end jungla? Because you can zoom in(img 2.) a bit and can see enough plant contaminants, mostly calyx and very trace amounts of seed bracts. If you look more closely at the intersection image (Img 2.) and you can see dense brown resin too (light shade of green is also there).

If you take a gram of your specimen and spread it out or tear apart from between for an intersection like in (Img.2) and observe. If more than 35% of your piece has plant material, it's jungla.

Is it bad? NO. It's just hash made for quantity. End goal of hashmakers who make jungla is quantity. Number of grams per number of hours ratio is the game in it. It's cheap and if your eye and evaluation is good you can find some fire smoke like this one!🔥

Why this Piece is good?

This piece is great because of a combination of factors ie. Genetics/Selective Breeding with efficient grow teks, Placement of Farm and technique of the hashmaker/s.

"No matter how great of a hashmaker you are, your hash is great not because of you alone but also because of the the farmer who grew the plant. He did 80% of the job done right and now you will do the 20%"-- Frenchy Cannoli

Hashmaker is nothing without the farmer. They both are yin and Yang, the sea and sky of Charas/hashmaking. Grateful to the farmers who taught and allowed me to work along with them,eat with them and help me pass on what I learnt.

Farmer grew a great crop at a great altitude which produced BIG trichome heads compared to a regular trichome you don't usually see around lower altitudes.

Rubbing such big heads eventually benefits trichome volume in this piece. Refer to (image 3.) this is the image of the same piece upon pressing it, hate to say but in tier 1 Cities people sell these as cream too. It's the same piece as (image 1 and 2) after pressing it. It took that malleable shape because it has enough trichome along with other plant material/contaminants.

Tear apart your piece next time and observe the amount of plant material to evaluate. Less plant material is a better hand than higher plant material. By hand i mean hands that rubbed the charas. Lesser plant material means time has been consumed on cleaning the hand while rubbing too, which if done right can affect your Charas tremendously in a positive way.(We'll get into it in the next article)

YOUR CHARAS AND HASH SHOULD BE BROWN AND NOT GREEN ☺️

Green colour is a clear indication of chlorophyll in your hash and it's not bad, these pieces had chlorophyll in them, they were green in and out, that light green color you see during start of rubbing season (mid Sep-Oct end) it dries off and eventually chlorophyll will kinda corrose itself within the resin overtime without harming it if preserved in the right manner. It's been 27 days of drying and curing(more about it below in dry/cure/age segment) and the piece is gradually turning brown.✨

So just because it's green it doesn't mean bad, but if you can see 40% really dark green tone and 60% light green tone in your hash when it's recently rubbed, have trust it'll disintegrate with time like this piece did.

Smell/Fragrance as a Factor to Evaluate

This is highly subjective and the most tricky one. For me its like I can tell if my piece has some mixing/adulteration in it easier than trying to describe how fire hash smells.

I'll try to describe this Piece. Just after rubbing till the next 15 days most charas, including high end super cream smell like just normal grass or like a regular plant, because of chlorophyll which releases while rubbing the plant, after that span of time it gradually takes on the smell the plant was throwing off of its flower/sugar. This is a transformation only time can do. higher the chlorophyll/plant material, longer it'll take to adapt to its desired state. Flower drying curing process is almost similar.

After that point and let's say today, its smelling exactly how it smells every year, Lemon/Citrus, Tones of Apple and plum. There's slight gas to it.

"Every cannabis product have a common pungent essense to it. Be it flower,hash,rosin or anything. Try to connect and identify that essense. Once you catch hold of it, you can never go wrong."

-- Frenchy Cannoli

You can even burn little bit of hash and you should smell the flower easily.

Taste Test

Again highly subjective, but generally taste should be like the smell profile or similar if it's good charas. There are many flavour profiles like earthy, spicy, fruity and some are a mix of earthy and fruity. It's vast and it depends on terpene profile of the plant. But surely it should not smell off when you smoke it, it should not be bitter, the smoke should be clean and dense if it's good hash with good resin. There should be a dank feeling in the throat (subjective again).

Coming To the last and most Interesting Point of today..Why is storing properly is really important for us to prevent the precious Trichomes? What is Aging?

Properly storing your Hash is as important as making it right. I'm gonna show you and try to explain why I store my hash like this.

Pressing

Pressing your hash is really important, pressing makes your Trichome head explode and eases out the juice evenly in your hash, no loss in potency is there, in fact it enhances the whole smoke.

Press and make a ball of it(Img 4.) make sure the ball is well compressed, wrap it around a cellulose based cellophane sheet (you can use plastic too, not my 1st choice). Wrap it tight(img.5-6)push it in maintaining the spherical shape and twist the wrapped ends from top. It leaves no space to breathe within that. Plan is to suffocate the piece for air to prevent oxidation.

Make such balls and keep vaccum seal it(img 8.)

Do the above if you're sure about your hash being cured at least 65%

Aging Process:

Compare this process with Wine Aging. Is it exactly the same.

-- Frenchy Cannoli

Aging has been a process that has worked wonders for me. Best pieces I've personally smoked are the ones which were properly aged for at least 1 year. You can age for a really long time .

Hash and Charas both can be aged for long time and for better result over the years.

What Happens When we Age the Charas? Is aging and curing the same thing?

No. Curing and Aging are Two different things. In Charas, because of less plant material than flower as a whole, after 1 month there's barely anything left to cure. It takes the desired terpenes and the effects during this time, preserving it right can enhance it tremendously.

Do try with your stash no matter the grade, I'd love to hear your experiences✨

With aging, charas acts like wine or even a pickle. Overtime it reacts within itself, a chemical transformation happens over the span of months and years. It becomes extremely smooth smoke, all of the chlorophyll(if any in the charas left after drying and curing)also is kinda digested in the dense trichome and it's transformation if it's suffocated well. We'll study more about this particular process in practical and real time with the help of this test subject piece and well open and check it time to time let's say next 2 months later we'll take a sneak peak! And we will continue to observe it till next October arrives. It will change its look, it's resin visibility (shine). Smell(will become louder) and overall consistency of the piece.

I will be discussing More about Genetics, Selective breeding, Hashplants and a bit about handrubbing in next article. Over the year I'll cover in depth details weekly or monthly (depends on the time I can invest here). It's truly important to know the science behind Everything and I'll take a step at a time✨

Hope y'all will like this thread for now that it is, hope you'll like the entire journey till next year October.☺️

Have a good day ahead guys. Boom!💥

Apologies if I could not explain well, not a really good teacher 🙏🏽

Firstly is it even possible to eliminate the tobacco? If so, what’s a good starting one to acquire.

thanks !

Yet I keep wasting it.😂

Hello fellow psychonauts. This post is about something very close to my heart, about which I'm connected to since last 7 years into on-ground information and experience about hand rubbing and overall the Plant itself. Most of the information are the teachings of the great legend, late frenchy cannoli. I have integrated many techniques of him myself in my journey and I cannot be thankful enough to him for his contribution towards the plant and in the valley.

I want to make an in depth series of posts over the entire year not much about rubbing but about the final Product itself. How is it different from other concentrates like hashish, How are the plants trained for better yields, information about trichome maturity, different grades in purity of the charas, how charas should be judged as a good or not soo good smoke. And Most importantly how storing properly can change the composition of it overtime and will discuss the benefits for it. In this whole journey we will be studying this very small piece from the valley grown at the altitude of 2760 metres for an entire year from tomorrow. I would make another post tomorrow starting the journey. This was just an introduction 🙏🏽
