One word that fits this Don asshole is FRAUD.

 

I think he lives up to this name quite well what do you crew all think.????

 

regards,dingo-2008.

 

I think it should be pointed out that The Don (Langdon Brown) is not the only one out there profiting from the sick whilst claiming compassion.

The Hemp Embassy, The Wellness Clinic, Church of Ubuntu and there are many others whose oil prices are similar to and in some cases higher than The Dons prices.

IMO anyone profiting under the banner of compassion should all be named and shamed.

 

I'll be backing those who give their cannabis away or charge a small nominal charge to cover costs if it's under the banner of compassion, not the profiteers and scammers.

Well Joan, I personally think you are telling jolly big furphies... but if you have $500-600 a week to drop on the Don's oil - go for it, but I'd like it if you stop pontificating about how you are happy to pay... most of Australia doesn't have that sort of money to blow on a product of dubious effect.

I was trying to keep my nose out of this thread, but here is how things ACTUALLY work for people that make and donate medical oil.


You get a group of people and growers who have genuine, non profit motive to supply people with medical cannabis oil that are suffering.

These people you see every day, they work next to you, serve you at counters, mow your lawns... they are everybody.

They work normal jobs, pay taxes and follow every other law in this country except this one.

They take a portion of their legal, tax paid wages and pool it together as a collective to pay for a site to grow.

They pay for the capitol, the equipment, the electricity and all consumables with legitimate tax paid income.

They all share the workload and donate their time to growing and oil extraction and it is passed on to be given to across the country to those in need.


There is no illegitimate, illegal money or profit made from the production.

Every dollar paid for the production is from hard earned work of a normal paying job. These people donate their time and money to give something to those in need for 100% free.

There are no exceptions, this is strictly non profit.

The problem the government has with people like this is that financial motive has been removed from the equation, and this makes somebody very dangerous when they cannot be bought, seduced or corrupted by money.

This is what cannabis oil is all about.

Making your life about something more.

Hollywood movies mock the notion that "One person can change the world" by showing heroes that are beyond our capabilities.

This makes us feel like "Im just one person, what can I possibly do?"

One plant has the power to save a life. Save one persons life out of compassion and you will realize YOU DO have an amazing power.

Combined as growers, one plant each, we can save the lives of thousands.

Dont underestimate yourself, you are so powerful and you dont even realize it

G'day Folks 

Thought  I'd start a SSS strain pic dump point 

In the hope anyone else growing or grown SSS strains could use this for they're fav strain pic's 

So others considering SSS could have a look at possible suitable strains that might interest them

in one place 

Also hoping you guys might like to start other breeder pic dump points

 

Breeder related bud porn fest basically

anyways here i go

 

Bubble Fuck

Pulled a little early , humidity has been a problem this year & 

the buds on the Bubble are very dense & solid , i lost 3 decent buds over a week

so it was time to go

Bubble is a day time smoke , long lasting & functional , smooth  , budding starts with a bubblegum smell

which is very nice but sadly mostly disappears to a sweet earthy smell , not very strong , same with taste

she's very nice but no books will be written about her , if looking for a wake N Bake strain , she's your gal   

 

 

GG Allin

Could have gone another week possibly but that good ol humidity looked like it was taking

My son has malignant nerve sheath tumors which there are many active with one going malignant. His condition is (was) described as terminal with metastasis to the pelvic area, neck and base of his skull, both legs and chest area

He has had radio therapy and supplements including RSO and CBD over the last 4 months. The main tumor has been smashed with metastasis gone. All the other tumors have stopped progressing. (these weren't radioed) and during the whole episode he needed no anti nausea medication, only 3 pain killers after a big operation to remove another malignant tumor from the same area which took the femoral nerve with it.

No nerve pain ...no inflammation or infections etc. 

He recovered so fast the medical profession are curious on what we have been doing so we told them everything which just generated blank face expressions except from one nurse who was really supportive  of us behind the others backs.

 

 

In short we won this battle and now its time to win the war. The objective is to continue to stop the rest of the tumors growing and hopefully shrink them. A long term protocol is what I am trying to work out for him now  

It seems that the RSO and CBD along with other supplements are making a difference which has improved his quality of life through this time. 

 

Cheers

Back in the day about 25 years ago 2 plants in a wheelie bin cut in 1/2.

Bag seed, back then we grew what ever seeds we got in good smoko.

Haha very good point recipes for slaves are probably not much use and not a bad thing but salve recipe well [emoji23], it's actually very easy

2 cups of coconut oil which you can buy at the supermarket or health food store, it's actually more like the inside of a bounty chocolate bar but turns to liquid when heated , use a spoon to scrape approximately 2 cups into a saucepan and put on a low heat, just under a boil like a simmer.

Add a Table spoon of vitamin E oil to the saucepan, I buy it online it's about $5 for 200ml

Add 2 cups of dried relatively chopped up flower, I have found the better the strain as in the higher THC content the more effective the salve is mind you this could just be my imagination as all version I have made have been beneficial.
I also decarboxylate my flower first before adding it to the saucepan as I make oil at the same time and it's just a habit I've gotten into.

Let the coconut oil, vitamin E oil and herb simmer on a low heat so it's just under boiling for about 4 hours, some people do this for as long as 24 hours which I have also done but I feel the difference in the infusion is minimal and 4 hours is fine. Give the mix a good stir every so often.
Be super carful to as the mixture drys fast when spilled and can make a bit of a mess if you not carful.

After the mix has been heated for about 4 hours and the cannabis has had time to infuse with the coconut oil use some cheese cloth or I can't remember the other name you can get it from material shops and pour the mixture through it into a bowl or something similar to filter out the herb so you are left with just a liquid. It's very important to wear gloves while doing this as it is upper hot.

Take another saucepan and add 3rd of a cup of beeswax which you can also get from a health food shop usually in little bits the size of mms or smarties and melt fairy easily over heat. Be cautious not to leave this over your stove for long as in take it off as soon as it is liquid as it can catch fire easily which I have also done.
Pour the melted beeswax into the other mix and stir together I usually tip the bowl of oil into the saucepan of beeswax and heat for another 2 minutes or so.

That's pretty much it, then you can pour into small containers, I use small plastic ones from the craft store, let it cool and your good to go.

I have heard of people running the finished cooled hardened mix through a blender then packaging it for use as it provides a different texture but I don't do this as I like the way it comes out, it's kind of like softish soap would be the best way to describe it and it melts with the body heat of your fingers. With this recipe I get about 7 small tubs which last for ages.

I have had beyond amazing results with this for my sons eczema and have also forwarded lots of it to friends and family with all kinds of skin issues who swear by it and I feel if you have those kinds of issues it's more than worth a go. My son no longer takes steroids for his skin. WIN
Please fell free to ask for further info if required and I will do my best To explain as the above probably makes no sense [emoji1303][emoji1303][emoji1303]

...there's no gold-standard research on whole-plant, so we can't comment on its potential...there just isn’t enough evidence...

 

It would be nice if they defined what they mean by 'gold-standard'. The lack of definition makes it hard for anyone to weigh up their claim and provide evidence to back up the argument that there are peer-reviewed scientific journal articles on whole Cannabis and that imo is the 'gold-standard'.

 

Our name is the National Cannabis Prevention and Information Centre. This is a legacy of a less confusing time when medical cannabis wasn’t under debate.

 

It was very much under debate then and previous to that time. This is an intentionally misleading statement.

 

We don’t have any influence over the law. None at all.

 

I would argue that your organisation (due to the political motivations behind its creation and the associated affiliations) is in a unique position to have influence over the law. That this influence is not enshrined in legislation is irrelevant.

 

We provide information and education, we analyse research

 

In a biased, non-scientific fashion.

 

the dosage can’t be controlled, contaminants are unknown and you can’t be sure how much THC and CBD is in what you’re taking.

 

This is due only to the laws in our country that prohibit the general public from utilising laboratories to test their Cannabis. This is of course at a detriment to the health of the public.

 

research is so important

 

I agree. There is a plethora of scientific research in the public domain that the NCPIC refuse to acknowledge because it does not agree with their dogma.

 

 

 

Nailed it!

There are false conjectures needlessly thrown around in this thread by unqualified people who do not receive medicinal cannabis from Don nor do they know anything about the way his products are produced or the results from patients using his products. 

actually I am quite qualified to speak in regards to scientific issues, including "chemistry" and 'compounding' - I have the education and experience to prove it... "the Don" has a finance background.

 

I have used screen shots from the don's own Facebook page to back up my points

I have met The Don, I was unimpressed, as were many people at the Tamworth symposium the Don did everything in his power to derail the symposium to meet his agenda (imo)

 

this is all I need to know about how "the Don" produces his products,these shots are from HIS Facebook page

 d4.JPG   78.36K   18 downloads  don2.JPG   109.14K   19 downloads

what self-respecting 'chemist' produces products on the floor (answer is NONE).
in medical settings, medications on the floor is a serious offence.

Looks like another medical cannabis scam is making the rounds on Facebook...

aka SCAMMER ALERT

 

“Don Medicinal Cannabis” is changing his spots and has begun to specialize in "Medical Cannabis Seeds". 

 

DO NOT trust Don Medicinal Cannabis nor Aussie Medicinal Seed Co... as they appear to be one in the same person/company.

 "the Don" has a reputation (on Facebook) for inferior products and not delivering what he promises (taking money and not sending products), he is in the medical canna business for money, zero compassion in his business plan.

 

 If by chance these two 'companies' are not both being run by "the Don", then Aussie Medicinal Seed Co is steeling photos, and that is crap/un-ethical business practice.

 

The post by Aussie Medicinal Seed Co has been taken down already, got to love a screen grab (however crappy it may be)!

 

Be smart peoples!

This strain is fucking brilliant and you all should most definitely run out and grab a prepaid credit card and buys yourself some!!!!!!!
 
 

Fast flowering indica/sativa hybrid, developed from a very stable sativa elite clone, pure and aromatic from the mountains of northern India, one of the primary centers of origin of the different varieties of cannabis.

These mountain sativas are compact and branched, Similar to the Indica, with hard and resinous buds, a good adaptation to cold. Flowering time of this mountin Sativas is much faster than most of the sativas.

We have crossed this North Indian sativa with one of our sweet and aromatic indica, getting a big vigor hybrid plant with high yield and psychoactive high. The aroma of this plant is sweet, fruity and spicy. On the palate the flavor is very intense and discovers citrus tones, fresh and anise.

During the flowering she produce very large and fully loaded buds with aromatic trichomes and shiny resin, having improved significantly with cross-pointing at the buds/leaf-ratio, flowering time, internodal distance and aroma.

Ganesh Spirit is a highly psychoactive plant, soft disruptive and well balanced; imaginative, lucid and relaxed at once.

40% Indica / 60% Sativa
Yield Indoor: 400-600 gr/m2
Yield Outdoor: 400-700 gr / plant
Flowering time Indoor: 8 weeks

THC: 18-20%; CBD: 0.8%; CBN: 0.4%
Sweet Seeds - Ganesh Spirit

 
 
Growing Ganesh Spirit well... it eats like an indica, branches like an indica, flowers like an indica, but damn, consume a little and you very quickly find out that it is not an indica. I have found it very good for managing pain, the high is both creative and motivated and I have no trouble getting through the tasks that must be performed and feel pretty good about along the way.
 
Through the vape the taste is close to divine, complex fruity flavour with an edge of licorice, even smoked the taste is something special.  It is very fast flowering but doesn't stretch very much, mine barely doubled in height during flower, so you might want to grow it to a larger size during veg than you would say for an indica dom skunk.
 
Some pics from the switch to 12/12 and the second month of flowering...

edit... added a couple of extra pics.
 
I harvested at 58 days of 12/12 due to logisitics, but having broken a branch at 45 days, I was by harvest quite aware that the buds were strong enough for my purposes.
 
I have one plant revegging as I type and I expect this strain to feature in my garden for some time to come.
 
So yeah, go get some, and thanks Sweet for making some mountain genetics available... I'm going to refill the vape again...

He wouldn't be hard to track down at all. You already have his name and home town.

 

The truth is there are hundreds of people out there in the same position as Dan Haslan desperate for help and access to cannabis oil before their cancers kill them. I have hundreds of emails from people asking for help on where they can legally obtain cannabis oil, all of which I cannot help or direct anyone else to due to the stupid arcane profit orientated cannabis laws we live under... How ridiculous it is that a plant like cannabis is illegal which regardless of what some ignorant people believe is full of goodness for us both externally and internally.

 

The biggest tragedy in this story in my opinion is the fact that it had to affect their family and friends personally before adjusting their attitude towards cannabis, as I'm sure his father has raided and locked up plenty of cannabis growers some of which could well still be in gaol...

Hello to the OzStoners community - here's an introduction to the latest GDS 2014, which has a focus on cannabis this year.

 

Drugs are a funny thing. Lots of people take them, lots of people talk about them – often not knowing much at all about what they are talking about. The media sometimes does a fantastic reporting on drug issues, other times it’s just not useful or accurate. Sometimes it’s just plain rubbish. Researchers do some interesting stuff but most of it‘s focused on the harm that drugs cause – not the pleasure they can bring to people’s lives. Global Drug Survey hopes to change that.

Collaborating with over 20 media partners and host of researchers and harm reduction networks across the world, translated into 10 languages and running with hubs in 17 countries we are about to under take the biggest survey of everyday drug use (inducing alcohol, tobacco and of course prescription medication – they are drugs to!) that the world, has ever seen.

From what would be the perfect cannabis and life after the Silk Road, to what happened when you’re caught with drugs or being drug-tested in work place; from nitrous oxide balloons and ecstasy pill testing to value for money and finding out what people do to keep themselves safe while high – this is going to be huge and relevant for people who use drugs, who drink, drop, get high, get low, gets scripts, grow their own or are just curious about the world around them.

If you are interested in drugs help us get the best information out to everyone. Our results will be published exclusively with our global media partners in March and April 2014.

Take part in Global Drug Survey 2014 at http://www.globaldru...vey.com/GDS2014

Everything is anonymous and confidential.

(GDS is headed up by Dr Adam Winstock, email adam@globaldrugsurvey.com. The survey has ethics approval. N.B. I have had a role in designing parts of the survey!)

 

AND in relation to your favourite plant: Here's what GDS is asking about it -

 

What we will ask
Cannabis remains the most commonly used illicit drug in the world and the first to have its growing to be industrialized in every country - it's probably the most profitable drug in the world. With the dominance of high potency strains, there has been little assessment of whether what people are offered is really what they want to use. Work done by GDS2013 identified high potency herbal strains as being the most popular, the most available and giving the best high but also the type most associated with memory problems and paranoia. GDS2014 is asking the consumer to rank different forms of cannabis on potency and preference and describe the perfect cannabis high and how this compares to what they experience with their currently used preparations. We will also identify how cannabis users go about trying to reduce their risks of harm and how many use it for medical reasons. We will also compare how many of them end up seeking emergency medical treatment each year (and why) compared to those who have used synthetic cannabis products which GDS2013 identified as being associated with a wide range of unwanted effects.

Why this is important – We hope to challenge the dominance of the high potency market based on consumer feedback and provide cannabis users with the best harm reduction advice based on the experience of 10s of thousands of users across the world.
 

I thought contributors to this part of OZStoners would be very interested in this inquiry. Here is a quote from NSW parliament media release:

On 22 November 2012, the NSW Legislative Council referred an Inquiry into the medical use of cannabis to General Purpose Standing Committee No. 4. The Committee, chaired by the Hon Sarah Mitchell MLC of The Nationals, includes representatives of the Australian Labor Party, the Greens and the Liberal Party.

The motion to refer the Inquiry to General Purpose Standing Committee No. 4 was put forward by Labor member the Hon Luke Foley MLC, and was agreed to without opposition from Council members.

The Committee Chair, Mrs Mitchell said, 'The Committee will be examining the safety and efficacy of cannabis for medical purposes as well as considering if and how cannabis should be supplied for medical use. In addition, the Inquiry will investigate the legal implications of cannabis use for medical purposes, as well as any other related issues.'

'There is a diverse collection of views held on this issue by the community, and the Committee wishes to hear from the widest possible range of stakeholders.'

Submissions are now being called for by the Committee from interested organisations and individuals. The closing date for submissions in Friday 15 February 2013.

The Committee will to hold two Sydney hearings, in March 2013. Detailed information about the dates and times of these hearings will be advertised on the Committee website following the closing date for submissions. The Committee is scheduled to report to the House by 14 May 2013.

For further information about the Inquiry, including its terms of reference, and for more on how to make a submission, please visit the Committee's website at: www.parliament.nsw.gov.au/gpsc4, or call the Committee Secretariat on (02) 9230 3081

Click here to lodge your submission - before 15 Feb 2013!

And if you haven't already, you can also complete our anonymous study of Australian cannabis growers. We will be using this information to make an official submission to the inquiry so this is another way you can have your voice heard.

Hi All,
So on the advice of others I've used some of my find to make tincture or green dragon. Now, I had a look around and found a few recipes. Some say cook it, others say don't. Some say use coffee filters, others say don't. Some say leave it to steep for 3-4 weeks, some say heat it. Well I need this quickly, so I took a bit of all the info I found and did this.

I took 1 oz of head and using a coffee grinder made it a powder.
 Tinture 001.JPG   124.23K   86 downloads  Tinture 004.JPG   139.8K   75 downloads

I placed it on a foil lined baking tray and cooked it at 130C for 15min in the oven. This process releases the right cannabanoids for the alcohol to absorb
 Tinture 009.JPG   160.08K   69 downloads

I sterlized some jars with boiling hot water(notice the spoon in each jar, according to the wife this stops the jars shattering with the hot water) Then dried them in the WARM oven
 Tinture 012.JPG   133.96K   65 downloads

I distributed the baked pot into two jars. I could have used one jar but wanted the entire mix under the level of the water in my saucepan (see below)
 Tinture 015.JPG   94.82K   64 downloads

Taking one cup of OP rum (57.7% alcohol or 115 proof) I covered the pot with the rum
 Tinture 014.JPG   89.86K   64 downloads  Tinture 016.JPG   108.79K   67 downloads

I heated a saucepan of water to about 40C then placed my jars in the water. Some say to use a wire rack at the bottom of the saucepan, but my wire rack was too big, so again on the Mrs' advise, I placed a tea towel in the bottom so the glass jars weren't drawing the heat directly from the base of the saucepan. Notice the level of the alcohol and pot mix is below the water level
 Tinture 018.JPG   109.01K   72 downloads

Now the alcohol evaporates at 75C. So using a candy thermometer I kept it below 75. The recommendations are 65-75C. I kept mine at 70ish for about 35-40 minutes.

Then came the straining. One video I watched used coffee filters but when you go to squeeze them out they rip contaminating the product. So I went to the fabric shop and bought some muslin cloth or cheese cloth. And fitted it to the top of the final jar. DO NOT FORGET THE RUBBER BAND, unless you have two pair of hands as it makes one hell of a mess if the cloth comes free from the jar. DOH.
 Tinture 019.JPG   88.91K   71 downloads

Due to the fabric of the cloth you can squeeze the hell out of it and get the maximum out, Coffee fiters rip.
 Tinture 021.JPG   112.9K   66 downloads

After doing all of this, there was a little still in the cheese cloth so I squeezed it direct into my mouth. The taste ain't great but being rum it helps, but shit am I bent.

I will be offline for a bit come Wednesday and I won't be able to smoke, until I get back home, but the mrs can bring me in daily doses of green/brown almost black dragon and I won't need any pharma from the Drs.

Merl1n
P.S. Next comes some hash oil (I hope)

Gazza please dont take wrong way, you are dropping all this coin for very little return.

 

You want bang for ya $ and i get that we all do.

 

My advice would be forget about all this that and the other and go back to basic.

 

If you have the genetics all the addives are not needed,good air flow good light and feeding is all that is needed and the plants will do there thing.

 

Before all this fancy stuff came on the market ppl where doing very well with the basics to use for growing.

 

For the most part IMO all the extras that are on the market are just a money spinner, just my 2 bob worth...

Could we please have a sub forum for organics? We can talk shop there and not have to sift through the rest of the forums for topics. It would be easier for people to learn about it that way also.

High Times Cannabis Cup...

 

Where to start mate.

 

Well, firstly, I have grown several different Cannabis Cup winning strains over the last couple of years,

using a couple different hydro methods. One was an abomination, some others decent quality bud, but not what I would expect

from a HTCC winner, not close. I have also grown other non HTCC winning strains during the same grows and in others and most of them have been much better, including a random bag seed. 

I got some Super Silver Haze and White Russian last year, with it a bunch of free 'Delicious' seeds.

I'm growing the delicious seeds again this year and dropping the others because of both yield and overall quality. 

 

Now that's just growing HTCC winning strains, 

mate, I've been to the HTCC in Holland.

Nothing to see here, was an overpriced money sucker by High Times.

 

The coffee shops themselves were amazing, but the shops that had a chance of winning,

and the winner that year were giving everyone really good deals.

Like the kind of deal for weed and hash that you either lose or make no money from.

They win because they almost paid to win through a range of different promotional means,

not because they had the best weed this year. This industry is a massive global business,

yes people will spend a lot of money to make sure you smoking up their bud. 

 

 

So I respect that your trying to have a bit of fun here with the whole HTCC thing,

but you also are naive to the fact that most people don't care.

 

I too, alike you used to think these award winning strains were the holy grail of cannabis,

but through time and my own life experiences, I found that not to be so. 

 

I can't say I have grown them all, or that I grow the best bud.

But I have been all around the world including Colorado, BC, Spain, England and Holland and smoked some of the best bud,

and the best bud didn't have a cup associated with it. 

 

Good luck with it though, I'm sure you will crop some nice tasty heads that would 

be 1000 times better than the shit you get from Joe Blogs.
