MARIJUANA CRITIC
MARIJUANA CRITIC HAS CHANGED OVER THE YEARS FROM THE RATING OF MARIJUANA STRAINS AND THE CRITICISM OF BOGUS CLAIMS AND RECIPIES AND ANALYSIS PROCEDURES. NOW I FIND MYSELF WRITING ABOUT PERIPHERAL ASPECTS OF MARIJUANA CULTURE AND USE AND ABOUT MY OWN GROWN AND ABOUT THE PRODUCTS WHICH HAVE REFINED AND DIVERSIFIED MARIJUANA CONSUMPTION

I learned to produce hashish and squeeze and edible marijuana infused in coconut oil while preserving the large buds for the majority of cannabis consumers scissoring, rolling and reefering.

GREGARIOUS BY NATURE I SOUGHT TO CREATE A PUBLIC HOUSE
The Air Force Officer's Club had eleven rooms to rent out, a lounge, a dining room and a cafeteria/dance hall. Fredericton was a University town and there would be a University Student population to entertain at the freestanding two story building at the University of New Brunswick side of downtown Fredericton New Brunswick. My mother took the money saying that I was under her authority and she was not giving me the money. Grandfather Collard's gift to his grandson turned into a punishment instead, a ten thousand dollar fine for my eighteenth birthday. MOTHER SEIZED IT.
I learned how to make hashish, I built my own rotary screening machine, I have a unique pressing procedure which produces remarkably good hash. I had three tokes in a self designed and built Asylum Racer. There are posts about the Asylum Racer in blog posts.
The unfortunate actual resulting cannabis regulations do not allow the social club type of cannabis use I had learned how to make products for.
MARIJUANA HAS BEEN LEGALIZED IN CANADA NOT AT PUBLIC HOUSES BUT IN CRATES, BOXES AND BOTTLES.
It is almost the life long mental cases creation, "the opposite of what you want". Seventy grams of plastic were reported packaging two x two grams of pot.
The over packaging is not what most marijuana consumers believe in doing. The rigorous over regulation will not let Marijuana Consumption be a part of public socialization where people meet new people and ideas. Live entertainment will probably not be part of Marijuana Legalization as well.
I had imagined the growing, processing and retail sale and on-site consumption would be vertically integrated and the product quality would thus be controlled. That would be similar to the structure of small Brew Pubs and Wineries.
I had envisioned a public consumption of Marijuana like alcohol was once consumed in bars and clubs and still is in some situations, and like coffee houses of the past or they may be thriving in some locales, or like Les Club des Hashischiens in Paris France in the Eighteen Hundreds.

HIGH POTENCY MARIJUANA PRODUCTS ARE EFFECTIVE WHILE SMOKING OR VAPORIZING LESS.
THERE IS A NEGATIVE REACTION TO HIGH POTENCY MARIJUANA PRODUCTS WHICH IS UNWARRANTED. AS MARIJUANA BECAME MORE POTENT LATER IN THE 1970'S, THE OVERSIZE CIGARS WERE REPLACED BY SMALL JOINTS AND PIPES.
I MADE THOSE WATER PIPES AND NOW I MAKE SQUEEZE, HEATED PRESSED OUT GLANS HEADS, OFTEN CALLED ROSIN.
I CAN VAPORIZE A GRAIN OF RICE SIZED BLOB OF SQUEEZE, THREE TOKES WITH THE FIRST ONE THE BEST, AND THAT IS ALL I NEED.
COMPARE THE NON COMBUSTIVE THREE TOKE VAPORIZATION WITH THE TWENTY OR THIRTY LUNG FULLS OF SMOKE INHALED FROM THE MARIJUANA JOINT.
I USE A CARDBOARD TUBE RIGHT ON TOP OF MY ARIZER EXTREME Q WITH MY "EXTRUDO" IN IT.
THE EXTREME Q HOT AIR VAPORIZER NEVER DELIVERED A HEAVY TOKE.
WHEN THE PARCHMENT PAPER SPLITS WHILE IT IS BEING PRESSED, MARIJUANA IT IS FILLED WITH WILL EXTRUDE AND UNFORTUNATELY IT WILL ABSORB YOUR ROSIN OR SQUEEZE. THAT IS SQUASH.
THE STICKY PARTS CAN BE SMOKED IN A WATER PIPE JUST LIKE BUD, BUT YOU LIGHT IT UP LIGHTLY AND INHALE.
THIS IS WHERE THE EXTREME Q VAPORIZER COMES IN AT 245* IT DELIVERS ABSOLUTELY SMASHING TOKES WITH AN F2 FAN SETTING.

STATISTICS REGARDING MY EX-WIFE'S JEOPARDY WHICH SHE CREATED FOR ME WHICH WAS TERRIFYING AND WHICH PREVENTED MY HAVING ANYONE HOUSE SIT FOR ME SO I COULD TRAVEL TO PURSUE MY ART, WRITING AND MUSIC.
I WAS SHOCKED WHEN MY BROTHER TOLD ME AT CHOCOLATE&VANILLA, THAT I WAS NOT TO BE CREDITED WITH ANY PAYMENTS I MADE ON MY WIFE'S DEBT BUT "MOTHER HAS DECIDED" ANDREW SAID "YOU ARE GOING TO PAY THE HIGHEST RATE WHICH SHE GETS FROM ANY OF HER INVESTMENTS" IN CASH UNDER THE TABLE. THE MONEY WAS NOT HERS, IT WAS MINE FROM THE GRANDPA COLLARD TRUST FUND AND ALL OF THE ACCUMULATED INTEREST FOR 20 YEARS. "YOU ARE NOT GOING TO GET ANY MORE MONEY" HE SAID. HE KNEW I HAD GROWN MYSELF NEARLY A POUND OF MARIJUANA AS THAT WAS THE ONLY WAY I WAS GOING TO GET MYSELF ANYTHING TO SMOKE. I HAD TO SELL MY STASH TO PAY RENT ON MY WIFE'S BUSINESS AND MY FIRST PAYMENT OF THE INTEREST I HAD TO PAY ALTHOUGH I REFUSED TO PAY INTEREST SAYING THAT I WAS ONLY GOING TO PAY THE PRINCIPLE BACK EVEN THOUGH IT WAS MY MONEY FROM MY TRUST FUND.
FAST FORWARD TO WHERE C&V WENT OUT OF BUSINESS IN 1986 AND THEN FOUR MONTHS LATER I WAS CRASHED INTO IN MY CAR BY MR. INGRAM AND I WENT INTO A STATE OF FUGUE.
I WAS BEING EXTORTED. I HAD TO PAY MOTHER $475 PER MONTH AND BETTY MY WIFE $1000. FOR HER BECAUSE I WOULD NOT "LET" HER GO ON WELFARE. SHE PAID NO EXPENSES AND I HAD TO BUY MYSELF ANY FOOD I WANTED AND TO PREPARE IT MYSELF.
IN 1990 TRIXIE DASHEVSKY (HER REAL NAME) TOOK ALL OF OUR MEAGER POSSESSIONS AND SHE WENT FROM DOOR TO DOOR AND STORE TO STORE AND TOLD THEM AND THE POLICE THAT I WAS VIOLENT AND AGGRESSIVE AND I HATED POLICE, LAWYERS AND WOMEN.
I STILL HAD TO COME UP WITH ABOUT $1800 PER MONTH FOR THE EX-WIFE AND MY MOTHER AND A SMALL PAYMENT TO EACH OF MY CHILDREN. THEY HAD CRIED ON THE PHONE FOR SHOES AND FEES AND SPENDING MONEY WHICH MY EX DID NOT SUPPLY. THIS WAS REALLY TOUGH, AFTER PROPERTY TAXES AND INSURANCE PAYMENTS AND EMPLOYEES WAGES I HAD JUST MY LIMITED BASIC GROCERY MONEY.
THIS MEANT THAT MY EMPLOYEE AND I HAD TO TRIM MARIJUANA 4 TO SIX DAYS EVERY FIVE WEEKS. "I TOLD THE NEIGHBORS TO CALL THE COPS ON YOU ANY TIME THEY COULD" SHE SAID, PROBABLY TRYING TO SCARE ME OFF OF MY PROPERTY.
HERE ARE THE NIGHTMARE STATISTICS:
THE PROBABILITY OF GETTING BUSTED TRIMMING WAS THAT 18% OF THE TIME THAT THE POLICE CAME HERE WE WOULD BE TRIMMING AND WE WOULD BE VULNERABLE TO ARREST AND SEIZURE OF MY PROPERTY AND THE DEPORTATION OF MY BRITISH WORKER.
THE POLICE DID COME DURING TRIM JOBS BUT THOSE TIMES THEY DID NOT GET TO CHARGE INTO THE HOUSE.
THE OTHER TERRIBLE THING THE COP CALLING AND MY EX-WIFE TALKING ABOUT ME, INCLUDING THAT I HAD MONEY AND I DID NOT, CAUSED WAS THAT IN ADDITION TO WORKING UP TO 70 HOURS PER WEEK FOR JUST GROCERIES I WAS ALSO THE ONE AND ONLY AND ALWAYS SECURITY GUARD WHO COULD NOT CALL THE POLICE FOR ASSISTANCE.

WITH THE COLLECTION AND VAPORIZATION OF SQUEEZE AND THE VAPORIZING OF THE BLOW OUTS OF MARIJUANA AND ROSIN, THE "EXTRUDO", THERE IS NEAR TO 100% UTILIZATION OF THE BUDS USING ONLY HEAT AND PRESSURE.
SUNDAY 19 FEBRUARY 2023
THE USE OF ALL OF THE FLOWER FROM MARIJUANA SAVES LABOR AND THE USE OF RESOURCES
YOU MIGHT BE SURPRISED AT HOW MUCH LABOR IS REQUIRED TO GROW EACH FOUR PLANT MARIJUANA CROP AND THEN TO DRY DE-LEAF AND PROCESS IT.
PROCESSING EVERY BIT OF GLANS HEAD BEARING BUD AND SUGAR LEAF CAN CREATE NEW, INTERESTING AND EFFECTIVE CANNABIS PRODUCTS.
MY FAVORITE, AND THE MOST ELEGANT AND ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY CANNABIS EXTRACT IS THE HEAT AND PRESSURE EXTRACTED SQUEEZE.
I JUST DISCOVERED THIS PROCESS.
WHEN THE PARCHMENT PAPER SPLITS AND SOME OF THE MARIJUANA IS EXTRUDED THERE CAN BE A BIG BLOB OF SQUEEZE ROSIN ABSORBED IN THE MARIJUANA. CLOSELY INSPECT THE EXTRUSIONS AND IF THERE IS A WHOLE LOT OF STICKY GOOP IN SOME OF THE "EXTRUDO". I HAD SMOKED IT IN THE PAST BUT NOW THE USE OF AN EXTREME Q VAPORIZER AT 245*C, A QUARTER FULL STANDARD INSERT, F1 AND A BONG TYPE TUBE TO INHALE THROUGH PROSUCE THE BEST TOKES I HAVE EVER HAD, WITHOUT TAR OR A STINK IN THE ROOM.
WEDNESDAY 18 OCTOBER 2023
A 100% COMPLETE USE OF MARIJUANA BUDS
SMOKING IS UNHEALTHY. THE VAPORIZATION OF SQUEEZE IS THE HEALTHY ALTERNATIVE.
*FOOTNOTE ABOUT HOW TO SQUEEZE.
ALUMINUM PLATED ARE HEATED TO A TEMPERATURE AS HIGH AS 390 * F.
CAREFULLY WRAP MOISTENED IN A DOUBLED FIVE INCH WIDE STRIP OF PARCHMENT PAPER AND PLACE BETWEEN THE HEATED PLATES AND SLOWLY APPLY PRESSURE ON THE PLATES WITH A PRESS OR A JACK OR ANYTHING. MORE PRESSURE, BETTER PRODUCTION.
A COMPLICATION WITH COLLECTING ALL OF THE SQUEEZE IS POSED BY BLOW OUT EXTRUSIONS OF THE MARIJUANA WHICH IS BEING PRESSED INSIDE THE FOLDED PARCHMENT PAPER. ROSIN WILL SATURATE SOME OF THE EXTRUSIONS.
THE METHOD OF RECLAIMING AND CONSUMING THE ROSIN OR SQUEEZE IS TO COLLECT THE STICKY PART OF THE INADVERTENTLY EXTRUDED MARIJUANA AND PLACE IT IN A PARCHMENT LINED TIN. I USE AN ARISER EXTREME Q TO VAPORIZE A HALF A TEASPOON AT A TIME OF THE ROSIN SATURATED EXTRUSION.
ANY HOT AIR (245*C) GENERATING VAPORIZER COULD BE USED.
THE TASTE IS TRULY EXTRAORDINARY.
YOU CAN FEEL THE POST VAPORIZATION REMAINS TO SEE IF ANY STICKY PARTS HAVE NOT BEEN VAPORIZED.

SQUEEZE
ART OR ARTIFICE: BACK TO THE ANCIENT MONO-BLOCK SYSTEM CHARACTERIZED BY STATIC DESIGN
Heat any metal or what? blocks in any oven or on a wood stove or in a Parabolic Sun Reflector or Refractor Lens. Before the Barbarian horde burnt my house at Otter Point I had a large collection of Fresnel lenses for projection and light show machines. I used to demonstrate Solar Cooking with the Fresnel lenses as well. You can also use a Stack of the lenses to focus a white hot spot.
Heat what thick heat retaining plates you have up to a temperature which you know will warm a Cigar of Bud til the steam hisses from the three drops of water you put in. Wrap the Parchment at the last minute so the moisture does not weaken the paper. Double and roll and twist the Parchment paper to create a strong wrap and direct the Rosin the right way and put it in an additional sleeve of Parchment Paper because a really good squeeze might squirt out.
Any press will do, although I like about 5 Tons, 2 1/2 Tons works which is what car jacks and bottle jacks deliver when they are caged. I believe it works to put weight on the plates any way at all.
I like a very large glass rod with a rounded right angle bend in it. But when it is possible to lift large amounts of the squeezed out melted glans heads with a RAZOR BLADE IS WHICH VERY GOOD, a flat angle and delicacy required.
CONSUMPTION
It is possible that I do put more effort into experimentation and documentation.
in 1970 or thereabouts I had a vaporizer made from, you could still do it, a model railroad rheostat and transformer and an automotive cigarette lighter.
Had I known about squeezing, the vaporizer and the Squish would have been really great. All of the technology was available unlike today's other products.
I thought the pot did not burn and I thought it had to, I am smarter than that now but it is too bad, it would have been really fine to market the first vaporizers. Oh Oh, when they made producing smoking pipes etc for marijuana illegal, considered it to be trafficking drugs, that might not have ended well.
CONSUMPTION
CONSUMPTION
THE GLASS ROD I USE TO ROLL OFF SQUEEZE IS PICTURED ABOVE On the tray as well there is a 1976 Asylum Racer "S" fitted with a Brindle Farms electric vaporizer. The Rosin Dabbers are Nut Picks with rubber grips.
PRODUCTION
Stronger Parchment Paper or a different stronger substitute for paper would be good and it might well exist already, I will research that. I might hypothesise that some sort of press and heated plates with steam injection would be good.
I HAVE AN ACCURATE PROBE THERMOMETER, A MEAT ROASTER PROBE, BUT WITHOUT A PID THE BLOCKS INSIDE A THERMAL READER WOULD WORK WELL. I DID NOT NEED MY PID AND HEATER RODS ONE OF WHICH WAS FAULTY, THE OUTER WRAP INCOMPLETE AND IT BROKE.
THERE WILL BE A PLETHORA OF PICTURES TO VIEW OF THE ART OF SQUEEZE ON THE NET I AM SURE.

SUPERHEATED STEAM SQUEEZE
INTERESTING DEVELOPMENTS IN SQUEEZING ROSIN
HERE WE GO THIS IS HOW YOU Do SQUEEZE
ORDINARY BOTTLE JACKS PRODUCE 2 1/2 TONS PRESSURE. GET ONE AND FIND A WAY TO CAGE IT, OR PLACE IT BETWEEN AN OVERHANG AND THE GROUND OR UNDER A CAR BUMPER, ANYTHING TO HAVE THE JACK PRESS YOUR HEATED PLATES TOGETHER. PARCHMENT PAPER IS CHEAP AND AVAILABLE.
Do not forget that the "pencil" is first rolled in scrap paper with water drops. DOUBLE YOUR STRIP OF PARCHMENT PAPER, FOLDING A FULL WIDTH STRIP WHICH IS WIDE ENOUGH TO EASILY WRAP THE POT.
THIS IS HOW YOU DO IT STEAM SQUEEZE
Fold it and roll it and fold in the ends and roll some more, all very tightly at the last minute before squeezing. Before that the process below is conducted.
The charge will have been placed in an old used bit of parchment paper with a drop of water every inch or so and rolled ever so tightly, even rolled in an additional strip. Keep the pressure on it by placing something to weigh it down and squash it a bit.
HEAT THE PLATES IN A TOASTER OVEN, ON A WOOD STOVE, or WITH a PID. A VALUABLE TOOL IS A PROBE TYPE OVEN OR ROAST THERMOMETER
When your plates of any material, there are optimum materials, are at 390* F. wearing gloves and using extra cloths get the pencil freshly rolled into the doubled folded parchment paper and close the gap so the charge heats up. You should hear and possibly see, steam, after a minute start to press. If Pot comes squeezing out, (Dealing with this extrusion is the subject of this post. go to the start), fold better or use less pressure. It is best to get up to 2 1/2 Tons. It can be common for Pot to blast out or flow out keep it away from the Squeeze if possible. Pot mixed with Rosin can be resqueezed.
Use lots of parchment paper if possible to fold a second covering over the pencil in its folded paper. Lay a sheet of Parchment paper under where you squish. I find that some of the Rosin can squirt out as a spray, look for and harvest it.
NEW PRODUCT NEVER SEEN BEFORE, EXPECTORANT
WHEN SUPERHEATED STEAM BLASTED OUT OF THE PRESS WITH A SPRAY OF ROSIN IN IT IT CARRIED SOME KIFF LIKE FINE PARTICULATE MATTER WITH IT
NEVER SAW THAT STUFF BEFORE, IT WAS TASTY AND EFFECTIVE WHEN I PUT IT IN AN ASYLUM RACER AND SMOKED IT LIKE IT WAS HASHISH.
Postscript: The Expectorant has too much fibre in it to smoke. Some of the very gooey bits can be vaporized however. If it is very gooey there is squeeze in it.
