I have two buddies that grew their own last year. Good learning curve with Youtude via on-line seed delivery. This isn't a "you should" or "you shouldn't" more if you do what's working, cultivation, show and tell etc.

Adults over the age of 21 in Ohio may cultivate up to 6 cannabis plants at the individual's “primary residence,” with a total limit of 12 plants per household


 
If you can grow a tomato you can grow weed. If you can get clones it is better than seeds. At least that was the case back in college. Nowadays I hear things about feminized seeds but I don’t know how that works.

I’m going back to the my youth this year and grow some.
 
Could make for a interesting what's in your garden thread this year. Still illegal at the federal level so can't get to crazy. Especially with hunting and firearms involved. It's like you have to pick one or the other. Once the 4473 form gets changed then the gloves are off or garden gloves on lol.
 
If you do it indoors, you don't have to worry about the deer eating it. Plus you can grow it during the winter.

Indoor hydro from clones seems to do good for me.

I’ve been playing around with different extraction methods and found that starting with high-quality flower makes a big difference. If you're going to try any oil processing or even just want something to blend into tinctures, using bulk cbd distillate can save a ton of time and still give solid end results. Makes experimenting with mixing ratios way easier too.

Have you found a way or process to concentrate of any of the turpentines?

TURPENTINES-
  • Beta-Caryophyllene: This terpene is unique because it directly interacts with the body's endocannabinoid system, specifically activating CB2 receptors, which play a role in regulating inflammation. Studies have shown its effectiveness in reducing pro-inflammatory mediators and ameliorating conditions like arthritis and colitis.
  • Myrcene: The most common terpene found in cannabis, myrcene has demonstrated potent anti-inflammatory effects in studies by inhibiting the production of certain inflammatory markers in the body. It may also contribute to the "entourage effect", potentially enhancing the anti-inflammatory properties of cannabinoids like THC.
  • Alpha-Pinene: This terpene, known for its piney aroma, exhibits anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting key enzymes like COX-1 and signaling pathways involved in the inflammatory response. It has also shown promise in reducing inflammation associated with conditions like arthritis.
  • Humulene: Also known as alpha-caryophyllene, this terpene boasts potent anti-inflammatory properties, with some researchers comparing its effectiveness to dexamethasone, a powerful anti-inflammatory drug.
  • Limonene: This citrusy terpene not only elevates mood but also fights inflammation by regulating the immune system and suppressing the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines.
  • Linalool: With its calming and anxiolytic effects, linalool also possesses anti-inflammatory properties and has shown promise in treating inflammatory joint diseases like arthritis. It can be found in lavender essential oil and may help soothe inflamed skin.

I've been trying to get/make/find edibles that have high concentrations of any of these turpentines and low or no THC, ( psychoactive) the CBG in the 30mg range has kept me from having a disabling Spine event that was occurring every couple months. (Degenerative Disk Disease, etc in all three area of the Spine - cervical, thoracic and lumbar)

CBG can:

  • Reduce the production of inflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and interleukin-6 (IL-6)

  • Inhibit the activation of immune cells that contribute to inflammation

  • Protect cells from oxidative stress, which can trigger inflammation
    • Reduce pain and swelling associated with inflammation
