Woah, hey, wait a minute now...

This conspiracy stuff is all fun and games until someone loses a famileye and I didn't read anything about death-from-above in "Nineteen Eighty-Four"!!!

Then again, I'm Canadian so I can breathe easy. Americans wouldn't drone people in other nations, would they?

Not if they're in artillery range. Although then there wouldn't be video.

I have the impression most Canadians are just-over-the-border Canadians, although that may be because the northern leafs can't type with their frozen fingers. I used to live in northern Wisconsin, and sympathize with your plight. It was in the 60s and sunny today on the beach. :)

I can see Belle Isle from my window, north, across the Detroit River, from Windsor.

In highschool it was common knowledge that 90% of Canadians live within 100km of the US border. I bet it's higher now.

Northern Wisconsin be cold as fuck, but not as much as Fernie BC where I lived a bit.

Rec Beach?

Fernie BC

Wow, 5 cannabis stores now. It's also 5°F at 7:51 PM.

-20F is about the coldest I remember, and that is about 60°F colder than it normally gets here. But it was cool as a kid to look down through about 10 or 20 feet of ice on the lake and see frozen bubbles waaaay down there.

Haven't been there in 10 years. Lived there for a bit 29 years ago. Doesn't surprise me.

There's an over-priced over-government-regulated cannabis store right around the corner from me, here in Windsor Ontario, at Pillette & Wyandotte.

I only tried 5 cannabis beverages. Weak and overpriced. Either they need to be MUCH cheaper or more potent to ever get me back there. Plus I don't trust government GMO weed.

It's pretty easy to grow, if you can do that. They even have 2'x2' grow tent kits now, if you're tight on space. Given that it's only 15F there, a hot HPS bulb instead of LEDs could help with your heat.

After they legalized stores, they added a ton of taxes and regulations here to reinvigorate the black market. Or at least that was the effect.

I grew 25+ plants in 1993 at college in Oakville, near Toronto. Half were transported and planted in Muskoka, soon many were invisible in my Uncle's green forest, never to be found.

I grew a couple in Oakland, California, made butter and gave it a way. Never did even try it.

This month I aim to germinate or find clones for a bunch with aims of planting 25 in the back yard (5 are allowed for the 5 tenants here) and giving away the ones we don't keep. I'll also post a sign that asks people not to take any, but feel free to ask for clones and/or come back later after the harvest for proper free kind bud.

I'm converting half my basement into a year-round food garden. Maybe some weed on the side over the winter. In time I want to set up aquaponics and beer/whisky/wine stills. Maybe make some pot-brew of some kind too.

I wish ketamine grew on trees.

In 1993 I grew 'a few'. Man, those were the days.

Be sure to look for specific strains, or a variety you select for their characteristics. If you could do 25 different strains, you'd be that much more likely to find a few you absolutely love.

beer/whisky/wine stills

How hard and/or expensive is that? I've been trying to do more of my own stuff. Roasting my own coffee and making some fermented foods. Wine making would be nice to know how to do.

WOW!

I don't know what 6 inch centers are.

I also helped some friends produce and sell "medical" MJ in SF. Beyond that I'm no green thumb, and even if I don't smoke much I like to rebel. My Riverside High School mascot was a Rebel too.

I don't do coffee, but a friend in town here recently sold his "I Luv Coffee" store, but continues with his products for markets. I could reach out if you're really keen.

Ask /u/AmericanMuskrat about fermenting. I know nothing about it - yet.

6 inch centers is 4 plants per square foot. 64 plants under a 1000W HPS in a 4'x4'. Trim all the side branches, and you end up with a single bud on a stick. Relatively easy trim. You get more of what you want, and less of the marginal stuff. Very much depends on the strain, though.

I don't do coffee

What do you think of kratom? About a half tablespoon of the powder (ground up leaves from the tree) is like a good shot of caffeine without any negatives I've noticed.

How hard and/or expensive is that? I've been trying to do more of my own stuff. I grew a few plants out back last summer. CA fires dropped a ton of ash on them. :( Hardly use any now though. Also roasting my own coffee ($20 to get started) and making some fermented foods. Making my own alcohol would be nice to know how to do.

Making wine/cider is easy. It's just juice, yeast, and optionally added sugar to pump up the abv. Then you either "burp" your container periodically or use an airlock, which can be improvised. It takes 2 weeks to 3 months for the ferment depending on the abv you're going for, higher abv (more sugar, see Brix value) takes longer. The cost of the alcohol is dependent on how cheaply you can get juice and sugar.

Even fruit scraps can work, I'm making tepache right now, which is a kind of Mexican pineapple ginger beer using the leftover pineapple rind.

Beer I haven't done. It seems harder, you have to make a wort with hops and grains and whatnot, and generally they force carbonate.

Haven't distilled anything either, I don't have land to do that on safely. A few hundred bucks can buy a cheap still online or if you're handy, they don't seem too tricky to build. If I want to concentrate I do something called freeze distillation, or freeze jacking. It uses the fact that water freezes more readily than alcohol to concentrate booze. It's generally illegal in the US though.

The wine sounds a lot like my kvass. I have a gallon jar on top of my fridge I've been making kvass in for awhile. Hulled oats, a lemon slice or two, and sugar. A bit of yeast is optional. Can be ready in a few days, or a few weeks for stronger. Lid just sits on top to keep the dust out.

Do you have a particular link for the wine making? Or I could search.

I suppose the still is too complicated and risky for my small place. Plus, instacart just delivered this a little while ago for cheap. Kirkland Signature Blended Scotch Whisky Scotland, 1.75 L $20.39

But the wine and variants sounds fun.
