:thank you:
I am pretty much on the same page as Krunch on this one :yes:



I have heard this more than few times, no one ever shows a picture though.
And i have also tried it myself just to see. It did not work for me.
Sooooo, until i see a picture i will not believe it :tiphat:
Well I wasn't talkin about coloring. I was talkin about smell ,taste and such. Have you tried that??? If so,I honestly want to know before I try this.

before I retire to bed,I would like to point out this. The ONLY people saying it won't work....are people who have never tried it. Take your head out of your ass ....you need to take a breath.Don't just say something won't work just to say it. Back up your doubt with reasons why.:thank you:

I also think it wont work but if your interested in changing what you cannabis tastes like im in to watch the results.. Get some of that Skunk Oder from the hunting stores and use that. You will have the RKS smell :) I guess I should be giving anyone ideas here. Don't be a douchebag and spray your buds with this

None of us knows what smoked kool-aid tastes like. As far as celery goes all this will show is osmotic pressure works. Does saw dust smell like burning wood? If you want good tasting weed grow the strain of choice well. It's easier to manipulate growing plants than it is dead ones.

Really ? You asked a question, we answered. And then get rude on us ?

You think in all the hundreds and thousands of years your the absolutely very first stoner to come up with this "brand new idea !!!!" Get over yourself, there is a reason it's not done, and your probably about to find out why.
Have we done it personally "NO" Has it tried done before ? I would bet several times.

Again, good luck with you experimenting. Be a little nicer to the people around you though.

Hey Idiot,
You're the one that seems the most interested in it, so go do it and document it for everyone else. I'm not sure if you were expecting an overwhelming flood of support for this idea but you did get about what I expected to see when I opened this thread for a laugh. The main failure of the thought process has already been mentioned: effects of combustion ...flavor and health.
But as you don't agree, obviously, then you should find out for yourself and document it for future reference. This way others can bask in your utter genius or point to so others don't need to make the same mistake.
Now, you will probably get more help in your experiment if you decide on a plan of attack, describe your planned process and ask for ideas to make sure the controls are accurate.
Who knows, you just may prove yourself to be the idiot savant of flavored mj ....or just another in the long line of regular idiots. Time will tell. ;)
Good luck.

Well folks the title says it all. I personally do not use any flavored flush stuff or whatever. I water with spring fed well water for last 2 weeks , sometimes up to 3 weeks. But here we go. I remember back in the late 80s or very early 90s that High Times rag talking about using extracts to flavor the plant.They were saying drill a small hole through the stem base,then thread some wick material through the hole,put the end of the wick in a small jar of extract of any flavor.Yor end result would be the smell and taste of the extract you used. Did anyone out there reading ever try this???? I would think it would work if you wanted something exotic smellin or tasting. But rather than drill into a beautiful girl for the test, couldn't you just wait until the last couple weeks,let one get really thirsty and mix an extract with water and let her take it in that way?? Although I really enjoy the pure taste of good flowers... I wouldn't mind doing a test for the sake of science. I was thinkin peppermint LSD. I have some who are at a tad over 8 weeks.Any input??? I will do it on 1 if there is some interest. People buyin drops of flavor and smokin berry blunts and shit may take interest to this.:thank you:

Good luck and share the results! :tiphat:

WOW!! now i have my heads up my ass......

im not going to backup shit for my comment, its common sense that this wont work.....

assholes been trying to flavor there inferior weed for years.......

Perhaps it's good to incorporate the knowledge about osmotic pressure into your common sense, otherwise you sound like someone "common", but without "sense" ;)

Of course, it will will work.... to some extent. The interesting part is what types of aromatic molecules will work best, i.e. will be transported in enough quantity to the buds and will keep their smell at the high temperatures of burning.
Good solubility in water seems a requirement.

Useful Idiot. I don't think it was necessary to go to the extent you did with your comments. Don't be doing it again.....

My guess is that it doesn't work because outside of other issues already mentioned (eg there's a difference between how corn tastes when eaten, and how it tastes when smoked) the capillary action between resin glands and roots/xylem that the op is lookin for simply does not exist. In the future there may be additives/techniques that might promote certain terpene pathways over others but I don't believe we are quite there yet.-T

Never tried wicking, but I can tell you that cut branches when put in RO and then placed in the fridge will continue to grow at a reduced pace as well as purple up.

:wave:

well , now im tempted to put a whole plant in the fridge before chop and see if i can't get some purple color... anyone else think this is ok to do??

Moving stuff to the trichomes might be slower, but I don't think the OP meant that. Bringing the aromatic molecules in the bud should be enough, unless the pure hash is to be smoked.

I like the idea of this thread not because I'd put aromatic/paint chemicals in my bud but because it is interesting from scientific point of view, so to say. As far as I can see, the OP is not going to sell the resulting bud, so we can only gain from such experience.
