    Do you freeze?

    I've not had any live beetles come thru from either of the two main vendors for leaf. Plenty of dead ones and eggs (or what I assume to be eggs) but nothing alive so far. Let us know how they resolve this for you, inquiring minds want to know....

    Are you able to throw that batch in the freezer while waiting for a response from LO?

    I agree with and understand this part. I didn't know how to interpret the info about how far to rotate the stick, 90 degrees vs 110-120 degrees. Which of those do you find preferrable?

    Remember to take notes on your blends. The real nightmare is when you light up a smoke and you're like "This is awesome! Let me see what I put in this one...ohhh, no notes on this one...dang..."
