I was thinking about changing lights in my fairy garden grow I was wondering if a standard 5000k full spectrum led would do better then the Midwest grow light kit
If you are talking tincture yes ethanol something like 190 proof everclear and a process of evaporating it down with heat baths. Let me try and find you I a tek.
I do not use a container inside the ultrasonic cleaner. I grind (not to a powder) the fruit bodies and add it to the tub. Then I pour cold (from the freezer) alcohol (Everclear or Ethanol) until it completely covers the ground up material. Run the ultrasonic cleaner for 2 hrs.

Then I pour cold (from the freezer) alcohol (Everclear or Ethanol) until it completely covers the ground up material. Run the ultrasonic cleaner for 2 hrs.
I then place pantyhose over the opening of a quart mason jar as a make shift filter, and secure in place with a rubber band over the threads of the mason jar. Make sure there is slack in the pantyhose, so that it dips into the jar and isn’t taut.
Then pour both alcohol and ground fruit bodies from the ultrasonic’s tub onto the pantyhose and into the jar to filter out material, and then take off the rubber band twist up the top of the pantyhose to secure all the ground up fruit bodies, and squeeze pantyhose to get the last bit of alcohol out into the jar. Place the ground matter back into the ultrasonic’s tub and repeat the same process once more, but this time with warm water (I prefer distilled or RO water). If your ultrasonic device also has a heating option, I turn it on low for this wash.
Once its filtered and squeezed again, I take the solids and throw them away, and then pour the extract back into the ultrasonic's tub. I then put about 2" of water into my crockpot, place a towel into the water, covering the bottom of the crockpot, and then the tub on top of that so that its sitting on the towel in the water. The towel is to keep the tub off the bottom of the crockpot. Turn the crockpot on low heat, leaving the crockpot with lid off, and use it as a warm water bath to evaporate off most of the alcohol/water. To expedite this process, you can place a fan near to blow across the top of the crockpot to hasten the evaporation process.
