Oh gently caress! At least theoretically the tubing can’t be expensive to replace right? Blumats are my savior as well.

you can get a big roll from sustainablevillage.com for pretty cheap, that's where i get all of my blumat supplies. the bigger annoyance is it can screw up your carefully calibrated settings either by soaking the soil or your needing to remove the 3mm tubing from the blumat to replace it. not the end of the world but annoying to be sure. i'm considering leaving a constant slow drip somewhere nearby just to give a nondestructive option if they keep coming back

The smell is drastically different. It's been a while since I traipsed down the scent lure aisles, but it's obvious it's not human piss pretty much immediately.

If you're being watched and can't substitute, you need to look at creatine and vitamin B complex at your local GNC or whatever, those are the active ingredients in those "herbal cleanse" drinks. I had to do that with some frequency a long time ago in the army, because they have meatgazers for their piss tests. Dilution is the solution to pollution when you know the testing thresholds and they're higher than zero.

I do not miss getting drug tested for work, since work is trimming weed. I still have a bottle of synthetic around, just in case.

They went up to 100mg at the places I visited, I was not brave enough to try them.

50mg left me stoned for far too long and induced a lot of anxiety as it was the night before my flight home and I was terrified of going through security with all my leftover candy (FWIW, they don't give a poo poo).

Ok I am like the king of overdoing it but 100mg THC to the dome is gonna gently caress up your world so much, I don't care what it's mixed with. Are you supposed to drink a single 12oz bottle of soda over a day?

Super high potency drinks like that include a small plastic cup for "dosing" - that's also how they get around the "no edibles more potent than 10mg/serving" rule

anything that isnt a lab test of a specific nugget is just an estimate. Also, I dont think 40÷ strains exist in the wild, I have definitepy never seen any. They top out at 26 percent in mu experience.

Place I'm trimming now has at least one strain clear 30% on test every month, but most fall in the 15-25% window. Usually those higher testing strains have smaller yields. Like 3-5oz per plant instead of 6-9oz or better.

Last place I worked paid their testing lab to fudge numbers, so don't think numbers are ever right. I worked water there and I know their nutes were hosed because the "master grower" was only there once every three weeks and would adjust his formula every drat time, so I was constantly changing poo poo on his order.

The place I trim now, I haven't seen one bit of mold or a speck of powdered mildew. poo poo gets mowed real close, no excess leaf or stem, it's worth what they charge. I'll take a picture of my trim tray later.

40% weed doesn't exist unless it's in a mad weed scientists' basement. Or rolled in kief before sent for test.

Colorado requires 3rd party lab testing if you're going to put numbers on your weed to sell.

I've seen some strains in the PA MMJ dispensaries at 30-36%, but who knows how accurate the testing is.

Sorry that wasn't clear. Leafly purported that the strains I added to my cart were each between 40-48% Total THC potency.
The label contains the actual (28.16% was the highest) but I wouldn't have seen that until the dispensary filled my order and handed it to me in a brown paper bag.

e: I have previously gotten 32%+ from this dispensary so I wouldn't have questioned it being 40%+ otherwise.

Harton
Jun 13, 2001

Oh yeah I wouldn’t trust anything online that’s not just a generalization on higher potency or lower potency strains.

As a grower I never get to test my poo poo and it’s kinda frustrating. I just assume from a baseline of around 15% for edibles cause that seems like a reasonable target.

Welll.... Since most THC from bud comes from THCa, you'd lose something like 11.2% of the molecule weight when you burn off the acid. So a 100% THCa bud would be like 88.7%~ THC.

Yay chemistry and math.

I wonder how often paying a "higher THC number fee" actually happens. Labs for sure gently caress around (here's one analysis https://www.straightlineanalytics.biz/2017/03/peak-potency-lab-friendliness-is-back-with-a-gusto/), just, how much is outright collusion between grower and tester, versus just a hearty blend of incompetence and fraud

That's gonna vary. Like, a lot.

We have some good grows here in Colorado. We have just as many shady grows though. If you're buying in Denver, keep an eye on Westwords' website as they frequently publish recalls. Or if you're really curious about dirty grows, join the Colorado badged network on instagram or facebook, they should he public now. Also, if you want to be thorough while at a dispensary, ask if it's their product, or wholesale. If wholesale, ask who the wholesaler is, and compare to past recalls on Westwords' site. Mjardin (one of the larger grow companies and wholesalers in Colorado) is a frequent flyer on the recall list, so avoid their poo poo like the plague.

They (mjardin) literally put moldy weed on the market before 4/20 last year and didn't issue a recall until weeks later, when it was all surely smoked or trashed.

And if you're in Colorado Springs, avoid the Green Source like the goddamn plague. I can't warn against their weed strongly enough, it's garbage that never gets flushed before harvest and is all machine trim, so you get extra leaf, extra stem with their garbage. Also mold, mildew and bugs grown in 90°F rooms with 90% humidity. poo poo smells like sweat socks.
