This isn't really accurate, different plastics have different reactions to various solvents. This website has an extensive list of plastics and their compatibility with various cleaning agents:

Of course you need to know exactly what plastics are used in whatever you're trying to clean.

That's fair, I'm mostly just going by my own experiences with cleaning vape stuff - plastic bits looking rough/cracked after a soak, rubberized finishes coming off in chunks, etc.

I replaced my ol' Pax 1 with a Pax 3 and they specifically tell you in the instructions not to soak the plastic bottom piece in isopropyl alcohol, unlike the original that was metal. This piece plays a role in air intake with the device. So, eh, read the instructions folks.

Currently, the balcony. Overall, the front step of the place I used to live, because it was surrounded by pastures and I could sit there just watching the birds and getting stoned while territorial swallows dive-bombed me

It’s incredible to be this weed spoiled. I have 30+ strains to choose from, along with 20+ concentrates, 30+ vape products, and 50+ edibles.

Especially with new strains/products rotating in on a weekly basis, it means I could probably go a year without having the same thing twice. And all of it is incredibly grown and cured well.

That’s fuckin bananas. For years it was mids, beast, or headies. The best I could get then is maybe on par with the worst I can get now, quality wise.

It’s the weedaissance.

https://www.northjersey.com/story/news/new-jersey/2018/09/18/nj-legal-weed-nearly-ready-fight-over-how-much-tax-marijuana/1344876002/

quote:

A bill to create a legal marijuana marketplace in New Jersey is "98 percent" done, with a dispute over tax rates the only major sticking point, one of the state's leading legal weed advocates said.

Scott Rudder, who heads the New Jersey CannaBusiness Association, a trade group of aspiring marijuana growers, cultivators, retailers and related businesses, said the major holdup is whether to impose a 25 percent tax on retail marijuana sales right away, or start with a lower tax rate that escalates to that level over several years.

Speaking at a conference sponsored by the business newspaper and website NJBIZ, Rudder said he remains optimistic that lawmakers will soon hammer out a deal to make New Jersey the ninth state to allow adults 21 and over to use marijuana for any reason.

“I’m very, very, very confident," Rudder told more than 100 people at a hotel in Somerset. "We have worked out 98 percent of the issues.”

He spoke less than two weeks before Senate President Stephen Sweeney's self-imposed deadline for passing a legal weed bill. Sweeney, a Gloucester Democrat who supports legalization, told reporters last month that he hopes to put a bill on the desk of Gov. Phil Murphy by the end of September.

The date has no legal significance, and lawmakers have missed two other informal deadlines: the end of Murphy's first 100 days in office, in late April, and the passage of a state budget at the end of June. Murphy, who also backs legal weed, had included anticipated revenue from marijuana sales in his budget proposal.

Speaking on the radio call-in program "Ask Governor Murphy" on Monday night, the Democratic governor also expressed optimism about prospects for a marijuana bill.

“I continue to believe it’s this year," Murphy said. "Doing it is important but doing it right is more important and that’s going to be key.”

Murphy did not take sides in the debate over taxes. At an unrelated event Tuesday in Carteret, he told reporters, “We’ve not hardened a position on taxes."

A bill sponsored by Sweeney and Sen. Nicholas Scutari, D-Union, would have imposed a 10 percent tax on marijuana that would have increased to 25 percent over four years. The lower initial rate was intended to stamp out illegal sales by allowing legal businesses to operate profitably. The bill has been shelved in favor of new legislation that has yet to be made public.

At the forum in Somerset, Bill Caruso, a lawyer and lobbyist who was among the founders of the pro-legalization New Jersey United for Marijuana Reform, said the final bill likely will allow communities to levy their own smaller sales taxes on legal cannabis. The tax revenue should sweeten prospects for marijuana stores around the state, Caruso said, noting that many communities have taken steps to ban them.

“They’re going to derive revenue direct to their town, not a pass-through from Trenton," Caruso said. "That’s a game-changer.”

If a marijuana bill passes the Legislature and is signed by Murphy, legal sales are likely months away, pending the creation of rules and regulatory oversight. Advocates have suggested that the state's existing six medical marijuana stores — soon to expand to 12 -- would have the first crack at non-medical sales.

Little-known part of the proposed bill that I'm pretty stoked about - dispensaries will be able to offer on-site smoking lounges, like cigar stores.

Also I really hope they end up allowing towns to tax directly since it will be a race to see which town that already banned sales can 180 the fastest :laugh:

Marijuana can be mishandled severely, cut fingernails, clean hands, good hygiene, clean utensils, and a brain is required for a safe smoking experience. I’ve seen people get messed up really bad from mishandling marijuana. That explains the lacing weed part. Maybe my problems are local i don’t know

I’m bitter because I ordered clones from some random website under the guise that it wasn’t a scam, but, get this - it was, so I have to resort to my second choice for clones, but they have poo poo clones. Basically I’m waiting for my chargeback on my credit card so I can buy poo poo clones.

there's only 2 times you have to worry about laced weed. if you didn't buy it and you don't know the person you are buying from. if its legal weed its heavily regulated they practically work in clean rooms and everything is on the level.

Yeah man, in the legal system in my state they've got cameras on everything and it's all monitored like a hawk by people that are just itching for one small gently caress-up to get just cause to shut down entire operations. I doubt lacing is on any of the growers, distributors, or sales peoples' minds considering the risks it poses to their livelihoods and especially considering how much money they're making in the legal market without having to cut corners like street dealers.
