Yeah, dude looks great and is north of 40. Glad he didn't wind up like the typical child actor for the time.

can someone explain to me if bigfoot is real? like if they’re real then why don’t we have proof, we even have proof of aliens now certified by the US govt

As far as I'm concerned, there's more evidence of bigfoot than Jesus. It's just a matter of opinion what evidence is real or perceived real.

Besides, a world without bigfoot is a world without wonder, nothing to marvel at.

I'd like to remain optimistic about NA bigfoot, but it overwhelmingly feels bunk. I do give leeway to the idea of it because of its' presence in native american folk history.

I'd also like to hope that if they do exist, they manage to continue evading contact. It's their best chance for survival, should they exist.

Ancient Aliens is personal favorite brain candy, I love when they circle around to a bigfoot theory, my mind immediately rots from the inside for the idea. It's probably the best show on History channel right now, because of the absurdity. Narrator sucks though, always accentuating poo poo into a question.

12-14 hours after the 2nd shot, I started feeling like hell. I felt absolutely garbage awful the first night, but felt much better yesterday and got some solid sleep last night. Feeling better today for sure, much thanks to "weed"

The best way to buy weed at a dispensary is to look at what you're going to buy. Don't look at a sample jar, don't look at a list of terpenes, don't, please, please don't, look at the tested THC percentage. Look at it, leave if they don't let you, smell it if you can, you probably won't be able to for now because of COVID but it's definitely something to do normally, then go from there.

I literally don't know. It's some kind of spectrometry result, giving you an idea of "how much" THC (and sometimes other cannabinoids) is "in" the weed. As a percentage of what, I can't tell you. I've asked knowledgeable people and gotten everything from "I don't know" to multiple different but very confident answers. I'm sure there's a simple answer to what it actually is, basically it's just supposed to tell you how "strong" the weed is, or at least that's how people look at it.

I've seen stuff that's just caked in trichomes clock in at 12% THC-A, I've seen buds that look completely clean labeled at like 30% or whatever you want. I don't get it.

Oh no
I’m looking at a COA for some medical flower and all the definitions are at the bottom. In particular it says Total THC (the advertised number) = (%THC-A*0.877) + %Delta-9 THC.

Inspector Hound
Jul 14, 2003

I'll be up front, I'm sure I'm being dense here. A percentage of what? The trichome mass? The whole bag of vegetable matter? When I get some 21% ABV rum that means 21% of what's in that handle (always get a handle of rum) is alcohol, give or take. Is the label on the weed package telling me how much if what I'm buying is THC by mass or volume or whatever? That seems like what the label on concentrates would be telling you, since it's, you know, concentrate, it's just supposed to be the goo itself. But flower I don't get.

Mass. A gram of 20% flower has 200mg of THC (however that is defined)

It’s more messed up with distillates and RSO and stuff because every measured thing is in grams but since it’s liquid it’s dispensed by volume.

1ml = 1g in terms in terms of water, and hash oil is denser than water so... Yep.

THC-A becomes D9-THC when the acid drops off. When THC-A drops the A and becomes THC (natural degradation or heat), it loses 12.3% mass. So if you buy 1g of pure thc-a, converting it to thc would net you 877mg.

You might see THC-A represented in/as "total cannabinoids" on packaging, and active THC calculated out separately.

Plants do produce small amounts of active THC, but the bulk of it you consume is in the form of -A. Which is why it's in the equation.

it's this. whether the numbers are accurate or not is a completely different story but this is what they claim to be measuring. anyway one of the pros of being in a black market state is that you dont have to concern yourself with such things. you go to your guy and pick from the 1-3 kinds they have available. simple as

i interviewed at a testing lab (I was a chemist at the time) and they dry the weed in an oven to drive off moisture and then weigh it and then burn it in a gas chromatograph and measure what comes off. they use the proportion of the offgas to figure out what the % is. some labs might use a mass spectrometer to do pretty much the same thing, but those are generally more expensive so I think GC is more common.

I just see things like thick rear end stems and trichome concentration in lower vs upper buds being a factor that would make that measurement a broad guideline at best. I guess you have to know something any the potency and cannabinoid distribution and etc, that just seems a little inconsistent/gameable.

vv this, get it if it looks and smells good vv

If it wasn't for required testing, they'd just slap a range on strains like seedbanks do with seeds.

If it wasn't for that testing, there'd be a lot more moldy weed on the market.

"Green" appeals to the Gen-X neoliberal environmentalists, while "Monkey" attracts the millennials who nostalgically remember random webcomic humor on the Internet. "Armpits" tested low across all demos but the CEO's cousin suggested it so, at the end of the day, it is what it is.
