the one great thing about that ounce was it only cost like $50 and I'll always have a little nostalgia for the days of dropping like $200 on lovely weed and feeling weed rich for like a week before accidentally smoking it all in blunts

IMO the biggest drawback of the 50$ oz was the splitting headache.

Re: edible chat - high potency weed edibles give me an almost physical hangover. Just tired, dehydrated, very sore, usually nauseous. Does anyone else feel like that the next day?


Also, has anyone tried live resin in a Volcano or similar vaporizer? I'd like to get into live resin / dabbing at home, but I don't want to deal with a torch or nail.

Some newbie questions as I'm still like a month into this at most. And I've read some answers here I'm positive, but uh... :420:

Vape pen cartridges. I saw some talk about this just a little bit ago. Mine has started to have some sort of blockage. I've cleaned and poked around the business end and can't see an obstruction. It goes away with a major blow or suck action (lol) and feels like there's a physical blockage. It's back by the next time I use it. What gives? It's a Bloom cartridge, but I know providers vary wildly and that may not mean anything to anyone out of the region.

The same thing happens to me towards the end of the cart. It seems like vaped oil is building up inside the cart and it eventually blocks it, although once the cart is warm than the oil flows and it unclogs itself. I dont know what to do about that, it always seems like a waste :question:

Its weird in NY now. A bunch of headshops and smoke shops are now selling stickers and oh hey with the purchase of that sticker you get a free gift of weed with that. And during the summer people would set up a pop up outdoor vendor market. Set up a tent and take "donations" and hand out some free weed and edibles.

Did I say weird its actually pretty awesome. Is this how things work elsewhere where weed is now decriminalized?

Most places go through that phase, because decriminalization / legalization aren't synonymous with opening a retail store. When MA went legal, there were a lot of people selling T shirts for 5 bux with a free 8th of weed on craigslist.

California was slightly ahead of the curve, because medical dispensaries have been entrenched here for years now, but just flipping the switch overwhelmed a lot of them.

TBH i'm continously astonished that nobody has named a covid-19 strain yet. I was expecting corona crippler or cougher-19 by like June 2020, and yet here we are

edit : to be clear I'm not clamoring for this. a lot of people have obviously died or been seriously impacted by covid-19, and I'm not making any sort of joke at their expense. I guess I was expecting the weed industry to be trashier than it is?

Hello weed friends

I smoke a lot of vape carts. I feel they're probably bad for me, just in a general disposable-metal-coil-heated-and-inhaled kinda way. I want to switch to live resin w/o the cart, so i guess this is dabbing? I had a dab rig once but the butane torch was an extreme turn off. I had this expensive battery powered pen looking thing that you could scoop resin into, and it worked sorta OK for a little bit, but it ultimately crapped out.

Is there a semi-portable way to dab/vape live resin without loading up my own carts? Alternatively is there a home dab rig that I can just plug in and spoon resin into and vape?

my buddy uses a carta 2 focus v and it's pretty sweet, i think a lot of people would agree it's one of the best. i also like using a dynavap with a coil in it and an inductive heater. there's the ispire wand and you can use the buckets it comes with in your glass or you can get an adapter and heat your dynavap with it

Thank you! I was curious if something like the wand existed; like an electric way to fire any dab rig. However:



I think I need this. Thanks for all the recommendations, will post trip pics!

I live in the UK and a friend from the states brought over some vapes and gummies. I've found myself having a much, much nicer time with these than smoking. Unfortunately don't think there's any way I can order more - stories of people trying to import are a real mixed bag.

Didn't Heathrow stop turning people away with less than an ounce? I also believe that weed is now recreationally legal in NYC... fly out there, have a weekend, fly home with your bag stuffed*

to people that vape - is the extra cost of live resin worth it versus distillate? I can get distillate 1g cart for like 25, while a live resin one is 45.

the distillate will have less terpenes and such in it, so its less of a :airquote: complete :airquote: high

Nearly every single live resin cart is still made with distillate in some capacity, so they're not really necssarily healthier. The big reason that I stick with the live resin carts (specifically Select but others) is the manufacturers don't add any of the perfumey tastes to them.

I was like.. dude you flew 24 hours to smoke weed, we got real good weed right here :catstare:

Now that Thailand has legalized for medical and seems to be considering recreational, I wonder if Thai sticks will be their new pad thai

Just been to three shops and all the 510 carts seem to be counterfeit CA brands. Lame, as the counterfeits can be incredibly unhealthy to smoke and the legit store is 2x $$.

I guess extra $$ as a "don't die" tax is probably ok, but it's annoying!

:haibrower: yeah i don't gently caress with those counterfeit carts after the vitamin E debacle. Plus those carts always taste perfume-y

I dunno if I could ever go back to smoking flower. It just doesn't taste/smell as good as vape pens, plus the actual smoke smell and stuff.

I maybe replied in the Addicts thread, but I had the same arc with RSO like twenty years ago. I don't care for Indica effects so it was sort of a novel thing for me, but two of my roommates hosed their world up for like two months with a syringe apiece. They'd squeeze a dollop onto a leaf bowl, each take like one rip, and be :okpos: for hours. For a long time we only knew it as hash oil and spoke of it with both fear and awe. Said two roommates also deep fried pizza rolls and wrapped them in cream cheese and pepperoni :dafuq::barf:

yeah actually that's very specifically what I remember about it - it was basically like God-resin, in taste and smell and consistency. I never tried eating it though :stare:

Hardawn posted:

I need to Google a visual chart of the different consistencies of concentrates that result from the various extraction methods.

there really are only two methods - chemical and mechanical. Chemical is alcohol, butane, or whatever. Mechanical would be something like cold water hash bags or a live rosin press.

The issue with chemical extraction is getting the extracting chemical back out. The issue with mechanical is efficiency and potency. So for example, butane will make the THC literally run off the weed, but you have to get the butane back out. And even if you go through and sort/sift a buncha flower until its all bud, sticking it in a 10-ton press will have less amount/potency of a yield vs butane. These are sorta broad generalizations (getting the butane back out isn't necessarily hard, the potency yields from mechanical presses are nominal if the bud is processed correctly, etc.)

If you're buying any sort of concentrate from a store, its 99.999999999% likely it was made using butane unless very specifically noted. Also I've tried both mechanical processes at home numerous times with various results. Cold water hash was usually a novel afternoon making a big mess in the backyard to get some funky poo poo that looked and smelled like lawn clippings, but had a very distinct high. I've also used a t-shirt press to press weed into oil, which didn't come out that great but I blame my setup more than anything.
