How about rank what you would pay the highest price per gram in concentrate category.

Personally

Dry sift hash
Bubble hash
Shatter
Wax
Oil

Meaning id pay the most for good dry sift, and prob not even buy the shatter or wax or oil. Due to methods used personally. Id still smoke it dont get me wrong... wouldnt buy any tho...

Gettin 1550 for my ogizzle like a BOSS. Vancity too lol. High grade demands high dollar. Too many lazy growers out there producing sub par product. Take the time and do it properly, you will be rewarded.

Think it's possibly a little overstated that Kush is dead, but it's certainly not as popular as it once was. People are tired of it.

You can get 14-16 still on the island too if you do a good job and have something top shelf. Even from brokers. But it has to be a real quad (and to the guy wondering if they exist.... they do, I see them pretty regularly).

Selling 1-2 lbs here and there to the dispensary, or some guy who doesn't know any better doesn't count as the market value. People do get $1200 for big packs but thats if you have the right buyer who can move the stuff fast or you gonna wait for two weeks.

hey dudes
i had the pleasure of hanging out with my organic chemist today in toronto
he said its virtualy impossible to get all the sulvents/ and or additives purged from extracts
he is a power nerd in the subject, not just with resin and canna
i wonder what the overall effect on bidy/brain this is having on our community
seen a ton of black eyed, depressed, psychotic, and zombie like dabbers over the past 2 years.
does anythink this could be sulvent mixture related?
i myself love dabs, but on occaission. not morning eve night :)
food for thought

Makes you wonder why so many guys are into the whipped budder.

Anyone needs a closed loop in Canada let me know.

:ying:
how sensitive was the iso test? If we tested it at a lab with more sensitive tests and equipment would they find iso?
Butane that is winterized in ethanol would be the first choice for me{butane making the best initial extraction, ethanol to get rid of waxes} which ever tech you use it comes down to thin films to purge the solvent the thinner the better{3mm or less thick}...
Just use the iso the way you do a quick wash with ethanol{94%} cold and frozen and quick contact with material.You could probably winterize in the iso i have never tryd it....Good luck...

Yo!
Well, went to canadian tire and bought me bout 250 bucks of gear to satisfy my curiosity...lol. so i 99% qwisoed for calibrating test run 9 grams of buds from Exodus, Ingemar's and some neb. Got me 1.4 g of yellow when low heat THIN LAYER purging, and amber red when oïl slicked greasy at room temp product. Then i qwisoed 28 grams of nebula x somango n. 4 an 8.
Got 7 g of the same quality, bit more caramel -red goody.
I worked in my freezer and didn t cheap out on the Equipment. Now this fookin thing is both clear and physical in a weird almost ingineered balanced way...not natural feeling....
very potent. Shit is expanding and vanishes in thin air before touching the titanium dabking.
SO.....yeah...just took me 30 mins to write this....
testing is fun. followed skunkpharmlabs stories...
Bigups to China Kush for pointing out the direction.

ya, i have seen bubbleman use around 730. i dont have the d nail yet...but i torch my titanium till the red goes away so i am closer to vape.

My concern with this method, as vape mentionned earlier, is the residual from the iso. I fear it is hard to purge without using higher temps on the hotplate (i try to stay at 115 f ) without seeing it start to bubble and reduce and gain a more reddish color. (decarb and loss of terpenes must be significant).
It smells and looks great after this technique, but when i plane it in the parchement paper, folded in half and then re-open it to create new surface area, i get a little smell of iso coming of of it real quick...
So......i come to the obvious conclusion that i need a vacuum oven....

A vacuum oven is a must once you get the hang...

so, should i discard my produce? guess it s never consummable like this without boiling it to shmitterines...?

I am considering purchasing a serious unit...
Which one would you guys consider top of the line in terms of completeness?
I mean, which one offers more options in one ?
I have seen the subzeros look pretty cool.
But i am wondering if there are affordable critical co2 units out there...
best isaw was 70 grand.

save it in the freezer till you get a vacuum chamber/oven of some sort....
The mk111a{terp} is a great unit for the personal user and friends... There are more commercial units around but they go up in price very fast....

also, to complete your thought, i did leave my qwick extractions over night in ultra cold freezer (freezer boost function on those LG) and some unseen material that had passed double filtration did sediment tothe bottom and i stop pourring in my evap vessel just before the smuge...
ps: it did look totally clean in the mason jars right after extract and filter, the sediment appeared over night.
