Jealous of the high-tech ganja you guys get. For me it's straight Thai bush-weed. Cheap as fuck though, so there's that.

That it does. Oddly enough a lot of friends who have visited have claimed it gets them really head high. I think @Sweat Tea said it's high in THC or something. I wouldn't know though.

Always smoke before the gym. I've just finished writing up a few weeks of lesson plans for this learning center and am heading over to my other workplace in a few minutes. There I will upload a pic of my glorious lunch.

Interesting. I have a few questions about your BHO process. When you use the vac oven. How many inches of mercury, at what temp and how long in the oven?
All I can tell you is the extract is in the oven about 5-8 days. I'm still in the learning process. I know that I increase the mercury in increments of 5 every few minutes for a little bit, other than that I'd be talking out my ass.

Every few minutes over the 5-8 days? Are you losing vaccum, or are you raising it over time? Do you start low for a pre determined amount of time working up (or down in this case) to 30.00 inHg. What is your target inHg? Do you maintain a true vacuum throughout the process or go up and down to work the solvent out? Sorry for the odd questions.


Also, im not familiar with using propane as a solvent. Is there any difference in the process vs butane? Why use it?

To my knowledge we raise and lower the vaccum for a couple of days to work the solvent out.

Our solvent is a mixture of propane and butane. I'm not exactly sure why we do it that way, but I will find out.

I'm still really new to the job, but as I get more familiar with how everything operates, I'd be glad to share information.

Awesome. Im very interested for obvious reasons. Im thinking of upgrading to a passive reclaim system. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

BJTT_Pella @BJTT-Pella so we raise the inHg in increments of 5 until we reach 30inHg. We let it stay there for 5 to 8 days, but my coworker is saying we could probably take the slabs out after 4 days. Temperature ranges 96F-99F.

Just got to try wax for the first time. Tasted like Windex. What prices should I be expecting for this stuff in relation to a $100 quarter of dry herb?

if it tasted like windex then its garbage.

Its hard to say what you should be expecting. but if you are paying $100 for a quarter of bud then expect to pay about $70/g for mediocre shit.

I get "shatter" from $25/g - $90/g. it really depends.

but one thing i know is, it shouldnt take like any solvent.

this is the best stuff I have ever smoked. its a type of "shatter" called "sap". its just a different extraction method. it was $80/g at a Vancouver dispensary. so its expensive, and probably some of the most potent shit you can buy in the world. I wish I could get more, the smoke tasted like a sweet lemon.

It should not cost you more than $30-$40 a gram for concentrate.

$80 for a gram is so over priced.

you are wrong. I am a member at 4 dispensaries in Canada & the USA. feel free to look at any dispensaries menu. I'll wait right here.

here are a few different for you to peruse from Vancouver, Okanagan, Seattle & Colorado.

Menu - Eden Medicinal Society

Our Menu

New Millennium Menu

Seattle Cannabis Company - Recreational Menu

Denver Relief Menu

Native Roots in Denver Menu


trust me when I tell you. $80/g aint shit. and that Shyla K stuff is easily the best shit I have ever smoked in my 17 years of smoking.

and from my experiences, Vancouver has ALWAYS been a few years ahead of the USA in all things MJ. they dont call it Vansterdam and the weed capital of the world for nothing.

Maybe I'm describing it wrong then. I wouldn't say it tasted like a solvent. But more a super pure hit of smoke when compared to combusting the whole flower. Like straight THC taste I suppose. First taste comparison that popped in my head was Windex.

thats cool man! I am happy for you! the future is so awesome!!! my wife says sometimes that it tastes like "pinesol". lol. but obviously it doesnt haha.

where do you live man?

do you happen to have a picture of the shatter?

and as I said, if you are paying $100/q for good bud then expect to pay around $70/g for mediocre shatter.

Amen, brother. This shit was non-existant when I was a smoker back in the day.

I live in Orlando, FL.
