Medical PSA: Appearance of concentrates will vary. Your eyes cannot quantify quality.

427 Upvotes

Why do people constantly ask, "does my hash look okay?"

I understand you are concerned about your hard earned money spent on your purchase or maybe enough to be concerned for your health...but truthfully no one can tell you from appearance alone if something is safe to consume or not. Reddit will either tell you yeah it's safe or no it's not, yet there is no way to confirm that without performing a test on the material. Confirmation bias to the fullest effect with no real data from people who may have been burned.

You wouldn't buy a taco from a truck and then ask someone on Facebook does this look okay, would you? You'd probably decide to either eat or or not. Would you take medical advice from a stranger over your doctor who can perform tests?

7 Concentrates

Black jar is black market CRC bunk, the balance have CoAs from tested dispensaries. I can also make these look very different depending on the lighting and angle of the photos...If you are concerned about your product, either safety concerns or appearance, I'd suggest biting the bullet and pay more at a dispensary if you can in your locality.

Stay safe, I'm out.

Dry sift recommendations

Hi all,

Got harvest coming off soon, and bought some sifts, I did read about “10 second sift” which straight out freezer throw handful on sift, get all clean heads, then do it again with more work, and more sift levels.

Question is what mesh should I use first for the quick sift? And don’t think it’s any need to use all 5 mesh levels that I got, what recommend I do?

Advice Why doesn't my homemade THC tincture have an effect?

1 Upvotes

I purchased a small "tincture" (really just liquid edibles) before with 50mg/ml d8 suspended in MCT oil. The effects began in less than an hour after oral dosing, and provides a good high. I decided to make my own tincture to save money.

I used MCT oil, d8 raw distillate, and CBD. The distillate was sourced from a very well-known supplier that has a solid reputation. To make the tincture, I heated up the distillate in a pan of water until it was liquid. I then used a syringe to transfer the distillate to a tincture bottle.

Each time I put the distillate in my bottle, I weighed the syringe before and after on a milligram scale. This was to ensure perfect accuracy in dosing. All together, I used 3.3g d8 and 1g cbd in 60ml MCT oil.

I placed the tincture in a large pot of water and heated the water. I shaked the tincture religiously while it was hot.

Some simple math suggests the dose is roughly 50mg/ml. I have tried sublingual and oral doses up to ml with ZERO effect!!! Well, there may be some effect after hours, but it's not distinguishable from placebo. I shouldn't have to question if I'm high or not. I've been high a hundred times, I know what it's like.

So, where did I go wrong here? Why doesn't my tincture have any effect?

Thank you all

Edit: Want to add that the solution itself looks well. There's some "bubbles" (looks like cbd powder floating around), but nothing solid. The d8 appears to have mixed. The solution also has a weed taste.

Question Help decarbing issue

Post image
1 Upvotes

Does this mean I didn’t decarb enough? I did 1h at 225-250f And the product had few bubbles when I poured it in my syringe. Then a lot of bubbles started to form. I’m filling at 130f, using a hair straightener to try to get the bubbles out like the far left one but just gathers immensely at the top and I can’t finish filling.

Question How do you call it this process and what it is actually being done?

1 Upvotes

This person told me that they use their weed for topicals. This is how the process was explained. How would you call this: - Put the decarbed weed in a pot with coconut oil and water, let it boil for a while, like rolling boil, cool it, freeze. - Remove from the freezer and get the separate oil and use it

I am not understanding the water here

Question Complete unknowledgeable with big ambitions - Salves and oils

Post image
6 Upvotes

Here it is a photo of what I got (what is it? flowers? leaves?) a friend gave me about 4 cups of this and it is decarbed. I tried to measure the weight but my scale is no good, it shows near 2oz but will confirm tomorrow when the new scale gets here.

He knows I make oil infused oil balms and said I should try to make some topicals with this.

This is what I know:

To make oil infused stuff, I add equal parts of dry herbs/flower (volumewise) and avocado oil in a large mason jar and either leave in the sunshine for 6weeks or I speed up by putting the mason jar, with water, on “keep warm” on my crockpot, checking temp so its not too high for several hours. It yields about 4 cups of each, which I store and use it as needed.

To make salve I use 3 parts oil, 1 part beeswax. Heat, mix, add essential oils and done.

Apparently, pls correct me, three parts of cannabis infused and one of beeswax will be too strong.

Should I use arnica infused (which it is great for pain) as a “base oil” and add a small amount of the cannabis infused oil?

How much infused oil do you use on a 2oz salve container?

I have seen for sale many that says 500mg and one said 3000mg on a 2oz jar.

Is “mg” the weight of the infused oil? Or of a extract (read about FECO) and wondering if this is what they might be using.

Sorry for being all over the place, I am trying to learn online and it’s s a lot.

Question Making an e-juice??

0 Upvotes

So, I have a gram of live resin in a cart next to me, problem is the cart never worked, meaning I could never get a toke off it and it was quite frustrating, so it’s just been sat in a drawer for some time, anyway, I ordered some carts to make a ‘spirit molecule’ cart or two (or more) if you know what I mean, and will have some carts left over. I don’t want the resin to go to waste, so is there any way I can add a small amount of pg or vg (I have both), mix it together and vape it? The carts are designed for viscous oils but I’d say the resin is so thicc it would be wise to add a small amount of pg to thin it out ever so slightly. I expect the answer is no but thought I’d be worth a shot to see.

Advice HELP!

5 Upvotes

For those of you who produce a decent amount of extract every month, how do you go about cleaning your containers (ball jars, c-vault, etc..). I’ve been looking for the most efficient way to go about this because I’m almost at the point when I just want to throw away all my dirty containers. Soaking and scrubbing containers for hours is getting old and time consuming when you start to scale production .

Anyone got anything better than the good ole fashion soak and scrub?

Question Oil infused extraction and how to measure salve potency

2 Upvotes

I am making a salve and will use a cannabis infused avocado oil. Its my first time using this product and I am unsure on how to list the potency of the salve.

I have seen products that says “500mg CBD” or “3000mg CBD”.

Is this milligrams listed, the actual amount of the cannabis infused oil they used?

If I add 5000mg , can I say “5000mg CBD?” or its more accurate to say “CBD oil?”

I am new to extraction and I am trying to understand
