    LP's and the MMPR equals Greed

    Which is why HC is to blame and at fault for the current mess that is the MMPR, LP's could be good, they could have fair prices, but by only approving 0.25% of applicants based on arbitrary or corrupt reasons is why we do not have lower priced cannabis and a fair market. Most if not all...

    Extracted Cannabis oil should be available to Canadian Patients

    Your most likely decarbing a large portion of the herb, you can use boiling water to decarb it but it takes longer(I would recommend not placing herb directly in water to decarb) I believe your microwaving will decarb some THCA, how much is very hard to say. Many people report faster...

    Extracted Cannabis oil should be available to Canadian Patients

    Yes THCA will lose its acid chain naturally over time. Your previous statement makes it sound as though if you were to dry out your herb completely it will be debarbed, which if you dont use excessive heat to accomplish will only result in a small amount of THC vs THCA, given somewhat of a...

    Extracted Cannabis oil should be available to Canadian Patients

    Drying does not decarboxylate, heat and time do. If you use fresh or dried bud it will be primarily THCA. Once you have extracted the oil you can purge the residual solvents and keep the oil in acid form or heat it up to decarb.

    Extracted Cannabis oil should be available to Canadian Patients

    It will shatter if you keep it in acid form, if you decarboxylate for ingestion it will become more of an oil consistency.

    Extracted Cannabis oil should be available to Canadian Patients

    5-25% loss on winterize and other purification's. A really nice extract will put out 20-25% initial yield, lets say 100g, after a 20% reduction of impurities your left with 80g. It may not be the norm with commercial grade bm, but its very doable and better.

    Extracted Cannabis oil should be available to Canadian Patients

    Just do some googling on it. The most informative site and info is skunkpharmresearch.com Their section on BHO extraction is from some time ago, before the onset of closed loop systems and the increased control. http://skunkpharmresearch.com/bho-extraction/ You dont have to take my word...

    Extracted Cannabis oil should be available to Canadian Patients

    Yep, some bud is 25-30% THC, consider how much the resin from that same bud would represent with added terpenes and waxes.

    Have you successfully made RSO/Phoenix Tears/Cannabis Oil? Let's talk

    Most people that have successfully undergone the RSO protocol have not used CO2 oil, I guess they cured themselves with poisoned oil? Butane and alcohols can be safely used with the proper techniques. Also, unknown quality and sources of cannabis can be filtered for molds and pesticides...

    Extracted Cannabis oil should be available to Canadian Patients

    Thats 18%, its what I expect with nug run as an average. Closed loop extractors allow one to remove the mystery oil from butane as well. Is $25/g affordable?

    Extracted Cannabis oil should be available to Canadian Patients

    Ive seen RSO at all the vancouver and online dispensaries at 35 a g, and avg price of BHO at $65. I'm thinking one could buy decent bm medicine at 1600/lbs and yield 80ish grams of bho/rso, so $20/g. What should that be sold to the end user for? 35 for gross napatha oil, or 40-90 for bho of...

    MMPR Grow op: Small Scale

    I think one could turn the common kush on the commercial market into purified(mold and pesticide filtered) oil and sell it for around $20-$30/g

    Peace natural recall

    It will be a lot easier for them to standardize the cannabinoid percentages when they are able to extract them from the plant. Making the value of quality flowers they cant even yet produce worth even more.

    Extracted Cannabis oil should be available to Canadian Patients

    I believe it. LP's suck at growing quality herb. Its easy and cheap to turn shit into decent oil/food. Someone said Tweeds first greenhouses was mildewed, if it was, so will the second run. If they can extract and filter the resin to remove contams below the limits they will be able to...

    Peak Weed

    Fields for oil, greenhouses for bud. Quarter ton of oil per acre will change things quickly, could turn it over for $2-$3/g I wonder how many acres to saturate the market? I bet a gram of shatter will be worth the same as a gram of top shelf narrow leaf varieties in bud. The corporatization...

    Health Canada's Medical Pot Program Racks Up Millions In Costs As Approvals Fizzle

    That was a good article. My main question is how does one do this: "New Age Medical Solutions Inc. asked a federal court judge to review its rejection in November after Health Canada said it had not hired a suitable quality assurance person." Glad to see HC getting the flak they deserve...

    THE NFPCC's (when are they coming to Canada)

    Hardest part is infrastructure costs, to set up a garden large enough to supply a decent amount of people a wide variety of strains, takes a large setup. The infrastructure to do so needs to be in place and paid for before cultivation can begin, along time before revenue starts coming in...
