I think it is bad logic to presume that these primative practises were in some way the result of the use of psychedelics. These are RACIAL practises aimed at preserving tribal purity by controlling breeding and/or promoting recognition of tribal membership. I do not think it is logical to...

Well, how long ago was it first used, do you think? My guess is ancients knew of cannabis long before they figured how to make alcohol. After all, all you really had to do was eat it. Lol. Same for shrooms as well. There are over 25 species of psychoactive psilocybin mushrooms, they are all over...

It is a great idea. Try soaking some iso into a small cotton ball (maybe a cutip?) before cleaning out the conc dish. After it dries, I believe you will get a much more concentrated "sponge".

Yeah, I rinse with iso, then pour the solution into a bottle with a small vent hole in the neck. Over time, the iso dries out and you have a nice gooey honey-pot. But somehow, I dunno, when it's time to consume it, and you have a nice fresh jar of some concentrate from some place in BC, it's...

Well, in my experience, doesn't really get it all out. Still a brownish coating left, which is psychoactive. If you heat it up carefully with he heat gun, you can suck off the vapour produced with a straw! I like the bread idea. Another thing I have tried is to heat it up, but instead of using...

No, I think you misunderstood me. During the extraction process when you are working with a solvent, the reflux idea (i.e. putting an upside down metal cover on the vessel and cooling it with ice) will prevent the loss of terpenes. Remember that even before they boil, some of the terps molecules...

There are two problems with chlorophyll. Taste is one of them. The other is that it makes the vapour really harsh and cough inducing. Reflux and distillation are different. Reflux means that the vapour of the solvent in which you are boiling your plant matter is trapped, cooled off (condensed...

Hmmmm. What was your exact juice recipe? I cannot think why it would get weak like that. But if you want to figure it out I suggest you start by making some juice with 100% pg and some with 100% vg. Perhaps one will work better than the other.

UV may break down chlorophyll, but what is it changed to? One thing's for sure: whatever it is, it has no medicinal value. Preferred method is to use a clay powder. There are commercially available powders designed specifically to clean shit out of solutions. The clay is white, you put it the in...

A newly published archeological research paper reports finding burnt cannabis residues on the altar stone of the excavated First Temple of Judaism dated to about 800 B.C. The residues were analyzed using state of the art instruments at two different Israeli labs. The absence of pollen or seed...

After all the cases of damaged lungs lately, I have finally come to the conclusion that the best material to use is sift. It is directly from flowers, no intermediate processing. The trichs' walls will certainly have a small amount of fiber, requiring selection of the right type of atty as it...

Thanks for the info. Full spectrum oils are generally thicker than thc oil. Diluting with Peg has some health risks associated with it unless you can be certain that it is not in contact with a coil winding over about 350 deg F (forget the exact number). Above that temp peg breaks down releasing...

Lol, Acolyte. Well, I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for any further products from Uptech, free or otherwise. I have been pretty outspoken earlier in this forum about Uptech and the moderator slapped my wrist. And as an engineer I also made a bunch of suggestions but they never replied. I think...

I recently bought a Quartz Quest ("QQ") from Divine Tribe and I am very impressed with it. I had a couple of long chats with Matt (owner of DT) and his whole "quest" has been to build something as close to a banger as possible. He has done a great job. The quartz cup is kinda on the small size...

Well as a purist I am not a big fan of vaping vg. The vaping of vg has not been around very long, and the scientific studies are limited. The big ecig manufacturers are not exactly in a big hurry to study it either :( There are some safety standards related to inhaling low concentrations of vg...
