    The "Natural" THC Percentage and THC/Terpene Ratio

    I don't know how you'd test this; you'd have to have 2 batches of weed that are identical except for the quantity of terpenes. I'm kind of a skeptic about whether terpenes have psychological effects (e.g. limonene = creativity), so if I were to speculate, I'd say there wouldn't be a difference...

    The "Natural" THC Percentage and THC/Terpene Ratio

    I think that selecting for more potent weed doesn't require awareness of THC (or CBD). as with all the plants that have been subjected to human selection, it was a trait of weed (more potent probably, although the quality of the high might've been a factor) that was selected for. think of...

    Vaping and depression

    the way the body's cannabinoid receptors work might relate to this. from what I understand, cannabis use causes the number of receptors to decline, but they eventually go back up (this would explain tolerance - at least partly). the interesting (to me at least) question is what the...

    Artisan Vapes... Novelty, Superior, or Douchebaggary? Discuss...

    I think there's actually 3 categories: the masses who are perfectly content with a pax or pen (and are rarely seen in these parts), people who aren't after that last 10% (or so) improvement vapes like the P-80 offer (i.e. people like me who are perfectly happy with a mighty), and people like the...

    Who’s Your Favorite Legal Source for Flower?

    agreed. I don't find it outright scary, but I'm definitely vigilant when I'm there after dark.

    Who’s Your Favorite Legal Source for Flower?

    seattle has an abundance of great dispensaries (e.g. Dockside), but the prices at Shawn Kemp's cannabis are amazing.

    Vaping frequency

    this happened in washington big-time. it's nuts: $3 pre-rolls, $5 grams of (admittedly low-end) wax, $10 for better quality (I'm guessing the cheap wax is due to a glut of leaf/shake from all the flower production). I had it bad for a while; 8 years of legal weed kept me busy checking out...

    New to dabbing

    I don't know how much covid's affecting shipping from the dhgate site, but there are plenty of cheap bangers there; I got a banger/cap/pearl set from them a while back that works fine...

    in Troy's video, when it's in what he calls 'disco mode', its lights spin around like a UFO - that would draw almost as much attention in a public place as heating up a vapcap with a torch.

    Portable HASH/HASJ Vaporizer (no pen)

    it's really best as a session vape, but you can sort of fake it: - put in a tiny load, e.g. .02-.04g (hash or flower). place the liquid pad on top - heat to the highest temp (210ºC). once it reaches temp, let it 'cook' another ~30 sec. - turn off the mighty, take a big hit. you might get a 2nd...

    Portable HASH/HASJ Vaporizer (no pen)

    from the S&B website: "The battery-powered MIGHTY uses a patented combination of full hot air convection heating and additional conduction"

    Portable HASH/HASJ Vaporizer (no pen)

    I don't know the mighty's conduction/convection ratio, but I've never heard anyone say it's mostly conduction. with bubble hash I start getting vapor at relatively low temps, e.g. 170ºC, increase temp as needed. hard hash needs higher temps, but not necessarily 210º. definitely slow draw.

    Portable HASH/HASJ Vaporizer (no pen)

    I vape hash - hard and 'bubble' - in my mighty all the time, think it's great. hard hash is more challenging: I have to cut it up into tiny pieces, put it under the liquid pad - but it works fine. with both types I put ~.05g under the liquid pad. the mighty's very efficient, so putting in more...

    Cannabis News

    precisely. states that have legalized cannabis have different regulations so trustworthiness of test results is an issue (I noticed that one producer's products here in wa. all seemed to have the exact same THC % - if that isn't fishy, what is?). I imagine the states are watching each other to...

    Cannabis News

    agreed that 'poorly regulated concentrates' is a real issue when it comes to teens (and I predict that it'll be getting plenty of press, for better or worse), but I'm pretty sure word-of-mouth would be plenty adequate (without marketing) for teens to learn about concentrates - the mere existence...

    Cannabis News

    I read the article. I think it's important to point out that it's about concentrate use among teens, figured the media would 'discover' the phenomenon sooner rather than later. (I don't know about you, but I've often wondered how I or my friends would've responded if 80%+ concentrates had been...

    Sativa lovers

    I tried a new (to me) 100% sativa the other day: vietnam black (kiona). extremely energizing, extremely mental - the only thing I can think of that's comparable is green crack, but green crack's too jittery for me; vietnam black's more psychedelic - racing thoughts, like a brainstorm.

    Puffco Proxy

    yes. the device itself shouldn't get as hot as the DTV, and the longer stem should make for cooler vapor. adding a longer drip tip to the DT5 would make it even less portable than it already is. in a way, the proxy's like a banger without water - but portable. I use a mighty for concentrates, so...

    Puffco Proxy

    I don't own either, but it seems to me from reading quite a bit on the DT reddit that the V5 isn't really portable (gets too hot, too fast, is best with water), so if this thing makes cooler vapor than the V5, doesn't get overly hot, it could be nice - price aside. it seems like portable...

    Smoke VS vapor : couch locking

    I wonder if you might not be finishing what's in your bowl. do you vape until it tastes like burnt popcorn? supposedly the more couch-lock cannabinoids are the ones that vaporize at the highest temperatures, so if you're stopping before it's done, that could explain what you're describing.
