Let's talk concentrates

[EYESORE 9001]

After a quarter-century of abstention, I am becoming aware of concentrates that exceed anything in my prior experiences. More than potency, I am concerned about health risks - especially when it comes to BHO extracts, reminding me of vitamin E additions that made people sick.

My inner space cowboy is intrigued by shatter, budder, and all the udders, but it’s pricier. The process seems cleaner, however, and my health is worth it.

Please share your experiences with concentrates, including time-tested forms like hashish.

1. I make my own oils. Love it.

I can choose what kind to make, how strong, and the best part is I don't have to inhale or buy something that I don't know what the long term effect will be.

2. I make my own edibles, vape juice, etc.

I prefer to smoke cannabis. But I make wonderful concentrates at home.
I grow my own pot; from the trim and not so pretty buds, I make everything else.
I’ve been doing this a long time and I’ve finally got it down to a science.
My vape juice, for example, is pure. I add only terpene oil to the concentrate in order to get a flowing oil.
I’ll be happy to share my methods if anyone wants to know.

3. I think the butane stuff is gone

I don't think anyone is making butane product anymore. The latest craze is heat pressed. Vaping has a slightly different effect than smoking.
