i recently heard this is a way to test THC content. it makes sense but the math i did came out with a really high number.


using a buzznn bee honey extractor, new filter and 5 times filtered Vector butane.
20 grams of BONE DRY herb
herb was washed with butane, butane was allowed to evaporate for 24 hours in a warm dry room.
4.3 grams of honey.

4.3 divided by 20 = 21 1/2%


this # is said to acutally be low because all the thc is not fully washed away.

the butane was tested by spraying into a clean bowl by itself and left to evaporate. full evaporation leaving NO film or residue. filter was new. resembles brown paper bag material so only fully burst trichromes pass thru.
weight starting with stems. stems were removed after weighing.

does this sound right?

Hmmm can't say that I know much abot oil extraction or THC count but isn't there some other residue left on there or other substances like CBD's for instance? other than that it's the most precise ive heard someone come to explain THC count, kudos! lol

aaaaahhh those cbd's. never even thought of that. i figure with all the scientist (lol, please don't hit me) on this site someone might have some LEGENDARY way to get a good estimate.

That sounds BUNK to me, dividing by how many ounces you used. as this oil isnt just all thc, there are other butane soluable substances in the plant matter.

From what i understand the only way to find out is a lab, and an expensive process.

i work in the wine industry. they all have labs in the wineries to test sugar levels and alcohol content and nitrates and ..... maybe i can make some new friends?

sounds like it's outta my reach.

I just came up with an AMAZING way to measure THC content... I pack a bud in my bowl, fire it up, take a couple tokes....If I get high...GOOD 2 GO! Sorry couldnt resist...that whole pi times x squared is too much for me lmao!
