These are the generic qualities if you look into each you'll find out more. I mainly put it up for a temp guide

Is there an instruction guide someplace for how to pull out a particular oil like thcv?

Abstract
Two isolation procedures for Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinolic acid A (THCA), the biogenetic precursor in the biosynthesis of the psychoactive Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in the cannabis plant, are presented. Two flash chromatography systems that can be used independently from each other were developed to separate THCA from other compounds of a crude cannabis extract. In both systems UV absorption at 209 and 270 nm was monitored. Purity was finally determined by HPLC-DAD, NMR and GC-MS analysis with a focus on the impurity THC. System 1 consisted of a normal phase silica column (120 g) as well as cyclohexane and acetone--both spiked with the modifier pyridine--as mobile phases. Gradient elution was performed over 15 min. After the chromatographic run the fractions containing THCA fractions were pooled, extracted with hydrochloric acid to eliminate pyridine and evaporated to dryness. Loading 1800 mg cannabis extract yielded 623 mg THCA with a purity of 99.8% and a THC concentration of 0.09%. System 2 was based on a reversed-phase C18 column (150 g) combined with 0.55% formic acid and methanol as mobile phases. A very flat gradient was set over 20 minutes. After pooling the THCA-containing fractions methanol was removed in a rotary evaporator. THCA was re-extracted from the remaining aqueous phase with methyl tert-butyl ether. The organic phase was finally evaporated under high vacuum conditions. Loading 300 mg cannabis extract yielded 51 mg THCA with a purity of 98.8% and a THC concentration of 0.67%.

Oh you were looking for something you could do, or the home chemist.... realistically not gonna happen

Ok, I guess we'll wait for some college students to play with that. So, would your best suggestion be for me to grow some African sativa, harvest when clear to cloudy and make hash (with bubble bags)?

Yup and I believe you will be very pleased

This is simple pharmacology.

Duration of the high is going to depend on

1. Which cannabinoids you get
2. In what concentrations and
3. How your body processes them.

#3 is related to your individual genetics, personal tolerance, body fat content, and other factors, and there isn't much you can do to change these things in the short term.

#2 is mostly about dosing. If you want to stay high longer, take more drug and/or keep redosing. If you want less duration of effect, take less and stop.

#1 is mostly about WHAT you're smoking. Strain is the most important part of that, but how you take in the cannabinoids also matters. EG smoking will give you different cannabinoid ratios than vaping, and even vaping at different temps can change the ratios of which cannabinoids you're taking in . Eating, again, is a totally different game.

In GENERAL CBD acts to mute the intensity of the high, but also increase its duration.

If you want a short-lived high, you'll want to avoid indica/kush strains with CBD and go for more sativa-heavy things without CBD.

Also, as mentioned, THCV is responsible for a short lived, but very intense, almost psychedelic high, so if that's what you're after, you have to find THCV rich strains.

As I'm eating my lunch today, I'm thinkin, wouldn't it be nice to just get high for an hour...

Try harvesting early when the Trichomes are just clear.... short high.

African Malawi is high in THCV. But I wouldn't waste harvesting this queen early. It's too good. Dude should just get a vape pen and do one toke before he eats lunch.
Then punch himself in the bean bag to sober up! Just seeing if your paying attention. lol

Seems to me I should be able to clip a few buds off early and then compare what I get with the rest of the plant. Does anybody try to pull resin off a plant before it's harvested.
