is bho the same as rick simpsons hemp oil?

The BHO caps would be used for someone going through a 2nd round of chemo, i'm worried if there is anything left from the butane it may do some harm. Anything other then BHO I would have to make my self. You said you have tried the "traditional method" for more chlorophyll yield (which I think helps with colon cancer), what is the current method you are using now?

I don't have an exact tutorial of how I've been making oil recently, basically fast washing small amounts of trim over a metal filter so the alcohol runs through quickly. This prevents the chlorophyll from being pulled out of the plant material, and leaves you with a pure amber oil, but less of it. For what your doing though since it won't be smoked only eaten, the traditional method of making Iso extract would be better I think. It will yield better, and the chlorophyll won't hurt a thing and may even help who knows. The only real difference is it will look like black goo instead of amber goo, and if you do smoke some it won't be AS smooth.

24hr soak. simple as that... you ever watched the rso videos? read the guides? his goal is for a whole extraction vs a cannabinoid extraction. He is concentrating the ENTIRE spectrum of compounds vs Only active cannabinoids

Im sorry that i need to explain it So thoroughly for you, but its blatantly obvious this is the goal behind RSO vs bho. go read.

I do not believe you understand the very very simple concept in play here. taking a substance that has many compounds within it and using a solvent, whether it be naptha, butane, hexane, etc., to isolate the compounds, IS IN FACT an extraction. Makes absolutely no difference in how you look at it. either you grasp it or not. the quality or consistency of your resulting extract will vary on account of many different variables that will only begin with the genetics you are working with, age of the flower since harvest (14-21 days critical for absolute best quality product), and, well, the very great plausibility of human error. Conceptual science is only as accurate as your understanding of the countless variables you have yet to encounter.

as the title states i was wondering if bho is the same as the oil rick simpson uses to cure skin cancer and other medical conditions?

I wish I knew. I guess the only way I will know for sure is to make the BHO myself. I have only made RSO. I have sampled BHO. One kind I sampled looked like play-dough color and texture. No offense, but I would have to say it was crap compared to my RSO. Heck, even crap compared to good finger hash too. I also tried some amber/clear colored BHO, I guess it would be considered glass. That was crap too. I am an oil snob though, I will admit that. I do believe that the clear stuff I tried was not made right or not purged correctly because I could taste a hint of butane in it. Not to mention, different strains and different growers I am sure has a very big effect on the potency considering the starting materials would be different in many ways. Until recently I did not have interest in BHO, I just assumed it was not as good as RSO. However, I just saw a picture of some BHO that looked better than any I have ever seen. I think it looked better than any concentrate that I have seen period. So, one day soon, I will make some myself, then I will know for sure.

This issue is quite important to me. I have quit smoking marijuana. I don't see any purpose in smoking anymore. I just fill up my tank style e-cigarette with RSO mixed with Propylene Glycol USP. I choose that over any buds now. Just my personal preference.
