What canabinoids extract out of 99% iso ?

I wasnt sure where to post this thread given its about extractions. They should really make a page for extractions.

Is it THC alone that only gets extracted when using 99% iso as a solvent? Or do a whole bunch of different canabinoids extract aswell ? I was told by a friends only THC come out .

I couldnt find any litterature on google on this topic.

I'm interested as well, will keep checking here, hopefully someone knows more than me.

all I know is iso extracts enough of whatever it does to get me quite high hahaha

THC is not the only cannabinoid which gets extracted from the plant material into the solvent.
It is the resin itself which is trapped in the liquid (solvent), so you do not "lose" any cannabinoids by extraction if that's your worry.

The canabinoids represented in the particular strain you are growing will also be present in whatever extract you make from said strain.

The low temperature of the solvent crystallizes the resin and because of the low vaporizing temperature of the solvent it allows fairly quick vaporization of the solvent itself, leaving behind the resin.
The nature of the substances used in resin extractions means that precautions should be taken as the fumes can build up and cause serious accidents but that is another matter.
Purity of the solvent used is also a major factor but I'm sure you've already read about this, if not, I can elaborate.

^ Thanks man. I see what your saying. the whole trich gets extracted so all of its contents are in the end product. Cool!

(SOrry its beeen so long lol )
