You are smoking OIL. You are, for all intents and purposes, wrapping your lips around a fucking exhaust pipe.

Lack of competition mainly. LA has 10x the options. I can go to a half dozen spots and get fire for $25-$30 an 8th, out the door in la. By contrast, sf bay that same fire will cost you $55 to $60 plus tax. I've seen spots in sf with $90 an 8th, $100 half gram sauces, $400 canna cigars, its crazy.

I take my happy ass to burbank, grab a couple zips, eat at jimmys and bounce back to the bay. Takes 12 hours but its worth it.

What's it extracted with? Guaranteed there is residue left behind. Concentrates are no better on the lungs than smoke. In fact the long term effects are not even known while people have been smoking cannabis flower for thousands of years. Ten years from now I wouldn't be surprised to see a plethora of health problems related to the ingestion of concentrates and vaping. There is a rush to make money. Consumer safety be damned.

Heat. All you get is a residue of THC. With all the Terpenes burnt completely out of it, it's not really even pot anymore. It's very high priced because it's highly concentrated, but it's pretty much complete shit to use unless you're making edibles with it.

Doesn't sound like anything I want. I don't care for concentrates. Especially BHO. Dry ice hash is as concentrated as I want and it's produced using clean methods not by washing butane or some other nasty solvent through marijuana.

Me either.

Welcome to the world of people making choices for them selves.....Your opinions are noted.

You're also not exactly clearly informed.

BHO, when done properly and under the proper conditions, with the right equipment. Produces absolutely pure and the highest concentrate levels available.
Extraction methods to remove the "B" are effective and safe.....You just have to have the right equipment.

The next step is to remove the wax's and esters that make up parts of the trichome it's self. You now have "shatter" Results can be staggering.

Then you have the guys who simply heat and press their material and get "Rosen"....This has a good following of those enjoying concentrates for their believed idea's like yours on personal concens of what may not be removed from BHO.. Another personal choice opinion for them..

Now then. Both still retain plenty of terps if done properly....So whatever on that one.

I enjoy a dab once in a awhile (great while). It can be as close to tripping without doing acid, as you can get!
I don't care for it as a regular thing at all...Fucks your tolerance big time!

Besides, with a cpl strains being run here at over 30-33% I like the material smoke better too.

The game has changed guys , gone are the days of 400 $ ounces and hundred $ q's. These days u r lucky to see a market price of 270 $ ounces. Whats avg price in your area for a ounce? Street price or rec price
FAH!

Best quality per here..$200
Same in Chicago? $400
Same just up the coast? $250+ depends on the strain...

These are wholesale prices...

Street? add 50%

There is one place I don't like around me. They pay shit rates and argue that they can get it cheaper so I say to them, Well you get what you pay for.....Won't pay my price, piss off and smoke garbage.

Funny thing, They tend to come back in a cpl days and pay up.

Gone? Depends on your point of view..

You're right about choices. I'm glad people have plenty. Some people like concentrates some don't. I would rather just smoke a joint of some good weed. I personally don't care for concentrates. I've banned any paraphernalia that requires the use of a torch at my residence. Too hardcore for me. Plus I don' like anything that strong. I guess I'm old school. I actually enjoy picking the seeds out of crosses I make and rolling a joint just like I did back in 1979. Back then it was likely Colombian Gold or something similar. Today it is something I grew. Still it's quite nostalgic.

lol you're trippin.. Chicago prices have come down as well. Many of the struggling musicians (all different genres btw) supplement by importing bud. Street price floats 275-325 depending on how dry things are. You can get a ten pack for 28-32k. The days of the $4-500 zip are well behind us

Im with you 110%. I still remember the first time a buddy came thru with a torch.. Im like wtf? Like someone else mentioned, Ive got buddies who cant get high off a blunt of AAA because they got such a dab habit.. fuck that shit.

I use a vaporizer for my home grown herb. No added preservatives , just grind up the weed put it in the chamber and let heat do the work. I've noticed better lung health and I'm not coughing up phlegm anymore. The weed taste better (because there's no smoke) and the vapour doesn't linger or stick to my furniture like smoke does.

I agree putting anything inside your lungs besides the air we breathe isn't great for you but vaping cannabis vs smoking it is much easier on your lungs imo

People talk about price and dabs and stuff and yer at one time you guys were the goto for info and weed...

But now its largely out of your hands and it is the industry not you guys that most goto now.

Whatever they want will be the new market pressure and price their call not ours.

And the young sheeple will buy whatever it is thinking they are getting high lol. P T Barnum nailed it years ago. "There's a sucker born every minute".
