Last year I bought lozenges from a different dispensary and they sucked. It was like they sat around for a long time and lost their potency ... but most likely never had it to begin with. Your reply is one of the best I've ever seen on one of my posts. good information. It's a good thing to shed light on trickery in the MJ biz. I harken back to old dealer days and the fuck job that always came along with that pain in the ass situation.

Thanks! I like having real interactions on steemit. Yeah the losenges were old or the product it was made with was old. Not all THC is equal, it can be degraded with light and heat. Just because it's says 100 mg of THC, doesn't mean it's not degraded THC. Prices will drop as competition grows in the industry, but right now despensaries have huge profit margins. If you can find someone to buy fresh trim from that would be the way to go. Good fresh trim is cheaper than flower but sometimes has just as much sugar perfect for coconut oil or BHO
I researched BHO and find it very intriguing, but one of the sites warned it was dangerous. Not sure entirely why. maybe it's the combustable part or making it wrong part that will kill me :)
Yeah it can be. The dangerous part is the purging of the BHO. The horror stories you hear are usually amateurs using a hot plate and vacuume or something similar to purge because they don't have a proper oven. If you are just blasting for edible's, and not smoke, then just purging it in the open is ok. There is more residuals left in the product but it's not really harmful to eat. If you smoke the product it's more important to purge it with heat and pressure, which is why people jerry rig the process. It's pretty easy and cheap to do safely, but definitely not for everyone! I just prefer to make my edibles that way. I'm spoiled and have access to proper equipment through work though.
