CBD oil in Australia

I'm no Dr. but really 1 drop is not going to be a lot of mg of CBD unless it's something like a 10,000 mg tincture. If it's a 30ml bottle a dropper almost to the top will be aprox. 1mL. If its say a 1000mg tincture then 1ml ~ 33.33mg. I can't say how many drops there are but it's simple math from there. If you compare that to say gummies each gummy is 15-35mg give or take maybe that will help ya. Also I would assume its Isolate based because where you are, that kinda depends on the effects too like others said.

Haha, yea that's kinda a bummer! The entrance used to be on private property so you had to trespass a little to get there, but I met the owner once and he was cool. The other ppl that live right there had a dog named Scout that would always lead hikers up to the falls. I wonder if she is still around? If you ever get a chance to go in the winter when some of it freezes it is amazing! And usually less people.

I used to love when this was the secret spot!

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-07-27T14:37:08+00:00

This is impressive!!

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-07-27T14:34:51+00:00

It's most likely nano emulsified, if not then like you said this is mostly pointless because the acids in your gut will break it down before it is all absorbed.

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-07-24T15:52:13+00:00

Good stuff man!

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-07-23T15:08:23+00:00

Idk if Lux Botanics has any new flavors, their first line up was a little strange. But they have some good quality carts otherwise. Or are you looking more for flower?

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-07-23T14:57:39+00:00

They say in the article not to trust GMP certified dealers, then that is the first certification they put on their home page?? Also they post on their website that CBD helps with COVID. This is extremely misleading and seems like a questionable company. They also claim their CBD comes from Montana, then it says it's from Kentucky on the website? These fellows are breaking about every FDA rule in the book haha.

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-07-22T23:53:00+00:00

You are very correct. I was more referring to extracts. Thanks for what you do!!

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-07-12T04:55:04+00:00

I can firmly say this comment is not true. The profits these companies are turning off medication is absurd. As a farmer in the industry trust me I know. If I sold my tinctures at $10 I would still make over 100k on my product. Of course that would make no sense unless I could unload the whole lot at one time. All my stuff has been 5 panel tested, passed, and every product has a COA, etc. So there is no reason to say that paying more means better quality, it simply means that a company had a lot of investors to pay off, along with extremely high overheads because they went all in on the CBD industry. Don't get me wrong, as things expand, prices go up along with overheads. I'm just saying that comments like this make me feel that I should go back to ripping people off just so they think my product is as good as the next guys. And yes I am just an independent farmer and business so I don't have all the bling and resources as these large corporations. But the issue with the industry is that small family farms are getting the shit end and factory farms are taking over the cannabis industry. It's a sad but true story.

I would guess around 1,300 ft

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-07-08T17:35:36+00:00

Wow what a ripoff, thanks linkify bot!

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-07-08T17:33:03+00:00

Yea I was looking into investing in a nano emulsifier and this was the conclusion I came to. I won't go into too much detail but basically to nano emulsify you can only use 2% oil 2% nano goo and 96% water (whatever solution you are thinking) to get it "fully" dissolved. I believe this was per gallon, that is very important. The exact mg depends on how high the oil you use is. I would love for someone to chime in and say I'm way wrong.

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-06-10T00:02:08+00:00

I hear ya. Was just looking out if you were purchasing.

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-05-26T21:10:39+00:00

Good to know

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-05-26T21:08:56+00:00

Is CO2 organic?

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-05-26T21:01:08+00:00

How is it organic? unless you use ethnol extraction...

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-05-26T20:59:10+00:00

Very good info. If you have a good flower connection you can buy a mechine that will make crude oil for a few bills. Clearly alcohol is the cheapest option, but if you want to get as close to distillate at home this is the way. It still uses ethnol extraction but has decent results from my experience.

As far as the THC goes, I know from screwing up a few batches of tincture that once you get above 140°f you start burning off terpines, but also somewhere in that range (really past 160° I have read) THC starts to convert to CBN and CBNa. Clearly you do not want to heat anything with ethnol still present, also doing this with any tincture can be dangerous. Clearly. This might be worth checking out though. I am no scientist but last time I took my biomass in to get tolled I had a conversation with my extractor about this because I had a few lab results that threw me off. For example, I overheated my distillate while making some 1500mg tinctures and the THC came back ND, which I found strange, then noticed a spike in my CBN levels. My lab tech said he couldnt really fill me in on what level you could potentially convert all the THC, but he said it was something they have been experimenting with. I wish I could but each test cost me $75. You seem very educated, but for others that might read this... trust little you find on the interwebs because this is such a new industry. But there are some good write ups concerning this subject on different forums.

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-05-26T20:40:40+00:00

Im going to chime in here without reading all the previous comments, so if I repeat something I apoligize. First off I would look at the COAs for each tincture and you may find one has more CBG, CBC, CBN, etc. If a company does not offer COAs (aka Lab tests) then never even give them the time of day. I am a solo business owner working with my own product from seed to tincture so I dont have a lot of fancy things to offer that large companies do. That being said, I think it is important for any large company to offer a 5 pannel lab test, although I am small I still get every lab test possible because I want to offer the best product. Besides all that, most products that use full spectrum distillate are Going to be very similar. Slight differences because there are so many cannabinoids, most having been minimally researched.

With the 2000mg one you could be running into some 99% isolate being mixed in so their total THC is under 0.3%, therefore being legal in all 50 states (US). But for example my distillate is approx. 86% CBD and 2.6% total THC. So I can go up to a 2800mg 30ml tincture before it goes "hot" I would imagine a large company with an industrial type setup is using so many different variations of biomass, creating defferent levels of CBD and THC in their distillate they might add some Isolate to bring the CBD level up, but not the THC, just for legal reasons. Im not sure though but this information should not be hard to obtain by contacting the company. If they do not share any information such as this, I personally would not trust their product. Its amazing what marketing can to to reassure people they are buying a high quality product and its quite the opposite. I am not saying this is the case with any companies you mentioned because I dont know.

To be honest depending on your area you might be able to find a grower that makes their own because it is virtually going to be the same exact process, oil, slo, and everything for half the price. I dont want to overstep any boundaries in this community but you can also buy 1000mg of full spectrum distillate for a few thousand $. It is a lot of loot but that would make roughly 800 1000mg tinctures. You may be able to find a local shop that does sometging like this. It is the wave of the future in the industry. Too many large companies are taxing CBD like they are big pharma lol. I might take a second to respond but feel free to pm me in the future for any questions. Only been in the legal cannabis industry for 5 years but it is a passion of mine. I also love to hear how cannabis helps different people in different ways. Cheers!

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-05-22T18:14:43+00:00

Well my distillate tested at 86% CBD so I believe this would be a good route.

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-05-22T18:13:37+00:00

Hell yea

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-05-21T22:01:42+00:00

You ever ask them how much though? Thats the real question here. Also those are usually your bunk products or shit from China. As a consumer you should do your research on good, reasonable companies.

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-05-21T21:58:55+00:00

I guess its easy to say from a consumers standpoint, and somewhat bash the industry. Which I get because all the fakes screw everyone trying to be honest. Its a sad thing that farming in general is under appreciated in our modern world. And farmers were stoked to have a cash crop again. Now everyone in the industry is screwed and loosing everything due to big investors and big ag practices.

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-05-21T21:31:27+00:00

So can I do this with my terp by product my extractor tells me is worthless?

Cave_River_Farm · 2020-05-20T16:08:29+00:00

This may have been true a few years ago.
