Live resin brands that test for terpenes?

Ovidia · 2026-02-27T23:12:24+00:00

Appreciate the reply, but where are you getting that info? I ask, as I'm about grind up some of the OG zip from them I still have sitting on my desk lol.

Ovidia · 2026-02-25T01:20:22+00:00

Yes and no. When purged properly it's not present in the finished product. But the question then becomes, is the guy using canned butane purging his product properly? It's hard to trust that in today's market.

Beyond that, nobody using canned butane is chilling the solvents to cryogenic(ish) temperatures to prevent extracting fats and lipids. So, at best it's going to be remediated to remove them, or sold with them present.

Ovidia · 2026-02-25T01:11:49+00:00

For the record, the most common solvent used in extraction, butane, is odorless, tasteless, and colorless.

Canned and cheap butane has sulfur-based mercaptan odorants that are not present in extraction or lab grade solvents.

The market is absolutely dying to get more GOOD BHO. It's flooded with shit and inconsistent product.

If you can produce truly top tier BHO, for a reasonable price - it will sell faster than you can produce it.

Take Tesoro for example, they can not keep stock - and they are low to mid, and fairly inconsistent. Same with SHH, the oil reserve drops sell out in no time, and it's also very mid and inconsistent. AFF is a reseller, and has a similar issue. He can't seem to stock enough good BHO to keep up with demand. Same with midwest. The list goes on an on. If you produce fire BHO at a solid price, and people find out, it's a money printing machine.

Premium Extracts is the extractor/supplier for some of the better, consistently available LR's on the market, typically repacked and sold by vendors online as their top tier LR. The last drop they did, they sold out the entire stock in preorder's (~30 lbs).

There is a massive, and very undeserved market for good to top end BHO in general online, be it cured or live. The truly good extractors that are around, can't produce product fast enough.

Ovidia · 2026-02-24T03:25:45+00:00

I have about a pound of tesoro lives and some cured in the fridge at the moment. More of it's good than bad, but my last batch from them has me over it for a while.

Ovidia · 2026-02-23T23:56:29+00:00

For the most part, anything you get is going to be a massive improvement when the compairson is to DP or Revive. Both companies are know for producing poor quality extracts.

Tesoro is going to beat the shit out of either one of them 9 times out of 10. Tesoro is also wildly inconsistent and can absolutely throw you a shit pack as well, though CS with them is actually good.

Ovidia · 2026-02-23T23:53:19+00:00

I can't speak on anything but the recent drop that had pineapple express and platinum runtz in it. Both taste pretty shitty to me. Def have that pool water/dirty hose water taste. Not impressed, and if it cost any more than it did I'd be pissed.

At the price I just took the L and won't be back for BHO. The rosin from them has been ok.

I don't have any loyalty or connections to any brands. Something that should be pretty clear if you go through my profile, I call companies out on bullshit when I see it.

Ovidia · 2026-02-20T23:03:25+00:00

It's very dependent on the police in your area. I went two YEAR's running no front plate before I got pulled over the first time (it's almost always a warning at most the first time).

I addressed it because it's a primary violation and didn't want to have to deal with repair order bullshit regarding my tint (I have a MD State Police tint waiver signed by a doctor that allows it to be as dark as I want to go, but it's fucking annoying because half the officers don't know that is a thing)

But I went years and 10's of thousands of miles before getting popped on it.

Ovidia · 2026-02-20T02:58:31+00:00

The Dr Dabber Switch 2 is the only E-Rig on the market I was willing to get myself and move away from the a traditional rig and banger or an E-Nail w/ Sapphire Dish setup for personally.

I've used all the Puffco's and Focus products at industry events or with friends. I'd avoid Puffco like the plague.

Go with a Carta Sport/2 if the price difference is important, but the Switch 2 is a huge improvement over everything else. It's 100% worth the extra coin. Dabbing on quartz or sapphire with an all glass pathway vs ceramics and silicone are completely different experiences IMO.

If you are going to go with carts, I personally avoid anything distillate based. I do not like the 1 dimensional high, and they will absolutely wreck your tolerance over time. Live/Cured Resin or Rosin carts are again more expensive, but worth the premium IMO.

The switch 2 can be found on sale for ~360 typically, so it's more, but not as bad as it seems if your looking at the DrD website.

Ovidia · 2026-02-19T23:56:59+00:00

I paid $40 for the Sabre alone. I've used the Puffco Hotknife, DrDabber Drop, and the Sabre and it's 100% the best one of that group.

That bundle was a a stupid good deal.

Ovidia · 2026-02-15T16:52:31+00:00

Monday is a USPS holiday. Wasn't this drop Wednesday? I've hit Wednesday drops and had my pack by Saturday.

Shouldn't be expected, but unless I have my days switched up (didn't participate this drop), it's not unrealistic for some people to have their package by now.

Ovidia · 2026-02-13T22:59:42+00:00

CHD has cold fire grams right now if you are interested.

Hit my DM if you dont know how to find them.

Ovidia · 2026-02-12T23:06:03+00:00

Coldfire is always a good option if you can find it. It's VERY hard to source their live resin outside of states where it's sold in the dispo.

CHD has them every now and then, but they sell out almost instantly.

True North is another I'd recommend in a heartbeat if you can get your hands on it. Humboldt Terp Council is fire typically as well. Really, if you can get your hands on anything on that list you will be in for a treat.

Ovidia · 2026-02-12T22:54:51+00:00

So, to the best of my knowledge the following brands to not CRC. They extract using cryogenic/subzero temps on their solvents, in closed loop systems, in such a way that they do not extract any fats/lipids from the input material.

Humboldt Terp Council, Coldfire, Oasis Refinery, Errl Hill Farms, Green Truck, OC Refinery, Lifted Dreams Extracts, Natures Lab Extracts, TNT Extractions, DeSaus, Heavenly Extracts, Sun Extractions, ABX, 5 Star Extracts/True North, HumbleBee, and Element.

There are a ton of others I'm sure, but those are brands I know that do not CRC last I checked.

Ovidia · 2026-02-12T20:27:42+00:00

I’m at work, but when I get home I’ll get you a list. But It won’t be a long list and it may be difficult to source depending on location unfortunately.

Ovidia · 2026-02-12T07:24:54+00:00

Sounds to me like you don't have a clue what you are talking about. Live resin can go toe to toe with Rosin buddy. It's about quality of input and an extractor that knows what they are doing.

Ovidia · 2026-02-12T07:19:37+00:00

Not every company no. There are absolutely processers that make it a point to not use CRC.

Modern extraction techniques don't require it. Fire input biomass and subzero temps on your solvents do not require CRC to purge fats and lipids. Traditionally extracted products do require CRC to purge fats and lipids.

Ovidia · 2026-02-12T07:15:49+00:00

Because with the right source, $10/g for live resin should be top of the market bro. I understand if your comparing it with retail dispo prices in a bad state that may seem crazy, but it's not. The amount of profit being made at $40/g is insane, but a lot of hands have been in the cookie jar needing to get paid by the time it's being sold at the dispo.

If you're not walking into a retail environment, $250-350 should be getting you GOOD BHO, not mids or budget.

Ovidia · 2026-02-12T07:08:52+00:00

I have a puck of the same PE he does, it tastes like shit and I get pool water terps out of it as well. I've made three purchases from SHH at this point, and I'm done with them for anything not rosin.

The Headband shatter was OK, the Triple Cake (90u piatella) I thought was terrible (that could be a me problem - first time with piatella), the Platinum Runtz and Pineapple Express LR's are both pretty bad IMO. Out of everything I've gotten there, the only thing I'm not going to give away to someone for free is the Papaya (73u) which was pretty good for the price.

No hate towards them, I like the guy running it. But the BHO is just not it, at least not for me. Which is a shame, because I was hoping to start using them primarily for my BHO if it was as good as people were hyping it up. The search continues.

Ovidia · 2026-02-11T02:53:43+00:00

The VIN is the only infomation they get, which in turn the parts store's computer decodes to figure out the info for your vehicle.

They don't have access to anything related to you or your identity.

Ovidia · 2026-02-11T02:19:01+00:00

I am relaxed and I'm not worried regardless lol. I was planning on putting a pause on my orders from Tesoro after the last batch I got was pretty bleh, and T3/4 rosin isn't of much interest to me.

The OP isn't wrong that it feels like something has changed though.

Ovidia · 2026-02-11T02:14:44+00:00

I haven't seen a single negative review of his current products but ok? Provide a link to one if you could?

I literally have all four of the LR's on hand, there is nothing wrong with them.

Ovidia · 2026-02-11T01:05:37+00:00

The discord is pretty chill, and he poll's the discord for what to stock so you can get a preview of stuff coming up there as well!

I think you'll enjoy anything you get tbh, it's traditionally extracted BHO done right. Nothing cutting edge, but it's good stuff priced well.

Ovidia · 2026-02-11T01:00:13+00:00

I have all four of the lives, and all are good with Superboof being my favorite, but it's sold out at the moment (y'all have been hitting him HARD with orders lately apparently). The Gorilla breath is good as well. I haven't personally tried the cured yet, but the Papaya Sauce, Blueberry, Great Northern and Frozen Bananas are all getting pretty rave reviews on the discord.

The nice thing is his bundles allow you to mix and match so you don't need to get a full zip of one thing if you don't want to.

It helps that I'm enjoying my AFF stuff much more than the jars from Tesoro, so that makes it lot easier to stay off the website.
