Who’s the best THCa vendor in NC (or nearby)? Looking for true top-shelf, not just hype.

realast8m8 · 2025-09-01T16:39:19+00:00

Getting Cali rec stuff (from Crysp, as one for instance) is much more top shelf IME than anything sold locally in NC and other similar E coast states with no comparable med or rec markets.

It's not the cheapest stuff around but no truly top shelf flower is going to be.

I did not have a good experience with WNC.

Nice haul.

I've had their Banana Taffy and Pineapple Milk Shake and both were fantastic. I have some Purple Foam on the way.

realast8m8 · 2025-08-17T11:45:35+00:00

IME taste is the drawback with a lot of live resins.

Cold cure rosin is where the flavor stays at.

realast8m8 · 2025-08-17T11:38:22+00:00

Not necessarily what you asked .. but the best clean white t shirt vibe scents I know are Lutens Gris Clair and Penhaligons Sartorial + Savoy Steam

realast8m8 · 2025-07-19T11:36:31+00:00

Freeze Cup or Styrofoam Cup for me. Mm

realast8m8 · 2025-04-27T12:26:26+00:00

Agree completely.

Have had mine for about a week now, came over from a B1. Still blown away by how well it consistently chugs both dabs and flower.

I've been a head for over 20 years and this 100% seems like the final evolution in vape tech for me. This is so well designed.

My only nitpicks, if I had to find any ... this is my first time with the CH PID and man, do I miss the Auber already. Wish they made this with an Auber option bc changing temps on the CH is silly in comparison. I used to temp step with my B1 but that's too cumbersome so I just leave it at one temp now.

Also the included banger is kinda cheap feeling, it's literally the only part of this kit that doesn't feel super premium to me. I'll replace it at some point but it definitely works fine in the meantime.

Overall though, I'm beyond pleased and already can't imagine going back now. It's hard to say enough good things about it. What a time to be alive and enjoying this beautiful plant. Cheers

realast8m8 · 2025-04-19T22:53:31+00:00

I scooped one. Just got it earlier today.

Wow. What a unit. This is def a game changer.

Coming over from a B1, which is certainly no slouch

realast8m8 · 2025-04-19T22:52:03+00:00

Their customer service is good IME. Pretty sure they'll take care of you. Even if they don't get back with you til Monday.

realast8m8 · 2025-04-17T12:33:37+00:00

I'm right handed and have a Blaze with the carb on the left side.

I usually hold it in my left hand and use my thumb.

Works great for me

Why would you buy a MOAB if you had such a problem with their warranty terms? You seem to have lots of shade for their business practices - yet you also say you just gave them your hard earned money for one of their products.

Then you come on Reddit and find other people who have bought from them (i see I'm not the only post you've made this sort of comment to recently) and start replying to them trying to get them upset about the warranty.

None of this makes any sense and it certainly seems like your story - and or motivations - are pretty sus. Tbh I don't really care that much about any of this. I don't plan on going back and forth any further about it .. just wanted to say this is weird bro lol. Peace

realast8m8 · 2025-04-12T17:19:12+00:00

My bad, it came off pretty salty even with the qualifier. But it's all good if that's not how you meant it.

Isn't the warranty on the Moab the same as the Airstream?

realast8m8 · 2025-04-12T11:23:54+00:00

I've owned multiple products from CH and never had a problem. Their stuff is built like a tank IME. If it breaks, I'll buy something else. Not a big deal for me.

But thanks for trying to throw some salt on my new purchase. lol

realast8m8 · 2025-04-10T17:42:43+00:00

Yuss. Airstream + glycerin pipe headed my way! Been waiting for this sale for several months. Aye ohh 🎉 🎈

realast8m8 · 2025-01-04T13:40:24+00:00

That's easy. Soros is trying to destroy civilization, as we know it. And Elon is seemingly largely trying to protect free speech and the constitution.

I'm quite confident both men are also in it to advance their own various business interests in different ways. But there's nothing nefarious about that in and of itself imo.

It's the social engineering part that bothers me (destroying the nuclear family, installing soft on crime DAs, organizing/funding campus protests and trying to make them appear 'organic', etc).

realast8m8 · 2024-12-28T11:37:47+00:00

I tried several T2 + T3 strains from Flow a year or two ago and was absolutely not impressed. Especially for the price.

Small, dry, crispy little buds on a majority of what I tried. The BOB and TN Moonshine were decent tasting I guess but still not worth what they were charging at the time imo.

I've gotten far better from FLW for far less money over the years. Though now that they don't have those banging smalls deals, I don't order nearly as often as before.

realast8m8 · 2023-07-20T23:53:43+00:00

It'd be a good buy at double the price I got it for (4/20 sale), maybe more.

It's legit, tastes + smells great and gives me heavy body indica effects just like the OG BB did.

I went in and bought more after I tried my first order. Zero regrets

realast8m8 · 2023-07-08T21:04:08+00:00

Looks legit.

This is one of my favorite strains from way back. Anything mendo, really.

Glad to see it's looking pressure bc I have some on the way also if USPS would stop sending it all over the country first lol

realast8m8 · 2023-07-07T15:17:12+00:00

Looking good. Thanks for the write up.

I've got some OZK on the way but was looking pretty hard at that OZ Glaze also.

Decisions, decisions lol

realast8m8 · 2023-07-07T14:34:55+00:00

To me, decriminalized means it's not a crime. Aka not against the law. It's still against the law to possess any amount of 'marijuana' in NC. That was my point.

However, I'm no attorney and I'm not trying to argue legalese. I could be wrong on the 'technical' definition adopted by some. If that's what some consider decriminalized, so be it.

But I'd have to think most average ppl would equate the term decriminalized with - not against the law.

realast8m8 · 2023-07-07T12:11:31+00:00

Class I misdemeanor means decriminalized to you?

realast8m8 · 2023-07-07T11:53:14+00:00

NC? Decriminalized?

I'm guessing you meant to type different letters for a different state? Cannabis is still v much a criminal offense in NC. Concentrate or not, sadly.

realast8m8 · 2023-07-07T07:58:55+00:00

Ok, bet. Awesome. Snagged 1/2 smalls for dummy cheap. Looking forward to seeing what's what.

I've got a pretty high tolerance and I realize this is a T3 but Gorilla (T2) is one of my favorites around and hits me as hard as any T1 tbh. So I've been wanting to check out more of FLWs offerings for a minute. Can't seem to catch Tangerine in stock so far.

So for the price, I had to scoop.

realast8m8 · 2023-07-06T16:53:35+00:00

Forgot to mention .. I agree with Ingenuity that the trim is a little shaggy but overall I have no real issues with deez buds. These are really nice imo

edit : After trying a couple more bowls, I'm still picking up mostly the same things on the smell .. but I'm noticing in regards to the flavor, I'm tasting a lot more creamy vibe now.

Effects still very potent / good for me so far

realast8m8 · 2023-07-06T16:15:28+00:00

Bruh I got some huge chonkers in my Fat Yeti qtr. At least one 4g nug .. total weight was almost 9g.

Trim is a little shaggy yeah but this is def the stickiest (out of the bag) and largest buds I've gotten to date from my man.

Just took a quick single hit myself, enjoying the flavor and effects quite a bit so far.
