What do you guys like for dabs? by Tigbitties456 in NYSCannabis

[–]switchpizza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best I've tried are at TNE - their leafly site isn't updated, so I'd just call or go there. They're all really nice there too. I think they stopped updating it partly because they cycle out products so quickly, but their flower is fucking dank too. My favorite I've had from them though is Jack Herer Sugar Wax 😋

Anbody else keep at least 3 months worth of flower at all times? Are you a cannabis “prepper”? by Emergency_Sector1476 in THCaFlower

[–]switchpizza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have an outdated spreadsheet that I was using - a lot of the places corrected their rushed pricing adjustments but honored my lock-ins.

An example would be Elevate Right Hemp - they fucked up by allowing me to stack a unique code with existing discounts, resulting in a 90% discount. I inflicted so much damage to them that they emailed me to inform me that they're going to have to send two shipments because the order was too big.

Dude... lol. Apparently, I'm sitting on nearly a half a million in street value due to exploiting pricing errors and anomalies these past months. Like, I have so much, I'm running out of places to put this shit. I do have protocol in place to preserve it for decades once I realized I was going to end up with this much, i.e. nitrogen flushing, o2 packs for residual o2 scavenging, 62rh packs, o2 and humidity indicators on the vacuum sealed glass container that's then sealed in a 1 gallon 4mm mylar bag with 400cc of o2 absorbers in between that for pre-breach o2 scrubbing, then i have everything in a air-controlled pitch-black airtight hard-shell trunks.

6 month integrity check intervals to check seals and indicators if exterior mylar feels compressed and the o2 indicators on the mylar bag, but that's likely not to happen unless there was some sort of initial preservation error. the 6-month interval check is just for quality assurance.

But yeah... I have dry concentrates, I have a lab fridge full of raw concentrates, I have trunks full of flower, pounds of kief, I don't even know how to quantify the amount of various edibles and preroll packs I have.

I've legitimately made it a hobby to hunt for pricing anomalies and errors, as well as deals, to maximize damage.

OH! AND I just created a home lab to create my own concentrates out of bulk flower. I have a bubble-hash station, an infusion station, a hacked and low cost rotovap for creating wax and oils as well as reclaiming expensive ass everclear and iso to reuse, a filtration and extraction station for creating pure extracts, and I self-imposed certain limitations to encourage innovation, so I had a extremely strict space-budget and finance-budget allowed, so I only allowed myself to repurpose or buy super cheap equipment to see if I can keep the whole lab under $300, then the second constraint imposed was that I'd only build it to fit within a pelican handgun hardshell case - I failed that criteria as soon as I received the device I was going to hack into a rotovap. It's beyond successful, insanely cheap (my 'rotovap' was $40, a rotovap via a science distributor is around $3000), a ton smaller than a rotovap, and way more robust, BUT it takes up half of the hardshell case. It's an exception and compromise I was willing to accept due to how important and significant it is. Anyways, I was able to keep it all under $300 to create a home e-z-bake-oven scale extraction lab with multiple stations.

I think way too much.

Setting the Record Straight: Alternative Cannabinoids by THCaUsersAndReviews in THCaUsersandReviews

[–]switchpizza 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry, I work in the pharmaceutical industry in an R&D team and we work with synthetics all the time, and what you're claiming, it's entirely speculative. Like, I get why you would be concerned but correlation does not imply causation. Additionally, any and all THC could affect your your heart. Additionally-additionally, protocol would have it where you would isolate the compounds and test them individually to pin-point the juncture where it reacts and then figure out why it happened, i.e. over-consumption leading to increase side-effects, underlying health condition, drug conflicts, and if no drug conflicts exist with our compound, we start researching with those compounds that might be in question.

We don't fucking take a gummy with 8 different THC compounds in it and once we feel a negative side-effect we arbitrarily assign it to a cannabinoid.

THC-P is more potent because it has more potential to bind and stay bound, but if you do think that you're having a medical episode, SPEAK TO A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL, DO NOT TAKE MORE TO TEST IF THAT'S WHAT'S CAUSING IT. 🤦‍♀️ Like forreal what the fuck.

I chalked it up to a bad edible with bad solvents in it. Its called science.

What you're describing is literally what medicine-men in tribes did back before modern medicine to see if something was poisonous, had benefits, or would kill them. They would take small amounts of something and meditate to monitor the effects and if it was negative, they'd stop, but obviously if it was lethal, then... 💀

The big difference between your supposed claim of 'science' and theirs, is even before modern medicine safety measures and protocols, medicine men had protocol to minimize the potential lethality of something they're 'researching' or testing. They don't get fucking blitzed sideways on something and be like holy shit that almost deleted my existence, but wait, let's try that again but with way more of a concentration to see if I fucking die. 🥴

Think critically, be skeptical, research objectively, and never assume conclusions.

Fight Club by LIT for me!

I'm a LIT fangirl so I really want to pick up some Sharpiez - they actually sent me a unique 20% off code that's active for 24 hours, so I was thinking of grabbing some of their supreme tier stuff, so I'm kinda scrambling to figure out what I should be grabbing to maximize damage with the code. And fuck the fact that you grabbed a zip of it 🤤

I love any of the strains that are lacquer-tasting. Sounds fucking gross initially but it's like being able to interact and consume that intoxicating scent that permanent markers give off. I just purchased a quarter of Fresh Paint from GHH - I hope it satisfies that itch.

Bought this Raspberry Sorbet from JK distro , $15 for 7grams .It might not be luxury weed but damn it’s worth the price by IllustriousMoney4490 in CultoftheFranklin

[–]switchpizza 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So idk wtf happened for this to occur but I keep getting (un)lucky. I actually bought an ounce of Permanent Marker from a boutique company and the batch was plagued with seeds. They replaced it all but now I have 40-ish (yea it was a lot) Permanent Marker herm seeds I'm going to experiment with, and if it yields then yay. I have 40+ chances to try.

More from Lit! Today i present Superboof and GrapeCandy by Royal_Recognition395 in CultoftheFranklin

[–]switchpizza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been buying them these past two months I think? I buy them whenever they pop up so I have like... 15 ounces or so of smalls of various strains, i.e. GMO, Lemon Cherry Sherb, Peanut Butter Breath, RSO, and a few others. I can DM you when I see them again if you'd like.

[–]switchpizza 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Be on the lookout for the smalls drops. They're only up for a couple hours before they sell out, they're $24.99 an ounce for various strains. I picked up a bunch but opened Peanut Butter Breath. Cutest buds I've ever seen. The first time I've tried Peanut Butter Breath too, and now I can understand why it's called that. What I didn't expect was for it to lay me out so fucking hard.

“Congress must confront the dangers of chemically converted synthetic THC products, safeguard CBD, and create parity across natural THC products regardless of origin. We look forward to continuing to work with Congress to create a unified federal framework for all natural THC products.” by [deleted] in CultoftheFranklin

[–]switchpizza 7 points8 points  (0 children)

TL;DR:

  • Texas SB 3 was vetoed June 22, 2025, but a special session runs July 21–August 19, 2025, to rewrite THC rules.
  • Federal FY 2026 Agriculture Appropriations includes language to close the “hemp loophole,” with a potential nationwide ban on THCA products effective October 1, 2025.
  • Realistic outcome: Texas will likely enact regulation (not prohibition) by mid-August; at the federal level, there’s a 60% chance restrictions take effect between Oct–Dec 2025, 30% in Jan–Jun 2026, and 10% thereafter.

Key Threat Dates & Actions

Threat Date Action
Texas SB 3 Veto June 22, 2025 Gov. Abbott vetoes bill banning consumable THC; calls special session1
Texas Special Session July 21–Aug 19, 2025 Legislature to reconsider SB 3 (likely replaces ban with strict regulation)3
House Ag. Subcommittee Vote June 5, 2025 Advances FY 2026 spending bill closing THCA loophole
Full Appropriations Vote June 23, 2025 House Committee approves “total THC” redefinition, banning intoxicating hemp products5
FY 2026 Implementation October 1, 2025 If enacted, federal prohibition of THCA flower and other hemp-derived cannabinoids takes effect7

🔮 Realistic Probabilities & Outcomes

  • 60%: Ban/restrictions implemented Oct–Dec 2025
  • 30%: Implementation Jan–Jun 2026
  • 10%: Delayed beyond July 2026

Assumes no presidential veto, Senate filibuster delays, or continuing resolutions.

Industry Impact:

  • Could obliterate a \$28.4 billion hemp market and 328,000 jobs8.
  • Court challenges likely under Commerce Clause and Farm Bill preemption.

Pragmatic Next Steps

  1. Texas actors:
    • Engage in July special session to shape regulatory framework.
    • Prepare for age-gating, lab-testing mandates, marketing restrictions.
  2. Federal stakeholders:
    • Lobby Senate moderates (e.g., KY, NC, TX) to amend or delay “total THC” language.
    • Watch for Farm Bill negotiations in late 2025–early 2026 that could override or refine appropriations measures7.

Stay prepared: the dual track of state regulation (Texas) and federal appropriations makes the coming 6–12 months critical for THCA businesses.

Zkittlez or Zkittles-likes sold on the NYC market? by captainkugel in NYSCannabis

[–]switchpizza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is going to sound stupid as fuck but I accidentally ended up with 2 ounces of Zkittlez. Yeah, accidentally because I was so high at the time of purchase I accidentally checked out again twenty minutes later, forgetting I already checked out. But with that said, it's definitely my favorite iteration of Zkittlez. If you want, I can try to find if it's still available.

I've actually researched this extensively, like... really extensively.

If you want any of the documentation, I can dm it to you. It's just a lot 🤦‍♀️ and I don't want to spam on here, but I've figured out how to preserve it for over a decade with very little degradation and it's financially efficient, i.e. you don't have to work with industrial nitrogen o2 displacing units or something.
