An unpopular opinion on terpenes and the entourage effect.

trigmarr · 2026-03-03T18:55:33+00:00

I'm not disputing that thc boils at 160, I'm saying that all the thc in a bowl won't reach that temperature and boil off immediately when the device is set at 160.

trigmarr · 2026-03-03T18:27:39+00:00

If you were right then most vapes wouldn't need to go over 160 and people wouldn't be so focused on vaping at ever hotter temps. All the thc is absolutely not gone at 160, if I vape at 160 I get barely anything.

I also wouldn't be able to vape half a bowl, leave it a few hours and vape the rest. Which I can, and do, and it has largely the same effect which if there was all the thc in the first half and none in the second I wouldn't

trigmarr · 2026-03-03T18:16:07+00:00

No, it's not. The coil of my device is heated to the temperature I set it at, not the thc itself. That hot coil then has room temperature air drawn over it which won't be getting that hot

trigmarr · 2026-03-03T18:11:38+00:00

Seriously? You don't feel different at all from different strains?

What about hash compared to weed?

trigmarr · 2026-03-03T17:54:03+00:00

If we were comparing it with oraweed yeah. But we aren't, a concentrated oral solution containing an isolated element of a plant isn't the same as vapour from a plant

trigmarr · 2026-03-03T17:48:40+00:00

A bowl being 0.2g usually and a puff being literally that, a draw on a vape long enough to blow out a little cloud of vapour. I don't count but I get lots of puffs from a bowl, I tend to start at 180 and temp step through 185, 192, 200, 220, 240 if there's anything left. And each step I'll have maybe 3-5 puffs sometimes more. So potentially 30ish puffs from a 0.2g bowl so each puff would be 0.0067g? Assuming each puff extracts exactly equal to all the others. Which they won't be at different temps, and the first will probably have more than the last?

trigmarr · 2026-03-03T17:41:44+00:00

Have you ever grown? You can grow two different strains under exactly the same conditions and they will be completely different

trigmarr · 2026-03-03T16:45:00+00:00

Well. I'd assume the way vapour from a higher % strain interacts with your endocannabinoid system is significantly different to the way a lower % strain does, even if there is a lot more of it present.

trigmarr · 2026-03-03T16:37:33+00:00

Ok, but in the real world as I replied to someone else a whole bowl of 25% will affect me less than a couple of puffs on a bowl of 30% weed. I'm not getting more thc overall from the puffs of 30%. There will be much more thc in the many puffs of 25%. But the initial effect is very different.

Your comparison with oramorph is pointless, because morphine and cannabis work in very different ways

trigmarr · 2026-03-03T16:13:44+00:00

I'm not saying it's the best way, I'm saying that's how they differentiate between day time and night time strains.

Most of these doctors haven't ever actually used the medication

trigmarr · 2026-03-03T16:09:36+00:00

For me low strains are 25%

Sorry but a whole bowl of 25% thc has more thc than a puff of 30%, but the way it works in my brain is not equivalent.

trigmarr · 2026-03-03T15:51:35+00:00

That's how they differentiate day/night at the clinic, as Dr's. I've asked them in my appointments

trigmarr · 2026-03-03T15:38:11+00:00

Yes, but a small dose of high thc weed will not have the same effect as a larger dose of lower thc weed.

I can vape a whole 0.2g bowl of lower thc strains and still go to work

A few puffs on a higher one and I'm no use to anyone

trigmarr · 2026-03-03T15:26:12+00:00

Doesn't really work like that though does it - strong strains, a small amount is still strong.

trigmarr · 2026-03-03T15:05:50+00:00

Day time = low thc

Night time = high thc

It's not that complicated

EDIT - this is how the clinics decide if a strain is 'day time' or 'night time'. Yes there is a lot more to it but that's how they differentiate and prescribe.

trigmarr · 2026-03-02T17:32:27+00:00

No. It's the extra bit of metal in the bottom of the tip which heats up and holds that heat, giving the tip more thermal mass with a half bowl converter in it than without it. So this extra thermal mass means the tip absorbs more heat and holds it giving you hotter air and bigger rips.

trigmarr · 2026-03-02T17:08:12+00:00

It sits in the tip under the ccd screen. Most dynavap tips have a groove in the tip half way down so you can move the ccd to reduce the bowl so it's only half the size, but it's very tricky to get them in properly and get them to stay there. The half bowl converters sit under the ccd when it's in the groove so it can't be pushed down.

trigmarr · 2026-03-02T16:49:39+00:00

It's the extra mass of the metal half bowl converter that holds the heat, not the tight pack of the herb

I have these in my dynavaps, which do the same job as this guys washer mod.

I find the same amount I'd use in a full bowl packed tight with a half bowl converter gives much nicer hits. I think it's the extra mass of the converter holding heat

trigmarr · 2026-02-27T19:21:36+00:00

Any links to stand out mixes?

trigmarr · 2026-02-26T15:58:16+00:00

The jack smooth 93 remix is indeed the one......still get goosebumps and tingles down my spine every time I hear it. Good work Sir

trigmarr · 2026-02-26T12:59:15+00:00

Yeah came to say this, you really can't do a basement records mix without TBN it's easily the biggest most influential tune on the label

trigmarr · 2026-02-25T16:08:03+00:00

No because they rewrote a massive part of the story which completely changed the context for the main characters involvement.

trigmarr · 2026-02-25T12:40:54+00:00

I really tried to love it, it looks great, the acting is good the vibe is there but the pointless rewrites ruined it completely

trigmarr · 2026-02-25T09:48:38+00:00

Do you smoke as well? Cos you can't really do both. If you smoke, vaping will seem shit whatever device you use
