Really interesting article with some nice new info, among other bits it was nice to get a confirmation that THC is more soluble in saturated fatty acids than in unsaturated, there are maybe some interesting things to be deduced from that... :)

I tend to disagree with the statement regarding quality as you can for example make a killer Boeuf Bourguignon from an absolutely undrinkable​, cheap wine. If you are doing / using some form of extract the quality of the material this is made from is also less significant, provided that the quality of the extract it self is good enough.

Given that the article argues for testing both the ingredient (i.e. whatever THC rich source you are adding to "medicate") and the final product for potency, your main concern would probably be to ensure that you have no contaminants or adulterants, and for the higher end off course preservation of flavors and other nuances, not if the original THC source was a good smoke or not.

There is off course often somewhqt of a correlation between some of these factors, but it isn't a 1to1 causal dependency and it is a bit misleading to say that you need top quality bud of a good "smoking quality" to make proper edibles, as many lower grade, but still THC containing residues and other materials that are not suitable for smoking would do nicely as a source for the HC for edibles. This is even more he case if you use the proprietary technology they mention to get rid of some of the he more challenging bits wrt flavor etc.

Most edibles here are distilled co2 oil ,with no taste around 90thc
In black market gummies HBO oil or my favourite shatter hash bars 350mg.
Problem here only aloud to sell in 10mg in bars ,gummies ..sucks :mrgreen: But as legalization drags on hopefully that will change..did math on Dutch space cakes ...around 50mg for the red velvet :mrgreen:

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: That was a very interesting and super funny video! Completely agree with the friend who at the end of the video commented that he would love such a dinner with only people "like them" (i.e. with enough of a tolerance and / or the right mindset to "ride the wave" and enjoy). We would love to be at such a dinner, and could off the top of our heads easily fill that table and probably another with ACD'ers who would fit right in that category! :D
