You should get off like a skyrocket then. Someone you know knows someone who smokes pot and can hook you up, or maybe direct you to a store in your area.

And now for something completely different:

What the heck is that and how do you consume it?

[He asked eagerly]
That's shatter, a cannabis concentrate that that can hit about 90% THC (I think). I'll let this hipster explain the mechanics of it, but it's not exactly what I've been doing. That dome with the stick on it in my picture is called a carb cap and it's to re-direct and reduce airflow. As soon as I get the tray cherry red I turn the torch off and set it down, stick my prepared lump of dope carefully with the pick and when I think it's about 10 seconds or so I set it in the tray and put the cap on as I start drawing. I'm not wasting big clouds like the guy in the video.
I like the ritual; reminds me of opium.

Looks like peanut brittle to me.

Yep, and some types are very brittle (hence the name shatter), but most will become a bit pliable when warmed up with the fingers. It takes on the name of the cannabis strain it's distilled from, like Nepalese

or Bubba Kush.


It doesn't take a lot of this stuff to do the trick, which is a good thing. I've cut back on smoking pot and used the Solo vaporizers for years now, but the residue from concentrates messes up the oven so bad I got a titanium nail (I have a quartz nail but it doesn't work as well) and use a torch and one of my favourite water tools.

Thanks that was interesting.
How much of that stuff messes you up? as much as was shown in the video or more? It looked like a small amount.

A bit less than this, I suppose. Maybe compare it to very strong hash.

First I've seen, but I think we all knew cannabis drinks were in development. I'm a bit skeptical but I did have marijuana wine a friend made in 1975 and it was a force to be reckoned with. In the news it says Ontario is classifying pot stores as non-essential, so I take that to mean they will be closed. At the same time, over the past few days the RCMP has been targeting some grey-market online dispensaries and bricking their websites (they did this about a month ago as well), and reportedly even grabbing some orders out of the mail. This probably wouldn't be quite as much of a problem if the bars weren't closed. The Reddit page on Canadian Mail Order Marijuana Stores (MoM's) has been blocked in Canada because of a legal request. Three guesses who requested that. Right now while we're cheering all our front-line workers including police is no time for them to be acting like a bunch of pricks.

Did everyone get their 4-20 cheques?
Just kidding, Canada isn't that good yet.

Me too. I have never done this thing at all. I've seen people get daft on it and also get rather worrisome on it. I've gained a headache from people doing it or whatever else was with it when they smoked it, but I've never ever done this thing . Maybe it was that share idea. Yuk! Maybe it was the smell , also a bit yuk!

Maybe it could have helped my Mum in later decades with her severe RA though or some rather nasty pain I used to get before that got solved with age.
