The Effects Of Super-Strength Cannabis

Windows and the front door were instantly blown off due to the power of the blast.

As the fire quickly spread, Peden and two friends managed to get out and flee the scene.

Neighbours fearing for the lives also tried to escape.

Ewa Uscitowicz and Robert Andrezjewski were knocked unconscious as smoke engulfed the building.

Outdoor homegrown of moderate strength can inspire local healthy activities, gardening, music, socialising and suchlike.

This super-strength stuff doesn't help us advance as a species.

The process to make it is dangerous I agree and shouldn't be done in someones house.
The product? a bit like oil it helps some people ingest the substance.

Shatter is a concentrate which is usually smoked as dabs. And those idiots didn't follow the rules for making concentrates, the first one of which is: DON'T DO IT IN AN ENCLOSED SPACE!!! Not even with the windows open. Do it outside or not at all. Indoors, flammable gas (usually butane if say, you're making the BHO version of a concentrate) builds up to the point that the smallest little thing will ignite it.

It's the Weed Worlds equivalent of Darwinism.

Those blokes didn't have the brains they born with and really did deserve to be blown up. I'm just glad they didn't hurt someone in the process. And as a side note, who doesn't YouTube something before they try it in this day and age? Seriously, how dumb are some people??? *grrr*

Nice generic "anti-super-strength-skunk" post though. ##SNIPPED##
Rev

see, first i read your excerpt and i thought he smoked some super alien weed and blew all the windows out from the sheer cartoonish force of the high. but ater reading the article he was tryin to make some bubble hash and probably had a sizable gas leak that met an ignition source during production

They were stupid for making BHO concentrates indoors. The oil or other derivatives are the future of cannabis. Like it or not, concentrates rich in cannibinoids are shown to help fight cancer. Also, those undergoing chemotherapy who find it hard to eat or sleep find that concentrates are a wonderful alternative to pharmaceutical drugs; having practically no side effects at all.

Like I said, these people were complete idiots. However, there's no need to demonize the product because this happens every now and again. There is a safe way to do it, obviously these folks didn't care to research that.

Thank you for putting me on the path to learning.

The occasional patient I see in clinic, the off-the-cuff remark from the police, even the odd report of a corner street explosion.

. . .

So what does the evidence say? Early research conducted by Mallory Lofflin and her co-author Mitch Earleywine (1) suggests recreational users did indeed prefer BHO to traditionally smoked flower cannabis because the effects were stronger and onset more rapid. For a medicinal user who relies on cannabis to alleviate symptoms, this is a very desirable property. But their study of about 350 users of BHO does suggest that some concerns might be warranted. Although their analyses revealed that using “dabs” created no more problems or accidents than using flower cannabis, users did report that “dabs” led to the development of higher tolerance and withdrawal, suggesting that the practice might be more likely to lead to the development of dependence.

The Future?

As parts of the world drift into revising the regulation of cannabis, the appearance of butane hash oil in parts of US raises concerns about whether history is about to repeat itself. We worry that cannabis purification and reformulation combined with the commercialization of the cannabis industry in partnership with a new generation of vaporizers (“safe delivery devices”) might lead to greater cannabis harms.

My sick sense of humour had me laughing at the thought they had one 'blast' and next door's dog and cat died. That's some special smoke for sure.

This is like railing against everclear. Nothing wrong with increasing potency. If it is dangerous to manufacture, then legalize it so we can regulate the growing industry. Duh. Stop criminalizing a plant! Awful thread here.

If it's awful improve it. Have you read the Huff Post link? Looks good,

a reply to: TheKnightofDoom

Bubble hash is different process. Why are people renaming stuff like this?

I thought dabs was some sort of super fancy extraction process... it's just running butane through it? That's old school.

Are you trying to convince me otherwise because it may be more dangerous for you? Not going to work. Alcohol is the most dangerous narcotic you can ingest and it 100% legal.
