Thankyou, yeah look at prohibition and how bootleg liquor sometimes contained methanol which can cause blindness when the alcohol isnt distilled properly and methanol has a lower evaporating point and thus is one of the first products of the process that makes it to the end of the process. Other things like lead solder used in the copper fittings when building it and using things like car radiators as the condenser and the mash containers being left to ferment in the woods with mice and other animals falling into the barrels and dying. So yeah in terms of regulation it definitely helps to have laws in place for companies who give two shits about having a legit business

Im not saying your wrong but its an isomer of D9 and is found in the plant naturally and when you eat D8 it metabolizes into 11-hydroxy-thc which is exactly what D9 also metabolizes into when ingested orally. So it seems like the child probably had a preexisting condition and the D8 only exasperated whatever underlying condition, not necessarily meaning it was just D8 that was the sole cause of the death. Its a shame but no child should ever be consuming a product like that in the first place

I mean me personally i dont particularly like high doses of thc so D8 being about a third of the potency i can regulate my buzz a bit more. It also might be placebo but D8 feels less “speedy” than D9 for me. If i get regular flower from a shop its when they RARELY have a low thc high cbd strain. All the dispensaries around me only have high thc stuff and a lot less options in terms of type 2 flower. Theres 3 different kinds of flower for cannabis. A type 1 is a high thc strain for the people who like getting blasted. Then theres a type 2 which is a more evened out 1:1 ratio of thc to cbd. Then theres the type 3 which is just straight hemp flower, only cbd and non psychoactive cannabinoids like cbn, and cbg ect…

Regulate it! Thats the phrase we need, people need to realize D8 is perfectly safe and has the same safety profile as D9 but this shit needs to be lab tested and not sold at a gas station where the attendant doesnt give af about age and will sell to kids. Designated smoke shops where you have to have ID to even enter would be enough.

This is the first time ive seen them, harvested a buck two years ago and when i went to field dress it they were crawling under its armpits and needless to say (grew up in the woods my whole life and am no stranger to insects) i was thoroughly creeped out. Found out what they are and got it harvested but the butcher said hes never seen them in these numbers before. I wonder if they have anything to do with these new diseases on whitetails in recent years. I don’t remember in all the years my grandfather had me hunting with him and being in the woods do i ever remember seeing them.
