Marijuana Mathematical Musings

The amount of rosin, squeeze or honey oil produced per gram from a type and crop of Marijuana is an important factor in the evaluation of quality. 

 HOWEVER WHAT ABOUT THIS CRYPTIC BIT OF MATHEMATICS?

1 gram of marijuana at the normal for quality marijuana 16 % THC would have 160 milligrams of THC in that gram of marijuana.

Regardless of the amount of squeeze, squish , rosin, live resin or honey oil produced from that gram, there is only 160 milligrams of THC available and that only with a 100% extraction. Most of the puck left after a successful extraction will not be psychoactive if smoked, sometimes edges have squeezed rosin on them. Assuming a 90% extraction is accomplished there would be 144 milligrams of THC in the squeeze, squish or honey oils per gram of rosin etc.

Extraction of very high yielding marijuana could produce .288 gm. of rosin, honey oil etc.   .288 gm with 144 mg or .144 gm THC results in a 50% THC content in the rosin, squeeze, squish, live resin or honey oil .  50 %THC

Extraction of a lesser yielding marijuana with the same analysis OF 16 %  THC produces say .216 gm rosin or honey oil etc with . 144 gm THC = 75% THC.

That was the math the musing is what do you want 50% or 75%

Is it possible the rest of the larger yielding marijuana is turpenes which could make it as valuable per gram of rosin etc as the lower yielding marijuana?

If analysis does not show the presence of more and valuable turpenes in the high yielding marijuana, then the lesser yielding marijuana might produce a stronger and superior product.

Finally it is possible that subjective testing by experienced persons might be the only way to judge what the better or best product is. Analysis is also always necessary to provide more information and protection from contamination. 

DO NOT FORGET THAT THE HIGH YIELDING MARIJUANA PRODUCES 30%+ MORE OF THE SQUEEZE, SQUISH, ROSIN, LIVE RESIN OR HONEY OIL THAN THE LESSER YIELDING MARIJUANA. 

MARIJUANA WARS AND THE UNDERCLASS.

MARIJUANA WARS AND THE UNDERCLASS.

MARIJUANA GROWER EXTORTION

I WAS EXTORTED FOR MARIJUANA MONEY WERE YOU EXTORTED? NOW IS THE TIME TO HIRE LAWYERS AND GET THE MONEY BACK. I KEPT EVIDENCE AND THERE ARE THE UNEARNED UNDECLARED PROCEEDS WHICH

CAN BE TRACED AND CAN BE RECOVERED FROM THE EXTORTIONISTS. PRIOR TO LEGALIZATION AND AS I SEE IT THE MANIFEST ABSURDITY OF MARIJUANA PROHIBITION AN EXTORTED GROWER COULD BE IN DANGER OF POLICE PUSHBACK. NOW THAT IS OVER.

DEMAND REPAYMENT THROUGH A LAWYER AND IF YOU DO NOT GET REPAID SUE AND EXPOSE THE EXTORTIONISTS WHEN THEY ARE UNDER OATH AND INSIST ON THEIR PROSECUTION FOR THE INDICTABLE OFFENCE OF CONVERSION. EXTORTION IS ALSO AN INDICTABLE OFFENCE. IF ANYONE FORCED YOU TO GROW MARIJUANA FOR THEM FIND A WAY TO SUE.

RIPOFF OF MARIJUANA AND MARIJUANA MONEY WILL BE HARD TO PROVE. COULD THE RIPOFF THIEVES BE PROSECUTED. EVIDENCE WOULD BE HARD TO COME BY. REMEMBER THAT IF THERE WAS NO DECLARED INCOME AND EXPENDITURES COULD BE TRACKED THIS COULD PROVIDE LEVERAGE. MANY PEOPLE HONESTLY GREW MARIJUANA AND THEY SUPPORTED THEMSELVES AND THEIR FAMILIES. THEY SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ROBBED.

CBC TV PUBLISHED A PROGRAM A FEW DAYS BACK. THE REPORTER SAID THAT THE FIRST MEDICINAL MARIJUANA USE WAS BY PERSONS WITH AIDS IN THE 1980'S. I GREW TWO MARIJUANA PLANTS FOR MY USE IN 1984 AND I WAS FORCED TO SELL THAT MARIJUANA AND PAY FOR MY EX-WIFE'S BUSINESS AND THE INTEREST DEMANDS ON A FORCED LOAN NOT TO MY BENEFIT BY MY BROTHER ANDREW COLLARD AND MY MOTHER ISABEL COLLARD. I WAS ONE OF THE FIRST SUPPLIERS TO MEN WITH THE "WASTING DISEASE" AS HIV WAS KNOWN THEN. I GOT TO SMOKE A BIT OF MY MARIJUANA BUT I GOT NO MORE AFTER I HAD TO SELL IT. I HAD MOBILITY PROBLEMS AND SPASM WHICH WAS INTOLERABLE, THE CRUELTY OF THOSE WHO DEPRIVED ME OF MY FIRST GROW MUST BE PUNISHED SEVERELY. I HAD TO PAY MY MOTHER AND THUS MY BROTHER AND SISTER INHERITED THE PROCEEDS OF CRIME AND MY EX-WIFE SAID "THIS IS BLACKMAIL''. THESE WERE ACTS OF  CRUEL HATEFUL SERIOUS CRIME.

THE LOOMING SHADOW OF AUTHORITY

LEGALISATION OF RECREATIONAL REGULATED MARIJUANA IS ONLY ONE DAY AWAY. THE HANDS OF AUTHORITY ARE REACHING OUT WITH RULES AND RESTRICTIONS AND THE HANDS OF INDUSTRY AND STOCK PROMOTERS REACH OUT FOR MONEY.

I think: How much are the poor smokers going to have to pay all those greedy hands for what?

I feel the choking hands vicariously. I empathise with people who will have to fear smoking at home. I think about the many dispensary supplier growers and what will happen to their ability to pay mortgages or rent and Hydro bills and they do not know when their product will be supplanted by the giant industrial growers. Half of dispensary staff will have to be laid off as prepackaged product replaces the View, Smell and See and weigh it out before or at the time of purchase. 

Condominium boards and Landlords will rule about smoking Marijuana in Suites. If  joints or  the hash I like stinks, and smoking is conducted in a building or on a balcony then other residents will be able to complain and smoking cannot proceed . Vaporizers should be able to be almost odorless and they might be the answer to multi-dwelling accommodations. I would think that smoking buildings, hopefully with social smoking lounges, will develop. I certainly have not ever been bothered as I smelled someone lighting up Marijuana or Hashish. I am curious, what is that?

I do not know if you realize that Marijuana Growers were very fearful at times in the past as accusations of being organized crime and spreading mold and hiding exaggerated earnings  from the tax man and the urging on of the public to inform terrorized them. Get busted and have everything seized including the children. One grower said to me " It cost me $80,000. when I was busted several times." This prospect to many persons would be terrifying and insurmountable. 

BY-LAW OFFICERS WERE USED TO GET POLICE ON TO PRIVATE PROPERTY WITHOUT A WARRANT TO FIND OR SMELL SOMETHING.

I READ IN THE NEWSPAPER HERE IN SOOKE BC AN ARTICLE THAT ENCOURAGED THE CALLING OF BY-LAW AND POLICE NEEDLESSLY.  I THINK THAT IT BECAME A GAME OR A POWER TRIP  TO SEND POLICE OR BY-LAW OFFICERS WITH A POLICE ESCORT ON BOGUS RAIDS HOPING TO GET SOME SORT OF BUST GOING. 

I WAS SUBJECTED TO NUMEROUS INSTANCES OF THIS SWATTING OR WHATEVER. I WAS NOT BUSTED FOR ANYTHING BUT I SURELY WAS TERRORIZED AND I HAVE COLLAPSED MANY TIMES. 

NOW THE DISPENSARIES, THE OWNERS AND STAFF ARE TO BE TARGETS FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT AND FINES AND IMPRISONMENT. I WONDER HOW THEY WILL FEEL ABOUT A FAKE 911 CALL OR BY-LAW COMPLAINT FABRICATION OR SOMEONE SAYING THEY HATED POLICE OR WOMEN?

Qualitative Analysis

                                                                                                                       

I did not believe analysis were  accurate in some of my original posts on Marijuana Critic. Now that numerous analysis were conducted by many labs and there is a historical record, I have to credit the dispensaries and labs who did thorough analysis with a job well done protecting customers and allowing them to compare and select with precision. Not only by names, but through studying analysis. 

I HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT ANALYSIS WAS NOT AS COMMON AS I THOUGHT IT WAS AND THAT IT WAS NOT REGARDED AS IMPORTANT.     ANALYSIS TO DETECT CONTAMINANTS IS IMPORTANT.

The independent grower and Dispensary system of Marijuana production is coming to an end next week. If it ran as I think it did, low prices were paid to growers and the responsibility for dealing with government fell on to the Dispensaries.  Store expenses and employee costs were deducted and the margin was taxed including product cost. Similarly if you work for an established business, all of the deductions for costs and even taxes are held by the business, the workers get the residual earnings. Growers also bore many expenses which would be deductible from their earnings. Payment as low as two dollars a gram is common, three is doing really well and there are those growers who do get four or five dollars per gram. Growers provide a facility, pay for power, supplies and labor or do the labor. Dispensaries sell for five to fourteen dollars per gram. That margin exceeds grower margin and labor pay by an astronomical amount. 

Dispensary customers sometimes paid a lot for their Marijuana, but the level of service at some Dispensaries and the choices and quality will possibly not be achieved for a long time under the new system and they may have to pay just as much or more.

                                                                          

Third party analysis through a sample picked out of a pound    or half pound bag by the dispensary is the best process and protection for the consumer. Any other methodology will not be as effective as the Producer's honesty will be required
