I know that the yield would be lower than with fresh herb, but can you press AVB for extraction? I wanted to use my AVB for extraction but am still a bit nervous to work with solvents.

Thanks for the link! I was reading over a few articles earlier today and was hoping someone would chime in with a personal experience, but this is a big help too. I appreciate it!

I just recently learned the term AVB though I’ve been storing my AVB for about a year now. Not sure what to do with it since I started storing it on the recommendation of a neighbor who has since moved away. Read a bit about Firecrackers and that sounds like a decent idea, but I wanted to put it...

Thanks, @Pepperbrew! That's reassuring! I've never actually been able to wrap my head around the mods. I even had a friend who used to run a dispensary try to explain mods to me. He explains things in a really complex way so I ended up more confused than before. Right now, I pretty much always...

Nice! Thanks for sharing your recipe. I've met a lot of people, mostly on the growing side, that keep their process under lock-and-key (stuff like what they mix together for their soil, etc.) Don't get me wrong, I get why they do it and I'm not complaining. I just like to say thanks when...

I've been considering getting a dab rig, but I wanted to start out simple because I've mostly just smoked flower, then switched to a desktop herbal vaporizer a little over a year ago. I've sprinkled kief before and it knocked me out, so I'm probably not ready for the full dab experience just yet LOL

Yeah, the folks at my dispensary seem pretty knowledgeable, but it's also down to me to ask the right questions. With a forum set up, I can stumble upon other people asking questions I wouldn't have even thought to ask LOL

Looking forward to it!

This is most likely a dumb question, but are there vape pen brands that are considered safer? I know it's a super rare occurrence, but reading about those stories where a vape pen explodes has me a bit freaked out LOL

Wow, that would be amazing! It will still probably be some time before I try my hand at ISO-wax, but I'd love to give it a shot when I feel comfortable!

I'm in Los Angeles so I have access to everything. I just figured learning from a forum like 420 Magazine would probably answer more questions than just asking the budtenders at my local dispensary. I'm sure they'd give me decent answers to my questions, but they're also trying to make a sale.

That would be too complex for me in practice, but I'm so curious about the subject that I'll probably still read through Grandpa Tokin's guides just for the info.

At this stage, I'm just trying to absorb information on use and what to look for when you're just starting (ie. rigs, nails, etc. - it's all pretty new to me). I'm not ready to attempt any extraction or anything, but I've read a bit about the Rosin press which might be a safer option for me when...

I so often find that people I'm talking to are much younger. I don't feel old, but I'm sure a few of my friends would disagree! I'm more interested in wax dabs as opposed to e-liquid. Thanks!

@Grandpa Tokin - I like that name! Thanks, @bluter for steering me in the right direction. Much appreciated!
