Could bromocresol green be used to ID pine resin slabs? They all seem to be distillate cut with resin, which would react differently than THCa, no?

Hard to say because ā€œpine resinā€ can come from quite an array of species.

It’s less to identify the pine resin itself, and more to identify distillate mixed with products meant to stabilize it. I’m just curious if the acids in the resin will interfere with the reaction

I get what your trying to do and I’m saying that its tough to say whether bromocresol will identify pine resin from ever source.

Edit: I thought bromocresol was some component of pine resin lol.

I bet a well stacked CRC would clean it up.

Usually I assume cutting concentrates is influenced by fetching poorer and poorer prices at market. But prices are doing very well: $3k for D9 distillate in Cali, $2400 flower lbs in OR, and even hash is on the up and up.

People who have cut in the last ~6 months are VERY greedy.

The pine rosin slabs I saw were most likely D8 from the effects when consumed. Greedy folks without access to D9 can make cheap psychoactive slabs too!

Price is one thing but supply is the factor driving the boof.
