Georgia $150M class action lawsuit

So you’re claiming that just by testing a month early, these plants that end up being 15%+ THCA, test below 0.3% D9 post decarb?

I mean if that’s true, wow, my understanding of what’s possible in grows is way off.

If that’s actually true, the argument seems sound enough, but that seems really hard to believe.

It counters everything I’ve read

https://sci-hub.se/https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jnatprod.5b00949

@pdxcanna sorry but old labs presented by scientists with little to no knowledge on how to grow cannabis let alone how to grow it to preserve the acidic precursors arnt solid evidence to go by and ahould be considered outdated, @magisterchemist these techniques are new and most genetics defiantly arnt appropriate so no, outside the work my company has done to hunt specific genetics and develop our tech I’m not claiming anything, not everything passes the tests, some things dont test as high, some not at all, some get hot within a week of flower, lots of variables go into production so that’s why my company took last year and did all the leg work to find genetics and develop a SOP that we are now selling to other farms

He is asking how people justify ignoring the post decarb part of the hemp legislature. Unless you have some magic thca that doesn’t decarb to d9

im just explaining how the argumentis being made, but since you posted why dont you share the part of the hemp bill that requires decarb testing post-harvest? if you would have taken the 30 secs to read my posts you would see nowhere, do I Ignore it, in fact its the number one thing I tell people when looking into thca hemp is that it must pass pre harvest testing requirements. and yes, I currently have about 30 strains that would pass most states pre harvest testing requirements.

Obviously can’t really believe it until I see it, but if you did figure that out, full props to you.

The dumbest loophole has got to be the <.3% D9 in edibles. I can’t believe that one hasn’t been amended. I can get stronger hemp gummies than I can rec gummies…

Actually the problem is fraud and people who know how to alter and fake documents and or testing. It’s plain and simple. People who are good at paperwork.

True thca isn’t psychoactive.

It really. The trick is superimposing plants during the test phase and end phase. Essentially you can test plants that don’t have any output and lie and say that’s your whole crop. It’s about commiting fraud. Not about anything else. Any obfuscation and lying to buyers. It’s just weed doooood.

@TheWillBilly You didn’t do jack doinks, you put feelers out and paid people to bring you others people’s strains and work, and then figured out a way to alter and skirt paperwork. You prob paid someone to show you how to scam paperwork - but you forgot thca and d9 are both quasi regulated. If you get popped you’ll still get rolled and have to explain to your local magistrate why constables dragged you in while your bouncing around the word hemp and they don’t care … Good luck …

Why you lying dooooood.

@Lightbulb Stupidity seems to have blessed you with all its gifts :kissing_heart: but seriously call the human service number and ask for some help getting your life under control :+1:

What don’t like your lies called out? “We use special genetics”. “They just don’t test normal at all”. “We figured out how to get the genetics to test just right”

Fuck you and your magic claims. Magic isn’t real.

I just don’t like how people describe these loopholes. Such negativity. It isn’t “stupid” that more people have access to medicine. Just my 2c. Access to cannabis for all > getting rich personally off cannabis.

What’s fucked is telling people it’s hemp so they let their guard down and catch a charge because they think their “thca hemp” is something different from normal weed. All the focuses on getting away with producing it and selling it with absolutely zero fucks given about the legality of what the customer is actually buying and posses. Shit is border line entrapment being sold as something legal in states where people still going to prison for possession.

Reminds me of blind muling

The problem is that if it’s actually illegal, then you didn’t provide access to all, you provided deceit that might get them arrested later. If it’s black market say it’s black market. Saying it’s legal when it’s actually black market is sketch AF. And believe me, I’m not getting rich off much anything.

And like I said before, if these loopholes are APPROVED in court, great, that’s good for everyone. I just do not see that as the most likely outcome.

In this case it’s “providing access to all” for like 1-2 years and then getting busted and the entire legal industry getting handcuffed in the future because of it. 1 step forward 5 steps back.

That’s 100% what it is, to smoke shop employees, etc making minimum wage no less.

Those people are going to be buying black market anyways if it’s illegal in their state. Plenty of people I’ve seen be let go because their THCA flower is under .3d9. As a customer I’d rather have an item that is grey in legality/bought retail and tested rather than buy it from a drug dealer and for sure go to jail/have to deal with sketchiness.

This kind of loophole is what this industry was born out of. I really don’t understand the panty twisting.

Also access to cannabis is access to cannabis plain and simple.

I would rather support drug dealers over a thca cookies store

Then y’all have no argument about keeping the custys legal and out of trouble. Whether anyone wants to admit it these loopholes have moved the industry forward.

It’s not about keeping it legal, it’s about making them aware that it’s not legal so they don’t do something stupid like hand it over to a cop in a stop/search
