What would you call it then? Its not distillate and its not full spectrum so I think liquid diamonds isnt a bad term for it imo because thats what it is…

No it’s not. Is just distillate.
Distillate is simply put either called distillate or decarbbed thca.
Liquid diamonds is a misnomer and bullshit term like a buzzword used to confuse people or market customers.
The name end of the product is the result of a test. If you take thca and decarb it and you just have a bunch of d9 it’s just decarbbbed product. If the test most similarly resembles distillate in mirror effect, then basically it’s just a form of distillate in itself. It just wasn’t distilled persay.
Liquid diamonds both doesn’t make sense and the term is being used by schmucks and dildos through our with a lack and lose understanding of can abuse science or terminology.
Everyone is always smoking distillate, on all products out there. Technically the thca doesn’t do anything. Just the d9.
Not really, when the people who are using liquid diamonds as a selling point are entirely fraudulent in many cases and just take distillate that isn’t clean and add some terps, close the cap and bake it out and tell people it’s something it’s not. Liquid diamonds are just a market obfuscation term.
The problem is d9 output product is technically the same on a test so anyone can just use distillate and lie. Kind of like the rosin wook crew how they lie all the time.
Anyone who tried to sell product using terms like liquid diamond is engaged in other forms of fraud most likely. Never trust a canna lab tech who talks shop or marketing and uses such a term.

It’s hilarious morning entertainment watching people forget this one small fact.
This is a complicated question, actually.
Assuming that all Diamonds are 100% pure state of only one crystalline form, (none of which is probably true)…
The question is really can one apply heat to a THCA crystal , and will it melt to a “liquid form” and exhibits a liquid state vapor pressure Prior to Decarbing to d9 THC…which then has it own vapor pressure. I am talking a vape pipe , joint, or melting point apparatus….anything will do.
I am pretty sure one can melt THCA to liquid state (carefully) and allow it to recrystallize before significant decarbing. When I say recrystallize, remember the phenomenon of “diamond cyrstallization from a concentrated alkane solution” is not the same process as “recrystallization from a THCA liquid state”…so I am using the term “ recrystallization” loosely to include polymorphic crystalline states.
It is highly likely when popped into a vap pipe…at correct temperature one can get an aerosol made from “THCA crystal” that can include both THCA (dimer/monomer) and d9 THC. I believe there are studies which show that THCA can appear in human blood after smoking joints.
KOK, to answer your question, yes the great bulk of THCA is decarbed but some THCA makes it into the aerosol. there are mysteries…still at large.
This has nothing to do with the Marketing Term: “Liquid Diamonds” noted above.

It’s not liquid diamonds. Decarbed diamonds maybe, but they are not diamonds in any form. Call it D9 THC like it is.

Distillate is a widely used term from say HVAC to petrol.
When discussing extracts we only need to compare the the test results in general side by side. If something walks and quacks like a dick, it basically is a duck.
Even if you distill cannabis, or force decarb crystals, they are essentially and even test wise the exact same thing. The distillate may even be cleaner and more potent fyi.
In the nomlecature view maybe. Bit if it’s the same chemical makeup and content then it’s the same thing. Don’t forget you can get to “distillate” or “decarbbed product” or “d9 active cannabinoids” in more than one route apparently.
Not to mention you guys are not using diamonds anyways, no one is decarbing farmed diamonds, you just using thca isolate powder. There never is or was a diamond. Shitty ass marketing.

d9 thc is a liquid and has no crystalline feature whatsoever. Makes no sense to try to call it that.

Crystal Light is a lemonade powder for drinks…
Does that make sense either?
It just can’t be called distillate because it’s not distilled… end of discussion.

I know I just picked your post instead of the others suggesting a crystal name for the quote.

Crystal light is a crystalline powder, mix with water and it’s a liquid, dehydrate the water and it’s a crystal.
D9 THC will NEVER be a crystal again. It is not a crystalline substance,
I agree that distillate is an even worse name than liquid diamonds though.
