Is this Sulphur?

So after 48h In ethanol with botanical terpenes there’s no change in the appearance of the pennies.

Top: ethanol+BHO after 24h
Middle: 48h botanical terpenes
Bottom: 4 days in water+ citric acid. They should look like the ones from the middle row after a bit of scrubbing with a kitchen scrubber.

I’m guessing I do have some contamination. So my best guess is to just buy some copper tubing. As to avoid any other metal that my be in the pennies.

I’m gonna buy some silver first

Silver will definitely tarnish in the presence of sulphur. Some of the newer bullion is coated to prevent tarnish, but I don’t really know which other than newer maples leaves. Maybe you’ll get lucky and wind up with a neat rainbow toned coin, or better yet, sulphur free dabs.

heeeeeellllp!!!
Identical problem happened to us just recently
It’s a total dick move by the farmer that knew that when he sold us product
Problem is it was fresh frozen and was used in bho extraction … we didn’t get to it right away took a while for my costumer to figure out why the hell the smell was rotten …
they thought it was their hardware
I can’t begin to tell you how it ruined our relationship with several clients…
Luckily it was a licensed deal and I raised absolute hell!!!

After all it’s not sulfur. Smells rubbery skunk. Now that I had the chance to smell the sulfur I can note the difference. I guess the smell comes from terps after all.

My silver came in and after 70 hours in 100ml Ethanol and 10gr. Of BHO I saw no change to the surface of silver.

As a control I bought some sulfur and added about 0.4gr to 50ml ethanol.

I placed the silver in the solution and after 5 min you could see the silver going yellow.

Straight out of plastic:

After 70hours in 100ml ethanol+10gr BHO

After 3 hours in 50ml ethanol with 0.4 gr sulfur. As you can see sulfur is not very soluble in ethanol.




I’m going to leave the silver in there for a few days to see if it will remove all the sulfur. Not very probable.

Your silver is now contaminated. Send it to me for proper disposal.

Happy to hear you just had some funky skunky instead of sulphur dabs!
