obv I clean dog poo in the house using the mask. she only shits in the house if its diarhea. Ill takea pic of my dogs poo for you= its little white balls from the bones she eats. ive seen her poo and she farted dry powder during a poo. She goes weeks without ANY water? I can lead her to i but she doesnt drink much at all.

Are you trying to knock the derail crown of my head?

Had a pack of 50 surgical masks in march '20.

Still have at least 40.

If that aint terrifing? Major risk concacts being covid infected… I havent fallen ill yet… Could be the CBD instead of the mask workin?

What’s the pour scraping method? I’ve used a 300 ML syringe for ages. My least favorite part of the entire thing.

you pour into the center of the mold out of a flask and then scrape it toward the edges of the mold with a spackle thing or whatever to fill all the cavities. you do need to follow up and make sure all the cavities are full. use a condiment bottle instead of syringes.

I remember this day and hitting you up x)

That first picture made me think you pulled to deep a vacuum… Like damn, where’d you get that pump.

More people knew about it before I even knew it happened.

Old boss made everyone use a Coleman propane torch to melt the oil out of the rotovap flask. Despite two guys telling him that was no bueno. Eventually there was too much residual solvent and boooof in my face, lovely fireball synging my hairs. Good times, good times, theres still burnt ceiling tiles in that lab. Took a gallon of mct to get the sticky out of my long ass hair.

I would disagree. Some of the best Mexican food in the country. Solid College. Mt Lemon a worldly unique mountain at your doorstep, over a dozen seasonal waterfalls, and some of the most breathtaking sunsets you’ve ever seen. People relate shitty experiences to shitty places, but its all about who you spend your time with and what you spend your time doing in any local.

Good old method development, know and understand your exotherms :joy:

Also make sure you leave one joint unclamped on a glass reactor to act as a prv, I’d rather have a ballistic stopper and some modern art on the ceiling then an exploded glass vessel.

Balls… This does make me trust the safety profile of Ace alot more though.

I bought these goddamn lids off of scamazon that had ghetto prv on them…and had product in it, evidently a bit too much solvent and when I put the jar on the counter, the screw unscrewed and it shot a 1/4” geyser of concentrates(mostly terps) up to the ceiling .
Another time a lid popped off and my whole face was coated with sauce/sugar… luckily I had a friend helping me that day…had to use olive oil and paper towels to wash oil off of my face for 30 min…
Which is awesome if you ever get bho on your face!!! Olive oil saved the day

I do also remember some tool on IG making up lies saying that I blew the lab up there. Potent had even posted it wasn’t the lab. I had it in my story. Murphy told him it wasn’t the lab. But, the little girl still decided to spread lies. Even tries to dry snitch on the glg events and the people there. Some people’s children…

But, I’ve also lived in az for most of my life and have been to Tucson quite a few times prior to potent. I have never been a huge fan of Tucson. It does have better weather than phx, that’s for sure.

I’m surprised you didn’t quit then. Really, I gotta question why you didn’t.

Being a cannabis extractor was still “cool” to me. And my boss kept telling me “bro, I get paid extremely well dude!” So I thought that would carry over when I took his job, as he went to Michigan. Wrong wrong wrong. I definitely should have left when, lab director had us recrystallizing cbd on Joan lab hotplates in open top beakers. Let that pentane blow around nonchalantly in the lab. Oh and none of us were osha fit for respirators. There wasn’t a single one until I bought my own.
