It’s been quoted by many members like I said.
Go to that quote and read the comments following. He is getting the same reaction from that comment, as you are. You don’t know what humble is do you?
That’s not the only post of it or deleted profile on here.
I’ve already admitted to learning the proper term from others & yourself in here. Are you really going to keep this dragging along now?
Back on topic: @Sativasfied, are you seriously doing fractional distillation and not taking fractions?
No heads? No Tails?
Just that which boils & that which don’t?
Do you use a thermometer in your head? Vapor temps over which you’re collecting?!?

You keep defending you being wrong, just trying to correct you. You getting up in your feels about being wrong, is your problem. No matter how it’s said to you, you think you’re being attacked. Just accept the “L”.

Following comment. Just because someone else has said it, doesn’t mean that it is correct. Seeing as, they were corrected immediately after, just like you were.

Here’s one by photon, it does not use the word in not gonna use anymore as it’s not PC, but it doesn’t explain the same as what I was but more in depth.
Especially since this is a single flask run. @Dred_pirate
See where the dots connect, water soluble compounds meaning terpenes, fats, lipids, ( the last two only to an extent) but while under heat & then going well above azulene fraction of off, if not done through azeotrope distillation of removing the moisture content by forming a azeotrope then it would be in the contents of that flask.
There’s also a difference in correcting someone & calling then a “fucking retard” as you guys want to put it.

Yeah @Sativasfied sorry your thread got derailed a bit. Moral of the story, your distillate is gonna look like cloudy ass most of the time if you aren’t fractioning the distillate as it boils.
During distillation, not everything that boils is something you want in your end product, hence people talking about “heads” and “tails”. These are usually fractions that are taken separately from the “mains” (aka your good, usable first pass product) because they contain terpenes and other components that have been, in colloquial terms, fucked up by the high temperature and vacuum of the distillation process. You want to separate these undesirable compounds from your THC, and then combine and rerun similar fractions later to further strip any remaining cannabinoids.
Once you have run a pass on the heads material and tails material, the heads and tails from THOSE runs can usually be tossed, assuming your took your fractions properly as the amount of remaining cannabinoids won’t be worth the time and effort to distill.
If you are running nice fresh frozen live resin, you should consider pouring off your terp fraction ahead of time (or remove it via vacuum oven and cold trap), then distilling the remaining cannabinoids. Take your fresh terps, add to your distillate, and you have a product that is 100x better than distilling an entire live resin run terps and all into one flask. I’m guessing those balls don’t smell good like the live resin does?
Sorry if you knew all this already!

The cherries strain probably came out clearer because the live resin you put into the distillation flask had less terps and non-cannabinoid contaminants than other strains.
Terps are typically stripped from oil before it is distilled.

it was my fault all along
loving it 
btw @Cheebachiefextracts neither does arguing that you are correct make you so.
might a fucking retard have earned the title somehow?

Never argued I was correct. All I did was explain what was meant & for not knowing a word wasn’t a word. I love how I can have all this name calling Happen to me for no reason at all & nothing be done about it.
of course, of course… FOR NO REASON AT ALL

Thanks for the replies guys, no matter if it swings off topic, plenty to digest and glean from in these responses.
Not all balls sweat, have not found a pattern with strain on that. Here is a pic of a ball with striations and no ball sweat.
Same bho extraction sop is used for all material and no post processing is done, all material used for bho is FFLR, so FFLR crude is used for spd, same spd sop for all strains, yes this is all done so we have single-source single-pass varietally correct distillate.
Someone mentioned perhaps the whipped cherries terpenes were soaking the fats. It has no more terps than others, and after looking at the results from Whipped Cherries I do not see anything it has that others don’t, not that I think it is related to what the topic is, but going thru past results there is one terp that it has that I don’t see a lot of in the strains we run, β-Ocimene.
So I never saw these clear balls as a problem, just saw it as a difference and thought I’d ask hoping there was a clear answer as to why. Reading through all the replies, perhaps I should have been asking why my balls have striations since that seems to be where the replies gravitated towards, but since the crystal balls were the exception for what I see, I saw that as the outlier.
Thanks again for the conversation.

You should look into crystallizing your ff runs, pouring off terps and saving them and then decarb & distilling your thca
really thrown off by this tek

I think it’s the lack of Tek that’s throwing you off! It’s like that 1 strain has to be pulling less fats during extraction for some odd reason. Or they stay dissolved, or something. It’s crazy to me, but that’s what I have been thinking this whole time. For some reason it’s pulling less fats, or they’re just staying dissolved more from the 1 strain. I’d seriously like to try 1 of the pens to how it tastes and everything! Totally throwing so many processes to the side, and just not doing them. I can’t believe that the distillate looks as good as it does to be honest! Must be the FF, or something…
