They’re just closing a loophole that created these franken vapes/chemical isolates. This is great.

I remember a conversation with a guy about 2 years ago. He was telling me about a company with millions of dollars of sales of cbd products. Only thing is they contained no cbd

you can disagree all day long but that doesn’t change the fact that the other person is right. they are two different things. in fact, there are many different components in marijuana, like over 700 last time i read about it. maybe less, it’s been a while, but they’re all different things and they all come from the same plant.

Should fertilizer be regulated the same way explosives are? Some are made from the same base chemicals.

They absolutely track fertilizer purchases along with diesel purchases. Some of the old Cali guys only got caught, because of there diesel purchases. I believed sugar is tracked in the south also, because of moonshiners. Ephedra is tracked because of meth. Lots of stuff is tracked already

Tracking isn’t nearly the same regulations as what are around explosives.

That’s true. It is a interesting thing that if I purchase enough of certain stuff I can have people show up to check on me. Ephedra is regulated as it is a drug. You may only buy so much in a period of time. All the other stuff is tracked and can open you up to scrutiny and is legal everyday household items.

I totally get it, some of it is a bit much imo, I’m strictly stating that just because something is made from the same base doesn’t mean they should be or are regulated in the same way. Sure, buying fertilizer is tracked, look at the Oklahoma City Bombing as an example. He was able to buy fertilizer but not an explosive because they are regulated differently because they are different even though the origin material is from the same source.

I understand your point. I’ve had versions of this conversation with many people. I’ll simply say I’m in the “conspiracy “ group of people I don’t trust what they say. I am just presenting my viewpoint, I’m skeptical to say the least.

Oh for sure, I don’t trust the fed bois either. I’m just saying it’s disingenuous/intellectually dishonest to say because something comes from the same source they should be treated the same when the end product is not the same.

Because of a legal loophole, people who grew massive amounts of shitty hemp were able to extract tiny amounts of anything out of it with enough biomass and good methods 
Were not even talking about yeast creating THC I mean cmon.

I see it as large corporate interests working to limit competition in the market. I’m currently watching it happen in the ny market as we speak. It’s not even hidden, big money is using the court to get preferred treatment in the market. They’re already trying to squeeze out small farms

NY is a fun place. It’s like 3 or 4 vastly different states in one. I’m curious to see what they do here in NH. Farmers are even pushing for home grow legalization.

CBG, THC… whatever you want
That’s really interesting. I wonder if it’ll be like a drink. 1 can is like a joint. A tall boy is like a blunt?

I know they were trying to produce the CBG for cosmetic purposes. There’s already products here that are highly tested and very pure. Like LEVEL
These would be like high quality heavily tested versions of the crappy shit we find in this thread in other states. I have these and they definitely work well. Milder than synergistic flower or live resin/rosin though. The tablingual goes under the tongue and dissolves and hits as fast as smoking.

I never said CBD and delta 8 should/would be regulated the same.
In fact I said just the opposite.
So would you say crude oil is totally different from gasoline and not the same at all?
I personally would not, gas is made from Oil, how can it totally different and not the same at all?
But I see this can be a matter of opinion.
But they are not totally different as someone has said, much like oil and gas are not totally different.
Milk and oil are totally different, oil and gas are similar.
LSD and THC are totally different and not the same at all.
But CBD and THC are not totally different, in fact they are so chemically similar one can be turned into the other.
In fact, I feel they have more in common than they are different.
Are they made from a totally different source?
No, they are made from the same source, they are similar rather than totally different and not the same at all.
But that is the way I see things, you are free to have your views on this, even if I do not understand the logic.
Now do I think they should/will be regulated the same exact way?
That seems to be what you folks keep referencing…
No, I do not and I have said this.
Just so ya know I never said that at all, in fact I said just the opposite.

But are they FDA approved?
They are considered unapproved new drugs by the FDA.
Have these products been tested by the FDA?
If not, they are being sold in violation of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.
AKA they are sold in a manner that is not legal at least according to the FDA.
Non -FDA approved drugs are not legal to sell in the USA.
These products are not sold legally, they found a loophole and it will be closing very soon.
So says the FDA.
If you disagree you can discuss that with them …LOL
