Anyone getting emails about Cheech and Chong Space Gummies?  Are they legit?

I took a look at them for you and the verdict is... unclear.

They tout how their product is all natural and how competitors are using harsh solvents, etc. But there's no mention of how they're producing their THC. Can you use CO2 extraction to extract pure natural THC from hemp? Yeah, you can. But at under 3% THC by law, you need a poo ton of hemp to do it and you need very expensive equipment and well trained people to run it. The vast majority of hemp derived THC is used by converting CBD to THC which requires the use of solvents and strong acids. The process can be safely done but of you're doing it while touring your product as being all natural you're not being honest and if you have an all natural product and you're not being specific about your methods I suspect dishonesty.

I was in Infinty's End here in Charlotte the other day and smelled some good weed...  They had it in big clear containers behind the counter...  Smelled legit and the dude tried to tell me it was weed and there was a loophole..  I'm sure there was a catch..  Pretty pricey too...  Claimed the gummies were legit too...

It was CBD flower sprayed with D8 or hemp derived D9. But yeah, CBD hemp flower looks and smells just like the real thing.

It dosent taste the same though and costs more than what I can pay my plug for real poo if I buy in bulk. I can get it at a little over 5 a gram and the gas station sells 2 grams for 15.

Im sure the 8 smokers can get high off that poo in gas station though.

I've never messed with that gas station poo. All D8 is highly processed. The gas stations I'm sure are carrying the cheapest poo they can buy and I'm sure those processors are producing their poo as cheaply as they possibly can. What I'm saying is it's probably dirty with residual solvents, etc. I wouldn't touch that stuff.

It's mind boggling how weed isn't legal and alcohol is. Alcohol has destroyed so many lives.

Actually its not that mind boggling. $$$ and lobbying

Yep. I'm honestly surprised big tobacco hasn't put a ton of money into lobbying for legalization at the federal level. Their business model is dying and they need a new one.

We have so many laws and regulations that are just absurd and many of them are against public will. It is a very strong majority of the population that supports legalization but "our" politicians just keep on keeping on.

So have any of you tried these THCA products?

 

Apparently as sold it simply has the legal amount of thc making it able to be sold but when heated such as by lighting it to smoke it thc is released and it is just like the currently illegal product.

 

I personally have not tried it but know folks who quit buying the currently illegal stuff as this is just as good and legal.

 

Again, I have only been told these things.

      something to feel good about in the offseason..."could be something special brewing in Carolina"

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Then don't tune in. It's really not a hard concept to understand, if your making your decision based on your own personal needs/feelings as opposed to what is best for the future of the franchise, then it's a you problem, not a Panthers problem. When the season is already lost, every fan should be rooting for the same thing.  The team plays hard until the final whistle of the season and keeps improving as a team and individually, but in the end, we still come up short and lose games, and preferably because the other team beat us, not because we screwed up and found a way to lose due to our own fault. Look at it this way... If we are up 1 or 2 points with 3 seconds left in the game and the other team is lining up for a FG.  Beyond the joy of victory or the disappointment of defeat, what impact does the other team making or missing the FG have on our team the following season? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING Except where we draft and what teams we play due to our finish in the division. The players and coaches on the team would have the exact same level of improvement and learnings about themselves individually and as a team whether the FG is made or missed.  The ONLY difference in the end is the record in the standings and if the win or loss number changes. If you want to argue if making the playoffs to lose in the first round or just missing them is better or worse, that's totally fair and I can at least understand the other side of it.  But in what is already a lost season, if you're not hoping your team plays well but ends up losing, then you're cutting off your nose to spite your face.  You're hoping for a moment of happiness at the detriment of the franchise's future, and in turn, you're basically then happy for a moment to only set yourself up for future further disappointment.

      If we’re eliminated I want the wins more.   The season is already a disappointment and if I’m not pulling for wins why bother to tune in?

      Two things terribly wrong with this post. First is that not one time has myself or anyone else agreeing with me said that the team themselves should think that way or try and lose for positioning.  Never once have I suggested the team should purposefully lose games, ever.  I honestly can't understand why people keep saying this in posts, not one fan has ever said the players should or would purposefully try to lose. And second, is yes, that has happened and it's happened very recently.  The 2020 Bengals were 4-11-1 and then were playing in the SB the very next season.   And while it might have been 2 years later and they didn't quite get to the SB, the 2021 Lions were 3-13-1 and then the 2023 Lions were up 24-7 at halftime of the NFC Championship game. The season between those two? They finished 9-8 and only just missed the playoffs. Which is why I keep trying to compare us to the Lions in where we are at in our re-build.  Throw out Bryce's rookie year with the Reich staff who just didn't work out and he looked god awful.   This past season when we were 5-12 in Canales' 1st season is that 2021 season for the Lions and their 1st season under Campbell.  This year is their 2022 where they grew a ton and Campbell's culture building was clear, where I'm saying we'd likely be better off in the long run if we go 8-9 or 9-8 and just miss out on the playoffs (which is still a significant improvement from last year).  Then our 2026 is their 2024 when we have a chance to be a real contender after adding a few more pieces and our key players having another year of experience under their belts.
