and all the vids on youtube are idiots doing this shit in garages and in kitchens.

we need something with a legit warning screen in the behinning saying this is for medical purposes only/ make us look professional. rather than crack heads over the stove with pyrex and fucking pvc pipes...

IMHO a vac purge is unnecessary , if you took 50 vac purged and 50 well done heat purges i bet we all couldn't tell the difference

but when it comes to blasting the difference is we take our shit seriously and it shows in our work when i blast all my time energy and concentration goes into making the sap that i love .

while clinics just blast scrape and think they are purging and then throw it on the shelves

at the end of the day we could make videos on how to be safe but that's just leading the horse to water i'm sure our videos wouldn't get a million views although somewhere in my heart i hope they would

^ faded youre deff right. just wish we could educate people cause it makes those of us who do this legitmately look like idiots.

but i do have to disagree i would think that if we had a video that was made in relation to the TC community and everyone watched it and subb'd we could get it to the top of the youtube search. i have faith, and if we never try we'll never know

many video's have been made already, and many more are definitely still being made. The problem is the ratio, for every 1 person demonstrating safe practices, there are 100+ people who do unsafe things, telling people that it is safe.

Hey tokecity,

Thanks for all this wealth of information. It helped me get ready for my first run tomorrow. However I have one question about spray times. I'm going to run 7grams tomorrow and after scouring through the pages I've come to the consensus that

• 30grams of bud per 1 can of butane
• Spray til it's clear

So doing a little math assuming it takes a minute to empty a can of butane. I should be spraying for about 10-15 seconds for a 7 gram run. Any input on this tc? Is this really something to be concerned about?

I used to think about the same thing when I first started spraying... I was doing stealth runs at night and couldn't see well, so I'd try to count the seconds for my sprays. Then when I did my first run in daylight... I realizes how fast it can turn clear and how much extra tane I was spraying! Nowadays I use a half can for a full ss baster which is about 24-25 grams. I'd say it's possible to use a half can for a full zip spray if it's packed well. So you could do the math for smaller runs... Most important thing is to have light, watch, spray till clear, then stop. Just my .02 anyway.

Thanks I'll follow your advice, and will definitely be doing it during the day.

No way to judge it off time
The butane flow is regulated by how tight you pack

After completely my first run, I agree. I think it's all in the tube and the packing technique.

Have you investigated the possibility of controlling the flow of butane by increasing the density of the output filter?

^^Interesting. I used to use two coffee filters on the end of a baster when I started out making oil. I now am using the ss screens from okief on the same basters. I wonder what the difference could be....
