yes carts are stronger however.
you would need to take 5 - 10 blinkers of a good quality vape to get a real nice couch lock high froim a vape.
the thing with vapes is a toke of a vape you don't actually get very much that's why they last so long.
i went without vapes this time and i almost regret it reason being,
you can smoke reg quality hash or weed and boost it's strength with a vape i totally notice this now as i'm smoking a bit i've had before and without a vape it's just not the same smoke.
100% live resin vapes are best i'll not pay 70 for 1ml tho 55 - 60 max.
i'll not pay over a hundred dollars for a gram of hash either.

Sorry for the ignorance, when you say blinker do you mean a toke?

When you take a long puff on a vape pen, after a while it'll blink then shut off.
one of these puffs, around ten secs is a blinker.

I've never ever noticed that on my pens. Safe to say my lung capacity is not what it once was. I will try to achieve a blinker for the first time ever then! No chance I could handle 5-10 blinkers that's crazy talk. 5-10 as you say, on the live resin carts I currently have would end my day fast. Fascinating to hear how others use carts, thank you.

Just a long draw till the light blinks mate

I use live resin carts for daytime and smoke pure of a night time. Nothing comes close to combustion, even the best/strongest carts.

I would agree Bilty,The reason that I find carts lacking as opposed to flower is that during extraction and manufacture of the carts the entourage effect is lost (losing flavours and terps that add to the high and give it a signature high) I know that terps are often added after extraction but the entourage effect is still lost with only cannabinoids surviving the process of extraction and the added terps not really ticking the box that natural terps and flavours in the weed do. Hope this helps X

What about live resin carts? Do you have any experience with them? Even live resin carts for me are not as strong as real bud. Everything is down to personal taste and high, very interesting hearing what others say.

Let me say, l almost exclusively use live resin carts to get high. I rarely have bud, but when I have or when I grew my own last year I got way higher from bud than live resin carts

Don't get me wrong, I bloody love live resin carts haha

Your right! Good bud will always beat a cart in my book

I find the high from Live Resin carts hits me much harder but the high doesnt last as long as smoking real bud.

Not just these carts but in general sometimes you just get a dud cart.

Just contact the seller and I’m sure they will sort it.

Off the top of my head I know 2 sellers that use they carts and both sound. Just drop them a DM

Not a big fan of the V5 carts. I ended up having to buy another cheep battery pen because of the fat arse not fitting my silo. Which is fucked now 🙄

Hey Dazzler, the 1st cart i bought on LB 3 years ago was a liberty, the only battery i had was a silo, i was gutted when it didn't fit, and at the time i had no back up smoke or anything.

I have been using the Yocan uni pro which accommodates any cart, it has a gripper that holds the cart secure and a slider for 0.5 and 1ml carts, the latest version has a usb type C connector and a revised oled dash, it vapes from 2 volts and has a 10 second pre heat which can be cancelled before the 10 secs is up, all for £20 to the door.

In the real world we all need pre heat, especially through the colder months so i recently gave my Silo away but i miss it already, it's slick and cast from one piece of aluminium and works well with the smoother live resin carts.

With the liberty v5 carts it boils down to ceramic or cotton, the v5 has cotton, i am still unsure which is best, cotton takes more heating to get any vapour, both have their own underlying faint taste.
Ccell ceramic carts change the game giving great vapour and flavour but the v5's give a more retro analogue vaping experience with the bonus of having adjustable air flow.
Personally I'm glad both exist because i have stock of both.

Do you agree carts are moving on massively, i used to smoke an ounce of weed a week, now i don't give a shit, i can go weeks without a smoke with no cravings as long as i have my carts but every now and again i will see a mate who will put a gram in my pocket as a hello and those moments are real special but i don't buy weed anymore thanks to carts.

Hi Bilty, i would like to hear your usual methods for unblocking carts.
The 1st thing i do is use pre heat for 10 seconds at a time while slowly pulling being careful not to pull any distillate through the shaft.
If that doesn't work i will use a tooth pick to scoop out any distillate that may be blocking the shaft and put it on a rizla and then try a another pre heat.
If that doesn't work i then use a lighter and heat the intake holes around the thread at the bottom of the cart aswell as the glass/pirex until the oil starts to move which normally works, if it doesn't then i know it's a failed cart.

All methods require a gentle pull on the mouthpiece.

Glad you opened this discussion.

I do the same as you, nothing else really. I have had carts before I couldn't fix, so I just opened it up and position it above another empty cart I know works. Then I tape them together and stick them to a radiator, over a period of about 10 minutes the golden nectar has travelled down to the working bottom cart. Unfortunately for me, this method of saving the golden nectar and transferring it is no longer an option because I now live in Malta and they don't have radiators here. In fact, I am outside vaping my other ccell cart in flip flops, shorts and a vest. I could use a hairdryer for the heat source! I have tried lifting up the plate, but alas that has not worked. The other thing I have done to save the golden nectar is to open it up and use a pin to collect it and smear it on a rizla and smoke it like that. Be careful though if you ever try this, 1 it can get messy if you are not careful, 2 it'll get you really high, next level high.

I never thought of taping the carts together.
I agree about the next level high from smearing a rizla, i did one the other day from a full on live resin cart and i was flying.

I've personally never had an issue with a v5 cart apart from what is detailed in the linked video. I've never had to adjust the battery like the guy in the video does, but adjusting the contact on the cart does the job.

Morning,

There have been some recent changes in the last couple of weeks with coinbase and banks. I use Nationwide but it looks like they have put restrictions in place to purchase bitcoin. Unfortunately you are going to have to look at another exchange if you want to purchase.

How annoying. I will use a different app and a different bank account then. Can anyone recommend another bitcoin app please?

Could also just be delay in transaction times mate. I'm coinbase it work fine for me for 3 years so far. Touch wood

Do you also have a Nationwide bank account linked to Coinbase? Maybe your bank still allows bitcoin purchases?

I've linked my lloyds account to coinbase and it works fine, just bloody high transfer fee's. Problem is with Nationwide

This is definitely a thing, if you go to a parcel comparison website like parcel2go, you can see on the RM options there is a banner saying 'delays of 5 days or more'.

I have been told this is a hangover from the strikes, xmas post and the cyber attack. Apparently there are millions of parcels

as someone sending into europe this is definitely a thing; i think its a hangover from the cyberattack earlier in the year. However once stuff moves out of the UK it tends to process through the rest of the system quickly

Appreciate the insight from a UK vendor shipping to the EU. I have seen your goodies when scrolling through the items page, but I am mainly a cart consumer these days, when I next treat myself to some bud I might try out your buds mate. I did contact the vendor about the unusually long delivery times and they did say they are aware of delays at the moment, I just wasn't sure if it was a regional issue or nationwide. Seems like it is a nationwide issue. Appreciate the response.

Just came back from Malta as have friends there. You can get weed quite easy there now. It's sort of legal. However I did tell my mate about the site but I don't think he has ordered anything yet. There is money to be made there if you set up a grow. Its about 15 euros a gram so pretty expensive

Thanks for the reply. I figured it pretty easy to get weed there, especially as they legalised it last year (no weed clubs open there yet). About a year ago I switched from smoking bud to using the thc vape carts, find them excellent and can use them when out and about as no smell etc. I was primarily wondering if they have a scene for vape carts there? Would you know or would it be too much of a hassle to ask your friend please? I'm going to use sellers on here and order carts from them, but that's not 100% guaranteed to get through to me in Malta so just trying to cover all bases and I don't personally know anyone in Malta yet.

He said he has only seen the carts over there a couple of times and well expensive. He said that most people are growing lowryders over there. Not sure when the clubs will open they are sort of just getting started. There is grow shops popping up all over the place now. Where abouts are you staying when there?

Yeah they reckon by the end of the year the first clubs might open, but that remains to be seen. I'm actually moving to Victoria Gozo so not the main island. I've actually already registered for a club listed in Gozo but heard nothing from them in regards to being registered. If I can't find carts locally there I guess I will just try my luck ordering on here and see what happens. Or go back to smoking bud

Update: Bought a cart from MJ and it arrived today, took about 10 days from UK to Malta.

I plan on doing the same in a few years, i would be tempted to use say no to drugs in the U.S as it probably wouldn't take any longer than U.K to E.U also I'm pretty sure Doc Extracts post to E.U which reminds me, he has a Mimosa cart i need to try.

Good luck with the move, I'm sure more people will post their thoughts, you will get your carts delivered which is why i like LB as you are covered no matter where you live.

Thanks. I haven't looked back since using doc ex's 50/50 live resin carts. Let me tell you, the Mimosa carts are top notch, the best carts I have ever had and I've tried quite a lot over the last year or so.

Thanks for the recommendation, i have ordered from the Doc for years and i had a feeling the Mimosa would be the best one yet.

Hi we have vape carts and come in discrete packaging

No orders to EU have been lost

Hi SmokeDen, I will try your carts when I move. Thanks for letting me know you ship to EU :)

Any other suggestions anyone for sellers who have a good success rate for shipping to EU that do thc carts?

Have you tried a different battery ? I know it’s unlikely to be the problem but it’s either that or the a problem with the distillate. I had one bung up once it was a bit of a pain but the distillate was in the Center piece which is obviously suppose to be clear. I contacted the seller it was my first time ordering from them they advised the cart needed to be warm before use if you toke on that brand cold they clog up quickly. Do you have another cart to transfer to ? If not they advised the string on a face mask is ideal for cleaning out the Center. Have you contacted the seller ? They tend to be pretty helpful also is it decarbed already ? If it is if all else fails you could whack it in some butter or coconut oil and make some edibles so it doesn’t go to waste. Good luck

It's possible some distillate got in the centre bit when I transferred it, I had success previously using the same method so perhaps I was just lucky. My method is unscrewing the top bit you inhale from, then using celotape to join the two carts together and adding a heat source so the distillate runs down into the other cart. Battery is fine as my other carts still work. Just reluctant to keep transferring it to carts that I know did work, as each time you do lose a little of the golden juice. Not sure what else to try to be honest. Not going to bother with the seller as there is only half the cart left so not worth the hassle of it all, even though I know they would be helpful.
When you say bung up do you mean clogged as in you can no longer even draw air? Just to clarify my cart is not blocked it just doesn't seem to be working for whatever reason. Appreciate your response though.

Mine was indeed blocked, sorry mate I don’t know what to suggest other than if it’s decarbed already it’s prime for edibles so you don’t waste it. You’re welcome for the response though I’m sorry I can’t be more helpful

I put a bit of blutack over the centre bit to stop anything going in there, that might have been the issue before so thanks for the suggestion

I managed to successfully transfer it to another cart and the cart still works after transfer :)

Don't worry they will return!! Keep an eye out the next few weeks :D

I hope so! The Blue Dream was sublime.

Says online today for me 🤷‍♂️

Awesome - cannot wait to try! Top top vendor :)

Great addition to the Dr’s menu

Love 50:50 carts and would alway recommend them over just D9

Totally agree with your view on them.

Any more news on these bad boys

The doc has not enlightened us as to when he will list these magnificent carts yet.

But i hope before 20 april 😁

Apologies for the late reply we are currently working on the live-resin carts hopefully they will be available in 2 weeks by end of April

how's progress going on this mate?

Hopefully will be listing it this evening

Are theese available ? I cant seem to find them 😕

Hi mate, we'll have live resin for sale by weight and we're more than likely going to produce a cartridge too. Probably around a couple of weeks before I get the stock and get a few things made up / tested etc.
