Hey buddy,
I agree that carts are potentially a minefield and yes we should all do what we can to help each other on here.
I do think that the D8 & D10 issue is somewhat of an urban myth though for the following reason: they actually cost more to produce than D9, so substituting them makes little commercial sense.
I know it’s not quite as simple as that. Despite a higher production cost D8 & D10 fly under the radar in the US as they contain no THC and are not subject the the rates of tax on cannabis products so hit the shelves at a lower price. But that’s just a work around for non legal States and is about to disappear now that the FDA is all over it.
D9 is commercially cheap to produce so I think we get D9 (unless some dodgy vendor has picked up a few dozen at a US gas station and is trying to flog them on here but the ones I’ve seen say on the box that they contain no THC).
The issue for me is what gets added to D9 along the way?…do we get genuine cannabinoid derived terpenes (which are very expensive) or artificial ones?…if they are further diluted, what with?
We certainly need more testing imo 👍🤔
