although i don't advocate that guy's rudeness, i understand what he's doing.
there are many times when i've asked questions basically like his, "what are the chances of this hurting me and how much could it hurt me?" chances are i was gonna do the behavior anyway.
eating moldy weed probably didn't seem like that much of a risk to him, and he probably wanted to get high.
the worst thing that you could do is react with anger to his initial anger.

gonna be real honest....
cooked with some moldy weed without knowing it (looked at it two days later and it was some spiderweb like white moldy stuff growing on top of it) and i didn't even get high.... worst part, i got sick for a week.... like really really sick. flu like symptoms but usually when i have flu, i can go to classes and do normal things, but with these symptoms, i literally had to stay in bed most of the day. College student and had classes but couldn't go to half of them....
trust me do not try moldy weed whatever you do
Moisture, lack of light, and low ventilation.Quote:

Heat at any temperature that leaves any of the good stuff intact, does not affect the viability of spores, so is not a good defense.
Coffee filters are a joke if complete removal is your goal.
If I ended up with such a challenge, I would spend some time using good binocular microscope, to determine exactly what I had.
While we routinely pitch anything that is compromising to the patient providing it, we continue to play with the infected stuff, to determine exactly where the line lies. So far the answer is not black and white, but depends on exactly what you have and the growing conditions that it is living in.
I sample extractions myself, as do my fellow researchers, that we cannot supply to patients. Not often or without aforethought, but after we have eliminated the known hazards, just to test it out.
In that venue, please be damn careful what mold you ingest and pay close attention to what its secondary products are. Neurotoxins can be unrecoverable from and cannot be filtered out or killed by any temperature that our beloved Mary Jane can survive.
My best suggestion is to get a good microscope and determine exactly what you are dealing with or get out of the game..............
there is actually a easy answer, spray or dip weed with/in Vinegar It kills something like 95% of mold strains:thumbsup:
You guys do realize that this thread is like 4 years old right?
Sadly it doesn't remove any aflatoxins present.Quote:
