Also, in order to create 100mg of pure THC as measured in a dosage of oil, you need to start with dry flower. 1lb of dry flower yields approx 18g (1800mg) of THC distillate that is around 70%THC that is used in the oils you buy, so if you are using 180mg of THC per day (which is not that much, I can hit that on a Saturday) that translates (roughly) into 45g/day of DRY FLOWER. I say roughly, because distillate yields are all over the map depending on the initial potency of the flower you process.

Those are REALLY rough numbers, but assuming you are using a 50/50 CBD to THC, it's not unrealistic to hit that 80g/day prescription if oils are your preferred method of delivery, and you are using distillates.
I’m not going to question your numbers as I have no experience whatsoever making oil. However the numbers health Canada uses to control the sale of oils are significantly different. When a patient orders oils from an LP a 30ml bottle with a THC content of 25mg/ml is considered as ~6g of your prescription.(my numbers are just rough estimates) These are the guidelines doctors follow when prescribing cannabis so a 150mg/day THC dosage would equate to 1.2 grams per day on a prescription.
