If they're licensed then they'd be selling product with the appropriate labels and (wasteful) packaging.

The one I went to was definitely not that, it felt super sketchy.

Was in Invermere this weekend and visited a shop. They sell disposable vape pens there and they're awesome. It'll be nice when we get them here. It's so convenient.

how much? I got one while I was in California last year that did the trick. No rolling, no smell and you just leave it at the Airport when you're done!

$48.25. There were a few options all at differing prices, but I went for a hybrid that was the most potent they had.

Like across from the new(ish) grocery store at the top of the hill.

Weed became legal in Illinois Jan 1.
I do not partake, but is ridiculous how it works here in America.
It is a cash only business, because proceeds from sale can't be deposited into any nationally regulated financial institution, because it's not legal. Truly bizarre.

Co-op Cannabis tells me edibles arrive on Thursday and are sold out by Friday.

Get it together! Supply and demand.

Also, mom and dad would never have guessed I would be shopping for cannabis at Co-op.

I love that I can give my Co-op number and get money back for buying weed.

$30 for a disposable vape pen. I believe it was 150mg.

Apparently .5g of distillate is equivalent to 2g of bud.

Off topic, but it's hard for me to wrap my brain how something can be illegal at a federal level, yet legal at a state level. So a federal officer can arrest you for weed, but a state/local police guy says it's all good? WTF. In that scenario who is at the top of the hierarchy? Does no one ever think to amend that? Seems like a recipe for constant judicial conflicts and a waste of everyone's time/money.

Are there examples of things like that in Canada? Or are we all on the same page here? Just seems needlessly dumb to have it like that in the US.

Yeah just a fundamental difference between the two countries. Canada is much more centralized than the U.S. is, individual states have a lot more autonomy than individual provinces do here.

I think it goes back to the origins of the U.S.; the general idea being each of the 13 colonies were to be united, but basically operate independently of each other, essentially as their own countries. Probably why they are referred to as "states" to begin with, which usually implies an autonomous area.

Not necessarily.

The better the flower the better the yield you will get out of a run with an extractor. General rule of thumb is that 1lb of 20% THC flower will yield approx 40-50ml of distillate that is around 80-90% pure THC. Lower if you suck with a short path. No one uses good bud though, they all use shake or moldy weed instead of having to throw it out. So yield is closer to 7% (30ml net yield per pound).

A 0.5ml vape pen will also have terpene and diluent added to it (up to 15% of the net) in order to make it more viscous so it burns properly in the pen, as well as reintroducing the terpene profile you are after (the distillation process strips out all terpenes).

That said, a 1.0ml pen will be at best 70% THC (I don't recall the limit the Gov put on it, but it's around there). If you were to use really good flower, and take into account the density conversion from ml to mg (1.25 ml of distillate equals 1.0mg of THC) that 1.0ml pen would need somewhere in the range of 10 grams of flower (less if you are using more diluent and terpene liquid).

To the best of my recollection, anyway. And I suck at math, so it's probably half wrong, but you get the point. The amount of bud in a pen is totally dependant on

a) the quality of flower you are using for the distillate and
b) how heavily you cut it with terpenes and diluent.

Anybody with a disposable vape pen having trouble with them getting sort of clogged? Like you have to suck super hard like it's a thick milkshake to get it going? What's the fix for that?

I get it all the time, in my case it's because it's always in my pocket, so it gets warmed up in there and the contents flow up the sides- heat and keeping the pen upright after use works the best for me, not a disposable pen but a refillable vape pen I use for Shatter and Oil/ Distillate

No. Can't arrest you in a state where it's legal, but you can be denied anything that falls under federal jurisdiction. It's crazy

Turn the vape around and blow into it. On most pens that will ignite the burner, and you can clear it without looking like you're sucking on a Peters drive in shake.


You can also stick a pin down the mouthpiece to clear it. Just don't heat it up and suck it out.....as obviously dumb as it sounds I've seen people try it and burn their mouth.
