Title: Hash Oil/Wax Review Threads or Recommendations ?
Post by: Adelphi on June 04, 2013, 02:06 am
Are there any good threads or sources I should check out ? Any recommendations personally ?

I could also do for a recommendation on vape pens or cartomizers. I saw a listing for e-juice compatible and one for 510 threaded compatible tips. Does anyone have experience with these ?

hey adelphi, i'm almost strictly a concentrate smoker, and i've ordered off of quite a few people..  so far, the best i've had was from GaiaGarden, but they don't regularly stock bho afaik.  the best value i've ever gotten was ordering the 1/2 oz of honeycomb from norcalconnection for 350, but i don't see them listing it right now (on SR at least, i believe they've got a BMR).  it was stuff that i sold EASILY for 50 a g.  people thought it was a straight up bargain, and really, it is.

right now there's a LOT of good concentrate on the road, and a LOT of shit.  there's also some really pricey stuff and some stuff that's more realistic.  right now i'd say your best bet is to make an order with SouthernHumboldt, because they're running a special for newbies at $20/g for 5 g's.  and they have excellent sap and shatter from what i've heard, i'm waiting on a pack myself.  a lot of people seem to really like just4u2nv, but the super high prices have always kind of made me stay away for whatever reason.  i just have never had any concentrate that i would pay 70/g for, not to mention that he only ships first class.. 

so yeah, if you don't mind letting it sit in processing a little while since they're clogged with orders atm, go for SouthernHumboldt.  if you need it fast and don't mind paying a little extra, then i would use someone like lexisadie, who has probably the best looking wax on the entire site right now, and a really good reputation for having luxuriously dank shit.  i've had extracts from thegreenovendoor and was not super impressed by it, as well as from novartis, which was underwhelming as well.  scoobydoosmokes47 (i believe) makes great extracts for the price, he was one of the first people i ever ordered from and his stuff is consistently B+ or higher.  californiadreams has great crumble wax, whooped my ass super hard last time i ordered some diamond og from him.  hashman sent me a really disappointing gram of what was supposed to be violator kush honeycomb but looked more like just a brown splodge.  i smoked the whole thing in like a day and got kind of stoned, not a big fan, but that was when he first started out as well.  i've ordered from others but i'd have to think about more..  hope that gives you something to start with.. 

as far as vape pens, i have a cloud-style one that i burn hard as hell and i love using it, especially in public, although the taste is a little plasticky i'll admit.  i've never used e-juice extracts or a pre-loaded 510 tip, but i'm sure they'd both work great.

Wow, thanks for the in depth reply ! I appreciate it. Do you use the BHO in your vape pen ? Would you recommend the model you got or is it just a generic cloud style ?

no prob, i know how saturated the market is with these things and with concentrate and it's incredibly difficult to sort through all the bullshit..  the pen i use is the sutra, it's made by gotvape, and comes with a really good warranty, as well as one chamber with a titanium coil.  i smoke oils, wax, shatter, everything out of it, and i go hard on it all day long, but tbh the best vape pen i've ever used by far was the vapor bros dabblr.  you cant load much more than 3-4 large sized DABS (not hits, these are definitely dabs, this shit would make keith sweat) at once, but it has the easiest loading chamber i've ever used, the best flavor, the longest battery life and it doesn't have an auto-shutoff for how long you hold the atomizing button down because it has a self-regulating temperature-controlling microchip in it (it only gets so hot and beyond that it just stays at that heat, so you don't burn your dabs).  its also like 90 bucks i think, my sutra was 70, and i honestly wish i'd spent the extra 20 bucks after using my friends dabblr.  whoops the shit out everything else on the market (besides the omicron, which a friend just bought me but is WAY expensive [$250-ish] and much more difficult to get acclimated to, even though it can hold 1g+ at a time in its tank).  vapor bros make a solid product, as well, which if you've ever used their box vapes you can attest to, and i honestly feel scared sometimes when i let my friends hit my sutra, cuz it's fragile, and would NEVER let anyone else handle my omicron due to just how difficult it is to get a good hit off of it, but would have zero problem passing the dabblr around at a party or in the van or anywhere, it's very intuitive, but if you're not ready for it that thing can put you on your ass..  highly recommended..

fuckcombustion is a really good forum to check out.  they're all old-school vapeheads and are really tough on most new products, especially vape pens, so if you want an honest opinion, that's the place to check.  i did a lot of research there before i bought my da buddha, and was glad i did, because no other tabletop vaporizer has gotten me fried like that thing.  it puts most of my friends to sleep lolll  never used wax or oil in it tho, only shatter once and what a mess...

Can't thank you enough for all the info, really helpful. You are right there is so much info to wade through it's hard to get caught up on it. Even finding a good forum for info was tough so I will check out fuckcombustion for sure.

The Omicron had caught my eye, the idea of a small "tank" of oil always at the ready really piqued my interest. Would the Omicron work in public like how you use your Sutra ?

I will check out this dabblr too, I wasn't familiar with dabbing until I just now did a googling about it. Pretty interesting results it seems ! With the Dabblr is it tough to load with the 3-4 dabs ? Could I load and use it without too much trouble as the passenger in a car for example ?

Thanks again for all your help
