Title: Canada/USA Weed Capsules
Post by: 420Caps on April 18, 2012, 02:53 pm
[UPDATE: May 10]

I took down the listing since I found a buyer for it locally. Since interest seems low for the capsules right now I'll be putting up a listing for weed in just over a week. I'll start a new thread in this forum with more details soon.

[UPDATE: May 3]

Listing is back up for 25 capsules of Chocolope and Lemon Skunk. Chocolope has more of a sativa high and Lemon Skunk has more of a body effect but they both have some balance to them. Probably good to mix them too to customize the effect. Each order will include 10 capsules of one strain and 15 of the other, please let me know if you have a preference and I'll try to accommodate if possible. I will also include 5 doses of potentiating supplements as well.

Pricing, shipping extra:
25 capsules - $44

Shipping:

Canada: $20 Xpresspost with tracking
USA: $25 Expedited Ground with tracking

=====
I'm a new Canadian vendor who will mainly be focusing on coconut oil based cannabis capsules and weed sales later on. I'm currently shipping to Canada and US only.

The capsules are made by myself with great care using single strains of premium bud and virgin coconut oil. A strong dose for most people will cost about $10 (~5 caps) and they're easy to titrate with about 0.08g equivalent of weed per capsule. They're great for both medicinal and recreational use. I think the best part is being able to easily adjust the dosage, one capsule will be mild for most people but sometimes that's all you want or need and it's ideal for medicating at work. As a special bonus I will be including 3 potentiators to take with each dose to boost the effects and increase bio-availability. They are ginger, bioperine, lecithin. Take all or none if you want, there will be enough to take one per dose, assuming a dose is 5 capsules. You can buy more yourself in most drug stores if you need more. IMO lecithin has the greatest effects and can be bought cheaply.

Strains will vary but ones I've had access to recently are Purple Kush, Cannatonic, LSD, LA Confidential, Jean Guy, Jack Herer, Power Plant and various Hazes.  If I had to put a letter rating, probably AAA for the most part. I also might be able to offer some cheap outdoor strains like Freezeland on occasion.

For medical use these capsules are great since you will know what effects to expect (check strain reviews) and the dosage should be similar between batches. They're also pretty discreet to take in public, though they do give off a slight odor and you'll need to watch your burps too. On the upside, the process I use does a good job of preserving the terpenes so they smell and taste similar to the bud used, and I have some nice smelling ones at that. I'll try to accommodate strains where possible, I know med users can be picky. Cannatonic might be especially interesting since it's extremely high in CBD. May try to get that for my next batch.

There is a chance I may be able to offer reasonably priced shrooms, LSD and hash down the road too if there is sufficient demand and I can secure a supply.
 
Canada shipping is 2-day Xpresspost with tracking for $20. US shipping is Expedited Ground with tracking for $25. All packages vacuum sealed.

Pricing, without shipping:

Capsules (0.08g each eq.):
25 caps: $44 (~5 strong doses)
50 caps: $86 (~10 strong doses)
100 caps: $160 (~20 strong doses)

I'll only be doing 25 cap orders to start since I have limited product right now. I've tried to get the prices as low as possible to be competitive and profitable enough to make this worthwhile for me. Shipping and packaging eats up $20 per order making small orders expensive and converting bitcoins cuts into my margins a lot too.  But I'm aiming to be sustainable and stick around for the long term, so in exchange for a slightly higher price I'm willing to try to be more accommodating to my customers, and more flexible with custom orders for repeat customers.

Weed prices will be in-line with the pricing of the other AAA sellers here and I'll probably mainly focus on quantities less than 1 oz. My target market is consumers not resellers, and some might welcome quarters and eights on the market.

So let me know what you guys think. I also want to know what kind of strains you'd like to see me offer as well. Remember I will only be selling capsules for the first few weeks, once I can afford to buy in larger quantity I'll commence weed sales and maybe some other products.

First strain for the capsules is "LSD" which has a nice body numbing effect and an interesting head high. Great for pain too. Reviews here: http://www.leafly.com/hybrid/lsd . Will likely only have enough for 4-5 orders of 25 caps to start.

Post by: 420Caps on April 22, 2012, 09:55 pm
So there hasn't been much interest yet, would there be anyone interested in free samples? It would be Canada only and in exchange for reviews, ideally for people who have done reviews here in the past. If people want to put their name in for a free sample, I can pick a few people to get them in a couple days.

I'd welcome any opinions on my product offering and suggestions for boosting interest. Samples is one and I'll get the product photo up soon, but I'm not sure what else to do. I spent months researching on the forums and the site to get my account up and going so it's a bit disappointing but I'm vowing to stick with it.

Maybe down the road, I need to figure out the best way to mail them down there first.

Due to lack of demand so far from Canadians, I'm going to try to work out the details for offering shipping to the US as well. The pricing will probably be about the same for Expedited shipping with tracking. So I should have it figured out soon and I will also be sending samples to the US as well so feel free to let me know if you want one. I'm probably only sending out 4-5 and one is already spoken for.

I'm interested but I live in US and I just hate waiting weeks for Canadian packs.

Also, maybe you should consider upping the dose? Instead of taking 5 capsules to get a strong high, why not 2 lol. I can't imagine anyone swallowing 5 pills in a row just to get high, it'd be much more comfortable and convenient with a smaller amount.

I'll see what people think of them and adjust from there. For some people, 2-3 might be their sweet spot.
I do want to try making hash or budder sourced caps down the road and see just how much I can get into a capsule. Main issue with using bud is that a a percentage of the oil is absorbed into the leftover bud and it's basically a loss. Budder and hash down have that problem.

I smoke a lot? Lol. I'm in a major city, not too far from CAN., actually. And have tried a friends THC tabs (small little fuckers, quite the right hook, though.) so I'd have something to compare to? I haven't done extensive reviews, because I usually just buy bud from big vendors and if the 200 people before me said it was good, and it was, I don't see much of a need to toss mine in there. Especially if I'm high. :P But obviously a specialized product would get a specialized, in depth review. :)

I'm interested in a sample if possible.  I'm a daily recreational toker and have taken a wide range of edibles, but not capsules yet.  Eager to see how they are like :)

Something like 10 people have either posted here or messaged me for samples so I think I'll cut it off here for now. I'll try to message people in the next day or so if they're getting one or not and send them the link to the listing. I unfortunately only have 5-6 sample packs to send out, but if you don't get one, you will be able to buy them soon.

Post by: 420Caps on April 26, 2012, 08:34 pm
I'll message everyone getting samples by tomorrow and try to get them out Friday or over the weekend. I've been busy getting my shipping system setup for US orders, but I think the results were worth it. Anyway, it's free so I hope you don't hold that against me. Paid orders will be shipped out much quicker.

I delisted since I don't have much product on hand now and a low shipping float. I'll have another listing up in 2 weeks and by then the reviews should be in and it will give people here a better idea if the capsules are for them.

Any suggestions on the type of strain to get next? I promise it will be good but I have a good selection of both indicas and sativas, not sure what people would more for here.

Sounds good! I would like to have the pills made with a strain that can take away my anxiety completely, but not come with any waves of my depression. So G13 is amazing for anti-anxiety IMO but if it had around 10% more "up", it would be out of this world for me.

That's pretty specific though  8)

Once things get moving I can probably offer different strains at once. So you could take sativa and indica caps and choose the exact ratio you want. But i know some good single strains for that too and personally it's my preference so I'm likely to get some. Do you have much experience with sativas? Some of those do help with anxiety too just depends on the strain.

UPDATE:

All but one of the samples has shipped, waiting for a reply from one person. All the US ones are being shipped by air mail so hopefully it won't be too long of a wait. The Canada one was shipped Xpresspost since it wasn't much more so hopefully we'll have a review by the weekend ;)

For most of them, I put all the pills all in one bag (and double-vac sealed) so the supplements may get some loose oil on them during transit but they should be fine to take overwise. Worse case, toss the bag in the freezer to solidify them. Shipping process will be modified accordingly for future orders.

I may have a small batch (~125 capsules) for sale on Friday of both Chocolope and Lemon Skunk capsules. If you want to reserve some, let me know. I might do a half&half mix of the two for that batch of orders to offer some variety and since i don't have a lot. They're both hybrids, more on the sativa side but they seem to be good for pain too. Good day time high.

Traditionally I've peppered my reviews with roughly 16 points upon which I use to claim that a product is absolutely awesome, but those reviews have been for cannabis as a plant whereas this review is about an edible by itself.

The first thing I would like to say is that if there are any strange typos of comments which appear to be to myself, that's because I typed this up in notepad before copy-pasting it over into the forums.

That said, 420caps(link goes here) product, which are cannabis capsules and intended to be edibles clearly, are quite powerful, at least with the included potentiators. I would say that my tolerance for standard edibles is actually quite high, but my tolerance for cannabis is quite low. With that in mind, I found 1.5 capsules with the included potentiators to be equivilent or better than the average cannabutter brownie.

I also made an attempt as extracting the thc from the contents of half a capsule, which is, I believe coconut oil, with isopropyl alcohol. I would call it a mixed success was I did manage to get high after evaporating it back into a liquid and then smoking it as an oil by itself, but it the process of converting one extracted form into another extracted form was wasteful.

And now that I have confirmed that the capsules are indeed active, and quite pleasent, I shall begin upon my full and proper review.

But first, two notes about this product:

A single capsule is equivilent to 0.08 grams. Given 1.5 capsules with potentiators effected me for a solid 6 hours before I had to succumb to drouseyness, it basically... it seems to be like smoking, divided by 4, but spread across 4 times the length.... so the result is identical to smoking the same amount, across a 6 to 8 hour period. Very powerful, very nice.

And the second note is a guide to my numerical ratings:
3/5 is average. Generally speaking, a 3/5 is what I would tolerate but cause me to avoid a vendor in the future. To be clear, 3/5 in a review = 5/5 in feedback.
4/5 is high-quality. This is the kind of rating that will make me quite pleased. No changes could be suggested. Consider a 4/5 to be a full recommendation.
5/5 is perfect. This rating is the highest I will give and indicates that something goes far and above the expected. Something could be learned from this.


420caps is perfectly communicative, often responding within less than 12 hours when I send him a message in the middle of the night, and within 2 if it is the middle of the day. I rate communcation as a 4/5 (great)

The packaging that these pills came within was perfectly acceptable [no details, of course ;)], with no scent to it externally or internally until the final vacuum-sealed bag is opened. I rate packaging as a 4/5 (great)

Shipping time was beyond superb. The product had to cross the Canadian-border to reach me and yet, from being shipped on monday it still reached me by the awesomely quick thursday. This is faster than the average domestic shipper. I rate shipping as a 5/5 (perfect)

Product smell is very strong and sticks to the fingers if you handle the capsules too much. It is the kind of thing that is perfectly capable of filling up a room and this isn't the kind of thing you would want on you in public. It smells distinctly like cannabutter but a touch stronger, and I'm told by 420caps that he will be decarbing his cannabis directly into the cannabutter in the future, to preserve a strain's unique scent and flavour. I rate smell as a 4/5 (great), and expect that his future capsules will be 5/5 (perfect)

The capsules do have a taste, mostly when burped after the consumption of them. It tastes much the same as it smells, quite potently at that, but it is not altogether unpleasent. Possibly consider using the contents on a piece of toast, if you find you don't like the smell. I rate taste as 4/5 (great), with the addendum that I am a bit sensitive to both taste and smell in edibles, and generally do not find them to be pleasent. This is a personal thing of mine however, so I can confidently say that the taste is, as said before, 4/5 (great), and just like with the smell, likely to be 5/5 (perfect) in the next batch.

Normally I would go over a lot of features of the product hear like the look of it as well as trichome coating and other such things, but as this is an edible those, sadly, have no where to go.

So, I will now consume all 3 potentiators and the four remaining capsules that were sent to me (the total was 6).

-6:00 Is the last time I consumed any solid food.
-0:10 Is time of consumption of all 3 kinds of potentiators. This has occurred at the time of this writing.
+0:00 Is time of consumption of 4 cannabis capsules. This has occurred at the time of this writing.
+0:30 No effects have been felt at this point in time, but that is entirely expected. It would be rather fast to feel it already.
+1:00 A light effect has begun to be felt at this point, as if my brain is being stroked with a kitten. A very soft kitten.
+1:30 I am not definitely and clearly stoned. At this point, I would recommend this product(don't forget to place the link here) highly! My single recommendation to 420caps would be to include more potentiators by request, for a fair increase of price of course.
+2:00 I now feel like I smoked a very big amount of weed.
+2:30 No changes here, really. I still FULLY recommend this product. It truly is amazing. I have nothing new to say, at this point.
+3:00 I am already beginning to feel tired, I assume part of this iis due to it being not much from what I was intending to sleep.
+4:00 This is what I meant about edibles putting me to sleep.

- Packaging 5/5
Packaging was as good as the standard set by other vendors.

- Communication 5/5
Vendor responds to communication daily, all communications were effective and clear.

- Product 5/5*
THC Pills were packaged very well, not sticky, looked and felt well constructed.

*Notes on potency:
SR users are all familiar with drugs so when it comes to potency, it's one of the main focus areas of a product. The THC pills gave a very relaxing, soothing, and slightly euphoric body buzz. The effect last about 4 hours and took about an hour to fully kick in. I took the sixth pill as well to keep the buzz going. I think customers with less tolerance would have been affected more greatly, I would feel comfortable going to work on probably 3 of them + supplements. Overall the pills were great and the buzz was very relaxing and creative. I would recommend this product to cannabis users but not THC heads!


Thank you for the sample 420caps, I'll be buying caps from you.
