just like the guy who wrote the book for AA. Some dude who couldn't hold his liquor. The stupid thing is they don't talk about the longterm effects of bho wax. Like cancer, respiratory issues, possible brain damage. That has nothing to do with the amount of THC. Its from improperly made wax that's very contaminated. That probably why people have been hospitalized. Maybe 5% of the wax out there is properly made. No one is willing to invest in a vaccum oven, galvanized steal or aluminum tubing, lab grade butane and vaccum purge pots.
just stick with water hash (ice wax / Frenchy).
I agree with what you're saying here, but I just want to add something. First off, I'm personally not fond of wax. I find it very harsh, and the taste doesn't agree with me. It's just not a pleasant experience for me.
On the "contamination" front, keep in mind that the residual butane in wax is the very same butane that most folks burn and inhale each time they "Flic their Bic" and fire up a bowl of organic flowers. We all inhale LOTS of burned butane, and wax makers likely (hopefully) use a higher grade fuel than Bic. A hit of contaminated wax fired with hemp wick may in fact contain less burned butane than a hit of organic flowers lit with a lighter.
Not an argument in favor of wax, just food for thought. I try to vaporize or use hemp wick instead of lighters, but of course I still use them sometimes...
I'll take my organic ice water hash over wax any day...
