How will legalizing cannabis extractions decrease BHO explosions?

The production of marijuana-derived products, like marijuana wax and hash oil, are a common cause of lab explosions throughout the country. The risk of an explosion rises when a laboratory uses any kind of alcohol solvent. But it also rises when the people working in the laboratory are untrained.

Cannabis extractions will always be popular, as they continue to prove beneficial to frequent users with high tolerance and those with serious medical problems. Marijuana wax and hash oil can be used in a variety of ways, and this versatility increases the demand. But because marijuana is illegal in most states, many who produce it are amateurs and are not properly trained.

As with anything illegal, the production of cannabis extractions does not follow a set of guidelines to ensure its workers and the community stay safe. Laboratories for marijuana wax and hash oil products lack proper ventilation, fire-suppression systems and controlled environments. Most workers in the industry are unable to rent safe facilities, resulting in the inclination to produce cannabis extractions in their own home.

Because there are no regulations for making marijuana wax, hash oil and other cannabis extractions, people continue to make the products in residential areas. This results in deadly explosions that could have been avoided had cannabis production been legalized and regulated.

If marijuana use and production were legal throughout the country, with it would come rules regarding how the laboratories are run. Workers would be skilled and trained in safety measures. Business owners could rent out proper laboratories. Businesses selling cannabis extractions would offer it for less than the black market, so people would not be inclined to start a laboratory in their homes.

The production and consumption of cannabis extractions will not cease in this country. If anything, the demand for it will grow over time. When marijuana is legalized, workers in the industry will be skilled professionals working in regulated laboratories, and BHO explosions will be few and far between.

yea unfortunately I am going to have to disagree. It is legal and highly regulated in CO and morons are still blowing themselves up, also the fact that these large operations can not put out the quality that some of the small ones do.

yes anyone can make fire oil with fire material...... It is when you take shitty looking machine trim and turn out gold, not everyone can do that. May not be rocket science but you will still go in shops and see shitty green oil.

I work with a dispensary that has me do washes on a lot of oil that comes in because the big guys are making shit.

He's right turn on the news each night and there is another fire or victim of improper dab making. It's so bad here they made it illegal to do in city limits.

a bunch of morons out there trying to make oil.

Only because prices are still way artificially high. In a fully legalized and unregulated environment your dabs would cost a very tiny fraction of what they do now and incentive to do stupid shit like cook it inside your house would dramatically drop once supply caught up to demand.

There is garbage now, legal and unregulated would mean more cheap bastards blowing themselves up, more garbage oil being passed around the trailer park poisoning everyone. I have to disagree with you. Even legal, because its so easy to make and in your legal unregulated state, weed will be allowed to be grown by everyone so more idiots growing not worthy smoke making more not worthy oil.

I went to a concentrate cup and 1/2 the shit being sold by vendors I wouldn't allow smoked in my rig by an enemy, asked a vendor to do a flame test on it (put a tab on a dabber and hit it with a flame) and he would not, I know what would have happened if he did… a little poof of flame before it melted..

Those folks wouldn't last. And their incentive would be negligable to non existent.

Whats it cost to make oil, Power 5 or cheaper butane $4, a turkey baster at BBB, $6 (guessing) and a coffee filter, this is how people on youtube show you to make butane…. people will make their own.

And for a professional outfit doing it properly without having to deal with the bullshit surrounding the industry it would cost a fraction of that. So what's the incentive?
 
And here lies the whole problem...
It cost between 28-37¢ for me to produce a gram.depending flowering time.. An $11 oz

You have too many assholes trying to get rich quick. You know what brings repeat business? Better product at a cheaper price sold by intelligent people. It cost me less than $15 to produce an 1\8 of my hash oil or whatever you wanna call it.And that's conservative, it could cost me as low as 8$ to make 5gs


I'm all for legalization. If the broke ass fucktards that can only afford to smoke Reggie, brick, shwag whatever you call it in your area. Are paying the same price for dank bud. Or hash as mids then maybe I see people not making oil. There wouldn't be an incentive.
But I say this all the time.. Qps fly out my door at $200 all day

I think the quality of dabs also really depends on the quality of material, if you run that lower quality that @qwizoking is talking about you won't get very high quality dabs. High quality dabs comes from high quality trim/buds. It's legal here and 30$ for a gram of quality dabs(trim run) and 50$ for a gram of nectar (bud run) does not seem unreasonable, the process is not only dangerous but very difficult to master and also costs a lot of initial investment. You see a lot of lower quality dabs for the same price as high quality ones as well , you got to know where to go and what to look for.
 
Lol my product isn't low quality.
Bud is the finest.
And my oil is probly unlike any you've ever seen much less smoked..one of my favorite pics of my crystallized oil

Idk why you assume its low quality.
It doesn't cost much to grow weed, ~$10 Oz's
