Good on you. If you are able to stop and look at it yes. In BM dealing you are not always afforded that opportunity. No worries though, I deal with reputable people who give a "money-back guarantee". One was a grower who always had an exceptional product, and it was fine until about 3 days in. He was shocked and replaced it right away. My point is that it can happen even to the most diligent growers.

Other than in cannabis in the Netherlands (Bedrocan) and in Canada, smoking an irradiated product does not have enough scientific data available to declare it safe or unsafe, claiming either is foolish as the data does not exist to support either side.

@zoic please see the above comment. if you have proof that smoking irradiated cannabis is safe then we'd all like to know about it.
irradiation has been tested on food and that's about it. you stae there's the science to show it's safe to smoke. please provide where you get that opinion

I started this thread to discuss the pros and cons of using gamma radiation for decontamination of medicinal cannabis, to prevent microbial contamination from fungal spores.

So I see this as a pro since I already have an auto-immune disease (MS). My understanding (limited) of radiation tells me gamma is the worst of the three, but not necessarily the worst choice for this application. Since it passes through the pot it seems less than likely you are going to have any radon gas created when you smoke it.

Snippet: Radiation sickness is the cumulative effect of all this damage on a human body that's been bombarded with radiation.

Want to know more about radiation and cannabis?

The basics

Can we talk?

Only study I know of can be found on lift. But the study was funded by bedrocan so take it with a gain of salt. I personally try to avoid anything that's Been zapped

I am not trying to prove anything. I am trying to have a discussion, see it from different viewpoints, share articles about it. This is not a static issue, it is dynamic. As new research is done and uncovered we can learn more. Right now we know almost nothing due to prohibition on research for 70+ years. They are working on new and better methods of sterilization but it takes time. I have MS, so I am at a greater risk from infection from microbes and spores, thus I have to weigh the pros and cons.

Thats not how MS works but OK. The likelyhood of you having a flare up triggered by some "tainted" cannabis is so astronomically low its negligable. You have an immune system, it just chooses to attack itself when you have a flare up, unlike people on chemo who have had theirs wiped out all together. Which is why irradiation matters in that very specific scenario. I get no one wants "tainted" cannabis. But you have to look at things realistically and not from paranoia about some boogeyman people rarely come across in a lifetime of smoking

No I do not. I think there is no discernible risk based on the info I read.

I am not sure where you saw me state that, I think that was a misunderstanding that stemmed from the other thread about dispensaries. However, if that is what I said then I am backpedaling now to ensure you understand that is not what I think. Still reading the long link at NCBI and maybe I just infer to much from the stuff I am reading. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Read the NCBI study, it goes into much greater detail, but it is very long, I am still trying to finish it.

why read something one sided?
here you get both sides at least

its your choice after all.

For the record NCBI is a special interest group ran by Gov scientists and Bedrocan reps.

I can see the GOV connection clearly but all I found (so far) about Bedrocan was they provided some pics, and product for testing. Did you mean to infer Bedrocan has a hand in running NCBI, or did you just mean Gov scientists run it.

no..in Leafly
the only way to get the true story in my opinion is find a neutral place. Lift has a few articles but they're from LP's.
go back to the tobacco fights-the tobacco companies had research done to show tobacco was not harmful nor addictive but we know that's wrong.
if an oil company pays for a study, it will be geared towards their line of thinking.

I did not know that. I thought Tilray was sister company of Leafly. I thought Canopy owned Tweed and Bedrocan. Did I miss something there.
I get a lot of info from Leafly, AllBud and High Times.

I know, it is a little out there. I really wish I knew more about how MS works. They tell us so many lies and there is so much disinformation out there if feels like you are really out there alone sometimes.

Now I think it is time for use to compare notes and see what we can FYI to each other about MS. I will be sending a PM soon.

You can't have an open discourse with these people. They just regurgitate the same opinions and don't provide evidence of any claim they make. Everything is a corporate conspiracy, no study on anything true, and they are all biologists, scientists, and experts on everything imaginable and you "just don't know enough".
