Why would you want crystal THC? You guys realize that THC is potentiated via other available cannabinoids in marijuana? Hence the reason, marinol (dronabinol) won't hold a candle to weed.
If you want crystal THC:
google "THC Synthesis - Overview" the first result is the synthesis (if the site is still down, click "cached"). Have fun with that synth.

I don't have the equipment or chemical knowledge/experience to perform the synthesis I've found. But at the same time I'm not trying to synthesize anything I'm trying to extract. People extract dmt from the plant but they don't to a chemical synthesis...this would be the same process via boiling point as opposed to acid/base extraction...unless someone has improvements to the method or any experience in this process
and at the same time why wouldn't I want it? to possibly figure out how to extract this on my own and then be able to utilize it if it is similar to what I've heard or to catch a buzz off it cause it will contain thc I believe...I can't see why I wouldn't want to do that? if we can try to ex tract one chemical and be cheered on why would it be strange to want to extract another?

Some people think that some of the cannabinoids that are created in the plant work together in a certain synergy to create the unique high associated with marijuana.

I think you folks are getting your terms mixed up.
Crystal T form the 70's & 80's was not THC crystal. It was much closer to PCP.
THC really can't get much stronger than hash or keef.

^^He's right:
We have only heard the term 'Crystal T' used to refer to PCP. PCP has been used as an animal tranquilizer, so I wouldn't be surprised if that's what the substance was. It's extremely difficult to identify an unknown substance from a single description of its effects, but from what you write, it seems most likely that it was PCP.

listen guys I've had the thc vs pcp discussion on here before in numerous posts...while many people never heard of it, t here are a fwe that have.
I know someone that had experience with both pcp and thc and I trust his knowledge based on past experience...you don't have to but I know hash or keef is not t he strongest form of thc, while other cannibinoids work together w/ thc to give you a high from weed I'm not talking from a high from weed...why am I being so discouraged from attempting a new technique of retrieving a possibly retrievable ...it's not like I'm trying to make something extremely hard like acid and that's why I wanna see if the method I posted sounds accurate to science cause if it is sounds then maybe I'll pursue it
but shit guys telling my to make keef or BHO or hash over and over again when others have already said it is pointless...I know what these items are and if I wanted to pursue that right now I would but I don't. If you can't offer assistance as opposed to telling me either my terms are messed up or giveup/there's no point then you don't need to post it, others have and it was quite uninformative. If you can't help me with relative information don't try to discourage me either.

Using alcohol is an old technique that works poorly compared to BHO. Acetone works better than the alcohol yet brings out unwanted taste.
I doubt if there has ever been pure THC sold at street level. It was mostly acid coming from Berkeley at the time. The Brotherhood was concentrating and refining oils in order to smuggle in the biggest buzz in the smallest spaces. If anybody, they probably would have had the THC. When the laws were relaxed on pot, while extracts remained a felony, they pretty much disappeared.
Many compounds have been sold as THC. It's like drinking beer out of a empty bottle of scotch. Refill it with wine instead of beer and one will say " This isn't scotch".

but ur terms are mixed up.
But I'll do it ur way.....
yes you can invent a new unknown way of making thc stronger.... GO FOR IT!!

OK, let me get this straight cause I obviously havent yet.
Are you trying to extract JUST THC, or are you trying to extract pure cannabinoids. No contaminates? If so my idea is just buy a vaporizer and save the vapor maybe it'll condensate.
I'm not trying ot extract anything "pure" as that would be extremely difficult without lab equipment...I was trying to determine a way to move the thc into the alcohol solution (since its alcohol-soluble) and then I was hypothesizing that when the alcohol would be evapped sompletely there would be the chemicals that were dissolved in the solution but that boiling point hadn't been reached when the alcohol was boiled. (173 F< 360 F) and there would be a solid left over...this was just a guess...My other idea would require some type of solvent then added to the alcohol mix to extract any thc from the mix and then you could remove the solvent and recover the thc(and other chemicals from there)
while I know a vaporizer wil vaporize all the thc within the buds from my understanding smoking thc is a much different high. Sadly onone's heard of this crystal thc since the 70's but my friend was experienced with this "crystal thc" and powdered pcp and was aware the thc wouldn't dissolve in water cause it was tried...while pcp was water soluble and shootable the thc was not.

NO YOUR ALCOHOL METHOD WILL NOT WORK.
Be happy with BHO which is the purest your going to get. Put it in a gel capsule and there you go.
Fuck man, please, give it up. We dont want you to be crushed when your bomb is wasted!!
"fairy tales?" Did I post this as a factual method or a possible idea? shit certain people act like if they don't agree it must be made up or act like I said this was an exact method...shit I asked a question and asked for constructive support...man people try to flame for BS
I'll look into BHO, I think a few plants turned male...I think I'd be able to use that but I'm not sure...there's nothing wrong with searching for possibilites, that's how we have methods that are standard today, someone thought of an idea that made a little sense and built upon it. This is why I posted the question...for people with more experience to see if the method was possible not as a method for people to try...as everyone seems to think it will not work I won't keep pushing it

ok here goes guys
soak the material in some acetone ...for about a week with occasional shaking
strain the material and throw it away.u could do a 2nd portion extract and combine both,evaporate some solvent if the volume is too much
add some glacial acetic acid and stir well.keep aside for about a day or lightly warming it to accelerate the rate.If heated too much he thc can degrade.
now evaporate the acetone and we'll be left behind with thc acetate and acetic acid.
just like a non polar extraction grab a separation funnel and extract the solvent layer while discarding the bottom acid layer.heptane works good for this.
finally evaporate the haptane to get your thc acetate

It would be full of impurities..... the longer you soak weed.... in solvents...the more impurities are stripped away. why butane gas is best...very quick and olny gets the trichs....nothing else
