if you want a portable vaporizer on the cheap, I recommend that Titan T1.
It's not super easy to clean, but it has a heat chamber and a hidden heat element so you choose 1 of 3 temperatures, and when you inhale the heat passes through the chamber, creating the necessary vapour. It's certainly not perfect, and the screens get clogged easily, but it's also like $50.
or don't go with a cheapo unit. I bought an Ascent and have never been happier. it has for the most part even replace my Volcano while at home cause I can walk around and do stuff without having to go back and fill another bag

It should be $1 a gram AT MOST.
I think this valuation only applies to those who strictly smoke/vape.
Those of us that use the product for edibles/extracts have no issue paying $3-$4 for that if it's done properly.
I can use shake and "ready to roll" in all kinds of different applications and get my money's worth easily.
I would pay $1-$2 a gram if it was specifically trim, but shake tends to be usable product that doesn't differ that much from what I get when I grind up buds.

Agreed. I forgot that he's paying $6 a gram for shake, so clearly he's got money :eyesmoke:

method of ingestion shouldn't matter when you're talking about price per unit. If you can squeeze more out by making edibles you're just a being frugal and probably doing what works best for you. The fact is that if they can even make $1 per gram off of stems, leaves and loose bottom of the plant buds that they originally weren't going to sell they're still doing pretty good.

I would have to see pictures of it. The "shake" I get is not filled with stems or leaves - those go into "trim".
The shake I get is what comes off the buds, after they've been trimmed and when they get put on a shaker table.

the pictures I've seen from 2 customers who bought tilray's house blends were filled with stems and leaf. not even sugar leaf. looked like dried up fan leaves with the odd piece of bud and red hair for colour.

Well, in that case I stand corrected. Shouldn't be sold at any price.
I haven't seen good pictures yet.

Not saying all shake is of low quality but when Tilray's goal I'd to stretch the little they have to as many people as possible I can totally see them (and have based on the pictures) being less discerning when it comes to what goes to the compost pile and what gets saved as trim

Pot math doesn't apply here. 10% THC isn't necessarily perceived by the patient as being half as strong as 20% THC, and because it's different strains, it's also completely different effects. I am not buying this for lab testing, I am buying it for medicating, and as medicine it's working great. Whether it's shake or ultra-crystallized bud with trichomes bla bla bla, it smokes great, vapes great, and works great. I really don't care about anything else as I am in it for its medicinal value, not its bragging rights in purist circles.

So you clearly know nothing about the marijuana plant and the cannabinoids it produces. You say you're in it for medicinal value. Reserch what cannabinoids are and where they are contained in the greatest concentrations in mj. Trichomes bla bla bla? Truly a show of you're lack of understanding. Good luck with your shake. Don't take to many Advil for your headaches that stuff is dangerous.

not trying to be a dick but, have you ever smoked or vaped high quality bud? just curious as to me, I would have a real hard time enjoying the diminished effects of trim versus the full on effects of buds. especially at the price point tilray has placed on their shake. but if you rate shake as 9.25/10 I can only guess you would rate real buds as 30/10.

I use MFLB like 20% of the time, but I find vaping to be an inconsistent experience because I never know how much THC I extracted and how much is leftover. Sometimes I'll used already vaporized herb in a bong, and it will still work great! That's why I prefer bongs and joints because you never have to second-guess yourself.

Its amazing seeing people try convince other people that the only way they can get cheap meds is if they settle for shake. Lets not forget the way these fucking companies are trying to brand it like its some high quality medicine at lower prices.

You thought you're were going to get cheaper than black market cannabis, no no you can settle for shake the new affordable commercial cannabis.

Pot calling kettle black. What medical condition did you have when you started using cannabis at the age of 12? 20 years later you have a piece of paper saying you need cannabis as a medicine? Sounds like a rec user hiding behind a piece of paper, that has no legal weight behind it. Hate to break it to you but you aren't an exemptee. Unless you have a signed form B from the MMAR, or a pink slip from MMAR, or a section 56, or registered with an LP. You aren't exempt from the cdsa. Period. The last thing I wanna do, is put a legitimate MMJ user under the microscope, and question his legitimcy, but I have a sneaking suspicion about you. If I'm wrong about your medical needs I apologize. Just calling as I see it, being "dirty as fuck" and all, I should know. Right?

Yeah I'm just imagining rheumatoid arthritis you fucking goof. Don't forget you're the one who grew 900 lbs a year for the last 5 years to divert it into the bm. Now that I call you out all the time your only defense is to accuse me of being a pile of shit like yourself. Guess what I'm not going to stop posting the truth about you. Good luck with your app.

I don't know you, just like you don't know me, but if your going to put me under the microscope, I have every right to do the same. I guess I was wrong. At least I'm honest.

That is all

Have a nice day

I didn't grow 4500lbs in the last 5 years. Either your full of shit or you're telling the truth and you are exactly as I describe you. To describe yourself as honest is the biggest lie you're told us ever.
