Question on Venom products

Discussion

I've seen a lot of people comment about how some brands are using the cheaper stuff (assumed cheaper quality) like venom and branding it as their own.

I guess its like "who does this and if they do this why not just buy venoms stuff instead at cheap?"

Everything here is so damn expensive I'm taking a T-break right now after I ate 2k mg's of edibles and got a silly laugh and slept nice. That tolerance is expensive, wondering after the T break if anyone here has advice on this subject.

Like if I'm buying concentrate out here to decarb into edibles is buying anything outside venom to do it with stupid?

I would say it’s probably fine to use on edibles, but if I were you I’d look more into rso, it’s already decarbed and it’s basically a 1000 mg edible on its own. You can find them for anywhere between 25-60 bucks

Definitely checking out the RSO bit. I mean rocking this Tolerance break right now (holy hell I haven't had a nights rest the last three nights) will help me out.

Thank you.

I stay away from Venom products if I wanted to dab or hit a vape pen. The reason is because I hate how artificial it tastes with its fake terps, but as well as how harsh it is on the throat and lungs. With that being said, Venom has helped me get through broke times when I was still in school; it does the job just fine. I will purchase Venom raw distillate syringes to make edibles; you can barely taste it when added into hot melted butter and cooking. Something I am unsure of is if using “better quality” distillate from another company would produce more desired effects and less undesirable effects, such as occasional headaches and nausea from edibles. Someone once told me that using better quality RSO causes less headaches, but can’t confirm if true.

I'm with you on the taste, I tried that when I first got out here and moved quickly away. Hence my plan to mix it into some edibles.

I guess I really need to get out of my old ways (having to do everything yourself) and just buy some RSO.

I would assume it’s okay to do so. I used to use black market shatter for edibles all the time and that shit was during questionable practices in the market. (Pine resin and vitamin e acetate issues)

I’m no scientist but I’d imagine baking, and de carving especially, kind of purifies the product a bit

Have you seen the brand sprinkle? They have water soluble power that would be great for making edibles because it has no taste it’s nano. I just got a little 10mg for free which isn’t enough to do anything for me but my girlfriend will prolly put it in a drink or something (that’s one of the things It suggested but you could put it in anything)

This is what makes this industry equal parts frustrating and fascinating all at the same time. White label ambiguity runs rampant by design. That's just lame as there are a bunch of middle-man markups in these instances vs. competitive entrepreneurs battling it out like in everything other industry. But I like your contemplation on this topic.

I'm going to say the hunt outside the venom walls is still worth the pursuit when it comes specifically to shatter and the decarboxylation process.

So Canamo and Debbies when on deal are better than Venom, are not Venom (haha), and are in line with Venom pricing when on deals. So thus we hunt. I'm inclined to say Aeriz is a little more dinero than all of them, but ultimately the best play of terps and clean starting materials. Some will argue.

Other than that you can get a hellfire dabbable distillate in a syringe that is game ready (no decarboxylating needed). And let's face it, that process can be "sticky af". I dig Goldsmith and Drip for syringe use, but I'm loving Achieve brand out of ANC North Valley as well. Probably fuckin' Venom tho, wfk's. Lol.

Lots of good information here, thanks for that. Working on the T break so I got weeks, if I wanna do this right, before I get back into it. Making plans :)

Awesome. We live, we do what we do, and if we have the bandwidth- we adjust against the stiff winds.

I'd say good luck, but I'd rather say - just think how awesome that comebacks gonna be and also please watch out for those weed temper withdrawals where you might want to clean some shit up or exercise or eat less junk etc...horrible side effects for some ents. 😢

Todays the third day of a tolerance that could eat 2000mg of edibles in sitting and just get giggly and sleep well. It's not been easy, sleep is like a fucking unknown thing without drugging myself (which I don't want to do). Good side effect of not eating crappy edibles/being baked is I'm saving money but holy crap I didn't realize how badly my diet was tied to my cannabis use.

I've lost a good amount of weight in three days cause, I'm just not hungry.

I'm gonna get there, going 2 weeks and likely 2 after that if I can get there without trouble, well too much trouble.
