So many carts are fake vitamin E carts were not made properly. I used one off the streets and had chest issues so I stopped. The ones I buy from dispensaries are good. I feel just fine using legit ones.

This is not the fault of weed. This is the fault of not legalizing and not regulating weed. Otherwise just smoke bud.

Bud is also bad now, people are flushing the buds and stripping the thc to make dabs and selling the bud after, you’ll notice is has a chem taste, looks like normal weed, barleys gets you high

@@itsmoyzehh3873 you have no clue what you’re talking about, barley anyone presses weed on the street,they use butane, propane or other chemical in a process called blasting that take trichomes off the plant, I’m not talking about flushing at the end of harvest, legal sellers have been caught doing it as well, look it up it’s become a huge problem the last few years
$140 for a cart is insane
As soon as I heard that I went to the comments because that is a diabolical price😭😭😭
Right? I pay $10 a piece in Michigan. They have 10 for $100 deals a lot there.
i went to the comments as soon as i saw that! i just got my live resin vape from the dispo for only 45! 140 is wild!
I worked in the legal cannabis market in California, and I can tell you that if you buy your carts from a licensed dispensary, you should be fine because California has strict testing requirements. We would have to test the raw materials (i.e. the cannabis trim) when we purchased it, and then we would have to test the final product before it goes out for sale.
The big problem here is the over-taxing of cannabis products. Cannabis taxes are so high in the state that it forces legitimate producers to raise their prices to be able to make a profit. The consumer may balk at the high price at the legal dispensary and then go buy an untested, black market cart. That is where you begin to get into trouble.
YEP basically either 70 dollars for a half gram cart that is as good as a 35 dollar street 1 gram cart. It's ridiculous.
As someone who lives in California, I can agree that the taxes are a pain. Because why are paying so much for weed.
I do hear a lot of stories of fakes coming out of Dispensaries, too. Not that they're doing it on purpose, but it has happened a bunch of times
ahh well good to know dispensaries in California are way safer. that’s where I buy now even tho 1g is like $65🥲
a co worker was selling full grams $25 a piece so I had bought 3. I mean I thought hell yeah 3 for the price of one how could I pass it? well I think it was around that time I started to feel sick like I didn’t even feel like smoking anymore so I stopped for weeks. mind her I’m a daily marijuana smoker since middle school. that was crazy for me to just drop it out of no where. I think I stopped in time to where I didn’t get full on sick like this guy here. thank god insane man..
I have seen fake carts inside the legit cannabis shops .. just a certain brand I won’t mention but it’s the brand on the thumbnail. 🏹

Great episode. Cleared up a lot of confusion for people I think. A lot of demonization and assumptions are still prevalent… but understandably given the scare/risks on BM gear. I have to say your expert at the end seemed like the real deal and straight up. Like him. Def someone I’d work with if I had to.
There was a point in my life where i smoked carts to an absurd degree, while what i got was from dispensaries and i didn't have to rlly worry about bad carts i was pretty passionate about this problem. People may not remember how this was blamed completely on nicotine vapes, kids blamed it on nicotine (namely juul) to avoid drug charges and deflect responsibility and were encouraged to because of government battles with nic vapes and was the push they needed to ban flavored juuls. An interesting correlation people may not know is the research against these products are typically government ran, funded or affiliated and the state government gets a payout almost like a royalty from ciggarette companies for cancer treatments, and with the rise of vapes ciggarette companies made less money, the state got less of a payout and bans were placed on a safer (but not healthy) alternative despite the epidemic being intrinsicly linked to another product as shown in the video, while it could be chalked to misinformation and initial hysteria i found it interesting to follow the money involved.

As a EX Cart smoker, I'm very happy I stopped before anything really bad could of happen to when I was smoking during time and could of cost my life or have long term health problems.
I'm at the point of walking away myself. I only seem to end up with phlegm from cartridges and never from flower. I also tend to have crazy coughing frenzies from cartridges that I never experience when smoking flower. And it's not because I have a low tolerance for THC. I can smoke a gram blunt to the face of some fire without any problems. But if I hit a vape cartridge (no matter the strength of the THC), it sends me into a non stop cough. I only use them because of how easy they are without anyone really knowing.
It's still massively disturbing that there are people out there who think that I shouldn't be allowed to smoke or buy legal weed and cause this kind of thing.

Thank yall sm for the eye opener imma def be carefuler n alert on my carts
I remember buying a couple of things off eBay and when I got the vape it plain didn’t work, I complained to the guy that the label didn’t scan and it was counterfeit. He insisted he orders it directly from the company and he also included free ejuice. At first I tried vaping it but it was too sweet for me and abandoned it… didn’t even want his mystery juice he claimed he mixed himself. It occurred to me that buying from a stranger was a bad idea and that was the last time I did that. I was happy to buy a better vape from local vape shops that opened up, and bought supplies to mix juice myself. Heck I even got a free vype/vuse at a show (it’s like Juul) and I was super impressed how quiet and good it tasted but it was too expensive to purchase regularly. When it was all over the news I knew the issue was probably those mystery suppliers, and it’s garbage that Juul got the hit for it.
I love how they still call them “vape cartridges.” There’s a difference from cannibis cartridges and vaping products.
nah
the process of vaporizing does not discriminate if it's sugar water, nicotine, or THC. Seems fair enough to call it a vape cart. The moral of the story anyways was to buy a legitimate product, this goes for nicotine too.
@@Zarrx I think they just mean it’s confusing for younger ppl because we don’t refer to carts as vapes at all
And also a difference when it comes to huffin' on the pesticide
Not a chance, their is vaping and then theirs smoking weed.
Completely different, although the chemical levels can still be messed with and screwed up its weed.
They are different and it pisses me off they don't state that

I used to use those big chief cartridges. Kinda scary seeing them mentioned in this video.
Fortunately I get mine from a licensed dispensary, but I did buy one one time from an then-bfs friend and I hated it. Tasted horrible and gave me a near instant headache. The high was not worth the 15$ I saved in "buying local"

You first.....✌😤💨
It's legal here in California. Black market thrives on 2 things. Price due to high taxes and youth who can't by legally.
this videos really eye opening
Here is the problem, especially for people who cohabitate or rent they can’t just use bud because of the smell, where going to the dispensary for a cart is way way more expensive. If it were up to me I’d just smoke herb but then the smell is an issue for people I live around and I may be run out… I am diagnosed with PTSD and am not a fan of prescription drugs since my mother had me on way too many growing up I even have life long symptoms such as tardive dyskinesia, and I cannot function on those drugs and… they don’t help me like weed does! Pot for someone who has a medical reason should be either be completely legal and resistant to retaliation for living situation or there should be government aid to help individuals be able to afford cannabis cartridges to keep their medication low key and to not offend others.
This wasn’t a problem in Canada where we had legalization, regulated manufacturing and safe goods for the community. Prohibition is continually the problem people think is “drugs”
My names nanmannerz and I agree
Dr. Carl Hart says exactly this
i haven't heard of a single person here in Canada using legally bought 510 thread carts and having any sort of complication beyond being high as balls. frankly, i clicked on this video because it shocked me that such a phenomenon exists when the solution is easy and exists all around me lmao
@@vishnu2407 Because it's true. You have something that the MAJORITY of the population wants to use they're going to use it weather it's legal or not.
I'm pretty sure a big part of our legalisation process was because people were overdosing on laced weed and weed products. I remember hearing a lot about weed laced with fentanyl back in the early 2010s
This is exactly why I switched from buying carts off the streets to dispensary.
From a reputable dispensery. Such as Caliva
dispensaries buy fake carts too dont let them fool u
Same here
@@Sosa7one4 true you gotta know wassup or else u get played
daniel 559 it was probably an unlicensed shop. The legal shops are way more reliable as the people they do business with are actually inspected. Everything is regulated so it’s more legit .
Remember to always know someone who knows someone. It may be hard but it’s so much easier and beneficial to your health and your experience.
Things to remember
Know your local weed scene and what is going around and what is good and bad near you.
Know what color and smell to look for and what you are looking for within your strain.
Know what counterfeit packaging looks like and how to authenticate.
Be careful of mock brands and “black market” brands. Just be careful about the product you receive. It may be faked
Always remember to never blame a bad vape cartridge experience on weed overall. We need to push for the legalization of marijuana so we can educate and legalize marijuana as a whole
I remember my mom getting one of these. It was "big chief". She said she got it from a friend. I immediately recognized it as a black market cartridge and told her to toss it.
Plug I’ve known for decades even got scammed with these things. Shits crazy. Just go with flower my dudes 🎄
Did he get scammed or try to scam you? They get caught and then act mad that they didn’t know or whatever... the difference in profit is night and day
My cousin got me scammed by accident. I gave him 240 excepting 5 carts he brought me 12. I knew instantly they were fake he swore they were real they weren't they were good but all the "strains" tasted exactly the same
that's why I only stick with the venders that make their own with distillate or rosin.

You can buy thca online and its pretty safe at least you know its not a fake and it converts to thc when burned
They asked why the cases stopped showing up after an initial spike. I think the obvious reason is it was fake carts cut with fatal substances that caused tue deaths and illnesses. Once we saw legalization across the board and more legal, regulated sources, the danger was significantly decreased.

I agree and you can still get weed
@Develop Robes If marijuana is a felony in your state, the carts are a felony as well. What are you getting at?
This isn't necessarily true. If you do your research on vendors on the darknet you can buy a safe product. Just don't go onto a market and search in "carts" and then pick the first guy. ALWAYS do research on vendors. I've bought from a vendor before that has thousands upon thousands of good reviews and he didn't have really anyone talking bad about him BUT he sold me a fake Stiiizy (in his defense it was still a safe cart, just wasn't authentic like he said it was). So even if they still do have thousands of good reviews, you still don't know what you're getting exactly. Honestly it isn't even that hard, you can literally go onto dread and ask who is the safest person to order carts from and they'll just tell you reputable people. (There are really only 4-5 reputable cart vendors on darknet markets though)
Edited for typos also this" NEVER EVER EVER buy "Dank Vapes" or Exotics. Those are FAKE.
@Develop Robes Gotcha now.
@@yorgfigure6164 I have a dispensary near me. I feel you though..
This guy looks like he’s from 21 jump street and they tried to sell to him? Jesus. “Do you guys happen to have any top shelf greens?” Officer your badge is showing.
Believe it or not, we nerds love to smoke ALL the drugs.
@@hehaw4147 true! Everybody is a nerd when you like something you want to invest your time into. It’s only when something the majority thinks isn’t cool that you become a nerd and I don’t think that’s right. Not coming for you but that’s my observation. Wish I was high right now l lol
@@CPI99 Haha, you're right. At least Mary Jane doesn't discriminate!
I used to Smoke those lmao they smacked haha
He’s holding a “big chief” looks exactly like what I had now I’m skeptical 😂😂
My boy smoking all fakest street brands KingPen, Chronic Carts, Dank Vapes, Off White, and Fake Cookies and then wonders why he was in the hospital 😂😂😂
ForeverTrash kingpens are A Dispensary brand
Nick M Wow buddy never heard of an unlicensed distribution and dispensary? 😂 Just because they sell them in a brick and mortar store doesn’t mean they’re any more legal or safe or real than the next ones
@@ATrashStudio no forsure but even legal stores will sell trash carts. That's why people need to legalize in other states. In freaking legal states theres still quality control issues.
You for got krt 🤢
I smoke green boxes
"I'm so sketched out by myself, I wouldn't sell to me" 🥴😂😂💀
Guys be careful bf u smoke a cart make sure is safe and good quality. Add Kaliscanabis21 on snapchat he sell good carts. .
@@sophiemoosk9651 yo what state he located in?
@@dravidianking1298 most people who recomend sellers in comments like that are scamers, just letting you know
I grow my own, process my own, fill my own carts.
Bruh I called from the very beginning that those kids were not in the hospital because of vaping and that they were just too scared to tell their parents that they were smoking weed and THC cartridges
Vitamin E oil liquefies at body temp. You can't tell 100%, but if you roll the cart in your hands for a few minutes and notice it getting substantially more liquid, it's been cut with something (cannabis oil doesn't substantially change viscosity till higher temps). [Source: worked in a medical cannabis processing facility]
nice profile name
Yeah, real THC doesn’t melt easily like vitamin e.
Yup always do the bubble test
Do liquefiers like pyur thinner warm up and move about?
This comment is gold, thank you. I'd like to ask, how do you define "substantial"? Bc I did this with my almost-full cart (already passed the smell, taste, and eye/viscosity test) did this for about 5 minutes. For the last 2 minutes instead of rolling it between my hands, i held it upside down, wrapped in my hand, in my pocket. Kept it nice and warm. Before i started doing this, the wax was all at the bottom and the top 10% of the cart was empty. When i pulled it out, the wax was still in the same spot for the MOST part, but that 10% had moved down and to the side a small amount, and the shape of the bubble had changed a little. But at room temperature (~70degrees) it's a complete brick, bubbles take >10 minutes to go from bottom to top. What do you think? Would love to hear your thoughts.
Who goes into a vape shop to look for thc carts and says “you guys got greens?” Lmfaooo
And if they find out hes wearing a wire its a wrap anyone would believe he's a cop. Just be straight up and say yo you got any carts? Or something that doesn't make you sound like you were born 30 years ago.
Someone who doesn’t smoke?
Mannnn lmfao
That’s why dude tried to sell him a cart for $140 🤣
police
Lmao that push guy probably involve in those push carts
