So I don't know if this is possible but I feel my reasoning up until this point is sounds...while 95% of people never heard of crystal thc there are a select minority that has decribed this as A+ shit (different from other hallucniogens & drugs) the existence of crystal t I'm not hear to argue but I need some help figureing it out and if there could be a next step in my process or if it's all bs.

so THC is soluble in alcohol
1) soak some buds in a container of high-proof liquor(everclear)

2)allow the same soak timew as needed to make a THC-infused alcoholic beverage

3)Since Alcohol's boiling point is 173 F and THC's vaporization point is 360 F would it be possible to boil/simmer the alcohol constantly til there's nothing left, and this would leave a precipitate

I'm assuming anything from the weed that was alcohol-soluble would comeover in the mix and then boiling the alcohol until complete evap would leave a precipitate of anything extracted as well as whose boiling point is over 173F (thc is)


My other idea is that once soaking the alcohol/weed mix and the thc is broken free is there a way to do a extraction using a solvent (like dmt extraction & naptha) I'm not sure wh at type of properties would be needed to find the proper solvent or if this method would work entirely diffrent...

It's just a start but if it sounds feasible/not too difficult maybe someone could do this and find that long lost crystal THC if it really did exist.
I'm not sure what form the thc would be in but I'm assuming it would be some form of thc freebase or at least contain a high amount of thc. Anything else soluble in alcohol would also come through so t hat's a consideration as well but I'm not sure what it would be.

Is my science & reason sound behind this...any comments?

you've essentially posted one method for making hash oil. You shouldn't use everclear, i mean, you can, but get the highest % isopropyl and just make sure it's evaporated completely at the end. And yes, you can simmer it to help the process along.

I don't see any reason to do this unless you've got shwag/mids/trimmings and clippings/etc... Even with beasters, you're gonna waste a lot of herb for a hash that's really nothing special. If you wanna "extract thc" make bubble hash...that's the highest % thc I can think of off the top of the dome. When you smoke weed, it's not just THC getting you high or stoned, it's the combination of cannabinoids in the plant. This is why marinol has been shown to be generally ineffective. Remember, cannabis is one species (they are currently making the case for it to be considered two, but the logic/evidence is shaky) and the effects of different strains are the result of different cannabinoid combinations. While your extraction will pull some of these, on the whole there's going to be, to my mind, an unacceptable level of wasted product. Like I said, with trim/clippings or garbage weed, sure go ahead, it'll make some potent stuff that'll get you baked, but with any decent ganja, you're better off with the herb.

O, I was trying to go for some form of thc crystal or solid besides hash of either extracted or "pure" thc.

A friend that used to get it in the 70s had a great description of it and it still remains his favorite drug beyond weed but said it's completely different effects and much more psychoactive
I appreciate the information as I was curious about what would come out of this whether solid or liquid, all other responses on other forums had more of WTF! attitude behind them and were discouraging while to me it seemed quite similar to dmt extraction if the result was desirable. You actually explained what would happen and what should come out. Thanks for the post....so asides from the crazy long&chemically confusing synthesis of THC online, there's no way to get an essential all THC or Crystal THC

...strange as I finished writing this post I caught a scent of dmt ...strange as I smoked a little 2 - 3 hours ago...

Starting with a pure product is essential - that means either bho or quick 30 second hash using heated hexanes, light aliphatic's like naptha or good ol methanol.
bobs bho always xtalizes - no amazing shapes tho - and liquid solvent hashes baked at 150c for an hour harden and shatter nicely.
or perhaps some snazzy re-x of a synthetic cannabinoid - they have been around quite a while havent they ?

Get a kief screen.

I agree with dread, get a kief (scuff) screen or such like. This is pure THC crystals without the need for pissing about with chemicals and wasting good bud.
