    There’s more than enough of that to go around.

    Doesn’t make economic sense to process low value plants into low value extracts.

        It’s still more efficient with way less energy usage, wear and tear on your machines, and residue build up, to distill high potency strains into concentrates and then dilute that down to the desired potency, rather than chew through enormous amounts of plant matter to get to the same concentrate.
