First bike ride of the year! It was 55f and sunny in Chicago, so it was strange to see huge piles of snow and ice around. I couldn't wait to get on the bike, so I filled up the tires, adjusted the brakes, and went to my fav futuristic bike trail. Seems like everyone was waiting for this day, it was crowded af. It's gonna hit the 60s next week, SO happy. Looks like we're skipping Spring, which often happens here in the mid-west. I am really backed up with weed right now, probably because the weather has been so shitty. After harvesting this week. I've got over 3 pounds sitting around. I called a few people that I've got a sale for $200 an ounce if they buy more than a qp, and luckily one dude thought that was great and bought half a pound. That helps, but I'm hoping sales pick up as the weather improves. That's usually how it goes, we'll see. I hope everyone's weather is improving similarly.

If it were a good grade of mineral spirits or the other usual suspects (toluene, alcohols, ethers) it would not do that. That sort of photochemical reactivity andor oxidizability bespeaks a cheap and dirty primary refinery cut. Alkenes (olefins, oil-makers) are the usual varnish formers.
The fact that doing it right is so cheap leaves me with an itchy thought: that what was in that bottle wasn’t what the label says. It looks like improvised used-oil storage. I may have thrown the actual product under the proverbial motor vehicle.

I as well would like to be pain free. I admit that I have never found a strain that works for back pain. Or any pain really. It can dull some aches, but really just helps distract me more than anything else

Also, @cannabineer , I saw a device on YouTube that made me think of you. It’s a usb powered spray bottle that you put water and salt into, and then it applies an electrical current to the saltwater that creates sodium hypochlorite. So a nice usb powered bleach maker. About $20

If it works, that would be cool. Does the device have a readout for oxidant concentration?

No, although the reviewer is quite bright. And he said it wreaked of bleach. It would be worth more investigation, since that is essentially how bleach is made anyway.

The device runs a DC cycle, then shuts off so you can disconnect it from the power source. I suppose repeated cycles could increase the concentration.

Also, said it took the coffee stains off of mugs. Good enough for me...lol

the problem with those retail"hydrochlorous acid " electrolytic generators is that they don't have a chemical/salt bridge to separate the anode vs cathode products so everything is in the same solution;hence you get a mix of both the desired hydrochlorous acid and plain old bleach. I made one with a bridge and a DC power source;it works but it's a pain in the ass
