Ok. so the answer from most is: 'so what?' or ' who gives a sh!t' I must say at first I was a bit alarmed, but now I see that almost everything has side effects and this is the only one associated with cannabis so far, so not a real PR issue for marijuana. Thank you all for posting your comments.

I think this is really bad news The lead researcher, prof. Jim Van Os works in the dutch university in Maastricht. Holland is well known to be very tolerant and it's difficult to just shrug the study off as biased. I agree that most of the awesome properties of cannabis are not studied to the...

Hi all, I have seen in the press the results of a well made study on the links between use of marijuana and psychosis. Link to the news on BBC website www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-12616543 It looks like, contrary to many studies on cannabis so far, this is a properly done scientific study that could...

Ok, I think there is enough uncertainty on the Autoclave Method that we cannot rule out it works. The only test is then to give it a try. I will try to follow the instructions using a simple pressure cooker put in a pot with oil. I will let you know how it goes. It will take a few months: as...

Thank you nl3004.kind for your take on this. I was hoping the ingenuity shown in many contributions on this thread could help in finding a way around the autoclave. I am in a very cannabis unfriendly place at the moment so will not be able to experiment, but when I'll be able to I'll try the...

Hi all, thanks everybody, but especially to Hobbes, for the very interesting thread. I was curious to know if anyone has experimented with the Autoclave Extraction described by Hobbes in message #21. Some of the claims are hard to believe but as the method is quite different from most...
