Hey all!

Does anyone remember Dragon Fire Glass? (DFG, their sticker was a maple leaf or pot leaf iirc and it was usually on every piece)

Made all kinds of pieces back in the early 2000’s. Briefly had a shop in Ontario Canada, but sold all around Canada and the US. Small business but glass packed a punch. I’m hoping to hear from some people who would’ve owned their pieces. I used to find old reviews online but as time goes on I can’t find any anymore. Known for having the perfect bends and curves in their pieces for a chilled smoke.

Thanks! 💨

Hey guys, I’m a student at UBC. I’m trying to go on a small solo vacation after my finals in December to try some interesting BC weed. Lmk your recommendations.

For the majority of my cannabis related news I visit Stratcann, but it would be nice to hear some audio or video versions of the news instead.

Does anyone have any recommendations for good cannabis related channels or podcasts? I'm most interested in the latest news and less so in bud reviews.

Thanks and check out Stratcann if you havent already!

Is there any bar cafe patio or whatever recommendation to have a coffee and a blunt? Near Toronto (north York?) I’m a newcomer

I'm trying to find a replacement bubbler mouthpiece from Illadelph. I'm located in Toronto and T.H.C closed so I'm at a bit of a loss of which shop might have something like this or where I could even find one since they're sold out online now. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

How much does a license for personal medical cultivation cost in Québec? I am currently waiting on my telemedecine appointment via wemedic.ca. My doctor is pretty old-school and I don't even want to bother asking her. I am wondering if its possible to get a licence via wemedic without my family doctor brought into the process.

I'm asking for 1g a day which is 5 plants.

What is the renewal fee and is the renewal easy to do or a hassle each year?

I'm guessing everything here in quebec will be complicated and expensive since its not legal for the public to grow at all...

Any quebecers here that can give me info?

Thanks

Whoa... this strain is something else. I'm a really heavy user.. the type that doesn't get high.. its literally been years since I was high despite smoking daily... but wow this strain is kicking my ass!! Aurora just started offering it recently and it arrived today.. I've got less than half a gram in my Arizer EQ, rocking the balloon.. just sitting on 200 degrees right now, just had bag #3.. I think I can officially say I'm high!!

I want the the best hash! Looking at iamcafe now. Where else should I look?

I've been going with the Alien OG Disty Dabber 1.2G @ 83% THC fully decarbed for ~$38 at the local dispensary. Similar price points are the Glacial Gold Max THC and Glacial Gold Max Balanced drops with a similar amount of decarbed THC and THC/CBD, respectively, in coconut oil.

Grey markets are about 25% cheaper for distillate, but I wonder about the quality control. B:uying discount OZ's from the local dispensary for <$100 and processing it for ingestion is significantly cheaper (~$10/G THC theoretically) but it takes time and effort to do properly without wasting any, especially if you don't want to eat all the plant matter.

If this is the case, they sell Afghan Hash that is ~ 25% THC 25% THCA for $10/G.

At dispensaries, the cheapest most convenient THC is $38/G.

Somewhere in the middle is $20/G of THC after decarbing Afghan hash.

Cheapest, but inconvenient method, unless you want to consume all the plant matter, is decarbing discount OZs of flower @ ~$10/G of THC.

I'm curious if anyone has found a better way of saving money at legit shops.

2 months ago, I came across a Utillian 8 eRig review that provided a look at its features and performance (the review video is funny). Additionally, Sneaky Pete offers a comprehensive breakdown of the U8, including a comparison with the Puffco Peak Pro, which I found particularly insightful. For those interested in a visual comparison, there's also a solid video review on YouTube that covers more details between the two rigs.

After watching those, I decided to buy the U8 for myself. Now, after using it for a couple of months, here’s my honest rundown of the pros, cons, and overall experience.

https://preview.redd.it/trbvggn5mg0e1.jpg?width=1500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cd25fccaf1e77528d90f0c90e5d8e819700c37ea

What I Like:

1. Design & Build: This thing looks and feels great. It has a fabric like cover over a plastic body that gives it a unique look and actually makes it easy to hold without worrying about it slipping. Plus, it’s nice to have a device that doesn’t look like every other rig out there. The removable cover adds a bit of customization, too, so you can go with or without it.
2. Minimal Heat: One of the first things I noticed is how little heat is felt while using it. Even during long sessions, the U8 doesn’t get uncomfortably warm, which is a big plus for me, especially compared to some other rigs that can get too hot to handle.
3. Performance: The vapor quality is surprisingly good for a device in this price range. The hits are smooth, especially on the first couple of draws. I tend to use it on the lower heat settings, which really brings out the flavor. The U8 also has a solid battery life, giving me around 30 hits per charge. Back to back sessions I would avoid as it gets too hot. I always give it a break after the second session back to back. 
4. Easy to Use: It’s got a simple one-button interface, which makes it easy to operate. The heat settings are straightforward, with LED indicators around the button that let you know what level you’re on.

Included 3D Chamber: Unlike the Puffco, which charges extra for the 3D chamber, the U8 includes it in the box. The 3D coil heats from all sides, which I think really adds to the vapor consistency.

What I Don’t Like:

1. No Temperature Control: This is one of the biggest cons for me. The U8 doesn’t have temperature control.. The U8 just delivers steady power to the coil, so if you’re not careful, the temp can spike, and the vapor gets harsh toward the end of a session. It’s not a huge issue on the lower settings, but it’s noticeable if you like higher heat.
2. Limited Battery Features: It has USB-C charging, which is great, but there’s no pass-through charging, so you have to wait for it to charge fully before you can use it again if the battery dies mid-session.
3. Consumable Atomizer: The ceramic atomizer is a consumable part, so depending on how much you use it, you’ll need to replace it. It’s not a huge deal for me, but something to keep in mind if you’re expecting a longer-lasting setup.
4. Slight Learning Curve: It took a bit of trial and error to find the heat settings that work best for me. The presets are nice, but I find the heat range can vary a bit, so it’s worth experimenting to see what works best for your taste.

Pros:

• Unique Design & Build: The U8 feels different from other rigs I’ve tried. The fabric-like cover gives it a nice grip, and it’s a refreshing change from the typical glossy or matte finish. I actually like that I can choose to use it with or without the cover – it’s small, but it adds a bit of personality to the rig.
• Minimal Heat Transfer: One thing I immediately noticed was how cool it stays during sessions. Even if I’m using it for a bit, I’m not worrying about burning my hand when I pick it up. Compared to some other rigs that heat up fast, this was a nice surprise.
• Smooth Vapor Quality: I wasn’t expecting the vapor quality to be this good, especially for something at this price point. On the lower heat settings, I’m getting solid flavor, especially in the first couple of draws. It hits smooth, which makes for an enjoyable session without too much harshness.
• Solid Battery Life: I can go around 30 hits on a single charge, which covers me well for the day. Plus, I appreciate not having to charge it constantly – it’s easy to just pick up and use.
• Easy to Use: The one-button design is as straightforward as it gets, which I appreciate. The LED lights make it clear what setting I’m on without guessing, and it’s quick to get the hang of.
• 3D Chamber Included: A nice bonus – it heats from all sides, which I think makes the vapor more consistent. I’m glad I didn’t have to pay extra for it, like with the Puffco.

Cons:

• No Precise Temperature Control: One downside is that there isn’t precise temp control. It just feeds steady power to the coil, which can make the vapor a bit rough toward the end of a session, especially if I’m using a higher heat setting. I’ve adjusted by keeping it on lower settings for smoother hits.
• No Pass-Through Charging: While USB-C charging is quick, it doesn’t have pass-through charging. If it dies mid-session, I have to wait until it’s fully charged to use it again, which has been a minor inconvenience when I’ve forgotten to charge it.
• Consumable Atomizer: The ceramic atomizer will need to be replaced over time, especially if you’re a frequent user. It’s not a big issue for me, but something to keep in mind for longer-term use.
• Slight Learning Curve: It took me a few tries to figure out the best heat setting for my taste. The heat ranges vary a bit, so I had to experiment to get it just right. Not a deal-breaker but something new users might notice.

Bottom Line:

For the price, even at the original cost, the Utillian 8 is honestly a decent option, especially if you’re not trying to drop $400+ on the Puffco Peak Pro. The design is unique, it doesn’t heat up too much, and the vapor quality is solid for everyday use. But for those who want a more budget-friendly option with good performance and a sleek design, the U8 is worth considering.

its so gross.. I don't typically "review" strains.. but this one is SO BAD.. I've got it in their vape cart... its so gross that I don't even want to smoke it.. I love their other carts.. blueberry is amazing.. strawberry is a beauty of a night cap... but my god.. that honeydew is disgusting!!!!

Are any of you on Vancouver island?

Girls have a couple more days of swinging on the line and a visit from the stylist for a trim of the bush and into nice cozy masons for a spell. Was a good year 5 meter OG Kush in the Toronto sunshine! Hope you all fared well thus season. Cheers!

mine keeps shooting hot wax back into my mouth and its get annoying i store it upright so idk why it keeps clogging.

I'm not knowledgeable about weed in general, but I heard that there are weed advent calendars? I'd like to maybe buy one or two as gifts, but it seems like there's not a lot of selection online. Am I already too late to buy one?

Alternatively, what is something I could buy as a gift for someone who is a heavy user of edibles, vapes, and flower?

I'm currently in Vegas for a trade show. I went to a local legal dispensary. It was clean, nice (but not over the top fancy), with a good selection and friendly staff. Everything is good until I see the prices. Holy SHIT is weed expensive here!! I picked up a .5 gram disposable vape. It was $50. That is at least double the price in Canada, not to mention exchange.

I thought it might be because things are still new. Nope. Turns out they legalized in 2017.

Enjoy your legal, decent priced weed folks.
