  1. Looking for some input please..
    A little more than eight of chemdog a very tiny amount of water got in and one small bud was removed because of mold. I visually inspected the rest and it looks ok. I know it's microscopic The question is if oil is made with ever clear will that kill anything micro that's may be in it?

  2. Everclear at 190 proof will kill a lot of bugs, but not all. I would be comfortable using the cannabis in edibles. You can process for tincture with EC then do a solvent transfer. If you need directions for that just ask. Good luck, mate.

  3. Even after heat ? What about Decarb then...?
     
  4. Truthfully, I'm not an expert and can't recommend anything but eating the cannabis in some type of edible. You are right about the decarb- 240F for 40 minutes, I don't know if that's a high enough temp to kill mold. Some mold is quite dangerous, but I figure gastric juices will do a better job of killing pathogens than the lungs. Please do some Google searches on mold or wait for someone more knowledgeable to come along. Good luck, mate.

    I saw something under tincture making somewhere.... 302 degrees for 5 minutes kills all mold. Like I said the moldy piece was removed I tore apart the bud and it had no mold or mold smell so dunno lol it was free so fook it ✌
