Never heard of this stuff before. Usually any material that is pure or near pure THC is a liquid or oil.

It's easy enough to extract all the alkaloids with solvents, and do some refining by a reaction with a small amount of sulphuric acid, which is supposed to convert lambda THC into delta THC (many times more potent... delta 9 THC (not delta 6) is the potent one, contrary to juggalo bomber). At least that's what a synthesis I just read that deals with this topic said. I can't imagine anyone wanting to boil off that much ether to get to the last steps of purification (safer to let it evaporate). I also wonder whether a strong acid like H2SO4 wouldn't destroy the THC. I can see it hydrogenating cannibinoids into THC. The acid (whichever may be used) fueling an isomerization sounds like the only thing that sets this Budder apart from anything else.
