are all concentrates pretty much equal?

I was a big user on vaporents and all my hobby subreddits and I love sharing what I can when I can :D I'm always happy to share! BHO isn't too prevalent anymore thankfully, but some places to have it. BHO is almost always black or dark brown so not many places have it anymore, but it's basically extracting by freezing with butane... lol yeah.
Yeah, chazz is the dark gunk that's leftover, it's unavoidable it'll always be there but it's primarily plant matter so technically the more pure the less there will be, but I feel like there's a line between $50 and $5 and some are more or less worth it than others but it's always pretty vendor/brand dependent. But you're pretty set with sugars and diamonds, but don't be afraid to try lower priced roughly equal percentage concentrates to get a sense of what works for you.
Here's just a quick google for the med: you may have comes across it
Dabbing and managing tolerance can be a bit harder but my general rule of thumb is try to wait as long as you can in the day before you start. Otherwise, just trying to stretch the most out of small amounts by doing cold starts.
Wow thanks again! So I've found sources with what I think to be good quality diamonds and sugar, there is almost never any left behind. Right now I'm on the badder and as expressed, I'm not a fan lol. But the discrepancies in some of the prices are insane. I usually find stuff in the $50-$75 range for 5 grams even up to half oz sometimes. I outta try some crumble and shatter I think. Those might be the only ones ive not tried
Oh for sure they produce way less chazz, just after a week you'll inevitably still have some. Compared to most other concentrates though where it'll be a day or few.
Yeah badder is ok but nothing special. If you're used to higher quality stuff then it'll definitely feel like crap in comparison haha! Crumble is around the same level, tiny bit higher quality but not necessarily always the case. It's mostly just drier and true to the name.
Shatter can be nicer than both but it doesn't mean it will be lol. Also all shatter kinda tastes similar IMO but it's still a nice flavor. Worth trying at least ;)
Just to throw this out there - I've actually found the best concentrates to be in batters/butters & saucier consistencies. They can be more of a pain to deal with if they're too saucy but in general the best flavors tend to follow this rule. For me, shatter and crumble are a pain in the ass to work with (for a few reasons) and rarely have much flavor by comparison.
Also on the topic of chaz - I've never experienced more chaz between any of the consistencies, only between higher and lower quality dabs. But I also dab fairly low temp so maybe that's why? The only exception I've found to that is cheap rosin - I'm guessing because the process of pressing lower grade hash leaves behind more actual plant material, lipids, etc.
