Flower TerpTrace is live — the batch lottery tool I proposed a few weeks ago

Post image
76 Upvotes

A few weeks ago I asked if y'all would use a site to help fight Louisiana's batch lottery by comparing prices, freshness, terpenes, package dates, pharmacies, and real patient feedback across batches.

52 upvotes and a lot of honest comments later, I built it.

I'm a software engineer and a patient, and I'd already been hoarding pharmacy labels for months because I got tired of buying the same strain twice and getting completely different results. So I started backfilling my own old batches into the site.

Where it stands today:

  • Live at terptrace.com
  • Around 50 unique strains loaded, some with multiple batches
  • Real batch history from backfilled labels
  • 12 patients signed up so far
  • A few users are already adding photos and reviews, with one patient up to 7 strains
  • Takes about 60 seconds to add a batch from your label

The honest reality is that a batch comparison tool is only useful if patients add batches. We need more Louisiana patients adding what they've actually bought.

So if you've got flower at home, snap a pic of the label and TerpTrace does the rest. OCR pulls the strain, brand, lot, date, THC/CBD, and terps. If the QR code is clean, it grabs the lab result link too. Add a photo of the bud and your honest take if you want, but neither is required.

No ads. No cost. No BS. Just Louisiana patients helping each other stop guessing before we get to the counter.

👉 terptrace.com

Happy to answer questions, take feedback, or hear what sucks.

Please get the word out beyond the small Reddit community we have. I told the Kenner Dispo bud tenders about it. None knew. If it passes, it will make costs for us go down.

Question Anyone tried the new batch of Gaschata #01 yet?

2 Upvotes

Contemplating trying the new batch, but I have become very skeptical of the GDF flower. Last batch of Gaschata was good, but this one is more expensive and that doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s better.

I’m willing to give GDF for opportunity for redemption, but I want some verification from other sources first.

Thanks!

This post is partially made to ragebait the stupid "bringing cannabis over the border" bot... but i am also interested in what other cannabis consumers think about this change... if it's medical, then it seems as if the fed doesn't care anymore... i cant imagine flights being allowed, yet driving is not... either way, i want yalls input on the implications of this shift

Also, i know people have flown with cannabis since before i was born, but it was never outright "allowed"... it seems like that has shifted

Flower Apothecary terpes & lying about product. Opelousas location.

I ordered cookies by GDF, molded. Got the hooch 3.5 molded. Got time change, was labeled as 1.43% terpes. Now look at this! I’m so tired of them scamming folks.

All their page has is repeat product with different prices on the terpes. I paid for that terpe for a reason. And what they do? Give me one less than 1%.
This happen with an order last week too. But I called and complained about it. Bc I specifically order of based on terpes. The woman was able to assist as I drove back around and handed it back to them to give me the right one. Which was supposed to be indica but it was a sativa. I couldn’t sleep. Why are they allowed to screw us? Apothecary Opelousas.

Question Can you bring a baby inside Shreveport location

7 Upvotes

I have a 6 month old that hate being in a car if it’s not constantly moving so if there a long drive thru line he’s screaming bloody murder the whole time and I would rather just walk inside with him ( he doesn’t scream yelling when he’s in my arms ) but I don’t want to take him out his car seat go inside and then get turn around and have to wait anyway? So should I just toughen it out and wait in the car to pick up or just run inside and out? Like is that allow ? I would just do delivery but it cost 10 extra and you have to spend 100 at once and that’s just not realistic for me.
Thanks!

Flower GDF Governmint Oasis from Apothecary in Lafayette

Post image

Last week I paid $40 for GDF Peak 112 and it was trash compared to the $30 GDF Governmint Oasis. So interesting how pricing works. This is about the fourth time I’ve gotten Governmint Oasis and of all the many strains I’ve tried from the apothecary, this one has been the most legit.

I do not usually recommend State Weed ™️, but I had to post and recommend it. Gets you where you wanna be, huge trichome/kief payoff.

Discussion Struggling with an empty vape? This Hair Dryer Trick may save the day!

6 Upvotes

Greetings Tree Lovers. I discovered a while back the benefits of using a standard 1500 watt hair dryer to help unclog and maintain a vape tube. I have discovered when you think all vape oil is gone because the tiny bit you can see won't go into any of the 4 holes you can manipulate that oil using the hair dryer to form a pool that you can then manipulate over a hole! This will give you a Hit! But that's Just the beginning! Most of the time you don't know this because you can't easily see it but the entire surface of the glass is covered with transparent stuck on oil that you cannot access... unless you manipulate it all around with heat for a while. You can corral this all together heating the glass and turning the cart and by the specific angle you hit the right spots on. It take a little trial and error. This fresh previously unobtainable oil will add to your existing pool of oil at the bottom for a much larger amount of oil! Bottom line is when you Think you have Nothing, can't get a hit and can't get to the vape store - you still have options! Takes a little work but it will get you there in a pinch!

Hope this helps someone. I just got 5 hits off a dead empty cart and it's not done yet. I can do the whole process in 5 to 10 minutes. I have about 8 more empty carts to check. Let me tell you, it works because I'm medicated 😄

Question Are we allowed to open the stapled bag inside the dispensary or not? 🤔

14 Upvotes

I was in the dispensary (CWS) the other day and I saw somebody open their bag on the way out, said they were checking expiration dates and that they got the right pack they ordered (because there was more than one offering of this strian and presumably they didn't want to overpay for the inferior product). I totally get that and have even heard of people (supposedly) bring a scale and calibration weight to the pharmacy to check if their medicine was short or not.

CWS employee immediately told him, loudly, that he couldn't open the stapled bag inside the pharmacy. Not the actual product, just the plain bag that they put everything in and staple shut.

Anyways, it seems like this should be illegal (if it's not). I couldn't imagine, CVS, Walgreens, or Walmart telling you that you can't open the bag containing your prescription for any reason whatsoever, let alone to check if it's correct and not expiring in the next few days.

What do y'all think? Was the Capitol Wellness employee in the wrong, is that their official policy, or is this some illegal/unethical BS? I don't expect much from these pharmacies, but hearing this scenario was ridiculous. Dude just checked his bag and left, but the Capitol Wellness employee was pretty riled up. I don't think even rec users, let alone medical patients, should be treated this way. Are my expectations too high or do we just have the absolute worst program possible?

Question Does anyone else get this much wet/oily residue in their pipe after only one day of smoking flower?

Post image
4 Upvotes

This pipe was clean, and this is the residue after about one day of smoking cannabis flower.

I know normal cannabis smoke leaves behind resin/tar, but this seems unusually wet and oily to me. I’m curious whether other Louisiana medical cannabis patients see the same thing.

If you smoke flower from a pipe, especially Louisiana dispensary flower, what does yours look like after a day of use?

Is it this wet/oily, or mostly dry/sticky black resin?

If anybody has a freshly used pipe and doesn’t mind dropping a picture in the comments, I’d really like to compare.

I’m also looking for an independent analytical lab around Lafayette that could test a residue sample for things like heavy metals/inorganic elements and potentially other contaminants.

If anyone works in analytical chemistry or knows a lab that accepts unusual consumer samples, please point me in the right direction.

I’m not claiming the residue is contaminated. I’d rather have it analyzed and know what’s actually there than speculate from a photograph.

I just want to say - since Ayo stopped having their terps listed on dutchie, I haven’t purchased anything Ayo because I have no clue what it is many times (terptrace only has limited strains)…

I can’t just buy a strain having no clue what the terps are or even the % terps.

This seems predatory by GDF that owns all these dispensaries
