SAN DIEGO - On the afternoon of May 5, college student John Nothdurft was watching TV at his suburban San Diego home when a series of explosions shook the house. Around the corner, on Sunny Meadow Street, flames billowed from a neighbor’s garage.Nothdurft, 18, tried to comfort the man as a neighbor sprayed him with a garden hose. “His skin kind of looked like it had melted off,” he recalled.
In states like California and Colorado, where marijuana use is legal, state-licensed producers of hash oil use sophisticated systems that can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. But those seeking to make hash oil at home don’t have to spend that much. YouTube videos demonstrate how to strip the psychoactive THC compounds from marijuana using a PVC pipe, a coffee filter and a $4 can of butane.
Making hash oil can be lucrative - Persona pointed to a small jar retailing for $45 - but it is also risky. Odorless and heavier than air, butane can build up quickly in enclosed spaces - until a spark from a refrigerator motor or a garage-door opener sets off an explosion that can knock a house off its foundation or destroy an apartment building.
Even so, the DEA reports that at least 19 people have been killed and 126 people injured by hash-oil fires in California since 2014. Since then, officials say, the problem has grown worse. Narcotics officers in California say that the operations they encounter now tend to be larger than the home labs that proliferated earlier in the decade - with the amount of explosive chemicals measured in barrels, rather than milliliters.
Explosions have been reported across the United States and Canada. In Battle Creek, Michigan, 80 people were left homeless after one destroyed an apartment building in July 2018.
And the bullshit story of the day goes to...... Reuter’s.
They are talking about sales restrictions on chemicals because of the danger. Yet, no talk of sales restrictions on high capacity magazines or ammunition.
Do 70,000 Americans die every year because of exploding cannabis labs or do they die because of a (legal) fentanyl overdose? Priorities people!
California living: Drug needles and feces on the streets, typhus outbreaks, downtown homeless tent cities, illegal alien havens, and exploding marijuana oil houses. Such a Progressive place.
aren't there labs that do that professionally for a small fee?
Reap what you sow....
So... meth labs are ok then?
What abt AR-15s..

homemade butane labs pose a risk. There I fixed it. Also keep up with what's going on, super critical CO2 is what everyone is moving towards and it is extremely safe.
