What you want is a FULL balanced cannabinoid profile, hopefully something with a slightly higher ratio of CBD to THC. Especially if you're needing to make tumors disappear or cure some other nasty diseases. (Do a search for "Granny Storm Crow" and read her pdf file for a basic intro to medicinal cannabis)
CBD! Prohibition has inadvertently(on-purpose?) created highly recreational, poorly medicinal cannabis to be widely available.
Find a solvent with a higher boiling point than CBD and voila. But I have a feeling you think that distilling probably leaves solvents too though since the buds would be in contact with it.

The results you get with fractional distillation do not depend on the boiling point of the solvent. When I did it I used ether, which boils extremely easily. The lower the boiling point of the solvent, the less will be in the final extract.

No it doesn't leave much at all - The solvent left over depends on how far separated the boiling point of the solvent is vs. the boiling point of what you are dissolving. If you use something like Ether, it will be long gone when you get to the boiling point of thc. If you use naptha, that has a higher boiling point and so there will be more in your final product.

Right on. was gonna try to use d limonene but looks like its BP isn't that too far off from THC's so nvm about simple distillation then. I'm still looking into it all though, I'll have enough time to learn everything I need to know about it by the time I actually get a set up.

What was your yield when you tried it by the way? I've heard it's a lot better than standard solvent extractions, just curious though.

You could use everclear, and put it in the blender/boil it to get good extraction levels. That way if there is any solvent left over, it's nontoxic. Hippies will like that. Since you are doing fractional distillation the solvent you use doesn't matter much.

I should have weighed what went in and came out to calculate yields. That might be a good way of measuring THC percentage.

You guys need to seriously visit the next most Cannabis Cup.
I don't know what you guys are smoking, but it doesn't sound like much of a clean extract.
The truth is, the world of concentrates and extracts are changing and people are switching to the old fashioned BHO, but instead using multi-thousand dollar equipment (or sometimes poorly made home devices) to purge not only butane but other impurities out such as plant waxes and more.
All this oil talk is so out of date.

I don't even know what you're talking about..How do you purge out waxes? It's called winterizing and you do it in a polar solvent like acetone or alcohol. The concentrates I'm smoking are pretty clean by the way, considering I water wash, winterize and wash with activated carbon and it ends up looking like light gold honey and absolutely no harshness.

90% of you know nothing about real cannabis and everything about this prohibition garbage floating around they 'call' weed/pot/marijuana/whatever. Them's the facts.
Some of us have had opportunities that most of you don't. I'm one who's working on bringing that information to everyone and your neighbor.
Here's another guy doing the same thing, only to a much better degree and with more skill than I have, for sure. http://skunkpharmresearch.com/ This is a great place for extract and medicinal use information on cannabis. He's posted more information as Gray Wolf over on icmag.com as well. Tons of info and Tek's. (Edit: Site-Search of icmag.com for Gray Wolf using Google ) There's a better world out there and it involves a lot of cannabis.

You're an elitist who doesn't know nearly as much as you think you do I'll just ignore you from now on I suppose.
By the way, I've talked to Gray wolf plenty, and he seems to agree with me on a lot of things.

I was referring to the world in general. The pool of 'real' information on cannabis is extremely small. Eletist? Hardly. Lucky to have been exposed to the cannabis spectrum in the extreme? Yes, definitely.

Yes, he and I have differing opinions on ultimate 'cleanliness' and they continue to use acetone. They also do not test below a certain level on petro-chems. They mainly test for the ability of the average joe to 'taste/smell' residuals in the product. In their favor, he has gone as far as agreeing that iso is NOT a good solvent for cannabis resins intended for internal use. Topical preparations are fine. 
In the end it's up to your own personal preference. I'm just helping people to not create their preferences from a state of ignorance.
