All the time in the world and no iso to be found
    #26572718 - 04/02/20 07:31 AM (3 years, 10 months ago)

Thought that while I had a lot if extra time in quarantine that I'd start up a small grow again but I cant find iso ANYWHERE. Any tips on where to find it or how to stretch out the little that I have left? I have about 1/3 of a bottle of 70% iso left but I need to share it between my hobby and my medication injections. I cant even find alc prep pads. Fuckin' horders. 🙄

I doubt it will be available for several more months.  All worldwide stocks have been consumed and current production seems to be reserved for medical and government use only.

I would keep your iso and use it purely for your medical needs.

I have found that ISO was a nice pcyhological crutch, but I stopped using it with no negative side effects.

Local liquor store. Look for the strongest clear liquor. Everclear if they have it, anything over 160 proof should work just fine. Luckily I use my own distiller.

Try some local grow stores perhaps. Went to one the other day and they had 6 gallons on the shelf, 34.99 each. I still have 5 gallons so didn't buy any but maybe I will wish I had....hard time to find supplies these days.

I stocked up on grain alcohol from the local liquor warehouse.  Like has already been mentioned, it does need to be diluted a bit to get to around 70% alcohol and it is more expensive but I also use it for my perfume hobby so it's something I would have bought anyway.

Grain alcohol is a good idea, I might try that. Drove 20 minutes away to a store that had some in stock. Got there and a lady picked up the last bottle. Luckily the box opener had cut a slit down the side so she gave it to me and I got it half price. I'm only do small infrequent grows so one bottle should last me and my medical needs for awhile. :thumbup:

Pro tip: look for the imported off-brand stuff.
Ever clear may be sold out, but this shit is all over the place.

After Bod's encouragement on a previous thread, I just did my first transfers without ISO.  Still have a tiny bit, but decided it was time to step up my game.  Feels wrong, but your first day off crutches always feels a little wonky I suppose.  I'm just happy you can still find propane for torches.  Three stores before I could score a single one.  It's a great time to step up to the plate and reserve stocks of ISO for potential redirection towards medical providers anyway.

for sure. I've been doing some looking around about not using iso now. I'd much rather use it for my injections than a grow if it's going to be so hard to find for who knows how long.

I was honestly getting a bit worried about not being able to find any. There should be extra limited stock for people that have to show their rX or something. Soap works just fine for almost anything these paranoid people are using iso for but we will be risking infections or contaminating our multidose meds without it.

But even if the pharmacy kept extra stock for rX, they'd probably still run out. Last week they were all out of the ethyl alcohol to make another one of my meds and I had to wait for them to order it. Luckily it wasnt a very urgent medication and they were so apologetic they gave me a $20 gift card for the trouble.

I see 50% from time to time, better than nothing. Maybe try a 10% bleach solution? I've got a couple quarts left but I'm going to bleach next. Maybe setup a still and get a couple wash buckets going.

the occasional smoke shop will carry iso if your area has deemed them essential like mine :lol:
