Same here. I watched my father wither away in a hospital bed not knowing who he was anymore because of the toxins in his brain from kidney failure.

New York State had to lower the criteria for contaminants, if they hadn’t none of the cannabis grown would have passed the lab tests.

They are required to test for heavy metals, and various other contaminants.

I have a sneaking suspicion their samples were taken prior to the plants being sprayed with myclobutanil.

Yes it does, there was and is no mechanism in place for the state to know who was potentially affected by this. I find out about it this past Wednesday, February 8th and the first press releases went out on February 2nd.

This is why the state should be working on taking over all of the testing statewide. Baffles me why they allowed the cultivators to pick and choose what gets tested (basically self regulate) which is quite possibly what this cultivator did.

It's how I'd want to go TBH. If you get to live to that age and your choices were to go out doing what you love or be bed ridden and wither away slowly, give me the former. Not that I'd purposely neglect safety to go out, but people do make mistakes.

Sounds like he can actually get some shit done in this role. maybe even moreso than if he was president (assuming congress wouldnt have let anything through). We shall see

I've been once or twice, it is nice. I grew up in a small town in central Vermont and when it wasn't a busy time tourist-wise the traffic was like that.
For me it's a dilemma. I don't like lots of people and traffic, but I do like living near stores/my job. Can't have it both ways unfortunately.

Someone was saying in keelers bay specifically it was about a foot until 100 yards out or so, and then drastically went to 3-4”

It's a win for sure, but in practice regulated testing is far from perfect and often easily gamed. For instance producers are often allowed to submit samples from the same crop repeatedly after failing pesticide and mold tests until they get the desired passing result. I still think the only reliable way to get clean weed is to know your grower or grow your own. I'm all in favor of regulated testing that actually keeps the consumer safe but we're not there yet. Here's a comic about it:

I’ve had the ice pull away from the shoreline from the time I went out to the time I went back to get off. Luckily there was another spot to get off.

Good point, also doesn't mean it's a foot everywhere. Could be one foot thick in one spot and less in others.

Shelburne bay in early March used to always produce big slabbers.
