Today I finished the first 1/3rd of the video I am doing for all of you showing CBD to THC semisynthesis. I should be able to finish the rest tomorrow I hope.

Today I covered dissolving the CBD in hexane in the proper proportion then stepped everyone through the steps to do a TLC plate on it so we can verify the purity of the starting product, which includes how to stain it to help CBD develop a distinct pink color for easier identification.

Tomorrow I will do the semi-synthesis into THC and then the final analysis to prove the end result.

I attached a sneak peek at what the TLC play to identify pure CBD looks like after it is developed. That pink dot indicates pure CBD.
