// Definition
The process of purifying CBD into large, quartz-like crystals by exploiting the fact that decarboxylated CBD remains crystalline while decarboxylated THC does not, enabling separation through selective crystallization.
// From the Episode
Center Labs in Colorado produces these crystals. Mark Scialdone explains that crystallization is an excellent purification method. CBDA readily decarboxylates like THCA, and its melting point is prior to its decarboxylation point. The question of crystallizing CBDA in the presence of CBD was raised as an open area of research.
