// Definition
The misconception that decarboxylation only happens at elevated temperatures, when in reality it is a continuous process occurring at all temperatures including room temperature, during curing, and even in storage — just at different rates.
// From the Episode
Discussed in detail with Mark Scialdone and Skunkman Sam: 'Got to remember that decarb is happening... room temperature, decarb is happening. When you cure your weed, decarb is happening. Decarb is always happening.' The conversation included discussion of THCA crystallization where the audience asked why decarboxylated material could still be solid, and the panel addressed the relationship between THCA crystal structure and decarb states.
