Simple crude solventless Δ8-THC synthesis, questions

[cvvvxa]

Hello i stumbled upon this on youtube and wanted to share and ask if anyone has any experience in this, or improvments since i plan to make large scale. English is not my first language so sorry for mistakes
source :

Procedure:
CBD(25g) is mixed with with P-TSA(0.5g) and placed on a hotplate set to 120C, stirred and heated for an hour. After that the mixture contains 75% Delta 8 THC, 2.5% Delta 9 THC, 4% CBDA, 5% exo-THC, 10% iso-THC.

My main question is would it be smokeable after washing away the acid with water and base and if Δ9 could be produced maybe by heating it to 70C and keeping it there for longer. I arleady seen methods for Δ9 but with solvents and i want to avoid that beacuse its a pain to get rid of liters of toluene compared to this. Also if it could be possible to remove the red color.

You must use the solvent. And other conditions with this reagent

There is a whole website devoted to cannabis extraction, which also includes a grip of CBD>D8 or d9.
PTSA is one way, I believe there is also a catalyst required.
I haven't been doing canna work for a few years and never did those reactions, but there are several paths that use different chemicals some make a lot of d8, some make a lot of d9, but ZERO people , and these are weed chemists a lot of them, have make d8 that does not have d9, and chromotography won't seperated them(what I read was a lot of solvent to seperated and the cost is crazy.

The d9 conversion is just as potent as distillate from weed, but it has a dif flavor(not that distillate has flavor, but yeah)

Further more, unless you have a grip of solventless CBD, then I don't know what you would start with solventless, because you are still using poisonous shit, and none of it is organic , even if the CBD is which I doubt(I am an organic cannabis farmer, and despise shit that's not organic trying to sound healthy). Start with bulk EtOH crude, clean it dewax it filter it, recover the solvent, and crash out the CBD, super simple as cbda will crash with no effort, and then you will be starting with a pure product
