bud is either a terrible watery american pale lager or marijuana sold to you by a creepy drug dealer who also sells unregistered assault weapons and underage prostitutes

flower is a clean, medicinal product taken from a cannabis plant

yeah, i try not to think too hard on our forever-evolving american slang

Do you hold your hits for a certain amount of time or just exhale immediately? I try to hold it for at least 5 seconds which is probably pointless. I've heard it both ways.

I hold for a second or two but that's typically because I feel it hitting my brains and I gotta catch up with what's actually happening

I think your lungs take in everything they are capable of as soon as a chemical enters. Lungs aren't like empty bags, they're super porous so it's not like if the smoke hangs around in there it'll find new surface area to stick to.

I think what you get immediately after inhale is all the chemical uptake you're going to get and anything beyond that is just damaging the tissue for no real effect. Am I wrong here?

its called that in every store ive been to in like four different states plus canada, and in every media article about the weed business so i think theres a bit more to it than that


yeah but we smoke them before that point. and also everyone called it "buds" until like... 5 years ago? it was a sudden transition, definitely associated with legalization, but its weird and it happened so fast and on such a large scale that it seems like there's some agenda or purpose behind it. like some marketer somewhere decided that the word "flower" is more amenable than "buds" to the normalization and gentrification of the weed industry or something

Yeah, beats me too. I'm sure it's a marketing thing.

I've heard that as well, but then how does shotgunning work? Like, not "lit end in your mouth" shotgunning, but the regular "exhale into someone's mouth" style?

I wish I knew for sure. I'm having a long debate about how that works VS my low rear end heart rate and how much blood is passing through to pick up whatever is in my lungs.

i have an instinct to hold in concentrate vapour until it's all absorbed. unlike smoke, that vapour is pure cannabinoids and terpenes with no combusted particulate matter etc. so if you're still blowing out a cloud on exhale, you're wasting.

the problem is that you really need iron lungs to hold in concentrate vapour until full absorption, because that poo poo burns worse than smoke the longer you hold it in - just remember that as long as your lungs are burning cannabinoids are being absorbed, so just persevere until your autonomic nervous system forces you to exhale.

I live in fear of this. Does it ever go away if you take a long enough break? Like, years long? Does CBD still trigger it?

Not sure, it just started happening this year. Gonna stay sober until 2019 and then try a bit and see how it goes. For reference, I was smoking literally every day practically constantly for like 7 or 8 years before it developed

from what ive heard it has to do with thc building up in your fat cells and then being released later on causing you to sort of get overwhelmed, triggering the nausea

if that is the cause then cbd shouldn't contribute to it because the problem is caused by thc's effects. but im not a doctor!

california's implementation of legal weed is kind of strange. in the other legal states you can just walk into a place, buy a preroll, and walk back out like you are buying a product in any other kind of store, it takes like 5 minutes. everywhere i've been in CA you have to go through some tedious registration process and become a "member" of wherever you are buying weed from. and then you also have to carry it around in a special little bag for some reason?

on the other hand, SF has the first dispensary i've seen in the US where there is an actual lounge for you to hang out and smoke, which was great when i was having a real poo poo day yesterday and finally just had a place to chill and listen to music and get high. hopefully they open some like that in LA soon

In Vegas they also try to sign you up for their system too but it works out because most places set up a type of point system where you can get free weed once you collect enough.

We also have the special bags like you mentioned, which you also get extra points for returning them once you're done.

I don't think it's necessary to sign up to be a member but I'll be dammed if I'm not gonna take advantage of free weed points.

My main place also does free delivery if you are a member and spend over $100. They usually get here within an hour, not to bad.

Only problem with Vegas is that it is currently more expensive than places like WA. Glad that I'm moving, I can't wait to check out the Seattle scene.

yeah that sort of thing is great if it's a local dispensary you are going to as a regular, but kind of annoying when you are traveling and just want to stop in to buy a joint real quick

Colorado has, in the places I've lived/spent time in, really capitalized on how easy it is to get from the purchaser perspective. Hotels, concerts, there are businesses in Denver that are basically party vans you rent that take you to different dispensaries and such. Weed tourism is a thing in a big way here, I would expect that eventually other states will follow, same way as the price was high here and then dropped significantly over a couple years.

Meghan Markle's Oregon nephew is using the royal wedding to sell weed

http://www.oregonlive.com/trending/2018/05/meghan_markles_oregon_nephew_i.html posted:

If you are about to marry one of the princes of England, suddenly all your distant relatives want a piece of that sweet royal spotlight.

Take, for example, Meghan Markle's half-brother's son, Tyler Dooley, 25, of Grants Pass, who is using the upcoming nuptials of his half-aunt to sell a cannabis strain he is calling: "Markle Sparkle."

The strain, a Sativa hybrid, "makes you feel positive, happy, and energetic," according to Leafbuyer.com.

"It is uplifting and has been known to create a tingling body sensation of numbness," the website adds.

Markle Sparkle is a hybrid of three strains: Blue City Diesel, Blueberry Northern Lights and a "third secret strain" that will be revealed when Markle Sparkle is launched June 2 at the High Times Cannabis Cup Northern California.

That's right: Though Dooley is "a licensed medical marijuana grower in Grants Pass, Oregon who is legally growing the special strain of marijuana in honor of his aunt," according to a press release from Leafbuyer.com, the strain will first be available in California.

A spokesperson for Leafbuyer.com said over email Wednesday that Dooley is looking for an Oregon distributor for his royal strain.

"It could be for sale in Oregon within the next few weeks if all goes well," she added.

Markle Sparkle is grown in Grants Pass and in Northern California.

While Dooley is using his connection to almost-royalty for marketing purposes, it seems clear that his part of the family is not very close to the future probably duchess and will not be attending the wedding.

Dooley's dad, Thomas Markle Jr., recently sent a letter to Prince Harry saying, "As more time passes to your royal wedding, it became very clear that this is the biggest mistake in royal wedding history."

In the letter he called his younger half-sister a "jaded, shallow, conceited woman that will make a joke of you and the royal family heritage," adding: "Not to mention, to top it off, she doesn't invite her own family and instead invites complete strangers to the wedding, 'who does that.'"
