Indica is higher in CBDs and Sativa is higher in THC

That said they aren't really that useful anymore as distinguishing terms bc most things are crossbred like mad and basically you just want to pay attention to the lab test percents and find what you like

But lol if you can't tell the difference between some couch lock and something like green crack

I got high and had a good idea, which also required being high to execute.


I brought my exercise bike into the living room last night and parked it right in front of the tv. Took a fat ol' rip off my bong. Connected my wireless controller. Played SteamWorld Dig 2 and "biked" for an hour.

I'll be doing that again for sure. gently caress that was a good time

there are some other cannabinoids as well, which all compete for receptors in different parts of the body, producing different effects. THCV is only present in small amounts but gets you hosed up and is largely responsible for the effects of really heady "sativas" (yes, the indica/sativa designation is mostly useless as far as predicting effects based on genetics/lineage but subjective indicaness and sativaness are good enough shorthands for two extremes of the weed continuum that most stoners can grasp). CBN is a breakdown product of THC and another promising cannabinoid. there are also murmurings that terpenes can alter the affects as well but it's probably all in your head, like how food tastes better if it's plated well and wine tastes better if it's expensive, imo

I have a bunch of weed that sat in a dugout for month without a good seal and I'm pretty sure the THC broke down into CBN. I smoke that stuff and it can get you really hosed up, in a good way. Great for when I need to crash and my brain won't stop going.

So, it looks like I'm going to get my medical card soon. Had something happen with my dealer over the weekend that was that wake up call that I should try and get my poo poo legit. Looking forward to access to edibles, that poo poo is gonna be great.

vaped weed has a lot of CBN in it and if you make edibles or something from weed that's been vaped to a consistent dark brown you've got some god-tier sleeping medicine that's not terribly recreational. Throw a lil fresh bud into the batch and it'll bring it back around to heavy indica territory :drugnerd:

I smoked myself retarded back in the day and quit along with cigarettes. Now Mrs. Bonzo and I have been trying edibles since you can order them online (yeah :canada:) but I was thinking of trying to vape.

what's the best "stater option" and should I use oil or just get bud? I'm mainly just looking to chill but occasionally want to feel like I am becoming part of the couch.

if you havent smoked since the olden days a tiny pinch of modern space weed is probably perfectly adequate to launch you and the wife into space without buying any special equipment. just get some bud and a pipe imo to test the waters unless you're sure you want to drop at least a couple :20bux: on special hardware for extracts

You can get aworthwhile vape that does bud instead of just concentrates for about $100. My first vape was an APX something-or-other that cost about a hundo and now I only light up a joint if I'm sharing.

There's a good thread for this in TCC but some favorites are (for weed, not extracts):

Dynavap: this is the price:performance champ ($60) and is powered by a butane torch lighter (a regular bic isn't hot enough). you heat the pipe w/ the torch and it lets you know it's ready to hit with a bimetallic click. This is much more foolproof than a vaporgenie type firevape and will give you big thick clouds w/ great flavor such as you probably won't ever see from any electric portable under $200
Arizer: Air, Solo, V-Tower and Extreme Q are all goon favorites that have been around a long time w/ good warranty and support, and all do a very good job at their pricepoints, but if you're looking at a plugin vape in tyool 2018 you should skip bags and whips imo and get a log vape like the e-nano on a bong e: argo is probably good too but it's new and I haven't heard much
E-Nano: One of these on a bong is the place to start if you want to be really impressed by a plug-in vape under $200 and you can get good deals on them used on reddit or something (check the tcc vape thread)

If you want something for extracts Yocan has a bunch of different ones at various sub-$100 pricepoints that goons seem to like. You can get a really nice dab pen just shy of $100 (I have a Linx Hypnos Zero that I like a lot) where the equivalent portable for actual weed will cost you $200+

Fair warning: Pocket-portable electric dry-herb vapes are all kind of poo poo, with poor battery life, mediocre output, and tiny bowls that'll totally ruin the stealth element when you have to repack them several times to get high. Most of the actual bud is inert matter that won't vaporize and doesn't transfer heat efficiently, and you waste all your battery power trying to quickly heat it all up every time you turn it on even though 70% of it or more is useless mass you'll throw away. These vapes are expensive and lackluster and universally outclassed in the portable role by cheap dab pens.

I got the Focusvape Tourist during a 4/20 sale that does dry herb and has a titanium nail for concentrates. I've been really enjoying it. It has a glass bubbler/water filter attachment that you can slide onto it that works surprisingly well. Can definitely recommend.

this is probably true if you're trying to be high all day every day, but for anecdotal evidence I bought a portable vape for $120ish back in December and I couldn't be happier with the purchase. I've never had to repack it to get high. in fact, I can get high at least twice and sometimes even three times after filling the chamber once.

so it depends on what you want to get out of it I guess

Do you recommend any articles on this? One of the first high cbd strains was Catatonic which was bred from Mk Ultra(indicia dominant) and G13 Haze(indicia dominant hybrid).

Indicas(edit spelling) and Ruderalis strains are absolutely higher in cbd than Sativas.

I don't understand how this "disposable vape" works :downs: it doesn't have an on button? It just somehow knows to heat up when you inhale? loving magical.

However, I have my doubts about it supposed disposability, so this will probably be both my first and last. Convenient though!

Wow bad weed “trip” I guess? I had a brownie today and saw Bladerunner 2049 for the first time, and it was fascinating at that moment and shortly afterwards. I watched a bunch of philosophical YouTube videos that showed up on my feed, like about why the universe might exist and the rise of AI. I kept on thinking of survival of the fittest and how I am in existence at this current moment in time, but maybe how I’ll never have kids, and I won’t have any outstanding achievements that will have impact on other people, and if I do, do I really want to be a model for what persists in time, and how long will it echo on for that can be easily traced back to myself?

These kinds of thoughts kept racing through my head, like everything in existence has been a branch on a tree of survival over time. It just kept getting darker and darker and then all of the sudden I noticed it was 3am. 12 hours had passed and the last several were so quick. It’s one of the first times where weed felt like it was a good experience, then has completely turned sour. Checking up on Facebook revealed a bunch of posts about depression, and the increase of suicide. Strangely, I don’t feel that tired at all and it’s 4:30am. I always end up crawling into bed and sleeping easily after one of these, but not this time!

if you get high on weed all the time and this has never happened before, what makes you think the weed is the cause and not something else going on with you or in your life?

I just really need to be careful with what I do when that high I guess. It partially has to do with my life, but also other things that will trigger it.
