Hells yeah. May I ask what your weed-to-oil ratio is? I've always done 1 cup per half oz.

I did a little over 7 grams and some leftover trim with 1 cup. Not as strong as I would have hoped. I think you got the right idea with a half though. My tolerance is a bit out of control because I made a 1.75 liter bottle of everclear green dragon and drank it all in like 2-3 weeks.


I took 6 today and I feel good but I’m still smoking. Yesterday I was working on refinishing a wood floor and couldn’t smoke joints while I was there so I took 12 and just zoned into the work for like 3 hours.

I need to make them a bit stronger but I also need to find a way to lower my tolerance without stopping smoking lol.

Dope, I made some off of my avb and made gummies with coconut oil after water curing. They aren't potent but they produce a pretty good body high.

instead of capsules you can just put it in a pump bottle. it makes for easy and consistent dosing, just squirt it on your food or in your mouth directly, & you can use it to moisturize your hands as well. but maybe use another oil so it won't solidify in the pump at the worst possible moment

Nothing "cures" cancer and many of these other painfully debilitating chronic illnesses anyways, whether it's radiation therapy, surgery, weed, etc, just deals with the symptoms and hopefully addresses them in the long-term, so what's wrong with pro-legalization folks going with the same PR bullshit that the pharmaceutical industry, the medical community, and public health officials already tout as it is?

radiation and chemo are definitely not about managing the symptoms

Yes....squirt it into my hands and.....moisturize.

No bullshit though I had it all over my hands when I was filling the caps. Just rubbed it into my arms and neck and was totally loving baked. Squirt bottle is a great idea.

Pain management is just as important as directly eradicating cancer cells through radiation, chemo, and surgery when that pain destroys your day-to-day existence and THC/CBD can help strongly alleviate that pain. The whole point is there's no such thing as a cure for cancer and other painful chronic ailments and any potential solutions should be more than welcome.

Try strong indicas or sativas in a quiet controlled environment and see what happens. You might not be too affected by the difference in strains, but for me it's a spectrum where indica means intense concentration, giddiness, couch lock and sativa gives me a bunch of creative, stupid, and creatively stupid ideas. There's a lot in common though, it's not radically different for either one and the hybrids give me sort of a balance.

i notice a little difference in some weed being uplifting and some other weed being sedative, but it never correlates to something being 100% sativa/hybrid/100% indica. someone wrote a paper on this and there was no correlation between uplifting or sedative effects and sativa or indica genetics.

cannabis genetics, generally, are all over the place and the blue dream you buy at one shop is going to be different than the blue dream you get from a small grower. it's because of how seeds work. there is a plant that we think of as blue dream, and it exists in the form of clones, and all of those clones are the same. but if you buy a pack of seeds that says blue dream on it all of those plants that come from the seeds are not going to be the same as the real blue dream plant, although if the breeder is good a few of them may be similar. and it's the same with sour diesel, og kush, or most any strain you can think of. things are a lot more consistent the closer you are to california because there's nurseries out there that sell the actual plants you are looking for, so you don't have to buy seeds. even so there are many small time dealers that will just call whatever weed they happen to have by the name of the most popular strain at the time.

I’m not sure if measuring the caloric weight of thc is entirely accurate in terms of overall effect, because the plant matter acts as a balanced metabolic agent, and were really talking about the quality of the high. And we don’t really have a language for how the weed is. It’s also dependent on individual biology. Pure delta 9 wears off in about 15 minutes. So a caloric measure for 100% thc is a crappy measure because completely pure thc just wears off unless some of the resonant plant matter is left.

don't gently caress with any weed in a pen if you aren't getting it from a legal dispensary

This was before that all dropped, and it don't worry, I loving quit that poo poo instantly the second I heard about people getting sick. I'm just stating that even with flower, for some reason two enormous hits seems to do the work of 10 medium ones.

Presumably you're looking at an inexpensive, easy to use high quality portable vape that simply works well. I highly recommend the Kandypens K-Vape Pro. I tried out a friend's a couple weeks back and it's the easiest, most solid flower vape I've used lately. Should be well under $100 during Black Friday from various online shops or Kandypens too. https://www.kandypens.com/k-vape-pro-dry-herbal-vaporizer.html-

If you want what most consider the "best" without being all that portable, the Storz and Bickel Mighty is what you want. puffitup.com has a 20% off promo. I think It's going for about $250?

if you want a true portable vape, I personally use the Fury 2, but they've come out with an updated version called the Fury Edge which is the one you'll want, it goes for about $150.

If you want a cheap and butane powered option, the Dynavap M, it runs for about $60-$70. I also have this one and I use my Fury 2 almost exclusively.

I have an Arizer Solo 2 that I cannot say enough nice things about. It was a bit more expensive but the battery lasts forever, the glass is easy to clean, it heats up nice, and it's Canadian Made if you care about that sort of thing.

Don't get me wrong, being paid in cash is fine, but paying bills in cash is a pain in the rear end and it would save me a trip to the credit union.

I got This for my wife for her birthday, but have ended up taking primary custody because she would rather just puff on concentrates than do the ritual of the flower. Personally, I love it. It's quick to heat up and holds enough that a bowl and a session's worth of time is enough to get me appropriately high.

Probably an unpopular opinion these days but I still love my Magic Flight Launch Box.
It's so utterly basic, and I still enjoy it. Kind of annoying to use as a travel vape but that hasn't stopped me.
It's cheap and fun. I don't know how good their reputation is these days however.

I have a Boundless Tera and it’s absolute beast, but you *have* to do the arizer glass mod to get the best results. It’s definitely not pocketable but I can get 7-10 sessions before charging the batteries. It’s great as a bong vape, too.

Also I still haven’t been charged for the arizer extreme Q so it’s really the best Black Friday deal of all.

My husband and I have been travelling in the Philippines for the last 4 weeks and are finally going home to Canada today. That was a long tolerance break. :v:

I stopped drinking when weed was legalized because cannabis is just a better overall experience for me, and it annoys me that booze is so ubiquitous and thrust at you from all directions, but weed will get you jailed or worse when travelling outside the Canadian bubble.

Here's to hoping Air Canada starts offering THC drinks or whatever on flights in the near future.

Magic flight is a rite of passage but it's too hard to share with novices. Some will undercook it and say it's bogus and others will vape all the way through to combustion and totally ruin themselves in a single hit.

I like my arizer air, more than both the mflb and a pax 2 I used to have. It's super easy to clean and reasonably stealthy.

My enano broke again. One of the wires I did a lovely job re-soldering broke off again. And the resistor on the led broke so the light doesn't turn on anymore when it's plugged in. I'm thinking about just re-wiring the whole thing at this point.

I live by an airport so there's planes going overhead pretty often. Sometimes when I get high I think the planes are bombers and the nukes are coming.

My coping mechanism for this is to go pet my dog. It happens often enough that when a particularly loud plane goes by, he comes to find me. Good dog.
