I'm not a heavy smoker so I've stuck to just using THC vape cartridges as they're quick and seem to last forever. Usually I go with the Sovrin brand because it's easily available and seems like a decent quality product. I don't see people here talk much about these type of cartridges, usually it's either the dried plant or vaporizers. So every time I get a sore throat or chest I get paranoid that I'm smoking something wrong. I'm just wondering if anyone here knows if there are known issues with these concentrated oils.

Sometimes they're made from bud that's not so great. Sometimes they're awesome! You can usually tell by comparing the price and clarity. You can also just ask, the budtender should be able to roughly describe the process behind the stuff they're selling. Unless you're buying them at a gas station, you don't have to worry about the same adulterants you did a few years ago. Inspector Hound fucked around with this message at 05:16 on Oct 26, 2022 |

I got quite wrecked last night, and found myself ordering a Sneaky Pete Sidearm at 3am. It's a Biao clone, and after seeing a couple of videos of its use I knew I had to get one. It's going to be my new outdoor piece, and I have a perfect sized padded camera lens case for it,

If you feel like carts are clogging up your lungs it can help to find the lowest wattage it'll fire at, or pass it through a dab rig sized water piece

Can someone link me to an affordable bubbler or whatever (to cool the smoke) that I can use with my fury edge? I end up coughing a lot and I'm sure it's not good for me. If I dial it down to 375 I don't cough but then I'm not getting the full hit! I do have the water pipe adapter.

Unless the license is in a valuable state that has limited licenses and your goal is to purchased in 18 months (at a time when pot stocks are down so hard that capital is a pain in the rear end right now), do not start a plant-touching cannabis company until SAFE banking exists 1. As a W2 employee, your banking is fine. If you are an owner, your bank could drop you. If you own a home or want to purchase, the income you get from being an owner of a cannabis company does not count. Due to federal illegality, most mortgage types that have to do with Fannie / Freddie Mae will not work with you. As a W2 employee, it's legal but some banks or mortgage brokers don't want to deal with the hassle. 2. If you come from a functioning business with a normal tech stack, good luck! Cannabis tech is about 20-30 years behind everything else. 3. In most states there is MASSIVE price compression happening. A lot of new production facilities came online in states over the last couple of months, and there is a glut of biomass at the moment. A small-scale craft grow is doable, but still risky. 4. 2K is the business license. Do you have the cash for a full grow build? They're pricy as gently caress. Do you also have the cash to float between the time of getting the license, getting your grow inspected and approved, getting plants down, and then the time it takes to get plant ready for sale? Can you afford your first couple of batches to potentially come out as absolute poo poo and continue to do phenotype hunting? 5. Do you have retail connections that'll help you sell? There's a LOT that goes into a cannabis business. It's hard to raise money, has major tax structure implications, and can have a real effect on your personal life.

for 510 carts my experiences are select: v good, minimal clogging apex: good, slightly more clogging church: complete trash that clogs if you look at it wrong. also tends to give me a headache more often than not and they tend to be very thick so you have to use a higher wattage rythm: pretty mid, they do the job not sure which ones are local but these are all from MA. right now I just grab whatevers on sale at the place i get deliveries from

There are some brands (I.e Select for Curaleaf and Rhythm for GTI/Rise) that are on sale in multiple states, but they’re all made in their respective states, so who knows if they’re the same in two different states.

This would be non-US so some of these items don't apply. The new medical law where I live is a federal law. Banking here is a huge pain in the rear end (I spent three hours at a bank yesterday lmao) but there shouldn't be any legal issues with banking. I do have cash for a small grow build. I also have another company that's not in the weed business so I wouldn't be living needing to live off of it. The answer to number five is a big fat no for right now. I'd basically want to be growing for my own use, but then selling the excess if I can do so legally and profitably. Hellblazer187 fucked around with this message at 21:22 on Oct 26, 2022 |

Good luck with it! I don't know enough about the international markets to give other advice, but would love to follow your journey if you decide to do it. I'd recommend talking to a local cannabis lawyer, as I'm guessing there's still going to be weird compliance stuff.

It's very well built, looks beautiful, and... yeah, it lets you hit three carts (or 1, 2 or 3 of the included concentrate dishes!) which is mega nice for people like me who make good decisions e. Also, while you are giving Hamilton money, buy a Daypipe (if combusting makes you feel good). Holy poo poo it's incredible, and I already bought one as a gift which is still being raved about lol 6 chamber weed revolver!

There won't be any cannabis specialist lawyers I don't think, at least not for a while. The law was passed in March and the regulations were signed three weeks ago, but they don't go into effect until they're published in the official "stuff is law now" newspaper. So nobody knows what the final regulations say yet, besides like, the president. But I know several business lawyers I trust so I will absolutely talk to all of them if I go for it. Thank you!

I skipped out on weed for two days and I'm not sure why really. I had one brownie at 10:30 last night when it was clear I was not going to fall asleep. I was loving out by 11:30. Not sure if this is bad long term, but it's hard to argue with results. During the week I just cannot compromise on sleep and this loving works for me.

I vape to get myself to sleep every night except Friday and Saturday so as to give myself a break and help reduce tolerance buildup. I figure if I have a crappier night on those nights it doesn't matter that much because I can sleep in. I'll take regular, proper sleep as much as I can, thanks.

I use weed for my Tourettes, I'm genuinely unsure the mechanism for how it works It could be as simple as just letting me get good quality sleep, it could be stopping generalised anxiety it could be something more direct and targeted towards the unknown mechanism of Tourette's in general Point being , if it's working , and you can hand on heart say it's not negatively impacting you significantly then , well , go wild I vape/edible a threshold dose pretty much every evening

Still combusting in my dynavap most of the time. Haven't mastered the one hit extraction yet so I tend to heat up past the click, count to 3, then hit , let cool til it clicks and go again. Using a triple torch but one of the jets is funky so it's mostly a double torch.

The single hit extraction is tricky to do stock verging on impossible, I can't recommend the FMJ enough for this The thing to make it click for me was the rough temperature approximatation by way of where the flame is directed on the cap. Closer to the tip is lower temps , near the pen lid thing is temps that verge on combustion

How many hits should I aim for? I can do two but it's burnt on the second. And I think a water piece would help with pulling bigger hits but I haven't got one right now.

Anywhere from 2 to 4 with an FMJ for me, just depends on how tightly I pack the bowl also, you don't need to grind up your weed for a Dynavap, just rip a hunk of flower off, jam it in there, get high. Usually cooks all the way through too!

I know that American healthcare is a hellscape, and American mental healthcare even more so, but if you actually need weed to fall asleep then it's no longer recreational and you should probably talk to someone about it at least once. Self-medication is still self-medication, after all. Most therapists are totally cool with weed use (and a growing number of doctors as well), and if nothing else they can help you figure out if it's just part of your nightly ritual or if it's covering for anxiety (or just like, flaring overnight TMJ).

I had a procedure done last month that needed anesthesia. I heard weed can mess with that, so I told the nurse and docs ahead of time that I took a break but it's still in my system. I told them I've been smoking rec weed, and one of the nurses said it was cool, at least I wasn't "running a risk with street weed." My last guy was selling better medical bud than I could get legit. How does the urban legend about tainted weed still persist in this day and age when dispensaries are everywhere?

Weed sleep is great except when I wake up sober and a little hungover in the middle of the night because, I guess, the weed was the only reason I was asleep.
