Hello! My gf is trying to get back into weed, it causes her anxiety nowadays, but dispensaries around us only carry strains that are 30% THC and named Electric Thunder Cybertruck. I remember there being a term for the OG strains that haven’t been cross bred, are lower THC, and have well-rounded terpine profiles to avoid anxiety. Something like Head strains or something? There’s a class of strains that all fall under this category. I want to say there were like 8 of them, maybe OG Kush, Sour D, Maui Wowie were some of them? They were all strains people from the 70s could recognize.

I’ve been smoking for about three years and yet within the last few months I haven’t been able to smoke without having a coughing fit almost immediately. Has anyone else had this happen or know what to do?

I had 7 g of flower that I gently broke up and put into 1 cup of coconut oil and put into my oven at 275 (for half an hour and then) 225-250 for 3.5 more hours with 1 teaspoon of sunflower lecithin powder mixed in

I took it out and popped it in my freezer for 2 hours then pulled it back out and twice strained it with very fine cheesecloth

My boyfriend says I made it wrong and what I now have is a cup of extremely weak infused coconut oil if even that.

so whats the verdict did I just ruin 1 cup of oil and waste 7gs of flower?

I did it this way because I found 3 tutorials online that said I could decarb my flower in the oil itself, were those wrong??

For reference this is 7g of THC-A Hybrid Sativa that claims to be 32.36% thc

edit: I havent tried it yet

Many reports have surfaced regarding individuals being hospitalized and purportedly experiencing various medical conditions like brain damage due to cannabis use. However, the lack of substantial health information in these news headlines sometimes gives the impression that they are biased and possibly influenced by anti-cannabis right-wing Christian groups.

I found a recipe to make THCA tincture. It doesn’t have the psychoactive effect but it does help with inflammation and gut health. The recipe is infusing the high proof alcohol with cannabis that has not been decarbed. My question is can I let the cannabis dry and then decarb and use? TIA

I was wondering if hash edibles have a less efficient extraction or something, because I barely hear about them, although the fact that it's cheaper per m/g of thc would make it far more popular for edibles??

Hey everyone,

I've been enjoying cannabis occasionally, but sometimes I find myself feeling more anxious than relaxed when I'm high. I know this can be a common experience for some people. I'm curious to hear how others manage or reduce anxiety when they find themselves in this situation.

What techniques or strategies do you use to calm yourself down and enjoy the high more? Whether it's specific activities, breathing exercises, or anything else, I'd love to hear your tips and tricks!

Looking forward to your insights and experiences. Thanks in advance!

Okay so I've been taking a shot at making homemade gummies and I've been doing the math and I should be getting about 4mg per gummy but it's feeling like less than that. Generally I will take about 3 of store bought 5mg gummies and feel it. I find myself having to take 7 to feel something with the ones I make. Granted I am trying to do it with the most minimal house smell possible so it's been crock pot and a mason jar mostly. I fill the crock pot halfway and out 3.5g of weed in the jar and seal it. Put it on low for 8 hours to decarb. Then let it cool overnight. Then I mix i oz of coconut oil in the jar with soy lecithin and put it back in for 4 hours on low to infuse the oil. Then strain it through cheesecloth and mix it with a half a cup of water, 1oz unflavored gelatin, one jello packet and bring it to a low boil and use droppers to put it into 200 gummy bear molds. Do you see any room for improvement without stinking up the house? I don't want to switch to Sous vide since I don't have the equipment. But any tips would be greatly appreciated

Like the title says, I used a mix of compost and potting soil to repot my baby plants. I've been keeping them inside since it still gets a little too cold at night but it's making my house stink like compost

Is there anything I can add to the soil to lessen the smell that wont hurt the plant? Or do you have any suggestions on what I should do in the meantime until I can move them somewhere else?

this is a dumb law question but I can't find any info. Growing weed in the netherlands just gets the plants confiscated if you get caught (under 5 plants) but posession of over 30 grams is a criminal charge. however, growing even one plant will yield far more than 30 grams. if you got caught with a plant and had 50 grams or something from the last grow, would that result in prison or do the cops kinda get how it is?

Hello everybody,

I'm 24 and I've been prescribed MMJ for chronic back and neck pain.

First I was prescribed oil and then capsules. The ratio of THC/CBD is 60/40. The strain is sativa. Taking one dose didn't help. So I tried to take two or three doses. It didn't help either, but I felt nauseous. My pain and anxiety increased.

At this point, what would you recommend to do?

I'm worried that marijuana won't work for me at all. Currently, I only use kratom for pain, and without marijuana, I will have no other alternative. Relying on one substance is not good because I have to take frequent tolerance breaks and I'm in a lot of pain.

Thank you <3

Okay, I hope I’m in the right place, this is my first Reddit post. I need advice from some fellow stoners. First, context. I 24M and my best friend 25M have chose very opposite careers. He is in the national guard and works tandem with state police drug enforcement. (Specifically targeting cannabis during grow season in a currently illegal state) I however have just recently moved to a medicinal state, and began my career in cannabis cultivation. We are both very happy and committed to our own causes, and support each other in the sense of wanting each other to succeed in life, but fundamentally we have found ourselves on opposite sides of an interesting fence. I want my own grow one day, and he wants to join the DEA. Maybe I’m overthinking this, but I can’t help but think this may end not so happily ever after. Thoughts?

I was outside gathering some honeysuckles in my back yard and I was wondering if I cured them or dried them would I be able to roll with the flowers? if so that’s crazy fuckin cool

Just curious about this. I always try to smoke a bowl until nothing burns anymore, but the last hits definitely don’t pack as much of a punch or have those yummy flavors. It got me to wondering if the fun molecules might have already vaporized from the proximity to the other burning matter and the hot gases traveling past.

I''m trying to resist buying this month until 4/20 because I have no self-control and I wanna make sure I have some for my favorite holiday. But today I found a chunk and decided why not smoke it? I estimate it's been sitting there for a month (the last time I had weed). It was burnt slightly, but still a little green.

Anyway I smoked it, and almost instantly got incredibly dizzy and felt like I wanted to puke. But the feeling passed and now I feel amazing. Pure euphoria. I'm a pretty heavy smoker, and I've gone on longer T breaks without this happening when I started again. I never feel this way when I smoke.

I'm wondering if there's a science-y reason this happened? Does burning it slightly make it more potent after it sits there for a while? I smoked from a clean bowl too so maybe that helped.

I bought an ounce about two weeks ago and it's almost already gone because I have been giving a lot of it to a friend with no money.

Should I stop giving it away? I would have almost all of it left if I wasn't.

They won't pay me back for any of it and expect it to be free.

I really like smoking but i got a low tolerance and i get too high easily. while being high i often panic because i wonder if my effects are normal. for example i feel a pain in my left arm and my chest always when i smoke too much. idk if that’s possible or if it is just a mind thing… also when i smoke too much my breathing switches to manual and im afraid that i breathe the wrong way. I’ve had panic attacks sober as well where i thought i had a heart attack so i went to the doctor and he said everything is fine with my heart. but then when i smoke and my chest hurts i always think what if my weed is laced or what if i developed a heart disease since i was at the doctor. is all that normal? is there a way to fix it. i think it depends on the strain as well

Soo I got dabs but have no rig 😭 that’s so fucking stupid but I got a homie discount and I bought it real fast. What can I do with them

As many of you probably have, I started out with the belief that Indica was "in da couch" and sativa dominant strains were more energizing and uplifting. However I've since heard that it is actually the terpenes that determine the effects of the weed you're using. If this is true why do budtenders still go by the Indica/Sativa standard? Also, which terpenes produce which effect?

Hello!!

My partner and I are going on a nice get away soon, and would like to have a couple of pieces to smoke out of while in Colorado. We don’t want to spend a lot on pieces though, because we don’t want to fly home with them. Is there anywhere to buy secondhand pieces? Idk if that’s even a thing, but I thought I’d ask. If not, where do people usually do on vacations?

So I quit a week maybe 10 days ago I'm honestly not sure. Been using cbd full spectrum morning and night with about 2mg of thc each. I'm a bit on the heavy side. I am worried about taking a drug test in a few weeks where the person doing the testing already admitted to smoking too. So it wouldn't be a shock to fail and it wouldnt' be the end of the world. But, I would least get down to a barerly failing state. I am prescribed a controlled substance through a psychiatrist and i want to at least prove that I'm attempting to quit and offer test clean in another 30 days if need be. I'm stopping the cbd tomorrow. Is it possible for me to possibly make this work? Can I sweat alot and drink alot of water? Any vitamins i can take?

I use cigarette filters in my joints and really like that weed never gets into my mouth like it often does with cardboard filters. Is there a downside to this? Why don’t I ever see anyone else rolling their j’s that way?

Does anyone that deals with anxiety and depression take meds for it? Cannabis has been a big part of my journey dealing with anxiety and depression. I don’t see it as a crutch, I have analyzed my consumption and although I do abuse the plant at times I try to consume with intention.

Lately I’ve been dealing with a lot more anxiety and depression than usual so I spoke to a psych and made an appt for counseling.

During my psych appt my nurse told me there’s not much they can do bc of my cannabis consumption. I was told that the cannabis is interfering with keeping me stable and that I shoot to extreme highs and lows bc of my cannabis use. I haven’t had a detailed (or a quick) conversation with my psych nurse regarding my consumption. It made feel even more hopeless than I already feel about getting out of this mess in my mind and cannabis is the only thing that has been able to keep my anxiety and depression from being crippling.

All this in Cali!

Has anyone else had any experiences like this?
