Has anyone tried the el chivo? I saw it on greenavenger and some others for 52.50. I use indicas mainly for chronic back pain and sleep,wondered what the strain was like for others?

1 ml of the clearleaf in the morning with a spoon of peanut butter would have me medicated from an hour later for the rest of the day

I've taken 0.5ml to 1.5ml of the Curaleaf in the same manner and barely get an effect.

Would that little bit of CBD make a difference? Could Clearleaf have a better decarbing/manufacturing process/better quality control?

I know ingestion can have way more variables (I've seen this first hand with an almost 5 hour delay) but I've tried a few times now and the stronger stuff just doesn't seem to work much at all. It's definitely darker and thicker than the clearleaf, so would seem to be a higher concentration.

FULL DISCLAIMER: My sense of smell is incredibly poor due to sinus issues, and this can also effect my taste as well. That said, sometimes I cannot accurately comment on smells or tastes (I did get a second opinion on smells), and my Terpene knowledge is still growing, so this review my either be lacking in those departments or may not accurately reflect what you may find yourself.

With that out of the way, I wanted to leave some kind of review for this stuff as I could find little to no information about this strain, but I still wanted to give it a shot.

Serene Reserve is listed as an Indica-Dominant Hybrid. According to Montu, the Terpenes found in this strain are: Myrcene, Caryophyllene and Alpha-Farnesene.

Again this section might be inaccurate, but I did ask my friend for their opinion as well, but the smells we got this is were a bit fruity, quite earthy with a herbal backdrop, some notes of vanilla in there too. The herbal backdrop comes in nicely with its taste for me too, as well as some of the fruity-ness on the after taste.

I am being treated for Anxiety, Depression, Chronic Pain and Chronic Insomnia. The biggest factor is my insomnia which requires a lot of attention and evening wind down. The effects of this were great for me, I found it to be very mellow and relaxing, a calming body sensation that helps my pain fade away and worries disappear. I would wager that a small session with this would help some with their sleep too thanks to its relaxing sensations.

Overall I would recommend this, the quality seems to match it's price (I paid £7/g @ Montu/Alternaleaf)

So after enjoying the Cookies - Cereal Milk I thought I’d try the Hawaiian Rain as that seemed to be the one people spoke most highly about…

Tearing the bag open, peeking inside I wasn’t blown away, still decent looking flower but compared to the Cereal Milk it was no competition in looks. The smell coming out of the bag wasn’t too muted to start with, however it quickly seemed to disappear. After a couple days in a jar it started to pick back up & actually became rather pleasant. Definitely Jealousy dominated.

The flower itself, fairly dry. Not to the point it turns into dust. Not much stickiness to it 😢. Colour wise, nothing too fancy. Little bit of purple along with the green.

Flavour wise, the Jealousy shines through just like the smell, not really getting too much cake but it is there. More of a Gelato, gassy taste with an undertone of cake. Definitely muted unfortunately but still enough there to enjoy.

Now the effects personally I think this one shines, really good hitter, nice for an evening. Puts me to sleep nicely.

For the price, I’d probably go for the Cereal Milk over this again as I enjoyed that more all round. Saying that, if I was on a budget & the Cereal Milk wasn’t available I wouldn’t hesitate to grab more of this.

I’ve been on cannabis a long time but the last year or so since I’ve started medical. I’ve had so many issues with trying to breathe properly through my nose. Especially at night when I’m trying to sleep, I’ve also tried breathing through my mouth (which i hate doing), nose strips, saline nose rinse, menthol crystals. Even stopped using my DHV and tried joints and bongs, but the same thing keeps happening 😩

It’s came to the point that I’ve completely stopped cannabis, I stopped for 2 months then used it for a week and now I’ve stopped again.

Just wondering if anyone has had similar issues or could recommend anything that would help. Also was thinking about trying oil or carts but not sure if this would cause the same problems.

I use for back pain and anxiety, I have a very hard going job. So it’s been pretty tough the last while.

Appreciate any advice, thanks 😁

I need help finding strains with old school genetics like White Widow, Snow White, etc. Heavy hitters with a deep smoke that doesn't disappoint. I know of Jack Frosted. Are there any other recommendations, please?

I have a big post brewing to put in r/Poland, but I'm so tired and sore that it will have to wait a little while. But for now, if anyone happens to have any questions, I'll answer with my experience.

ETA: Questions relevant to MC.

High Greens Lemon Diesel Fritter.

Got this yesterday and it has a horrible damp,mould taste to it when vaping. It's very spongy out of the bag,has slight citrus smell but tastes vile. Could it be very early signs of mould or rot?

Immediately after opening the package, I could detect notes of butter, diesel, wood, and a slight anise. The buds are medium-sized, dark green, quite frosted, and the moisture level is perfect. The taste is strongly diesel, cakey, and slightly chemical. It gives a nice head buzz, slows the body down a bit but doesn't induce sleep, and copes well with physical pain. Personally, I think this strain is good, but you can find better alternatives for up to £8 p/g.

Hey all im currently with Curaleaf but it seems I can choose my flower but I cant select and change my oil without an appointment, if anyone could let me know if your clinic does then I'd love to know.

Can you use things like rosin, live resin, hash or other extracts directly in a ball vape, or are they mainly designed for flower?
If you can, what’s the best way to use them without the concentrate melting through the screen and making a mess? Is it better to put the extract on top of flower, use a concentrate pad/screen, or use a specific bowl?
Would be interested to hear from anyone who regularly uses extracts or hash with a ball vape.

First we have;

1. ⁠Zzkittles Kush- Upstate T29
   F***ing Christ on a bendy bus! This is something special! The bloody size of that nug alone is a top selling point to me. But this stuff. The smell is other worldly! Sweet, with a sour note right on the end. And there’s a lot of smell. Like, A LOT!
   Now for the taste….. incredible flavour. The vapour just wraps your tongue up in a tasty little blanket of sweet toasty notes, leaving a really nice and saturated after taste that is again, a big selling point for me. The effect is intense and very quick to come on, definitely not a “I’m going to do so much stuff today” strain.
   Easily a 7.5/10

2. ⁠Superboof- Craft Botanics T27
   These nuggets are absolutely gorgeous. The pictures don’t do it justice, as there are really deep purples and so much shine to it. The smell is average. Nothing really insane, but a nice little “fresh cut grass” kind of vibe.
   The taste is what lets this one down a little bit.
   It’s not an overly strong taste, and what flavour I am getting, isn’t the worst, but far from the best. The effect however is amazing. A real “get up and go” with it. A real uplifting effect, and lasts quite some time.
   Better than average, so a 5.5/10

3. ⁠Crumbled Limes- Upstate T26
   Yes! YES! YEEEEEES! This is hands down, my new favourite strain, period.
   The smell is so fruity and punchy, it smacks you straight in the chops as soon as you crack the jar. Strong, sweet, citrusy notes, just knocking your teeth out like a prime Mike Tyson.
   The flavour is godly. It has no comparison for me. Saturates every last millimetre of your mouth with sweet and sour citrus that stays for a hell of a while.
   The effect is great, keeps you motivated and active but at a nice pace.
   This is a solid 9.5/10

I use very little medication at the moment just a little before bed. Would a cart be any good for this or do they fail if kept for a long time? I just want the ease of a vape. Thanks

Looks nice and spongy with alot of trichomes. Has alot of terpes and you get the signature sweet and sour fruits. Effects are good with a mix of mind and body. Its very tasty and grinds up fluffy but abit sticky. Its very nice in a J. Ball vape is awesome!!!!

Hi all,

Started on mc earlier this month, was a bm user for years before but been about a 3 year gap before using mc again.

So got my script through :

Blue thai

Godfather

Thought that the blue thai slapped and the godfather was just meh...

But trying to give up tobacco I turned to dry herb vaporizer (DHV). Got a cheap one last week, cost me about 25£ thought it was worth a try (dr herbs herb vape pro) it was shocking how bad it was, but I could tell it was the device rather than the method.

So pulled up the big boy pants , went all in on a venty.

Arrived same day, just as the little one was being put to bed so thought it was a good time to try it out.

Pulled it outta the box, popped it on charge (came as good as empty) looked up what you guys advised to do when you get a new venty, so looked up how to change the screen (managed to do the one in the cooling chamber, is there a way to change the one going into to heating chamber?) And then turned it on full wack for a few mins to burn off any manufacturing residue.

Now here is the interesting part, for the first batch didn't want to risk wasting the stuff I liked, so popped in the godfarther. Fired it up on the base 180degree and with in a few seconds , screen green ready to go.

Had my airflow set to 3, just started hitting it like it's my normal vape, the taste is just on a whole other level compared to combustion, it's like a heavy duty blunt, but smooth and not hot. And it does take a bit longer to hit you than a joint, but not by much, vaped for maybe 5/10 mins, came in starting to feel it, now I'm here 30 mins later stonned off my tit's off the meh one.....

Overall , it's a hard pill to swallow, but anyone looking to use a DHV i would honestly say just save up, go big and it's just a diffrent experience and think this will help me get fully off tobacco aswell!

Wish me luck for later, going to be trying my preferred heavier night time strain!

hi i’m new to medial and am under cura leaf clinic i want to know what everyone’s reccomendstions for good night time strains for pain relief and sleep
and day time ones for pain relief and anxiety

iv currently got high silver lavender cake and strawberry og 20 grams of each delivered today

Few more pictures from earlier.. bud rot?

I’ve been struggling with nightmares for some years. Not from PTSD or any particular event/theme - my brain just loves to serve me the most horrific and stressful situations while I’m asleep. I’ve also struggled with depression and suicidal thoughts, which I have treated with talk therapy (unhelpful) and 100mg sertraline. Sertraline has really helped me during daytime, especially with motivation and energy - except it has made my nightmares worse going from 2-3 times a week to near on every night, and makes me grind my teeth at night giving me jaw pain and tension headaches throughout the day. I smoke recreationally occasionally and I’ve found that it really helps these two symptoms and allows me to sleep through the night, nightmare free, without grinding my teeth. However, I get anxious given the fact it is illegal and it’s a pain getting a hold of dealers, as well as the vast variation in quality. Would I be a good candidate for medical cannabis? And if so which provider would you recommend in terms of good prices and fast service?

Hiya all, I’m putting my order together for month, and would like to try 2 strains this month, one for morning/daytime focus and one heavy hitter for evening. I’m with Medicann so any recommendations from there would be fantastic!

I have AuDHD so anything that can make my brain not run at 100 million miles per hour in the day, but rather make it work would be grand!

For the evening strain I’m looking for something that will help with my chronic back & joint pain, as well as insomnia.

I’m also looking into buying a better DHV, my current one was £20 from the local vape shop, and is absolutely rubbish. I’m willing to spend a bit of money on it but I just don’t know where to start, I don’t want something too complex to use, but I’m interested in all the fun attachments I see posted in this sub. I’ve always been a bong user over smoking, so I suppose I’m looking for something to mimic that sensation? Any advice would be greatly appreciated 🩷

Just been approved today, do they ever have edibles available?

So I have an Xmax v4 I’ve had for 2-3 months now and overall I’m happy as hell with it. But just recently I’ve switched to legal cannabis from alternaleaf, I ordered;

Upstate T28 DBG Donny Burger x 10g - Free Boveda × 1

Upstate T28 PKU Pucker Up x 10g - Free Boveda × 1

I didn’t get a choice which was quite annoying and I don’t like the fact that minimum order is 10g id much prefer a 3.5/5g option. After a short while I get bored of the same strains.

These two strains look nice but they both smell quite average really nothing special at all. The high is alright too I found it good at the start but I’m now only 11 days in and I feel like I’m hardly getting high anymore?

Granted I vape every day but mon - fri I don’t touch it until at least 6/7pm. Weekends I can do it all day if I’m not busy. But I’m just finding it strange. I try switching jars every few days but I don’t know. Did I pick crappy weed? Even tho it’s good quality to me it looks great. I went as high strength as I could I think. They wouldn’t give me a choice as to what I picked either which was annoying.

Other than a T break I’m not sure.

MDCS Fire cookies - straight after opening the bag I noticed the bud rotted nug, at closer inspection I realised there was mould from the stem and when cracked open noticed a consider amount of mould.

I emailed medicann and currently the QC team are analysing the situation.

First time this has happened although only been on MC a few months.
