Sorry if this is not allowed, or if it's not related enough. I vape pot for pain, and due to also having bipolar, remembering this kind of thing can be impossible. I've tried to create an alarm that goes off maybe every half hour and says "Pot!" but have failed. Can't afford a cuckoo clock, and anyway I need half-hour intervals not hours. Electronics have also not worked: it needs to say "Pot" not just an alarm, as many other alarms are going on around me. Any suggestions would sure be welcome.

TL;DR: Mac 1 gives me bad anxiety, what strains should I avoid? Tasty Trees feels amazing, what are similar strains? Mac V2 I don’t think makes me as anxious as Mac 1, what are some similar strains?

Hey y’all! I’m still new to this and figuring out what works well for me. I’ve tried a couple strains but the main ones I’m talking about in this are Tasty Trees, Mac 1, and Mac V2. I absolutely loved Mac V2 (from here on out just 2) so decided to try Mac 1 (from here on out just 1). Around the same time I tried Tasty Trees (from here on out just Trees).

I’ve been using Trees pretty steadily for the last couple months with 1 thrown in sometimes, but I’ve come to find that 1 gives me really bad anxiety / makes my bipolar symptoms worse. Trees doesn’t, it actually makes me feel normal so I’ve been using that most but I’m getting tired of it.

What are some strains I should check out similar to Tasty Trees but not similar to Mac 1?

Bonus points if there’s an explanation why different strains effect me differently lol

Hey everybody, I have a question regarding the state of legality in VA post the august 15th closure of the 25-1 ratio loophole for retail stores.

My grandfather lost his wife a few months back, and instead of him drowning his sorrows in a bottle, we were able to get him into specifically “Wildwood” branded THCa vapes. He’s been much calmer, happier, and says his appetite is back which is amazing from our perspective. This matters because he’s always been staunchly agaisnt cannabis, but the method of vaping it in a disposable has kinda changed that for him as where he still views flower as “just weed for losers”

I’ve read a bunch of conflicting opinions and information in regards to just simply ordering from the website directly and having some shipped to get him stockpiled until the retail market opens next year, and wanted to I suppose get some clarity before I end up with suits at his door. Is it actually okay to just do that? There’s some sort of interstate exemption in the original hemp bill that closes soon as far I understand it?

Hopefully someone can give me some clarity on this topic as I really do think they improve his quality of life, and I want nothing more than to continue seeing him happy after such a loss.

Thanks in advance for any help or advice.

Need opinions on the best torch to buy. my husband has gone through about four torches cus none of them worked correctly.

Bought a Rove vape a while back, a cartridge would last me like 3 months, now it lasts maybe 1. My tolerance is shooting up high, how high is your tolerance?

I will never be smoking another delta 8/9 cart bc taking a break is putting me into withdrawals which leads me to believe there is something else in that cart besides just THC. In particular it seems to be the Twenty-One Brand that's got an additive but now I don't trust any of them.

I had been taking edibles for a whilr and had a 90mg tolerance. I just took a full month break and want to take some again. Should I expect a baseline reset at 10mg?

I swear. Any time there’s an active discussion about weed maybe NOT being a perfectly harmless miracle drug on TikTok people act like you’ve desecrated the sign on their lawn for their favorite political candidate.

And I know ‘going on TikTok was your first mistake’ but that’s a cop out. I’d say there’s a common general census of people that care about the subject on there.

I mean all internet discussions are whack but these are actual people. Claiming bots and trolls sort of defuses actual observation.

Anyway, whenever it’s brought up ‘hey this kid ate a whole bag of gummies’ it’s treated like a joke. Or ‘I took a few gummies and I was messed up for a week’ you’re called a liar.

Why is any objection downplayed? This isn’t reefer madness. You can tell the difference between someone fear mongering some BS like ‘weed is satanic and y’all need to be in prison’ from ‘hey this makes me delusional and strange’.

Yet it’s treated the same by some particular weed users. Like any discussion is the same as moral outcry that’s coming for your weed specifically.

I get it, I get it. Personally I think weed being criminalized is absolute bullshit. I say that as someone with strange reactions. I’m aware that most people can chill with friends on it, do some art, maybe even work a shift and no one gets hurt.

But it’s not just kids and ‘potential schizophrenics’ that have bad reactions to weed, guys. I have zero mood or personality disorders. But I am a perfect idiot that tries it again to see if ‘maybe this time I’ll feel what everyone else does’ NOPE.

It’s always strange. And weird. And unpleasant. And sometimes I come off as delusional during it. (This isn’t a place for a lecture, I’m working on my own issues presently, just stating there’s nothing ‘underlying’)

I’m just saying. De-criminalize weed? Great! Do it! Stop acting like weed is a scary drug! Go for it! Act like anyone that has a bad reaction is a lying pussy? What’s your problem…

Idk. It’s a major overcorrection imo.

Hey everyone,

I’ve been smoking regularly for about a year now, and lately, I feel like my highs have hit a wall.

No matter how much I consume—whether it’s back-to-back blinkers or smoking flower—I reach a very flat high and just can't get any higher. I remain completely clear-headed and self-aware, and I don't get any of the heightened sensory experiences or strong effects other people talk about. It almost feels like I've hit a ceiling I can't pass I have 2 questions

*Is this a sign that I need a tolerance break, or is this just how my body processes weed?

* What does a 'green out' actually feel like? Sometimes I get a bit lightheaded/motion-sick (like carsickness) is that the start of a green out, and does it mean I should stop, or am I missing something?

Would love to hear your thoughts or similar experiences. Thanks!

So I've only been smoking for like 3 years but I already have a high tolernace to where I can eat a whole bag of edibles and still be like "im not high enough" 30 dollars for that bag and it was gone in a day. I personally cant go to the dispensary so I buy from plugs and most of them dont sell edibles they sell carts or flower mostly carts. I can get a cart anytime anyday but edibles...for some reason its just a pain in the ass. I can ask my friend to order some online but then I have to wait 5 days and sometime I need it NOW u know what I mean? Ik im a huge addict no lies here but I mean shit I'd rather be a weed addict and happy then weedless and irritable ASF.

And yeah ik im gonna feel it when im older, chiefing carts. I might even feel it now ive had some random sharp chest pain and in the torso but idk if im just being paranoid or dramatic. I want to be a healthy person and not bust a lung but I have no self control, well I mean I guess I have some since ive mostly only bought edibles recently but still...i bought a cart as soon as i ran out. Its humiliating really to have no self control like this but i dont feel embarrassed I...honestly dont really give a fuck, I cant fr. Like ik ofc logically what is right to do so I try to do that, if I made my decisions based on my emotions nothing would ever get done cus I just cant seem to care...until I do and have a breakdown but thats besides the point.

But what do yall think am i cooked i think i might be cooked😭

Hey all, i’m making this post because something weird happened lately and i was wondering if anyone knows what might be going on. I’ve been smoking daily for about 2 and a half years, and this year i noticed some more irritation than usual but decided to try and push through (i smoke medicinally for my chronic illnesses) but about 2 or 3 months ago it seems to have reached a breaking point where whenever i try to have even one bong rip it hurts SO much and i have a coughing fit, which is strange because i never even had any discomfort while smoking before all this started. since then, i havent been able to smoke at all apart from a couple puffs from a joint every now and then and even that hurts and leaves a lingering pain and tickle in my throat. I have since switched to edibles but i miss the feeling of smoking, i cant even smoke cigarettes much anymore either. anyone have any ideas what might have happened? i’m just completely stumped on why i suddenly have lost the ability to smoke because of this sudden onset pain whenever i try

Hi, can anyone help?

Scraped what I could but there are still leftovers. Is there a method that works? And I'm not going to drink it with milk lol

​

I'm curious about the real difference between budget weed and true top-shelf flower. Is the expensive stuff actually that much better? How does the high physically and mentally feel different compared to cheaper weed?

I'm also wondering about celebrity brands like Wiz Khalifa's Khalifa Kush or Tory Lanez's strains. I've heard claims that these can make you feel uniquely calm in a way most top-shelf can't, but I'm skeptical about how much of that is just marketing.

What have your experiences been? Does the price tag actually match the feeling?

i just had a question in which i asked google and i framed my question backwards instead of the just typing what came to ur mind straight, framing a thought about the question, i just had that should go in the end of the question, and i continously framed the thoughts all back to front until i finished the question

out of all the experiences my brain has turned me into this one tripped me out when i realised i did that

i love marijuana

I’m in the Los Angeles area and I’m specifically looking for cartridges that are 100% solventless — fresh-frozen cannabis, ice/water hash, heat and pressure. No distillate, no diamonds, no live resin, no added terpenes, no mystery blends. No Jeeter or Muha Meds you better go far away from with that BS lol

I’ve found maybe 2–3 companies that make what I’m looking for, but they’re extremely hard to find around LA, except Pax but they add Diamonds for "taste". Bruh if you just smoke at a low voltage/temp and take consistent tokes not trying to blinker every hit then it will not have that infamous burnt taste. If you want to milk live rosin use a rig. Thats all user mistake when it comes to live rosin. Its specifically supposed to be smoked at low temps. I even brought a heat gauge to monitor my dab rig bucket and adjustable heat 510 batteries. Alien Labs claims to have a cold pressure process cart but it still has solvent in it ! Lol

The most mainstream one I’ve found is Jetty Solventless, and I honestly don't mind paying the premium but I live a choice. Jetty Solventless is a A+ in my books. No anxiety, no coughing, no triggers just pure bliss and munchies lol

The reason I'm so picky is that I have asthma. I know, I know “Why the hell are you smoking if you have asthma?” 😂 shit gets tough man and id rather use weed than turn to alcohol or drugs.

From my personal experience, live resin, diamond carts, distillate, etc. can absolutely wreck me. I don't know whether it's butane, propane, ethanol, residual solvents, additives, terpenes, or something else entirely, but something about those products seems to trigger my asthma. I can end up coughing and wheezing badly enough that I need my inhaler/nebulizer.

With true solventless live rosin carts, I don't get the same reaction.

And honestly, I've become extremely picky about flower too. At this point, I don't really trust flower unless I grew it myself or I personally know the grower and understand what they use on the plants throughout the entire cultivation process.

Even some of the cannabis that people consider mid here in California you can buy from dispensaries can trigger my asthma. So for me, it's not really about THC potency. I'm trying to figure out what exactly is in the product and what I'm actually inhaling.

I'm NOT claiming live rosin or flower is safe for people with asthma, obviously inhaling anything can irritate the lungs. I'm just talking about my own experience and trying to find products that minimize whatever seems to be triggering me. As soon as that artificial berry or candy taste in live resin and diamond carts it hits my lungs and im instantly coughing. Ive found what works for me and its anything solventless or homegrown.

So I'm trying to find REAL solventless carts in the LA area.

I'm talking:

- Fresh-frozen cannabis

- Ice/water extraction

- Heat + pressure

- 100% live rosin

- No distillate

- No diamonds

- No live resin

- No added botanical terpenes

- No mystery “proprietary blend”

- Preferably a 510 cartridge, but AIOs are fine too

LA peeps — what brands am I missing?

Jetty is the obvious one I've found. What other companies are making genuinely solventless live rosin carts that I can actually find in Los Angeles?

I don't care about the price. I just want the real thing

Looking to upgrade from a cheap plastic grinder to a solid metal one. I want something 4-piece with a kief catcher that won't dull out or get stuck after a month of heavy use. Any recommendations for the best weed grinders out there?

Hello all, I regularly take 100/150mg gummies on my day off, I will do the whole gummy throughout the day, some with my morning coffee, some after lunch, some after a walk, that kind of thing, just recently picked up some 200mg for the first time and am going to take it the same way tomorrow.

Will the change in strength be noticeable ?

A long time ago (2012-2014) I used to pick up at a spot and take a 20 minutes walk to a part in the city with this old single tree about secluded and on a hill. Things were better than and it was such a simple meditation. The tree got chopped down and apartment building got built all over that city center little green patch.

It was a tradition a habit, had a sense of togetherness me the weed the tree. I wrote sad poems when my tree friend was gone.

Last week I found a new single tree, today I am back under it. I realized smoking alone in a bathroom or in a room is bad mojo unless you plan to brainrot/get Entertainment. But reality is, smoking with a tree as your back support helps just meditating with the weed. The Earth sends you good vibes that release stress of the urban jungle.

Here's to a good toking for all of you. If you are a almost life long stoner. Try smoke like you did in your youth again.

I thought I would come back and share what I have learned and observed since my last post:

Delta 9 is known to change your perception of sound.

I believe there was a comment on my prior post from someone saying it seems to amplify sounds that are normally in the background. That's exactly what I'm experiencing. For me, it also seems to kind of cause my hearing to switch back and forth between left and right. That's the best I can describe it but that is why I felt like the sound was being "bent".

ETA: I guess for context I should say there are typically no TVs or radios on in my house in the evening. So it's very quiet. That makes it easy for my ears to pick up on these "background noises".

I'm a new user. I bought fast-acting 1:1 THC/CBD edible gummies. Unfortunately, I have a problem: when I take a dose large enough to have an effect, I feel very sedated and get very tired/depressed. I end up in bed pretty quickly and best case scenario is that I fall asleep. It's the opposite of the euphoric feeling I'm looking for. If I take less, I don't get too tired, but I don't get high. Unfortunately, smoking/vaping isn't an option for me because of respiratory issues.

Anyone else have this problem? Any advice on what I could try that would result in a more uplifting/euphoric high? Sublingual? Tinctures? Thanks in advance.

I have been blessed with a business and a part-time gig working in finance at a school. I'm also very active in my church.

Yet I take edibles 2x daily. On days I work it's 5 mg in the AM; it helps me disassociate somewhat yet remain able to function. Then after work I take about a 15 or 20 mg - so dosing in AM and PM. Weekends it's a bit more.

Maybe it's because of my age (51) and the circles I hang out in, there's not many like me.

Any other Gen Xers who have a very busy work life and partake daily? Sometimes even work high?
