Alcohol vs Weed

[JEFF420]

Well I guess I need to learn patience. Things weren't really noticeable so after a few minutes I went again. A few more minutes and again. Then I wanted to see if the air filter that you blow into works (we hate the smell of smoke, weed, etc). By the time those 30 mins were up, I felt like Shaggy in the Mystery Machine.

Good news - that's the first time my muscles have relaxed and not hurt since getting Parkinson's. It's also the first time in 42 years where my mind was actually calm and not a mess of chaos.

hell yes brother

Not sure if medicinal vape pens are different than recreational, but those things are wildly inconsistent aunless you really know how to use them. It’s very, very hard to know if you’re getting anything or not, and by the time you do know, it’s too late and you’ve probably ingested more than you intended.

EDIT: I’m happy for you that you got your card. I truly believe it’s a miracle for a lot of issues, and specifically Parkinson’s. There is just too much evidence to ignore how life changing it can be.

FWIW - the medical Marijuana stuff, imo, is much more trustworthy on consistency of strength vs. the totally legal states. I have no scientific proof other than my personal experiences.

Don’t even have to push any buttons on pens nowadays. Pick up pen, suck on pen for desired amount of seconds (light turns green when drawing), stop sucking on pen (light goes off when not drawing), exhale.

I have one that lights up and one that vibrates.

Anyone ever tried the Road Trip Mushroom gummies? They don't contain any Psilocybin (which is why they can be sold here in Iowa), but they contain different tryptamines that really really work!

Not that brand, but I've had Tre House Magic Mushroom Gummies and wasn't a fan. I got them for a concert but didn't take them because my test round gave me a stomach ache and little mental effects.

There sure are advantages to a variable temp unit though. Learning the wildly variable boiling points of various terpenes and how to conserve product can be pretty handy.

I have a dry herb vape (Arizer Solo II) that you can dial in temps by 5’s. Need to pull that thing out and chase some flavor.

I gave my boss a 20mg gummy before this big retirement dinner we had to go to on Tuesday night. he said it was the best night of his life lol

We still talking about vape pens? Lol

They Road Trip gummies come 8 to a package. I didn't experience any effects taking anything less than all 8. Once I took them all, things started to get real fun!

20mg? I would be non-verbal after 10, can't imagine 20. It's really tough for me to do anything over 2.5ish and stay social

Yeah, nothing happened when I took the "day at the office" or "day at the park" serving size. I didn't get to the "day on the moon" amount. A 10 mg gummy can get me in a way better mood for a lot cheaper.

I don't do the edibles. They don't get me high. I don't do the vape pens or whatever they are called. I dont go to dispensaries. All this newer stuff kinda takes the fun out of it. I always pushed for legalization, but breaking the law is half the fun of smoking for me. Scoring a bag is part of the fun also. I buy from a friend who has been selling for a long time. I roll joints or use the same glass pipe I have been using for probably 15 years now. Gotta keep it old school.

Anyone remember proto pipes? Those were cool in the 90s.

This is a very wild take on a couple levels. The legal aspect is one but saying edibles don’t get you high is the Mt Everest of takes

I'll take a gummy, drink a Climbing Kite, and hit the vape pen as needed. Three-Pronged approach to celebrate Friday.

Im an awful sleeper. Been that way my whole life. 5 mg of a indica gummy at about 8:30 and I’m toast by 10. I feel a little drowsy in the morning, but 8 hours and a little drowsy beats the hell out of 5 hours of restless sleep.

I don’t think the take on edibles is too outlandish. Some people have superhuman metabolism that eliminates the THC before effects can be noticed. Other people might have sluggish metabolisms that don’t break down the THC at all. Medications can also be a factor. It all depends on the person.
