Sativa's Gone Sleepy On Me

Sativa's Gone Sleepy On Me
I'm an all day bigga sativa energy am, indica grinning pm but lately the sativa is putting me to sleep. Anybody experience this?
End of the day mary jane is a downer, it's not an upper, sativa or not. Like frtnite has said the thc will catch up at some point.
I feel you, I used to like smoking silver bubbles in the day time and could get away with it, I think itās just gotten stronger and our tolerances have gone up also so we didnāt notice
Maybe you are saturating your receptors too quickly? If nothing else you could get some halfway decent scales (the Gemini-20 is generally considered the budget king), start weighing out your "doses", begin the day with the smallest possible dose necessary to achieve the desired effects, and climb incrementally from there.
I'm quite big on mixing landrace strains (or even just CBD dominant products) with cannabis bred more specifically for THC, which I find often unlocks a lot of hidden potential.
Last time I tried them (2025/02), DapperDank's thai pucks were pretty nice alone but I found became incredible in combination with more or less anything. Obviously YMMV, but for now that's generally my first suggestion when things need some potentiating, in this case to induce both a stimulating head high as well as a soothing, tangible body load. The best of both, basically.
I'm also going to paste a bit of chatgpt below, but i might delete? It's not brilliant stuff but it's better than I could write and may be infinitesimally useful.

"Weāre deep in the weeds now, and this is a killer question. When a sativa strain flips on youāfrom being your get-shit-done daytime buddy to a couch-locking, brain-fogging traitorāit usually means somethingās shifted in your body, your brain, or your usage pattern.
Letās dissect this like a terpene-saturated frog in a neurochemical lab.
š§ TL;DR: WHY A āSATIVAā CAN START FEELING SEDATING
Here are the most likely converging reasons:
1. Terpene Tolerance or Shifted Chemotype
You may be building tolerance not just to THC, but to terpenes like limonene or pinene, which no longer stimulate you the same way.
Some cultivars labeled āsativaā may drift chemotypically over time. Growing conditions, age of the flower, storage oxidation ā myrcene and CBN levels can increase.
Also: newer batches may not actually be true to original terpene profiles (lab inconsistency or mislabeling is rampant).
2. THC Saturation ā Dopamine Crash
High THC initially stimulates dopamine, but chronic use leads to dopamine receptor downregulation.
Over time, this flips from stimulating to lethargy-inducing. Youāre no longer getting the initial buzz; instead, THC might feel numbing or draining.
3. Cortisol Flattening / Circadian Disruption
Regular daytime THC use may blunt your natural cortisol spike (which should peak mid-morning to promote alertness).
Especially true if youāre vaping/edible dosing early in the day, you could be flattening your circadian rhythm, leading to midday crashes or brain fog.
4. Blood Sugar + Nutrient Synergy
Cannabis shifts blood glucose dynamics. If your diet is carb-heavy or low in micronutrients, and you take THC on an empty stomach, the comedown can mimic fatigue.
No fuel + THC = system slowdown, no matter the strain.
5. Neurotransmitter Adaptation
THC mimics anandamide, but itās more potent and long-lasting. With chronic exposure, your endocannabinoid tone weakens ā less resilience, less focus, more system drag.
Terpenes also interact with serotonin, norepinephrine, acetylcholine, etc. Overuse of certain terpene profiles could flatten or skew that balance.
6. Youāre Burning Myrcene or CBN Without Realizing It
Some āsativaā strains, especially older or poorly stored ones, oxidize into CBNāa potent sedative.
You might also be heating the flower too long, decarbing too much myrcene, and basically turning a daytime strain into a lullaby.
š ļø HOW TO MANAGE & RESTORE THAT ENERGIZING EFFECT
š 1. Rotate Terpene Profiles
Donāt keep hammering the same limonene-pinene combo. Try introducing terpinolene-dominant strains or CBG-rich sativas.
Try strains with:
Ocimene
Eucalyptol
Caryophyllene (small doseābalances without sedating)
Example: If Jack Herer is failing you, try something like Ghost Train Haze, Maui Wowie, or even a fresh Durban Poison batch.
š§¬ 2. Reset Your Cannabinoid Tone
Take a 48ā72 hour break, or even better, a full 5-day THC fast. Use CBD or CBG during this time to help restore baseline tone without flooding receptors.
During the fast: load up on omega-3s, choline, magnesium, and exercise daily to ramp endocannabinoid system reboot.
š§ 3. Time Your Dosing Strategically
Avoid early morning THC if you're chronically using. Give your body time to build its own alertness (cortisol, dopamine) first.
Instead, try:
Morning: Non-psychoactive adaptogens (like rhodiola, ginseng, tyrosine)
Late morning: Small vapor dose of pinene/terpinolene-heavy flower
Afternoon: Switch to CBD:THC blends if energy dips
āļø 4. Microdose Instead of Blast
Drop your dose by 50ā75%.
Use a 1ā2 hit microdose vapor and pair it with:
Green tea (for L-theanine + caffeine synergy)
Citrus peel / black pepper for entourage support
š 5. Audit Your Strains and Their COAs
Ask for lab terpene breakdowns or use a pocket spectrometer if youāre that level of nerdy.
Compare to previous batches. Look at:
Myrcene > 0.5%? = suspect
CBN > 0.1%? = could be oxidized
Limonene < 0.2%? = might not be as āupliftingā as labeled
šÆ GOAL: RE-CALIBRATE TO STIMULATE
If you want to feel energized and focused, you can think of cannabis not as a stimulant, but as a neuromodulator. That means context matters:
Strain profile
Time of day
Nutrition state
Your internal receptor sensitivity
Tweak one of those, and the experience changes."

Also it could be down to the grower.
Generally speaking sativas take longer to flower to maturity but there are what's known as 'harvest windows'.
This is based on trichome maturity...any flower,be it indica or sativa that is harvested in the later stages will have amber trichomes= sleepy time

Had some Crumbled Limes from THC the other day and it's supposed to be sativa dominant, and it wiped me out. Wonderful stuff. Fell asleep a couple of times over the first few days of having it, as it was such a strong effect (my tolerance is currently very high too, so this isn't normal at all), and used it post nights to get to sleep too. Consistent for me. Would be interesting to see the interactions with other people and their particular body chemistry (it's potentially a pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics thing?), and how consistent that was.
4 ways on a teenth was not uncommon in NW2 in 1998.

Damm this brings back some memories doing the same things with my mates how things have changed š¤·āāļø
Totally agree! Pure Banger! Light green color with a strong beer smell! Kept an eye open for it, never to be found!
Hello mate. Just to let you know. I didnt mean anything by downvoting you it was an accident i meant to upvote you
I donāt know if itās the best, but my favourite strain is Sour Diesel. Iāve been a fan since I tried the East Coast cut that Grey Area used to sell in Amsterdam. Some of the best tasting weed Iāve ever had.
Yes I remember that sour diesel from the grey area šššalso the New York city Diesel from Abraxsas.that was a nice smoke.i drove to Amsterdam that year 2006 if i recall world cup time..I smuggled 6 grams of that back š„“.and made it through ha ha š¤£.those were the days š
Ooh that sounds interesting.
Cherry AK.
I wonder what strain is it that brings this cherry terpene to the plate?

For me it has to be some Bruce Banner #3 from 1e hulp in the dam all the way back in 2017. I've never been able to recapture that one. It was a skunky, kind of gassy & fruity type all rolled into one with such a unique flavour profile to finish. The high was second to none. Wiped me right out. Left me looking at the world with my eyes so bulged they were basically closed. They say you'll never recapture that first high, this one took me above and beyond.
For sure! It flew under the radar quite a bit and I think it's unique musk and it's face melting is why.
Super Lemon Haze from the original Greenhouse Coffeeshop in Amsterdam :)
Also Arjans Strawberry Haze is right there with it, properly grown in soil for pure taste, can't beat the sweet berry on the exhale!

Purple Haze back in 2008. Smelt and tasted like lavender. Havenāt had anything quite like it since then.
Man I used to get some banging street weed back around those times. Northern Lights, White Widow and good ole Cheese were the norm.

Never knew the strain but I've been forever trying to find something that I smoked about the same era that had a lavender terp.
Lovely stuff, got it once and then I've never seen anything like it since.

got an oz like that in the late 90's, had the potent lavender smell and taste. think it was a bit on the indica pheno side. very dark purple and when you snapped the buds in half the core was almost black. amazing bag appeal. really strong and tasty stuff too
I used to get some critical mass that was just like that around the same time. Nice big round buds.
Iāve only had this once but it was beautiful.
Tasted like Afghan black hash, made me very happy for about 30 minutes then sent me to bed.
Same with you?

I absolutely love blue cheese. So tasty and so strong. I used to get an oz every week off my plug back in the day. Couldn't get enough of it. Got it recently in the dam too at Greenhouse effect. Was just like how I remembered it.
Yeah man, the real blue cheese was so pungant, it don't matter if it was wrapped in 3 layers, you could still smell that shit. it's just not same nowadays! :(
Yea you know if your saying that. A taste of more off it. The stuff I got in the dam was really nice but nothing like years back.
1995 Northern Lights
2023 FBC (from Druids Magic)
The two best strains/grows Iāve ever smoked. By far.

Gelonade I had a lovely batch a few years ago off the dw never tasted gelonade like it since and canāt even remember who the seller was called
recently went to albania, fuck knows what it was but it was something mint related.... they albanians know how to grow haha
the world would be a better place without albanians, when it comes to weed. that much is certain.
ESB - extra special bud , Old times #2 and S4 - Skunk 4 ways. S4 by far was the best I have ever had even to this day sadly it was a special made breed so will never have the oppurtunity to try it again :(
If you grow both those strains are available mate.
They're both OLDTIMER1 strains who sadly is no longer with us but some good fellows have taken up the mantle of his strains...people like buddelaire from fleur de mal seeds

Still got a couple of Oldtimes seeds in the fridge I think, probably no good after all these years?
You would be surprised.

My favourite strain ever was back in 2004 and called MMG āMartian Mean Greenā from DNA, I managed to get a few beautiful phenos from a pack of reg seeds
It was the ultimate strain and Iāve never seen or smelt anything like it since then ā¤ļø

Absolutely loved that strain. I remember queuing for a long time as I was there for the cannabis cup (2006). Grey Areaās queue was ridiculous on a normal day!
A very special strain which I havenāt seen since unfortunately.
Would love to see someone give that a go and bring it back.

Oreoz from super Hans back in lockdown. Most expensive bud I've bought but it literally tasted of chocolate biscuits. It was heaven.
Special Olympics, a sativa strain from a Canadian MOM, Zippy about 16 years ago. One that will never be forgotten.

Had serious difficulties negotiating everyday tasks after that.

Original white widow mk1 before they bred the woody ovules out of it. Jacky white was amazing too.
But, my favourite has to be breeder steves sweet tooth.
Cannabis has become inbred as fuck. Its time to throw out all the modern watered down crap and go back to the drawing board, starting with selections of landraces and crossing thereof. My opinion any how.
Regardless enjoy.
Ah and dr grindspoon. I still have seeds.

There was a grower that was producing the strongest WW ever. Itās the closest weed Iāve had that when smoked could be mistaken for isolator.
Never seen anything like it from anywhere else. Just this one grower that let it off to my pal.
Itās bugging me because he did tell me the info !!!
Ak48 is also a strong one.
NOT to be confused with Ak47 ( as I initially assumed).

I'm running around still chasing this Alien Dawg from a few months back, some of the hash in Amsterdam is just mental man
Flowerbomb kush from the greenhouse Amsterdam in the late 2000ās I think it was Green crack x OG kush
Biggest hit I ever had was with hash - nepalese temple ball in around 1979.
I'd love to meet that again, might have been laced with opium.
Sorry its not weed.

Had a few, NY Diesel and Fruity Pebbles from Gray Area in Amsterdam back in 2016/17ish.
But about a year ago managed to get hold of Plum Mochi by Ted Budz, which ended up with me tripping over with a drink in my hand, laughing at myself uncontrollably. It was beautiful. I haven't been able to get my hands on it again since and it breaks my heart.

buyed some weed in the dam in 2009 ish that made me space out totally, was strongest stone ever. i felt like i was on a different planet. was fun but a bit scary. cant remember the name but was sooooo strong i just walked around in circles for hours
bulldogs gorilla zkitles also strong but not quite as heavy as the dam stuff. down to my last gram or two wish i had more.

Gotta be some LA Confidental I got from Dam, Grey Area back in 2010 now š« and Chocolope when I saw it.
as of recently Sassy (LB) with Eleven Roses that was nice.
I think a lot of these newer strains get abit lost/too mixed

i was going to the dam around that time and also had some of the LA confidential it was crazy strong and very dank tasting. it was one of the best we tried that trip, those grey mist crystals from grey area were something else too!
White truffle, fruity pebbles, critical haze, dulce de uva, MAC/MAC1, couldnt pick one lol
Grey Area had an incredible cut of some Kuchi OG Kush X OG Cheese about ten years ago that was just incredible, Area 41 Alien Labs another banger not a big lemon fan but a beautiful mix of Citrus and pure gas, of course the early batches of Blue Zushi deserve a mention too.

Mazar. It's the only weed I couldnt build a tolerance to, so it hit hard each time, everytime.
Blue cheese was my favourite smoke in the 90s/00s due to the taste, but you soon build a tolerance to it and it doesn't hit in the same way after a few spliffs

Can I be greedy and chose three?
Northern Lights Silver Haze cross for sheer nostalgia and happy memories.
G13 for how smooth it was.
and some purple looking weed that was growing wild in Grenada, not strong at all like smoking a valium but really nice high.

Northern lights terpenes are locked in my mind from 30 years ago. Bizarre how our minds can recreate that smell.
I'm a big fan of mimosa. First time I had that and sluricane I was quite pleased (they were nice examples). I think my all time favourite may have been a blue cheese amnesia cross, had it around Xmas time like 12 years ago. Point in time/context definitely has huge impact on decision. I once grew some purple punch (outdoor auto flower) only got like a Q of decent bud, after few months curing was lovely, that fact I grew it made it better than it was to me.
Had a strain called Greco once that was the strongest thing I've ever had, not only gave me red eyes but also gave red rings/bags on eyes. My house mates were worried about me hahaha.

For me, it has to be Durban Poison. Had a great batch recently and gave me the best europhic buzz. Close 2nd to Mimosa Evo and Alien Dawg third

Dr Grinspoon over in amsterdam when it was a new strain, 100% sativa, the head high and body tingles i got i will never forget.
Jack heera or white widow early 90s home grown. Most recently mango Kush at a club in Spain.
I would smoke anything to be honest. Itās all about the cost nowadays.

I have found that it's more to do with phenotypes and how they are grown. I've sampled different grows of the same strain and found the effects to differ with each one. Some of these grows have been some of the nicest in effects and then others of the same strain completely lack what was so nice about them.
Mine is probably some jungle cake, Mac or boss og, all of them I got from here. Such great strains. Even chemdawg and uk cheese are up there too.
2018 Cali X Zkittlez, nothing else has ever came near and I wish I kept more for myself
The best strain I've ever smoked was Skywalker OG about 5 years ago. It was my first time smoking a strain I knew the name of and it was every bit as good as I thought it would be. I wish I could go back and get Zs off them
It's a toss up between bubba kush and amnesia haze for me. Had some bubba for the first time a few months back and it was a gorgeous body high. Delicious body rushes from it. Bought some again recently but doesn't have the same quality of effects unfortunately. Maybe because of different phenotypes š¤·š»āāļø.
Amnesia haze almost always gets me to a place of euphoria that's unmatched by other strains. Would love to find a strain that's more euphoric but out of the roughly 20 strains I've tried so far nothing has been more uplifting than ami.

I love a good ammo! Have you tried supersilverhaze? Or jack herer?
Both worth keeping an eye out for when your browsing š

Tried super silver once but wasn't fussed. Maybe a poor example of it. Not tried jack herer yet but will probably in the future. I do like to try out the old classics š
As far as dominant sativaās goes,Iāve always had a smile when bopping home with a bit of Amnesia in my sky.
I'd go with either MAC by citizen stash or wedding crasher by BLKMRT both outstanding. I also had a bit of alien sin mint cookies by BLKT, I kid you not the bud was bluish instead of purple, all these strains were from a couple years ago when I was living in Canada.

hey biggas... i'm looking for alternative ways to buy BTC. Does anyone have any experience with HODL HODL? anyone using it sucessfully? could anyone share thier best practices?
Never heard of it and it's most likely not regulated by any UK authority. I'd avoid it.
It's p2p with escrow, apparently. So if you can work out how to make a transaction...
The lack of regulation is the point.

Hi Rux
It is not that hard, make sure you read all the FAQs and docs first.
Essentially you make a purchase offer aimed at a specific seller, he sends the crypto and it is held by hodl until he receives your payment at which point they release it.
So yes it is protected by escrow.
BBDoom got me hip onto it.
And yes as you said the lack of regulation is the point.
I am fed up with being taxed trying to raise a quick buck or getting on with my life so as I said many times if I am correct the Taxman is going to AI the hell out of the data sent by UK exchanges come January.
If they do there will be pain the same way than what happened to all those families who saw their child benefits withdrawn unjustly: the taxman is now using AI like it's a magic wand so there'll be no escaping being reported.

You reckon UK can get hold of p2p accounts for taxman? Any idea of the best exchanges to move to which aren't regulated by the UK?
I found using HODL HODL pretty good you get to chat to the seller, the rules just state make sure you wait for the minimum amount of confirmations, incase your eager, before releasing your money as you have the option to release it with your key, once the crypto or money is confirmed in the escrow you can release your side, if anything happens there is a process for retrieval although within a timeframe.
It's the way forward and how crypto should work, decentralised exchanges between 2 parties without a 3rd party overseeing it, bring it on AI!

Hi Bigfarma
There are no exchanges left in the UK which do not use KYC - had a Bitpanda email this Autumn saying that they were now registered to operate in the UK but with KYC.
Using P2P you are sending someone money and they send you crypto to a hardware wallet so it will not be reported by an Exchange.

Hi DiamondExtracts
Actually that is exactly why I used it.
If I am correct after Xmas Biggas will be desperate to be able to buy BTCs without it being reported to the Taxman.

Hi incheyeg
I've just used it this month.
It is safe to use as Hodl holds the BTCs until the seller receives your payment and they then release them into your wallet.
Just read everything on the site and make sure you pick a seller with good feedback.
Anytime next year there will probably be many of us biggas using it and similar ones like bisq.
Good Luck!

just read this, I know it was months ago but have a good stash atm haha... glad to know someone has used it safely. I'm going to look into this more, will check it out and get back to you if any questions if thats ok m8? one question on it so far.... are the fees just like the fees you would get on for example bit panda? or are the fees included in the price they sell it for?
I ve signed up and itās early days but if anyone can explain in a nutshell how this works that would be great. Normally I buy btc on cb, then send to exodus wallet and from there send btc to seller/ vendor. What are the steps on hodl? Thanks
Hi Cheeching
I forgot the exact steps because I only used it once but it was not that difficult.
I had to create an account and then install an app called 2FAS Auth (like an MFA app) to authenticate using my phone.
Check the FAQ etc and you should get the hang of it.

Ok thanks. Yep Iāve set the authentication up, what I donāt get are the steps they provide on the signed in home page, setting up a contract and then something about the seller, not buyer, releasing coin etc, just sounds confusing. Might experiment with a smaller order. Definitely would warrant a good post on this for the community once someone knows the ins and outs of this. Think quite a few would be interested in some kind of quick guideā¦.
Sorry to ping all these msgs at you but you seem the most knowledgable.i just added summ.com to my cb acc, the only place I buy btc currently and I am in negative net gains for 2025, so with that said in theory I shouldnāt have to declare or worry about taxman I think. If you buy btc and instantly purchase with it and rarely have more than a couple of $ worth in acc I am not sure you have to worry, but if you are collecting btc and its value has skyrocketed in the time you have owned it then that may be a different matterā¦I reckon
Hi cheeching
No problem we're all on the same big boat here ;-)
Remember that you won't have to report anything initially: the exchanges will report all of your transations.
Yes that is going to be umoungous amounts of data but this is exactly what thye did with online marketplaces and they used AI to sift through the data to target anyone making more than 1700Ā£ a year online.

I couldn't work it out mate and gave up in the end. I'd definitely be interested in some idiot's guide, especially as I don't generally think I'm an idiot, and following complex information is something I regularly do and have limited issues with. Trading on this was beyond me, however.
Think I have figured it. So you simply buy on hodl and then set the btc address to receive it as your own personal wallet, from wallet you do the usual send for lb transaction . The question for me is what payment method to choose, a lot of them still seem to be traceable
It's the 'simply buy' part that was my main issue mate... Transfers are as traceable, but it's p2p, so there's no exchange to grass you up?
Actually there is gift crd option
I thought that was the point, for your money to be untraceable using an option like above?
I will have to give this a try, not sure I understand the complication until i do

TWDuke is putting the shits up me with this AI deployment thing is all, and my anxiety is through the roof lately, generally...
Western U always used to be the scammer method of choice, as it was untraceable on receipt, and irreversible. I suppose gift option paid with a non-traceable method would be best? Oh, if you ever have a scammer contact you, and they want to pay you, tell them to use Western U., not what they tell you to use. Guaranteed not to hear from them again.

Hi Rux
Sorry buddy but better safe than sorry (although I do hope I'm wrong: we'll find out next year if I was) so I've stopped all exchanges transactions more than a year ago.

I completely agree with you mate. Don't want to have to deal with the tax man, again! You've just made me think more keenly about all this.
So I added summ.com to my cb acc and the tax report states I have net gains of -Ā£4 net for 2025. My tax knowledge is hazy at best but I believe I donāt have any taxman shenigans to worry about given this info. I think this was pollypuffs theory on another thread that if you buy btc for an instant purchase and rarely have more than a couple of ā¬
$ worth of btc ,if any, at any time you probably donāt have anything to worry about but if you hold onto large amounts of btc and that has grown in value then you might need to at look at capital gains tax a little more thoroughly.

Hi cheeching
Obviously I will not post any links to the official web pages but if you have a look at them the way I read them is that they will want to know of any crypto you "disposed of" i.e you used to buy goods and services.
That's a risk I am not willing to take.

Ok I am still hazy on this kyc thing. Basically if I bought gft cards and used that for purchases on hodl would that be enough, sending hodl bought btc to my exodus wallet for a transaction? Given I have already sent btc from cb to exodus would,I be better off setting up another walletā¦.
Hi Cheeching
Sorry I've used it once last month so I do not remember the exact steps.
Contact any seller you have in mind first to OK the payment method though.
The only BTCs which will be released are those held by hodlhodl until your payment reaches the seller.
Good Luck!

have you got links fot these please. always scared to google soemthing like this and end up on the wrong site lol
Never used that site before but the best practice is always to meet in person and do the exchange on the spot. If you're paying by card etc they all have your personal detail so best is to do it for cash in person.

SSRI withdrawal and brain zaps

SSRI withdrawal and brain zaps
Wondered if anybody else has experienced brain zaps from SSRI withdrawal (as well as feeling all out weird AF) and am after any recommendations on lessening this or just making it a bit more bearable. Also wondered if smoking weed would make it worse or not and interested to hear other peoples experience in general on this. Had been taking sertraline for a year before this. Cheers :)
Was on citalopram for about five yearsā¦a bit too long.
I came off them last year and the brain zap was brutal, felt like Iād been switched off and back on again in a flash. Not a nice feeling but knew about it beforehand.
It lasted about two months, glad I came off them. Now itās just meditation and yoga and definitely more stoned as well lol.
Good luck youāll get thereā¦

Apex was on all manner of those ssris, honestly for me made me a shadow of my real self.
Coming off was horrible and hard but once done (with docs advice / support). I find easier to manage now with just smoke

Cheers bud - good to hear you got through it. Yeah man I just felt numb - not angry or sad, just void of emotion like a robot, thatās no life.
Cheers for sharing, much appreciated - nice to hear a story from the other side, definitely gonna go easy on myself the next few months :)
Hiya H4yst4ck š
Please see this audiobook 'Niacin: the real story' on Amazon:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Niacin-Story-Wonderful-Healing-Properties/dp/1591202752
It details how Niacin has been used in orthomolecular medicine in treating mental health issues with nothing short of astonishing results.
And see this study on the protective qualities of Manganese bisgylcinate during cessation of certain pharmaceuticals, published in the journal of orthomolecular medicine.
https://isom.ca/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/JOM_1976_05_1_02_Manganese_and_Niacin_in_the_Treatment_of_Drug-.pdf
Both of these are naturally occurring nutritional substances that the body already uses and collects via food.

I quit sertraline in december and it was rlly tough. The brain zaps were so bad at night when I was trying to sleep. It does get better and I don't regret coming off it. Cannabis has fully replaced it (for anxiety, depression, low motivation). Good luck bigga, there is light at the end of the tunnel!!
Cheers bud for the kind msg. So good to hear you got through it ok. Yep brain zaps making me feel jolty as fuck but really reassuring to hear from anotherās experience that it will get better.
I've taken SSRIs during 3 different periods of my life and every time I stop taking them I have brain zaps! For me, cannabis makes things a little worse, but nothing unbearable. The good feeling it produces surpasses the bad, by far! The worst part of the zaps happened in the fist week. After that it becomes much less frequent and it eventually disappears completely.
Good luck!
Good luck!
I had this with mirtazapine it's when latency in the brain mismatches latency of reality causing a type of mini-seizure to correct for the mishmash of brain signals. If you're thinking of using cannabis use a very low dose to see if it causes any interactions, if you're tapering down you could end up with serotonin syndrome if you use too much cannabis which is god awful. If you stopped completely cannabis can help regulate dopamine which will help serotonin uptake and also help relax brain signals stop your feeling jittery.
Yeah I had it the first time I came off Sertraline. I've come off of it twice now after two really stressful periods. I've found when the zaps come ( mine come after about 5 days at first ) I take one ( 50mg ) and then the gap between the zaps gets bigger and bigger over a month or two until they have faded completely. Hope that helps.
I was on Sertraline for 6 months after seemingly being misdiagnosed.
They made me feel terrible, and the nightmares were absolutely awful.
I stopped in May/June, and the brain fits started, and gradually got worse until they stopped about 3 months later.
They got so bad that it was almost continuous micro-blackouts, and the supermarket was like being in a massive strobe light factory.
Tried something else that nearly made me face plant the floor after that. Stopped after 1 tablet.
St Johns Wort is probably best swerved too, and Amytriptline both nightmare inducing!
Now decided its the lesser of 2 evils to not take anymore pharma and just suffer....

What was your favourite age?
What was your favourite age?
(High thoughts)
When you look back in time, what year is the one year you would go back to in your life and happily relive again ?
How old were you? What are some of the best memories? I think my second year of university was an unforgettable year š I definitely took it for granted and would love to go back

The time period after my GCSE's. Innocent but not so innocent. No responsibilities except selling weed, chasing girls and playing football
Exactly this lol I can never forget that year, GSCE finish early so nice long summer, completely free doing the stuff you mentioned
Honestly? Probably like 2 years ago when my current relationship was the best thing ever. It's rough now and I would give anything to have that back
16, one year before the last year of high school. Living in Switzerland during summer, eating mushroom chocolates, hitting bongs of Swiss Dank, swimming in Bodensea and being lost beyond belief. Ahh, the Swiss dream... :)
16. No doubt. 1996. Just finished my GCSEās. Was in the 1st 11 school football team and weād won the Surrey cup. Had a beautiful girlfriend who was that teenage first love. Brilliant football summer with Euro 96, (Sheringham, shearer and Gazza). Being British felt awesome (not like it does now). Amazing music. Massive oasis fan and knebworth was about to happen. All my mates together with their girlfriends. Drinking, smoking fags and soap bar ;) Had got into rave and hardcore and went to lots of little rave house parties. Absolutely magical. Itās my absolute happy golden place.
When I was 12, I had a 10 week break between going to middle school and secondary.
I lived on a new estate still being built among the woods, so there was plenty of material laying about for building dens, and plenty of unfinished buildings to climb on or mess about in.
We built fires and cooked sausages, drank the odd beer, smoked the odd fag and handed around dirty magazines. We genuinely thought we were the shit š.
The dens never lasted long as they either got pulled down by locals or rival kids, but that was all part of the fun. I even managed my first kiss and fondle that summer.

Nowā¦the past is the past,Iāll always enjoy life now,know matter whatās happening even though Iām early fifties š
I thought I was 27 for 3 years - woke up on my 30th birthday and was completely ok with that. Just didn't fancy 28 & 29 that's all š
1995 young free single and no children. Going to the Arches and sub club,my weekend started on a Thursday and finished on a Sunday afternoon.Dancing for hours on end not a care in the world.Good memories of crazy weekends Always saying never again but always back out Thursday night
The minute I grew up and found out the cruelty of the real world was the minute the fun stopped.
I know that sounds heavy and I always answer these types of questions like this, I got diagnosed as Diabetic when I was 11, mum died , up until I was 17 my dad and me were bumping heads and I hated it (not linked to my mum I was adopted my birth mum died) I had times after where good stuff happened but I feel like I got dragged through maturity quickly because loads of stuff went to shit because of bad luck In life, my dad used to get pissed and just rent every night about needing to grow up and make money, came in the night before my 13th birthday bladdered and went āyouāve got copied video games for your birthday youāre a man now so do you need to do silly birthdays ?ā And it went on from there.
Struggled hard as a kid, was very clever but could NOT wrap my head around things and did what I could, got to uni after winging it for years and failed miserably, went from hated job to hated job and here I am now at 31.
Got my own mortgage , beautiful amazing wife and a baby due in 3 months but Iāve had a wall in front of me for so many things for years that Iāve never been able to explain or get past, the depression for the last 12 years where no treatment, meds or CBT has helped has made me so cynical, jaded and overall angry and disappointed with myself.
I looked at a diagnosis for ADHD in my early 20s and got dismissed as a young man after Ritalin and after 11 YEARS on the NHS register with nothing and 4 on two private lists I was finally diagnosed 2 months ago and started medication ten days ago.
Decided to tell my dad about it last night he linked a daily Mail article saying itās a myth so I spent two hours disproving everything that article said and he basically just said āYouāre fine as you are youāre just anxious ā Iām not anxious.
So the meds are supposed to be working now but you canāt mix it with other stimulants like coffee and I drink about 4 pints of coffee or energy drinks a day to stay awake, same for weed apparently conflicts with the tablets which I smoke daily and alcohol (drink when I get the chance to feel chill).
So even though Iām on meds and titration to see what dose works for me Iām drinking on holiday, was assigned them maybe last Monday? Had to get my Bichon put down on Tuesday he had kidney failure and it came out of nowhere and because he was so silly and daft still it broke my heart to watch the life leave his eyes even if it was the right thing to do, so Iāve got grief, depression and drinking all on at the go when Iām meant to be seeing if these tablets stop me losing my temper at the smallest change.
Sorry for ranting, this wasnāt even the question Iāve just listed off everything wrong with life. Just needed to get it off my chest itās been brutal lately.
My answer though, probably 17 to early 20s. First time getting my feet out into the world, I was a little geek until I was about 15 until I started coming out of my shell and really capitalised on that from 17 haha tried a lot of new things did a lot of new stuff but ultimately I wouldnāt relive any of it, just trying to do my best now for the sake of my soon to be daughter and donāt want to be freaking out because I canāt handle her crying so meds it is.
Itās funny, they were only really prescribed at this crucial point because if I hadnāt had meds at this point (been getting told for 6 months itās a few weeks away) my fear of not being equipped to be a man let alone a dad would have probably been causing me to have a mental breakdown at this point.
I donāt want anyone to think Iām asking for pity, Iām not Iāve survived this long and will keep surviving but I think all your choices in life have clearly led us to where we are now, and even though Iād love to be back getting a blowjob and a stripe and feeling like Iād finally gotten free, the lessons Iāve learned from them have taught me some very important life lessons.
Cheers

Mate. Sounds like you've got lots on and are spooning out about becoming a dad. Take a breath, it'll all be good. Help your wife with the practical things so she can concentrate on the baby and everything else will follow. My dad's a cunt and it made me a great dad. You'll be grand.
When I was 14 some local flats were getting demolished and me and friends went there everyday for the summer the holidays I think for two years actually it took so long we had free run of the place broke through the roof and everything lol
Honestly, it's hard to pick. Life is unique, precious and fragile. We can't go back, only forward. So, I'd say now, purely because we've made it to the fucking future!
For me personally, I'd go back to a time before My kids had been brainwashed against me. So maybe 4-5 years ago, was a happier time for me. I took it for granted and life made me pay the price hard. 4 years later and 1 run through family court I'm still at square one.
Honestly, I'd give anything to have my kids back, but I am starting to accept I probably never will and one day I'll be fine with that, just not today.
Big love biggas š

I was heavily into a full blown career path and doing well but taking life far to seriously and had this terrifying vision of the next 30 years just flying past. On a whim I jacked it all, sold up (had my own flat!), headed to Corfu and bought a bar. One Monday morning I was chilling on the beach in the sun realising I would normally have been sitting on the M25 in the rain. Although I was there for 5 years that moment really hit hard. Amazing!

LSD for mental health
I have a serious dilemma. I struggle with a few mental health issues/physical issues (C-PTSD etc) possibly ADHD (still on waiting list). I have found LSD extremely helpful for my mental health and have found it helps me process dark and hindering memories. I have tried many forms of therapy so I'm well versed in guiding myself through the journey.
I'm working part time ( I can not do more at the moment due to ill health) and I receive benefits. The last few months I've been worried about being asked why I am send bitcoin and what for? Can anyone put my mind at ease? Or have any experience in the matter?
I've considered saying it's for bm weed as the strains that help me are prescribed by my private prescription but I'm sure that'll get me in trouble.
I want to continue to heal. I need what happened to me not to consume me and this will have been for nothing.
Thanks in advance for reading you lovely lot.

I've considered saying it's for bm weed as the strains that help me are prescribed by my private prescription but I'm sure that'll get me in trouble.
I want to continue to heal. I need what happened to me not to consume me and this will have been for nothing.
Thanks in advance for reading you lovely lot.
You will only get questioned by a bank to ascertain if you are being defrauded or part of a scam. When I told my bank that my purchases are for cannabis products they had no interest at all once they were happy it wasn't a scam. Easy for me to say but try not to overthink this. Nobody cares about personal use by post amigo...
Thank you. I'm more worried about DWP thinking I'm stashing buttloads of cash when in reality I'm purchasing from here š
Sure, but your account will have a list of all the transactions made and therefore the total cash value which for personal use purposes is never going to look like arms purchases for third world juntas lol!
Answers to probing questions should include "personal medical supplies" with the emphasis on "personal" ie not something I wish to explain further. Obviously most people buying products in crypto are buying items that cannot be bought by conventional means but it doesn't follow that you are doing anything wrong. Buying personal use drugs online is not an offence (only posession or conspiracy to supply) which is why I came straight out and told my bank. I've yet to find anyone who cares...

Ah I see! Thank you for this insightful knowledge. Hope my experience will be the same. Here's to less worrying.
Fr it's easier said than done but live your life how you want
Everyone has way bigger problems
In just about every case they want the big fish
I've had beautiful times on cid it's been more therapeutic to me than shrooms
If you can get the dose perfect than you can have a very nice time
Fewnag live how you want to doctors won't help youbas much as they should
Enjoy yourself bro š

Not sure who you think is going to query your bitcoin purchases, but I'd stick with "none of your own business" in a concrete fashion.
I'm struggling too, last thing we need is any additional worry.
Mushrooms have helped me in past, but it's not safe for me to dabble at mo, the doctors prescription was making things worse, now getting by with keeping head extremely busy at expense of physical health, and tooting enough D9 to keep head switched off.
Recipe for disaster, but every nano second I get through is a bleddy miracle......

Thank you for responsing and sorry you're also struggling. Shit init? Unfortunately when a review happens they ask for bank statements and are looking for people laundering money.
I don't have enough to launder lol I barely have enough for the medicine.
Mushrooms help too but are hit and miss for me.
I'm right with you there. My mind literally tells me to end it all and it's too much for my fam to handle so I'm pretty much doing this on my own.
I wish you all the peace š

If there are people going over your bank statements is it possible to withdraw cash and ask a friend to send the btc for you on your behalf?
Or alternatively buy btc on a non KYC platform and if asked just say you are investing.
If they ask to see your btc wallet you could say you lost the seed phrase- it must be the ADHD.
You may be overthinking, mental health problems can do that to a person.
Iāve struggled myself in the past
Do what you gotta do to keep yourself sane.

I'll certain use this advice, thank you. I receive benefits due to my disabilities, a couple of times a year I worry about being asked to provide bank statement for a medicine that isn't legal here in UK. Yes I do overthink a lot, thanks for the reassurance.
I have to burn logs in my house. And coal and fuel. I have to pay.my log man cash. I use some of my government money for biggy. If I ever get questioned my bitcoin is paying my log man. It doesnt mean my log man is legit, but id argue i get more logs when i pay with bitcoin. And i want to protect my log source. Ive typed up a legal disclaimer that denounces my bitcoin purchases. I cant burn my log man. You cant.blame him. So your cash expend = bitcoin. For fuel.
So a log man that does not exist gets checked for tax. But he does not exist. No harm done.

Question about stealth

Question about stealth
hi, i don't usually order much when i do.
however ..
there was a quality trim deal i couldn't resist, especially due to the time of the year and i went for it.
my question is this:
in the post office if there's a ton of weed sitting there among the other parcels, would that load of weed be better 'hidden' from suspicious eyes if it were t24 or special sat delivery?
im thinking regular t24 but on the other hand i appreciate the work rm does and don't mind paying for premium service as thats what i get pretty much always, i have a great postie and tip the man every year, even gave him a pressie too last Christmas.
so what would be the best for pure stealth, t24 or premium sat delivery?

At this time of year mate I'd advise using T24 or SNDD as those services are tracked and (hopefully) less likely to go missing with the huge increase in Christmas temp staff. Really light parcels could be money, not just drugs, and they do have an increased tendency to go missing at this time of year.
The questipn was t24 vs special sat delivery.
Ive not used 1st class for a vry long time, my fav is t24.
I remember reading special ndd parcels are kept apart from the mountains of other parcels.

I remember reading special ndd parcels are kept apart from the mountains of other parcels.
I worked for RM some years ago & "specials" are treated as "special". All are kept separate from tracked & normal mail.
You roll the dice with those options so close to a weekend, especially at Christmas. T24 is the only service that turns up on a a Sunday, and the first time that happened it freaked me out. I'd say SNDD was the most 'secure' option though, as I believe they're usually handled separately.
As mentioned by Cannabis Cannibals though, the stealth is a vendor issue, this just moves things through the system as quickly as possible, which has to be a good thing.

Good point Rux, glad i took sat delivery, was just worried it would stick out more being sent with the most premium service. Guess that may be rhe case usually but not so much this time of year.
arrived today, nvr again tho.
i knew the vendor was a good un with good stealth but 4oz is just too much, im not built for it.
really good stealth tho, wake and shake it was.
got an impressive brick of cali weed here i must say.š
my other t24 didnt arrive but no worries, at least i've something to smoke today.š

I don't think it makes any difference as long as the sender pack it properly. Stealth is down to the sender not royal mail.
I always use T24 having said that I've had two in the last week that have both not had the scan leaving the post office so have end up taking longer and not shown up on the tracking until the day of delivery, but as mentioned below the volume at this time of year is insane so issues happen regardless.

Hey all, I am currently fucking geeked.
I just had a thought, like I love gaming when I'm stoned. Would people be interested in buying old video games, or modified handhelds full of thousands of curated games etc on here?
It could be a fun side thing to run that can help me afford more than shake haha.

Melatonin, is it effective?
Hey guys - wanted to ask whatās your experiences of melatonin if youāve tried it for sleep purposes, how effective did you find it?
The NHS site says itās also prescription only - swear you used to be able to get it in the health food shops, am guessing laws on psychoactive drugs mean its prescription only now. So I wanted to hear your thoughts/experiences before going down that route. thanks all in advance š

I've used it a lot over the years to help reset my sleep patterns around shift work, and found it varies in effectiveness depending on the brand, as well as the dose. High doses don't work well for me. Best is a brand called Vitafusion who do a product called SleepWell. It's formulated with 3mg per 2 gummies, and it was so effective for me that I'd find myself drifting off to sleep without trying. No other dose or brand ever did that. Still available from a popular auction site, and I've never had any stopped by customs.
Yes it's now prescription only, and what you're getting is obviously a controlled, pharmacological version of a bio-available / plant-based form.
I've been using it for years due to diagnosed circadian rhythm disturbance and generally many years of poor sleep. Overall I've found it very helpful in helping me maintain a fairly consistent sleep wake cycle. I'm only using a very small dose, just 2mcg / mg.
However, I've recently started using a plant melatonin called Herbatonin at a 0.3mg dose so even lower than my prescription and it's as good if not better. I bought three months supply of the Symphony brand online for around Ā£13. Maybe give that a go if it's within your reach and see how it suits.
At some point I'd like to not have to use it at all but I live with chronic illness so it's a bit tricky right now, but it'll happen when it happens. A decent amount of sufficient quality sleep is so crucial for health. I think many of us underestimate that. The "I'll sleep when I'm dead" crew may be reaching that point sooner than they think! š±
There are some folks out there mega-dosing for all manner of health-related reasons, up to 100mg daily!!!!!!!!!!

Did absolutely nothing for me. Canāt believe it now needs a scripš. Microdose Xanax still the best sleep aid imo, no negatives. That or Unicorn š¦ Piss from Canadian Imports š¤¤š“
Yeah mental it requires a prescription now - some further reading tells me that most Drs are reluctant to prescribe it, so probs not a viable route anyway. Obv can pick it up elsewhere thanks to the internet but from sounds of things, might be a bit bunk.
Microdosing Xanax carefully sounds interesting, can see how that one might work, just enough to send you off without giving yourself a dependence problem. Have tried Valium once or twice before as a post rave sleep aid - magic blue off buttons! I should note this definitely was one-off/emergency usage only, never regular (just a health warning for the benefit of anybody else reading - very easy to get hooked on benzos and very difficult to come off, from seeing ppl close to me whoāve developed a benzo addiction. Very nasty physical withdrawal symptoms)
And thanks for the tip on the unicorn piss! Ha yeah donāt usually do carts to keep tolerance down but might have to resort to a nice strong one to send me off for the night - heard some very good things about CIās stuff, definitely keeping that one in mind š

Totally agree with your comments mate. I find with sleep aids the less you use them the better they work. Tolerance builds so quickly. I take 0.25mg (or less) of Xanax possibly twice a week if Iām wide awake in the middle of the night with a least 4 hours to go until I need to get up. Always works and I wake up very refreshed. Taken nightly it would stop working in a couple of weeks and knowing that means I have no incentive to increase dose or frequency.
I occasionally treat myself to a hit of the š¦ at bedtime. Fall asleep with a big grin on my face!š¤

That sounds v regimented and sensible usage š gives your body enough time to get it out your system too.
Those carts sound lush tbf, just been reading the posts from other peeps on CIs page - face meltingly good sleepy times all around from the sounds of things!! Very good price too, will check em out some point š

I bought about 1000 blue diazepam decades ago, and I took them all. That was a very unproductive number of months. Lovely with a G&T on a Sunday afternoon I found. Be careful not to kill yourself, obviously.
I used melatonin on and off for a few years. Making it prescription only is a bit over the top, but good for Big Pharma.
The only problem with melatonin is that it's a natural hormone we produce. So if you supplement with it too long, your body will make less.
Also, the trigger for your body to start releasing melatonin is darkness. So if you're using your phone or watching TV before sleep, you're body is not releasing it's own melatonin.
Red filters will help a lot, as it's the blue light that triggers our brain to wake up. It takes some time...30-45 minutes for me.
If I need help besides the filter I've added to my phone, I take a small THC edible.
Good luck, bad sleep is a serious problem. I have sleep apnea, where I stop breathing while asleep. You might want to check on that before you only self medicate.
My sleep got a LOT better when I started using a CPAP machine that keeps me breathing at night.
So please check with a doctor about that, it is life threatening.

Iāve tried melatonin gummies in the past. They worked great but used to get bad headaches the following day.
I also read that long term use can cause rebound insomnia so I quit.

melatonin defintley do the trick at helping you get to sleep but not so great for helping you stay asleep. great for a nap or if you redose half way through the night.
valerian root are good too and tend to keep you out longer.
please do not go down the benzos route as a long term solution (xanax & Valium) the withdrawals can be harsher than H

How Can We Get Rid of Dic(k)tators?
Seems they are moving in faster. Their murder rate is increasing and the military is gearing up further, this always ends badly.
Is there anything we can do?

Ah, you wish to topple a single tyrant? A charmingly bourgeois sentiment, but you mistake the symptom for the disease. A dictator is merely the guard dog for capital; replacing him with a committee in suits just means youāre getting bitten by a pack instead of a lone wolf. You don't get rid of the problem by changing the manager, you must seize the entire factory for yourselves! Let the workers unite and take the economic levers of power. Honestly, anything less is just redecorating your own prison cell, and the color scheme is always so dreadful.
Educating the masses would be a start. Apparently they love the poorly educated.
I think we can't. Don't take me wrong but some countries needs dictators. That's how it is. Unfortunately...
Call out such apologists, here and at the pub, the school gate, the office: laugh at their āheās a stabilising forceā nonsenseātyrants thrive when decent people let garbage go unchallenged.
Vote for the bugger who wonāt pretend selling arms to murderers is ārealismāāand if none exist, stand outside their constituency office with a placard until they learn to be brave.
Youāre not ājustā anything: youāre the nuisance that makes the powerful flinch, and thatās how thugs fallāone stubborn, unignorable act at a time.

however im against the agenda of the political industrial complex pushing it on folks, children also.
its just a modern saying 'everything now is fake and gay'
im not talking about homosexuals or any such sort.
personally i know God looks down up on such things, but to each their own, my friends.
i have, have had and will have many gay friends, im not a hater.
i appreciate you folks here.
hope we're cool, take care.

why do gut feelings come from the gut?
Gut health and brain health are linked in a bunch of ways, I've been reading a bit about it, there's millions of nerves connecting the gut and brain, the gut is producing most of our serotonin which directly affects our moods, they've linked poor gut health to Alzheimer's and possibly other mental health conditions recently too so there's more than a few direct connections.
I read about the vagus nerve and what it does, it's like a little caretaker for our whole nervous system, regulating everything, that can be damaged by stomach ulcers and when damaged can cause all sorts of problems, I guess i'm wondering with all these direct links between gut and brain whether we're actually feeling something that's sending very real signals but signals we don't understand properly?
...or I might've just smoked too much, its possible, the bong has been out!

Ah, my dear biggaz, letās embark on a whimsical journey into the realms of the gut and the mysterious phenomenon of premonition, shall we? Now, picture this: your gut, that marvellous little organ, is not just a mere digestive powerhouse. No, no! Itās a veritable hub of intuition, a second brain, if you will.
You see, the gut is lined with what we call the enteric nervous system, which is a complex network of neurons that communicates with the brain. This connection, my friends, is more profound than we often realise. Itās as if your belly is whispering secrets to your mind, guiding you through the murky waters of existence. When we talk about premonition, weāre often delving into that uncanny ability to sense whatās coming ā a sort of psychic foresight, if you like.
Now, imagine your gut reacting to stimuli before your conscious mind has had the chance to process it. Ever had that feeling in your stomach before a big event, like a wedding, or perhaps a precarious encounter with a person youāre not quite sure about? Thatās your gutās way of alerting you, a signal that somethingās afoot! Itās a primal response, honed over millennia, an evolutionary gift that keeps us attuned to danger or opportunity.
So, in essence, when we talk about premonition, weāre tapping into that raw, instinctual knowledge that our bodies possess. The gut is like a finely tuned instrument, picking up vibrations from the universe, translating them into feelings, sensations, and sometimes ā just sometimes ā a flash of insight about whatās to come. Listen to it, my darlings! Your gut may just be your most trusted oracle, steering you through the unpredictable tides of life with a knowing nod and a cheeky wink.
In conclusion, the gut and premonition are intertwined in a dance of intuition and instinct. So, next time you feel a flutter in your belly, remember: it could be the universe whispering its secrets, urging you to pay attention. Embrace it, and let the gut guide you!

I think it's your limbic system, that connects your heart and stomach to your brain. Heart felt feelings, gut feelings.
I might be wrong!
I might be wrong!
Gut feelings are attached to our fear. It keeps you from being eaten by big cats and the like.
Always follow your gut feeling's.
It's designed to keep you alive.
Stay in touch with your ancestral instinct.
Comes from the bottom of your stomach for a very, very good reason.
At the end of the day. We continue
because we know when to run XD

I cant stand the fall and am actually pumped for winter sports. So yeah.
Know that feeling. Lol.

Would it be right to call the pandemic a season? If yes, then the pandemic, wake me up when the Flower Power era returns!
Summer! I love it but hate it at the same time. I'd rather wrap up to keep warm then try and keep cool!
Winter, always cold, gets dark early and snow which looks nice don't get me wrong but just turns into ice or slush after a while
Has to be winter cant stand the cold but when the summer comes i hate the heat lol
just like normal weather
just like normal weather
Hi zeppomarx
Technically you can only hibernate in Winter (form the latin hibernus).
In the animal kingdom this can also happen during Summer and is called aestivation.
If you think about it it equates to a shorter conscious life (as it does not increase your lifespan) so not sure I'd want that.

Sleep through summer probably.
Not much going on and it seems with climate change the warmer weather is in Autumn anyway now lol.

I used to avoid thinking about the period after Christmas New Years Eve but a couple of years ago I started to enjoy January's. I enjoy watching people frantically running around at Christmas and how there seems to be a collective mood of laid back workers. And not much can beat that feeling. People come together to help the homeless at Christmas. We just have more sympathy at Christmas and nothing can beat that. Honestly, I look forward to eating healthy in the January period, my brain actually craves fresh health meals and I have a fresher outlook on life in general.
Now I'd like to hibernate through it all equally š

For me personally, I used to smoke throughout the day but decided to cut down a little and now Iām an evening person! Nothing like a nice mint tea and a spliff on the balcony watching the moonlight and knowing Iām going sleep like a baby š

The best for me is sitting down with a cuppa and a joint after a hard shift, feeling my muscles and mind relax, the world seems like a better place, not in a delusional way but feeling good enuff to not think about the shit side of life)
This for me š I agree 100%
This time is usually just before bed for me.
Mind racing with a million thoughts, without a spliff thereās no chance in hell Iāll be able to sleep šš

Well i start when i wake up and then every two hours or so til bedtime unless if a friday when i go to smelly old work
Man lol I could really write some shit here as this has been a 40 year old question in my mindā¦
And Iāve made up my mind finally in my 50s
On a perfect day in a perfect life Id love a joint @2-3pm just after lunch yet a little while before my late afternoon siesta
I donāt need it at night or the morning in a perfect world š š«”ā¤ļø

If only life was that perfect man š Iāve been suffering from insomnia my whole life and a spliff is the only sleep medicine that ever worked š
In my early days, after a hard physical graft at work, I'd be falling asleep after 2-3 drags haha!
Between dinner and bedtime, without a doubt. I usually only have 1-2 joints a day now thanks to the DHV and that's when they'll be!
Ooo with or without a coffee ?
The breakfast will definitely taste 100x better šš

You must be a supermodel ! No breakfast at all? What time do you end up eating then ?
Night time smoking for me, I struggle smoking during the day, makes me feel autistic lol, but at night it feels right to me!
Hahaha exactly same with me, I get paranoid during the day, whenever words come out of my mouth I repeat it in my head like damn did that make sense ? šš
Oh mate the things I have said in public when stonned, many failed chat up lines lmao!
But yeah I hate dealing with the world when I am stonned, I can do it on occasions but mostly I love being in mediation style mode with my music lol as far away from people as possible :)

I am sure there is some science to it, like the body releases hormones as soon as it gets dark that works better with the THC, I think.
Only thing about smoking at night is it effects REM, however sometimes this is good thing, as it can stop bad memories bad dreams etc, I haven't dreamt in a long time.

half an hour after dinner, 7 or 8. enough time to get it together before sleep and not wake up feeling dreadful

Stolen parcel
Hey biggas, how does someone go about dealing with a missing parcel?
I live in a HMO (shared house) and have had issues with another or possibly multiple residents nicking my parcels. I messaged the vendor to let them know A) it hadnt arrived yet and B) could i get tracking to make sure i can arrange for someone to grab it so it doesnt get stolen. Almost a week later i get a reply its been delivered. But not to me, and ive checked the post area and safe place for the house and nowt.
Any ideas how to proceed? Not sure if grounds for dispute or not, first time having this issue.
Any help appreciated biggas!ā

Hi Smokasaurus š. š¤ Mmm..I no a guy who had similar issues with parcels getting robbed at a shared house.. think after a couple of missing parcels. He changed the tracking info ( once received it) to have it as pick up at his local sorting office) collection. And never had any problems again. Always take ID if you try this method. Or an alternative š¤. Set up a camera. Find out who's got itchy fingers š¤ or even word your postman. But like Fire Extracts says,.. they aren't responsible if a parcel has been delivered to the address and some thief has intercepted it before you.
Honestly im starting to wonder if collecting from the post office is a good idea. Need to get my ID sorted š¤¦š¼āāļø
If i had anywhere i could set up a camera i 100% would, getting tired of it now.
Thanks for the reply Jay, will look into those options. All the best bud āš

No worries mate š hope you get it sorted. If it was myself living in shared accommodation. Id be questioning each tenant. Eitherway have your mail/ parcels sent to a safe address for the time being I would.let the postman know whats going on. Good luck with it šš.
Thanks bud.
Have planned a deterrent. Cant say theyre going to enjoy what they find next time they open something they shouldnt š©š¤·š¼āāļø

Hi Smokasaurus š.. lol š¤£ yes definitely worth a try.thatll teach them to intercept other people's parcels. . sounds like you'll definitely get to the bottom of this unfortunate situation. Good luck. And if you do find out who it is. They deserve what they get.. šš
Hi mate yes you ordered from us and we sent it and was delivered .how can we be blamed for this I'm sure everyone will agree it's down to your theiving housemates it's sent tracked and was delivered we done out bit we're not responsible for people in the address you gave us stealing the parcel bro come on
I did not say it was your fault. I clearly stated im asking for advice from anyone with experience?
Right. Because that is the only thing in place on the site that we have to protect ourselves. If there was an alternative id be using it, thats why im trying to find out.
But to set things straight, if i wanted to blame you, WHICH I DONT, id have said straight up "if youd provided the tracking when id asked for it, to avoid this from happening, it wouldnt have happened. Your comms are responsible" as well as naming and shaming, but as you can see, ive done neither. Neednt worry, ill go back to buying elsewhere.

Thief will be dealt with, may update here depending how it goes!

I wouldn't reship/refund for something that isn't my fault.
If royal mail lost it, then sure, I would reship it.
If the parcel has been stolen because you live in a shared house, that's completely not a vendors fault and you don't have grounds for dispute. If this has happened before, I'd contact your landlord or setup a trap to catch the thief.

See thats fair enough. I appreciate the response, thats basically what distinction i was trying to make, if the "lost/seized" rule only goes that far, then that's totally understandable. Not had this happen with a LB parcel so wasnt sure is all.
Landlord has been informed, no idea what they plan to do about it š¤·š¼āāļø
I however am going to order something rank (think i saw you could get actual animal waste delivered somewhere) and see how long that takes to get returned after being stolen. Not what i want to spend money on but better than keep losing money in the long term.
Thanks again for the reply and all the best šā

I've had similar problems with neighbours stealing parcels, it's not cause for dispute I rang royal mail and now postie knocks on my door finally getting out of there now. Hope you get something sorted!
Thanks for the reply, im glad to have the clarification. Im working something out so it doesnt happen again, first and last LB parcel to go missing hopefully!

Why lie
Why lie
So I was about to message a vendor about my next order and seen this, which started an internal debate. (Yes Iām sober)
Why do some vendors still try to sabotage others? Is it actually as prevalent as it looks? Does the algorithm really affect how much money people are making? Does the review score really affect business? How much effort goes into posting fake good reviews?
Anyways I just wanted to kindly say fuck off to anyone that chooses to lie at the expense of others while trying to personally gain.

Anyways I just wanted to kindly say fuck off to anyone that chooses to lie at the expense of others while trying to personally gain.
Each to their own always but I jumped to the conclusion of a lie when it said not as pictured. Which I find quite hard to believe considering.
Also fits the bill of how some people operate to ācleanā a bad review. If itās a new account with a single or a few bad reviews, itās blatant. But if you order from yourself a couple times and scatter some scores, it looks more legit.

But you canāt see what the reviewer was sent so how can you know? Bit of a leap to get your conclusions imoā¦
probably a similar leap that youāve made to assume itās honest. But Iāll explain mine since Iām obviously boring. A profile with 2 of 6 orders at 1/10 while reviewing a vendor thatās literally took pictures of his own plants for the listing. That makes me think ānot as picturedā is a lie.
Am I missing something?
The reviewer is saying that what they received, doesn't look the same as the vendor's photos.
It doesn't matter who took pictures of what, what matters is that the product received doesn't look like the product pictured.
And how is "2 of 6 orders at 1/10" suss, but 3 of 6 orders at 10/10 not?

I do like this world of unquestionable trust you live in. Why do you assume wholly that he received something different from the usual top shelf? just because they said? If it looked so different and was horrible, Iām sure most of us would post a pic with review to prove said claim.
You can believe what you like and Iāll do the same. I was in Afghan at 18 which taught me some serious life lessons with trust. Literally is the difference between life and death, or being able to walk or not. I trust kig as heās earned it over the years, I donāt trust a rock bottom review without proof from a new user.
The overall number of orders is suss to me, personally donāt consider anything as genuine until 10+. Much like many vendors on here not dealing with new profiles.
Was genuinely more interested if people knew about how the algorithm affects business and if order volume go in line with the scores.

Been off it for a couple week actually cheers. Iām sure if you seen your pals legs blown off because an ANP berc moved some arc markers and lied about it, youād probably be similar. Tbh Iām not dealing with my gf cheating on me for years very well
I don't get it. Why is a buyer so invested in a single review from a random seller? Also the replies sound more like coming from the actual seller than a legit buyer.
I can screenshot messages if you think Iām some way affiliated, because Iām not. It probs just says Iām a nutter with no life. Tbh I can imagine heāll want it deleted for that reason.
I donāt get why a brand new profile with no posts or orders decided to reply to this though.

Strong vapes/carts
Slightly above your price range, but I've loved all of the different carts from Psychonauts. Don't think they'd guarantee shipping today though...
Yeah very good and great value. They have one or two types available at the moment plus a freebie deal. Be fastā¦.
I made a purchase and will get a freebies too. Can't wait to try it out. Will post a review but unfortunately i have high tolerance so no idea how it will work with potency
Its a big problem with carts- they shoot your tolerance to the moon. Perhaps take a few days break and then enjoy it all the more?

Micro dosing for adhd autistic mind where ?? Thanks
Hey guys looking at micro dosing mushrooms or LSD type drug for dealing with ADHD autism , struggling with some issues and hoping it might provide some relief .
Thanks people š
Thanks people š
Rocket dog Ronnie has a stack that mushroom works for me. 0.2mg I think. It works for me once or twice a week where im at just now. Id take firet thing in the morning as my sleep is messed. He has a typo on the listing but I confirmed its chaga not changa in his stack.
Not sure where your at bigga with audhd but if your deep in burnout i needed to focus on sensory, sleep, nutrition, movement, sunshine/nature first.
Even a small microdose was too stimulating initially and would keep me up all night

i've been doing this for years, a fellow ADHD person who also suffers from anxiety and depression. i managed to get off meds altogether by microdosing. i dont mess with capsules though i just take 0.25g of mushrooms every morning 5 days on 2 days off. it doesnt work for everyone but its always worth a try.
we've got some deals on at the moment feel free to check it out

I'm a vv big privacy person and Im curious what others do to stay safe?
I personally do alot of things to stay safe so much so that privacy-ignorant individuals have told me im paranoid.

I do use brave browser I suppose. I don't use a VPN or anytime that. I occasionally use tor to access society.
I haven't left a big footprint online tbh

Like others have said absolutely nothing. But I just donāt think privacy exists for normal internet users or anywhere in public. Iād rather enjoy my privacy by walking 5 minutes into the woods or go climb a mountain. I appreciate the time spent alone in nature, I couldnāt really give a toss that some snakes know my browser history. After all everyoneās data is basically compromised one way or another.
Would that be a certain list pertaining to an imaginary bald man from northern ireland? Lol, if so, same. Well, one vendor from that certain list for me.
Indeed. In fact, ALL the good ones are on there. How nice of the person who posted that list to put them all in one place for us. So considerate when you think about it ;P
as i've got older and the processes have become more complex... i've started to think it's just kind of impossible to carry water in a basket.
Im curious what app replacements you all use?
as we know big tech is constantly spying on us and selling personalised profiles on us. I use proton&mullvad, any other apps i just use an available FOSS or OSS alternative

For ordering I use vpn to come on this site and anything else frowned upon by those pesky police, also order under a fake name to different addresses to prevent doxing
Only lose end is crypto as I use revolut but Iām looking into more private ways of owning a crypto wallet

I buy monero with coinbase (with kyc) transfer the monero to cake wallet (no kyc) exchange for btc straight to the sellers address
LB should add a payment processor for monero tho fr

pretty fast ngl, its just 2 transactions instead of 1, and ai have to since KYC is mendated to buy crypto here iirc
I do a similar thing with moonpay and nimq. Small steps to make a big difference (and now I sound like a fucking supermarket advert or something)
heehee! does though, you never know when the other shoe will drop with the whole "criminals use bitcoin" bullshit (I know they do, but most of them are in government and big corps)
At least here in the UK, banking has way more criminal transactions then cryptocurrency at least from publicised numbers, Maybe its so low because of how hard it is to trace criminal transactions with monero?
Who knows! :p
Who knows! :p
Problem with that is, that's the logic they are using to push through legislation which allows complete bank spying, innit. Hohum. I take cash out the bank and pay cash only in person. If a shop is card only I'm like "byeeee". Obviously online there is no such possibility but I keep online purchases to the minimum possible. Like, I don't want a trail of where I spend money, just to middle finger that shit. They can look in my bank, but they won't see much. Until there's another big manufactured crisis and they scrap physical cash for cbdc's. No idea what I'll do then. Cross that bridge when I'm at it's thresh-hold I suppose.
Well said electrorainbow
And I'm afraid the biggest risk to our privacy lies in our BTC purchases.
When the UK Exchanges start uploading data to the Taxman next year (BitPanda just relocated their UK based operatons to a UK address for future compliance for instance) then the pain will kick in.
The Taxman miht not necessarily care about what you do wiht your crypto but he sure wants to tax you on every transaction.
This is our Achille's Heel: There will be no hiding your purchases unless you use peer to peer.

kyc not me should be the first place everyone checks. secondly we should all be using a legit secure operating system like tails OS everything on there is run through tor including crypto wallets.
the problem with smartphones is its all traceable VPN or not. ideal security method is bitcoin to monero via a no kyc exchange then stored offline on an os like tails until needed.

nimq, it's completely decentralised. You can see some of my other posts to see my "paranoid process" for crypto transactions. As a very famous (and very dead) man once said "just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after you". He wusny wrong.
Absolute pleasure my lovely. That makes my day to hear, considering the very minimal effort it was for me to write.

anyone pick strains by terpine profiles?
anyone pick strains by terpine profiles?
i know the real weed nerds don't even say sativa or indica but how do they apply terpine understanding to make choices?
A simple method if you have no prior knowledge, is to search the strain on Leafly and see what terpenes it contains.
For example, if you search "Wedding cake Leafly" on Google, you will get a description of the strain along with it's most prominent terpenes. Wedding Cake's most dominant terpene is typically Limonene.
Once you've figured out your terpene preference, simply check Leafly to see which strains contain the terpene(s) you prefer, and tailor your purchases accordingly š

Iād like to see vendors include more about terpenes with their strain info but as Anon1385 says we can all do our homework tooš
It is a fascinating subject if a little overwhelming š¤Æ
It is a fascinating subject if a little overwhelming š¤Æ
In my mind.. its all bro science at the consumer level. Ive been considering this since trying medical cannabis even then you dont always get repeatability between batches, or will get misdocumented strain genetics and even seeded batches which impact it all with decreased potency.
Indica and sativa can be useful to describe the effects you dont want ie i react well to indica but certain sativa strains keep me up all night.
In an ideal world yes terps and the combinations of terps with the full spectrum of cannabinoids would be what we focus on in with combination understanding what works for us with our own needs specific to our genetics, neurotypes, nervous systems and cannabanoid receptors and required medical effects.
What works for one wont work for outhers but may help inform.
The buying soley on terps is like going and buying on thc percentage from leafly various strains on littlebiggy.
The unknown we cant quantify or qualify without having in hand is the bud quality, grow type, grower preferences, clone or seed, harvest type, strain genetics and phenotype all which can have a huge impact on the terps and the end product.
As an example unless the strain is actually tested for terps from a for purchase sample how can you tell its dominant on linalool or limonene.
For me i keep track of strains that work for me, and what there parents are. Then look for that else where.
Saying that what im looking for sleep chill will generally be indica dominant strains hindu kush, gmos, og kush, or some indica dominant hybrids. Then if im looking for a particular strain for something like rls then i know strains like black cherry punch seem to help me on that respect

That's a top point yeah, grow does massively impact terpenes but strains should be consistent of what terms are dominant
However if you get medical it'll be measured and is always detailed accurately on the label as mine does from releaf.
Biggest issue with weed is misinformation both research and black market sellers. I dont lkke sticking to onr strain for too long.
Mixing up strains with different terps mixes massively helps keeping tolerance levels below an ounce a day though so is helpful on a money saving basis for me too

And the whole sativa/indica underastanding is wildly wrong too, far too simplistic and doestn really work at all
The assumption is that sativa is uplifting and indica is couch lock inducing but its not accurate at all. Haze for example is a sativa and supposedly good for day smoke yet haze is heavy AF on Caryophyllene and mycrene the two terps that help sleep.
The whole sativa/indica misinformation is a symptom of the insane war america and the UK have waged against weed and the total lack of research until the last 30 years, meaning nearly everything the public think they know is utter gibberish
I see weed a lot like autism, every one talks about but very few people have a clue what they are actually talking about
Terpenes are the best way to know what flower will do what.

Terpenes modulate, fine-tune, and enhance the effects of the cannabinoids and are at least as important as the cannabinoids.
Knowing your terpenes and what works for you will give you a much better cannabis experience.

Yeah its essential. The terpenes are the determining factors in how a strain effects you. If you rely on cannabis but dont look at the terpenes then its like taking a random shot at the bar blindfolded.
Sure you may get the THC impact but thats pointless without the right terpenes imho
But I smoke a LOT and for a multitude of reasons, most stoners I know dont know what a terpene is lol

Hit or miss edibles
Why is it that edibles are so hit or miss for me? For example the edibles from gassed if I take 3-4 of will get me fried while other ones from different sellers I'll take huge amounts and feel nothing. But these all have great reviews so clearly it's a me thing. Is there any way of figuring out myself what edibles will or won't work for me before buying? Been losing quite a bit of money trying different ones lately
Edibles Almost never worked for ms in the UK... Evrn when it does its extremsly light even afyer 500mg 1000mg...i even taken so many of these full doeses so many times... So i thought given the reviews it must be a me thing...... Fast-forward 2025 summer went to canada... Their edibles are limited to 10mg... So did not feel anything either BUUUT... We went to the Reserves where they have some exemptions to the Canadian law and taxes as well (Native Canadian Reserves)... Bought a 1000mg chocolate slab (Shatter infused) from them as well and took 1 square worth 100mg.... 2.5-hours in and I was flying like a freaking kite..... I jave never been that high in my life.... (whilst there at times i have smoked 14g worth of weed per day and some of them infused rpre-rolls....diamiond, shatter, resin and dabbs)....even then this kicked me the most and extremely unexpected.....
So i can conclude its really down to the quality of the product and countries where this is legal know how to make good and effective stuff.

Sort of but with the ones that don't work I'll just end up eating tons of it which would equate to a lot of mg but still does nothing

Any AI music makers out there?

Any AI music makers out there?
I'd like to know what tools are out there for putting something together thank you my biggz
wouldn't this defeat the point of creating music if the AI dose it for you ??? then its not your creation ???
think of it relative to any instrument, the music won't exist without the human programming it. a song is a combination of several layers of these programming decisions.
even if you were to make an independent, self learning a.i. that makes all the decisions above someone would have to write that and someone else is likely going to use it as a track in their own thing. and the beat goes on.

Until the AI can write itself or future generations of itself :). Agreed though that humans will incorporate all of it into their own creativity.
I am of the Nick Cave school of thought that there's something soulless about purely AI generated art and music; it might get there one day but it's pretty derivative and crap at generating lyrics/stories/tracks etc. That part is just a gimmick for now. I'm not sure it'll ever get there.
I feel like more likely for a long while it'll churn out mediocrity and pastiches that keep us satiated; everyone generating their own personal games, movies and fetishes in atomised bubbles ;). Not true art that is about striving, curiosity, passion, love, insecurity, even failure - all very delicate, human qualities.
On the other hand, the human spirit is very strong, and who knows what AI (or some AI-human hybrid) can produce in future. For eg the improvement in its video generation in 1 year is pretty remarkable. Imagine every brilliantly insane artist having an unlimited budget to tell epics at a tiny fraction of the real cost. So who knows where it'll go. Wild times.
I'd also add (as someone said) that everyone thought we'd all lose interest in playing chess when computers completely outstripped us, and that hasn't remotely happened. Creativity will surely go on, as you say. Humans are resilient.
I can't say I'm not worried though. I think about it a lot. At its best superintelligent AI could be almost a godlike presence that heals us in every way and improves on our "lowly natures". At its worst it could be some corporate demon we unleash or a mindless self-propagating machine that treats us like ants.
Anyway haha I am too stoned off some great hash from LB and rambling too much...

They seem to be the best but you cant have too much fun with the lyrics. Can't wait for something better.
Hmmmmm. Not as such.
But as a grass roots guitarist vocalist i have found a free app called moises that seperates the voice stem from the guitar stem. You can then blend like two track. So it gives a very good retrospective mix from raw recordings. It also has time and pitch shift functions. And a simple metronome. It also guesses your chords and can guess lyrics. It works well as a prompt.
Ive taken these files and then sent them to chatgpt and asked for a "theme" to be applied.
Im still crap but the fake parisienne audience seemed to enjoy it.
Bon chance.
A very simple application.
One which many will currently be resisting...

Hard to beat waking up in the wild and remembering weāre not supposed to live in electric boxes surrounded by constant shite and anxiety. Donāt have social media so posting here instead.
Unfortunately notš itās a cheap bivvie wrapped in my old issue tarp. Still woke up abit soggy
Thatās a prime late night bake show. So relaxing watching him fight -30 while wrapped up in a duvet.

Volcano or TM2
Hey Biggas.
Missed most of the sales due to shrooms and weed, hey ho. Want to do something a bit spenny to get off the jaaaints and my mighty is not hitting the spot. Iāve got a bubbler, that Iāve been using as a bong like a student.
Would you get: Classic Volcano, one of the new-fangled volcanos or the TM2? Itāll live in my garage, where I have a camping chair, like a saddo š¤£

Going legal?
Hey Biggies, anyone gone down the medical cannabis route?
I've had my first consultation and qualify but the feedback I've seen on the cannabis is really poor. I really like my current seller on here who I've shopped with for a while. It's only the worry of travelling with weed (if I'm working away I take a few days worth) and to put my partners mind at rest as she worries about me being reported.
I'm very surprised at the prices and the fact you can only order 10g minimum! It also isn't graded. So it really is a gamble.
It makes little sense to me as some of the people who need it the most don't have money to burn. It seems like a massive money making scheme.
Anybody gone legal but still orders bm and just puts it in the legal prescription containers? Any advice?
Thanks biggies ā¤ļø

Apex has been on medical for couple of years now.
There are some great examples now available but also some absolute shit that tastes like hay š¤¢
And youāre a smart cookie, I always top up my legal containers with bm treats lol
Currently Iād recommend the āsudzā 5.50 per g and tastes and āvapesā clean and white.
Feel free to dm me anytime for recommendations mate.

Royal Mail Saturday Delivery
Hi guys! A question RE Saturday deliveries- Are special next days still likely to arrive? Or only Saturday delivery?
I fear a vendor has sent me a special delivery when asked for a Saturday delivery, and worried I'm going to be left dry for the weekend haha, its been 5 years since I've been suddenly totally without the medicine
(I also ordered on Thursday tracked 1st class which also, never showed up from a different vendor yesterday, total refusal to provide any tracking and I found a down-review sadly against all others which stated over 5 days before even actually sent, hence tracking hiding... but they do seem mostly reputable so a chance this does arrive today?? Crazy how much a little 'out for delivery' check ability would change the stress)
Sticky situation! Just moved! haha
Also-Saturday is still likely a day they post at all? Had a look and don't believe I've ever seen a postie on this road on a Sat

royal mail do deliver on saturday so hopefully one of the two shows up today. Ive had 24hr tracked turn up on saturdays so if you ordered special next day and the vendor posted it yesterday before the last collection then im pretty sure it should arrive today. royal mail are pretty good in my area but in some areas they seem to have more issues with delays.
Thank you for the positivity mate! I'm actually going as far as walking up and down the road in stress haha!
Thank you so much bro, but yeah the special next day hasn't got any tracking update since posting (All others usually have movement, so assuming, not being posted Saturday has meant today is no good--Of course, no reply from vendor yet)
As for the 1st class tracked, total refusal and no sign.. I imagine it hasn't actually been posted yet... so I presume I'm in for my first ever sudden-cold turkey weekend after 5 years!
Any tips for me? Sweating and didn't sleep last night haha! Anxiety go crazy. walked 5 miles yesterday, just replies of "its dry around here" when I even went to try source backup haha

It didnāt - but Royal Mail came forward when it did on Monday with apologies saying this was a Saturday jobbie :/
The other vendorā¦ flat out lied sadly, and didnāt provide tracking because they sent it 2nd class when 1st was purchased

how to clean a bong?
how to clean a bong?
looking for the laziest, most hands off solution yall have
iso+salt shake it theneave it for a bit.
(prolly depends on the design but)
for me completely clear & clean everytime, i love it
(prolly depends on the design but)

Exactly this! I have been doing it for a while. I never wanted to research what reactions are caused adding salt to isopro though, I just hold my breath and shake. Sparkly clean every time. I tried doing it with water, but it just dissolved the salt, so I am assuming there is little to no reaction with alcohol as the salt doesn't dissolve.
the salt is used for being abrasive, basically "scrapes" any build up off your glass but without scratching the glass
due to this coarse salt is the best :3
(09:54 bst)

Ahh, gotta have pristine glassware!
Run it under a really hot tap so most of the worst melts off, then a few squirts of iso in a spray bottle and rinse. Takes 30 seconds
I find a quick swizzle around with a cocktail stick is great for grabbing all the tar out of bowl stems too.

Cannot send messages
Hello everyone!
First of all, I need to say that I already made a similar post on the help page, last Wednesday, but still have no answer.
Last Monday, while exchanging private messages with a vendor about an item that wasn't yet available on his page, I stopped being able to send any messages or post.
This happened on my main account.
Now, every time I try to send a message, I get an information saying I cannot send messages. I also stopped being able to create posts so I cannot even ask for help with that account.
I was able to buy the item I was discussing with the vendor, but I still cannot send any messages, even on the orders page.
What can I do to solve this problem?
Thanks!

Possible review error
Possible review error
Does anyone know if there is any way of getting a review amended or removed? I have had a recent review of our Magic Mushroom chocolate bar that says "Best choc on LB, power.", but gives a 1/10 score. I presume the reviewer typed into the wrong box and intended to put arrived in 1 day, rather than the 1/10 score. Any advice would be much appreciated šš¼

THC vape juice
Any vendors selling thc vape juice that is actually THC and not synthetic? I used to buy ones from other sites but it was giving me chest pains and then I know this company that tests drugs and there is so many thc juices and most are tested as synthetic... I am looking for something real and pref potent. Vape juice not carts. Please. Thanks biggas
Iāve tried many times in the past, sadly itās not really possible with current technology, you can use wax liquidizer but itās just a mix of peg400 and PG which wonāt taste nice and is potentially harmful. Iāve also tried mixing it with just PG but it tastes so bad itās un vapable. VG is what makes normal eliquids taste nice and sweet and THC will not really bind with VG so thatās not really possible, you can make very weak VG THC mixes as some people have said but they just really arenāt worth it. The majority of āTHC eliquidā you will find will be spice. I still believe a cartridge is the best way to smoke it
I donāt think thereās a fully safe way to do it if you leave buds to soak in liquid then itās really weak and underwhelming
If you use chemicals think itās vg 400 or something then itās harmful to your lungs
Even if it is actual weed e liquid then itās really harmful
Sadly Iām pretty sure thereās no safe way

Have deffo seen UK vendors doing this. You could make your own vape juice with a product called "wax liquidiser" and any concentrate (preferably a oil/extract). Personally I think live resin might be the best option (I've not actually tried any, have one on route). But this won't give clouds, is very strong and isnt full of artificial flavours (I know some like that).
My mate had vape juice of a dealer a while ago, it was very clear and blew your head off after a couple puffs so told him I don't think it's thc (it was also cheap). He gave me a bought and I bought a drug testing kit and it turned out to be a synthetic cannabinoid called AM-74 (or something similar). Quite a risky substance.
Only time I've tried a liquid type vape was a stiizy in California and it was heavenly. I use a dynavap and xmax V3 pro herbal vape.

Passing Piss Tests?

Passing Piss Tests?
Hello biggas
I have a friend. This friend has a job where he could be randomly drug tested at any point. It is likely to occur at any point within the next six months.
My friend has been a regular, dedicated smoker of cannabis since mid teens, and is now thirty years old. My friend has a relatively large build, weighing about 92kg and 6ft tall. My friend would say he has a relatively slow metabolism.
My friend is naturally pretty concerned, as he does not want to lose his job. My friend has been looking at detox drinks, fake pee and fake pee smuggling systems, pee detoxification additives, and more. Due to the random and unforeseen nature of the drug tests, these solutions seem impractical to my friend, and would require him to keep them on his person at all times at work.
My friend is planning on quitting cannabis cold turkey from Monday, and feels he has no choice. However, he's concerned that even with quitting, due to his chronic usage, cannabinoids could still be found in residual amounts in his metabolites for many months, and is wondering if there is any reliable way to detox the body.
If any bigga has advice relating to this extremely pertinent issue, my friend would be very grateful.
Thanks

Well thc is stored in fat cells, where it can stay for month to a few months like you say, and there's not much you can do about that - my opinion is detox items and the like won't work well, but definitely no harm in trying!
the key things are though: stopping completely asap, staying hydrated and exercising. Burn off the fat = burn off the thc.
Heard someone a while back saying saunas helped, but take that with a pinch of salt.
Basically my advice is your mate just needs to get on a decent health kick. Good diet, high in fibre (to help with digestion), no to little fatty or processed foods (again, fat cells), exercise regularly and hydrate.
Also recommended fasting (skip breakfast, nothing at all one a day week), as without any protein your body will start to use its own fat cells to feed itself.
Important point: Such a drastic change might have negative consequences, so tell them not to push too hard and keep an eye on their general health
hope this helps!
(oh and you can buy piss tests online, might be worth a shout so he can monitor how he is getting on)

Thanks for the well constructed and meaningful response. This is all great advice my friend will take on board.
I have an ex work mate (I left he wasnāt sacked) who has a real fondness for nose candy whoās passed several tests much to the bosses dismay šš. Carrying clean pee does work but itās usually the heat of it what gives it away.
If your friend has any time available before the test. Keep a hand warmer hidden (shoes a good place), you can buy them cheaply. Once you hear that the drugs crew are on the warpath start the hand warmer to warm up the clean pee. Bobs her uncle. Hand in the clean pee, spark up a fat one and tell them to chase themselves!!! Hope this helps.

I've had similar issues in the past. Passing an entry test is a piece of piss lol. Just use someone else's and keep it in a test tube vile thing between your nuts and a leg so it keeps correct temperature. Tape it to your shorts, not your leg and nuts ;)
Random tests are much riskier. However, I don't know how legally binding they are. My last one made me sign a declaration that I could be ASKED for a test at any time. Check the wording.
Luckily in that job I started at 10am and I could spot the drug van on the approach and I'd sail on by and call in sick.
Only other I can think is Xydot or whatever it's called these days. It does mask your piss for up to 5 hours but it's tricky timing.
I've only tested it at home with THC testing strips. You need to drink it at least an hour before and have 2 pisses before it works. So you still need some warning.

If your friend is really worried maybe they should think about a medical cannabis prescription till they detox completely. Might save their job and seem pretty easy to obtain

https://forums.medbud.wiki/forums/medical-cannabis-eligibility/
My friend has thought about this, but my friend is obliged to report any changes in medication to his employer due to the dangerous nature of his work. My friend is concerned that while he may not lose his job due to the medical cannabis prescription, he could almost certainly have roles and responsibilities and tickets removed, or measures put in place barring him from certain aspects of the job. Needless to say this would not make him popular at his workplace.
Could he somehow switch his pee with someone elseās? Not sure how that would workā¦would prob involve concealing someoneās pee on your bodyā¦ š¬
Makes me think of that old Cheech and Chong scene. Theyāre driving in the van and Chongās got a sample of pee to take to his drugs counsellor or whoever.
āUsually I take it in an old jar so they see all these bits of mayonnaise floating around and they think Iām on some weird drug again.ā
Stoned chuckle.
āBut today Iām really gonna fuck with his mind cos I had my sister pee in it tooā¦ā
āā¦and sheās pregnant.ā

50/50 Hybrid recommendations?

50/50 Hybrid recommendations?
Hello fellow Biggaz,
For context, I'm a returning smoker. Before last month, hadn't smoked since about 15 years ago. And I'm loving everything here.
So far, I've only had some Skywalker OG from GreenCat, which was awesome, but I'm wanting to experiement and sample much more. And with the SOG being an indi dom, I want to try something that isn't going to get me so couch-locked and push me to sleep.
I'm especially intrigued by the possibility of a sativa influence encouraging creativity. So the question is, which 50/50 hybrid have you tried and would you recommend that gives a nice balance of chill and relaxed but might help creativity?
On a side note but linked, I just received my (second ever) order off here - some Cherry Candy Ropez, from a very popular vendor. I chose it cos I thought it would match the criteria I'm looking for in a hybrid. But disappointingly, extremely disappointingly, it was stale and dry and I don't how many months old. I find it hard to fathom why a well-thought of and frequently recommended vendor would send out something that is clearly only worthy of the bin. I don't want to name and shame, I'm new here, with only two orders. Granted, it was cheap, so I don't feel bad about putting it straight in the bin, but I'm just more pissed off cos I was looking forward to some good smoke, but does that mean anything cheap on here should be avoided cos it's going to be trash?
All that aside, would love to hear from like minds and chat. Hmu with your recommendations.
For context, I'm a returning smoker. Before last month, hadn't smoked since about 15 years ago. And I'm loving everything here.
So far, I've only had some Skywalker OG from GreenCat, which was awesome, but I'm wanting to experiement and sample much more. And with the SOG being an indi dom, I want to try something that isn't going to get me so couch-locked and push me to sleep.

Chocolate shroom dosing
Hi biggas,
Bought today the shroom chocolate bar from SpaceMan and it will be my first time trip ever. As well as I am sensitive person. How many pieces you think I should start with biggas?

Go slow, Iād say try 2 pieces or 1/4 of the bar max. If youāre loving it after 90 mins have more. I found these fairly strong and 1/2 a bar was plenty for me.

Puffco Peak Pro 3DXL

Puffco Peak Pro 3DXL
So, I'm contemplating getting one of these in the 420 sale, and wondered if anyone had experiences, both good and bad?
I'm particularly concerned about the lifespan and replacement of the chamber as it's over Ā£100 alone without any discounts! How long do these realistically last?
Is it worth the experience (and cost) over a Klein recycler and e-nail that I haven't used much as it requires maintenance (and soaking in iso when it gets regularly clogged) and I think about this then skin up some weed instead?
Any constructive input greatly appreciated.

ive had the 3d chamber on the peak pro die after maybe 100 dabs, the 3dxl bought at the same time still going strong 1000+ dabs later.
i love my peak, but in the 420 sale i got a pivot for nice walks with a few dabs on the way, and i have to say that i wished id got two of those instead of a peak. there is silicone in the airpath and the battery only does about 8-9 dabs, but they only cost 100 quid and heat quicker, easier to clean and produce equivalent hits. id sooner have two pivots in my pocket and spare cash for extracts if i could go back! my 2p anyway

Iāve had my peak pro for the last 8 months, the 3dxl chamber itās self I havenāt bought a replacement as of yet. Saying that though I iso clean my puffco and chamber every couple of days to extend its life span
Mighty, honestly do yourself a favour and press the trigger now, thank me later! I own multiple and they are amazing. Should you get an extra glass? maybe, should you get another chamber? 100%
I've had my 3D XL as soon as it came out so nearly 2 years now and works flawlessly. Investment from the beginning does seem high but honestly it pays itself back within time. I know people that dab that the butane prices were becoming ridiculous so they swapped to a puffco. Anyway, try get one now when all the shops have it on sale. I get 90% as good a dab from the 3dxl without any hassle that comes with the old tech banger and torch. Get it and thank me later :)

I'm so tempted, especially with current sale discounts. The length of time that people have kept the chambers without changing them is very reassuring.

Why have you bought so many things, and what draws you to the New Peak Pro in particular after the piatella hit? I think I may pull the trigger soon, if convinced. I still have loads of Barz LA stuff to smoke (vac packed, in a cool, dark drawer, and a year old)...
So
All bought one at a time and all irked me eventually apart from my vapour cup favourite toy on the list by far, Iām a magpie I was hording over 80 srains a few months ago even I was shocked when I wrote it down
Been toking since 92 more paraphernalia lying about than herb museum
My northern buddy has been banging on and on about the peak pro xl
It pains me heās right lol
Smooth and holy shitballs the terps on the piatella were the best Iāve ever tasted
Also left me totally spangled

Totally spangled sounds just like what I'm going for! Why the new Pro vs the old Peak you had though? My credit card hasn't ticked over yet so I probably won't get this until Monday if I pull the trigger...
I've had the 'puffco proxy' for about 2 months, daily use, it's great. Easy to clean.
I had the cheaper chinese alternative for the puffco peak which was the soc peak - worked absolutely fine.
What do I suggest? Trying the soc peak, it's under Ā£100 in most places and does the same job as the puffco peak. Massive clouds.

I almost pulled the trigger on a puffcoā¦.
But went with the core xl instead as a bit cheaper and had money left for 7g of extracts.
Not a bad little device at all for me and gives big tasty clouds

I've had my peak pro for 3 years now. They are worth the money in my opinion after having several devices before that. I'm probably gonna upgrade to the new one soon with the 3d chamber. The atomiser is delicate you can't get them wet and when cleaning just soak in iso for 30 mins if you do that you'll be fine. Also if you brake the glass is another expensive replacement. But for a portable e rig you can't beat them.
There's an option to get accessories at a discount if bought with it, so should I realistically get another glass, and a chamber? If I get one... How long has yours lasted between replacements?
I've had one replacement atomiser and 2 glass replacement but all my fault. I got water in the bottom of the chamber by knocking it over. The chamber I've got now I've had for 2 years. The device itself is really well made you'll notice that as soon as you pick it up. I would say get a spare of each if you can. But depends on how well you look after it but if anything get a spare glass.
Thanks for the advice. Discounted, they seem sensible additions to the order.
How has yours lasted 2 years when they warn that they're consumable products with a 1-3 month lifespan? Excellent cleaning on your part, and they're possibly overly cautious for liability purposes?

Got the new ppeak in January, been using standard chamber every day since then. Just keep it clean as others say. Nearly killed my mate on his first draw on the white light. I got a davinci QC in Amsterdam, used it twice but donāt like the draw, to weak. Trying to get rid off anyone knows of anyone looking?
List it on here dude? You're not exposed in any way (drive 3 towns over before posting, obviously) and you get Bitcoin to use on here, after it's sent to your non-KYC wallet?
I will look into listing and how to do. I donāt have a foggy on it at the moment but if Iām stuck can I give you a shout?

Edibles that don't taste like weed?
Anyone got any recommendations for edibles that don't taste like weed? The taste and smell makes me gag and it fucking sucks, i like getting high but if it tastes weed-y I have to hold my nose and choke it down like a toddler... usually end up throwing it out. Wouldn't mind skipping the trial and error if anyone knows any sellers that are heavy on the flavouring in their gummies...or can point me to anything else that doesn't taste skunky lol. Figure I'm in the minority but maybe someone else knows my pain, many good gummies ruined by the taste :(
Oh cheers, I'll take a look. Haven't had chocolate before, could be the answer. I use pretty sparingly, other than cones going stale do they still taste ok after a few weeks/months?
There are 5 in a bag. They tend to last a couple months before they are too stale. The chocolate is good for a while though.
Can help on the gummies front. We have 20mg bears in mixed fruit flavours, and high strength 70 mg cubes for those with a higher tolerance. Definitely no weed taste with either.
Eagle Bakery is your friend, their 200mg d9 pick n mix are delightful. 10 in a bag, 20mg each - depends on how your tolerance is. But they taste great

Which vape tank for thc distillate
Hi which tank do I need for thick thc distillate oil ,got a1100amh battery 510 thread.Are the wolf teeth tanks any good? Just need help on which tank for very thick oil cheers
Would like to hear suggestions too. I've been using the ccell style full ceramic 0.5ml carts. Opted for the 0.5 ml as wanted to reduce the chance of burning the coil out before it was empty.
Many use the ccell th2 Evo tanks too. I expect they're pretty much the same.
Those wolfteeth ones you're looking at presumably on Amazon do look the same as the th2 so likely a rebranded unit but idk

if a cigarette is a fag what is a joint?
I thought a spliff was weed mixed with tobacco and a joint is purely weed.
Seems to be that way in America anyway.
Seems to be that way in America anyway.
Americans don't mix tobacco when the roll up, so a small skinny roll is a Joint.
But a hefty fatty roll is called a Blunt.
In Europe we tend to call a tobacco mixed with weed roll, a Joint or Spliff, Doobie, Zoot, Reefa etc.
But a pure cannabis roll whether it's small or huge is usually referred to as a blunt in EU

Crafty+ Advice
So for some time ive had a Crafty+ and just not really been able to get along with it.
Ive dug it back out and am planning to give it another go.
I was wondering if anyone also had one and any tips advice they might have for maximising flavor / general usage.
In the past ive never seemed to get much flavor through so always gone back to spliffs.
Any advise/input appreciated ;)

I've had the mighty for a few years and I fall in and out of love with it š
Using a coarser grind on the weed and leaving a bit of room in the chamber for convection made the biggest difference for me. I also pack into dosing caps to keep the oven clean.
Changing out the cooling unit for something that was easier to clean was also a great improvement.

Ill defenitly give a coarser grind ago. I know what you mean about the cooling unit. Tried to clean it out myself earlier to get a clean start and it was a bit of a nightmare tbh.
I've managed to get 3 of the original cooling units and still get them all gummed up before I can be arsed to clean them.
I settled on this: https://vapefiend.co.uk/products/the-rattler-for-mighty-mighty
Tip of the hat to Polly for the recommendation.

Tip of the hat to Polly for the recommendation.
Start at a lower temperature and work your way up to the higher temps. I think youāll get a lot more flavour that way and the bowls last longer too. I usually start at around 150. If you start too high you lose a lot of the terps.
Ah, ill give that a go! ive be starting quite high in the past. 190+ not quite sure why to be honest. Thanks!
I usually only go above 190 if I have hash or a concentrate in there. Hope it works out for you, Iāve got a Mighty which is basically the same as the Crafty aside from the battery and controls.
Used mine for years. Best tip is to keep it clean. I bought a cheap sonic cleaner and some iso... Makes life so much easier. Don't let the seal rings sit in iso though (just a quick wipe should be enough)
If you can't get the cooling unit apart, then sit it in some hot water for a bit to melt the sticky resin.
I have my temps set 380, 395, 410f iirc

Ive not long learned just how much of a difference keeping it clean makes, it can be quite alot of effort to clean too. Cheers mate!

I love using my crafty for hash and other concentrates, especially the good expensive hash available here.
Always use vape wool to mix the hash into as it will keep the unit clean and makes lots of vapor clouds

Edibles (again)
So back again, have tried a few reccomended vendors for edibles and unfortunately still not a single one that seems to work for me. Ive tried shatter based, d9 and d8 based, and finally just tried some live resin based and again, nothing. Background info, i have been able to get high off of edibles before, and just recently had a T-break, so i have no idea whats going on. Any advice or further reccomendations welcomed, also curious if anyone else is still having the same problem?
If you have an 'acidic' stomach edibles may not work on you. I would suggest having a Rennie tablet or similar, or even some Kefir yoghurt, before you take any. I had a similar issue, 125mg didn't do a thing, but I've adjusted my diet & now 30mg gets me nicely mellowed out. My go to edibles are the 'Full Spectrum 30mg gummies' from Dr. Distillate for the evening & the 'Concentrate Capsules' from MJconcentrates for daytime dosing. I gave up smoking in November after about 40 years & these have been my saviours. Hope this is useful, cheers.
Have you tried any that are infused with RSO? Bald Eagle Bakery do top notch RSO/D9 gummies and Rocket Dog Ronnie has some great FECO/RSO edibles. CK's cones are also top notch, not sure if they have RSO but they do the trick.
Havent gone as far as FECO/RSO yet as its the area i have least experience in, and from my understanding if they arent processed correctly they can be dangerous? I need to research some more i think.
May give it a go, or considering upsetting the neighbours and making a strong batch of cannabutter as i know that works, im just lazy š

I find the FECO/RSO mix is great for sleep. I think with RSO it's not safe to vape or smoke but it's fine for edibles. Give RDR a try, I think you can grab a nerd rope for less than a tenner.
Don't think there's anything dangerous about FECO. It's just decarb weed tincture that has been reduced down to concentrate by evaporating the alcohol.
rocketdogronnie has great FECO edibles and is a top fella to boot. i imagine he'd gladly send you a wee sample. (by which i mean a small sample, not piss.)

Ive also tried gummies, straight distillate (d9 98% pure or so i was told) tried infusing that in a few things as well as smoking in a bowl and j and nothing š¤·š¼āāļø
If it wasnt for the fact that ive got high off edibles before id be starting to think theres something wrong with me š

The edibles that got you high before, were they gummies as well, or something else?

Most success ive had has been with cannabutter based brownies, they work most of the time, and one Dark web buy that worked out was a wonka medicated choc bar but i only ever found that as a one off about 6/7 years ago now
Ok, so it sounds like the delivery method is the key.
Edibles are better, if they are bound to fats. So in your case, butter or chocolate.
I want to see if we can crack the code, Iāll message you šš¼

Hi mate the only ones it do it for me are radarbreeders gummies and I am the same done loads a different ones and these are the only ones that really fuck me up lol read the review on them on his page got loads on it good reviews one bear is 60mg I have a high tolerance 2 bears gets me wasted hope this helps
Hi Smokeasaurus,
You say you've had success with cannabutter in the past. Do you happen to remember the amount of weed used in the batch and the dose you took?
My thinking is your "dose" of cannabutter may contain a lot higher thc % than the edibles you are trying? Also, cannabutter is fat based and if you also had success with chocolate (also contains fat), then is it possible you need a certain amount of fat to help activate the thc? As far as I am aware gummies don't contain fat, or at least, very little? So, maybe a little chocolate/fatty snack with your edibles would help?

Making RSO edibles for newbs
Making RSO edibles for newbs
Hello biggas! Hope all is well! This is my gummy making journey so far!
I have been interested in making my own edibles just for fun really, and I've been experimenting with RSO gummies.
The first ones were a disaster, soggy and never dried up, second were too firm, third batch was just right.
However, dosing was a disaster! Some gummies sent you to space, some took you nowhere.
This is my recipe so far for good gummies without extract:
1 x 8oz packet of jelly mix
3 x sachet of gelatin
2/3 of a cup of water or juice
Half tsp of citric acid
Add liquid to jelly and gelatin In a Pyrex jug, leave to bloom for 10 minutes.
Put Pyrex in a low simmering (but not boiling) water bath until the mixture becomes liquid
Scoop off any foam
Add citric acid
Remove from heat, pour into molds and set.
This recipe makes excellent gummies, but as I said before it's the adding extract which has stumped me! I was warming it and adding to the mixture just before pouring, but with mixed results.
According to this article:

Apparently I need to distribute the RSO In glycerine, and add soya lecithin.
Unfortunately the recipe asks for a liquid mould inhibitor which I can't get, although I've got some powdered potassium sorbate so will be experimenting with that. Although some places say if the water content is low they don't need preservatives?
Anyone had any luck preserving gummies? And how to dose correctly? I've seen some people saying they dose each gummy individually but that seems laborious.
Also interested in using distillate and shatter In future but RSO seems like a good beginner starter.
Gummy creators, help a Bigga out! I hope your day is sunny and your weed fragrant :) LD
I have been interested in making my own edibles just for fun really, and I've been experimenting with RSO gummies.
The first ones were a disaster, soggy and never dried up, second were too firm, third batch was just right.
However, dosing was a disaster! Some gummies sent you to space, some took you nowhere.
This is my recipe so far for good gummies without extract:
1 x 8oz packet of jelly mix
3 x sachet of gelatin
2/3 of a cup of water or juice
Half tsp of citric acid
Add liquid to jelly and gelatin In a Pyrex jug, leave to bloom for 10 minutes.
Put Pyrex in a low simmering (but not boiling) water bath until the mixture becomes liquid
Scoop off any foam
Add citric acid
Remove from heat, pour into molds and set.
This recipe makes excellent gummies, but as I said before it's the adding extract which has stumped me! I was warming it and adding to the mixture just before pouring, but with mixed results.

This is a great post. Very informative.
No idea about specifics mate, but you'd definitely need some edible medium to distribute the RSO or whatever through, so you end up with a consistent distribution of the product to minimise these large variations (which you already know). You'll need an accurate way to measure volume, and I'd suggest a quality lab pipette that can handle viscous fluids as then you could add a defined volume to each gummy (pipettes which suck up one large volume and dispense multiple small volumes would be ideal). Probably plenty on eBay, and you could probably get them calibrated if you could be bothered.

Thanks dude :)
Yeh I'm thinking the glycerin is gonna be the ticket for distribution with this one, although as a Bigga said it'd be easier with chocolate but I'm stubborn and want to do these gummies
Good shout on the pipettes! I keep finding I need more and more kit but that's like with any hobby I guess.
Or if I measure the molds then I could dose that way?

I used this video years ago to make my first gummies.
The key is practice and experimentation, finding what works best for you.
If you want an easy option, just use chocolate which is great because it is fat based and already contains lecithin etc.
Edit: You can get liquid mold inhibitor online, Lorann make some.

Thanks for the link mate, will check out.
I've heard that chocolate is way easier, although I am definitely up for the challenge of gummies as I love cooking.
Yes for sure the lorann stuff is what was recommended but it's out of stock apart from the huge bottles everywhere I look :(

Once you get the recipe down, and they come out right, it feels great. It's definitely a journey!
This is definitely right I ended up messing with temperatures for better consistency.
What did you find helps temperature wise? I saw someone say that stirring for ten minutes at least was essential for gummy texture and I've been doing that but no idea if it makes a difference

How Would You Save the Roman Empire?
The barbarians might have finished them off but the Romans did it to themselves. Extraordinary powers given to an Augustus wind up producing a Caligula.
I've always wondered about a time line where as Christians they see the immorality of slavery and we wind up with an industrial revolution a thousand years earlier :)
I think they saved lots with Constantinople and Christianity. We still use a lot of their language today and even arts, law and engineering.
We are still in the Roman Empire, only the 2nd coming, the International one which spans across the continents. The Romans never lost, neither the Ā£Ā£Ā£Ā£s.....

Hit empty carts, anticipate if/when the postman will come that day, seek instant gratification on my phone to distract myself. It's always a bad time.
Same same here mate š

I received my parcel yesterday and was actually about to offer the postman a coffee. As soon as I saw him at my door, a feeling of eternal gratitude came over me.

Gotta love homeopathy! Like , how do people believe that! Then again todayz magic is tomorrows medicine and all that!
Feel like shit until I get some more. I know each person gets there own thing from smoking pot but for me personally it just helps me blow off a little steam and keeps me level headed and if that makes me an addict or what ever so be it it I know itās helped me countless times when Iāve been stressed or going through some shitty stuff in life and for that Iām forever grateful š

Need hash recommendations
What's the best commercial hash on here right now? Not looking for any crazy extracts, or stupidly expensive hash. Just looking for a good quality, preferably filtered commercial hash.
Don't know if anyone remembers the PSG Critical TheHashCollective23 had over a year or so ago, or the Dry Kush Filtre or Banana Kush hash they had, but that for me was perfectly priced and perfect quality commercial..
I realise there are plenty of well priced commercial hashes on here, but I ideally need something stronger than the bruce bangers, sunshet sherbets, pakistani blacks etc.
Something that bubbles under a flame, terpy and kicks your arse at a decent price. Any ideas guys? Max I would pay is like $750 for 100g, $220 for 28g, something around that price range.
For context, the PSG Critical was like $650 for a 100g bar and was some of the nicest hash you'd be likely to find in your life. Was over 35% THC if I recall correctly. Seems like hash prices are going crazy recently
Cheers

We have this one, I don't know a great deal about hash though I have offered some testers and feedback has been very positive, a fair price too I believe.
Thanks

Did you manage to find anything similar to the Dry Kush Filter? i remember a couple vendors stocking that in 2023 and it was a lovely smoke, very clean and terpy with thick blue smoke and it was priced very fairly!
nothing that's been suggested so far is similar to the Dry Kush, I need to get a hash order in today or tomorrow but it's so hard to find good clean hash nowadays, 95% of the commercial is not like commercial hash used to be a couple years ago, the only way to get round this is buying premium hash but not many hash enjoyers can afford $30 a G
where's the middle ground? there's so many weed "mids" on here, need more hash "mids" like the Dry Kush Filter

Eddys has got 10 different types of commercial hash and a mix-n-match ounce is $250 might be worth getting a few different types in if you haven't had them. Happy hunting mate š

Had a couple small dabs of some nasty damp/mildew smelling and tasting BHO extract today (crumble) and I've been unable to sleep with itching all over my upper body and head, ears and got a couple itchy spots pop up on my chest and chin
Think it's worth getting checked out? Anyone else had anything similar? The bho smells just like damp mildew like a cold damp shed, initially thought it was coming from the jars it was stored in but idk why I'd get this side effect
Had plenty of bho in the last decade and not had this happen or had anything smell like that

Is it just me?
Is it just me?
So I don't know where to start, but I feel I'm stuck Ina rut. I feel uninspired, like I'm in the depths of darkness and my torch just ran out of batteries. Long story short I was going through court for access to my children, 3 years and nearly 5k later and I'm back to square one. Feel to just give up, it's been a hard fight especially when the opposing party doesn't even turn up to oppose. Someone help me please, I've been drowning for so long
Have a look at some spiritual teachers on you tube such as Eckart Tolle, Ram Dass, Mooji Baba. Read Eckart Tolles āThe Power of Nowā All were life changing for me after a traumatic incident in my life. It wonāt fix things immediately but it allows you to look at things from a different perspective and find some peace. I hope you can find your own peace and wellbeing. š
divorce is almost tougher than death and way more stressful.
many elements of it are driven by other peopleās emotions and are out of your control.
all you can do is be the best person every time you can. living this and knowing this is the only reliable solace you can find. and it can only help outcomes for you and the kids.

Ah mate I hate to hear all that, don't give up fighting in general - it's the fight that keeps us going.
Try changing your routine, get playing a sport and/or get to the gym, different diet, find new hobbies and other people who enjoy the same interests as you.
As others have said regarding your children, they will find out how hard you have been trying once they get old enough to realise that their mother has been using them as a weapon. This will go in your favour, stay strong brother.

Hang on in there my friend, you are a very important part of those kids lives even if you are not with them we know its hard to stay strong but all you can do its control what you can control.
Focus on the things you can only do even if that means only you showing up in the long run your efforts will bare fruit in the end.
Stay Strong

Stop throwing money into it. Be more selfish and focus purely on yourself If the mother is literally withholding your children from you. It sounds like you love them so they will want to see you one day, especially when their mother has no say in what they do.
What ever happens buddy, don't get to braking point. Don't do anything stupid just keep pushing on till you find something that makes you feel a bit better about stuff. Whatever is happening now is only temporary and your kids will make their own decisions as they grow up. I'm sure your kids will just be happy that your alive and hopefully healthy. No idea of your schedule but find a distraction like going gym if you don't already or something physical to burn energy and release endorphins.
I can only offer advice not that i have any idea of how I'd handle your situation, but i know i'd need a distraction. I hope you see your kids soon š

So many kind and wise comments here :-)
I would add:
It's okay to feel despairing sometimes, it's important to acknowledge that. Just try to not let that consume you, or be all that you can feel. There will be other parts of you that don't feel that way - can you access them too?
What's your support network? Who do you have around you that you can talk to, and who will really listen? If there isn't anyone, then explore ways to make meaningful connections.
Try journalling, every day, raw and unfiltered. Get some of the feelings out. Rant and rage, on the page. Gratitude and self-compassion practice.
Meditate. Prioritise sleep and movement, eat well. Find things that bring you joy, that give you energy.
Build a life for yourself that isn't contingent on you getting access to your kids (while acknowledging that it's incredibly important to you).
Take the best care of yourself that you can - you deserve it and are worth it.
And don't smoke too much ;-)

Sorry to hear you're having a hard time mate. All i can say is, as someone who had an incredibly shitty parental situation, you're doing the right thing by those kids by going to the courts, the willingness to do that shows incredible strength on your part. BUT, you've gotta take care of yourself too friend, burnout catches us all if we arent careful. Take time to rest and refuel. Watch your fav shows, have a music session, a good meal, chat with a friend if you can and remember you're not alone. Wishing you all the best, stay strong

Dealing with Death
Hey everyone,
Sorry for the doom and gloom post! I found out a few days ago my father has terminal cancer.
It's killed me, I lost my mother a year ago and I've struggled to find myself again, and when I finally felt like I have, I found out that he is terminal. He has about a month if he is lucky and I feel like shit. I feel like shit for not stopping life and focusing on him completely but I know that if I did that would kill him quicker. I just don't know which way is right for me and I feel like I'm making the wrong decision every day.
All this to say, does anyone know of any good coping mechanisms? I would appreciate it.
Thanks.

Hi friend, without canna right now so clear head.
So sorry to hear the news, i've had many pets and a beloved family member pass in my arms.
My father passed of cancer and it was pretty quick.
I stayed with him at his place and the first night i balled a little in front of him which was wrong.
Balling your eyes out helps but don't do it in your father's presence.
I dunno if you believe in God but now is the time to start praying, pray for your father and pray for strength for yourself to get through this.
You need to do things together, create memories as these ones will last.
Ask him about things in the past you're unsure or unaware of, try get to know him better.
Be his little helper, nhs is woke nowadays, you and family /friends must fill his heart with love and comfort.
Do all you can for him, give him a big hug and don't let go, kiss him and tell him how much you love him.
Just cry, cry your eyes out and ball to the heavens. music is a healer also. Try getting out in nature with him, away from the modern heartless way of things we find ourselves in nowadays.
Take care my friend. God Bless.

well said!! @ddboom! op so so sorry to hear the horrid news. All i can say is take small daily steps. Your not alone in this and spend as much time as you can whilst you can with your dad. Good luck my friend and never forget your not alone!!!!!
I lost my father to cancer 6 years ago. I don't know about your dad, but I know that mine hated it when people wrapped him up in cotton wool. Cancer sucks, and you should cherish every moment you can, but it's not in the least bit selfish or unkind to also live your life. I struggled with a ton of guilt for similar reasons though, so easier said than done.
My thoughts are with your father.

Hey buddy,
You wonāt need to be religious to read The Tibetan Book Of Living & Dying (on Amazon). Itās a very important book that focuses on how we can help and support the dying so they have dignity, calm and peace. It frames the event of death in a deep, timeless and sensitive way for all concerned and is designed to help everyone in a practical way. Even if the spiritual teachings of Bhuddism are not for you, itās designed to be a help for everyone. I hope it can be for you and your father tooā¦.

Iām really sorry to hear this.
I'm not sure how old your post is - so I hope this is still useful advice - but speaking with a helpline can make a huge difference.
They will understand the issues youāre facing - without judgement - and are likely to offer both emotional support and practical advice.
Using them as a sounding board, and being able to offload or vent, can make it a little easier to decide which 'way is rightā and can help find ways to manage these shitty circumstances.
Helplines are there for exactly these reasons.
Youāre not somehow being annoying for calling. They want you to call, so do reach out if you think it might help.
Personal experience means I really know the difference they can make, and Marie Curieās helpline may be a good option for you - 0800 090 2309
I hope this helps a little

I am so sorry to hear about the news brother, stay strong for your dad and make the most of the time you have. BBDoom couldn't have put it better, so much good advice in 1 message.
It may sound silly but ask him what he would prefer in terms of your time, it will take a tiny bit off your mind and maybe his too.
Heart goes out to you, my chats always open if you just want to vent or anything.

Could do with some wisdom on how to help it stop repeating
Cheers
try playing white noise to escape, you can adjust this 1 to something that works
Cheers Ike been interesting playing around with that . might end up putting it on a raspberry pi & let it play in the background
Iāve had tinnitus for about ten years now, was a nightmare at first but after a while you wonāt hear it as much you just get used to it. Rain and white noise apps really help, have it on every night now or in the background whilst Iām working. Apparently there is an operation they can do on your ear to try and fix it but was told it was more likely to do further damage.
Iām not sure, I smoke most nights so that may be contributing to it. When I first got it, it was horrible for about a week but then settled down, I barely notice it now but I do need to use sound apps.
Definitely agree with ike, white noise or I found rain sounds just as good when trying to sleep. you might have to have it on a bit louder than you think but youāll find your level. Good luck
Visit your GP. They'll refer to ENT. There's not much of a rush with it though unless it's like a heartbeat in your ear along with tinnitus which is what they call Pulsating tinnitus. If it unilateral they refer to ENT too. Could be due to wax build up or if you've been to any concerts recently etc. I find pink noise works for me.

Dealing with disputes as new buyer
Hello Biggas,
Been on this website a few years without an account and finally made one earlier this year.
Wondering what I should do when a vendor is unresponsive even though there is an ongoing dispute. I donāt have many buys so I know the āreputation basedā will rule much more in his favor but the guy is straight up ignoring me. I have no problem saying itās GreenFinger who seems to be quite notorious for dogshit comms.
Wondering if thereās a borg I could message about this?
Iād rather not dispute but the guy is just full on ghosting me.
Appreciate any advice

Always dispute in these situations. In some cases opening a dispute will provoke a response from the vendor. If they make no attempt to make this right then chances are the dispute will go in your favour. Good luck mate.
Choose your vendors wisely. Message them before a buy to see how responsive they are, if at all. When you find decent vendors then buy regularly and get a decent relationship going. It's getting harder and harder to find reliable vendors on here, but fortunately there are still enough to keep me and you in all levels and price points.
It is reputation based, and I'm not sure what the level to get anything back is, depending on recent sign up and whatever? I'm sure you appreciate it's probably stacked against new sign-ups with disputes to prevent people taking the piss. Definitely dispute though. Amazing how quickly unresponsive people respond when you do!
Good luck, nevertheless! Never buy from them again. I certainly won't as I've seen a few negative posts now. Added to the ever expanding list of people on here not to deal with.
'Algorithmic settlement based on reputation will occur at...'

Most disputes are settled without Borg involvement. Once you dispute it puts a boot up the vendor and once you agree a resolution you click to cancel the disputeš
100%. Think I've initiated 7 (like the number and it seems accurate) disputes, and only 1 has gone to algorithmic settlement, and I had 100% back when I had about 25 orders. All other initiated disputes were resolved amicably with reasonable and often decent communication, and then cancelled when resolved. When the resolution arrives, whether at an address or a wallet, obviously...
Caveat Emptor, always.
Caveat Emptor, always.
The issue is that I made a post on his profile, you can see it, and I disputed it, and Iāve even extended the dispute to give him time to response and he is still full on ignoring me.
It wasnāt even that big of an order so I donāt give a shit about the money but like the guy is being an absolute piece of shit and I donāt want to have a dispute on my record because of this.
Finding vendors that ship to my location is tough and Iām really not trying to have disputes as a mark on my profile when finding good vendors is already hard enough.
Would welcome any ideas or feedback

I think you have handled everything correctly here, it's just a shame the vendor isn't responding. Sounds like this one is heading for a borg settlement, good luck mate.
I don't think having a dispute on your profile will do you any harm. There are plenty of vendors on here who won't even look for that information. If in doubt send a message to the vendor you want to buy from before you buy. The Spacemen are a good vendor to start with if you've got a new account as they have no minimum buy requirements and their comms have always been decent with me.

I don't k ow how old this post is but I'll second the spaceman for new users.
2/2 ordered and landed, not a single problem and the grub was nice aswell.

No problem. Payday coming up soon so I'll be ordering, I've been eyeing up those mushroom choc bars aswell, I take it there in stock yeah?
The longer you are here and the more orders you make the more likely you are to eventually have dispute(s). BUT length of time here and order totals are THE most important builders of algorithmic reputation. Winner!š
Use the dispute system. Itās what makes LB great!š

Extract opinions?
Extract opinions?
So pay day is rolling around again and so the item browsing intensifies,
I occasionally buy a g or 2 of extract but am by no means a regular buyer of them. I don't have a dab rig so they go in cotton bacon or flower bombs.
My favourites have been the budder and sugar types but I haven't tried all types as I usually go for what's on offer.
Definitely getting some of the extract of the month from myconauts this month, but I can afford to stock up on a few extra this month, starting the Christmas stash.
So what would you recommend budder, sugar, shatter, diamonds, caviar, wax or any I missed if you use extracts please give your opinion, what is the best for stone, taste and value? Please feel free to recommend and link a particular favourite.

You wouldn't tell much difference on what you listed apart from diamonds haven't much terps, there all made with solvents just different processes. Best value for money would be shatter. Rosin is king especially hash rosin.
Yeah I agree on the rosin mate but it is thin on the ground in my price bracket. Hopefully the good stuffs purple punch drops again soon cheers for the response š
From the BHO family I find live resin is the terpiest, the rest are all kinda similar, but even that is just anecdotal.
Strain and quality of starting material, is more important than the final form.
Strain and quality of starting material, is more important than the final form.
Live resins, and diamonds in terp sauce are a good shout then, they stand out based on my experience, Dr Distillate or Myconauts.
Crumble, sugar, shatter, all the rest all seem to be on similar levels of terps.
But honestly mate, for the terpiest experience with how you (vape?) yours, bubble hash all the way. Not BHO but still a concentrate, I get 8-10 hits of pure terps when vaping a good bubble hash.
Strength just depends on the strain/genetics for me personally rather than the form its in. Some food for thought, enjoy!

Cheers man dont worry the bubble hash is a different part of the budget.
I have just cropped a few plants so some of my usual bud spend is being diverted to the hash budget and some for the extracts

Can someone recommend a good pipe?
Can someone recommend a good pipe?
Hello Biggas - recently cut out using baccy in joints, started smoking pure. But then had a period in some remote countryside where I couldn't even get papers (and had forgotten to bring any), so switched to a pipe and realised I much prefer dosing it that way! (and also end up smoking less).
Just have no idea where to start and where best to buy one. Can anyone recommend a good pipe? I've only ever used metal ones so what are glass ones like, what's the benefit? Appreciate any advice :)

You are so close mate you have done the hard part, just take the leap and go for a dry herb vape you won't regret it and the extra outlay will come back in savings on bud
High from smoking is undoubtedly stronger than dry herb vaping. You can vape bowl after bowl of bud from a tinymight and you will fall asleep before you get near to the high from a bong hit.
Pipes are good. I have a freeze pipe for hash itās ok. Have often looked at the HOJ KOL but never pulled the trigger. Genius pipe is also popular

The high is definitely completely different.
Which Freeze Pipe did you get mate? I have their beaker bong and their Klein Recycler. Needs to have iso put through it more than I was expecting when dabbing. The KĆL Mini is a lovely pipe and very easy to clean when using it for hash smoking.

Hey Rux I have the spiral hand pipe. Tbh I donāt bother freezing the glycerin anymore itās fine at room temp. I would 100% love a nice glass piece but they are not discreet enough for my current circumstance. Agree about the cleaning too hence my longing looks at the KOL
As other people said mate, get a mighty medic. Iāve also got a rocket stem cooling chamber for mine as it requires 50 times less cleaning and also easier to clean. I vape all day in work to make me more āapproachableā and then get on the joints when I get back home. Keeps me on a really nice level all day then when I do go for a more indica based joint, the paranoia seems to be non existent as Iāve progressively built up a tolerance throughout the day. Also the amount of money youāll save on the vape is insane! I smoke 2 x .2g caps in my vape and feel like Iāve smoked a 1g joint itās great but more mellow š¤šæ good luck in your search!!
Nice one mate, thanks for the tips! Yeah a combination sounds perfect actually. And yeah when I was using the Pax, I saved unbelievable amounts of cash!! Itās crazy the difference.
I mainly smoke joints mate, but vape much more rarely than I should in my Mighty+, but I've only needed to get a pipe for hash really. I'll add my vote to the others saying a dry herb vape, and anything less than the Mighty+ may make you yearn for a higher experience, so save up and look for offers/discount codes. Congratulations on quitting tobacco!
Thank you mate! Will start saving for a Mighty+ now! :)
I also heard very good things about the Arizer Air Max - which is quite a bit cheaper - but also why get a substitute when I can wait a bit longer for the real deal!

You can Klarna it and spread payments here https://magicvaporizers.co.uk/mighty-plus-vaporizer
Keep an eye on the price on here as it can fluctuate a bit, and look for discount codes too. They also do a deal where you can get loads off a grinder if you buy them at the same time, or did last time I checked. Had a superb deal on a Herb Ripper.
I might have to quit the flame unfortunately so a dry herb upgrade is on my mind too and i've started saving for one, narrowed my choices down to the Mighty+, the TM2 and the Volcano I think, seems the Mighty is king for versatility, the TM2 for the hit and the Volcano for those big hits, feel like one of these will work for me best but i've also been told to investigate the Bakx as it could be a winner.
I gave up the baccy a few years ago but know i'm going to find it harder to do this, trying to find something that gives as close a hit as possible to a purey or glass but also needs to be nice and easy to maintain as i'm a lazy bastard...
I'll miss the glass though, nothing beats a good bong/pipe blast with a purey chaser.

First 2-3 weeks were hard for me mate.
Went mighty but wish I got the volcano as i donāt go out š that being said itās good for fishing.
Any of this mentioned should be good, I got a dynavap too as that helped with missing holding a joint š
I had carts at hand too so can top as needed

After more research Skunky I think you made the right choice going for the Mighty and I think i'm probably going for it too, seems to be the only one on my shortlist I cant rule out.
I don't think i'll get on with the bags on the Volcano and the Tm2 seems to have a built in reliability issue surrounding the power button, the AirVape Legacy Pro has made a late appearance on the shortlist as it seems like a really decent vape at a good price but is a huge ballache to maintain without the dosing caps and they aren't very good apparently.

Yeah man, itās all been said before but Mighty dry herb and pure joints as a treat/evening sleepy time is my strategy. I do use a cheap silicone bong for hash sometimes though, when it doesnāt work in the Mighty. I might invest in a dynavap soon, purely for hash. Heard nothing but good things about it.
Honestly I just like to use what's known as "spoon pipes", they're durable, easy to clean with ISO and pipecleaners and are good for both bud and hash. I just bought a mini bubbler too and that's been a bit of a game-changer, all the convenience of a pipe with the water filtration of a bong. There's a whole world of pipes and bongs out there man, enjoy!
Iād highly recommend a PhatPiggie Thermal accumulator! Itās basically a portable ball vape. Get the TA3 tip and a nice wooden stem. PhatPiggie does sell custom stems but it can take a while as he makes them to order. Easier to buy a Dynavong stem off vapefiend. You have to hit him up on Insta. Send him a message. Lovely fella. Sells direct to customers. This thing is tremendous- like a Dynavap on steroids! You need a torch or induction to heat the fucker but oh boy. Big clouds, big chest hits. Very satisfying š„š. Few videos on YouTube. I have a few vapes such as the mighty, Dynavap and Arizer solos. TA3 spanks the lot of them. In my humble opinion of course. š think Iām a bit mashed. Soz. Hope this reads ok. š¤£
Anything Glass Really > I have a Tiny might 2 > but the novelty has worn off ā¦get online and order glass pipes ā¦.you canāt beat it for the hash and weed flavour etc > the The Tiny Mite is a novelty item use it for a while and then go back to the glass pocket pipe thatās how it went for me ..

How do you biggas consume your RSO?

How do you biggas consume your RSO?
Just tried RSO (in cookies) for the first time and the effects are lovely. Thinking of buying some in a syringe but not sure how I'd consume it. How do you consume yours?
Tried a retro flying saucer drop today. Not as good as the nerds chaser but something sweet definitely helps
I ate an APE shroom the other day and it was, texture wise, almost exactly like the outside of flying saucers!! 2.2g that bad boy was. Lovely Thursday afternoon. Wish I'd had flying saucers.
Yeah. My gf convinced me to do an additional 1.7g when it was around (always set a stopwatch, dear readers!) the 2 hour point of initial ingestion. Didn't massively trip, didn't cry, so ergo not the psychedelic experience hoped for. All at once, or don't bother with extra, no matter what anyone tells you. They probably want to sell you more shrooms when you run out... Oh, and grind it up to start!
My mum + I both use it for sleep, after eating i dose it out on a chewy sweet (like a percy pig lol) and just eat normally. An hour in and im zombied.
A few stoned nights Iāve made incredibly poor choices on what to consume the distillate/esp onā¦ crisps was a bad choice.
š¤£š¤£š¤£.
The crisp disappeared and I was left with half a mil smeared into my teath. Took hours to disappear.
I should write a book.

I saw a video on YouTube one person put a rice grain size on to baking paper and put it in the freezer for 10-15 mins then he just swallowed it, seems less likely to cause a mess.
Been making my own FECO lately and have found that diluting it in MCT oil makes it easier to dose from a dropper bottle under the tongue. I find it most helpful when rubbed in to sore joints so have been putting it in rollerball bottlesš
I squeeze some onto a piece of toilet paper Lol put it under the tongue and let it absorb sublingually for a few minutes before swallowing.
Small rice grain sized dab on a nice bite size bit of your favourite chocolate or sweeties really easy going to ingest and masks some of the taste if your not overly keen šš»ps Iāve still got my own teethā¦justš«
Being a clumsy twat I always seem to end up with blacktooth or hulkfinger when i try and eat it so I just squeeze out what I want on a thin rizla, wrap it up and bomb it, no messing š
Haha that's a lot of RSO.
Is it easy to accurately dose with a syringe? Or is it easy to press a bit too hard and get more out the syringe than what you want?
Is it easy to accurately dose with a syringe? Or is it easy to press a bit too hard and get more out the syringe than what you want?
If it's real rso produced properly and or not diluted you can push the dose out of the syringe before it's in your mouth and the rso should just hang there
Used to take it neat but sometimes got a bit messy.
I mix it 4:1 with MCT oil and use a dropper. Much easier to keep tabs on quantity and also no mess

Exuding it on to a Rizla (silver, obviously... silently judging your rolling skills otherwise...) is my current method of choice after discussing this many times with B0W and it was mainly over my (Hulk) finger and teeth that I was convinced to change methodology.
Looking in the mirror while trying to get it out of parts of my teeth and consume it properly, I felt like some kabuki performance that had tried to smear too much nori as a cheap black teeth alternative...

I smear it over a rizla.
Put in end of finger then add to the chocolate in my mouth.
Mixed it in a cartridge with some disty.
I even accidentally added to my tea when heating up the syringe.. was a nice twist on tea. Try it.
I would like to start making my own to ensure what Iām taking is the full 600mg that should be achieved.

I would empty a Beachams cold and flu capsule and fill that up with my RSO it would smash me up for a couple of days.
You can get empty capsules off amazon and fill them yourself. Check the sizes though I got 00 which are pretty big, fine for my mct diluted oil but probably bigger than you need for pure rso.

This evening some local kids have stressed me out by playing knock down ginger for about 3 hours š what a stress I've had! I've been off work for 5 weeks now due to poor health.

Sellers who provide tracking?
It's been a while since I've bought anything and was wondering which sellers offer SNDD and provide the tracking number?
I only ever used sellers who gave tracking number. Thanks and appreciated.
I only ever used sellers who gave tracking number. Thanks and appreciated.
The Gentlemen Dealers always share their tracking codes and have a 100% record for NDD with me.
We usually provide trackers when asked about in DMĀ“s. - We always attach it to the order once marked as sent - Are the attached trackers even visible for customers? Or do we always have to pm them to every customer. Please let us know as we want our customers to track their orders themselves.
Thanks in advance for clearing things up.

Just a bit of fun folks I have grown a few seeds from some free HarryPothead shake samples, in an attempt to figure out what it was, but just got Harry written on the label. I don't know anything about Harry Potter but I know it could spawn some cracking strain names. Any suggestions for something more creative to write on the jars would be welcomed I think one bag was supposed to be stardawg but neither smelled like it.

Coil king AIO
Not so long ago I bought the coil king aio wax pen. I don't know if any of you have tried it but I bought some concentrate off here to use in it and I struggled a lot to get good hits off the pen. It was melting but I just didn't get to inhale much. I don't believe the concentrate was the issue because when I did manage to hit it it was definitely potent. Does anybody who's used this pen have any tips or maybe should I be buying a different type of concentrate?
I got one of those recently. It takes a bit of experimenting to get it how you like it. I gave up leaving the concentrate on the dab tool and just stuck it straight on the coil. Found high temp setting the best. Held button down until I could see vapour coming out of the holes, this could take a couple of presses, then went for the straight to lung hit.
The best thing I've tried in it has been the purple punch hash rosin from the Good Stuff which gives loads of vapour and great hit. Crumble and shatter have also been good.

Buying a Tinymight: š§±š° v š
Buying a Tinymight: š§±š° v š
So I have decided that I am now a fully fledged DHV convert, don't judge me blazers I have put the hard yards in with combustion, but the lungs were begging for mercy and they are much happier in the short time I have been vaping. I have had a good browse and decided to go for a tinymight but I can't figure out if it is worth paying the extra Ā£50ish for the purple heart or just go for the walnut version and spend the Ā£50 on accessories.
Any advice welcomed, thanks

A big thanks to everyone who helped me decide how to blow my budget this month. Arrived today before I left for work so got a quick snap. The cotton bacon's name is perfect for the photo. I am going to be a mess this weekend š¶āš«ļø
Heheā¦.everything you need there!š¤©
Let us know how you get on and your favourite stem!š
Let us know how you get on and your favourite stem!š
After some extensive testing yesterday, it was the rocket stem I chose for a wake'n'bake this morning so it just edges it as a favourite, but I would happily use any of them the stock stem gives a little bit more heat so slightly closer to the combustion hit on the inhale.
I just got home from work and hit 3 small bowls of homegrown blueberry in the TM2, probably what I would usually do in 2 in the xmax but hammered them way faster than I could have done 1. The main difference I can say is the volume of the vapour you can take through it. The xmax is like sucking through a thin drinking straw and the TM2 is like a hose pipe in comparison. Now I have the 5 dosing caps for the xmax it is going to be helping me walk the dog. Really pleased with my purchase. Going to lie down now š«
Thanks for the reply!
Remember and try the Xmax glass mouthpiece without the metal screen and with a dosing capsule. Itās a game changer!

Had to come back to you on this one mate with a big thanks. I have not been using it for the bud, but for vaping bubble hash, rosin and all extracts / concentrates the little stainless steel dosing caps in the xmax with a pinch of cotton bacon wrapped around it on session mode is fantastic. It's cleaner and cloudier than using the little concentrate cup that came with it. I had been looking at dab rigs, but not now as I can put anything in these and don't need to worry about cleaning residue off, just dump the bacon. For under Ā£100 it is definitely a little star thanks for the inspiration MrG
Aw youāre welcome, yeah the capsules are great for hash, I find I get a couple sessions out a bit of squidgy goodness.
Also I am due you a thank you! I went and got a TinyMight 2 and Iām loving it. Your thoughts on it helped me make up my mind, so thanks pal.

What do you currently use?
TM2 is a ripper (Purple Heart is for bored fanboys, you donāt need that!) but beyond that itās not very versatile. The supplied stems and cooling unit are frankly rubbish so you need a 3D glass or Rocket XL stem right from the start. Itās not a sipper (like the Mighty) so you need to want to take big rips and temperatures are not very precise.
In short, would you like to buy mine?! šš
The Venty is GOAT, but there are still lots of units having software issues and although mine has been trouble free so far š¤š¼ it might still be wise to wait for the V2ā¦.

I bought the xmax v3 pro to see if I could get into it. I have not been on the pipe since so I am looking to invest in something on the next level. I am probably mostly attracted to the tm2 for the big rips after smoking bongs and pipes for so long, I have priced the rocket xl stem into the mix. I just couldn't see a difference with the purple heart so thanks for clearing that up. Is it worth getting dosing caps? I will end up buying a venty aswell no doubt so I will wait for the v2 cheers š
If you havenāt already you should get the glass mouthpiece for the Xmax and a dosing capsule, then take the metal filter screen off the glass mouthpiece.

Thanks for the tips mate, I only just spotted the glass mouthpiece for the xmax yesterday and it is added to my order I will add some dosing caps aswell, I am thinking the xmax will be still getting plenty of use and the caps will make it easier to use on the go.
Ah ok, sounds like the right top shelf device for you then buddyš
Dosing capsules are pointless unless you want to take a magazine of them to a festival. The ones designed for the TM2 are horrible so if you must then buy S&B ones. They donāt keep the oven any cleaner as its design stops it getting dirty anyway. I use them in the Mighty for hash and sandwiches but the TM2 is really only for weed.
Youāll love the Rocket XL and it means youāll never have to clean the crappy little TM2 cooling unit. Enjoyš„³

The glass cooling stems with balls (via Vapefiend) also significantly improve things with the TM2 - and weirdly seemed to make my flower feel more effective. Much easier to clean than the cooling units they provide too.
Perhaps not as efficient as other vapes, but Iām also having decent results with hash in a TM2. Using it on session mode, with a rimmed basket lined with cotton bacon and filled with hash, gives some decent clouds - but more of a sip than a rip. Using similar temps to flower (perhaps a little higher), it takes a few draws to get going and you can then boost it by holding the button in for a few secs. I get around 10-12 mins of this before it starts getting too hot (but I'm usually high as a kite - and coughing - by that point).
Had some good results with hash using the TM2 via a glass bong too, but you need some adapter pieces for that.

Using it on session mode, with a rimmed basket lined with cotton bacon and filled with hash, gives some decent clouds - but more of a sip than a rip. Using similar temps to flower (perhaps a little higher), it takes a few draws to get going and you can then boost it by holding the button in for a few secs. I get around 10-12 mins of this before it starts getting too hot (but I'm usually high as a kite - and coughing - by that point).

Great adviceš
Itās really hard to get any dry herb vape thatās brilliant with hash, although the softer the hash the better the experience I have found. A coiled snake of hash on a bed of cotton bacon in a dosing capsule in the Mighty at 200c is the best I have found for a battery vape.

Thanks for the tips mate, really appreciate everyone's advice. Got one of those stems added to my basket. š
It comes down to how you smoke. The tinymight as others have pointed out is a ripper. Bong like.
The venty, I haven't tried, but I have had a crafty+ & mighty+ and the TM2.
The crafty is a cracking session sipper, I sold my mighty and modded my crafty for removable batteries. I use the crafty and my Vestratto Anvil more than the TM2.
Tm2 gets cracked out when I have people round to smoke. It's great for that setting and with preloaded capsules I can get the whole group toasted in a mater of minutes š

I love my Venty but itās as fragile as fuck and I handle it with kid gloves! Just knocking it over from standing position can brick it with an EO4 readoutā¦

Cheers mate, judging by the way people seem to go once they start down this road I have no doubt that I will probably end up buying a venty aswell. I want the tinymight because of the on demand side of it. I like the idea of being able to put it down and come back to it. Also the glass mouth piece is more appealing to me than the plastic.š
IMO, the TM2 is terrible to āput down and come back toā. It really doesnāt work that way- itās a ripper not a sipperā¦.
Itās good but I wouldn't use HHC as itās hemp then they take to a factory and add other substances to make it what it is and give you the stone > itās very much manufactured HHC in a lab š§Ŗ ā¦short term Mabie long term defiantly not ā¦I tried in Aya Napa last year as I couldnāt get any THC very strong stuff especially if you get the %100 HHC carts š§ thatās what I know about HHC from personal experienceā¦the stuff hits quick

i need a weed vape that wont drive me crazy
i love my mighty but i hate filling it, cleaning it though ill most gladly suck on it. is there anything that serves a fat fingered slob with german quality?
The oven shouldn't take much cleaning and you can always use a loading tool and/or dosing capsules. The pain is the cooling unit- try ditching it completely in favour of a glass XL Rocket stem with pearls. You will never look back- and you never have to take it apart. You just pour in a little ISO and shake it to clean every few weeks. Lovely for lazy bastards like me!
Thanks Polly, and all who contributed on this thread. Iāve been enjoying the rocket stem on my mighty for the last few days. It is indeed a game changer, flavour is better and is much easier to clean. Legends.
Hot damn, thatās going on the VAS list! No more crusty cooling unit cleaning for me! Thanks Polly.
Does this contraption still make it legal do you know? Might get one but Iām on it all day every day and usually out and about
Legal?
Well, yes if you have a prescription- you are only allowed to use scrip weed with a dry herb vape like this.
And you can legally vape herbs that arenāt weed!

Yeah I have a prescription, I was asking if this contraption on your vape still covers it as the only medically approved vape or if it changes the ālawā so to speak
Nah, this is literally just a stem conversion- you can use any stem you want. You would need to be combusting for a scrip to lose its legal status. The heating on the device is working just the same.
Be aware though that these are very fragile glass stems and that would be risky when out and aboutā¦š«£

Ended up ordering one! Not sure if yours has a silicone bottom? Not sure if thereās a reason but thatās the only thing that bothers me because I can bend it out. Really good hit off it though eh? Like taking a rip from a bong! Think I need to smoke its ānewātaste away before I get some raw terps but happy with it! Good recommendation
Looks interesting Polly, but I can't seem to find anywhere in UK to buy one (all sold out).
Here you go buddy-

arizer air max, not in mighty league but very easy to live with . Super quick load and easy cleaning of glass tubes. More of sipper unless you modify tubes and not quite as good as desktop but overall very decent experience
thanks for the tip my bigga, very happy with your rec, its 10x easier to load and clean than the mighty
These https://www.storz-bickel.com/en/dosing-capsule-set-40
Mighty is one of the best there is, and cleaning it is just something you gotta do, but those caps make it cleaner.

The tiny-might could not be easier to clean such a simple device the only problem I find is the casing heats up very quickly > the tiny might packs a punch š„ with clouds and I find a good stir after a couple of puffs gets better results too > if you can purchase one you wonāt regret it as pollypuff mentions good for a lazy day or 2 or just on the move > one more thing if you do decide to buy one stay away from the new glass Charlie stem @ Ā£40 a stem they break easily if dropped iv had 2 so will defo avoid them in the future keep the original small stem or go XL rocket stem > thatās on the list next

Tinnitus relief
Hey guys, I'm hoping someone can help!!!
I got an ear infection a week ago and was given antibiotics, I've just finished the course and have developed tinnitus. It's driving me mad as I can't sleep. I've been smoking loads at night trying to get some sleep but it's not working. I was hoping one of you legends could help with some adivce on what to do??
Thanks in advance doobiee

Tinnitus sufferer here as well. Get migraines to boot so almost a full house!
Luckily the migraines are rare but they can be severely debilitating.
The tinnitus I get because I used to DJ in clubs/raves/gigs back in the day.
Mine comes and goes and can be non existent or really loud.
Smoking can make the sound worse but it helps in a weird way.
I play ambient music on ear buds helps.
Thatās the only tip I have. Donāt take anything else for it eitherā¦.

I suffered with it for years until I was prescribed meds to address an inflammatory condition, which had the added benefit of completely stopping my tinnitus.
I found out later that a lot of the meds prescribed for my condition dampen sympathetic nervous system responses, so in theory any of the meds I've been on would have had the same effect, but they started me on sertraline which is what stopped it. The others were gabapentin, pregabalin, and amitriptyline. Worth a try if you can get any.

Had it for about 10 years from boxing when burst ear drum, since then iāve had to stop smoking skunk and strong hashes as they increase tinnitus to much, Can now only smoke weaker Thai and hashes also use magnesium as staying calm helps to lower the noise.
Try playing rain sounds or white/brown noise when you go to bed, doesnāt have to be loud but it can take your concentration away from the tinnitus, thatās always the key Iāve found.
Also agree that getting totally mashed helps as well!!!

I must admit most cannabis makes my tinnitus symptoms worse but I have to weigh that up against it helping with sleep.
White noise really helps either through ear buds or background through a speaker.
CBT through the GP can help, you can't change the noise but can alter how you think about it.
I usually go for an indica live resin cart, mainly because I enjoy getting stoned rather than to help with tinnitus.

I'd presume live stream picking and announcing winner, maybe have numbers between 1-500 or something and use a RNG on google to decide

What's the deal with no buying history?
What's the deal with no buying history?
Didn't really notice before but this is something been bugging me since started selling here. Some biggas got their buy history visible on their page but others are not yet they posting about trying so so product etc. I wonder why this is the case? Are the accounts claiming buys with no history just bots/scam? or is there a rule or setting to hae this info visible on ones profile?
You can see that information only when they buy from you, or you interact via PM. It does exist, but it's only visible to certain people with conditions.

US import sellers
Been fancying some posh import stuff from sellers like SN2D but slightly skittish about the international delivery. Do people commonly have problems or does it tend to run smoothly? Is it worth the risk or should I just stick to the primo uk based sellers?
SND2 has a fabulous track record but carts seem to fly under the radar quite smoothly.
You have to accept that you are setting yourself up with a degree of greater risk, longer waits and often increased delivery charges.
Itās whether you have the appetite for that- you are still protected by escrowā¦

LSD/ Mushroom mash up
Sorry to bug you guys again so soon, but I really want to know about this quite quickly. I've heard that this mix is amazing, but some conflicting information - that it's a bit of a no, no. Candy flipping is obviously a thing and I've seen mention of 'jedi flipping', which I understand is lucy, shrooms and ecstasy, but nothing on Lucy/ shroom hybrid tripping. I find that in therapeutic terms mushrooms help bring old, forgotten but really significant stuff to consciousness that's finally ready to be processed, but Lucy helps me figure things out and think better. I was hoping to possibly get both benefits by mixing the two during assisted therapy. Does anyone have any experience or thoughts? I was wondering if one substance would do something weird to the other..how synergistic they might be together.., if one might potentiate the other..Best ratio of one thing to the other, stuff like that.
Ideally i would like the combined strength of the trip to be the equivalent of 180 ųg of Lucy or about 3.5- 4g of dried mushrooms. Thank you , thank you šš

Hey thatās a great question, Iāve never mixed the 2 before, however I have candy flipped with a small dose of Lucy but that was purely recreational rather than for any therapeutic reason. I hadnāt heard of jedi flipping until i read this post but itās an interesting idea to add psilocybin into candy flipping.
With shrooms and lucy, theyāre both serotonin binders so iām assuming taking both together would mute the effects of each, but iāve got no anecdotal evidence, itās just an educated guess. Taking multiple serotonergics could potentially be dangerous and lead to serotonin syndrome but i think thatās more for things like combining ecstasy and ssriās, that releases a lot more serotonin.
With doses and ratios, I donāt have a scooby iām afraid.
Again everything above is just guess work though so take it with a pinch of salt. Hopefully another bigga can help more and give some dosing guidelines.
Have you tried messaging any of the shroom or lucy vendors? As they might have tried mixing both or know people who have or maybe even had the same question in the past from other biggaz. Hope some of this helps š

Id love to know the answer to this too, a combo of the two is called Soul Bombing and there's really only anecdotal evidence out there that i can find about methods and effects, seems like good advice might be to go steady with the doseage on the first one, hopefully there is a psychonaut among us here on LB that has first hand experience that can help!!
Do it!
I love mixing shrooms and lsd, weāve always called it hippy flipping, with or without weed. Maybe a few light beers (I donāt drink anymore, but a good beer when your just being amazed by the world is glorious)
Many people wax lyrical about the differences between lsd and shrooms, Iām not sure I could point any differences out, apart from the duration of the trip. I think shrooms make me happier with a bit of after glow for a few weeks afterwards.
Last time I did this I started with a 250ug tab then reupped later with a150ug followed by another 150ug. Over maybe 12 hours. All during this eating a few shrooms every couple of hours. Ending on probably around 15g of shrooms. This part was the exception rather than the rule.
I have more experience using shrooms to just release emotional stuffs. But not a mix of the 2 for the same, only recreational use of the combination.
Depending on the strength of your shrooms and how you like to feel. For me 4g is quite a bit in one go, not a social dose more a chill in need, or on couch or in bath, I canāt do anything massively productive, but great for catharsis.
I think 180ug is great for just chilling.
If you have 180ug of lsd, sand 4g of shrooms. Iād suggest taking the lsd (maybe smoke a tiny bit of weed if youāre having anxiety)
Then when youāre feeling settled in the trip, after say 1 to 2 hours start thinking about taking a bit of shrooms. If youāre after major catharsis, chomp em all, if not maybe do 1 to 2 g then give it 2 or so hours before deciding if you want more shrooms.
Ps have smokables and shrooms proportioned or treasured before you start. Iāve spilt and lost so many things when fiddling while high.
Good luck. Let us know hours or goes

I was thinking about this yesterday, but with micro-dosing as opposed to tripping.
Is it possible to alternate between shrooms and lsd, in such a way that you negate most of the tolerance build up, whilst maintaining the medicinal benefits from both. Thatās a question I intend to answer.
Just need the shrooms and lsd now lol.

Something I'd wondered myself ShaunyBoy, and what I understand after researching and asking on here is that, because it's the same receptor things that get used ( I can't elaborate on that any better I'm afraid), but basically to all intents a purposes the two substances are the same in some kind of way that means you couldn't do Lucy on your shroom days off and vice versa.
Clever people go into it in more detail in my post on - shrooms, lsd, meds. Lots of helpful info on there :) People mention amanita ( don't know how to spell it ), but apparently that's another option for microdosing. I do, unfortunately, think you need to take two days off between any psychedelic microdosing. I believe they used the words 'cross tolerance '. But this is just what I have learnt. Best of luck with it :) š„š¦

Ah I figured that would be the case when I heard they use the same receptor. Itās a pity, but perhaps itās still possible to alternate them for different medicinal effects? Iāll give your post a look.
And yes mate - Fly Agaric (Amanita muscaria) - the Super Mario mushroom. Supposedly if taken correctly, itās a powerful nootropic.

Spending too much $$$ on a grinder?
I wanna treat myself to something nice. My bog standard Ā£10 Amazon grinder is fine I guess, but could be better.
I am currently eyeing up the Brilliant Cut Grinder, but am leaning away as I CBA to wait 2 months for it to ship from Canada. Also, I like to keep my crappier weed in the kief collector bit, and BCGs are only 3 pieces. Am also looking at the Santa Cruz Shredder, which seems highly rated.
Money isn't too much of an object, however, if a Ā£40 grinder is just as good as a Ā£100 one, obvs. would prefer to spend less. I mostly DHV (Crafty+), if that matters. Thanks!

My one constantly needs me to manually poke small bits of weed through the holes, lol. It does get the weed nice and fluffy though - which is what I hear SC is great for.

Hi DR, been looking at the new standard flower mill on RVS for Ā£30 which has the "medium" plate, I believe. Do you use different plates on the premium or just stick to one? Any plates better than others (for general vaping)?
I'm attracted to the simplistic nature of the Standard but wondered if having only the medium plate would limit my experience? I'm using Dynavap/Tiny Might style vapes. (oh and the best ever in the whole world, Solo2... fishing rod extended... š)
Cheers :)

I pretty much only use the medium plates I have played around with the plates and find that medium works best for 90% of my stuff
Get one of the BCG factory seconds. I can't spot a blemish on mine.
They're in stock and took about 10 days to the UK and I think there's still 15% off promo running. Best purchase I've made.
Get the medium plate. If you want a finer grind, grind upside down for a few rotations then flip it back up the right way.

I'm really happy with the stainless steel Herb Ripper I bought around a year ago. Had to soak it in iso once to get all of the left on weed hash and bits off it, and my mate genuinely thought I'd bought a new one. Not at those prices! Bought a fine grinding plate for it too, which I think should probably be the standard plate, but that's no doubt why it's separate and a costly add-on. Hopefully it'll last a lifetime.

Smoking weed in a flat

Smoking weed in a flat
Ok Iāll try and cut a long story short. Iāve been living in a semi detached house for about 6 years. Iām a daily smoker, Iām disabled and I have been using weed to manage my pain for about the past ten years. I have never had an issue with any neighbours complaining or anything like that. Recently my landlord sold my house and I was served an eviction notice and due to my disability the council agreed to house me and got me a flat in my local area. I have never lived in a flat before and Iām quite worried about the neighbours complaining about me smoking weed. ( they are mostly elderly and disabled people) my local housing authority that has housed me has a zero tolerance policy about any drug use and I really donāt want any complaints against me. I have switched to vapes for the time being to reduce the smell. but I really prefer joints and it doesnāt feel the same to me. I usually smoke just pure flower joints. Does anyone have any recommendations or suggestions? Am I just being paranoid? Any advice is welcome thank you biggas ā¤ļø
I had the same problem mate. I tried a prescription but the costs were ridiculous and i cancelled after a couple of months
that being said it did provide documentation stating i was legally permitted to use cannabis.
I sent the details to tower hamlets housing, and actually just told my neighbours i had a prescription, and just never told them when i cancelled it.
If youāre proactive about it thereās little they can do.
I still smoke a bong in the flat from time to time, but mostly use a dry herb vape with the window open and there are no issues with smell.
Best of luck! Remember the system is wrong, not you!

Hello there,
If it hasn't been mentioned already, try to get a script. There are plenty of places about that would help you, generally for a Ā£50 or so consultation fee. They will assess your need, these weed places have their own doctors so it will probs be a video call. If you get accepted, buy some weed off them so you get a bag with a prescription stuck to it... Then I guess you refil the bag with whatever you want. One place that springs to mind is curaleaf

Get a filter that sucks up all the air in the room and an outlet pipe which connects or hangs off your window so the air that gets sucked from the inside get pulls straight out the gaff!
Your welcome
Your welcome
Hi, apologies if this is an old post. I'm in a similar situation.
A few months back I bought a purifier listed on Amazon as 'PureMate Smart Air Purifier with Ioniser mode, Air Quality Monitor, Display Off, Air Filter', cost about Ā£120 with extra filters being Ā£25ish, I think. That made a big difference though it's already not as good as it was when I first had it - it maybe just needs a new filter (or the old one hoovering!) There are smaller, cheaper versions but I can't comment on how good they are. I got one after seeing a similar post from bigga BBDoom. You probably don't need one with the ioniser or UV light, etc, they don't seem to make much difference? It makes a big difference to have it running while smoking but it's definitely not as 'quiet' as advertised - it also helps (to a lesser extent) if you just run it for a couple of hours after you've gone to bed.
Another thing that might help is to get yourself a good oil diffuser and have a few drops of oil in it that'll help mask the smell - PurEssential makes an oil that helps with smoke odours, and there are similar room sprays that supposedly do the same thing. Lots of stuff online about different diffuser oils that can help to hide smoke smells, etc. In my experience, people notice how 'nice' the room smells rather than anything else šš. We've come a long way from burning some stinky incense (often bad for your breathing) and thinking it does anything other than obviously highlighting that you're trying to cover up a weed smell! Ahhh, the ignorance of my teenage youth! š
I've also seen some good smell-proof bags recently (but can't remember what they're called), everything from pencil case to rucksack size - available from Amazon (though I'd caution about having weed-related items in your Amazon history). They'll help reduce the smell if you can be arsed to keep taking everything in and out of it.
Finally, regardless of how 'clear' you think your room smells, get a non-smoking friend in to give you their opinion! You just don't notice the smell as much in your own home if you're constantly around it.
Please let us know if you find something that works well for you. Good luck! š

Diffusers whilst smoking will really mess up the air quality, you will have bud smell mixed with lovely oils which will really stench up a place. Your best bet is the filter which sucks the air with the duct connected to your window as the outlet(air output)ā¦ Do this and thank me later!
Yep, I didn't mean smoking whilst the diffuser's running - I run the purifier whilst (or after) smoking, and run the diffuser when not smoking (overnight or in the morning). Thanks for the clarification PE š. I'm interested in a filter ducting out the window but, when I see that, I always assume there's a grow happening, and I'd be worried that others would think the same.
If people have a similar setup for non-weed reasons, what is it actually for (ie what would you say it's for if someone asked)? I'd be very interested in this if I could see a setup that didn't look dodgy - is there anything you can link to I can have a look at? Appreciated, cheers š

A fan and filter setup would work best. You can sit it on a table and use it without ducting if need be, on a recycle mode if you will. Any smoke/air going through will get treated. Added bonus, all smoke/air will gravitate towards the filter, so none escapes out the door.
Thanks for replying, Harry š. Do you know if there's anything good that runs quietly? If you can recommend anything or link to something I'd really appreciate it. Cheers š
Look up carbon filters its just the same fan and filter you use in a grow,id suggest rhino carbon.filter there good and diff sizes,the smell sticks to the carbon and they do work mate
Cheers James š Others have recommended Rhino products too. They're a bit pricey for me atm but it looks like they're the way to go. Thanks š
Not an expert on this subject but I would suggest getting a medical prescription, not for the access to flower etc but more just as some form of protection from draconian council policies. Looks quite bad on them evicting someone who has a legitimate medical reason to use
There are things you can try but nothing smells more than a joint unfortunately. You could try a sploofy, or get a fan and cover it with those scented dry cleaner sheets, or a combo. Better yet might be to consider using you favourite weed in some brownies. But I agree with nesto that if you have some kind of medical note/ prescription that might cover you. Otherwise pray for windy rainy nights where you can smoke it out of your window. I moved to vaping a while back, ULC and dr Terpy are good for distillate, and people who vape swear by live resin vapes, they cost a little more but the high on those is supposedly closer to a joint high, try sensi-mart for that perhaps, people love their live resin stuff. One day I will try this myself no doubt
In my experience, if you're smoking inside regularly somebody is bound to complain sooner or later. You'd be better off switching to dry herb vaping, what one did you buy? I could never get into it until I bought a high-end vape, took a week or so to get used to it but since then I haven't smoked in years. Far, far stealthier.
As others have said. Best solution is what growers do and suck the air through a carbon filter.
Rhino make great filters. Youāll need a fan and filter that can handle the volume of air in the room.

carbon filter and fan , you can get fans that are voltage controlled so it will be more quiet, i run a mini 6inch in my smoke room, was better with the larger one but next door is a weed farm so i can slack off
Plug in ozone generator left on timer near front door is a great last line of protection. Yes,I know they arenāt great for your health,but so is being homeless.
Iām suprised how few people are aware of these bits of kit.
You can even get them for your car.
They are super effective and start at Ā£20.

I used to be in a very similar situation.
I bought an air purifyer and an activated carbon air filter, about Ā£150 all in.
I can smoke a joint in my living room with both of these on and the smell is gone in half an hour and nobody outside knows any better

Moving it stressful as balls, so we completely understand where you are coming from. In my experience, so long as you aren't a neighbour from hell, most people probably won't care. I live in a shitty flat, and you are very much at the mercy of your immediate neighbours. You might find a single-dweller (who doesn't generally disturb the peace) gets a lot of leeway.
Besides, even if they did complain, the council likely has better things to worry about. I'm not saying the risk isn't there, but moreso that the gaps between 'neighbour disapproves', 'neighbour complains', and 'you get turfed out' are bigger than they seem.
The one thing that might tick them off is if you stink out the place. So, as already said here, odor absorbers/removers could give you some peace of mind.

So, smell reduction. Maybe block the bottom of the external flat door, and also the door of the room you smoke in to prevent random diffusion.
Currently I'm using a Levoit Core 300S air purifier and that thing is being worked ludicrously hard. Seems to work at minimising odor along with copious sprays of Febreeze (those cans don't last long!), but there's still a residual smell that you'd have to sort out if people who didn't like that smell called over.
The company that Chasin'Orange mentioned but couldn't remember is Stashic. Also available from them, and from other retailers than the ubiquitous one. The rucksack is very roomy, but I haven't tested it in the wild for its odor dampening qualities.

'Stashic' is the company I meant, thank you MightyRux š. I did also see versions without their logo on it that looked exactly the same so, with the Stashic, you might just be paying extra for their logo, I don't know. And I totally agree RE blocking the bottom of doors š.

Shroom noob - how to start?
Shroom noob - how to start?
So I have taken shrooms once before, years ago with friends and I think these were dried liberty caps, but cannot be sure. I really enjoyed them and want to have another go but donāt know where to start.
Can anyone help me out here, what shrooms do I need to be looking for? Thereās many on here and Iām not sure whatās for me.
Thanksš

My two favourite methods I would say suggest are:
Buying ground shrooms in caps so that you can measure exactly how much you take. My recommendation would be 0.5/1g to start with.
Other method is blend up dried whole shroom in a smoothie, I like mango, blueberry and strawberry with orange and lemon juice to help them activate quicker
As far as taking them goes, I always try to not have any large amounts of caffeine or thc in my system and set aside a good few hours.
I meditate and think about my intention for the trip, even if that's just to have fun and let go. I also tend to take shrooms on an empty stomach.
Take the whole amount you want at once, splitting a dose into multiple servings can really mess up the phases of intensity.
Make sure you are in a safe and comfortable place, preferably with somebody who isn't tripping.
Just let the mushrooms do their thing, there are no bad trips, just whatever the mushrooms want to show or not show you. I find mushrooms come in waves so if you think you trip is ending just stay aware for a while longer, don't end up in Aldi on the tail end of a trip like I have š
Strain wise I love B+, very rare to get a challenging trip, not super heavy either. McKenna are good all round, JMF if you feel a little more adventurous.
Don't listen to people telling you to just mash down 5gs, that's the sort of advice that ends up putting people off for life
As I do reviews I don't want to recommend any specific vendors.

I like the idea of blended up into a smoothie as the taste was not for me at all. Although it was made into a tea so I wasnāt exactly expecting it to taste good either.
Thanks again!

Liberty caps are wild outdoors. completely different to mutated cultivated spores these days can produce. Libs should be picked and given for free, never sold.
Mckenna seems a good strain

I've seen this picked never sold thing a few times now. Why for liberty caps and not other cultivars? Is this an As Above So Below thing that others are aware of and not myself?
I called MadDabber out for shilling his own products in this post that I've linked and it looks like he's been taken off the wonderwall for the time being. Not sure what to make of that but hopefully he's being punished for it as he uses all the accounts for malicious purposes.

Liberty caps pop up on occasion, well worth waiting for, totally different league.
All the cubensis strains here will do the job, just look for sellers with good reviews.

does very heavy onset in proportion to the high correlate with dodgy ingredients in a mushroom chocolate bar?
Opt for a lower dose rather than higher. It wasn't too awful, but my first go on magic mushrooms turned into a bad trip halfway through. Having it wear off sooner rather than later was an absolute godsend, haha.

just super curious, i take Lamotrigine (mood stabiliser) and have found iām now never able to get actually stoned/mind altered or giggly, just a bit sleepy and i canāt lie itās a bummer š anyone else?
I take amphetamines most days. I still get much more of a relaxed high over a buzzy one though. Mixing in a little booze usually helps the creative thoughts going.

Distillate question
by
No_regrats
Distillate question
Do different distillates do different things, like when it's advertised as hybrid, indicia, satitva? I thought distillate was just the pure high effect?
Distillate is pretty much pure thc so it is not indica or sativa. Many people debate if indica or sativa strains are even a real thing and what metrics would even be used to determine if a strain is sativa or indica. Your better off picking a strain you like instead of choosing something based on it being indica or sativa because you could have two different sativa strains that have completely different effects. A strain profile is made up of mainly cannabinoids and terpenes, theoretically if you had two concentrates that have the exact same ratio of cannabinoids and terpenes they should both have the same or at least similar effect and taste/smell. Distillate only contains 1 cannabinoid which is THC terpenes are added to the distillate to give it the taste and smell of the strain and some people claim terpenes also effect the high but you will never have an exact replica of the strain using just distillate and terpenes as your missing many of the other cannabinoids that make up the strain. Live resin on the other hand is full spectrum so it contains THC as well as many other cannabinoids like CBD CBN etc. live resin also contains the natural terpenes found in the bud. Every live resin strain will contain a different amount of cannabinoids and terpenes so they should all give you a different high and taste. I hope that helped you a bit mate. Thereās also other things to take into consideration like the type of extractions used to remove the cannabinoids or terpenes from the buds, but itās a bit too complex to explain in a short post
It's more so to do with you're choice of strain, if you're an indica person , sativa etc.
basically same effects with all distillate.
basically same effects with all distillate.
so it realistically makes no difference which distillate strain you pick in terms of effects, what about 50/50 live resin carts / 100% live resin?
I totally disagree.
Buy a Mimosa disty & a Unicorn š¦ Piss disty from Canadian Imports and tell me those effects are the same. Nooooo Way Jose! š¤

The only distillate I have had that has ever been different is from Canadian Imports. They used to stock full weed flower distillate, not the stuff that has been converted from CBD isolate.

Are you male or female? There are some wonderful natural supplements which actually contain Siberian ginseng as one of their 5 ingredients, they are specifically targeted at women but men can take them as well, they balance hormones mainly and youād be surprised how many things they help with.
It\s not primarily aimed at women ask any Hollistic or alt doctor. . They balance your whole system not just hormones. .
According to studies, Siberian Ginseng for men may also help increase testosterone levels, and enhance physical and mental health (AKA stops depression. happy pills) Use that and creatine in snalll doses for health look into creatine for depression and over all mens health and u will never need a ssri ever again my friend
Medis just aim it at woman . not in generally aimed at females.

sorry to hear this, its a tough transition with potentially sever consequences. are you reducing gradually?
Hey. Recently stopped sertraline myself - turned me into a zombie. I got the withdrawal brain zaps - first few weeks is horrible, with the emotional control of a toddler but after about a month, I felt more in control and less zappy.
Ngl I smoked my way through the withdrawal, probably not what a GP would recommend š - definitely helped, got a big ol bag of my fave stinky stardawg, put on all my favourite films and easy comfort food, battened down the hatches through that turmoil feeling. Warned my work mates that I might be more blunt than normal cos of it lol. Took some days off work when it was really bad. Worst of it was definitely the first month then felt noticeably more myself again.
Probs about 2 months after I feel normalish (whatever the fuck that is!) and less zombie like. I guess the length of withdrawal depends on the person and how long you been taking em for. The best advice I have been given in this subject is please be kind to yourself and be patient with yourself, you are undergoing some changes to brain chemistry - aināt no escaping that. But it will pass. Good luck pal, fingers and toes crossed for ya

Glad to hear someone else coming off! Iām currently coming off Effexor and itās been hellish. Iāve been using a lot of Indica and also literally allocating a ānap timeā like a toddler just to lie down in the dark for 30-40 minutes with no stimuli - really helped. Vitamin D as well as Omega 3, Magnesium L-Threonate and B-12 every day reaaaally makes a difference. š¤
Evil stuff, friend of mine was given it by a doctor. Ruined him as a human, he has no emotion to anything his life is collapsing around him and he doesn't care.

Vaping tips you wish you'd realized sooner?

Vaping tips you wish you'd realized sooner?
I wanna hear your dry herb vaping tips. Mine are -
1. Don't put the mouth piece into the side of your mouth like a joint, put it in the middle (like a straw). Took ages to unlearn that habit.
2. I would constantly grind up too much/not enough. You can use dosing capsules to measure out weed before grinding.
3. Give the dosing capsule a quick stir before vaping: If stuff falls out, then it is likely overpacked and won't vape well. To fix, pack the remainder to the level you want, before (carefully!) adding more back in.
#3 solved the mystery of why the same bud would vape really differently, lol.

Abv is totally worth saving.
Itās already decarbed, just save a cup then throw it in a rice cooker with a pack of butter or coconut oil for a couple of hours, then use it to make edibles- something with spices will help with flavour. Total knockout treats from something otherwise destined for the bin.

Always invest in custom stems. Total game changer compared to the crap OG that come with the likes of the TM2 and Mightyā¦
Do you by any chance own a mighty?
My vaping tips are what works for one doesn't always work for another and that comparing temperatures across device styles/manufacturers is a waste of time
š¤ Probably not so much a tip mind ...
Different styles of vapes will have different extraction signatures and be capable of different loads. A bong smoker smoker might find a session vape too slow to release the goodies and not enough whammy, where are someone who threatens a joint from the other side of the room with a few leaves shouldn't end up on a desktop one hit wonder setup... Well not unless they want to lose a few hours and consume their own body weight in munchies

Loads of really good advice. But seriusly you could lose your home and the council refuse. Yes getting a pescrpition is expensensive, absolutly yes should it be easy etc but I will remind you there rules. At the moment dociety says let them be if they have a perscrption - so best get one. Then if the sht hits the fan you have a arguement. It think it will cost you but not have a home will cost years of your life.
It is shit but until there is some progression in our law it is what it is.
In the smell side some weed varities smell is easir to mask. Nobody ever turns when I am smoking blueberry or mimosa

Dealing With Insomnia
May be a long shot but figured I'd ask here anyway...
Any biggas know ways to manage or deal with insomnia without the use of sleeping tablets or weed?
I primarily rely on weed to help me get a decent night's sleep but currently don't have any and my insomnia is acting up again. Only getting 3-4 hours of restless sleep on average after staying awake 36+ hours at a time most days. I'm finding it hard to focus on things and just generally groggy altogether, which in turn is making me irritable.
Trying to find some alternative solutions for times like now when weed isn't an option.. I'm also not wanting to rely on weed as heavily to sleep.
Thanks :)

Getting on the Unicorn train - which vape is best to pair with it?
As I continue my journey experimenting with distillates and live resin, the noise around the mighty unicorn is unreal so have to try it.
Iāve only ever used disposables before, can I get some recommendations on what device I should be using?
I prefer to buy quality so I donāt need to re-buy but not necessarily premium for the sake of it.
Any help appreciated!

crypto issues...
my crypto exchange 'paybis' isn't working atm due to UK compliance. Paypal also suspended. Tried to get on coinjar but they've blocked my payment and are asking lots of questions about the transaction. Like what are the goods? Anybody know anything about this...?
What do you mean by not working? I had an issue starting this weekend of not being able to buy crypto from them into my Paybis wallet - that option was disabled. Got round it by buying on kraken and transferring into Paybis. No problems transferring from Paybis wallet to Transaxe.
don't worry too much ... it's a crypto issue and not u ... same with me .. I was paybis until changes... I use moonpay now very easy, similar to paybis and LB friendly... g/luck

Cannabis survival kit for SNRI withdrawals?
Iāve been on SSRIs for 10 years, recently just did an 8 month stint on Effexor/Venlafaxine which gave me psychosis and iām finally now off completely and the withdrawal syndrome is baaaaad. Mentally iām doing really good, but feels like my body is rotting from the inside out every time i move. I make a pretty strong RSO tea at night and avoiding sativa, but do you have any recommendations for STRONG body highs or sedating effects as physically itās like i have snakes in my limbs. Thanks in advance all :)
Chat to Druids Magic about their imminent harvest.
The Sleepy Joe is wonderfully sedating and the Umme will take all your cares away. You can read about them on the Anesia Seeds websiteā¦

Skywalker gives me a really nice body high. Just make sure you've eaten 20 minutes unless you don't mind the munchies š
Good shout, I have enjoyed the skywalker iāve tried š Do you have any you recommend from here?
Any strain that is from the Blueberry family does this trick for me, really helps me relax and just zaps any tension or worry away. My fav strain from the family is Blueberry Muffin, tastes how it sounds and has such a nice high.

Easy app for sending bitcoin
Probably a question that gets asked a lot but what is an app I can easily set up to send bitcoin. I have a few buys because I have done it in other ways before but I would just like a simple solution because with most of these apps it doesn't let me send anything even when I verify my Id.
It probably makes a difference what country you're in? I'm in the UK and have the Blockchain app. I found it the easiest to set up, you need the usual photo id, but you can have your wallet on the app as well as buy bitcoin, and then send it, all from the same app. I've found it really simple and straightforward to use. I'd never used bitcoin before setting up my account a few weeks ago, and have successfully used it to make 5 purchases on here since.
Yeah I ended up going for that one purely because it was instant verication and yeah very straightforward in general. I can't wrap my head around most of this crypto language
coincorner - send them a passport or driving licence - no KYC i am using these from now on.
can also deposit direct from your bank account and send payments direct to lb when ordering.

Now that could be advenutre! I struggle to begin with how you'd infuse it. The rub maybe?
Yeah just classic hard boiled sweets. Mints, pear drops that kind of thing.
Iāve had issues with some gummies get a little gooey when left somewhere warm.
Also itād be nice if they were individually wrapped and made with Rso for that full entourage effect

I want something that has the same effect as the Mr Moxie mints that I can get in the US. Seems like mostly sativa but doesnāt wig me out as much as a pure sativa tincture does
What is the diffrence between shatter infused eddibles vs RSO eddibles. Dose one have a different effect then the other. Apologies for the dumb question but I am a noob on eddibles and just starting out on them with 10mg.
It essentially comes down to how they are turned into concentrate form.
Shatter is made with Butane, removing a lot of the terpenes and cannabinoids, giving a more potent THC concentrate than RSO.
RSO is made using alcohol to reduce it, but it retains more of the others, giving what you'll see people calling a "Full Spectrum High".
RSO being a concentrate is still very high in THC, around 60%. Shatter is around 80%.

Adding D9 distillate to the question. Which would you say has an all round better high. I see a lot of eddible gummies on here which are infused with shatter.

Shroom ID
Hi all,
I need your help - I got sent some shrooms today which were supposed to be APE but aren't. Seller isn't sure what they sent, so I need help in IDing these. Can anyone help? I'm guessing either golden teachers or trinity caps.
Thank you š

Could be Ape Reverts (more stable than apes). Could also be almost any other cube. Growing conditions affect the look way more than strain.

Send photo using chat
Is there any way to attach a photo when sending/replying to a āchatā? And I donāt mean within a topic, I know you can do that. I mean a PM?
Like tomlittle said I dont think you can because it would be open to abuse but you could maybe update a recent review and add the pic there for whoever to see, then remove it afteršš»
I think it's not possible as you could send all sorts of things in a picture PM'd. E.g. a picture of the address of an off site shop.
Interesting. I can imagine anything like that on the topic wall would be flagged by the borgs. However, Iām under the impression borgs can also see our PMās otherwise anybody could privately talk about ***** (insert any illegal activity)?
I just want to send a vendor a picture rather than post it on the open topics.
I just want to send a vendor a picture rather than post it on the open topics.
I had the same issue a fair while ago and needed to send a vendor a pic of what i'd received that was short. Ended up being resolved anyway without the picture.
It's easy to scan all the text in PMs before they're sent for keywords to flag, but images are harder. Although AI is now able to read a lot of text in images.
You could make it your profile picture for a small time while in comms with the vendor?

Mate I would not risk it in Dubai. Seriously if you can't go without don't go. They don't mess about with cautions, are highly suspicious and people will grass you up without a second thought. Don't risk decades in jail just for a smoke. Personally I don't go anywhere I can't smoke reasonably safely or a quick bribe won't get you of trouble.
dubai has started to ease out of the cannabis hate. no more jail time, they're justing grabbing it and leaving you alone.
It's PR. The Emirates is a deeply Conservative place. They want to appear more Liberal, but attitudes are religiously linked and remain very hard-line. In Saudi Arabia (different example), women can drive now (but most don't as it's frowned apon). What is reported in the media doesn't reflect reality.
Thing is , you only need to get caught once in SA, to cause irreparable damage to your entire life. Good luck and hope you donāt get caught!
Do not mess about there.. I was in the police prison for 7 day after I fucked up... It cost $90K to pay them off and get my passport back, while i was in the holding police prison there were red jackets that were all looking at 25 year minimum for class A's.
They even had 13-year-old kids in there for having marzipans.
They had this melt from the UK when I was being held who they caught and promised to let go after he helped to capture the rest of his syndicate (a Scouse team) after they finished with him they caught 6 others some just for a ticket and they were all put on the lifers section and he was also told that he was getting life.. The Arabs will promise the earth to get a confession.
They use Israeli spy ware Pegasus that watches for keywords on Whats app etc...
Do not even think about any types of drug taking there šš½

If you order to your condo then you will probably end up in a free government sponsored condo for the rest of your days.
Iām more than happy to take stealthy products (edibles, carts, caps etc) on my hols, but not there buddy. Not in a million yearsā¦.
Sod that!
Try smoking some banana peel if youāre desperate instead, you wonāt get high but at least you wonāt get passed around like a tray of cakes in prison.
You can have your blood and urine tested if they suspect you and failing a test counts as possession and a likely spot of bird!

To reiterate, it seems I'm the only one here who actually did time in Dubai prison for possession with intent to consume. The rules have no changed and there is no more deportation for possession with intent to consume. But if you fuck up in the prosecution and say the stuff wasn't yours or you didn't know , they will charge you with anything from sharing/promotion/selling. Sharing is 5 years. Promotion is 10 years. Selling is 25 years. The quantity of the substance doesn't matter, neither does if it's cannabis or methamphetamine. Cannabis is honestly treated worse than most other drugs.
I did time in 2017 from August to October and I was given a sentence of 3,000 AED fine plus deportation. Trust me guys, getting caught in Dubai with drugs isn't worth it. In case of selling (if you tell at the prosecution that you gave to your friend for 2Ā£, that's selling, you don't need to have 100 sales to be considered a seller) your case moves to the capital city, you will spend anytime from 1 to 2 years to be sentenced during which you get to make one-5 minute call once a week. And for selling the mandatory sentence is 25 years. If you're lucky, you will get out in 9 to 12 years.
I repeat don't order to your address. You cannot feign innocence or say that your friends were playing a prank. For any suspicion of drug use, you will undergo a mandatory drug test (during which you will be put in a room with 20 others in the CID headquarters in Dubai) where you will be treated like shit, slapped, beaten for not answering promptly.

Good Lucyfur77 but I don't think that it's a competition on who has done the most time, just experiences no?
So by reiterating it you mean what?
That you are the Champ Champ of the Dubai prison scene lol
There are so many highly strung people on here that love to cock measure hahaha.

Not at all, all I'm saying is I extensively used the dark net while in Dubai during a time when it was unheard of and also the CIDs there weren't even sure what the substance was when they saw the concentrates, things have changed now. Everybody is tech savvy and know what's what. There maybe high strung people or well endowed bros, but I know Dubai like the back of my hand. I was 31 when I got caught, now 36 and counting.
Just don't. There is no love for Westerners or our drugs in the Emirates. Put your freedom before your smoke.
So many questions arise in my mind from this post..... such as do you like the idea of many years in a middle eastern prison, or have you done any research on the country you are about to visit? All in all a very bad idea. I mean a teacher got put in prison for naming a teddy bear after the prophet Mohammed. They are tolerant of alcohol because they have to be to accommodate a western tourism, but drugs is a go to jail, do not pass go and the FCO won't help you. I've done some smuggling but never to middle east or asian countries. They don't take kindly to it!
DON'T MATE ! I lived there for 31 years (born and raised), got caught with some 2 grams of concentrates, spend 3 months and was deported. I'm one of the lucky ones, I know many who did 5 to 10 years based on their testimony at prosecution. I know a few british guys who are doing 25 years for selling cannabis.
Itās not worth it bro. I am sure chances of being caught are minimal, but trust, just think the impact it would have if you actually got caught (legal costs, family, possibly even from your employer). I recently took an unopened bag of edibles to Spain without an issue, but the stupidity of my actions hit me, ironically, when sitting on my balcony high!
Shhesh. You're brave. I worked there for 3 years. The only thing I dare do out there was a local smoke but it wasn't cannabis. While I was out there an American was arrested a jailed for smoking a joint BEFORE getting on the plane to fly to Dubai. Cannabis in his blood was enough to arrest his for possession.
That would be a crazy idea imo. that part of the world has very strict laws.
If you really really must id check on their law for vaping and have some carts sent
Even then i wouldnt, you can get jailed just for kissing your partner in public lol

Wow I would be really careful. I wouldnāt smoke in the street. I guess itās best to take edibles.
Fredo (rapper) just got 5 years in jail over there for a lil bit of bud, I'd highly avoid the risk brev
Hi. I have lived on and off in the middle east for the last fifteen years - although I used almost every day I was there, I don't recommend it due to the harshness with which drug users are treated generally. I say generally, because I do know an individual who was caught at Abu Dhabi with half a key of coke and after one month in the holding cells and then local prison (with no charges) he was released and 'told' to leave the country immediately (I.e. not deported). With regards to having it sent to your condo - think again because ALL incoming mail to UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Saudi etc. is scanned!

Edibles vs oil caps expiry
Hey. I donāt really smoke as much as I used to these days. My next purchase I was eyeing up 10mg edibles roughly & oil caps. I probably wonāt be tanning them that frequent. I have never had edibles before but I thought I may have read that over time they go bad, especially texture? I am guessing the capsules will last ages? Or am I just better getting myself a disposable vape & use that every now & then?
I think itās the other way around- oil in caps will degrade faster than most edibles. That said, edibles that are fresh products like cake or cookies will go stale. Gummies in my experience last a really long time.
The high from edibles and carts are very different. Edible highs kick in after 30-40 minutes and last for hours (although some people are very resistant to ingested THC). Vape carts are an instant big hit that fades quite quickly.
So itās really a question of on what occasion you plan to get high. Also 10mg gummies are cheap enough that you donāt need to worry about shelf lifeā¦š

Does weed actually make any one feel happy ?
Weird question but I always see cannabis as being used to improve mood, but I havenāt found a strain that makes me feel happy per say. Relaxed and content but not happy.
Maybe Iām setting the bar to high but the only drug ever that has done this are opiate type ones.
Has any one had a strain or type of bud that does this for them
Maybe Iām setting the bar to high but the only drug ever that has done this are opiate type ones.

I have an overactive brain (thanks ADHD!) and weed is great for stopping my thoughts running at 1,000,000 MPH. I wouldn't say it makes me happy per se, but it gives me a much needed mental break from myself, haha.
Although different strains and types can have different effects, cannabis certainly does make me happy. But I do think it also depends on mood, time, place etc as itās not a panacea. I have certain āgo toā products which are pretty reliable even on a really shit day but nothing is 100% guaranteed. All that said, fine tequila makes me happy too! š
I've only just discovered the difference between phenotypes of the same strain. I didn't know that seeds from the same parent will grow into plants that have different effects to their siblings. It's quite disappointing really as I've come across a few strains on here that I've really loved but when I've bought another batch of the same strain the effects have not been the same and has lacked those particular effects that i loved.
This is one of many many reason why there's no such thing as a strain for particular effects, or indica sativa etc for effects, i see people talking about it daily on here and it makes me cringe
it's all a nonsense and the quicker we get away from it the quicker we can progress towards helping medicinal patients
and to the OP, no, the price and hassle associated with attaining and consuming this incredible medicine kinda puts a downer on any joy experienced, also knowing i'm having to go through all this hassle and money to smoke mids while the government profits enormously from being the biggest exporter of medical cannabis in the world, whilst also deeming it illegal for anyone else in the country to do so.

Mimosa, gorilla zkittlez, tropical runtz, gorilla glue, Hindu Kush mate looks a lot but I only get small amounts as I do t use a lot at a time
The only drug I've ever felt true happiness on is mushrooms, but that happiness was from my spirit not from dopamine. I do like weed euphoria though, especially with alcohol
I usually just feel relaxed, but after a T-break I usually get euphoria the next 2-3 times I use it.
You have hit the nail on the head, when I get a new strain itās like a new drug but quickly it all goes into relaxation

Would you rather be stressed or bored?
This is a great question for a canna user.
I found myself in my last job working solely to smoke which is kinda sad and which probably gave me the courage to quit that job.
When you smoke you're gonna suffer stress, and as a canna user without your fav hobby you're likely to get 'bored' (not a word i'm a fan of as we're here on this earth such a short time).
Users that don't get stressed often cause they always have enough are likely to suffer it in other ways like a vendor always watching their back or biggas with a Ā£200 - Ā£400 weekly habit are likely to feel it in their bank balance.
I'd prefer stress to answer the question tho, and it's not gonna be till this country changes it's views dramatically in regards to canna use that this stress will likely subside.
I'm finally gonna make a purchase beginning of week after a big break and am excited for that, a little nervous too i guess.šā¤ļø

I'm glad I'm on the bottom end of the weekly habit list. Makes me feel slightly less stressed!
in my experience boredom typically leads to stress anyway. and being queer is stressful enough despite what other people on this thread seem to think
i was married (to a bird) for years, but after she died i ended up with a boyfriend. having seen both sides, i can confirm that being queer can indeed be quite stressful. it is mostly bigotry that's the cause, but honestly just having two guys in a relationship together is quite a lot of it. i never once felt like punching my wife, but this cunt... ;) p.s. just read all the comments there is some homophobia on here isn't there? stoners all feeling bad about wanking over tranny porn?
Having to wait 3+ years for healthcare whilst the ignorant and the bigoted shit the bed daily over your very existence. I see you friend. Hope you're doing ok <3
thank you friend. gets hard some days but knowing there's people in my corner always helps. you're good people
My job, at times, can be incredibly stressful to the point that I and others have often been close to tears due to the pressure, but it's not possible to stop. Newer people sometimes complain that they have nothing to do at times as they're yet to realise that that's the perk for the times that things are relentless and you spend hours desperate to pee.
So I'll go with bored, as it's probably less likely to take years off my life. Plus, as people have said, you can (almost) always find something to do if you really look.
So I'll go with bored, as it's probably less likely to take years off my life. Plus, as people have said, you can (almost) always find something to do if you really look.
h, the age-old question: Would you rather be stressed or bored? Let's take a humorous approach and explore the amusing side of these two less-than-desirable options.
In the red corner, we have Stress! Stress, the eternal companion that keeps you on your toes and your heart racing like a caffeinated squirrel. It's the feeling of having a thousand tabs open in your mind, all marked as "URGENT." With stress, you get to experience the thrill of constantly juggling deadlines, responsibilities, and expectations. It's like participating in a chaotic dance where your feet keep tripping over your own to-do list. Oh, the adrenaline rush of stress, keeping you awake at night and making your hair stand on end! Who needs sleep, right?
And in the blue corner, we have Boredom! Boredom, the mischievous villain that slowly sucks the life out of every moment, leaving you questioning your existence like a philosophical sloth. With boredom, time stretches out like a never-ending road trip with no entertaining sights or decent snacks. You find yourself staring at the wall, counting the specks of dust, and contemplating the meaning of life while contemplating whether to order takeout for the fourth time this week. Oh, the excitement of boredom, where even the most mundane activities become a welcome distraction from the abyss of nothingness!
Now, let's consider the pros and cons. Stress may provide you with a surge of motivation and urgency, but it also brings sleepless nights, frazzled nerves, and the tendency to resemble a human tornado. Boredom, on the other hand, may seem like a peaceful respite at first, but it can quickly turn your brain into a sluggish blob yearning for stimulation, leaving you contemplating outrageous activities like rearranging your sock drawer by color, size, and fabric composition.
So, which one is the lesser evil? Well, my friend, that's entirely up to you! Both stress and boredom have their unique quirks and challenges. Ultimately, finding a balance between excitement and relaxation is the key. So, when life presents you with the choice of stress or boredom, remember to take a deep breath, find some humor in the situation, and perhaps indulge in a silly dance or a random bout of karaoke to keep your spirits high. After all, laughter is the best stress reliever and boredom buster!
In the red corner, we have Stress! Stress, the eternal companion that keeps you on your toes and your heart racing like a caffeinated squirrel. It's the feeling of having a thousand tabs open in your mind, all marked as "URGENT." With stress, you get to experience the thrill of constantly juggling deadlines, responsibilities, and expectations. It's like participating in a chaotic dance where your feet keep tripping over your own to-do list. Oh, the adrenaline rush of stress, keeping you awake at night and making your hair stand on end! Who needs sleep, right?
And in the blue corner, we have Boredom! Boredom, the mischievous villain that slowly sucks the life out of every moment, leaving you questioning your existence like a philosophical sloth. With boredom, time stretches out like a never-ending road trip with no entertaining sights or decent snacks. You find yourself staring at the wall, counting the specks of dust, and contemplating the meaning of life while contemplating whether to order takeout for the fourth time this week. Oh, the excitement of boredom, where even the most mundane activities become a welcome distraction from the abyss of nothingness!
Now, let's consider the pros and cons. Stress may provide you with a surge of motivation and urgency, but it also brings sleepless nights, frazzled nerves, and the tendency to resemble a human tornado. Boredom, on the other hand, may seem like a peaceful respite at first, but it can quickly turn your brain into a sluggish blob yearning for stimulation, leaving you contemplating outrageous activities like rearranging your sock drawer by color, size, and fabric composition.
So, which one is the lesser evil? Well, my friend, that's entirely up to you! Both stress and boredom have their unique quirks and challenges. Ultimately, finding a balance between excitement and relaxation is the key. So, when life presents you with the choice of stress or boredom, remember to take a deep breath, find some humor in the situation, and perhaps indulge in a silly dance or a random bout of karaoke to keep your spirits high. After all, laughter is the best stress reliever and boredom buster!
If itās permanently stressed or permanently bored then either one is a horrible reality, Iād rather be gay

Dynavap decisions
Is the newer (M+) worth the extra coin over the 2021 model?
For context I have a solo 2 and a table top water setup. I really like the solo 2, but I would like something a bit harder hitting for when Iām not in the mood to āsipā.
Thanks in advance

I've been using the 2021M for over a year now and love it in my vape rotation (I have a solo2 collecting dust; I may give it another whirl now you've mentioned it!) I have tried a friend's M+ only a couple of times and is very similar in feel, hit, flavour profile, heat up/cool down, etc.
Looks wise, I prefer my M but is that because it is my first and long used Dynavap? The M is costing around Ā£55, if you shop around a bit and the M+ is around Ā£80. If cost is the only issue, then go with the 2021M.
The one hit extraction with the M+ is a selling point but having tried it I found it a bit hit and miss and bordered very close to combustion (but then the important thing to remember about anything "Dynavap" is the learning curve and perseverance) but if I never used the one hit method ever again it wouldn't bother me!
Tips: A dynastash is handy or at least somewhere/something to place your hot M (especially metal and/or with a magnet to help keep in place and help cool it down).
With your first attempt and using a jet lighter, try heating the M first WITHOUT any herb so you can get used to the length of time for the heat up "click" and the cool down "click" - saves wasting/combusting weed when you invariably say to yourself "I've been heating this for over a minute now, where's the click... I thought it took about 20-30 secs... what's that burning smell?... Have I missed the click?... why are plumes of smoke billowing from my vape?"
Cheers :)

Thank you for the advise both. I went for the m+ and I do get the hype completely. Thanks for the advise on somewhere to put it once hot - a problem I tried to navigate when it had been heated and I was heading towards the moon š¤Ŗ
If I want to sit and enjoy terps SOLO 2 is the one, but for a mixture of ease and speed Dynavap wins!

Glad you are enjoying it. You may be satisfied now but if you get an itch to buy another Dynavap I recommend the WoodWynd, I got about Ā£30+ knocked off on Black Friday and that sealed the deal.
I love vaping hash in both, too.

Advice on effective use of my collected vape cleanings?

Advice on effective use of my collected vape cleanings?
I've had a Pax vape for a few months now, and over that time it's probably had 3-4 zips of good British bud pass through it. I've been cleaning it every day, then leaving the brush overnight to see how much collects on the end by morning. After days, weeks, and now months, I may still not have very much, but after making the effort to collect it up, I now want to consume what little I have gathered in the most effective way that's practical.
Most of the hard work was done via a variation on the dab tool technique, using plastic instead of greaseproof paper to collect up all the scrapings and so forth. However now I've managed to collect a little lump, I realised I don't know what to do with it! I stopped smoking a while ago, but regardless I wouldn't want to just put this in a joint.
I don't know how strong it is, as the consistency is similar to the nasty tasting black tarry stuff we used to scrape out of pipes (mostly rocky) as youngsters. However as this has come from pure good weed, I figured it should taste better even if it's not strong, and ideally I'd like to consume it in a way that lets me know how strong it is.
Although I don't normally smoke now, I'd still be happy trying a one-hit type smoking technique with this stuff. The biggest problem is the consistency, as it's too soft and oily for buckets or a normal hash pipe, even using the crack pipe technique of layering cigarette ash underneath.
There are two methods I think might work, but both come with problems. Hot knives were an obvious solution, but I've only ever done them with old school rocky so don't know how well they work with this stuff. Also I'm not 14 years old, plus oven hobs have changed a bit and I wouldn't know where to put the knife on mine (convection)!
There is one method that should theoretically work, but whether it works easily or effectively is another matter: it was actually the colour and consistency which gave me the idea of trying to chase a beetle of this on some tin foil. It'll look real bad if I'm caught, but that element aside, isn't it basically the same principle as those cheap little glass American style crack pipes? Effectively the foil with the oily resin stuff on it works like the glass bowl, as a solid platform you can apply heat to. Then just use a properly folded (so when unfolded any deposits are easily accessed) foil tube to inhale through, basically creating a separate stem that can follow the hot smoke across the foil, although that might be too narrow if there's loads of smoke, so I'd also try a funnel with a wide spout or something similar.
I'm looking to use this up now partly as I'm intending to buy a better vape - most likely a Tinymight 2 - which I doubt will leave as much over, but if it does I'll want to keep that seperate. I know some vapes (including the Pax's big brother) come with accessories for hash, concentrates and so forth, but I never read much about owners actually using them in all the posts and reviews about dry herb vapes.
One reason I'm taking this long to buy a new better vape is because no one seems keen to give me a deal. One place offered me a free accessory, but even after reading the description I didn't have a clue what it was for. If I'm forced into paying retail, I'll probably start a new topic here asking for advice about which of the many accessories are likely to be useful for me, but if anyone can suggest UK Tinymight sellers worth approaching for either a discount or some *useful* accessories, I'd be very grateful!
TL;DR - what's the best way to get the maximum effect from my little lump of vape scrapings? Preferably without having to smoke tobacco, or buy something I'll probably only use once.

Reddit response would be: Boof it! š¤

If you are planning on doing more solids in the future the Mighty is a more versatile choice than the TM2. Also there are plenty of deals on used but pristine TM2āsā¦.š

What a fucking D'oh! moment, it never occurred to me it would already be decarbed. That's great news, but it can't weigh much and my edible tolerance is huge. Still, better than the other option there!
I don't plan on trying solids, and if the Mighty is the fugly black plastic thing then I'm really not interested. The TM2 looks so cleverly designed, and notable on this topic - the design looks especially fast and easy to clean, unlike so much of the competition.
Where are these used vape deals? I checked a few places with little luck, and the idea of a new, warrantied model is very appealing to me. I'm disappointed they've shortened the warranty to 3 years now, but if they were originally happy with 10 for the same thing - that's pretty reassuring. I'm kinda surprised no one has built a slightly cheaper copy, especially the visual element.
PS - my phone is really slow. If you had $100 to spend on disposable vapes right now, from a reliable (preferably trackable) seller who'll get them out to me by Wednesday latest - what/who/where would you pick?

Thank you, that's extremely kind and very helpful.
I looked at ULC, but 3 x 0.5ml seems very expensive. What don't I understand which justifies that high price?

Partially because you are paying for the kit- the battery. Some 510 carts on their own are cheaper and you provide the kit. Look at Dr.Terpy for the cheapest.
I see what you mean. I've never had the battery to try carts with, otherwise I certainly would give them a go.
I noticed ULC have some 1mls as well. Do you think their regular distillate vapes like these are better than the average D9 disposable on LB?

OK, letās simplify things amigo, hereās the plan:
Eddys Hashbar has a battery for $8
Canadian Imports has Unicorn š¦ Piss carts for $26, and others, (and are including a free part fill in 100 orders).
They can both get that to you by Weds if you order now.

My method of dealing with dry herb vape residue is 'rinsing' with coconut oil. Because the sticky residue is also a bit oily in nature, it sticks to the coconut oil really well - making a bonus edible. Clean as normal afterwards.

Best dry flower vape?
I'm looking to start vaping my weed again I use to about 10 years ago with a flower mate I think and was never a fan of them. Didn't matter what strain I used always tasted like hay. Just wondering are they a lot better now because I'd love to vape some tasty terps indoors over going outside in -6 right now š any recommendations on one would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Iām by no means an expert having only really experienced the Mighty by Storz and Bickel, but it was a total game changer. Decent terps/flavour, super economical and way more discreet than the old flame and fire.
One question I had, and very curious to know what people think - is that after vaping for about 2 years, I had a pure joint and it completely blew my mind. It felt like I had only been getting 2/3s as stoned on my Pax for years. I've been smoking it/using bongs ever since. I've since read though that it easily gets you as high as smoking it (if you use the right vape properly), and is far more economical of course. Anyway, I don't know how much of this is psychological. I should prob just stump up for the Mighty and go back to vaping, health-wise just seems to be a no-brainer, and you get great flavours too!
I think iām terms of how stoned you get with a joint vs vaping, itās kind of like downing pints or having shots vs sipping on your over some time.
With smoking a joint, youāre combusting everything in one go and youāre taking in everything at once, and itās like downing your drink or having a shot.
with vaping, you take everything in slower and if youāre like me, you temp step up from your lowest temp to your highest temp. With doing that youāre slowing down how much youāre taking in and you get specific terps coming at different temps rather than everything in one go with combusting. Also i use less flower in the vape than a joint so in a joint getting more flower all at once rather than less flower over a session on the vape where you dial in on the terps n temps.
If youāre looking to get blasted off the vape itās probs best to set it to the highest setting from the beginning and then have a session on it like that, then youād be getting everything you get from a joint but without combusting.
But iām no expert in this, iāve only been vaping since the beginning of Dec, so there might be some inaccuracies in what iāve said and iām sure the other biggaz on here can provide a more expert opinion on the vaping š

The point about combustion is that of the goodies only THC survives the fire- everything else (CBG, CBN, CBD etc) are destroyed at the point of combustion and replaced with benzene and other carcinogenics. The full spectrum effect is history.
Since CBD naturally calms the effects of THC (in a good way) it will feel like a stronger hit, because it is.
Itās not worth the trade off imo. š„=š¹

Yeah Iād describe the vaping buzz as more rounded and less intense, for sure. My reaction times go to shit when I smoke a joint (not that theyāre very good sober like).
Thanks mate. It is fascinating because of course vaping is a pretty new method compared to š„ so all the goodies were not very much known about because they always literally went up in smoke!..
With the research being done these days I think we are going to learn a whole lot more about the complexities of our beloved plant, and all the more reasons for not torching it! š

I get this also I'm an evening toker so happy to slowly sip some terps over getting blasted off one shot
Mate, Iāve had a very similar journey over the last 18 months or so. I used the mighty religiously for like 6 months but then all this lovely hash started appearing on here and the cotton bacon method wasnāt doing it for me. So I returned to the flame and boom, back to the old school. Iām back on the mighty now mainly for health and stench prevention purposes haha.
I 100% hear you, I think thereās probably a bunch of factors. I think the buzz from vaping hits at a different vibe from smoking but it varies quite a bit like. Even cleanliness, when I remember to clean it properly it hits differently afterwards. Temperature too of course, if I find some spare time during the day I like a haze at 180-190, after work itās 210 all the way.

Get a volcano and put as much weed in as you do your joints.
In a mighty I think itās .2 in a cap, canāt see the full bowl being much more tbh.
I can do a Henry in a big Bertha joint, but would take me 17.5 kegs on the mighty. If I had the lungs and throat to do it, Iād be on my back š

You know what, I never bother with the caps. Just whack it in the bowl. Are the caps meant for reloading while traveling aye?
I just find it easier to load up the magazine think it holds 8 or 9 kegs.
Good for travel and fishing š

Iāve gone through a load of vapes over the last 10ish years and ive settled on 3 for different purposes in the endā¦ the Mighty for big hits/clouds indoors (and it gets you the most stoned per packed bowl imo), a Pax 2 (still available and cheaper than the newer models but just as efficient) for out and about and ease of use (it doesnāt quite hit as hard as the mighty but itās fine) and a Dynavap for full flavour smaller hits (if I want to get proper baked with the Dyna, I just pack a few more bowls).
I kinda agree with the other poster who said that they found vaping didnāt get them as high, but I found that you can fix that by taking a reasonable t-break before going over to the vape, or just having a longer vape sessionā¦

I started dry herb vaping a couple of months ago and I ended up getting the nectar hex which has been great so far.
If there arenāt any budgetary constraints, the mighty+ and the tiny might 2 are probably the best dry herb vapes around, but ofc they come with a hefty price tag.
Going down a price tier, the crafty+, nectar hex, arizer air max, arizer solo 2, pax 3 are all good options.
For a budget option maybe the xmas v3 pro would be of interest to you.
Itās probably easier to think about the features youād like and that are most important to you and then you can cross reference that with all the vapes. Things like price, do you want convection or conduction, do you need it to be portable/discreet, do you need usb c charging, do you want a removable and changeable battery, do you want to be able to set the exact temp or do you want something that has built in heat settings. Think itāll be easier for you to decide whatās best when you know what kind of things youād prefer and what features are important to you :)

There's tons of good topics about this .I bought a relatively cheap yokan vane vape. After smoking js its a bit of a letdown. There's one topic that always gets attention its this š¤£
I'm thinking of starting vaping again too so been doing a bit of research - I used to use the Pax, which suited my needs and was nice and portable. But I think it's not considered to be the best for flavour. I've heard great things about the Mighty but that's about Ā£300 so for a cheaper option I heard that the Arizer Air Max (Ā£130) is very nice for flavour as it has a glass heating system/glass mouthpiece.
I'm sure there are much more knowledgeable people about this than me though! Would love some recommendations too.

Yeah I did read up about the mighty but can't justify that money right now! I'll take a look at the arizer š
Oh and I think that things have for sure improved since the hay daze - even my Pax 2 wasn't too bad, and with the Mighty I'm sure you get amazing flavours; it's probably very good with the Arizer one too.
Really appreciate the input from everyone š iv got a list of vapes to have a look through now see what fits my budget and needs. Cool to hear the difference between smoking and vaping. I'm all for a different high experience as long as I'm still getting the flavours I love if I feel the need to get blitz I'll just hit the live resin vape cart š¤ I'm on the road to better smoking I use to mix baccy with my weed š¤¦š

Anything on here good for sleep ? Iv got a ton of strains but they are all either 50/50 hybrid or sativa like leaning strains. None of them help with sleep but are great for everything else
Iv never had an edible and my tolerance is embarrassingly low so Iād be a bit nervous with them and would like to try and stick with flower, if any one can recommend me some in stock now to try Iād appreciate it

Think about getting 3.5g of shrooms, Spaceman has them for 25 bucks.
Take .5 over a week, once everythings done for the day or if you have a day off once you get up.
the levels below actually tripping are incredibly therapeutic, you can take 1g and almost grasp the trip level yet remained grounded in the final therapy level.
Shrooms are more wholesome than canna, not by much granted, the euphoric blissful highs canna does better imo, however if you want a warm fuzzy feeling eminating from your belly, then micro-dosing shrooms can't be beaten.
You can micro-dose and cut down on the smoke easy.

Weed has never helped me sleep, often the oposite. However, Magnesium is the answer, buy some epsom salts and have a bath with them in just before bedtime. Or take a magnesium supplement before bed. I'm 100kg and I take 400mcg of Magnesium Citrate or Orate and I'm away 20 mins later.
I find a good indica before bed really helps me get a decent nights sleep. If it's bud you want then maybe check out The Gentlemen Dealers. They have a decent selection of indica heavy strains in stock - Candy Krush, Grandaddy Purple and Berry Burst are all indica dominant. I have smoked the Berry Burst before, it has quite a unique, earthy taste but provides a decent stone. I hope you find what you're looking for, l also rely on weed for a good nights sleep.
Get yourself a rso syringe mate, a rice grain size bit on a piece of fruit or choc 45 mins before bed.
you will sleep š
you will sleep š
RSO is a good shout but if your edible tolerance is that low then go with half a grain of rice!ā¦seriously, itās that strong!šµāš«
Iād recommend some pure CBD flower from one of the many legit online shops. Chuck a bunch in with your nighttime smoke. I find it gives a nice sleepy stoney effect when mixed with regular flower. Afghan Hash also tends to give a lovely sleepy, tranquil effect.
RSO mate. I canāt deal with edibles. They knock me out for literal days but have been trying RSO recently and itās honestly magical stuff.
Go easy and go slow, start with a blob smaller than the size of a grain of rice and work up from there. The ways to take it are endless but the result is always the same, nice and mellow.

Is rso not just like an edible in that itās the same but Iād just know exactly how much Iām having
Iām a sense yes, being able to accurately measure is a bonus but itās a full spectrum extract. Distillate, which is most often used for edibles is a lot purer but is basically just pure THC. RSO is an extraction that draws on the whole plant. This gives it all
Manner of promised health benefits but from personal experience I can say with a small steady build up it helps aid deep sleep. It also tastes horrendous so I have no idea how anyone could take too much š

If you are happy to try distillate then Unicorn š¦ Piss from Canadian Imports is blissful knockout juice!ā¦they have it in carts and pens. No operating heavy machinery! š¤¤š“
I vape weed due to insomnia. I suffer from idiopathic insomnia and very bad Restless Leg Syndrome which affects my entire body (even during the day during particularly bad bouts). Without weed, I don't sleep. Doctor's solution would be a fuck load of opioids, which I don't want when there's a more natural and safer solution available.
Things I've read/discovered about using weed for sleep:
- Older, slightly drier weed is supposedly better for inducing sleep. Don't ask me why or how, I don't know. And, to be fair, I vape a cheap shake which is a little older and drier and it works wonders.
- Lower dosages work better for sleep. My personal experience also backs this up, higher dosage = buzzed, lower dosage = drowsy. I like to feel like I've had a couple of pints of beer, at that point I sleep well.
- As much as they suck, take regular T-breaks. I do two 2-week T-breaks per year. I get the impression I should actually be doing them slightly more regularly, but it seems to be working for me.
- At the risk of starting a massive argument, there's not much evidence that strain makes much ā if any āĀ difference. However, the article I read that said this did concede that different terp profiles might make a difference and that was something that hadn't received much testing.
- Weed-induced sleep isn't as restful as natural sleep, and you probably won't dream while you're under the influence. My goal is to have JUST enough weed to get me through the "danger zone" of the night: 3am-5am. If I wake during that time then I won't get back to sleep, but if I take too much weed I'll be groggy and badly rested by the time the alarm goes off.
Also a second vote from me for magnesium, which is what I used before I discovered weed. It helped me a lot with my sleep, my Restless Leg Syndrome, and also an autoimmune skin condition I've suffered from my entire life. Only problem is it can give you the shits. Different forms of magnesium can be gentler on the stomach but then they're less bio-available and so you have to take more. I also tried a skin-applied alternative one time but it gave me dermatitis so it ended up in the bin (wasn't cheap, either). YMMV. IANAD.

Runny d9 distillate carts
Hi all,
I have a question for all biggas?? I transitioned from smoking bud to using carts for the best part of 2 years now, since I found lb, although I havenāt tried everyoneās I have tried a lot and mainly purchase of a couple of trusted vendors.
My most recent order I have decided to try a different vendor, Iāve used them before for hash so as I was restocking on some hash I thought why not get some other carts as they were fairly priced.
Received next day as promised. But as I went to open one to sample, I noticed the liquid being very runny. So usually thereās a lil bubble in the cart, if you turn the cart upside down it would take a few mins for it to get to the bottom. Not this cart this one the air bubble instantly moves from side to side as quick as you can turn it. Like one of the straightening measuring tools.
This had me alarmed as I remember when starting my cart journey I was always told any carts that is not thick. Itās no good. Iām not saying this vendors product is fake. But on the description it does say nothing added. But it dosent seem like it. First time Iāve seen a cart like this. Could some of you fine biggas share some light on this as Iām not sure just to totally write them off or give them a go. (Also messaged the vendor but awaiting reply)
Have a great weekend all. Thanks

No they should not be runny proper distillate is thick. There is the off chance that itās proper distillate but thereās an excess of terpenes/liquidizer making it thin, however I would recommend to stick to trusted cart vendors in the future. Canadian imports, SENSI MART, Dr extracts and sayno2drugs to name a few.
I wouldnāt smoke that if I were you but if you writing this post after toking it it seems like itās survivable šš

Looools well I didnāt think I was gonna drop dead. But more long term effects. Anyways, yeah lesson learnt, will stick to my trusted vendors in the future. Thank you my friend.
Yeah I mean 1 cart is unlikely to have a significant impact on any long term effects as that requires a significant accumulation of whatever the contaminant is, itās all a probabilities game anyway we see plenty of full time smokers who live past 90 and die of something unrelated to smoking and there are also plenty of non smokers who get lung cancer before 60. Not to mention the pollution in London alone exposes you to thousands of toxic and carcinogenic chemicals so yeah I aināt too bothered š the danger is when people cut carts with things like vitamin E which can have a destructive impact to your lungs in the short term
