Getting high

I'm going to Portland later this month. When I fly back home I'm going to Baltimore first, then back home.

Any advice on bringing edibles back? Is it fairly safe? Or should I just forget it? I had a weed lollipop years ago that I loved but would like to try others as well. My GF is fine with me smoking weed but hates the smell and smoking. I'm thinking she would try some edibles with me if it's viable to bring them back.

I've flown out of PDX with edibles several time. In my experience, you're generally good if you remove any labeling, and mix it in with other candies like Reese's Pieces, M&Ms, chocolate pieces, gummy worms, etc.

Just put each type in sandwich bags, drop all the bags into a gallon freezer bag, and put it in your carry-on, and you're set.
 
What do we even call this group anyway? HighGaf? WeedGaf? I like WeedGaf.

Anyway, WeedGaf, I'm going back to school in Ohio in a few days, which means no more dispensary-grade California weed. :(

Really? Weed always makes me energized, especially Blue Dream.
For me it weirdly depends on mood. I've felt really lazy on sativa and really active on indica. At least, from what I've tried. Lately I've been lazier but there was a period where, every time I'd get high alone I'd start with a light workout while listening to music. Good times. That was also when I was living at home. In the apartment with roommates it's a little harder to pull off.

Anyway, I'm going to be job searching soon so I'll have to clean up for a bit. Not looking forward to it. But I AM looking forward to reaching the point where I can safely toke again since I'll be less tolerant.

Right now I'm looking at a nice little bit of "vape resin" that I've collected over the past few weeks. I imagine I'll want to get messed up on this once my break is over. Does anybody have advice for the best way to use the resin? Should I just vape it like normal? Cook it into something? Smoke it?

What's everyone's experience drinking and smoking at the same time? Do you like it at all or would you prefer one or the other?
Well, speaking of tolerance, combining weed and alcohol certainly helps maintain a good level of being messed up. But, balance is key. I've taken shots of 151 rum and then giant hits from my vape. A bit too much is plain sickening. But if you get it right, it's great.

A little bit of both in a social setting and I imagine I could dance the night away.

I got some Pheonix Tears last night. It has a good balance of THC and CBD.
Got it mainly as a preventative to various health issues, but the side effect of having a mild buzz is nice as well. A tiny drop or two a day is my goal.

Anyone here tried mescaline? Just finished reading Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (great book) and their casual use of mescaline and them making it to not sound that intense as other psychedelics makes me really curious to try it.
 
Picked up an eighth of Blue Dream and another of Strawberry Haze. The SH is the nicest smelling and tasting weed I've ever tried, I couldn't believe it when my guy opened the bag and told me to sniff. It doesn't smell of weed at all, just strawberry smoothie. And it tastes like strawberry gummies. Incredible.

I've heard really good things about the BD too. I am so lucky to have this variety in the UK.

I gotta watch that movie again, saw it for the first time maybe 6 years ago and figured given the subject material it would be good to get nice and high beforehand. My friends came home partway through and thought I was crazy but I enjoyed it a lot lol.

I have made a Drugs |OT| in Off Topic Community, so if you want to talk about drugs other than weed, i.e psychedelics, I think that thread is a more suitable place.

When I was competitively snowboarding, cannabis definitely helped with inflammation, pain reduction and easing me to sleep. That really helped during training. I got lost out off bounds on some run called Love Canal in Whistler stoned out of my mind though too. So maybe you're right.

that feel when you realize you've been using your vape incorrectly the whole time
How so? That is, what have you been doing incorrectly?

I've used three vapes so far:

Magic Flight Launch Box:
-No issues here. Using the thing is easy. You can clearly see vapor forming in the chamber, and can clearly tell when you're properly sucking out the vapor, regardless of whether you're using the stem or going "native." The method of pressing in the battery to power it up makes it extremely easy to control.

Arizer Extreme Q
-Finding the right temperature was the only real hangup here. When set to around 165C-170C it produces the perfect amount of vapor, but you have to give it a few hits before the weed is willing to really exhaust itself. The first hit is never the best. Hits 3-5 can be quite potent. The key is to take a really slow breath, and breathe through the nose occasionally to create a vacuum (this applies to any vaporizer, actually). At some point, the vapor just starts pouring out, and hits become extremely powerful. You don't have to crank up the temperature much at all until the product is really browned and seemingly exhausted. Even then, a fully loaded cyclone chamber takes several good hits before it's ready for the ABV container, where it moves onto becoming ripe for edibles.

Arizer Air
-The efficiency of this vape is crazy. It produces powerful hits at the LOWEST setting pretty much right out of the gate. It barely needs a minute to heat up. This challenge is knowing when to turn it off so that it's not burning the product away. I still haven't mastered this, since the metal heating plate is so close to the product. I do often feel like I'm wasting product a little bit if I don't get enough hits in before the thing powers off. It's truly a tool for those who are a bit more tolerant, as the best way to use it seems to be by taking several hits at the lowest setting before it powers off. You can really get a lot out of it before going from the blue setting to white and then to green. Gotta be quick. But damn, does the Air produce clouds of vapor pretty much constantly.

The way I was sucking in the vapor, more of it was probably going into my stomach rather than my lungs. Now that I've changed that, I'm getting high on a lot less concentrate than before.

I feel really dumb lol. Better to figure it out late than never I guess.
 
Today's lesson: Never judge weed on how it looks.

Picked up 1/8 of amnesia haze and another of candy kush and the latter looks pretty shit. Didn't notice until I took it out the baggy. It's a weird mix of faded green, light brown and yellow, is dry as hell, looks like it's been left in the sun for a week...yet I just loaded a bowl with .2 and I'm blazed.

Anyone have any idea why it looks like it does though?
 
hey y'all

pretty new to mj just got my recommendation here in cali

I tried a vape pen with an indica cartridge and smoking it made my body feel relaxed but I didn't really get any kind of cerebral high.. Is that normal? Was thinking of trying out a hybrid cartridge next time

also interested in edibles

kinda looking for something that can replace my drinking cause my liver needs a breather

That is normal, though some indicas (Grandaddy purple in particular) can give a psychoactive effect when you're really high. Definitely try a hybrid.

Edibles can be kinda tricky because you never know what you're gonna get, so take it slow
 
Yeah, please be careful with edibles as you're new to it and your tolerance is low. Read one of my previous posts a page or so back about what can happen if you fuck up with them.
 
Any suggestions for things to do with a bunch of stems? I had a co-worker that claimed he made tea out of them, but I've never heard of anyone else trying that.

I was thinking about putting them in a vodka bottle to try and make 'potka', but I'm not sure how to go about fusing the two. It can't be as easy as just putting those in a bottle, right?

You could always make a tincture.

Not sure how worth it it would be with stems, though.

Unconsciously been having Sunday as my "t-day" every week. Helps for recharging the batteries and powering up the juices but it's not set in my principles.

Anyone try applying for a medical card in a different state? Driving to a neighbor state for some good herb could be worth it...
 
Wow never heard of this before but that sounds like what I'm going for - thanks! Going to give it a shot in the near future and will report my findings.

This method is also known as "Green Dragon." I've never made it with stems, but it can be quite potent. As with all edibles, set aside some time the first time you try it, and don't assume you can handle any amount you want. Find the appropriate dosage over time.

Thinking of getting a medical MJ card to curb weight gain from beer and asthma but am unsure where to start: is it just super easy as it sounds in SoCal? Hopefully we'll follow suit wit Oregon and Washington this fall.

Wtf? Do you happen to have the website? I was thinking of going in person and buying directly from a dispensary. I have kids so I don't want to do anything remotely shady.
 
420recs.com is what I used

I confirmed them as legit via Google search that led me to Reddit

they sent me an email with a printable copy same day and then a physical copy came a few days later in the mail

there's no dispencaries near me only delivery services and I've had a good experience with them.. one of them even delivers until 2 am .. Weedmaps.com

Assume you have to be there to sign for it?
 
how long do you guys think a vape cartridge will last?

is $50 a lot or am I getting ripped off

When I was living back in Eastern Washington, I was paying $90 for a CO2 vape cartridge, so that's not bad. They're a lot cheaper here in Oregon.

Depending on how much you use it, they can last a while.

Yeah, that's probably not going to get you the results you 're looking for.

What can be used to minimize red eyes? They suck, and suck much more the next day when you're not high but they still burn like hell. Any eyedrops or something?
