    Low/Microdosed edible recipes?

    The Kiva mints and bites that have 2.5mg and 5mg THC are very interesting, curious if anyone has a reliable recipe that you use for making low-dose edibles like gummies? Getting the ratio of THC to oil seems reasonably easy but fitting that into a recipe where you know exactly how many servings...

    Are Strain Review Sites Useful?

    For instance: https://www.leafly.com/indica/granddaddy-purple GDP at the absolute top end has 1.6% myrcene with a range of .3 to 1.6, so the average sample should have ~.8%. Assuming you imbibe an entire gram at once and all myrcene is captured, that's 8mg myrcene. I'm aware of no studies...

    Are Strain Review Sites Useful?

    There's a much bigger factor there that you're not accounting for: your knowledge of what 'strain' is being sold to you. The placebo effect is massive - perhaps if you're sold "energetic" cannabis, you may be priming yourself for it to be energetic and act accordingly - you'll smoke/vape it when...

    Distillate into MCT oil - do you need heat?

    I've not heard of some MCTs not needing to be processed by the liver - Googling, the place I find that mentioned is Dave Asprey's blog (in the context of selling a product high in Caprylic Acid). All the other sources I can find say that all MCTs are processed by the liver.

    Distillate into MCT oil - do you need heat?

    My previous experiment with MCT oil was with decarbed flower - worked great in a Magic Butter machine but however you prefer to do your oil would work fine. I've heard of MCT oil because of all the keto/'bulletproof coffee' stuff, but I really chose it because it's easier to work with than...

    The WeedTubers: these people make a living getting stoned on YouTube

    I understand these even less than I understand regular professional Youtube people. I've tried videos from most of the major ones and outside of a few product reviews (most of which are just sponsored hackwork - VapeCritic is pretty good)... talking about marijuana is boring. "Oh, man, I'm...

    Are Strain Review Sites Useful?

    I'm skeptical of most marijuana information sites that claim to collect research (avalanches of bro-science) and when someone like Steep Hill Labs start emphasizing terpenes what I hear is a value-added service, since they test for them. In the Cannabis Clinicians article, it uses pull quotes...

    Are Strain Review Sites Useful?

    Before any of it's useful, I think terpenes need more study to see if they have any real effect beyond flavor and smell. Lots and lots of talk about myrcene does this and pinene does this but no double-blind comparisons that I'm aware - two samples with equal cannabinoid profiles but different...

    Distillate into MCT oil - do you need heat?

    I came upon a few grams of decarbed distillate, I want to infuse it into MCT oil (think liquid coconut oil) for encapsulating or use with a blunt syringe to measure exact ml. Do I need heat, or would I be able to just blend it with lecithin and the distillate to get the same effect?

    Thinking about a Mobius Micro Matrix II - anything else to consider?

    Wow, some of that SOL stuff is gorgeous. http://aqualabtechnologies.com/bongs-water-pipes/bong-brands/seed-of-life-glassworks/seed-of-life-18mm-sacred-g-sidecar-bubbler.html If only that were a couple of inches taller.

    Thinking about a Mobius Micro Matrix II - anything else to consider?

    Yeah, the Micro measurements there seemed pretty funky - from what I found elsewhere the base is ~4.5" and the height to the joint is 8.5" (or a couple of inches taller than the D020s, I think).

    Thinking about a Mobius Micro Matrix II - anything else to consider?

    I want to get a domestic glass piece, center column, taller than the D020-style bubblers, bent neck, relatively simple (one perc) for use with vaporizers. The Mobius Micro Matrix is my current top option but I'm curious if anyone has suggestions for what else I should think about? Budget is...

    Vaping and Memory Loss

    The hippocampal blood flow article at the beginning of the thread is interesting. I don't think that the possible negatives of regular use can be written off - as you shouldn't get blitzed on vodka night after night, getting very high on the reg will have downsides (though not as severe IMO)...

    Volcano

    There are a ton of opinions about it, ranging from "it's a waste" to "best ever" - some people use a kiln-style atomizer on a box mod, others use a liquid pad in a Crafty or similar vape. The Volcano + balloon seems to get very good reviews and I like that it doesn't seem to require dedicating a...

    Volcano

    If you wanted to vaporize DMT w/ the Volcano and balloons, would purchasing a separate filling chamber (and using a dedicated balloon) avoid any concerns about odor/taste that people talk about when using vaporizers for DMT?
