Great post @lwien! I remember reading about some new research on 'runner's high' on the Google about a year ago that suggested that it could be due to endocannabinoids rather than internal opiates. For years it's been known that one of the problems with endorphins is that they do not cross the...

Just did a quick experiment. Some readings before my first vape of the day. bp: 128/90 pulse: 88 1/2 bowl of sativa in a Mighty (~8 minutes) plus 2 minutes of breathing meditation later bp: 113/78 pulse: 92 The only thing that's of note is the mild rise in heartbeat - or 'reflex...

I've been told that a '510' pen vape battery will deliver a single draw of about 5 mg of vapor, but this may vary depending on the make of the cartridge etc and given that most THC oils are around 60%-80% THC, you're looking at 3.5mg THC per draw. I find that about 4-6 draws is enough to get me...

I've had asthma for, oh, close to 50 years now and previously had smoked weed for years though thankfully I never got into the nicotine habit. Stopped all smoking for health reasons, high blood pressure, pre-diabetic etc. maybe 10 years ago. When I was smoking I would get bronchitis and...

Hey MinnBobber, I'm gonna try out a mango as soon as I can get hold of some. We need to approach this with an open mind in the spirit of scientific discovery ;) Plenty of stuff out there seems to support the myrcene hypothesis, but this article claims that we will get better results if we chew...

There's another thread here where I mention Noopept, the memory enhancer nootropic. The first time I took it I was astounded how crystal clear my mind felt when I started getting high from a good sativa hit. The other thing with this nootropic though, like anything that works at all, is that it...

Noopept definitely works for me and if you take a sizeable first dose, say 20-30 mg you may feel the effect very quickly, within half an hour as the molecule is small, and crosses the blood-brain barrier quickly. They say that you need to take it consistently over a few days for it to start to...

I've had some success with cognitive supplements or nootropics e.g. noopept, which helps with alertness, mental clarity and focus. Definitely a blast to synergize with THC. Think of it as an Adderall without the side effects. Noopept is available over the counter. Other supplements some of...

Just one word, google it: Nootropics In fact it appeared once in this thread, which is what brought me here. Thanks for mentioning citicholine. It's a new one for me and I love learning new things - I went to Examine.com and checked up more about it. Sorry, need to get back on topic. About a...

I've had asthma all my life and I'm in my 50s now. Smoking always made me wheeze and I would get bronchitis a couple times a year. I started vaping two years ago and since then I've NOT had bronchitis at all, and even my wheezing has improved so much so that I can vape a few times a day and...

Hey folks, I don't know how you guys do it UNLESS I've been doing it totally wrong... Here's how it works for me: 1. Coarse grind with a Santa Cruz Shredder 2. Loose pack about 100 milligrams per bowl. This should be about one even bowl, maybe a bit more but not too much that when it expands...

Hey Mitch, thanks for the interesting note on ABV color - I only have the FF and the P2 so I won't know. My first few efforts on the FF ended up with wispy clouds and the brown ABV, so I associated that with incomplete extraction. Maybe the heat is too high on the FF, > 400F, resulting in the...

FC newbie but long-time toker and severe asthmatic here. I agree with Snappo that it could well be something in the environment. I've been vaping about a year and I do notice much fewer asthmatic attacks compared to back when I was combusting. Some of these meds work for me - loratadine...

Hey folks Long-time toker, newbie vaper and Firefly fanboi here. I've been lurking here a few months after discovering FC, and especially this thread with such a lively community around the Firefly. Now I've had the FF over a year now and I am still in love with it! Anyways after almost...
