Micro-dosing

[Bad Dog]

What is your setup of choice for those .02g doses?

New Vape Weedeater, I'll load .04-.05 cbd then top it with the .02 of thc because I still crave bigger hits. Sometimes I'll 3/4 load my Dynavap then add just enough thc. Cutting with cbd really makes my life a lot easier.

Had something of a misadventure yesterday. Started my day with .02 but it didn't hit me quite as hard as I would have liked so mid afternoon I decided to have .1 as a treat but man did it end up being something of a mistake First off the hit was a little denser than I guess I've gotten accustomed to lately and had a bit of a cough followed by a cannarush as strong as the first time I dabbed! I was so high, maybe even a little uncomfortably so for daytime and it lasted for 4+ hrs. Didn't even feel like my usual nighttime bowl after the experience or a bowl this morning. Had .02 this afternoon and it again didn't hit as hard as I would have liked but definitely don't feel the need to be chasing the dragon today lol. Think I might just stick with .02-.03 until my t break in a couple days then restart at lower levels and see how it goes. Got to watch out for those .1 Weedeater bowls they are killer

My break and resensitization are over and I'm back to vaping and I'm lowering my dose a bit. Cutting back to 2 doses a day but I'm keeping things flexible and will either vape first thing in the morning or early afternoon then again at bedtime. For daytime between .02-.04 and .04 in the evening for a max of .08 a day. If you had told me a few years ago that I could be down to such a small amount and still enjoying myself I would have said you were full of shit, yet here I am and it still floors me.

Woke early and treated myself to .04 with a coffee, walked the dog and watched the sunrise and it was throughly enjoyable. A couple hours later and I still have a nice gentle buzz........ freaking love my shity tolerance

How long do you break before restart your microdose method?

The Dr Dustin Sulak resensitization method calls for a minimum two day break followed by 3 day's resensitization. Check out his video on YouTube he can describe it better then me but cliffs notes version, the break is to help reset your tolerance and the resensitization of just barley feeling something, your brain struggles to get high and starts producing more thc receptors. After your resensitization when you start back up on a more normal dose it can really kick your ass, I've had pretty dam good results with this method.

Did a little macro dosing this past weekend but it was still sort of micro dosing? Both days I had a mid morning session and had my whole .08 day's dose on Saturday and I was flying......... like all day! I didn't even have my customary nighttime bowl, just didn't feel the need. Sunday I had .2 over a half hour and felt dab high! All day! And again had nothing else. Monday came and I went back to my weekday dosing which still hit alright for .02 and gave me a gentle buzz. Since really getting into micro dosing I definitely seem to be feeling higher longer, I just seem to be more sensitive. The occasional macro dose is nice but not something I want to do all the time for several reasons but I do enjoy it from time to time and if I don't overdo it, it doesn't effect my micro dosing. As much as I would like to get down to one dose a day, in this stressful climate that we find ourselves in a little daytime vaping really helps me in many ways and it might be a while before I work my way down to that.

Yes, i did his protocol one year ago, and works very well, but those days, i´m not get discipline to continue microdosing. But i´m trying again, and i think i will do it sucessufull this time. The first time I did, on the 3 day of the protocol, i melt my mind with so little, and my tolerance was very high.

2 years ago I was like a 1g- 1 1/2g a day smoker not super high but high enough, now on a good day I'm .08-.06 and I don't really see myself going back for many reasons but the number 1 reason is how easily I can get really baked. Don't get me wrong it hasn't been all sunshine and rainbows it took a lot of work and there were times I struggled with it, a couple months ago when I cut back from .1 down to .05 the first couple weeks kinda sucked. Up until that point I had only been cutting back by like .01 at a time which was easier but slow. Up until a few months overdue t break and my first resensitization everything began to feel better. I'm still a work in progress and I even still like to indulge but I pretty much keep it to the weekend and yes the first day back can be a little lacklustre but by day two your back in the swing of things. One of the main things that helped me was working on my dose size first then cutting back how many sessions a day. Now I pretty much vape every 12 hours during the week around 4 on weekends unless I macro dose or dab then I might only have 1 session a day. I also owe a lot of my success to my Weedeater, it provides the hit size I crave and is extremely efficient so I get every bit of my meds. Micro dosing isn't the easiest path to walk so it can frustrate people before they really get to see its benefits. And might sound a bit weird but its my indulgences that keeps me motivated to micro dose, I find my indulging so satisfying that I want to do it so easily again and I can and do every weekend with very few consequences. I also shoot for a t break every month to month and a half, typically going 3 days off then 3 days resensitization.

When you done Microdosing for a while,say a couple of month..Macrodosing isn't really "funny"any longer,atleast that's the case for me.So please stay with the Micro one instead of Macro one,save health,lungs and money..

I still enjoy the occasional macro dose and find it very therapeutic to destress. But it's not like I'm just barley getting by during the week or my indulging is all I can think about, I'm very satisfied with my micro dosing and feel pretty dam high with a .04 load. In time I may move away from such indulging but right now I find it useful for my wellbeing. I also plan my day around my heavier sessions and if I don't have a few hours to be fairly incapacitated I don't indulge, I just don't have the giddy up and go to power through such a thing theses days. If I can't dedicate the time I just don't do it. Micro dosing has done wonderful things for me and other then my .02 loads more or less just taking the edge off my .04 get me equally if not more so high than when I was on .1 just becoming more sensitive I'm still pretty floored by the effects. But I can see what your saying about it not being " funny " as sometimes I'm just not prepared for how strong the effects are or how long they last.

Seen some of your posts around the site and it is excellent to see you around bro! Hope your doing good as well, I know you face a lot of challenges but your upbeat personality has always been a inspiration to me

Thanks I am around quite a bit I don't post a lot. Super excited I just picked up the custom US bubinga splinter Z with 2 XL8R kooling kits, WPA adapter, and a Wismec RX gen3 I've always wanted to try one and I've heard that the US made ones are much more reliable and better made:-) Loving my new Mighty as well. Argh Argh VAS lol

I've been microdosing the past month + out of necessity ($). It feels almost criminal getting high off amounts this small. I don't have a scale, but I'm not even fully covering the screen on my M & getting decent vapor (for such a small amount).

I ended up breaking the 14mm seal from my old Supreme that I was using on the M. Going back to direct draw, closing the airport made the vapor to hot & harsh for my liking. That's when I started using my M like a carb cap & closing the airport only towards the end of the hit when vapor starts thinning out. GAME CHANGA...(4 me). The vapor is smoother, tastier and not as harsh, but...the high is waaaaaaaay more headier & seems to last longer as well! Bonus!!! The time in between sessions has increased as well.

Never thought I'd truly be able to microdose (use small amounts, yes, but microdose ?!?!?) , so this has been really awesome for me.

Hi Morty mate.

Okay just a simple thought struck me. Possibilities! You are a fab example of how things can change with will and application.

I mean, fairplay you dived and explored the hardest core of vaporizing weed.

Yet now you feel nothing missing from much much more moderate, gentle usage.

I barely need a lot of vapor these days myself, I cut back heavily for months.

I still depend on largeish daily edible doses, but to break from Vaporizing weed- it's like my tolerance resets however much herb I eat(??).

And I drink tons of Kava admittedly lol!

But just small amounts of vaped weed really get me there now.

It shows a lot anyway your own transition @Morty . Great example. Keep well mate.




Oh, ps. I edited just now purely for typos. I swear I didn'y call you a bitch mother#uc$k÷r fiirst time round lol!


You know me and my typos. That damn, slight optic nerve injury has mafe me into a typo freak. Seriously sometimes it even embarrasses ME lol!

 

[Morty]

What up @Alexis. Hope your well mate! I gotta admit, I've always been intrigued by trying to find the ceiling and also barely crossing the threshold. Even when I was blasting those sammies through the Sup all the time, I still enjoyed taking a couple puffs off my DT Gen2 510 at around 300°F too. Very very light high, but perceptible and definitely "there".

Truth be told, it's not the big doses that fuck me so much, but the medium doses. Can't be stoned to the hilt during work so the big doses usually would be at night (or off day), and the small doses keep my mood improved, my mind sharp and just generally feeling good and ready to tackle the day. It's that extra hit or two per session, or extra couple sessions per day that do me in.

I still depend on largeish daily edible doses

Edi's feel so goooooood. As long as they're not made from distillate. HARD PASS!

Even though it's the weekend my usual time for indulging, micro dosing won over but not for the sake of keeping with the routine. Had .05 for a early morning wake and vape and .04 3 1/2-4 hours later before I fully came down, spent the day feeling pretty high and good, was planning on having another .05 or even a little more in the evening but didn't. After such a nice day by 7 o'clock I was actually feeling fairly burned out and in the evening I don't vape to get high I vape for the burnout to help with getting to sleep and since I was already a bit groggy there was no need for that last session. Woke up today still a bit groggy so I put off any wake and vape which would have only made me want to go back to bed. So it looks like I'm probably just going to have another 2 session day. Since switching to micro dosing I'm much more in tune with what I require vs what I want or at least what I think I want. Even though I do enjoy hitting it a bit harder here and there its not like it's necessary and is more for enjoyment than need. Micro dosing really can satisfy if you give it the opportunity

Is it possible to micro dose CBD effectively like you can THC? I'm going to the dispensary tomorrow and thought of picking up ACDC (CBD strain) flower for the first time to use with my DynaVap. I get excellent effects from THC at .03-.07g in the VapCap.

Or does CBD flower need much higher quanitities to get effects? In which case I'll pass since an eigth of CBD flower is the same cost as an eighth of THC flower, aka not cheap

 

[bateu a nave]

About to complete a week of microdose, and this time, I think I really found its benefits. The two hits that I have given 3 times a day, have kept my good mood and are already necessary to face my day. At the end of the week, just 5 hits took me to the clouds, which before my microdose started, my tolerance was very very high, and my break after starts microdose, was only 2 days. Without a doubt, this time, I will take the microdesis further.
What I realized is that our brain is able to relearn the new high with small doses. I believe that after a month or a little more, my tolerance will drop more and more.

So happy to read that Microdosing is working for you guys,me,well you might know already i'm a big beliver in my motto...Do everything in moderation,even moderation ..so please teach others/friends tryit too..The man who thought me Microdosing is Dr.Sulak..i'm now implementing his breathing technique..and it works wonders for my "spinning-head thoughts".It calms me down and i can find a inner peace/relaxation that i didn't have much of all my 62 years..Mix everything of above togheter with my Fury2...win win win.
Thank you for reading,have a great day everyone..:-)

I try to spread to word but often get some attitude back in the form of 'yeah whatever'. People aren't willing to even be open to the idea of micro dosing for the most part!

I've always found I need at least double the cbd as thc for any discernable effect but I'm not what you would call cbd sensitive

That's what I think, too. For tinctures the recommended average starting dose is 15-30mg. Whereas with THC I get great effects from 3-5mg of THC

Makes me wonder if a lot of the people who smoke CBD strains get the relaxing effects more from the CO2 from combustion from the CBD joint/bowl they toke on rather than even the CBD effects themselves?

I've used Lazarus Naturals' CBD tinctures and don't even really notice effects from as high as 50mg CBD =/ I'm kind of expecting flower to be a similar dud to be honest, especially vaping in micro dose form.. but I think to sprinkle it on a 2:1 or 1:1 THC:CBD ratio would be beneficial for synergy/entourage, so hopefully it won't be a total waste of $70 for an eighth of ACDC

I don't remember how cannabis felt in the 2000's when I got into cannabis in the first place, but they supposedly had a more balanced THC and CBD ratio whereas today it's all THC in cannabis. It's hard to find more balanced strains, and now you have to buy 1 THC and 1 CBD strains and mix the two yourself to emulate the 'old school' cannabis, it seems

I know I'm not about to start rolling CBD-only joints just to get effects. Once you get into micro dosing mentality it's hard to justify to go macro like that again, especially where price is concerned. One joint of CBD for minimal effects would be sky high costs compared to keep on going with micro dosing THC when the flowers cost exactly the same, but you have to use way more CBD flower in weight to get effects.. (not even talking head high since that's not what CBD is for of course. But for simple anxiety reduction purposes even. Maybe it's much more effective for pain and inflammation reduction per hit than for anxiety, idk)

Update: I think you can micro dose cbd!? After finally getting to try another strain of cbd I'm getting results from as little as .05 Strain choice can make a world of difference. Up until now I've only had 1 strain, hybrid cannatonic but recently tried B3 a indica dominate and I like it so much better. Cbd % is no stronger than the cannatonic but the effects are so much better and much more Discernable which I suppose shouldn't have surprised me as I've always been dissatisfied with hybrid thc for the most part as well as being strain fussy. I will say if I'm using cbd exclusively I vape more often than with thc and I do like a .1 load size a little better

Honestly probably pushing that much per week.
