    Micro-dosing

    I'm dosing with CBD-rich FECO that has a 2:1 ration of CBD to THC. I'm taking 70 of CBD and 35 of THC per day in 3 doses through the day. I worked up to that over 6 weeks and plan to continue this dose for another month for a total of almost 4 months. What I have found is that the dose of vaped...

    Cannabis' Effects on the Brain

    Since you are frequenting Ayurveda sites and addiction sites for information you will likely find mostly negative assessments of cannabis use there. I understand that cannabis is not for everybody, and some people have negative experiences with it, or discover that they abuse it and their use...

    Cannabis' Effects on the Brain

    Thanks for those 3 studies @EverythingsHazy. Study #1 is pretty objective and makes an effort to NOT overstate negative conclusions. Study #2 is from the Am Journal of Addiction, a journal that will likely never publish anything except negative assessments of all cannabis use. 16 of the 48...

    Cannabis' Effects on the Brain

    I'm not anti-western medicine. I owe my life to it, from the urgent surgery I had in '98 for colon cancer, to the left shoulder replacement I had done in 2012 and the prostatectomy for prostate cancer I had in 2014. I'm not sure about the "hundreds of thousands" it kills every year. As with...

    Cannabis' Effects on the Brain

    It's fine to be looking for studies that present the dangers of cannabis consumption, but you have to get your bullshit detector out when reading the conclusions from some of the researchers who have their studies funded by NIDA, DEA, NIH. The US Government is not looking to allow studies which...

    Cannabis' Effects on the Brain

    @biohacker - you should at least click on your links before posting to be sure they are still active. Many you posted above are not... the very first one is a dead link: http://www.msrc.co.uk/index.cfm/fuseaction/show/pageid/1815/ This one is dead too: "There is now convincing evidence that...

    Sativa lovers

    I love anything "Jack." From Jack Herer to Jack the Ripper, J1, XJ-13, and of course all the others with similar smells and effects like Cindy99, Trainwreck, Ghost Train Haze, Super Lemon Haze and Dutch Treat. It's the citrus fruit and pine brigade :-)

    A vape with the power to punch you in the face like a bong?

    The hit you get is dependent on several things. First - how much herb is loaded in the bowl? Second what is the temp you are vaping at? The bigger the bowl, the more material that's in it, and the hotter the temp used - all these factors will determine how big a rip of cannabinoids you get with...

    convection vs conduction

    I have one convection vape: an EDIT Convector, a rebranded Weecke Fenix. I use a medium grind. The bowl holds about 0.2 gm and I do not pack at all. Convection only works well when hot air is pulled via a draw through the heater which is underneath the bowl and freely passes around and through...

    Cannabis Cup CA 2017

    Just curious - have you been to other Cannabis Cups, or Hempcons, in California? High Times is having some problems with the Cannabis Cup in Las Vegas, Nev that is on Native American land. The feds just let them know that consumption and distribution isn't allowed per federal law. I'm not saying...

    Cannabis Cup CA 2017

    Just remember that to participate in the consumption area you still must be a medical cannabis patient. The general public over 21 can get in to see exhibits and speakers, listen to concerts and buy paraphernalia, but if you want to buy bud, concentrate, or edibles you must be a patient...

    My Stash

    I always look at my newly purchased bud with a jeweler's loop, but I also buy about 95% from dispensaries that claim publicly to test everything they sell for contaminants like molds and pesticides in addition to cannabinoid potency profiles. I have yet to find any mold. I do remember going to a...

    What's your occupation or field of study?

    Retired RN, I worked 40 years in acute care hospitals - 20 in critical care (ICU and ER) and almost 20 as a Clinical Systems Analyst in hospital IT. I used cannabis occasionally to rarely while working until the last work year (2014) when I got prostate cancer, had surgery and then needed...

    What do Californians (and the rest) think of AUMA?

    It's so easy to throw out baseless, cynical and accusatory comments these days in the age of anonymous Internet forums. Heaven forbid that public servants might actually be intent on serving the public, as compared to greedy entrepreneurs willing to cut corners in pursuit of profit, but who...

    Does a product containing high thc but low thca still need to be decarb?

    The THCa in your sample is very small and when decarboxylated it converts at a ratio of about 85%. 85% of 0.84 is 0.71. If you are vaping the oil the remaining THCa will be converted to THC. If cooking: "240° F for 60 minutes should be enough to decarboxylate any cannabis with a reasonably low...
