    Does cannabis use lead to more or fewer psychoses? Science is just not clear on that.

    (I renamed the thread. The first version should imitate click bait, wasn't happy with it) from a famous german talk show: Dr. Guest*: “There are some beautiful studies that show that if young people between the ages of 15 and 16 smoke weed just five times, they have a three-fold increased...

    Switched from smoking to vaporizing. Some things are still unclear to me.

    Dear community, Last week I finally switched from smoking weed to vaporizing it. I have been smoking for almost 20 years, joints and normal cigarettes. Because some bronchitis like problems occurred, I had to stop smoking at all. After a week of not inhaling smoke, I have to say that I'm...

    Why does cannabis work so well? We all have an Endocannabinoid system. Must Watch Video!

    Everyone needs to know this stuff! We have been doing a ton of research on our body's endocannabinoid system. We could rattle on and try to explain how cannabinoids in cannabis align with our natural endocannabinoid system - and we could throw out some terminology like CB1 and CB2 receptors...

    Safety of vape components

    So I currently own an Air, Iq, Cloud Evo, and a plenty (which I rarely use now); omni vap is my next investment. My current concern is the safety and risk factor of some of the materials used in those vapes. The air has a rubber ring that holds the stem. The IQ has a silicone gasket and ring...

    How vaping changed the type of Hashish I consume.

    I live in London UK. Living in Europe we get quite a bit of Hash. When I was very young, what was named Soap Bar was widely popular. It was essentially a hard block of Henna that vaguely resembled hash, often containing bits of plastic bin bag. You had to torch the stuff to get it too crumble...

    Life Insurance for Medical users who don't combust?

    This is my first time starting a thread but I could not find any discussion on this. I am frustrated by the fact that my insurance company classifies me as a "smoker" because I vaporize cannabis. My health is the best it has ever been since I started this habit 5 years ago and has...
