    Now that pot is legal in a few places....

    Do you think there will be an emerging market for cheap, low thc sativa blends that don't blow your fucking head off?


    I haven't smoked in decades, really. But I could see occasionally puffing on the kind of weed we smoked 20-30 years ago in the desert, playing/listening to music, or doing tedious work. (Trail building, anyone?)

    Thing is, I HATE what high grade pot does. I think too hard, can't speak, and just want to go and hide.

    Haven't thought about this in a long time.

    Maybe don't roll up a fatty next time?

    Something about the wrinkle in your forehead tells me there's a fit about to get thrown
    And I never hear a single word you say when you tell me not to have my fun
    It's the same old shit that I ain't gonna take off anyone.
    and I never had a shortage of people tryin' to warn me about the dangers I pose to myself.

    I think I am interested in such low thc, they don't even sell it. Kinda like a 3.2 beer for herb.

    God, last time I smoked anything, (6 yrs, maybe?) I took less than a 'polite' toke, and was basically tripping. Hated it.

    I'm with you. I love the way good pot smells and tastes but I'm too much of a lightweight to actually smoke it. One little toke and I can't even tie my shoes any more.

    A couple years ago a guy bought a bucket of clippings from his friend's grow op on a camping trip. Said friend was growing the good shit but I thought the leaves and clippings from that were perfect. Still tasted pretty good and gave you a nice mellow high without making you catatonic.

    No problem. Wait until you are introduced to the wonderful world of edibles. No smoke, measured amounts, longer buzz. Nice.

    Don't like edibles - takes too long to feel the effect, can't tell how high you're getting 'til it's too late. The effects of smoking are damn near immediate.

    someone gave a friend some chocolate chip & weed cookies. Ate a couple and after about an hour I was so high I felt sick for half the day.

    I'd rather take a couple of pipe hits then eat a whole bag of regular cookies.

    I think this is an idea that even regulars can get behind. So does it exist?

    Seriously? Edibles are fucking crazy highly dosed for anyone who doesn't regularly partake. Every time I have them I take less than a quarter of the recommended dose and I'm out of my head for a long, long time. Last weekend at a concert, one of the people I went with who doesn't smoke a ton ate a half of a cookie and puked two songs into the first set (hadn't drank anything at all - was just way too high). I've learned to just stay away, you can't tell how much you're taking in until it's too late.

    Just smoke less. Seriously. If less than a "polite" toke gets you too high, try just tearing off a tiny leaf off of a bud, and take a 1/16th size hit. An eighth will last you a couple years from the sounds of it.

    I don't think you could even find ditch weed here in JH if you wanted it, let alone go buy it in a store. That's pretty much what I am asking for...what are you, high?

    I'm with the OP. Less is often more. I do miss clipping a few top leaves off the stunted, pre (aka never) budding backyard bushes. Put some color into messing around in the garage on a fine summer morning or watching the fireflies dance in the dark along the trail. Pretty sure they will market the low grade leaves after getting top dollar for the pampered buds. But then government is an ass.

    Thing is, I like the taste & smell. If I could load up a bowl of some sticky buds and just have a nice smoke without getting totally blown away that would be fantastic. Don't know if it's possible to grow sweet sticky buds that are low THC but if it is, I'd buy it.

    Or, like Wooley says - just sell me a bag of clippings off the good stuff. I'd be happy to burn a fatty of that.

    Brown seedy shit tastes like, well, shit. no thanks.

    Not a big fan of edibles. They seem weak. I'd be waiting for it to kick in and...meh. I lived in Ned for quite a while, so not like they didn't know how to make them.

    Jeez, mew mew mew. It's friggin THC edibles. On the low end of ingested drugs. It won't kill you. I could tell you stories from the seventies. Half the time you didn't even know what somebody just handed you.

    Listen, it's all clearly labelled. I know, at first you may have to OD a little, just to figure it all out, but, like I said, it won't put you in the hospital. Just, like, put on some raggae and, like, chill. dude. Maybe they have the right idea in Amsterdam. The edibles are quite mild doses in a slice of pound cake. I mean, to get really ripped, you'll gain five pounds, eventually. The stuff you find in Colorado medicine shops is quite, er, strong.


    edit: Oh, uh, and, the best thing about edibles is that it can be stored and will travel well without detection, if taken out of official wrappings. Kinda hard to toke up at the airport or in the middle of Paris.

    Combustion fucks up dose control, try vaporization .

    Also, you can get weed ( Sativa rather than an a Indica) that will NOT induce "couch lock", and help you get work done. Here in Colorado, the MMJ industry does a good job of growing the Sativa's that help you work, rather than helps you sleep. It takes almost double the time to grow it, but is well worth it.

    Edibles are digested differently and when you eat them, it produces an even more potent form of THC, so I have read. I hate eating them as of now.

    It's an apothecary nowadays. Tell them how you like to smoke and feel, and they've got weed to match.
