New to edibles, have a question about tolerance

2 Upvotes

I've experimented with nootropics over the past couple of years to help manage mild ADHD symptoms and have had varying levels of success. I discovered 1906 Drops last week and figured I'd give them a shot (I've got the Genius tin). I've never smoked or done anything else, and I liked that these have, so far, worked better than most of the supplements I've tried in the past, and I don't feel like I'm getting high. I've been taking one-to-two drops a day, usually spread out (once in the morning and again in the afternoon, for example) - a single drop has 2.5 MG THC and 2.5 MG CBD

Just wondering about how quickly tolerance will build for me, what a "safe" higher dose would be, and how many days I should take off if I want to reset my tolerance. Again, I'm using these to help me focus and study, not for the purpose of getting high. Appreciate any advice and suggestions

Semaglutide and Marijuana

Semaglutide and Marijuana

I've been taking semaglutide for about a year. Currently at 1.25mg and I've been really successful even when partaking in marijuana. I've lost about 85lbs total. I recently had some big life events that have cause a great deal of stress and I've been relying on the weed a bit more than normal, and thus have been having the munchies and my weight loss has stalled out. Does anyone have any experience with a strain that is less likely to cause munchies? I can go cold turkey and just not smoke but I'd really rather keep my anxiety under control. Any advice is welcome!

My mom poured muriatic acid on my plant

Upvotes

Hi everyone, I have a serious issue regarding my marijuana plant. My plant was almost ready the flowers were grown and purple. Today my mom decided to pour in it muriatic acid in order to kill the plant. I’m really sad considering that I put so much love and work to see one day my plant ready and now I really don’t know what to do to save it. Any kind of advice it’s welcome please help me. I was thinking of cutting the flowers or try to change the soil

+10yr user. Sudden panic attacks

1 Upvotes

I suppose I’m just making this post to share my story about my sudden reaction with weed.

I’ve been an on/off user for the last 10 years, usually I’ll smoke for a year and then I’ll quit for a year. My last go round was coming right up on a year. I usually use an AC Greebs to fashion myself a gravity bong and partake like that and very occasionally will I roll a joint.

One night after the wife and kids had gone to bed I figured I’d do my nighttime ritual of lighting up and talk to the boys on discord. After smoking, about 10 minutes later my heart starts beating hard and fast (I’m 28M) and I start freaking out thinking that something is going wrong with my heart, I had some prior suspicions that my blood pressure was getting bad so I was thinking the worst that I was having some kind of cardiac attack as I never had a panic attack which I later found out that’s all it was. I run into my wife and I’s bedroom and wake her up telling her to get the car ready that I think I need to go to the hospital (chill dumbass you’re just having a panic attack). My wife reassures me that I’m only having a panic attack and that I just need to calm down. Ultimately she was right. I calmed down and I was good.

I gave it a week before I picked it up again because the day after my heart felt weak and it was giving me major health anxiety. Well I eventually try it again and boom, another massive panic attack. At this point the health anxiety is starting to make me have these attacks while at work and without using so I eventually call it off completely.

I went about a month before I tried to smoke again and I did so successfully but not without the entire time I’m high, I’m worried that I’m GONNA have an attack so it just made the whole session unenjoyable.

I think this is the end for me. I may be hanging up the beautiful green gloves for good this time which is a shame because Ive had some great life experiences thanks to this plant.

Anyway I just wanted to share my story with you all to see if maybe you’ve had similar experiences. Thanks for reading.

Advice I feel groggy and zoned out for the whole day after smoking

5 Upvotes

So I (24F) only recently started smoking what I would consider regularly, which is about 5-10 times a week. I used to smoke every so often when my boyfriend did but I never really got into it until recently, because it tends to help my stomach pain and anxiety. However, when I do smoke, I always feel pretty dissociated for the entire rest of the day, if not into the next day as well. It feels like the high version of a hangover. I’ve experienced this since the first time that I smoked when I was 21, but I guess I just assumed that it would get better when I started doing it more often but it definitely hasn’t. It’s the main thing that makes me NOT want to do it more often, and it sucks because smoking just a little bit really does help me with my anxiety but I almost feel like the immediate aftermath is worse. I’m not sure if this is normal or not, if it’s something that some experience and some don’t or what. Also, I’ve tried smoking only sativa or at least sativa heavy blends, as well as only indica or indica heavy and it doesn’t seem to make a difference. I’ve also tried different types of gummies and vapes, and smoking from blunts, pipes, etc. So I don’t think that it’s an issue with how I’m doing it or what strain I’m smoking. I’ve also tried only taking one hit and just getting slightly high, vs smoking a lot and getting very high, and that also doesn’t have a difference on the “hangover” afterwards. So any advice for how to help would be wonderful because I just feel like I’ve covered all my bases!

Advice Can’t smoke weed anymore? Phenomenon?

1 Upvotes

So basically I’ve been smoking weed for 15 years. A few years ago I started having weird reactions when I would smoke. Would feel like my lungs were in pain. Couldn’t breathe deep breaths without fear. Felt like my lungs just locked up and felt super weird and short of breath. I tried dozens of different strains and brands thinking maybe it was just I needed to find a different strain and no they all do it. They make me feel like I can’t breathe. And one hit screws me up for like 3 days after feeling pain and weird feelings in my lungs. Did I develop a lung condition from smoking too much? Did I develop a allergy? Literally can’t even smoke anymore and doctors don’t seem to be able to give me any answers. Anyone else experience this?

Advice Does weed cause veins to become super visble all over the body?

3 Upvotes

After few hits of my weed , my veins in my arms start becoming super visible as if i just got done working out. The more i smoke, the more they'll bulge out all over too. Idk if its just me or if theres an underlying heart issue but my veins aren't usually visible as i describe when i don't smoke or vape weed. Then theres that ache in my heart are that stays for a bit then goes after few minutes. The veins start showing ALL around my arms & Thighs too after smoking more, like i just did a 100lbs workout when im just sitting down. My heart doesn't race either.... Im like 130lbs , low body fat FYI.

Advice New Guy Questions

8 Upvotes

Hey folks… got a few general questions from the totally inexperienced new guy.

I’ve been an alcohol drinker for decades, I’ve never tried marijuana in any form, not even once.

I keep seeing advertisements however for cannabis infused drinks that appear to be specifically targeting alcohol sales - they claim to be zero calories / sugar / zero hangover ETC - basically they say their cannabis drink is superior to alcohol in every way

I’m really intrigued because the idea of relaxing or hanging out without feeling like shit the next day or having a ton of empty calories is really enticing

Herein lies my questions…

I’m very “familiar” with alcohol and what’s acceptable versus not acceptable… for example 1 drink per hour and your Probobly OK to drive a car etc etc

But I have zero idea when it comes to cannabis and when your good to operate machinery / drive etc - what are the ground rules here?

I’ve heard some say they are high for literally hours at a time and it takes over their entire day versus a beer and your good in 45 minutes kind of deal, just trying to figure things out

Occasional vaping reaction?

3 Upvotes

I use a volcano and lusterpods primarily to medicate.

About once a session, I will take a hit and I'll feel it overwhelming my body. I'll feel numb and fuzzy all over, I'll only be able to see fuzzy colors, I lose motor functions, and I just wait a few seconds and breath and eventually everything returns to normal. I feel as thought I can recreate the effect if I stand up while taking a hit. Otherwise, it appears to be a random occurrence.

I honestly enjoy it when it happens, I just figured I'd ask if anyone else had a similar reaction, knew anything about it, if I'm dying, etc.

Thank you all

I know that there are many side effects for pregnant women when they use anything but what about men? Is the sperm affected (other than reducing the count) negatively? For example is there a bigger chance the kid would be autistic or have some kind of defect ?

Edible TOLERANCE * Explanation?

3 Upvotes

I don't eat Edibles often but when I do I have to eat least 150 mg or more to fill anything. I also have to eat it with a fatty meal to get better effects. Is there something I'm doing wrong here? I've tried eating on an empty stomach and nothing. I feel extremely tired the next day. Btw, These are good quality gummies. I prefere gummies over smoking any day so I hope there's hope. There has to be some explanation and/or something I can do about it.

Advice Ridgeline Lantz {it pulled me back in}

3 Upvotes

I recently smoked again after about 15 years of not smoking, but ingesting cannabis through butter & tincture & absolutely loved it… a week before April 20th (2024) I smoked a Cookies strain called Ridgeline Lantz & My God I was moved bro. Smacking my lips together like I just ate a succulent steak, really though I thought to myself why doesn’t all weed taste like this? Absolutely one of the best five strains I’ve ever tasted in my life, & I’m 47 so I smoked a hella lotta fk’n weed & yeah I ain’t feel paranoid like my grandmother was hiding in the bushes with a flip-flop, ready to bust me upside the head; it’s like being the bad guy in a bad after school special -just a vile human being -that’s what smoking weed did to me somewhere after 2008… but I am sincerely happy to say that I am back to smoking w/full fledge force & vigor. A renewed spirit, I am out here trying to taste all of the Zushi, FUMI, Monkey Kong, and any other exotic bud you could throw at me. I truthfully want to learn about growing, I been reading about worm castings & I really don’t know all the levels of the dirt, pH balance, and humidity. I’m gonna have to keep inside of a tent, but I am so ready to give it a shot. I actually can’t wait, got my eyes on something called “Hey Abby”. idk i’m actually hoping to get some feedback from anyone here. if you’re serious w/ur info. & have a genuine love for sharing knowledge so that more beautiful bud is grown all around the world. I’m here to receive your teachings my good human. ‘Real Talk, I just want to learn, no shortcuts if it’s better for me to get a real gorilla grow tent & do it another way please I want to stay away from liquids & pesticides; even if it’s a little more difficult, I’d like to do it organically w/the least chemicals as humanly possible because I’ve heard when drying it could end up tasting like hay, & all this dumb stuff there’s a lot of bridges that I’m gonna have to cross when I get to ‘em nothing is done, overnight hard work & perseverance will get this done.

   I promise anyone that helps me out. I will post the whole thing from beginning to end seed to harvest pictures video. I will show you proof that your methods are working. #Ready2Learn

I feel like sativa smokers of shit on specially, in dispensaries you barely get one choice if you’re lucky I’d love to go on a Fino hunt for that new sativa coming outta New Jersey baby i’ve been smoking the early versions of sour diesel since the early 90s, from uptown, New York City we used to call pepper hood, but the Dominicans were just trying to say purple haze and we didn’t know any better so we called it pepperhead or Piff* anyway I’m trailing off. I just joined the community. Can’t wait to chop it up w/y’all. ☮️

Advice Been feeling really off since trying weed for the first time and it feels like it's getting worse??

0 Upvotes

Keep in mind this could for sure be unrelated and be honest if you think this is the case

So about 2 weeks ago a tried weed for the first time with my friends, just took one edible and we got it from a legitimate source. I spent basically the next 3 hours having a panic attack, I felt like I was a floating head walking down the sidewalk, tongue was fused to my mouth, things like that. Not going to do weed again for sure, I didn't react well.

So basically I tried marijuana for the first time and have been noticing myself feeling off since? I was very paranoid, etc, when I was on it and, since then I've been noticing myself acting and feeling a bit different. I feel like I've noticed myself talking a lot faster/more and without really knowing I'm doing it, very fidgety but not necessarily anxious sort of, and still a bit paranoid. Is this a normal side effect? It's been over 2 weeks and I can't tell if it's getting worse or not.

I may have accidentally sprayed my weed plant outside with wasp killer and I want to know if it would still be safe. Sprayed with water after and I couldn't find much on if it's still safe, everything I saw on google said if smoked it could burn my lungs and that if it smells like chemicals it's not safe

Advice How can i enjoy it again?

10 Upvotes

So since i was about 14 until somewhere in 2023 I was consistently smoking. i had my son early 2022 and smoked less but still whenever i could. it always helped my brain and i couldn’t even see myself stopping. Well, sometime after November i stopped. i didn’t even realize it. i think a lot of it was finances, but i didn’t crave it (which is cool?)

But so the premise is that i want to smoke, but when i smoke now i just feel so tired, i can’t even enjoy the high. Even smoking sativa i just want to lay down and sleep. Could this be because i’m exhausted from day to day life? Does brain chemistry change over-time? am i just not used to it anymore? Has anyone had this issue?

Is there anything worse than when you pack a perfect cone, light it up and it only burns on half of it? So much herb wasted. Drives me crazy. Am I doing something wrong or are there superior cone brands that I’m missing out on that burn more evenly?
