WEED, The Official Thread

[Harry]

Are there many older stoners who now prefer edibles to smoking?

I am 60 and my hand is raised.

I am 60 and my hand is raised.

I can see the convenience aspect of it... also no more dope burns on your shirts and jackets

Count me in too and my friend Cath (both over 50 but not yet 60).

I haven't gone 100% edibles. I do enjoy vaping which is much cleaner than combusting.

Edit: Clarification - I vape concentrates not flower.

[SkiBall]

Managing your high and maybe if one only wants to take a little edge off is easier with edibles imo. Guess that applies to everyone, but maybe more so with older peeps.

It has a significantly longer duration as well (at least for me) - and I'm rarely *completely* surprised by the effects... which tends to happen occasionally the old fashioned way.

In the first year legal here in CO it was like roulette with some companies. One time 30mg of a chocolate was a mild buzz, the next time you'd think they'd snuck shrooms in the package. Sometimes it was fun but walking into my in-laws feeling like I'd just downed an 1/8 of boomers when I was expecting a mellow buzz did not make for a fun Friday night.

Ahhh... the good ol' days. Had a mate that made brownies like that.

That shit still happens to me when I’m in CO. Was there for business a few weeks ago. Drop of that decarbed oil, (tiny drop...half the size of a small grain of rice), in an afternoon coffee. Thought I was melting. I’ve walked into Dead shows in my youth tripping my face off and had a more settling, comfy experience. 3.5 hrs, two showers, probably 25k steps pacing through the hotel and at least a gallon of water into the buzz, I finally started enjoying myself.
Ate 5mg gummy the following evening....nothing for a few hours. Then, went to bed and got power baked. Got up. Settled in around 2 hours after that with a double order of wings and a burger and fries from room service.
Fast forward to a week ago. Wife and kids out for the day. Left me with house chores. Neighbor gives me a 10mg gummy from the same company I had in CO a couple weeks prior. Figured, what the hell. I’ll give edibles one last chance. Munched it around 9:30 am. Had a nice , mellow buzz by 10:30. More or less went away besides the typical tiredness, around 1:30. Buzz was more in tune to vaping/combusting than what I usually experience with eating weed.

Still puzzled on the edible thing. I will do another round of scientific testing next time I work in CO.

Tell me more, please.

MA is off and running and the mayor of Northhampton make the first purchase. Classic.

[Bobby Stainless]

Northhampton has a great place for breakfast called Sylvesters.

[Gcooker]

Like, if there was a pill that could make me feel drunk, I'd still prefer drinking for the social and overall ambience that comes with the activity and buzz. Are there many older stoners who now prefer edibles to smoking?

Mix some clean GHB with a nice booze free drink and you'll have all the drunkness you can handle with no hangover.
I love edibles, nice body stone and very social if dosed correctly.

I miss being able to roofie myself.

Met Jimmy, who owns this company, at a hemp convention in Reno, schwerty. I think this stuff helps.

Interesting. What kind of erl are you using? Sorry if it’s been covered already

Espresso & Durban Poison

The Entourage Effect

[Bobby Stainless]

Eating cannabis in any way has too much of a narcotic buzz for me.

I save it for hangovers or when I cant sleep. I wouldn't be able to function well starting first thing in the AM.

Ill eat 20-30mgs and up to 100 depending on how locked I want to get.

Vapes, doobs, and dabs before 7pm though.

[Fritz]

^^^yeah that’s why this is appealing to me. I just didn’t think that you could ingest concentrate like that for some reason. Will have to give it a shot. Love the Durban for day weed.
