WEED, The Official Thread

[digitaldeath]

ok ok

ive cunted the thread....... i accept 35% responsibility

[Buster Highmen]

the difference is the system is no longer inheritable, the boomers sold it to ..........................guess who ..........the fascist corptocracy

The boomers never owned "it". But they did do a wee bit of rioting, getting shot, teargassed, kidnapping the children of the "establishment" and telling the "man" to fuck off. The OWS was a decent attempt too. But the roots of the LMM are in the boomers.

But cleaving along some simplistic age boundary didn't do it then and it doesn't do it now.

another difference is the ease with which information/communications are disseminated

Yes?

today is a good day

[ICEHOCEY77]

Yeah, I don't know shit about WA, but I would hope and assume that they are not assbackwards like the dry counties and towns in the South. Next local vote may change some of those towns over.

Side note on the South...a guy I do business with lives in a dry county in Alabama. The recently changed and are no longer dry, so a local store starts selling beer. The cops come in a bust them for selling cold beer because apparently the law states warm only or non refrigerated maybe...I don't know the wording. Classic.

Oxford, MS used to be like that. The former mayor owned the ice machine business in town.

let's all take a lap together @4:20.

Cheers to Oregon & the rest

Thanks, that will help smooth it out. I cough more on the o-pen than the wax coil though, go figure

[NoPostholio]

This article parses out the DC quagmire and larger issues well - digitaldeath should read this in educational training for pnw
Took solace in this part -

"To nullify the measure, Congress would have to take the extraordinary step of getting both chambers and the president to agree on a resolution of disapproval within 60 days."

No established safety protocols - lol

"The federal government, in return, argues that there isn't enough evidence to prove marijuana has medical value. A 2006 Health and Human Services review of marijuana's schedule found several barriers to rescheduling it: no studies proved the drug's medical efficacy in controlled, large-scale clinical environments; no studies established adequate safety protocols for marijuana; and marijuana's full chemical structure has never been characterized and analyzed."

[TBS]

So with legalization in the great state of Oregon I'm setting up a personal grow. Got most of the setup figured out, except for what strain to grow first. Looking for something that has a nice energetic head high, yields reasonably well and tolerant of rookie grower mistakes.

Recommendations?

[Bobby Stainless]

I would go with a hybrid of some kind.

Sativas are going to flower forever, and pure indica can be a bit touchy.

Female cuts would be the easiest, but there are plenty of Seed purveyors out there.

Gage Green Genetics has some awesome gear.

Just like tobacco, you will not hear about the potentially ill effects of combustion for many years.

I am not implying cancer, but tar is the same when you combust, and even worse.

You seriously think the general medical field will drop out and say, "yeah, smoke a joint, it will not hurt you at all"....?

[NoPostholio]

For real? You think the jury is still out on whether it helps or hurts? I bet there are more than a few peeps on here that are as fit / more fit cardio wise as an abstainer. Have not seen many ill side effects from long time use in many people. I think the 3500 year trial period substantiates this somewhat
And numerous govts have conducted many studies in past 150 years with not one identifying a specific chronic problem.
The fascists want you to believe different -

Can't fully rule this out as causing the late winter, so.. um, I smoked overpriced ($40-1g) Thai brick weed recently. It was a tough situation and other more desirable product was unavailable. Apologies for smoking the brick weed, though I did enjoy the sweet taste. And irony of lighting a bowl of germinated, crudely grown and harvested bud with an edipure lighter

Either you are missing my point completely, or trying to ignore the obvious...you post a tincture herbolgy partial dissertation, of which I agree completely, but your reference has no mention of COMBUSTION. Tinctures of Cannabis have been used with no negative effects, as well, eating huge amounts does not SEEM to do any harm....I doubt there ever will be a cancer or death associated with those two methods.

However, Tar, and all the related diseases associated with any combustion exposure, exists. To say otherwise is completely and utterly Moranic. Who cares that 1%-5% have no symptoms ( peeps) when everyone else will? Again, Moranic.

"Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the most common lung diseases. It makes it difficult to breathe. There are two main forms of COPD: Chronic bronchitis, which involves a long-term cough with mucus; Emphysema, which involves destruction of the lungs over time .

Most people with COPD have a combination of both conditions.

Causes

Smoking is the main cause of COPD. The more a person smokes, the more likely that person will develop COPD.

In rare cases, nonsmokers who lack a protein called alpha-1 antitrypsin can develop emphysema.

Emphysema

Other risk factors for COPD are:

Exposure to certain gases or fumes in the workplace
Exposure to heavy amounts of secondhand smoke and pollution
Frequent use of cooking fire without proper ventilation"

Do you need a care package?

[buttahflake]

Do you need a care package?

yes please.
need some cartridges for my o-pen.
pm please

But not quite as moronic as moranic is -
The snippet I provided did not relate to tinctures as much as historical reference. I would tend to agree that if people smoked weed in the volume of cigarettes, there would most likely be more specific issues related to lungs. Smoking one or two packs a day is like burning through half a zip - nobody does that. For a majority of MJ smokers who might have large airway symptoms due to mostly smoke irritation and mucous buildup, numerous studies have indicated no small airway damage. Most people that smoke weed habitually and then stop for a period of time seem to have little in the way of chronic lung issues.

This is a long read but very interesting results, albeit with a small sample size - and not directly related to lung function.

Don't open if you don't want to be shown huge buds, talk about vaporizers, or lament the cheap prices we have here in Colorado.

Magic Flight Launch box is the best invention after inventing fire. I don't have to "smoke", my asthma is under control, and I am baked off a small pinch.

[/QUOTE
grampa's tool now since the concentrate revolution.

I am old school pipe and flower material. I've checked out the pen's and dabs before, but cannot go that route. (Not sure about the THC extraction process either...)

I am looking for something less harsh on the throat and lungs. It needs to be small and effective. I think a small vaporizer is my path forward. Is this one a good way to go? Any other recommendations? Sorry for the newb questions...

There are many small handheld vaporizers now on the market. Lots of members here have evolved away from the Magic Flight (shown above), as it is very primitive and feels like you are smoking crack with the glass tube.

Check out the website, fuckcombustion.com lots of info and once you narrow down a few, it will help before you pull the trigger.

If you are in a green state, the best route is oil, as the vaporization process is much more "pure". If not, any of the fresh herb vaporizers will give you the results you are in search of.

1. tons of people smoke a quarter+ OZ a day. Remember, you do develop a tolerance and must use more to achieve the same perspective.

2. Do you have a reference for this information? I would love to read it. The basic outline of chronic lung disease that I quoted mentions the timeframe for development, and the potential for healing.......which leads to.......

3.Once the small airways develop symptoms, the reversal by quitting is much harder.
