Individuality and effects and strains - O MY

I’ve heard this but unfortunately can’t lend credence as edibles do nothing for me, therefore I smoke joints like a madman . Literally

MIND BLOWN.

I am going to sit at your feet and learn.

Where do you recommend I begin? Any particular Frenchy video?

My grow will become hash that I eat…

Thank you!!!

@TopShelfTrees1 You can reset your tolerance! Follow the Sulak Method

When you break your cannabis fast come back with an edible rather than a joint and see if it hits. Be sure, of course, that the brand is reputable and there is actually THC in there.

I can recommend the brand Matter which sells capsules and tincture. The one called “Blue” is excellent. 20:1 THC:CBD. Dispensary item (I’m an MMJ patient).

I will definitely check this out, very interesting in fact. Thank you for the link and the idea :bulb: this would be amazing

It’s an absolutely scientifically grounded protocol. It will work because our endocannabinoid receptors are homeostatically regulated. By taking a cannabis fast for 48 hours (including two full sleep cycles - sleep is key! And possibly when the resetting is most intense)… you reprogram (upregulate) the production of endocannabinoid receptors. Conversely when your system is over saturated with cannabis you downregulate your endocannabinoid receptors.

The medicinal or therapeutic window for cannabis is much,’much lower that most people think. If you’re managing tolerance with regular resets, you don’t need much cannabis to feel the effects.

I think of it in sex terms. You have to tease your endocannabiniid system with a bit of old fashioned “absence makes the heart grow fonder.” That keeps the relationship very hot. Fire hot.

Forgive the pontification!

Some people lack the ability to get any effect from ingested cannabis due to liver enzymes. Any effect will be personal in nature, as the human experience is singular.

That’s a problem with the weed, not the individual. Quality herb is objective in effect.

It’s like saying water affects people differently. No. Dirty water affects people differently. Clean water affects everyone the same. “Dirty water” wasn’t the standard until 15 years ago. Earthy used to mean wood resins. Now guys saying earthy are talking salty umami meat weed… If your weed is salty, or meaty or umami… If your weed makes mouths water instead of dry up… Maybe one person out of 100 would tolerate that 15 years ago. And you’d laugh at him for buying the fuct up weed you were going to throw away. Now it’s called “subjective” when people are sold bad weed lol.

I’m sorry this will be offensive, but the definition of objective and subjective…
subjective means it’s a personal experience.
objective means it’s not. So if I were a machine, and checking for thc content, that would be objective. But instead, I am a human, experiencing things in my mind.

I just straight up eat the decarbed bud.
I cut it up with scissors into the pot I decarb with.
Decarb and let cool, eating half a teaspoon is enough for me.
No need for all that effort of making hash, unless you prefer it, but I find it harder to dose.
Much easier to go overboard. :sweat_smile:
When eating it straight, the fiber that is still there makes it a little more slow release and even keeled.
I eat it in the morning and I’m good all day long. :slight_smile:

What’s your point?

Is it dispensary weed = bad?

Is it grower’s tastes have changed and you don’t agree with their pollution of some virgin gene pool?

If someone wants to smell umami, who cares, let them, the wine world is full of foolish things too.

If anything this homogenization (which I think is your complaint, apart from boron) will lead people towards more interesting things. Like craft beer.

Huh! That sounds even better.

Do you literally chew and swallow dried bud or do you put it in peanut butter or something.

Chew and swallow.
The batch I’m eating now tastes like grilled cheese and strawberry. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

@Rogue Do you have a harvest and preparation protocol you can share?

It’s as simple as it sounds.

  • Harvest and take the leaves away that don’t have trichromes, you can make tea with them, add to a salad or soup, or return them to the soil.
  • Dry for two weeks, I don’t measure humidity or anything, just hang them somewhere in your house, or put them in a paper bag, that’ll work fine too.
  • Take a pair of scissors and cut the bud up into small pieces into a pot.
  • Decarb “sous vide”, anywhere between 2 to 3 hours. Start with small batches to figure out what you like best.
  • Eat 1/3rd or 1/2 of a teaspoon. Or more, as much as you can handle when you have a serious illness or something.

One half liter jar will last me 3-4 months when it’s a potent cultivar.

A little water condensation may form on the inside of the lid.
Good to check after the first 10 minutes or so and wipe it off.

You can also decarb fresh bud in case of emergency, then you’ll have to wipe the condensation from the inside of the lid every 10 minutes or so. (Maybe crumpling a brown paper bag or sheet of paper into a ball and throwing it in the pot on top of the bud, might absorb all that condensation and make things easier, haven’t tried that yet.)
The taste may not be as pleasant and you can end up with bud that’s still damp even after 3 hours. Then you just put it in a paper bag for a couple of days before jarring it.

It will last years, but keep in mind the THC will keep transforming into CBN very slowly, so it will become a bit more sedative over time. Effects will change slightly just like when curing.

Heartfelt thanks for the detailed protocol and photos.

If this is so simple and effective, what is the benefit of going through the process of making hash?

The benefit is that hash is wonderful :+1:
