So if you partake whats your main strain?

I always thought I was a bit of a stoner back in the day, and Im finding Im doing extremely well if I microdose hemp flower through the day. Im enjoying multiple strains and love that you can find strains that are multi-symptom-specific. I never knew beyond a few strains in my youth.

Just tried some some Skywalker OG hemp flower, and I can only imagine how it would translate to the real shit... but damn even this knocks down the stomach pain and nauseous I can get from fasting, as well as the chronic pain in my left leg, BUT it doesn't make me too sleepy LOL or it hasn't yet

The Maui Wowie, Grand Daddy Purp, Pink Runtz, and Skywalker OG, a few others. So far only downside it reeks, but it's a much better experience with buds instead of vaping, hits me differently, whereas vapes seem to creep up on me regardless of the strain. This washes over me, loosens up my neck and shoulders, lower back, then down my aching legs and feet.

You do develop a tolerance, and it's not too long-lasting, but I rarely need OTC pain meds anymore, and headaches that used to be an issue are gone.

Lately, Ive had pain in the left side and intermittent nausea, especially in the morning

Its nice that it eases you into your morning, a cup of java and a joint work better than coffee and a cigarette...

3 years worth of orders Im partial to the White Widow, King Louis XIII Green Crack Maui Wowie
Its possible Ill miss these "faux weed" hemp strains by December

Back in the day (incoming Boomer story) when an ounce of weed was $10 a lid, allowance money and taking pop bottles back to the store to cash in the refund was enough to get me through high (high) school.

A few years later came the joy of breaking up an entire fresh kilo into a huge industrial size pile on the kitchen table with specialty strains like Maui Wowie, Acapulco Gold etc. and things like hash and Thai sticks starting to become available for folks with money to burn and good connections.

Spent a good part of my life waking and baking. Wasn't a big deal just part of life. Picture is of me is at 19 from a scanned old Polaroid grabbing a few last minute little bong hits before heading off to work.

In more recent times after medical things were legalized here, had a friend with a card who managed to scoop up all the deals from multiple dispenseries. I could get 2 or 3 ounces at a time from him, usually Jack Herer because that's what he liked but I was never too picky but did prefer hybrids or sativa to indica mostly.

Between around 2017 to 2021-2, I was an active patron of the local neighborhood dive bar and got introduced to cartridges that nobody seemed to mind you hit whenever desired so that was cool to be hanging with friends and passing pens around or go out on the patio and share some flower. Can't remember strains too much but sour diesel comes to mind. Got flower from my friends too but not sure what it was?

With the advent of fancy commercial weed and with recreational legal here for several years, it may be heretical to say but I kind of miss some of the ritual involved with old school generic ditch weed. Stems and stick and seeds and the cleaning and prep process to roll an acceptable doob seem to have become a lost art form?

I quit going to the bars about 2022 so my easy access and social connections for scoring dried up and my consumption dropped off a cliff. My last cartridge died and the flower I did have and obtained after has been heavily rationed. I've got about two bowls left.

There's about 4 dispenseries within 10 minutes of my house and I don't know if I'm just too lazy to go, think it is too weird to be buying from a store or I'm just intimidated by the process? Seems like you have to be an expert and are overwhelmed with choices?

It's on my agenda though. I want something perky, something creative, something euphoric, something focused and something sleepy, some flower and some fresh carts for my pens. Looks like several multiple trips and at least couple burned Benjamins are in my future?

$10-20 a lid? Damn

It was 8-10 times on my timeline in the 80s, if we got an 80 buck ounce BITD, it was Alabama ditch weed. But hell, looking back, no doubt half the time we were smoking hemp.


Nowadays, I prefer flower over carts, and I prefer dry herb vaporizing even with a level one rig, though I have my favorite pipe too, and I even like the Nano Twist in a pinch, and my dugout one-hitter.

Have become a believer in terpenes and their boiling point. Green Crack is my favorite cart, but White Widow and Maui Wowie bud hits right feel like the old-time nostalgic high.

out of the old school strains, I might have come across 5-6 of them at most, with Skunk, Jamaican, and Guatemalan being the majority
Columbian, Acapulco Gold, and Maui Wowie were rare, once every couple of years if that.
