Autoblueberry for anxiety?

[CraftyApe]

I have a new girl moved in and she has bad anxiety issues and I know of some of the normal photoperiod strains that would be well grand for helping to treat her issues. Some of the best are the ones from DJ Short. Well my intent is to run some normal meds for her but I like the notion of being able to find an auto that might help. So my thought was the auto blueberry from . The stuff I have on hand is good for pain patients and I have treated one of the other girls for her nightmares with some of the heavier indica that will make for a dream free sleep but I dont have anything auto that is suited to the anxiety.

Thoughts and or notions? Alternatives?

Cheers

How long are you letting your auto's go for ?

How do you determine time to harvest ?

Hiya S_a_H,

It depends on the strain. The ones that I am growing out for the pain sufferers I let go till nearly all amber. For the auto Great White Shark that would be for 9+ weeks. Very good meds for an auto. A little longer for the Auto poison dwarf and it makes good meds also.

For my own consumption I tend to chop at 7ish weeks. Quarter amber. But to be frank I recently made the transition to hydro from soil. So I have not run enough out to see how the time for harvest will be effected in the long term.

What are you thinking?

I suffer from anxiety and I find Bluestreak to be a nice mood lifter without any anxiety. MasterLow is a nice easy mellow strain for me also. I don't think either one is available...but you might get some help in that area...

Anything with Blueberry in it usually has a nice mellow calming buzz with good body euphoria and less of an intense racy "mind high". Some more sativa dominant strains have a disorienting head rush or the scary fear effects that do not go well with anxiety due to the potential panic attack response for fear of not being in control. Buds harvested too early can have more of a head high and cause this also because the buzz is more racy. I would avoid Cindy 99, Skunks, & Hazes.

I usually harvest my buds when trich's are mostly getting cloudy but before they start to go amber because at that point that is THC degrading into CBN which is okay if you want narcotic sleepy weed to smoke late at night before bedtime as it will be more of a downer.

Anxiety is a whole different animal really than just knocking someone out with over ripe bud as you probably know, the beneficial strains for it normally bring the patient a better general sense of well being, stomach relief, & a decent body high with less mental effects. The high is not "UP" or "DOWN" really to be ideal it's more of just in the middle somewhere & comfortable without being too strong. I would suggest something BB dominant for sure.

For myself, Blueberry & Sweet Tooth (SPGxBB hybrid) all work pretty effectively most likely due to the Thai genetics they contain which seem to have some connection to strains with a sense of well being and more positive thoughts, the Afghani in them seems to contribute to the body high and soothing stomach & stress effects. I hope this helps and I think you are on the right track! I would experiment with a few strains and see what works best for her.

Soft420,

From what I have read the sweet tooth is what I need to have for her. I may end up having to go out and look for some normal photo period ST genes. I have some normal Blue Berry that a friend brought back from Holland and they would be better than the other stuff I have kicking around that I am making for the pain sufferers to treat the anxiety but I honestly would rather stick with the autos.
I could take the blueberry I have or get my hands on some ST beans and just make an auto but frankly that takes a lot of bloody time. I am working on an auto cheese-wreck and it's not like it is rocket science, but it taint fast either.

So I am left with commercially available autos that others have put together to tackle this anxiety issue and see what I can do to help my new girl. She has the problems now so I need to get cracking now. So it seems that the needs dictate that it really should to be an auto. So anyone know of a better choice than the autoblueberry to attack this problem?

I am wide open to suggestions.

Dykster,
The Blue Streak was my first thought because I have really really been intending to grow out some Mdanzigs work since day one. He and his work is one of the reasons that I started playing with autos at the outset. The sod all annoying thing is that ever time that I manage to put a little money aside and order some seeds, his stuff has been out of stock or some other damn circumstance has popped up to make me end up with something else.

The blue streak was one of the ones that sounded most pleasant from my own point of view for me to smoke but life gets in the way and I have to grow for other peoples needs not my own. So I did not get it in the past. Now I doubly regret that choice. If I could have put the cash together and gotten them in the past I would be able to take care of her now. Shrug.
You are correct though in that the blues streak seems to be out of stock. So that is what has me asking everyone about the auto blueberry from Lowlife as it is apparently available at the moment.

It is good to hear that the blueberry is helping you with anxiety. Very very cool to find out that I am on the right track from someone who is dealing with a similar issue. Thanks.

Bluestreak out of stock ?
https://www.seedboutique.com/store/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=97&products_id=1871

Its in stock it seems.

Cheers Cyber!

That will teach me to start and then get back into a thread when smoking. I checked I thought all of the vendors that I have used and came up dry but apparently I only thought I had looked at all of them. Oops.

Ok, so since you have opened up the field a bit for me. Now the question is a touch broader. Which to get? I know I want to grow out MDanzigs gear. That is a fact, have for a while. But what I want takes a back seat to what would be better meds for my girl. Any thoughts as to which would be the better choice for addressing the anxiety?

Thanks again for being more awake and pointing out that the boutique had them in stock.

No problem bro,
Bluestreak definitely between it and autoblueberry imho
Sour60 is reportedly more potent by average, you might wanna check it as well (dunno about anti-anxiety though).

 

[CraftyApe]

Do want to do the Sour60 but in this specific instance I have to think meds not fun.

Since I am transitioning to hydro and leaving the soil in the dust my production volume will be going up and hopefully I will have some room soon to grow some stuff for fun. Then again the Sour60 is supposed to make for a decent sized plant in soil. Bound to be a total beast in hydro. Heh. Might take over the whole area.

I have Dutch Passion's autoBlueberry about a week from harvest. A lot of variation in phenos. I will let you know how the smoke is, looks good so far and smells unreal.

 

[I'm Dykster]

Sorry for the mis info on the bluestreak...good to hear it's available...I love the MasterLow..it makes me feel like..."hey man...whats up...." old groovy stone to it. If you can get your hands on here you won't be disappointed. They grow short and fat..let my go about 10 weeks and it almost trimmed itself!

I have a lot of med issues including cancer, and grow only autos. under 24 and they all give me good medicine.

If I can help you anyway...just pm me.

I love the MasterLow..it makes me feel like..."hey man...whats up...." old groovy stone to it.

The Masterlow has always sounded good to me,as well as the Sour60,in fact,I have a friend who said that she would send me a few of ea when they are finished.I'm really looking forward to that.

I sure hope someone decides to do an Auto Flo eventually.I would be so excited to see that available!

I'm a big fan of Mdanzigs' Blue Streak. The high is not a jittery up high but it doesn't drag you down like some indicas. Some down type weeds make me a little befuddled and I can't think. Blue Streak seems to be just right. You don't become mentally stupid. I understand about the anxiety attacks. I used to get them very bad. You heart races, pain in the chest and arms, chest feels constricted and you can't breath, you get dizzy and feel like your going to pass out and you feel like YOUR GOING TO DIE RIGHT NOW. Panic attack is a much more proper word for it. I understand why your girlfriend or anyone would not want this. It's horrible. Anyone that has never had one has no idea how frightening it is.

Hah. Wait till you get a panic attack while under shrooms/lsd/etc...
I never really have panic attacks under cannabis, but sometimes my asthma works up (even though I use a vaporizer) and thats not a pretty trip at all.

With cannabis, the fear of getting anxiety/panic attacks becomes a reason in itself for some people to get one, sometimes at the slightest feel of discomfort(be it physical or psychological).

 

[salbahe]

Mossy told me that his JEMs are effective for anxiety and other ailments...he uses them for his health issues...

The colors alone would relieve the anxiety...

 

[uptosumpn]

well said!^^^^^^^

 

[vicious bee]

Hah. Wait till you get a panic attack while under shrooms/lsd/etc...

I can not even imagine. I can not. That has got to be the worse feeling in the world. I don't take psychedelics any more after my last mushroom fiasco. I ate like 5 or 6 or I don't know a lot. I got sick. Felt like a dishrag the entire Universe was wringing out. Urrrgggh. I'm at the stage where I'm not interested in how high I can get. I already know.

Maybe something like this ?

Heheh..
