CANNABIS MYTHS

[usa]

Sam, are you gonna put all this stuff into a book one day? You are a great source for "good" data. I'll say at one time went thru everyone of your posts and read every bit of it, almost 1 sitting. Good stuff saved me allot of wastefull reading with "bad" data or data that is only speculated.

You know... some reefer madness myths I wish WERE true. WIld sex orgies being one of them.

Another weed-related myth is people going around talking about how they don't smoke weed anymore because one time they got a bag laced with acid/mushrooms/formaldehyde/anything-implausible and now they're never smoking weed again

ive heard so many stupid ass comments I could go forever,lol

you hang the plant upside down to get the thc in the buds, you boil the roots to make the plant more potent , theres white weed (because of no light) that grows in the sewers in nyc , you can water with blueberry or some other fruit in your water to flavor the weed, etc.,etc.., the amount of stupid ass shit said is just amazing.

I'm pretty sure this is plausible. I've gotten schwag that has been dipped in formaldahyde and/or clorox before. I'm a biology major and I know my formaldahyde. I believe they did this for easier trafficking acrossed the border. My 2 cents.

I hopefully will never be smoking schwag again, for many reasons.

whizzard,
"Sam, not sure what your term loaded means."

Well in this case I meant the feeling you get if you smoke 5-10 year old pot, you don't really get high but it does get you loaded.
You need to find some really really old bud and toke it, then you will understand.

you mean kind of like the high from opium but with considerably less euphoria and without the occasional hallucination?

its being high but its not high on bud, thats for sure

 

[Sam_Skunkman]

With opium you do get high at first, but it might be more like smoking opium dross, the scrapings from an opium pipe, it will get you loaded but not high. And no opium smoker with any money will buy or use it.

I had a couple of questions after reading the rumors (I would've been one of the fools that thought thcv increases potency) what cannabinoids/terpeniods or combonation of the two gives you that crystal clear/ deep in happy thought "sativa" high? Also why do some plants hit you after the first toke like haze varieties while others need time to take effect?

good questions! i'm wondering this too

ok , i have one a guy mentioned to me the other day ..
""i cut my plants off with the full stalk intact , so when i hang it upside down , all the resin and thc drips from the stalks into the buds .... """""

 

[Sam_Skunkman]

Cool wallyduck,
At least he did not think it was in the roots!! LOL

What if one were to cross a high THC sativa with a high CBD hemp plant?The outcome could be a high CBD plant with adequete THC.Or it could be crappy like your slap happy grandpappy..

 

[Sam_Skunkman]

Where do you find a high CBD hemp variety? I only see low CBD ones less then 2%.

[Guest]

I don't know about percentages I went googlin around when Pops mentioned needing a high CBD strain and came across a link about wild hemp and CBD.I think if you gargle cbdhemp it'll come up.It could be bunky.Here's no myth.Smoking erb with a cold can intensify your miserableness..I dunt feel so good

 

[Sheriff Bart]

well for me the pipe rezy is sedating, a bit euphoric, and it is in resemblance to bud (if you never smoked it before but had smoked bud but you weren't told what it was, you'd think it was like bud) but it also has some of that fogginess that can be produced by opiates i think, or has for me, thats why i resemble it to a poor opiate. I think i know what you mean though, but i would say that you can get high off it, but its just not like really being truly high from real bud.

perhaps tolerance may have something to do with the activity of the resin as well...

 

[Sheriff Bart]

ditchweed (if it was really growing in a ditch, side of road, train tracks, etc.) in the midwest sounds like hemp
not psychoactive!

 

[motaco]

well since we're talking about pipe resins.


I used to think very much the way sam does about resin. that it was cooked too much to get you high.

But oddly enough a crackpipe made me change my mind.

I have a lil clear one hitter crack pipe I bought at the corner bodega store for smoking hash. But I smoke little bits of weed out of it too. But its completely clear and you can watch whats happening to the bowl and the smoke and everything.

I found out resin liquifys with very little heat and basically is hash oil that runs away from the flame. After one hit a golden oil starts running away from the flame and with the airflow just like hash oil. In the crackpipe it runs back and up. out of the airflow and away from the heat in a lil nook where it gathers on itself. The resin that is deposited there after one bowl is a gold color like high quality hash oil, better than alot of iso looks.

The same way a vaporizer burns the trichs but you still take more hits off of it. I suspect the same is true of that oil. I don't smoke pipe scapings either so I couldn't tell you what its like but I do suspect that golden residue contains thc. The same way a half vaporized bowl out of volcano is still containing thc.

how fast its being broken down by time after the damage is another question all together but if we're talking about the potential of smoked pipe resins to contain thc I'd say it does. just my .02

motaco,
I agree with what you say, except that the oil in the pipe will change from THCA to CBN very quick from the heat and oxygen. Try scraping it off and collect enough to smoke, smoking it when you are fresh in the morning, then say what it is or if you like it. The older it is the less you will like it, I suspect.

Hate to beat on the question but SAM!

Did you ever experiment with Colchicine or is using it for polyploid a myth as well?


THanks!!
