    Ever add anything to it to taste like ...

    Sometimes I just the munchies for grapes. Is there anything we can add to our products to add artificial flavor to it?

    Pain while smoking after injury?

    I have a chronic pain condition and after ditching opiates, MMJ is my main source of pain management. Yesterday morning I fell and injured both of my forearms. They aren't broken but are very badly bruised and swollen. I went to dab last night and I started coughing and it was the most excruciating pain I've felt in a LONG time. I almost went into a panic attack while trying to breathe it down and it took forever to go away. I figured it was a pressure thing from coughing, because it felt as if every remaining blood vessel in my arms blew all at once, and that theory made sense to me. Like bending over when you have a toothache or coughing when you have a sinus headache. This morning I tried again but was careful to not take a big enough hit to risk coughing. Immediately on hitting my pen, even though I didn't cough, the pain was in both forearms again. Does anyone have any ideas as to why this could be? I had surgery on my wrist about 10 years ago and never experienced this, but didn't smoke at the time. Are they somehow directly related?

    HELP from a lab tech, etc. Issue with my Marinol and UDS

    Hi!! I just received an "invalid" on my UDS for my probation. My Marinol has been approved through my program, and I'm under an addictionologist care throughout to rule on my UDS. I got a notification through my drug testing app my specimen was labeled "invalid". I called my case manager, and she said it was something to do with delta 8 vs my Marinol. She did say it was a lab issue, and they are speaking with the MRO about it.

    I haven't ever taken Delta 8. I've been on marinol for over 10 years.

    I've been on this med throughout my year of random drug screens, and never have had this happen.

    Help. I'm so anxious, even though I did nothing wrong.

    Which of these gummies is better for a 91 y/o with no cannabis experience?

    20:1 CBD/THC 210mg (hybrid) Or 1:1:1 THC/CBG/CBC 300mg

    I have a client who is 91, very sharp and mobile but she’s having severe leg pain possibly from an old knee replacement. She didn’t want to try a salve bc it’s her whole leg. She is very proper and I know she would never consider marijuana if she wasn’t in a lot of pain. I don’t want to give her anything too crazy and cause a bad experience, but I really believe cannabis may help her. I am not a medical patient but don’t have much knowledge in this department and was hoping to get some insight on which may be better. Thanks in advance 🙏

    Questions regarding proof of residency requirements in Florida

    I’m a college student in Florida seeking a medical marijuana card, but my official residency (and all of my IDs) are in a different state. Florida allows seasonal resident to apply for a med card, but they require proof of residency in the form of two of the following: a lease agreement, utility bill, financial mail, government mail, or a statement from a family member in Florida stating the patient stays with them seasonally. Am I able to use my dorm lease agreement and financial mail to my dorm P.O. box to satisfy these proof of residency requirements?

    Furthermore, what exactly are the parameters for using a statement from a family member as proof of residency? I have family in Florida, but I only stay with them for a few days at a time during holidays. Am I still able to take advantage of that proof of residency, and if so how accurate and elaborate does their statement need to be?

    Alta1 herbal infusion machine

    Has anyone heard of the Alta1 infusion machine?

    So I was looking into to an infusion machine for a really long time. To be honest, I was saving up for a Levo. But then I saw this video on YouTube that totally changed my mind.

    This device has a ultrasonic probe that significantly speeds up an infusion. I was watching videos of this guy comparing his ultrasonic infused oil with other batches of oil that he infused for hours using the Levo and the magical butter machine.

    The guy showed on the tcheck that the ultrasonic infused oil was more potent. It even tasted better.

    In this case I was sold. I pulled the trigger and bought one.since then, I can report that I am extremely happy with this machine. Plus their customer service is awesome.

    I'm my opinion the Alta1 stands head and shoulders above the other machines. I haven't seen anyone post about this hidden gem. So I thought I just let you guys know it's out there!! 😊

    Replace Ambien with cannabis?

    I've been on Ambien CR (12.5mg) for 17+ years and have built up quite a tolerance. My brain synapses just never quit flashing unless I take it. But it doesn't always work nowadays. I used to supplement with vodka but that led to all kinds of health issues. In September, I started taking a 5mg cannabis gummy (4:2:1 CBD:CBN:THC) in addition to the Ambien and have now stopped drinking altogether. It's been amazing. Now I'm wondering if I could get rid of the Ambien altogether and just use the gummies. Has anyone done this? If so, what cannabis dosage, strain, or formulation did you use to get out from under Ambien?

    Interdose THC withdrawal?

    New MMJ user here (52m). I discovered MMJ for use with my insomnia at the beginning of September. It was a revelation for me. I'd never tried marijuana before then. Since then I've developed the following daily regimen: 10mg THCV capsule in the morning for energy and appetite suppression, 2.5 THC mint around 9am, 5mg THC gummy around 2pm, 5mg tincture around 8pm, and 5mg THC gummy (with Ambien) before bed.

    After 3 months of this regimen, I dropped the 9am, 2pm, and 8pm doses. About 24 hours later I started feeling lightheaded and dizzy and had some heart palpitations. My breathing seemed stunted too. This has been going on for a couple days. Could this be interdose withrawal? Can THC dependence set in so quickly?

    First timer - gummy made me incredibly nauseous

    Hi all,

    Sorry for the long post question but I just had a strange experience. I have chronic migraines and other health issues and decided to try THC via delta 9 gummies (Mood, which my state allows).

    I decided to test the waters tonight. I wanted to be cautious with my first experience so I split a 5mg (yes, I'm sure) gummy into 4 pieces and ate one. I felt nothing, so 2-2.5 hrs later I ate one more piece (2.5mg total). Within ~5 minutes of that second piece, I got incredibly nauseous, heart pounding and legs shaking. I took Zofran which thankfully saved me from puking. It's been 3 hrs since that second dose and I feel ok now so I think it's over. I'm 99% sure it was caused directly by the gummy because it felt just like how I've reacted to alcohol in the past (I no longer drink because it gives me nausea so easily). It wasn't like my migraine nausea.

    I would understand this reaction if I got "too high" but 2.5mg is a small dose and I never even felt any psychological effect. I'm wondering if anyone knows why this could happen or if anyone has experienced something similar but succeeded with other forms of THC? Feeling really bummed because I thought this could help me feel better.

    Which Terpenes work, or none?

    I'm looking to add terpenes to my flower before vaping. NOT for flavor but to change the effect it has on me.

    Some people say on Reddit terpenes do nothing and others say they do work. Short of buying some and trying them and wasting money I don't have, can someone here set me straight on the EFFECTS?
