Need your help guys - Finding the right strain

    At the mercy of the forum posters, I will be totally straight up about where I am:

    I've just been baffled since I got my MJ prescription. Before last Friday, I did not smoke for over five years. When I did smoke it was a few times daily and I remember the high being relatively balanced. I could smoke before work, after work - pretty much anytime without being insta-glued to the couch with no desire to do anything else. Enter the nice dispensary I now patronize - I started with a 100% sativa for a daytime jig and after a few modest tokes, I literally began to hallucinate. I stood in the hallway with a dirty towel for several minutes while the request to my brain in regards to what I should do with said towel was being processed. After that it was this uncomfortable cerebral high with intense paranoia and anxiety. I then go back and get two indica-only strains and after a few good hits I walk around and clean a bit then it's couch lock without any desire to do anything. Don't get me wrong, the indicas were very good but I don't smoke weed to enter a vegitative state.

    I am trying to find a strain that is more balanced and more similar to what I used to smoke. Your thoughts and suggestions would be much appreciated!

    Yeah that medical shit is intense, Just dont smoke as much, maybe one hit or two and see how you do. If not go back to the local dealers selling mids. Or just toke for awhile and youll learn to control your high

    indica-sativa blend? haha
    but seriously, usually everyone is effected differently. you'll probably just have to try a bit of everything. see what suits your needs

    talk to the people working the dispensary, they know what they have in stock and can recommend you a fitting strain. just explain what type of high you are looking for and they might be able to give you the names of a few strains that suit your needs.

    sounds like your tolerance is really low, and it will take some building up before you can expect to really be able to function well while under the influence. but don't worry, it comes with experience!:smoking:

    I forgot to mention that I also got a 80:20 sativa heavy blend that I also tried. I found the high to be more reasonable and I was actually in an uplifting mood and pretty happy. I am thinking I should try a 80:20 or 70:30 indica to sativa hybrid..

    I tried a 80:20 indica

    I love it.

    Wow really - how was the high and do you remember the strain?
     
  8. #8 CrazyCaptain, Feb 1, 2010
    my vote is like most others, a indica-sativa hybrid.
    if you want some better answers, this thread is better suited for Medical Marijuana or the Seasoned Tokers sections.

    Crazy what would your opinion be on the ratios of indica and sativa just based on your own experience?
     
  10. #10 CrazyCaptain, Feb 1, 2010

    well highs effect everyone differently.
    I know that I dont get nearly the same sort of high that some of my friends get.

    Based off of the information that you have provided, I would get an 80/20 sativa/hybrid as stated earlier. I was also follow the advice as to talking to the people running the dispensary, as they probably know just the right stuff for you.
