New Toker, here with questions about stuff

    Ok, first of all high everyone! 
     
    Disclaimer: I'm very high right now so try to bear with my thoughts. 
     
    I'm a new toker, just started recently after some neighbors brought me to the dark side, but it's okay, because I love it. Since I started about a month ago, I find myself getting high and googling stuff, trying to learn shit about this LOL. And it always brought me here, to these forums. 
     
    So my start story is short: Some friends introduced me into it, and since then i've been hooked ever sense. I have noticed that different bud tastes and feels a bit different. Well, no, they all pretty much taste differently (that i've tasted so far), and the feel is subjective. 
     
    ANYWAY so, my friends got tired of rolling my joints for me (I don't blame them I felt like such an annoyance lol) and sought out to get me my first pipe! They asked what my favorite colors were (I didn't go with them to pick it out on my own) and I said orange and purple 
     
    And then they come back with this adorable little pipe that I love already. And then I found out you get to name them, and you're supposed to just look at it; and know. I got high and spent some time debating it, and then finally it hit me. CHARMANDER! 
     
    The handle was long and orange with white circles around it, and the bowl was a purple/ddark blue color. Charmander's tail! 
     
    So anyway my question is I have smoked just probably less than 1% of strains, but the other highs I got from other weed that was told to me as "dro", really fucking baked. 
     
    But the other night their friend came over and was selling, and he called it something like "sour diesel" or like, "lemon sour diesel" and I was stoked because it smelled amazing, seriously SO strong. 
     
    And then everytime I smoke it, I cough like crazy. It's like a sour, kind of burning in your throat, and I just can't stop coughing. On top of this I think my throat is literally the narrowest one in the world, because I choke on everything. 
     
    I'm just wondering, is this something that could be made in California? Where does this come from? And why is it the only one that GAGS me as I inhale? Am I just unexperienced, or is it too strong for a beginner, or is it just a bad type of weed for me?
     
    If anyone reads this, thanks! I've been wanting to chat with other smokers because I can't talk to anyone that smokes while high lol. All my friends are against it and would KILL me. So, feel free to like chat me up lol.

    You're most likely coughing from the fertilizers and chemicals
     
    used to grow the flower you smoked.. some areas growers are
     
    extremely lazy and careless and only care about the money, and so
     
    they spray/douse the plant in chemicals that dry into the flower and then
     
    is sold to you! And a word from the wise, do not believe the names your
     
    dealers call the flower. unless they grow it themselves, dealers are more
     
    often ignorant of the actually strain and call it whatever they see fit. as you
     
    experience the different indica/sativa/hybrid 'highs,' you'll easily start to
     
    figure out which strain is which, and flavors you'll remember.  if your state has
     
    medical cannabis, I would suggest signing up! I mean, why not get your moneys
     
    worth and go for clean medical grade flower over whatever your dealer randomly
     
    has?

    A lot of my friends are against it. Today I told my friend, and he started calling me shit, and I said its weed not fucking crack, and he said there's no difference. I don't mind when people are misinformed, but when they WILL NOT accept proven facts, and keep calling you a smack addict and shit. Honestly annoys me so much.

    Welcome to GC, and to smoking weed. I'll take a stab at the only questions I could find in your post..
     
    Cannabis can be grown everywhere. Chances are, it was not grown in California. Good weed can be grown anywhere in the world...because a lot of the best weed is grown indoors.
     
    When you inhale, you can mix some oxygen by also breathing in with your nose as you take it in. It will provide a better mix of fresh air and probably will help you out some. You might just have some harsh weed. Maybe it wasn't cured long enough or flushed properly when it's grown. Don't worry about all that right now, you're new to smoking and it's not supposed to be hard. Sort of opposite the point of smoking in the first place.
     
    The only 'bad type of weed' is the type that's been altered from it's natural state. Meaning if it's been laced with something. Cannabis is not dangerous, and will not harm you. You can't overdose from it, and about the only ill effect you can get from taking in "too much" is falling asleep or eating a lot of snacks.
     
    Enjoy the ride...

    You seem to know what you're talking about, lol.
     
    If I can post pictures of the plant here before it got ground up, I can
    I thought it was amazing so I took a picture of it, lol. 
    But I don't know if pictures are allowed.

    Of course you can, you just upload them and post them
     
    into the Stash Jar section, it's nearly impossible to tell the
     
    strain by picture, but it's always great to see shots of cannabis
     
    flowers from every user! We can at least tell you the quality of the
     
    flower.

    Thanks for the kind words! The first time I was told I smoked "dro" it literally knocked me out, lol. I was like blown away and my heart was beating fast and I got that swirly feeling, I was like "fuuuck  maybe this was a bad idea" (I'm also a hydrophbioac, i think, the ones that are afraid they have like a tumor if they have a headache)
     
     
     
    Read the forum guidelines, discussions involving "other Drugs" is not allowed and no it wasn't laced.

    "dro" is short for "hydro" which refers to hydroponics, a method of growing cannabis using hydroponics indoors....the roots are suspended in buckets filled with circulating water, normally connected to each other with hoses and joined to a reservoir filled with water and where nutrients are applied. For the most part though, people just say "dro" in the same way they say "dank" or "loud", depending on the area you live in.
     
    sorry to be a total buzzkill, I was just saving you from trying to figure out what he fuck everyone is saying dro for. It probably just means it's good weed, but technically "dro" would be grown indoors in a hydroponics outfit :bongin:
     
    I think the anxiety you're talking about isn't because it was laced with anything, it was probably just from the excitement of the new experience. We all love smoking weed, and it affects everyone differently but for the most part it's a positive effect. It's ok to feel a little disassociated and certainly 'high'. The anxiety/panic reaction could just have been from the environment you were in. Try again, in a more calm/collected environment. Maybe in your room, some good music on, some munchies nearby and a magazine or whatever. Just chill out, do it yourself, don't freak out and just let it happen. Kinda like the secks. :metal:
