Hey guys long time lurker here! This is my first thread. I'm 21, I prefer edibles but enjoy a bowl or two once in a while. I'll tell you how cannabis has helped me. I've suffered from anger issues and social anxiety since I can remember. 4 years ago I injured my back and have suffered from chronic pain but a big dropper full of green dragon after breakfast gets me through the day with no pain, anxiety or anger.
I also have back problems. I have 2 deteriorating and bulging disks. I also prefer edibles. I do not like to smoke much because it makes me paranoid (well I havent tried in a while) but I am growing some White Widow and OG Kush right now. I want to give it another try. I would like to take advantage of the CBD in hopes to relieve back pain without being on these damn pain pills. I hear that if you let the majority of tric's turn amber and go a few weeks past maturity, you will get more CBD. I havent tried and want to see if it is true. I bought a nice vaporizer to test out my buds.About 6 weeks and they will be harvested and dried and ready to vape.
I don't like to smoke much because on the first few tokes I cough my lungs out even with my homemade double chambered bong.
Yeah I hear ya. I would recommend a vaporizer! It will go down very smooth. Just noticed you said you made green dragon! I tried to make something similar with vegetable glycerin. It was on such a small scale that I couldnt tell if it would have worked or not. Now that I'll have leaves and stems from my grow I wanted to do that. What was your method and what type of alcohol did you use? I saw a vid where you put a glass jar full of alcohol (and of course your bud or leaves) inside a pot of simmering water. Keep the temp of alcohol around 170 for 30-45 min. Or the slow way of just soaking 1:1 for a month, shaking every day. Did you do it one of those ways?
I use the stove method depicted here http://www.greendragonsoda.com/ but I don't strain it immediately, I leave it soaking for a week. I have no vape because they're kinda expensive
I got a brand new Vapir for $80-$90, for the price, its amazing. Thanks for the info, Ill give it a shot!
