I rep a small brand that's in a couple of markets, we've been at it for a while. The same question keeps coming up from customers who do a lot of interstate travel: why are the products different everywhere. They bought our flower in one state, loved it, picked it up in another and it wasn't the same.

They're right, though. Each state has its own grow and its own lab results in my experience. We try to keep it as consistent as possible but even the packaging has to be slightly different because nothing can cross state lines. Same name, different plant inside. Not everyone gets the legislative side behind this and I feel like we haven't been able to explain this well to our customers in the packaging and product itself.

Any brand peeps handling this? Any customers want to share what they want to know upfront to show that it's a different grow? Thanks so much.

So the other night I greened out really badly. At least I hope thats what it was because the alternative is that I was having a mini heart attack or some shit.

I only had four reasonable sized puffs which has been completely fine on me up untill that night. Its important to note that I have a small arrhythmia condition but its really small and had never been much of a problem. I also hadn't eaten much that day and hadnt been eating or sleeping enough in general. Im thinking these things contributed heavily here.

I ended up having pains and aches directly in my heart. Like it was my heart muscles that hurt. The entire left side of my body felt off and the left arm was slightly numb. Not completely numb but bad enough. I kept on having body spasms and my pulse would spike up every few minutes (my friend kept checking).

I had some sharp pains in my chest (both sides) my arm, my stomache, my neck, head, and my ribs. I got a little nausea at one point but only a little.

I had like one really bad sharp shooting pain in my chest which was terrifying. I also got really dizzy and there were a couple point I was scared Id pass out although I could've just been dissacociating really hard sonce thats what I do when I freak out.

I had a similar experience recently on a much smaller scale but that because I used my friends pen and apparently they'd tried to wash the cart out with water.🙄

Has anyone had symptoms like this? Do I really need to visit a doctor?

Im been trying to make a god tier thc enhancing and what i have so far is based on things ive heard and the stuff I looked into. I would love some input and changes to this list that I will put under here. Please if you have any other enhancing ideas to help with absorption and the experience etc add to this list.

Timing

T−45 min Mix ¼–½ teaspoon black pepper into water and drink it.- intended effect is for the piperine which idk slows metabolism or somrthing i have no clue atp.

T−30 min Chew 2 regular Tums.-apparently reduces/neutralizes stomach acid so more thc can survive

T−15 min Eat a few squares of 70%+ dark chocolate.-theobromine and anandamide-related compounds—are believed to complement THC's effect

T0 Melt chew into the drink whole milk, heavy cream ( nesquik) for flavor).- adds concentrated fat that may help carry fat-soluble THC during digestion.

So basically how can I build tolerance very fast?

I have a few puffs and I lay down all paranoid with my heart racing but it’s for going through it for the benefits.

Basically I’m uk based and have an extremely rare sleep condition - so rare in fact there isn’t a name for it and it leaves my doctors puzzled.

I’ve found weed to be a literal cure for it (and alcohol, however I will not drink)

I basically want a tolerance where I can dictate how high I get if you get me? And find it difficult to become overwhelmed by the experience.

I will not just “stop smoking” I’m literally using it to treat a medical condition I just want the benefits without feeling like I’m going to die every time 😅

For 3 years I've regularly used hemp derived THC gummies. I've gone through many periods of daily use but also some 2-3 week periods of no use. I don't seem to develop a tolerance. My usual dose to get enjoyably high is 5mg. Sometimes I take 10mg but sometimes that makes me feel TOO high. I'm just as sensitive when smoking.

To be fair it's obviously nice to have a low tolerance as it keeps it affordable. I'm just curious to learn more factors that might influence a lower tolerance and to hear other people's stories. Thankies!

Hey folks!

I got a job in cannabis as a budtender for the first time earlier this year and this is my first cannabis event that im attending and I am wondering what are the dos and donts of these types of events?

Thanks

OK, so my buddy and I are looking into possibly trying to open a dispensary in Iowa if and when it becomes legal. I’ve got a little bit of digging into the subject, approval of licenses, and all that could take months and funding are big issues. on top of the willingness to fund through loans. I was just looking for some advice on the topic this is something that my buddy and I really passionate about that we would really like to invest in.
