MEDICINAL CANNABIS WARNING / DISCLAIMER
There is no pharmacological free lunch in cannabis or any drug. Negative reactions can result. A small percentage of people have negative or allergic reactions to marijuana. Heart patients could have problems, even though cannabis generally relieves stress, dilates the arteries, and in general lowers the diastolic pressure. A small percentage of people get especially high heart rates and anxieties with cannabis. These persons should not use it. Some bronchial asthma sufferers benefit from cannabis; however, for others it may serve as an additional irritant.

Humidity Control . Keeping buds in storage and fresh / What is best pr
Hi all. I was wondering if someone might give some insight into best methods to keep buds in best storage conditions. In terms of keeping some juicy buds from drying out quickly. I have had some looking around and many suggest just a glass air tight jar keep in dark spot. Not to storage all buds in same JAR as to prevent each time JAR is open effecting the whole batch. I have read many people use Orange Peal and even some interesting ways people use water to bring life to dry buds. So for a hypothetical. If you got given a 1/4 of very juicy buds what would you advise to keep the quality in storage as best as possible. I come across a company called Boveda Top can…

Feedback on medical cannabis seeds. Import or Domestic
Hey, Was not sure really what thread to post this in. Please advise if better suited elsewhere. My question is mainly about cannabis seeds ( mainly of the types listed for medical purposes ) . It is easy to find huge amounts of websites that claim* they ship seeds worldwide including Australia. Many of them have an option called " Stealth or Super Stealth " or something like that. They state most cases delivery assured. Stealth to my basic understanding is , the hide the seeds inside another item. I am not aware of the stealth methods used , never done it. I see this website has an ad for https://www.seedsman.com/en/ . At a glance at thier shipping policy it says " W…

Sudden Reverse Tolerance and Hangover
After a few years of daily smokin/vaping I developed an instantaneous reverse tolerance one evening about a year ago. My habits were mostly using a vape pen only in the evening going through a half gram cartridge every two weeks. One night after my first draw off the pen I became so unbelievably stoned I couldn’t do a second the whole evening it lasted maybe 5-6 hours. The next day came with an ungodly hangover like I drank 2 bottles of wine. I don’t drink however. I then took that day off and the next day felt fine. Unfortunately the same thing happened on that day. I’ve experimented with different strains all top shelf and also injesting methods all with the same result…

Epilepsy and Medical Marijuana
There is no doubt that cannabis can work wonders for children with Dravet syndrome as well as other types of epilepsy. However, one major fall back is that the substance still isn’t widely available due to legal restrictions. Cannabis as a helpful medicine for epilepsy is well known to others. The study involved 120 children and teenagers with Dravet syndrome who were split into a test and control (or placebo) group. The test group was treated using Epidiolex, a CBD drug produced by GW Pharmaceuticals, and monitored for a total of 14 weeks. The results found that the average number of monthly seizures in the CBD group decreased from 12.4 to 5.9 (52%). The placebo groups …

Rick Simpson Oil in Australia (Melbourne)?
Hi guys, My mum "beat" ovarian cancer a couple of years ago but it appears to be back in her liver. Just found out. She's already frail and weak as it is from the previous treatment, and is worried about repeating it. She's asked for me to look into Cannabis oil. After some research I see that RSO is what we need, and I can already see there are a lot of scam websites out there (fucking horrible people to scam sick people). Is RSO something that can be sourced in Melbourne? Or Adelaide? Or legitimately online and shipped? Thanks guys

need some direction
During my late teens and 20's i used pot recreationally. After about a 10 year gap i tried it again, this time i lost my shite....to this day i never understood what happened. I had smoked pot 100's of times before, however, this one time may years later almost made me lose my mind. Would love to hear some theories from some experts. Could it have been laced?(i am not sure if that's a thing) Could i have overdone it?

Cannabinoid properties and their vaping temps
I've been experimenting with various temperatures on my vaporiser recently, and observing the different effects that one strain can produce. It's quite interesting, and some of the information I've come across will probably be of help to others too, so I figured I'd share here. I'm pretty interested in this subject so will likely add to the thread when I find interesting things. Below are the boiling points (what you need to set your vape to) for the major phytocannabinoids, terpenes and flavonoids, along with the main properties for each. If you have a vape with a temp control, you can dial it in to meet your needs. This comes from various reliable sources, links …
