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.

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 …

The endocannabinoid system
One place we find cannabinoids very similar to those that marijuana produces is in our bodies. Most animals including humans and other vertebrates produce their own cannabinoids. These endogenous cannabinoids regulate nerve and immune function and many other critical metabolic processes. This is done in part through a unique process called retrograde signaling. The body's endogenous cannabinoids regulate the nerves signaling output. In the early 1990s scientists identified a natural human cannabinoid. It was named anandamide from the Sanskrit word for bliss and is chemically described as n-arachidonoylethanolamide AEA. Since then four other endogenous cannabinoids have b…

Raw cannabis juicing ... and then keeping the leaves for hash?
does anyone do juicing of raw cannabis leaves as per Dr William Courtney? also the other part of the title, if you were to juice the leaves... after juicing would it still be useful to keep the leaves and process to make THC edibles? or to get hash from them? or would that depend on the time they were harvested? (from the used plant material) thanks in advance...

Sourcing Cannabis while travelling full-time on the road
Greetings Peoples, As someone who requires Cannabis (& THC Oil) for Chronic Pain reasons, which has allowed me the experience to travel (previously not thought possible). The problem is sourcing the required materials while on the road full-time. I know places like Nimbin where products are easily able to be sourced, or your home town connections, however, for the rest of the Country, it can be rather difficult to source your medical requirements. The Hemp Embassy posts required oil to anywhere I require.. which is great. Does anyone know of towns in other states that are easier to source the required dried herb products, rather than having to go through approach…

Gotta do without for awhile
Hi all, new poster here. I’ve been using weed to medicate my insomnia for a couple years now, usually just a joint of Skywalker an hour before bed, at least six days a week. I’m traveling out of the country for a couple months and plan to do without medication for the duration. I have a background in psychology, been reading lots of research about marijuana withdrawal syndrome. Based on the research it looks like I’m in for a couple weeks of (and I quote) irritability, anxiety, decreased appetite, restlessness, and sleep difficulties (ugh), but after that I should be out of the woods. Have you been in situations like this before, like having to go without medication for a…
