(1,771 posts)If in waiting area or in line. We discuss the myths about marijuana, what strains we like, stuff like that. If I'm not stocking up on the low THC - pain strains, I usually get the most potent shit they sell. It cost more but I use much less.
To 'seniors' considering re-discovering Pot, you need to understand that the shit we smoked back in the day was basically ditch weed. THC content was usually 5% or less. The marijuana now can be 20% to 25% THC. And then there are Waxes (which I like). A piece of Wax 1/2 the size of a grain of rice is like smoking an entire joint. So, if you're starting to use again please keep this in mind. Take it easy when you start.
If you just want to get 'high' buy a good Hybrid, but if you're looking for some medical benefits you'll need to do some research. Learn the difference between a Sativa and an Indica. Learn what all the cannaboids do. Pot is not just Pot. There are a ton of differences in the various strains.
