Is there anyone else on here that likes to smoke weed?

On all the threads I've seen that have mention cannabis it usually made out like the worse thing ever.

I'm a bit of a stoner tbh and just wondered if there is any others out there? I always see threads with people sharing what they drinking so thought I'd give it a go!

Not sure how this will go on here soo 🤞

mencken well aren’t you a treat Smile

I’m definitely going to have a spoonful in the next hour. Almost put them in some baking this morning but I’m sharing the muffins with my children so steering well clear!

lonleycrab I find the smell of old school hash so nostalgic. It makes me think of festivals circa 2002!

eggcream · 19/04/2020 12:37

@Lemonnhoney we are in France. Not usually a problem but nobody can go anywhere at the moment. I'm pretty sure it isn't covered by any of the tick boxes on our permisssion slips Grin

WorraLiberty · 19/04/2020 12:42

I don't smoke it as I can't stand the smell but I can't get fussed about those who choose to.

Perhaps it's area dependent but here a 'stoner' is very different to someone who just has the odd recreational joint. They tend to do very little except get stoned all the time and never hold down a job.

SkaLaLand · 19/04/2020 12:43

You can vape weed? This is revolutionary! Can someone share with me how? Never used a vape and gave up smoking of all kinds because of the tobacco. Totally up for a vaped high!

Lemonnhoney · 19/04/2020 12:43

@eggcream, oh yes maybe make it a bit more difficult! One of our dealers has been very wary since lockdown.. Almost like what he has been doing this whole time wasn't illegal in the first place! But I totally get it as more chance to get stopped.

My DH met an old friend who supplies him they both biked (aka daily excersize) to meet. Obviously observing social distancing Wink

@Lemonnhoney I find the strain matters massively to me. They have really different effects. I never really go for a sativa as they make me trip out and stay awake, although sativas are often good if youre using in daytime for creativity or to make you laugh. I like to go for a high CBD indica which knock me out a bit or CBD +THC, as high cbd ones are quite good for my anxiety levels the next day.
Im really fussy tbh. Ive been the same with every drug ive ever taken and also different types of alcohol. I can notice huge differences batch to batch that others cant (or find subtle). Its not a blessing. Its annoying.
I think its because of my aspergers

Branleuse · 19/04/2020 12:46

I actually prefer the effects of a glass or two of wine if im honest, but I dont tolerate alcohol well in that it makes me sick easily, stops me sleeping and gives me hangovers or next day depression

Lemonnhoney · 19/04/2020 12:47

@Espoleta @skalaland yes you can get vapes for it! Got mine on vapefiend. Com.. I have one called Spirit.. Hand held and pretty sly and sleek, only need a tiny bit of bud and gets me high for an evening!

Changed my smoking experience lol I feel like a real sophisticated stoner ha

RainbowBalloon · 19/04/2020 12:48

branlause do you find it helps your Aspbergers? My dh has an adult diagnosis of ADHD and finds a mellow indica really calms his head.

Branleuse · 19/04/2020 12:49

For vapes, the volcano i think is the gold standard, but its quite a set up. The 'plenty' is pretty good and less of a faff. I dont use either anymore though as even vaping hurts my lungs

Lemonnhoney · 19/04/2020 12:49

@worraliberty, yea I use the term lightly.. I'm not high all day long. Just enjoy the herb and use it recreationally!

OP posts:
Lemonnhoney · 19/04/2020 12:51

@Branleuse how do you get such specific strains? I try and get my preferred, I also like an indica these days as like I said I usually smoke on an evening since having kids oppose to daytime, but sometimes I just have to get what's in at the time!

OP posts:
Branleuse · 19/04/2020 12:52

@RainbowBalloon I dont know if it helps my aspergers or not. It just helps me sleep.

Sometimes it makes the anxiety worse though, depending on the strain. Its annoying when that happens.

Lemonnhoney · 19/04/2020 12:53

@Lonelycrab welcome! I'm the same.. But not going to lie. I've had a couple of wake and bakes, or dinner time more like, during the lockdown 😂

JohnFinlaysNewTeeth · 19/04/2020 12:57

Ah, my people!
I’m currently on week 3 of not smoking as we ran out first week of quarantine and not been able to get more. We just buy through our friend so don’t know the connection ourselves, social distancing has meant we can’t get anything and my anxiety is through the roof because of it.

Lonelycrab · 19/04/2020 12:57

@lemon don’t beat yourself up over it. It’s not like we’ve got many options to fill the day so fill yer boots I reckon Grin

I’ve found this lockdown, not knowing if and when I’m next going to get any, has taken me to the next level of rationing. Gotta eek it out!

Branleuse · 19/04/2020 12:58

@Lemonnhoney
I dont know half as many dodgy people now as I used to in my younger day, but clearly I still know enough. Haha
Its just something ive taken an interest in and asked along the way and have got quite a good memory for this sort of info. I actually dont know that much, but if ive had a bad time ill ask what it was, and also if its good.
Doesnt mean i can always get what I want unfortunately.
Its one of the reasons its a shame its not legal. In amsterdam in the past it was always nice that you can go and pick certain strains in a coffee shop according to what you want it to do, and most non tourists would respect it and use it sensibly.
Much better mindset than just wanting to get as off your face as possible on any random dope you could get hold of, which is a bit of a teenagery attitude imo

WingBingo · 19/04/2020 14:02

@Lemonnhoney you sound ace too!

I have just been for a run, I will have a little puff now before a lovely bath. Then spend the afternoon in the garden with the DC.

Enjoy your allotment Grin

Iflyaway · 19/04/2020 14:19

Hey, I've found my tribe! Smile

Been smoking it for years but I live in a place where it is legal so that's great.

I smoke a mild weed, don't like hash purely because it's mixed with other stuff (henna?).

I'm very healthy, (over 60), never had the flu and the only medicine I've ever taken is antibiotics.

n00bMaster69 · 19/04/2020 14:36

I wonder if someone here can help me.
A couple of years ago I got given a small amount of a hash, but is wasn't the usual hash. It was made from the living plant and the effects are completely different, more trippy, loved up feelings, hallucinogenic. Apparently it's hard to come by as the process of making it takes a lot longer than the usual stuff.

I cannot for the life of me remember what is is called though.
Anyone have any idea what it could be?

Lonelycrab · 19/04/2020 14:48

@n00bMaster69 it could be pure hash. As pp said, the stuff you normally get is normally mixed with something else. I have a mate who knows how to make it and the stuff I tried was bonkers strong.

Or it could be something like the legendary temple ball but I think if you had any of that you’d know about it, apparently it knocks you for six...

n00bMaster69 · 19/04/2020 15:00

No, it's not hash, it has a particular name. It's not made in the same way.

I've had temple ball many, many times. It isn't that either.

PatricksRum · 19/04/2020 15:01

Those with children, aren't you concerned about second hand smoke?

MimiLaRue · 19/04/2020 15:02

I like it occasionally. I always chuckle at the people that lecture about it, yet they see nothing wrong with drinking two bottles of wine a night which is appalling for health. Also- if we're talking about being boring- there is nothing more boyish and tedious than a drunk person.
