Lately it seems like disposable vape pens are pretty much everywhere and fairly cheap. But I find them kind of gross, to be honest, with excessive “flavoring” that makes me wonder what’s in there.
Combustion has its obvious downsides. I didn’t worry too much in the past, but as my consumption has risen it isn’t the best day-to-day method. … Edibles, I have mixed feelings on. The effects are awesome (my ideal) but I don’t want to eat a bunch of sugar and shit. Lately I’ve been buying gummies from a guy I met at a cannabis market and am getting a good price, but I also can’t verify what’s in them or their potency, and it’s still a bunch of sugar in the end (albeit not a ton).
So in the last week I’ve been back to my Pax vaporizer, which seems to split the middle in terms of non-edibles. It’s pure herb, which I like, but doesn’t seem to produce as much vapor and requires a bit of fussing around between bowls.
And I’m thinking about leaning into the tons of cheap herb available and make my own tinctures again. I’ve done this before with varying success, but may spend some more time trying to get it right.
You’d have to be consuming ungodly amounts of gummies before sugar becomes an issue right? It’s got to be better than inhaling either from vaping or just regular smoke.
Seconding this. So long as you arernt chowing down on brownies or chocolate bars every night, the gummies seem to have the best high for the least calories and dangers of combustion
I swear that in a package of edibles that has 100 grams of THC, it’s not evenly distributed. one of those edibles in the package will put me down, while the other 9 will be just fine…
I have no idea how these guys get away with this (for 5 years?) but my drug dealer drops it off in my mail box a few times a year. These are about the size of big marble.
I make my own vape carts with distillate/isolate/terps and edibles with coconut oil in a gelcap, so I know exactly what’s in them and can customize for my tastes.
Haven’t “smoked” weed in years, am doing about 75% cartridges and 25% volcano vaporizer. It’s just too easy to use cartridges, even though they’re more expensive and I end up getting way more baked, I think it’s worth it. Having to grind up weed and fire up the volcano is a pain in the ass. Also I’ve stopped using cartridges with pen batteries and went to all in one cartridges. Again more expensive but I break batteries constantly so it evens out, and running out of a charge sucks.
Weed market in NM has gotten ridiculous. Almost 200 dispensaries in the Albuquerque area. 15$ eighths everywhere and dirt cheap concentrates and edibles.
Horrible market for the shops. Great time be a consumer.
WA totally fucked their edibles market by limiting each package to 10 servings of 10mg of thc, because someone’s kid ate half a chocolate bar or something.
I think NV is the same. They only seem to sell edibles in 5mg or 10mg pieces. Here in Northern VA I can get 600mg (50mg x12) delivered from a DC store for $40, with a $30 delivery charge regardless of the size of the order.
CA just recently opened to larger amounts. There is a 25mg x 50 capsul for about $40 which is great, but 25 tends to be way too much for me and there is no way to split it (think of it like a tylenol gelcap.)
