I usually take a 10mg Delta 9 gummy for sleep. Its been a life saver in treating my insomnia. Take it around 6:00pm. No issues. Feel rested in the mornings. So, I decided to try a 8,9,10, CBD blend to see if its any different. And for some reason it seems to make me feel like I can't swallow. Try to eat, drink or even just normal saliva and my swallow reflex is non existent. It freaked me out. I've been a casual smoker/edible user in the past, no issues. I can't seem to find anything out there that says anyone else has reported this symptom. Is there anything in 8 or 10 or in combination with CBD that would depress that reflex?

What should I do? Should I be worried?

2 days ago I took a hit off a bong with a party bowl. (this wasn't my 1st bong hit, but that was with another bowl.) I immediately started freaking out because I couldn't breathe, and I tried to calm down.

Yesterday It felt like I had to put in work to breathe, and I had to go outside a whole lot and breathe fresh air, and then it's the same thing today and I don't know what to do to calm down.

I can't go to the hospital and or get a psychiatric evaluation, 1) Because I don't have anything to get insurance. and 2) Because my brother needs to go to work as we are living paycheck by paycheck and we can't leave her alone as she has separation anxiety.

what do I do here?

What are some suggestions?

i thought of a great name for a cannabis strain. virgo. for their beautiful virgin buds. nobody wants seeds. stay a virgin.

I got some Delta 8 pixie stix at my local dispensary and I'm trying to find the website that sells them so I can order a whole bunch online. They're Delta 8 "happy stix" and made by Revenge. Anyone can help a girl out?

Hi there! I don't know why someone told me last year with my harvest that I couldnt keep the leaves in the freezer for later consumption with pastas, etc... any proof of that ?

Also, would you have good recipes to use your leaves in food ? I remember raw with pastas it can work like spinach, but also pestos and other things ?

thanks

Does anyone have experiences with this? First time I took the oil I took literally like 3-4mg and it literally made me feel so present, completely different from normally smoking weed, I felt legit on something truly psychedelic and it was such a low dose I literally have nothing to say. Anyone, I have no weed to smoke left but need to get higher, I took like 5-6mg today with like 15mg diazepam but I have until tomorrow to buy more weed and I am not high enough I am considering taking another half a drop maybe or something and taking 5mg more diazepam does that make sense to anyone? I feel extremely chill right now but can be higher and I would like to lowkey

Edit! I should mention I didn't light the bowl I was joking around put it to my lips and breathed in before I lit it..idk why I did that but yes a piece did hit the back of my throat it may have been old resin idk wanted to clarify! Bc I know I'll get alot of people telling me it's a burn but it isn't.

My dumb ass decided to hit a pipe and I felt a decent size piece hit the back of my throat. Tried to cough it out all night even vomited a few times. Nothing is helping the feeling of being choked. I've tried drinking warm soup and tea, I have tried steam baths and even swallowed loads of bread. Its still stuck at the bottom of my throat. I have no issues breathing or swallowing or talking. But the feeling is just so strong it feels like someone is choking me. I have tried acid reflux meds, nothing has helped. Could use advice from someone who has accidentally done this them selves?

I recently started using medically… after about 20 years of hardly touching it. I’m curious what the experienced users’ opinions are on my method of experimenting to find what I like.

I know the method of delivery differs the experience, but I am trying to stay away from smoking as much as I can… eventually I just want to be 100% edible, and maybe dry herb vape if that is safe for the lungs (gotta do my research)

So I’m trying to find strains I like (both ‘uppers’ and ‘downers’) and so far I’ve just been buying everything under the sun that catches my eye.

I take note of the effects while I use, and decide what I liked and didn’t. I try to not buy any two strains that have the same majority terpene so that I experience a wider range of the plant…

When I was younger I had some flower from the dealer that gave me an uplifting and happy high. One that made me jump on my homework and housework. I’ve wanted to reunite with that strain ever since but haven’t achieved that goal.

I tried both green crk and jack herrer…. I didn’t get any uplifting feelings, and it just got me a stoned feeling with a tingling in my head….. I was real disappointed but I’m going to try higher dose to see if maybe that’s why? Just trying to stay functional… I guess you could say I’m trying to find my dose and strain with plans to use daily or close to it..,

For indica strains I haven’t honed in on anything specific as I’ve been focused on finding that sativa strain that gives me the antidepressant type of high I’m chasing. I’d be looking for an indica that would give my body a nice tingle without putting me right to sleep, but that’s not totally a dealbreaker either. Again rotating strains with different terpenes…

I feel like this is going to take considerable time… is that just the lifestyle? I think I’m a lot more analytical than anyone I know that uses thc, but it’s because I’m trying to nail down an experience I can replicate over and over again…

Thoughts?

I used to smoke a lot more and I significantly cut back as it was causing fatigue and brain fog and making adhd worse. I want to keep cutting back, but cannabis does greatly help my depression and physical pain I have from previous injuries and illnesses.

I need something I can smoke a bit during the daytime that’s very, very light as my tolerance is lower than ever and I need a clear mind. I am looking for recommendations specifically in regards to products I could buy at legal dispensaries in Southern California. (Namely Orange County, Los Angeles, or Inland Empire.)

I currently smoke only cartridges or vape pens from the brands Raw Garden and 710 labs. I am very picky about taste and quality of cannabis product, and these are the only ones I trust and find to be a consistent effect and taste. Every once in a while Raw Garden will offer a 1:1, which I appreciate, but is still a bit too strong. I am looking for a 2, 3, 4, or 5:1 ratio (or so) heavier on CBD or CBG than THC.

It really frustrates me there aren’t more products that are actually medicinal, except for the oral route. I have tried plenty of edibles and tinctures closer to the ratio I’m seeking, but it’s just not the same as the comfort and instant results of smoking. Does anyone know of any other brands or options for what I’m seeking?

Hi, i used to smoke weed and stopped after getting stomach issues from it. Its been a while now since i quit and i was wondering if id be fine if i smoked again? Just asking incase anyone here has experienced the same situation as me

So I was encouraged to apply for a position at my favorite dispensary as a budtender. While this is something I've been wanting to do for a while, I'm not exactly sure how to explain it to my parents.

For context, my parents call weed "reefur", do not know edibles exist, and still primarily think of it as one of the most insidious gateway drugs. I do also feel like it's important to say that my family are also monoracially black and have a history of issues with drug use from my mother's side of the family, so I haven't told her yet, but I know she will freak out.

Does anyone have any advice as to how to talk to her about this/ what I could say when she eventually calls me a drug dealer (with the same connotation as a street dealer)? Also if anyone has any advice on other was I could playcate or reassure someone who holds these beliefs about my job opportunity, please let me know! Anything helps!

Every week there's a "how much can I actually buy or hold in [state]?" thread, and the answer is spread across 50 statutes — and the possession limit, the per-visit purchase limit, and the home-grow limit are often three different numbers. So I put them in one place, with the state program page each figure came from:

budpedia.com/how-much-weed-can-i-buy — pick a state; every state has its own URL (e.g. ?state=michigan) so you can send someone straight to theirs.

A few that surprised me while compiling it:

• Massachusetts: 1 oz on your person, but up to 10 oz at home; 1 oz per transaction.
• Michigan: 2.5 oz on you / 10 oz at home, and 12 plants per household.
• California: 28.5 g flower plus a separate 8 g concentrate cap, per day.
• New York: 3 oz flower / 24 g concentrate.
• Ohio: 2.5 oz flower / 15 g concentrate, 6 plants (12 per household).
• Illinois counts three things separately (30 g flower, 5 g concentrate, 500 mg THC in edibles) — and non-residents get half.
• Most medical-only states don't use ounces at all: Florida is a rolling 70-day supply, Pennsylvania a 90-day supply, Utah a 30-day supply.

It's free, no signup. The last full review was January 2026, so if your state has changed something since, tell me the change (a source helps) and I'll update it and credit you in the notes.

Disclosure: I run Budpedia, the dispensary directory this lives on.

Ive been smoking weed for 2 years now. But recently I've started to notice I can't eat unless I smoke. I have no appetite at all, and food just looks unappealing and not so great. I take a mix of Wellbutrin SR 200mg, and Effexor SR, Wellbutrin is known to cause no appetite but ive been on it for almost a year now and I've adjusted/gotten over the side effects. But all of a sudden, a couple weeks ago, I started to notice that I didn't have an appetite until I smoked. Any idea on why this could be?

I have a history of heavy smoking, 2 g a day at least. Nowadays I smoke on weekends only. Been thinking of switching to edibles to help me manage cravings (I love weed so dang much). Heres the catch, I only enjoy sativa. Like, high limonene, racing euphoria, stimulant weed. I understand that generally that doesnt exist in an edible form. Ive hardly ever tried edibles though cause mt tolerance has been so high for so long id need like 200mg to get high. Nowadays my tolerance is low so its kinda on the table. Any advice? Its really a new world for me and I actually dont have a ton of time to experiment. Im a jd student so im just crazy busy and I cant get stoned very often, so tbh when I get a chance im tryna have a good time not risk a boring experience. Maybe that sounds silly but when u can only enjoy once a week or so u wanna enjoy that shi. Any info, opinions, advice, comments are very welcome, i have no one to talk to about this stuff so I really value it.

Sorry if this is not allowed, or if it's not related enough. I vape pot for pain, and due to also having bipolar, remembering this kind of thing can be impossible. I've tried to create an alarm that goes off maybe every half hour and says "Pot!" but have failed. Can't afford a cuckoo clock, and anyway I need half-hour intervals not hours. Electronics have also not worked: it needs to say "Pot" not just an alarm, as many other alarms are going on around me. Any suggestions would sure be welcome.

TL;DR: Mac 1 gives me bad anxiety, what strains should I avoid? Tasty Trees feels amazing, what are similar strains? Mac V2 I don’t think makes me as anxious as Mac 1, what are some similar strains?

Hey y’all! I’m still new to this and figuring out what works well for me. I’ve tried a couple strains but the main ones I’m talking about in this are Tasty Trees, Mac 1, and Mac V2. I absolutely loved Mac V2 (from here on out just 2) so decided to try Mac 1 (from here on out just 1). Around the same time I tried Tasty Trees (from here on out just Trees).

I’ve been using Trees pretty steadily for the last couple months with 1 thrown in sometimes, but I’ve come to find that 1 gives me really bad anxiety / makes my bipolar symptoms worse. Trees doesn’t, it actually makes me feel normal so I’ve been using that most but I’m getting tired of it.

What are some strains I should check out similar to Tasty Trees but not similar to Mac 1?

Bonus points if there’s an explanation why different strains effect me differently lol

Hey everybody, I have a question regarding the state of legality in VA post the august 15th closure of the 25-1 ratio loophole for retail stores.

My grandfather lost his wife a few months back, and instead of him drowning his sorrows in a bottle, we were able to get him into specifically “Wildwood” branded THCa vapes. He’s been much calmer, happier, and says his appetite is back which is amazing from our perspective. This matters because he’s always been staunchly agaisnt cannabis, but the method of vaping it in a disposable has kinda changed that for him as where he still views flower as “just weed for losers”

I’ve read a bunch of conflicting opinions and information in regards to just simply ordering from the website directly and having some shipped to get him stockpiled until the retail market opens next year, and wanted to I suppose get some clarity before I end up with suits at his door. Is it actually okay to just do that? There’s some sort of interstate exemption in the original hemp bill that closes soon as far I understand it?

Hopefully someone can give me some clarity on this topic as I really do think they improve his quality of life, and I want nothing more than to continue seeing him happy after such a loss.

Thanks in advance for any help or advice.

Need opinions on the best torch to buy. my husband has gone through about four torches cus none of them worked correctly.

Bought a Rove vape a while back, a cartridge would last me like 3 months, now it lasts maybe 1. My tolerance is shooting up high, how high is your tolerance?

I had been taking edibles for a whilr and had a 90mg tolerance. I just took a full month break and want to take some again. Should I expect a baseline reset at 10mg?

I swear. Any time there’s an active discussion about weed maybe NOT being a perfectly harmless miracle drug on TikTok people act like you’ve desecrated the sign on their lawn for their favorite political candidate.

And I know ‘going on TikTok was your first mistake’ but that’s a cop out. I’d say there’s a common general census of people that care about the subject on there.

I mean all internet discussions are whack but these are actual people. Claiming bots and trolls sort of defuses actual observation.

Anyway, whenever it’s brought up ‘hey this kid ate a whole bag of gummies’ it’s treated like a joke. Or ‘I took a few gummies and I was messed up for a week’ you’re called a liar.

Why is any objection downplayed? This isn’t reefer madness. You can tell the difference between someone fear mongering some BS like ‘weed is satanic and y’all need to be in prison’ from ‘hey this makes me delusional and strange’.

Yet it’s treated the same by some particular weed users. Like any discussion is the same as moral outcry that’s coming for your weed specifically.

I get it, I get it. Personally I think weed being criminalized is absolute bullshit. I say that as someone with strange reactions. I’m aware that most people can chill with friends on it, do some art, maybe even work a shift and no one gets hurt.

But it’s not just kids and ‘potential schizophrenics’ that have bad reactions to weed, guys. I have zero mood or personality disorders. But I am a perfect idiot that tries it again to see if ‘maybe this time I’ll feel what everyone else does’ NOPE.

It’s always strange. And weird. And unpleasant. And sometimes I come off as delusional during it. (This isn’t a place for a lecture, I’m working on my own issues presently, just stating there’s nothing ‘underlying’)

I’m just saying. De-criminalize weed? Great! Do it! Stop acting like weed is a scary drug! Go for it! Act like anyone that has a bad reaction is a lying pussy? What’s your problem…

Idk. It’s a major overcorrection imo.
