Yes, in September and October I had both of my hips replaced. Seems I get chilled to the bone a whole lot easier this year.

Yeah...on you on blood thinners...coz that won't help with the cold.....I've got nerve damage.. when the outdoor temps drop I get up walking John Wayne after a two week cattle drive....

Yep, definitely on blood thinners. I had blood clot issues last year. Getting old can be a real pain.

It's not for cissies..but the alternative isn't good either.....thank heavens for good cannabis pain-killers...

Let me smoke half first..........I'm not sure you could handle a full one........cough..cough...

I mean a happy hippy high might be a bit much when you are ready for bed.......Honest.......

-- probably not! I'm something of a lightweight these days... It's tragic-comic irony; I consume less now than I have in the past by far, while being buried up to my nipp's in bud! Beloved hobbies can do that... Plus you know me, I grow the whole spectrum of effects since I'm a "right tool for the right job" kinda gellie
Bed med's are a perfect example! Gotta mentally calming as well as a warm lead blanky effect...

Thanks GLG, will do...
BTW, does CBD offer any help to you? All in all, I find that it's fairly hit and miss with folks, tokers or not... And the type of extract vs. actual bud or FECO. Pure CBD is missing the entourage effect it seems... And we know that such things/meds are subject to the vagaries of individual physiologies, etc.,...

I had a strain called Atonic made by Nine Fold genetics. It tested at 19% CBD and less than 1% THC. I never did make oil out of it but I would smoke it and not really be satisfied. And cookies it was OK. But I would mix it with death star, 50-50, and make my meds out of them. Was great pain, relief, and motivational at the same time. I have since lost both plants. I have tried to pop some old Atonics that I had with no luck.
So I personally do like CBD strains, but I do have to mix them with THC. I did make crosses with Atonic x THC strain and I really liked them. There’s literally thousands and thousands of packs floating around if you find one that’s been taken care of try them out.

And several of my friends do like the straight up Atonic. Thanks, DBJ.

This follows right in line with my own experience and feedback from others
The two together generally work better than either alone,... what it comes down to is more about the ratios, which usually one has to tinker with to explore and see what works best, using whatever ya got in bud and/or other supplements.
And even so, unless one actually tests their plant, the ratio is still just a guess. Somebody (another forum) a while back did some deeper research into this; seems most CBD/THC crosses hover around 2:1 - 1:2, give or take...it's the normal expression. The actual amount (%'s) produced is a big part too.
I've tried a few CBD/THC auto cultivars so far. The best two were a pheno of Honey Peach CBD and a mate's repro' of Dinafems CBD HazeXL.
Vidamints (Twenty20Mendo) was ok. but felt a bit weak and I didn't like the aroma much...
HPCBD I ran twice more but got pheno's so far off the first it was ridiculous! Seriously, that first one was tops, amazing aroma too, excellent effects; the other two were sorry examples in comparison...

A side note: Sadly, this confirmed something that myself and other long time Sweet Seeds lovers have suspected after getting some really shoddy stuff from them in more recent years ,... I dunno WTF is going on with Sweet, but several cultivars have been showing to be nothing like what the were in the past, and all in the negative direction.

Anyway, when the chemistry is there, I find the effects to be "buzz-lite" with very good pain relief! It helps cut down on NSAID's use and together with them, pain relief went up a couple notches better still ...Naproxyn + CBD/THC bud was better than either alone as well, no surprise, as that's coming at the pain from multiple levels, and they seemed to play well together (no anti-synergistic effects)...

I grew 3 strains from Sweet seeds 15+ years ago. all three were good. I think one was curled Carmela. It was awesome. I was actually trying to get their seeds on my site three or four years ago when Instagram took my account and my conversation with them ended at that point, and I never did get back with them.

Hey @Great Lakes Genetics - since you guys are here, any chance of requesting breeders/strains?

I've been trying to get my hands on seeds from @tobe and his company Healing Path Genetics.

And do you guys know when you might get a restock on @LaughingHyenaSeeds ?

Thanks!

Not sure if you’ve seen the message earlier @LaughingHyenaSeeds mention that we’re waiting on his package that’s stuck in the mail.

And I was just now looking over Healing Path genetics thread. He had sent me an email earlier today. Definitely will check things out a little deeper but it’s hard to get seeds/payments in and out of some of these countries. But we’ll see. Thanks for checking DBJ.
