Live Stoner Chat New guy again, with some questions!

[7.62]

Hello AFN Members,

I just wanted to re-re-introduce myself.

I am looking to grow some buds for my own medicinal use. I suffer from Anxiety & PTSD!

I was a member here back a few years ago and grew a few different strains and then shit hit the fan with my wife and kid and I stopped smoking for a long while. I tried the crap that doctors prescribed and it did little to help me in times of high anxiety. My old friend gave me some buds and I immediately noticed the calming effects that I received from it.

I have a grow tent, nutes , LED light and items (ph tester, etc.) from the old growing days so as for equipment, I should be good to go.

I have a good place to grow undetected.

I am looking for a few ideas for good strains for a newbie to grow.

I am always amazed at how the effects of bud calms me and ultimately makes me a better person and I hope to grow some to keep me mellow. In fact, I think my old screen name was Mellow Yellow, but I can't remember the details. HAHA

So any input on good strains for beginners would be greatly appreciated. I liked the strains that were offered by Short Stuff, but I don't see them on the seedsman website, so I'll try some others.

Thanks again to all, peace and love to each of you!

Welcome back. I've had good luck with Mephisto, Sweet Seeds, Dutch Passion/Seed Stockers so far on my grows. But there are many more great companies Dinafem, Magic Strains, Delicious Seeds, Synergy Automatic Genetics, etc. to look at.

hi and welcome back perhaps a look at the new cbd varieties is worth a look,trailanimal has a cbd thread if only i could find it.
good luck n keep er lit.

Any of the cbd specific strains would probably help you. I've grown quite a few by Dinafem. 2:1 cbd/thc is a much lighter high. There is no silliness that is normally associated with the thc side. You can do whatever you need to do. 1:1 cbd/thc will have a thc kick. This one I like a lot as I deal with several chronic pain points. I can get high and still have a good amount of cbd flowing.
In regards to the anxiety, this is where one needs to be careful with amount of hits taken. Too many hits of traditional sativa and indica strains can send people with anxiety down the unfortunate rabbit hole. One to two hits would most likely work best.
For sleep, I turn to mostly indica or pure indica strains. Sativa I use for daytime. Hope you get some relief.

Hi @7.62 and welcome back!

I've battled with ptsd and I hope you find relief for yours!

I can't really advise on strains, as everybody is different, (but a good indica couch lock high is what I prefer)!

Hope that you will journal your grow, after you choose/receive your beans!

Thanks all, I am in the US but my state had Medical MJ program, but there are too many restrictions!

So I have to do it under the radar.. Damn politicians!
