re: Are the effects of marijuana the same in 2019 as they were in 1979? 1989?

What does it sell for these days?

Back in the 70's it was $10/oz according to a friend.

probably because most of the ones I've gotten have been black market ones.

find yourself a good/legit connect or don’t frick with them. Black market stuff can really be trash / not healthy.

OP weed is stronger now, you wouldn’t really need much. But eat too much of an edible and you’ll find yourself having the side effects you mentioned... feeling like you’re almost tripping, even. I speak from personal experience it usually happens when I make a batch of edibles and I keep licking the spoons when I’m done.

Smoking and eating it are two different things though. Smoking you can control more

I will say this: it is very possible to over indulge in the edible department. I know from personal experience. I chalk it up to stupidly and ignorance.

80-200/Oz in legal states
200-350/Oz in non legal states

There are many variables. Indoor / outdoor / greenhouse ... is it organic or not... blah blah. Am I buying from a dispensary or directly from the farmer, etc.

We had so much in Oregon a couple years ago I was paying 400-600 a pound. Most of it was just being given away. Good news for small farmers this year... prices back up to 1600/per

I hate writing posts like this...

So what about edibles? Specifically the 10 mg lollipop ones ? Do you get the same effects as smoking?

---

the effects are mostly similar and it’s hard to describe the differences, but-
Edibles- more of a body high, lasts a lot longer. It’s ok but I only like them when I’m going to be on my couch all day.
Vape- almost the opposite of edibles. You get high, but it feels like somethings missing
Flower- the best IMO. Nothing beats a good joint or bong rip of high quality bud.

If you haven’t indulged in years, I would recommend talking to the dispensary worker and picking out a good strain / pre rolled joint

One day I’ll host a Q&A thread for all of you

Signed - industry professional

I could contribute facts to this discussion, it's a field I'm in where I study a lot of results, try things myself in large quantities..

But the responses in the thread are too fun to laugh at.

My wife had a 10mg gummy in Colorado. About 30 mins after, she sat down on a rock at Chautauqua Park and couldn't get back up. I had a 10mg gummy at the same time and hiked up to the top of the Flat Irons (almost 6 miles round trip and elevation gain of 1400ft). When I got back down, my wife had to be helped up.



She stopped at about where this pic was taken. I hiked to the top of the mountain in the distance.

I really do think it has as much to do with the person's DNA than anything.

I'll eat something I make with Indica (in da couch supposedly) and I'm fricking bouncing off the walls, cutting the grass, washing cars and shite. It's cuckoo and I love it

I am a Christmas Tree right now

Ha ! I hiked Chautauqua 4/5 times a week for 10 years. I literally have a meditation mind exercise where I recreate hikes in my head , remembering every turn, every landmark etc. memories. And that’s one of the two spots I do.
