So we put off the weed stores for a while since MA is dragging ass in every way possible, meaning big lines. We finally went a few hours ago. 15-25ish minutes of inside/outside lines.
It had limited flower for non-medical. I got the max - just an eighth - of Gorilla Glue 4. I think I prefer the effect to the oil I talked about above. There seem to be two impacts. The first resulted in my initial impression, which is that it is better than what I grew last year but not by a huge amount. That was more uplifting. Then there was the second, which suggests to me it's a good deal better. It was also more stunning. The record tested THC for this strain is 33% or so. This was 25%, or so spake label. Either way, it's a rather strong and nice relaxing effect.
I suspect this could be a good medical one. I'm not in serious pain, but soreness from doing a full weight lift thing today followed by mowing the lawn, then trimming it vanished, on top of a nagging injury in a muscle around my left elbow. I think I'm growing this and Blue Dream next year.
Pics from internet (my camera stopped working w/ computer when I updated system) that are accurate:
"Hooray!"
"Hooray.....
more!"
And, au natural:
The main point for me on this trip, however, was edibles. I've still got a pile from last summer, which I often cook with if not running through a super-filtering bong.
So...four bottles of 5mg capsules x20, 2 boxes of 5mg candies x20, a bottle of infused oil to cook with, and a bottle of tincture (putting drops under tongue). The candies are pricier by mg but more portable. Capsules in a pocket can get banged up, etc.
This should last quite a long time. As much as I write about this, I mostly don't even smoke until 8 or 9....then have a bit before bed. Some days I get into it and get through a lot. But mostly, it's just a fraction of the evening, back towards the end. One favorite thing about weekends though: if I'm not working when I wake up, every time I wake up at night I take a hit or too off a vape pen and drift away again. Meaning even at 5am. Doesn't work in the week for me. I can function fine, but I know I'm not 100% if I were to take a hit at 5am and get up at 9am to get ready and work. (I work from home, self-employed, with a partially late-shifted schedule)
