GrandDaddyPurp ~ Amethyst by Curaleaf 19%

As you know I am a sucker for anything purp. This is no exception. Surprisingly, This is not very aromatic out of the jar however once I got it into the vaporizer the terpenes popped right out... A nice indica buzz with relaxed muscles, pain reducing, and not overly heady......side note...this batch had a few tiny seeds in it.....doesn't bother me....just a heads up....limited run of this grown...hopefully they grow more as this was great......

"Granddaddy Purple (or GDP) is a famous indica cross between Purple Urkle and Big Bud. This California staple inherits a complex grape and berry aroma from its Purple Urkle parent
Its potent psychoactive effects are clearly detectable in both mind and body, delivering a fusion of cerebral euphoria and physical relaxation. While your thoughts may float in a dreamy buzz, your body is more likely to find itself fixed in one spot for the duration of GDP’s effects." ~ Leafly.com

Curaleaf Cinnamon Sugar Cookies 3pk..

 

Curaleaf ~ 3pk Cinnamon Cookies 43.5 mg each... (yummy...i got too excited..i ate one before i took the picture) ..
I have been wanting to try the dispensary edibles since i joined... not really sure why I hadn't yet...price...my love of flower...i make my own...etc...whatever. I finally did. I chose the 3 pack of cinnamon sugar cookies. They each contain 43.5 MG of THC. Since I have never tried the cookies before I started with only half a cookie...i wanted to ensure I didn't over do it..being my first tie with this type..the cookies are decent sized and quite delicious. You can't really taste the cannabis like you can when I make mine (i'm sure i'm doing it incorrectly lol), but the effects are slow and steady. Took about an hour and a half before i could really feel anything... I was able to just sit and enjoy a movie without getting up 15 times, I felt very relaxed.  My muscle tension was also noticeably decreased.   I am looking forward to trying some other selections..The dispensaries also offer different types of single cookies for those who just want to try one. ...I'm really glad I finally decided to give it a try.

Dawg's Waltz ~ Jehana by Theraplant

My favorite sleep/ couchlock inducing strain...a very heavy indica..if you struggle with insomnia you may wanna give this a shot. I made some honey with this strain for night time use and also had some flower for the vaporizer..definitely picking up some more of this one. a nighttime must have! pic to be posted later today..has anyone tried this? how does it affect you? .

"Dawgz Waltz ~ Dawg’s Waltz combines the purple hues and flavors of Purple Urkle... with the skunky aroma and powerful effects of Tres Dawg to create an extremely pungent hybrid. The dense buds have large calyxes and smell of spiced grape and skunky diesel. This hybrid is a favorite among those who struggle with chronic pain and insomnia, or enjoy the relaxing, couch-locked effects typical of most indica-dominant blends." ~ Leafly.com...

Terpenes: A-Pinene <.1%, B-Pinene <.1%, B-Myrcene <.1%, Ocimene <.1%, Linalool <.1%, Limonene <.1%, B-Caryphyllene .4%, Humulene .1%
THC: .3% - THCA: 24.7%
CBD: <.1% - CBDA: .1%

CBN: <.1% - CBC: <.1%
THCV: <.1%

Grape Stomper ~ Elioraca by Theraplant ~ 27%

As soon as I saw this being reviewed on Dabbin Dad i had to try it. I am a sucker for purps...ever since I started medicating I have always been on the lookout for any kind of purple strain.  This is a heady sativa hybrid great for daytime use. I can really feel the effects after the balloon full of vapor. The flavor on this one really must be enjoyed in a vaporizer or you miss the point.  If you burn this you can not savor the candy like flavor.  Since this strain is a sativa heavy hybrid I will probably not use this one at night.  I highly recommend trying a bit before this one disappears from your local dispensary !! I'm sure it will go fast.



"Also called "Sour Grapes," Grape Stomper is a craft hybrid strain created by Gage Green Seeds. A complex cross between breeder JojoRizo’s Purple Elephant and breeder Elite Seeds’ Chemdawg Sour Diesel, Grape Stomper has quite the pedigree. Slightly sativa-dominant, the effects of this strain are felt most in the head. In true hybrid form, however, a pleasant tingly-body sensation usually appears after a few minutes. This is a sociable strain that's for consumers who would like pain relief while out and about. As the name suggests, Grape Stomper also features a strong, fruity aroma similar to grape candy."  ~ Leafly.com

Grateful for Cannabis

i finally have a medication with no negative side effects after 30+ years of pharmaceuticals and self-medicating to ease my BPD, PTSD, IBS, and arthritis ..all in one form..no pills breaking down my system and making me feel like a zombie making me fat and vomiting every day.... i don't even take aspirin anymore...and ..i have not felt this free in 30 years...i almost feel like i can get out and meet new people again..

Nicole Kush ~ INDICOL Q. ~ a strain to relax by

Going old school today..one hitter...vape is charging...chilling on the deck In The HEAT...yay...No work..hhhmmmmmmm what ever will I do? Nicole Kush ..a perfectly skunky sweet, uplifting pain killing, calming strain..A heavy hitter for sure...that should make for a relaxing day with the puppies. No anxiety yet today...let's hope it stays this way!!!!

feeling really good today. Had a slight stumble yesterday morning with a stupid anxiety attack kinda blew the rest of my day even though i was over it quickly..today i'm gonna try a new approach..ease my way into the day... thankfully i don't have a lot to do today, but i have to be clear headed enough to play softball tonight. so happy HOT day...get out there and enjoy some sunshine it really does make you feel better!!!!!  stay medicated and hydrated !!! lol.. 

Sapphire ~ Cherry Thunderfuck T74% Hybrid Wax

 finally got back from a long overdue trip to the dispensary. My first instinct is to try everything all at once...but i will try to refrain... because i loved the Sapphire bud of much i decided to go with the Sapphire Wax first.. I must say i was disappointed to find out it wasn't a crumble..the CT rules for packaging can be confusing only allowing state names and abbreviations for the concentrates..i guess i should have read it a bit more closely...anyway...the wax is a thinner consistency that some of those i have had in the past...the taste is very earthy and sourish..i prefer that to the bright citrusy flavors actually people most don't...but i am weird like that...lol...the effects took a few minutes to sink in, but once it did..i felt an immediate warmth and a heavy eyelid feeling that let me know it was working..within 20 minutes i was feeling great..this is definitely a mood enhancer for me...i need that.    When i had the bud/flower version of this it didn't hit me quite as hard as the wax...with the bud i felt a bit more energized..different phenotype i guess maybe it was a while back....the wax gives me more of an indica buzz..could also be that i'm getting the flu..got my dabber loaded up and i'm ready for my day...bring it on.....

PEACE

Making Cookies AGAIN...

INGREDIENTS

• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 large egg
• 4 tablespoons dark brown sugar, lightly packed
• 1/2 cup canna~butter OR canna~coconut oil
• 1 and 1/2 cups oat flour (regular oats blended)
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• Pinch of salt
• 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
• Optional: coarse sea salt

i used 8g of ABV for butter~coconut oil mixture cause that's what i had...

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Take regular old fashioned oats or quick oats and blend them until they resemble a flour or powder in a blender or food processor.
2. Combine the vanilla extract, large egg, and brown sugar in a bowl. Melt the coconut oil and let it cool slightly before adding to the bowl. Beat everything together until just combined.
3. Stir in the oat flour (measured after blending NOT before), baking soda, cinnamon (scale this amount to taste preferences), and salt.
4. Stir until just combined and then fold in the dark chocolate chips.
5. Chill the dough for at least one hour.
6. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
7. Using a cookie scoop (and pack these in the scoop very tightly or they may crumble), scoop out balls of the dough onto a parchment lined cookie sheet. Press a few more chocolate chips in the tops if desired.
8. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned around the edges.
9. Remove and allow to stay on the baking sheet for another 2 minutes before removing to a wire cooling rack.
10. Enjoy!

last of the indicol D BLACK SHADOW ....a sad night...

Had a little bit of Indicol D left and made some rosin...can't wait to head back to Arrow Alternative Care and see what I can pick up next.. I really haven't had too much to blog about no new products to try and no new devices/equipment...Really have to tighten up the budget lately so I have been trying to get the most out of my medicine before I go back to the dispensary.. I will use every last drop...I will vape the flowers then make butter with the ABV and make cookies or another edible to extend my stash..Sometimes I will press the buds and make rosin and then use the chips to make edibles...or make kief into just about anything.....I really like to experiment with cannabis and try new things..if i use glass to smoke anything i will rinse out the glass piece after heavy use and save the alcohol (repeated rinses) until it is really dark in the mason jar and then evaporate it into oil..just random thoughts for the night on how to save a little bit of money...my paycheck can not come soon enough!!! ugh...

Insomnia Buster ~ Nicole Kush with Kedina Wax rolled in kief..

 Kedina XW Wax ball rolled in Nicole Kush kief...placed gently on a bed of Nicole Kush .

.This is one potent bowl...... I am feeling a great night sleep coming on. Ever since I started the MMJ program a few months ago I have been sleeping so much better. The racing thoughts have been drastically reduced...i don't wake up at hour intervals anymore, i can actually sleep past 4:30am, i can actually get a pretty normal 7-8 hours unless my dogs get off the bed...lol...i wake up feeling refreshed and not the tired mess I used to be...It's still not perfect but I am learning how to use the different strains and methods to properly "medicate" and to not just have my head in the clouds all day...although I do love that feeling...the sleep factor alone is making me feel so much better..my concentration levels while working have improved, it also feels like my thought process has improved..as well as my neck and back pain.... well enough of a rant for this evening.. gonna go catch some serious zzzzzzzzzzz's

PEACE and Good Night

Nicole Kush ~ AGL Indicol Q

Strain: ,"Nicole Kush (MK Ultra x Blueberry x Shishkaberry) x Kosher Kush"...

First Impression: best aroma of the 4 strains i picked up a few weeks ago...sweetest and strongest

Taste: very terpy, citrusy, a bit skunky but sweet
Effect: heavy eyelids right away, relaxed, able to focus, not flighty..feeling kind of silly (that's rare)
Rosin Test: pass ..a great return  .1g pressed a nice sized dab in return...

I guess it depends on the website you use as reference, also depends on the phenotype of the strain but it seems..Nicole Kush is either 75/25 Sativa heavy or 75/25 Indica heavy...well i guess i'll find out soon enough.. this strain boasts  a 21.5% THC and a few terpenes present A-Pinene 0.2%, B-pinene 0.2% limonene .5% linaool .1% and B-carophyllene .1%

Usually a Sativa heavy hybrid will make me a little edgy and get energy bursts but i don't feel that with this one..i'm guessing what I have here is more of an Indica heavy hybrid...not sure but I am enjoying the ride so far...started off with a hit from the tiny Wadelph before i switched to the Arizer desktop vape...Not overly hungry...feeling even keeled..not anxious...and i can still get work done...looking forward to a nice relaxing evening... i was feeling rather antsy before igot medicated but now i'm not...so this one is a keeper...really great buzz and not feeling too much pain and zero anxiety...yay...

"Nicole Kush is the first new cannabis strain to be released by DNA Genetics in collaboration with Marimberos.
The sativa-dominant strain, Nicole, can trace it's lineage back to a carefully bred plant in Mexico's Durango desert almost ten years ago.  With a pedigree that includes such classic strains as MK Ultra, Shiskaberry and Blueberry, Nicole was then crossed with DNA Genetics legendary Kosher Kush to create this exciting new strain - Nicole Kush.
DNA and Marimberos' test grows of Nicole Kush, conducted in a legal environment, showed insane, over-the-top resin production.  A blanket of sticky trichomes coats the plants;  Nicole Kush is ideal for extractions.
Flavours and aromas are fruity like blueberries and wine or even grape jam.
A lovely new strain from DNA and Marimberos that is a certainty to be popular with connoisseur cannabis ~ puresativa.com

• Nicole (Marimberos) x Kosher Kush (DNA Genetics)
• 75% Sativa / 25% Indica

"Nicole Kush is a 75/25 indica-dominant strain that will satisfy your need for potency as well as flavor. Kosher Kush from DNA Genetics teamed up with the Nicole indica from Marimberos to create a dynamic variety that captures sweet and woody flavors with a touch of lemon. Deep relaxation overtakes the body, leaving the mind calm and introspective. Its buds bloom with chunky calyxes that may take on a stunning blue hue as they mature, depending on the phenotype. A delight for novice cultivators, Nicole Kush is a hardy, low-maintenance plant that gives way to large yields so long as it’s raised indoors, in a greenhouse, or in a warm Mediterranean climate."~ leafly.com

My version of anti-inflammatory gummies

****this is an untested recipe: i will be following up to let you know how they turn out.****

**** I repeat only a test recipe****

List of Ingredients:

~4 packets Knox unflavored gelatin.....updated from 2        (8 grams protein and 20 calories total)
~2 oz black cherry or tart cherry juice                                 (for anti inflammatory properties)
~2 cups tea ..I made my own blend         (lemon ginger, spicy ginger, 3 slices ginger, 2 slice turmeric,                                                                  dried rose hips,  dried chamomile flowers)
~1-2 grams decarboxylated kief              i used BLACK SHADOW INDICOL D kief
~2 tablespoons medicated honey             (very easy to make)


Make Tea: 3 cups water..2 tea bags of your choice.....I added slices of fresh ginger and turmeric (powdered is ok if it's all you have)..dried rose hips and chamomile flower..they are known for anti-inflammatory and calming benefits. also because i already had them...bring to a boil ..let steep for 10 minutes or more..boil down to 2 cups or drink the rest......you really want to concentrate the flavors...

decarboxylate kief:  if you skip this step your kief will not have the THC activated

 bake in oven 10-15 minutes at 240 deg F

 put on timer..do not over cook you will lose your THC/CBD content

add to 2 tbsp. medicated honey stir well....

strain tea into mason jar and add honey mixture...shake or stir until incorporated

tea mixture with kief and medicated honey stirred in

sprinkle pkts of gelatin over 2 oz cold fruit juice mix well and let sit for a min. it will become like 

jelly it calls for 2 packets but i'm thinking i should have used all 4..for a firmer gummy...

.pour tea mixture back into sauce pan bring to a boil

once juice is jelled turn down heat add juice mixture and keep stirring with whisk until smooth

 simmering  about 5 minutes you want the gelatin to be smooth not gritty

ladle into silicone molds or a glass baking dish

ran out of room..

put a very thin layer in the glass pyrex dish easy to cut..

refrigerate until hardened at least 4 hours... 

the only thing i'm concerned with is dosing..since they are for me it doesn't really matter....

1 gram / 1000 mg  kief + 2 medicated tbsp honey i'm guessing is about 40 mg per tbsp..i made it so it's not exact. 

so 1080 mg kief ..not sure what the THC equivalent is...

so if i divide what i have into 20 pieces 8 in the tray 12 slices from the pyrex..

.i'm gonna approximate each dose at 50 mg kief (not THC) each...so extremely weak...lol...

.I'm gonna need some more scientific equipment ;) 

it sucks only having a little bit to work with...if i mess up a recipe the buds gone forever..

i hope they work...look for an update tomorrow and i will let you know how they affected me..

2:20 NOTES:

~   I would use more gelatin next time gummies are bit bit more jello like than a stable gummy

~taste is mild not overly sweetened, i was going for that..if you like sweet gummies just add more sugar or honey

~i ate two small squares from the pyrex at 2:20 ..i will check in again soon to see how I feel. 

6pm still feel medicated head wise ..back and neck pain kicking up a bit so i will have another gummy square..no anxiety at all and ready to just relax ..

so I guess the recipe needs to be modified a bit...more gelatin...a bit more kief or maybe wax next time...but i really like the natural approach away from the boxed Jello because of the sugar and artificial colors...but try new things..you won't know what will work unless you try it...

PEACE
