Current Live Stoners Gossip June/July/August 2017

For example, I was just reading an article today in a weed centric publication where they were talking to so called experts about growing it. Here's what they had to say about ruderalis (autoflowering) strains:


It may have it's limitations...but calling autoflowering strains "ditch weed found in Europe" just shows an ignorance on the subject that pretty much told me these folks were no "experts" in all things cannabis growing. :smoking:

you can say that again mate! What an ignorant fuck,... CBN is not made by the plant directly, it's a degradation product of THC, plain scientific fact,.. and Rudi'-subspecies are found all over the world,...


@GodAmJT ... it's legit, if much more rare (aspergillus),... I think direct to bag drying is a call that depends on your ambient %RH,.. my desert friends find paper bags to be good for slowing overly fast drying of buds in very low RH conditions, where mold is not promoted.... the inside of the bag gets an elevated RH%, a buffer of sorts between the super dry air outside... in higher RH% conditions, say around 40+% RH, because of the possibility of elevating the RH within the bag too high, plus it's still air, another strongly mold promoting condition; it's a risky call,.. and why, when 45-45%RH is ideal for drying, along with moderate temps (upper 60's, low 70's),.. even then, mold can still strike until enough moisture is lost,.. I've had botrytis continue to spread for a few days after harvest, however weakly.... sometimes toward the end of drying I go to paper bags (not the really heavy type) for a couple days to allow the internal moister to even out with the outside areas, before jarring up and testing RH%,...

Dude the Aviator 2 looks pretty legit. 3in1 dry herb, oil, or wax. Ceramic bowl, glass mouth piece. $100 n perfect for noobs. Looking pretty good so far lol

Ya I was looking at the V2 7 series on sale for like 130, same idea. I'll check out that Aviator.

Thanks lol you explained what I couldn't get my brain to text at the time. I think this mostly applies to wet (freshly harvested) weed.

It was an older article from The Cannabist, a cannabis news spin off site from the Denver Post, talking about growing it. Actually from like 2013 or 14, but had shown up as a "related article" link to something else, I think. The guys they were interviewing were a couple co-owners of a medical dispensary.

Cool, I was just curious. There's alot of misinformation out there on the plant. Our ideology isn't the same as others, just as our definition of expert isn't the same as some media sources and publications. Best thing is like you said earlier, do your own research. Even then you may come up with conflicting information, best thing is to apply what fits for you, while keeping the other In mind.

@Waira in no way shape form or fashion am i taking up for the author if that article lol but he may have been referring to some researchers theorize that cbn is more prevalent in Indica species because of the couch lock/sleepiness effects. Maybe that's where he got that from, but just didn't explain him/herself more I dunno lol

Roger that john, I know where you're coming from! And DJ Short is a true Master, dating back to the '70's, right? His body of work and experience speak for themselves, ....... CBN is part of it, but only if it's present, right? Simple fact is, most of the differentiating effects, the "nature" of different strains' buzzes is largely due to the terpene profile; other cannabinoids play their role, yes, many of which are poorly qualified, much less quantified! ...THCV, CBDV, in African and Asian landrace strains are of interest to both rec' smokers and pharma' researchers! But terp's like myrcene, and linalool are often found in higher % in "Indica" strains, vs. "Sativa", and these terp's play a big role in the narco-sleepy effects along with CBN if present.. we've all seen lab reports, and frankly, it's damn rare in significant quantities of the tested buds I see (Santa Cruz Labs is a leader in this industry).... I use quotes because botanically speaking, these are not valid descriptive terms in the current classification scheme of cannabis,.. more conventional terms used for describing the buds and buzz associated with them,...

Skunk: dominant terpenes in this pheno include limonene and pinene. Lime rind with a kushy, fresh forest aftertaste. Almost OG kush in profile.

... and I bet the buzz is uppy-energetic, trippy as hell when heavily toked! ...Citrus, pine aromas hint at this kinda buzz,...I fell it for sure when I smoke Lambsbread, Tangie, Agent Orange, Acapulco Gold, and the like,...

Soaring states of euphoria can be achieved, but the afghan in her puts a person down for the count after a while. Great all around
