It’s interesting reading about everyone complaining about needing more caffeine. I recently had to reduce my tolerance to caffeine because even having >500mg/day wasn’t getting me energized. I’ve since learned that if 60-120mg (1-2 cups of strong tea) don’t do it, then nothing will.

Yesterday was particularly bad. My anxiety was even worse than most Mondays. When it’s like that, nothing can get me going. With the lack of energy comes the lack of productivity and with that comes the impostor syndrome. From there: survival mode!

I wonder if caffeine and weed use are correlated.

I guess if you're by youself, that can work.......a little weak.

I've never been seasick. Damn flat bottomed Amfib to a destroyer and some rough storms, cracked hull by #1 boiler room on the destroyer in attempting to avoiding a typhoon, and never got sick..........maybe a bit 'discomfort' with that storm. Maintaining a steam plant in rough weather can be VERY tricky. So many things can go wrong very quickly. Your casulity control skills needs to be quite good and you need to 'know' your plant. I wasn't skurred, but I sure AF was apprehensive!
My point is my little 3rd class engineman wuz VERY 'THINTHITIVE' to sea sickness. We weren't past #1 bouy and he's sick! He's not faking it either. That white Irish boy could get green......between early Spock green anf Heman Munster green. It was just plain FUNNY AF! I was very thinly manned and everyone was important and HAD to pull their weight FULLY! I had to break him of this, so he became the butt of all our sea sickness pranks. The boy was sure getting hammered!
I did break him, though. He was the guy I picked to go with me UNDER #2 elevator to disconnect the stancion linkages so they could be lowered. Some DAMN BROWNSHOE backed into one and bent it. It's not an easy job in the best of weather, but getting on the catwalk, underneath the elevator, when the ship is about 300 miles from The Horn, it adds a lot to everything! This kid was 'skurred shitless'. I'm being as professional as possible, after a tiny gig at him to break the tension. This kid was just too damned skurred to be sick! After we were finisged and back in my office to warm up with coffee, I pointed out to him that he was not sick. A light bulb came on in him! LOL! All he could say, "Well, f*ck me!" and began laughing.
He was able ro, and relished, screwing with the 'thinthitive' shipmates lie we did with him.

I was "seasick" just one time, and it was in very calm seas as well, but then again it could have been the fact we had just completed a Duvall Crawl in Key West and the majority of my sweat and blood was alcohol!!!! LOL I was already yakking hard before the helo ride out to the ship! I was supposed to have been on the shore detachment but the third class who was supposed to be on the boat detachment never showed his sorry arse nor anyone else from my shop, so I had no choice but to go. I made sure those slacker sobs paid dearly, the XO wanted them on awol charges, I convinced him to just put them on ramp watch for a month(February)back up north!!!

I am still extremely new and inexperienced to this whole thing so.....

For us, it was a stealth, ease, convenience thing. The reviews stating it was near scent free was really the selling point for me. I picked @WildBill 's brain several times and a couple other guys before buying it. It is absolutely worth the money due to how easy it is to use. It's fantastic in the sense that you can use as little as 1g of flower and infuse that just to see how potent it is. The only downside is the time factor but again, set it and forget it. Run errands etc. It's ready when you get back. 3 hours decarb, 3 hours infuse. Nearly scent free on both and man, EASY. TO. USE.

Stealth is always the priority. Second? Can I use it.
Ease of use is huge for me. This rig is dead simple. Power/start cycle button and "M" selector button. Bam, I can handle that!

I just got a tCheck machine on the good word of @Fermented_Fruitz .

I ran one batch so far and got 3.6mg/ml, going to need more data points to decide if the device is accurate or not. The gummies made should have 2mg each but they seem to hit much stronger according to my patient. She likes ~10mg or so but says 2 of the 2mg candies is enough. Interesting but anecdotal.

Long story short, the Ardent machines are fantastic.

If u wanna see that it’s working reinfuse that same oil and then test again! If the new number is higher u know it’s working right! If u are in legal state where u can send to a lab then I’d do that to compare the results! Don’t waste the money buying their expansion kit to test flowers! I bought 1 and checked inside box to see exactly what it came with and then checked amazon! Realized for like $50-60 I could get the stuff individually off Amazon and would save $100+ BUT ALSO I WOULD GET ENOUGH SUPPLIES TO DO 100 TESTS FOR THE $60!

I turned off the 660nm, 730nm and the 3000k strip and just left the full spectrum lights on and what I thought was red is actually a purple hue!!!!!

The General Tso's is *way* better this time than it was last time, they must have changed where they order lunch from.
