Since we have a what are you drinking thread, I think we need a what strain are you smoking thread. Hope it's not a Q.
I'll start. I've got 2 kinds currently 1) Cherry Berry, which is a cross between Berry White and Cherry Kush 2) some fire ass Blue Dream. Hard to pick which I like better but leaning towards Cherry Berry. All the Berry White strains I've had are funk!! [Reply]
The MS Contin is the Morphine Sulphate I'm already on. There's different brands & one of the brands does nothing for me.
I used to be on a Fentanyl patch but they had me acting strange. *more than normal anyways. :-)
Most of the seeds I got from Herbies germed up big & fast. I have a couple I planted last week ( Chemdawg ) that are really slow but they're the only ones so far. [Reply]

Patients use Bubba Skywalker successfully for insomnia, anxiety related illnesses such as stress, tension and depression, and for cases of ADD. This strain stimulates the appetite, so it’s indicated for use in cases of eating disorders or appetite suppression due to medication. The alert and creative feeling you get when using this medicine makes it ideal for daytime use and for times when you have to continue critical thinking while being medicated.
Very little effect on the body, Look for another strain if they are looking for relief from muscle aches, strained muscles or migraine headaches. It has a strong effect on the thinking processes, so noobs may feel anxiety because of lack of ability to concentrate on one subject for a long period of time. Moderate dry mouth and eyes (pull your contacts).
Very creative.
On a side note; I'm high as shit. I've been watching Invictus on a Hispanic station and didn't' even realize. 10/10. [Reply]

I'm on 15mg of MS Contin ER now, along with an assortment of other crap.
it takes the edge off but not much more.
on a bad day i generally have double up with MS Contin/7.5 Hydro
Hydro only last a couple of hours though
This hemp oil helps almost as much as anything else but it only works on the burn, not the shock. It's expensive as shit too, $250 per ounce.
cocksucking lawmakers, i hope they all experience chronic pain for themselves some day. [Reply]
Picked up some interesting stuff here recently. Snagged some bubble hash which I mixed with Rubicon (a CBD heavy strain) and got a most delightful body and head high.
I've also picked up some live resin for the first time. The taste is nice but I'm not feeling the $10 per .5g difference between it and wax. [Reply]
Texas Legalizes Medical Marijuana Oils For Epilepsy
Posted: 06/01/2015 4:15 pm EDT Updated: 06/01/2015 5:59 pm EDT
GREG ABBOTT
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) signed a bill Monday legalizing the limited use of marijuana extracts for severe forms of epilepsy.
The law allows the use of cannabis oils that are high in CBD, or cannabidiol, a non-euphoric compound found in the marijuana plant, and low in THC -- the main psychoactive ingredient found in marijuana associated with the "high" sensation -- to treat intractable epilepsy. The state will oversee the regulation and distribution of the cannabis oils, which are only available to patients who have tried at least two traditional epilepsy medications and have not found them to be effective. The patient must also get the approval of two doctors before being able to take advantage of the new law.
While marijuana policy reformers are critical of laws like the one signed today for not providing fuller access to medical marijuana, Heather Fazio, Texas political director for Marijuana Policy Project, still saw today as a historic moment for Texas.
“While this program leaves most patients behind and we’re concerned about its functionality, today is one for the history books," Fazio said. "The Texas Legislature is sending a resounding message: Marijuana is medicine. We commend our Texas lawmakers and look forward to continuing this conversation when the 85th Legislature convenes in 2017.”
Abbot's signing makes Texas the 15th state to allow for limited medical use of marijuana-derived oils. Twenty-three other states have adopted broader laws that allow for some form of legal and regulated cultivation, sale or production of multiple strains of medical marijuana for multiple debilitating conditions. The federal government considers all forms of marijuana to be illegal and classifies the plant as one of the "most dangerous" with no medical value.
CBD has been found to be effective not only at treating epilepsy, but also at stopping metastasis of many kinds of aggressive cancer and at killing cancerous cells found in leukemia patients. But critics of these limited CBD extract bills contend that while support for low-THC/high-CBD laws is growing, the laws are too restrictive, as there is research suggesting that THC may also be effective in treating epilepsy.
According to the bill, at least three CBD oil-dispensing organizations must be approved by the Texas Department of Public Safety by Sept. 1, 2017, provided that at least three dispensary applicants in the state have been approved by that time.
CORRECTION: A previous version of this story, citing an older version of the bill, misstated the state regulators' licensing deadline for dispensing organizations. [Reply]

My 8 year old daughter has epilepsy. I'm hoping that by the time she's old enough to make her own informed decision....that this will be one of the things for her to decide on. [Reply]

If you lived in a medical state I would get a hold of Tony Verzura and see if his Prana line of products would help. [Reply]

I figure in about 5 years medical marijuana is going to be legal in just about every state. It can't happen soon enough imo. [Reply]
