I've tried CBD for fun, and I have to say that I prefer it to the THC. It doesn't make you fell sick or asleep, it's relaxing without bad effects and it doesn't affect driving or working. 
I have just smoked some pot. for therapeutical effects on pain relief you need higher quantities of active principles. It's not pot and it's not very cheap. A little bottle of CBD oil here costs about 100€, but it looks like the therapy consists in no more than 3 oil drops in the morning

In the UK, they have medical cannabis clinics, like Alternaleaf. Why is this not a thing everywhere? That would be a lot easier for us to get it, and only those who really need it will get it.

Yes, I find that CBD is helpful with joint pain, its also helpful for getting to sleep. THC is great for dealing with cancer treatment, a real life saver.

It's tolerated but not legal in Holland.

Yes, the Dutch cops take a somewhat more relaxed approach to drugs use. Tongue

Happy to keep it 'rolling' along.

BTW, this is WHY it's called PURPLE Kush

^Congrats! And thanks for keeping this thread going.

Purple Kush would be a great name for a heavy psychedelic band.

I love it when this happens.

Next year I get a second generation plant.

It's interesting how the perspective on weed varies across regions. I agree it can be a safer alternative to some medications. I'm a fan of edibles myself for a smoother experience, and I also love cbd pen thc free. Each to their own, right?

This is approx two Colas from three different plants that I kept. I gave most of my plants to my brother-in-law.
Been hanging for two weeks now. I'll jar it up on the weekend.

TBH, I don't know how this kind of "free/legal access" to dope would've been good or harmful if I was nowadays a Uni student in my 20's and spending the week in the Wasaga Beach area (I preferred Georgian Bay to Lake Huron and  North Bay/Nipissing to Simcoe Lake). I mean legalization  could lead to severe form of addictions of harder stuff, once the THC has got little effect on the body/mind nymore.
EDIT
I prefer Georgian Bay area as well. I have a cousin who lives in Collingwood and have spent tons of time up there. But Mrs. JD and her sister book the holidays and the Grand Bend area is closer to them so that's where we end up for holidays.
As to your comment on shifting crime to acquiring funds for 'legal' drugs I don't necessarily disagree, but it's more likely that those who do are more likely predisposed to that course of action already.
I do wonder though, where are the libertarians shouting  " Great ! Get out of my life and let me be free!" ?

Back in the 70/80's, despite me dealing the stuff for a while (whenever I could find it) to get my share free, it wasn't that easy to find (and illegal - which in a weird sort of way was fun), which also meant we had to go easy on our consumption, which was probably beneficial to our lungs.

This type of easy access is kind of scary (I live in the NL, and coffeee shops have existed for decades), , because IMHO, it probably creates more drug casualties than it did back then. Sure, making it legal does remove the crimes for providing, but does it remove the potential crimes committed to acquire the money to spend for it?

As a teenager I romanticized cannabis a lot, especially because of the inspiration that many musicians allegedly got from smoking it, so I told myself it would make me a better composer. Actually, I don't think it really made a difference in that respect. But it did influence me, albeit not necessarily in a good way. Several times I was stoned during university lessons, and that was really not good. Fortunately, I was quite good at quitting it when necessary, and I never smoked in exam periods. But I did have times when I smoked way too much, and it even caused anxiety attacks with hyper-ventilation and the like. I finally quit it for good in 2011.

I think I would support legalization of cannabis, but one should always consider the problems it can cause.


Well, I can easily see how canabis could help you create "out there" music (especially in the 60/70's, when it was groundbreaking) as it certainly opens "doors of perception", but when it came down to the actual recording and restituting whatever was created, I witnessed plenty of high musicians who thought they'd done a superb performance, but the others around him (high or not) didn't think it was the case.

However, as I stated before in this thread, when I managed to use the stuff to concentrate (instead of letting loose), I could go on study sessions that became very productive. I even twice managed to learn something on my own (well a buddy was there too) that I had missed out on (absent) or that I hadn't grasped during the tear. I never had better grades than in Uni (above 80% average), though I'm not sure I can attribute that feat alone to my canabis consumption.

prefer lifting our pen

Are those the guidelines you were thinking of?
