Do You Have a Favorite Strain of 420 You Like?

[LivingnLA]

MedMen is the Beverly Hills of the pot World. They generally have good strains. Their prices are about a 1/4 more than most though.

 

Lol! They want to be the "Apple" of legal marijuana.

Well considering that medmen has an estimated worth of 1.6 billion that ain't too far from the truth. That and looking like an apple store. Here Comes Corporate America!!

Hahaha I had hoped that somehow you were just unfazed with that heaping amount through some quirk of your biology, but that makes more sense - enjoy and be well!

Got some new caramels that ARE 50 mg each and some sour apple hybrids that are 75 mg each - double checked before I indulge tonight.

Canada’s Senate on Thursday voted to legalize recreational marijuana, clearing a major hurdle that puts the country on track to become the first Group of Seven nation to permit national use of the drug.

 

The upper chamber Senate voted 56-30 in favor of the legislation but included amendments that the House of Commons will need to decide on before the law can be passed.

 

While there is not yet a definite date for when marijuana will be available for sale, the Senate was one of the last significant obstacles standing in the way of legalization as a number of Conservative senators oppose the bill.

 

The amendments proposed by the Senate include tighter advertising restrictions and giving the provinces say over whether Canadians can grow marijuana at home. The government’s legislation would allow Canadians to grow up to four plants at home for personal use.

 

Although legalization has already been delayed from the government’s initially planned July launch, some provinces and police forces have argued they need more time. The provinces have been left in charge establishing how and where marijuana will be sold.

 

The Liberals, which made legalizing recreational use part of their successful 2015 election campaign, say the new law would keep marijuana out of the hands of underage users and reduce related crime.

 

Canadian marijuana companies like Canopy Growth Corp, Aphria Inc, Horizons Marijuana Life Sciences ETF and Aurora Cannabis Inc have been at the center of investor frenzy surrounding attempts to legalize marijuana for recreational use nationwide.

After Justin and Donald stop their arm wrestlin', maybe Justin can give Donald a big kiss and convince him not to oppose the bipartisan bill that MAY be headed to his desk regarding pot. It allows every state to decide for itself whether to allow pot without interference by the federal government. I'm not even sure that it will make it past our legislatures but just in case a deep-tongue kiss from Justin couldn't hurt.

He's already decided to support legalization because he wants to win reelection in 2020 and knows that will be a hard requirement for anyone to win.

Thanks. That's great. We'll see what happens. Maybe all the southerners are envisioning huge pot farms that they can harvest (using their illegal farm workers).

If I had to guess about his motives, it's likely a real estate play. I know investors here in SoCal who have pushed very hard for legalization because they're doing very well with various real estate projects and they want to really scale up. It's land grab time and already rich white people want to get a whole lot richer so they need legalization now.

Wow winding this back around to the OP......thank you for all the input, especially the MedMen recommendation and now I find there's one less than a half mile from the rental car place. My flight lands at 5p and I'm not too anxious to get on the 405 going south to OC then so I'm going to be a kid in a candy store and hit up the dispensary that is right there.

 

For me it's going to be like being in a strip club. Will they be offended if I'm drooling while I'm there????????

As a follow-up, what an amazing place. It's like the Apple Store for weed. Complete sensory overload for me. I did get turned onto these little disposable vape pens that are pre-loaded with 200 hits. I guess there's a new law that requires them to put expiration dates on everything they sell so these vapes were 70% off. Even though they only had Bubble Gum flavored left it still had a pretty good kick to it.

I enjoy kpens. They are very portable, reliable, and discreet. There are many cartridge options. My wife loves them too.

I didn't really want to get anything that I had to re-fill so these disposable ones are great. To get them at 70% off was amazing. I grabbed a handful and just rubber banded them together with a bunch of pens as I'm always paranoid about TSA even though that's not what they're looking for.

Be careful about the "rubber banding them together" because the multiple small batteries and microelectronics in the vape pens all bunched together like that could throw off their scanner and flag your bag for deeper inspection. Precheck is your friend since it generally causes them to assume you're safe even for flags like that.

[tanman4u]

Pre-Check is the best thing to happen to air travel in a long while.

I've never even tried 420 but if the midterms don't go well I'm adding a line item to my budget! I live in a state that allows recreational use.

[Bucky]

In California, all non-compliant (standard testing, packaging, ingredient) product must be off the shelves by June 30.

There are fire sales in many of the dispensaries this weekend !

[+ Funguy]

Anybody with experience taking edibles (with hard candies or gummy-type, sealed in their plastic) thru TSA (pre-check ok).

[Jameslamassage]

The dispensary I go to is literally Inside a Mobile Trailer in a random Auto Body parking lot in the valley. I get crazy good deals on fire bud. LOL I would never go anywhere else at this point. As others have mentioned, Girl Scout cookies is my go to strain for libido enhancement, or any other purple strains. I love Green Crack sativa for cleaning the house, and Gorilla Glue is usually pretty bomb no matter where you get it. I avoid Blue Dream because it tends to make the heart race, but every batch and person is different of course. Jack Herer is great for creativity, and sour strains tend to be good for nausea from my experience. If you see too many orange hairs on the flower it was likely harvested too early, and the best way to judge a bud is to break it in half and smell it

I'm not sure how it affects asthma, but I have a friend who has bronchitis often and he says vaping doesn't cause it the way smoking the herb does.

A 24-year-old man was killed in Texas last week when his vape pen exploded — slicing open his carotid artery and leaving his grandmother’s car covered in blood.

 

William Brown died after his left internal carotid artery was severed due to trauma from the exploding vape pen he just bought from Smoke & Vape DZ in Keller, a town just north of Fort Worth, his distraught grandmother told WFAA.

 

“He popped it and it exploded, and that’s when it shot across his mouth,” Alice Brown told the station.

 

Brown claimed the device’s battery malfunctioned, melting bits of plastic from her car to the vape pen — which launched the charred debris into her grandson’s face and neck, leaving her car soaked in blood. Brown died at John Peter Smith Hospital two days later, she said.

 

“When they X-rayed him, they found the stem, the metal embedded to where the blood flows up to the brain,” Brown continued. “I miss him already, and knowing he won’t open that door and come through it ever again is the hardest part.”

 

Funeral services for Brown, a licensed electrician, are scheduled for later this week, his grandmother said.

 

Brown, who wasn’t a regular smoker, purchased the device on Jan. 27 while on the way to the bank, the grandmother told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. He suffered from asthma and was told that a specialized vape pen might help improve his breathing, she told the newspaper.

 

After the blast, William Brown managed to crawl out of the car and toward the trunk, where he collapsed on the pavement. A nearby witness called an ambulance, she said, and a medical examiner later ruled that his cause of death was penetrating trauma from an exploding vaporizer pen, making him at least the second person in the United States to be killed by an exploding e-cigarette, according to the newspaper.

 

Brown, a high school graduate who loved fixing up his Mazda RX8, was preparing to celebrate his birthday in just two weeks, his grandmother said.

 

“It just hurts so bad,” she told the Star-Telegram. “Now he’ll never see that birthday. It’s a waste of the thing he could have accomplished.”

 

She continued: “It just all seems so unreal. He was running around doing his thing at 24 and now he’s gone.”

 

Brown said an investigator in the case told her the device’s battery caused the deadly explosion. She told the newspaper she searched her vehicle and found a piece of the battery with its serial number.

 

“That’s the important part,” she told the newspaper. “That’s what the investigator said he needed … I just hope, if anything, I hope it stops someone from [smoking electronic cigarettes]. I don’t know how many more people will have to die.”

 

A store employee who witnessed the incident, meanwhile, told the Dallas Morning News that the vaporizer was not purchased at the location. Authorities told the employee not to discuss details of Brown’s death.

 

The newspaper also cited US Fire Administration statistics from 2017 showing that 133 acute injuries from e-cigarettes, vaporizers and other similar devices were reported between 2009 and 2016. Most of the fires and explosions occurred while the device was being used or stored in a pocket and none had resulted in death, according to the report.

 

But a Florida man named Tallmadge D’Elia, 38, suffered multiple injuries to his face when he was killed by an exploding e-cigarette last May. A medical examiner’s report listed his cause of death as a “projectile wound of the head,” leaving him with burns on about 80 percent of his body, the Star-Telegram reports.

 

One of the pieces removed from D’Elia’s head featured the logo of Smok-E Mountain Mech Works, a company based in the Philippines, according to the New York Times.

A slight tangent - anyone tried 'shotgun' with an escort? I guess it helps if the escort likes weed - saw it recently in a porno and it was kind of a turn on!

Just curious to see if there are escorts that enjoy smoking weed and "shotgunning" with their clients... a lot say no PnP?
