Related: About this forumI've had my first experience taking a THC tincture
I was snowed-in, yesterday, so I gave it an afternoon test run. The recommended 'starter' dose of 0.25ml was a bit more powerful than I anticipated so I might cut back, a bit, next time.
I'm thinking about adding it to my 'sleepy time' tea, at night. It will take longer to kick in, but that timing might relax me enough to snooze past my usual 4am wake up. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

It wasnt like a green out tho..which I did when I made cookies using a CUP of bud flour. It was more of a drunk...

(2,678 posts)a medical cannabis card. When I informed my wife of my intention of getting one her reply was are FUCKING KIDDING?!! Since that time Ive, just about, weaned myself off of opiates. My wifes skepticism has eased... Im gonna try the tincture as Ive never tried cannabis. Well without smoking or vaping it, that is. 😀😂🥴

(68,357 posts)I just scored a joint called Tiger's Blood. I'm going to try it the next time Mrs. Aristus is out of town. The guy at the cannabis store said it was so strong, he could only smoke half of one. I'm looking forward to seeing if he was right. I can let you know how it worked out, if you like.

(2,678 posts)tincture. Ive tried a CBD tincture I bought from a vapor outlet (gone Out of Business). Im sure an tincture with THC will have a different effect than a tincture with only CBD. Since starting cannabis use in September, my last use quite awhile ago, my sleep has gotten much, MUCH better. Vaping cannabis, Im discovering, does not last too long, and living in an apartment, no smoking, flower is OUT. That leaves using a THC tincture for nighttime use AND one for day.. I hope it lasts longer than does vapes. Flower lasts longer than vapes, which I cant use.

(27,290 posts)I tried what they called a hybrid THC gummie, and it works but not as well as the Indica. I've got a vape pipe and some Pink Kush oil. It works, ok, but I'm not that fond of vaping. I probably just need to get back into the habit, I guess. Kind of the same thing with flower.
I also take CBD and it has worked miracles on my anxiety attacks but hasn't had a significant impact on my insomnia.

(2,678 posts)Ill have to make a trip to the dispensary. The bottle aint much, lasted less than the vape Id used. Its back to vaping it. Also Im just about weaned myself off opioids.
