(114,750 posts)and by that I mean the plant, itself. I'd like to see the oral forms restricted to medical shops so people will know how much, how often right on their prescription.
Yeah, Dowd was stupid. She failed to ask questions. Had she asked questions (which would have been typical newbie questions), she might have been steered toward a vaporizer or pre rolled joint and instructed in how much, how often.
Personally, I think she killed that candy bar in a couple of bites. They're not huge. Oral pot also lasts a lot longer than a couple of tokes off a joint. It has to be approached a lot more carefully.
While my own preferred ingestion method would most likely be loaded brownies, I'd make them out of unrefined leaves and make them weak. And that's only after I'd eased back into it with a vaporizer. I'd give the confections a miss, thanks, unless I was puking my guts up on chemo.
