Headaches when using Sativa edibles.

[Vaporjoe]

Anyone else get headaches when taking 25mg+ edibles of the Sativa variety? I know what you thinking.. I thought it was good for headaches. Well thats why we have strains. Certain strains are good for certain symptoms. I have no issues at all with vaping or using sativa concentrates. I wonder why that is.

That is very odd.
It doesn't do that to me.

25+mg usually makes me forget what I was doing.
I mean really bad.
I will walk off to get a drink to the kitchen and by the time I get there I already forgot why I went into the kitchen.


Maybe try an Indica Strain or a Hybrid to see if it makes a difference.
With the indica you may want to be sure it's bedtime because it makes a lot of people sleepy.

This happened to my wife last summer after we had some cookies. Unfortunately, I don't know what strain was used in the butter, because they were procured by a friend of a friend.

It did not give me a headache, just made me feel warm. Edibles don't usually do much for me though. The wife enjoys them from our local dispensary, but I prefer flower.

When I need to be couched 25mg does it for me. But for some reason that Sativa version just rocks my head. Oddly I dont suffer from headaches at all. I get maybe 3 a year.

Isn't that just great? lol...
To be honest its nice to be in that headspace sometimes. It lets you brain relax and unwind.

Sativa is inherantly a head buzz more than bodily, indica brings a body buzz with a milder head buzz

Yeah im a downer kinda guy... This is why I needed to stop opioids after my surgery. I know me, and I have an addictive personality. If I didn't stop I know I would have had a big big problem. Lucky for me it wasn't the least bit hard to stop when I found MMJ.

The very heavy indica's (30%+ THC) are my favorite when I can find them that high, its never an issue getting a high 20's at any dispensary here. For a state that just started MMJ (NJ) in the last 2 years, our strains are killer.

I have dealt with pain all my life and know just how easy it is to "crave' the opiates and IMO you have made the right and ONLY choice that makes any real sense.

Well you would probably like the Remo Chemo strain, it only weighs in at 25% but it's every bit of that 25%. In this state(Il) they have just legalized recreational and is sold at the same dispensaries as Medical. The demand was so great that now medical patients are coming in to find they are out of most or all strains

That's what they are proposing in my state (Florida)
They are working hard to get "Make it Legal Florida"on the 2020 ballot.

It makes it legal.... for dispensaries (there are about 10 companies that have dispensaries here) to sell to anyone with an ID that says they are 21+

Will it save me the $75 a month for the medical card? (probably not, i'd probably keep the medical card anyway)
Will it save me the $70 to go get the "recommendation" from the MMJ lady? Yes.(Maybe?)

But will that really "save" me $70 three times a year?

Will the few companies that are licensed here realize they have a monopoly and up the prices?
Will the government pull a "California" and tax it at such a rate that the guy on the corner becomes the only affordable option?

Florida MMJ has NO tax.
You better bet that Florida Recreational MJ will have a MASSIVE tax.

I say three times a year because when I go I get my allotment so I don't have to go back for four months.

In Florida you get a "recommendation" at the MMJ place then you go to the dispensary and get as much as you want up to 2 1/2oz flower, 5000mg oral (oil, distillate, etc...), and 5000mg inhalation (disposable vapes, "carts", etc...)

When I first went the lady looked all serious and was like:
"You, know we can only allow you to get a certain amount of flower each 35 days and there is no way to get more, so you are going to need to be sure that 2 1/2 ounces...."

I stopped her right there
I think I may have started laughing.
Who can possibly use that much of the good, wonderful, sticky, sweet mmj bud in 5 weeks?
For those who's counting that's 1/2 oz a week!!!

I use like 1/2 oz a month.
The CBD really helps me make it last
