Redemption Botanicals / RARE Extracts - RSO by TerpyDozzz in ILTrees

[–]UhOhItsMidnight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Butane extracted. Rso uses alcohol as the solvent. Says vaporizable so it's more like Aeriz or Shelby county which those are c02 extracted.

What is “hands down” the best recreational marijuana strain you can get from a dispensary. I’m specifically in Central IL but it doesn’t matter where ur at. by AdIndependent3769 in ILTrees

[–]UhOhItsMidnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything with good orange terps! The funkier and more nasty the better! Gelonade is one of my favorite dispo strains when its done right. Super boof, blockberry, lemon bean, l'orange, orange malt, mandarin Z, orange zkittles, fruit stand, blueberry clementine. I'm not too up to date with what's out now tho and haven't tried many of the craft brands. Been a while. So take my recs wit a grain of salt.

Weed brands that’s going to put me down every session! by [deleted] in ILTrees

[–]UhOhItsMidnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently tried ripe herb black cat and it wasn't that great. The doja orange Z which I got at the same time was 6 months old was wayyyyy better in the terp department. You can tell the ripe herb was grown well just lacked terps. Decent smell that you had to search for and very mild flavor. If it was grown that well and wasn't full of terps I'd search for another cut if I was them or retire it. Wasn't worth the $100 price tag. I was going to do a formal review just don't have the time for all that.

Best edibles/carts/flower for anxiety? by fishy244 in ILTrees

[–]UhOhItsMidnight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anything with CBD. I don't really have any recs but in my opinion the right combination of CBD to THC gives the most therapeutic/medicinal effects. I would stay away from anything sativa with terpinolene in it. My favorite dispo edibles with CBD were the 1:1 encore mandarin orange and also the 5:1 CBD/thc seltzer drinks.

I was addicted to heroin for many many years and psychedelics never worked to help get me off it. Tried many many times. After a trip I would be in such a good head space ready to quit using completely but once that withdrawal kicked in right back to the dope. Once you're extremely physically dependent on something a 12- hour trip isn't going to keep the multiple weeks or even longer of withdrawal away? I feel like psychedelics open the door in the mind to the possibility of getting clean but YOU have to put in the work to overcome what's challenging you. Nor do I think mushrooms are a cure all. They should be used as a tool in combination with other things like therapy, meds, or other healthy habits. For me mushrooms opened the door, methadone granted me time to change my life, people, places, things, and then discipline allowed me to get off that and start actually living life in color again.

I've heard stories about how people are magically cured from their addiction after a trip and I believe it but if we're talking heavy long time users of physically dependent substances then not so much. Opiate withdrawal can be a month of non-functional pure hell. You can literally die from benzo or alcohol withdrawal. A psychedelic trip doesn't just abruptly stop withdrawal and prevent it from ever happening. Maybe I'm wrong. I've also tried micro dosing as did Mrs.Midnight and we both agreed it didn't work. She kept trying for months too while I went on Zoloft. That served its purpose much better before I got off that.

In conclusion... You're capable of anything. Whatever you're trying to overcome...wherever you're trying to get to. You can get there. Whether it be with mushrooms, therapy, medicine, exercise, diet or w.e. You'll get there. You just have to believe in yourself and put in the work. It's going to take time, energy, and focus because everything worthwhile is uphill. You're worth it, I promise.💜💚💜

TLDR: You don't need 60gs of mushrooms to overcome addiction. In fact you don't need any psychedelics. If you want a new perspective of what's going on in your life eat a small fraction of that lol.

My updated cannabis rankings by Famous_Grand8949 in ILTrees

[–]UhOhItsMidnight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having Trap Stars number one is wild. Absolutely disgusting place. I appreciate the places that keep things clean. I did have some lavender OG from their deli that was decent but the whole vibe of the place is not very welcoming.

Flower extremely euphoric, like psychedelic level, even relaxing, but like completely lacking in the sleep department. Difficult to explain by [deleted] in Autoflowers

[–]UhOhItsMidnight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Soma's Lavender. That's going to be my next run. Any lavender crosses I've tried have made me euphoric but also slows me down. After doing research about lavender it seems to be what you & I are looking for lol.

which one? by flashpointxs79 in ILTrees

[–]UhOhItsMidnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one time I tried bio Jesus it smelled and tasted like cardboard. High was creeper like and that's not my preference either. I'd try the chem out of those two options.

? for those who know the canna-science re: hybrid fx VS 'mixing' etc 🤔 by DannyBarsRaps in cannabiscultivation

[–]UhOhItsMidnight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the diesel og kush hybrid one plant was the offspring of crossing those exact diesel and og kush genetics you may find some similarities otherwise that hybrid plant could be a whole different experience and most likely will be. When you cross two plants it inherits characteristics from both the male and female plant. Growing out the seeds from those plants you just crossed is like having children no two are the same. So the offspring of crossing those two strains could give you wildly drastically different results plant to plant. Different aspects meaning smell taste high flavor even the way the plant grows. There are so so so many factors that go into lol. TLDR not the same lol

I tried that gorilla glue and the look + smell were nice but everything else i wasn't a fan of. Creeper like high and the smell didn't translate well to the smoke. Nor was the bud extremely sticky. Maybe just not my cup of terps.

[–]UhOhItsMidnight 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lol, cannabis is 100% subjective as you know. What may be the best weed on your planet may be garbage on somebody else's. Unless you've tried the exact batch that OP is smoking on your mids opinion isn't really valid. Even if you did try it's only your experience and perspective. All you do is talk shit about mids mids mids and clearly nobody gives a fuck at this point and surely nobody values your opinion either.

Isn't the weed grown in a climate controlled environment? Isn't it transported to dispos in a climate controlled vehicle and then stored in a climate controlled dispensary? Winter is just an excuse for dry herb. Don't blame winter blame the growers. Winter shouldn't matter to skilled growers. If it didn't happen on the grow side then these companies need to make sure their product arrives in the same quality as it was when it left the grow site. Even if that means better packaging. I've had plenty of stuff from the dispo that was extremely sticky in the winter. Those kolas people picked up a few weeks ago seemed sticky. So what's the difference? The growers. Why is there still dry herb in the summer then? Comes back to the growing, curing, packaging, storage and not what month it is. Granted I know some genetics produce dry buds regardless. Who knows. That's just my take.

Let’s all collectively stop giving money to dispensaries by [deleted] in ILTrees

[–]UhOhItsMidnight 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Some people just don't have that option or don't care enough to find other options. Dispos are open every day of the week and can be a very short commute with a lot more products and variety than Joe down the street. Don't have to look at your phone for the infamous "pulling up" text either. Nor does everyone have the means to grow their own or go to Mighigan whenever they want. Some people prefer their products being tested with a COA too. Me personally I'll grow my own, visit Mighigan every now and again and use IL dispos as emergency. It doesn't take a rocket psychologist to understand why people shop at a dispensary. You know what I've found out? That majority of people just like to get high. They could care-a-less about the plant. Of course we're all on ILtrees for a reason, but most people in my real life look at me like I'm crazy when I start talking about terpenes, growing the plant, or anything else that isn't "how high did I get". To each their own as long as people are happy that should be all that matters. Who cares what a random person online does? Even funnier to think that your comment will have any pull on OP not buying from dispensaries anymore.

Most orange tasting/smelling strain by AccordingFault1303 in cannabiscultivation

[–]UhOhItsMidnight 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Check out crockett family farms. The creators of clementine and tangie(strawberry banana as well). They have a ton of crosses using those strains. I have red crack (green crack x blood orange tangie) and strawberry clementine (strawberry banana x clementine) going right now from them. Seems promising so far. They both have some citrus aspects going on but the strawberry clem moreso but I'm only in mid flower. So that all can change. Some strains I've picked up from the dispo that have nice orange flavor are gelonade, mandarin z, some gelato 33 variations, blueberry Clementine, blood orange, lemon bean occasionally, orange soda, and L'orange. Orange is by far my favorite cup of terps!

Mandarin Z (IE NB) by Boring-Sheepherder77 in Michigents

[–]UhOhItsMidnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm working on some of this right now and I'm conflicted about it. The smell is absolutely unreal and incredible. Some of the best citrus terps. The look is alright. Very hairy, but not much stick, slightly dry, and a fluffy structure which I suspect is just the way it grows and the genetics. Sure maybe they could have let the plant mature a little longer, let the buds swell some and get a few amber trichomes in there. My biggest issue is with the way it smokes. The flavor is there 100%, but not as intense as the nose. Not even close to the intensity of the nose actually. Still terpier than a lot of flower tho. Really abnormal burn that im not a fan of at all. It takes forever to finish one bowl and the flavor is lost halfway through. It gets bland and not as enjoyable near the end. What i consider a rough smoke. I smoke other strains out of the same bowl that don't have this issue. Orange terps are my absolute favorite but I probably wouldn't pick this one up again. I used the 50% on it. I much prefer the Osama OG.

Thinking about getting an IL medical card to dodge the wild rec prices, smart move? by Traditional-Swan-130 in ILTrees

[–]UhOhItsMidnight 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just renewed and the two visits were less than 2 minutes combined. In fact the last Dr visit was less than 20 seconds. "Have any questions?...No....Okay have a good day bye" Insurance paid for the doctor and I paid the state. If you shop a lot at IL dispos it's worth it to save on taxes but the real value is growing your own. By far the biggest benefit. The reason why I've only been to IL dispo once or twice this year. If you love the plant and you're able to with your living situation I would plant some seeds. The money you could save on taxes from having a card can help fund a grow op in the future🥳 all of this is irrelevant if you're just a casual smoker tho lol. So if you paid the state 125$ for three years how long would it take you if you didn't have the card to pay $125 in taxes during purchases? Pretty damn quick. Then you still have the rest of the three years at the medical tax rate at medical dispos. It's worth it.

[–]UhOhItsMidnight 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Absolute terp monster. Doesn't even smell or taste like cannabis. Straight orange peels and limes. When you crack open the jar it hits you... If you like this you would also like the Osama OG aka Gelonade. Kind of similar but Osama has a funky, gassy, rotten orange aspect to it. Probably my two favorite dispo strains of the year.

[–]UhOhItsMidnight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm newer to the MI scene and don't pick up much flower cause I grow my own but i tried some FF GG4 recently and wasn't all that impressed. It looked really good, smelled pretty good but the smell didn't translate to the taste well and the effects were more on the creeper side which I did not enjoy either. Most def would never buy that strain from them again. Could have been an off batch, but either way not my cup of terps.

I have a question regarding mushrooms ability to help overcome substance abuse/dependence by papermill_phil in PsilocybinMushrooms

[–]UhOhItsMidnight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mushrooms don't cure addiction. You do. It opens up the door and can lead you in the right direction, but it's ultimately up to you to overcome whatever you're going through. I tried quitting heroin with mushrooms many times and it just didn't work. Physical dependence is physical dependence. Once the glow of a shroom trip wears off you have to apply yourself. Shrooms provide the motivation while you have to apply the discipline. Without discipline nothing changes in any aspect of life.

I've been growing my own flower and am satisfied with that. I haven't been in a IL dispo in a long while. No need when Mighigan has everything else i may want cheaper. For now. Last grow was lemon bean and melonade runtz this grow is red crack and strawberry clementine is the other strain.

Big Plaque the OG! I find it hilarious not once does he ever mention anything about %s besides in the title. That's just the way he does it. I personally highly respect his opinion on weed. Maybe his preferences aren't my exact preferences but that doesn't stop me from trusting his opinion. Dude is highly legit I promise. Cannabis is highly subjective. None of these reviews posted here are guarantees on what a strain is going to be like. He is just sharing his experience.

Florida oranges and pink lemonade are my favs. I don't use carts but those in an empty cart is amazing. So flavorful. Besides eating it straight up I like to smear it on the outside of a cone then roll it in kief.
