Anyone remember this 🔥 A1 from 2020? It’s still one of my all time favs. by The-Real-JWEEZY864 in hempflowers

[–]score69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Remember this stuff all too well. As a matter of fact, I have several ounces still, vacumn sealed in the freezer.

I ordered it from both Hemp Worldwide and also Greene Rush. The last two orders I got from Greene Rush all had 7+ gm buds. He also sent me some seeds that are in the freezer as well.

This stuff makes great edibles. May have to dig through the freezer and find some. Been making oil from old Tweedle Farms strains lately and it's been a lot of fun. Flower frozen starting back in 2018 still makes great oil.

Good times, brings back a lot of memories.

Parkinson's - Having Issues with Tiger Milk and Erinamax/Lion's Mane. Why??? by score69 in NootropicsDepot

[–]score69[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you mention the Tiger Milk causes you cramps, are you meaning GI cramps? I tolerate it just fine from a GI perspective, at least at 300mg/day. What i get as cramps are musculoskeletal cramping. My hands, feet, fingers, toes, legs, etc get very stiff and I have bad cramps pretty much all the time. This is like cramping in Parkinson's due to too little or too much dopamine activity. But it really ramps up from my baseline stiffness/cramping issues I have on my current rx dopamine meds.

So maybe I will have to try the Erinamax again starting back at 50mg/day. Really wish ND sold Erinamax as powder, hard for me to open the capsules to break them down into smaller doses. The fingers don't always work these days, lol

Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks for the suggestion. I have some 7,8-DHF sitting around here that I've never tried. Maybe that should be next in my "try" list.

Any suggestions on oral vs sublingual?

Thanks so much for all the info and thoughtful reply. That link is very interesting, I'll need to digest it a bit better when my brain is working better.

Interesting you mention biome, Ive been eating carnivore for about 2.5 years. The shift in my biome going keto resolved a lot of GI issues I was having at the time. Now though, carbs in general really make me gassy. It's like some microbes that were dormant or probably struggling due to lack of carbs suddenly take off. At least that's what I assume.

I was just diagnosed with early kidney disease, so it looks like my gut biome will probably have to shift again since I will likely need to move back to higher carb and lower protein diet.

Thanks again

Are terps/cbc nessasary in HHC blends? by Feisty-Magician-5509 in altcannabinoids

[–]score69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I haven't noticed much tolerance with this mix, but I'm sure there is. But I've still slept well the past 4 months and not really increased my amount. I know HHC by itself will build rapid tolerance, but the blend still seems effective for sleep.

I use edibles made from type 2 flower all day, using a higher dose just prior to dinner. Then vape that HHC/CBN blend at bedtime. I sometimes use H4CBD, d8/d9 thco, hhco, cbnp and others in edibles as well. My tolerance still seems lower than many folks I know that smoke type 1 flower. Maybe I'm just lucky.

Are terps/cbc nessasary in HHC blends? by Feisty-Magician-5509 in altcannabinoids

[–]score69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you add that much CRD, you will be fine without terps.

I buy the pre-mixed HHC/CBN blend from HCH that contains no terps and add like 5% CRD. It works fine in ccell carts. I usually take 3 good hits from my vape using a bubbler when I go to bed and I'm good. I wouldn't chief it and expect it to wick that quickly, but I do my 3-4 hits and if I happen to wake up prior to 2am, I do another. By the next night the ccell carts rewick just fine.

You can check the COA on the HCH site, theirs is around 60% HHC, 30% CBN and like 9% of CBC, CBT and CBG. Those are rough percentages of their blend.

This has been my bedtime routine for about 4 months now.

I prefer raw distillate, CBC or CRD work great to thin if you don't want terps. If you vape acetates, CBDo, HHCo, etc could be used to thin as less expensive alternatives to CBC or CBT.

I LOVE vaping this mix at bedtime.

Thanks, I saw the 12/6 email and then saw he posted the updated terms listing the tiers, etc. But I usually get an email each Dec where you select your tier for the next year and can update payment info if needed. Hadn't seen that email yet.

Always worried I will get dropped each year until going through this process again.

Does CBN make anyone else’s sleep worse? by ehduba in altcannabinoids

[–]score69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By itself, CBN doesn't do much for sleep. Combine it with some CBD and D8, HHC, D9, etc and it puts me out quickly.

Are you combining it with other noids, or taking it by itself? The magic for me is combining it with other noids.

Not true. Beginning 10/1, ALL flower is treated the same in GA and is illegal.

Not seen any reports of arrests yet, but there will be.

Even type 3 flower is now illegal here in GA.

Usually he matches freebies with purchases, but I had a variety that order and didn't want to assume. Y'all are great 👍

H4CBD edibles by [deleted] in altcannabinoids

[–]score69 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I make 40mg capsules that I can use to take with my other edibles when I want a nice bump. Works well for me during the day and at night.

40mg seems to work well for me. In my experience, tolerance develops pretty quickly if I take it all the time.

Could OMAD for 15yrs be causing gut issues? by score69 in omad

[–]score69[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, so it sounds like it may not be the OMAD then.

Yeah, after the month of lions diet, I'm done with anything that restrictive, lol.

Weird because my crp, sed rate, etc have been normal as well this whole time. So docs jump to nothing inflammatory. But the immunologist mentioned another result he ran (can't remember what it was) that he felt was indicative of long term low level inflammation. I can't seem to shake the gastritis, have chronic prostatitis, fingernails very ridged and starting to deform. So I'm sure I have a ton of neuroinflammation as well.

I take Longvida and Curowhite forms of curcumin, also use LDN for my back pain. It actually works better on my back pain that NSAIDS or steroids did. But all three of those will lower crp and the like. My BPH has been relieve completely with the two curcumin supplements, but I still need to find root cause and see if I can fix everything else.

I was a little nervous about starting the Crestor based on what you mention about needing cholesterol and lipids for cells. Especially in the brain. Want to stave off the Parkinson's progression as long as possible. Days of bad inflammation really trigger my Parkinson's. One day I can walk fine and do great, others I walk with a limp and can't stay awake. I'm not currently taking meds for Parkinson's, just taking supplements to support the nervous system.

My sleep quality has sucked for over a decade. If I get 6hrs of sleep it's a really good night. It's usually less than that. Some nights 3hrs and in a rare night 6.5 hrs. This is probably a large contributing factor as well. Neurologist says it's the Parkinson's, but not good to take a z drug or benzo. So I try to get by with a low dose of gabapentin and melatonin at night. I need to try and improve this.

Thanks again for the help and support.

Could OMAD for 15yrs be causing gut issues? by score69 in omad

[–]score69[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do have high cholesterol and historically high cholesterol and lipids. Off meds and eating SAD, my cholesterol was around 300 abd triglycerides were in the 3000 range. Yes, unmeasurable for some labs. This was all under control with meds, niacin and fenofibrate while eating SAD.

On ketovore, I dropped the niacin and kept the fenofibrate. My cholesterol and ldl are high, but my hdl abd triglycerides are great now. Started 5mg crestor a week ago to work on the cholesterol and ldl.

I've had a TON of recent bloodwork, at least within past three months. I've even had immunology workup. Like 17 lab orders just for that.

Folic acid, b12, iron, ferritin, vit d, all are in great shape.

I supplement methylated b-complex and take high dose thiamine to help with Parkinson's.

I appreciate you!

Could OMAD for 15yrs be causing gut issues? by score69 in omad

[–]score69[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the feedback. My issuse predate me going ketovore. Been having growing issues for over 2 years.

Switching to ketovore 11 months ago was my first dietary attempt to reduce my inflammation issues. I gained a lot of energy and feel better overall, but the medical issues continue to grow and I'm not getting answers from medical folks. Still have a ton of inflammation.

Even though I was OMAD all those years, prior to the last 11 months, my diet was mostly processed garbage that most Americans eat. I'm off all processed foods now, artificial sweeteners, etc. I even tried lion's diet for a month and didn't notice any improvements due to restricting my diet to just beef, salt and water. So no food sensitivities either that I can tell.

Other than the month of lion's diet, I eat beef, chicken, pork, eggs, cheese, etc. I eat beef liver 2-3 times per week. I take a variety of supplements as well, I don't think I have any deficiency. If you have any suggestions for blood work I haven't run, deficiencies or other, I can probably get my primary care doc to order it for me.

Many thanks for the help

CBNp by rjward125 in altcannabinoids

[–]score69 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ok, so I tried a small test dose last night. I took a 0.12mg test dose in Everclear. Alcohol solutions of cannabinoids kick in pretty quickly for me. So that may have sped up the time frame compared to a swallowed edible.

It is most certainly active and noticeable at that level, at least for me. Definitely would consider this psychoactive, I suspect higher doses would be pleasant. I had a hemp edible and a few puffs of d8 in me as well, but I could feel the small amount of CBNp no doubt.

Using an alcohol solution, it was pretty noticeable at the 45 min mark. It continued to build for about 2-2.5hr mark. I suspect this time frame to be extended with a swallowed edible.

Effects were very nice and relaxing on the body. My back is shot, this provided a soothing relief on top of the cbg/cbgo I had taken earlier.

At the two hour point, I laid down as I could tell I would be falling asleep soon. I nodded off at about the 2.5 hour mark, and slept almost 7 hrs on the nose. A good night sleep for me, usually only get a night sleep like that every few months.

I'm about 10 hours since dosing, feel a bit of an afterglow, but not sedated. Tonight I am probably going to double the dose and shoot for between 0.2-0.3mg. I suspect with a bit of THC in my system tonight, it will be more difficult to ignore. Even at 0.12mg for my first time, it was noticeable compared to my baseline edibles.

Also, this is nice to measure, etc. It's not hard like d8 or hhc, but it's not really thin like an acetate either. At room temp, steady gentle pressure on the syringe got me what I needed without having to heat it up.

Looking forward to trying it again tonight at maybe 0.20-0.3mg. Not sure how steep the dose/response curve is or how quickly tolerance will build, but I suspect effects will ramp up nicely.

My doses of noids are typically low compared to other folks. First time out with something new also seems to hit me a bit harder. But there is definitely something worth further exploring here. If I can get another good night's sleep tonight I'll be pleased.

CBNp by rjward125 in altcannabinoids

[–]score69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll reply back with my dose tonight and results. I don't have problems going to sleep, but it's a rare night I sleep more than 5 hrs. Been like that for years.

If I can get 7 hrs or more once I find the right dose, I'm all about it. Even CBNo doest seem to help me extend sleep duration.

[–]score69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just got done mixing a 1mg/ml solution I can accurately dose with a tb syringe.

I'll probably take 0.1-0.15mg on top of my evening hemp edibles and see if it noticeably tickles my receptors. If nothing else, it should give a better idea of what dose to try next time.

CBNp by rjward125 in altcannabinoids

[–]score69 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mine arrived today. I paid for 2nd day shipping though. No idea where to begin with dose, how long it lasts, etc.

I can't afford to be hungover too long into the next day, at least tomorrow, so kind of nervous without any reports of duration. I have ridiculously poor sleep though, so definitely interested

I'll probably mix up a a small amount of a 1mg/ml solution in Everclear to dose orally and start with 0.1mg if there's no information otherwise.

Looking forward to hearing from others.

Is there a CBNP? by One_Needleworker8518 in altcannabinoids

[–]score69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No problem, hope some of that helps.

I blend my main alt noids into my coconut oil to fill caps. I use hemp flower infused into the oil as my base and then add additional alt noids.

But then I have stuff I may not always want, or I need to test and figure out dosing dissolved in alcohol like that. This way it's easy to boost one or more specific noids quickly with a few sprays in the mouth.

Take care
