Growing cannabis during quarantine

I am glad those days are behind us, and I can go to the cannabis dispensary again

I first tried my hand at growing cannabis plants during the COVID lockdown. My roommate Ben and I were trapped in our apartment for several months. To fight off cabin fever and keep ourselves sane, we played games, watched movies, and started several new hobbies. I tried my hand at painting, only to find I wasn’t very good at it. Ben remodeled his bedroom, and decorated the entire house… but he wasn’t very good at that, either. Then he came across an old tin he had, which was filled with cannabis seeds. We had some old flower pots and a handful of marijuana seeds, so we decided to compete and see who grew the best weed. If you have never tried your hand at growing cannabis, let me tell you it takes a lot of time and effort, with minimal results. Ben and I were both rank amateurs with cannabis horticulture, and we never would have tried if we weren’t going crazy from being cooped up in quarantine. It took several weeks to get right, but all of the marijuana we produced was substandard at best. Most of the marijuana plants were so weak and filled with seeds that they were unfit for smoking at all. Although we got no usable cannabis out of the experiment, at least it was a fun project to kill the time. I am glad those days are behind us, and I can go to the cannabis dispensary again. I love to smoke high quality marijuana, but I’m just no good at growing it myself.

I've started using cannabis edibles more often

I can pull out a piece of candy at work and no one will have any idea what’s in it

I started to develop back problems and I was working for an animal rescue in my early twenties. I had to lift dogs a lot throughout the day and would often lift with my back instead of my legs. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize what sort of long-term damage I was causing at the time. Every single time I would lift with my back I think I was giving myself a little bit of damage to my spine. After so many years of this I started to develop sciatic problems. The sciatic nerve must have gotten damaged at some point. Even though I have a job these days where I sit at a computer, sitting in the chair at a weird angle sometimes causes my sciatic nerve to get inflamed. And then I have physical pain going from the base of my back down the length of my left leg. One of the things that helps with the pain the most is cannabis. I try to take ibuprofen and acetaminophen, but you can only take so much of either of those medications before you cause physical damage to your body. Luckily with cannabis and THC you don’t have to worry about damaging your body when you consume either. On top of that, I can use cannabis edibles regardless of where I’m at or where I’m stationed. I can pull out a piece of candy at work and no one will have any idea what’s in it. Not only is it discreet, but a cannabis edible kicks in and lasts for at least 4 hours. Sometimes when you smoke cannabis it’ll wear off within 30 to 60 minutes if it isn’t particularly strong. But with cannabis edibles, I can consume them throughout the afternoon and not worry about needing more until I get home from work.

Cannabis flower products are probably the most popular in my state

I heard recently that over 40% of adults in the United States admit to using cannabis.

Granted, I don’t know if that’s on a regular basis or just a few times a month, but it’s still an amazing thing to think about as a cannabis user myself.

I want to see the stigma on cannabis use erode in every conceivable capacity. I grew up in an environment of alcoholism. I’ll never forget the anti-drug classes that I had to attend in the late 90s and early 2000s where cannabis was compared to heroin and crack cocaine. It was really unfortunate at the time seeing how much cannabis was demonized by the elite and the establishment. Even the culture around me was largely restrictive regarding marijuana use. But these days that’s completely different. So many people use cannabis and it’s becoming more and more accepted as years go by. As far as legal cannabis products go at campus dispensaries, I think the most popular cannabis products these days are cannabis flower products. That’s the whole plant version of weed. A lot of people just want to buy buds of cannabis and roll them up into joints. I buy cannabis flower products but I usually put them in a dry herb vaporizer instead. I just think that my cannabis flower buds last a lot longer when I use them in a vaporizer versus buying rolling papers and smoking joints and blunts. It’s really nice to smoke a cannabis joint from time to time, but it’s really wasteful with a lot of the plant going up in smoke. That’s why cannabis dry herb vaporizers are so efficient.

Taking home cannabis is only part of it

When I moved here, I was pretty excited about the fact that recreational marijuana was legal.

Cannabis has been something that I’ve enjoyed since I first discovered it in my early 20’s.

But alas, I was never able to really find a consistent way to procure it. I hated when I had to search out weed through means that made me afraid. On top of the anxiety, I never really knew what I was getting. I have a preference for sativa products but I never knew what I was getting. It wasn’t like I could go shopping for marijuana for sale and talk to a knowledgeable advisor about what I wanted. I mean, I had no idea what the THC content even was. I was just lucky if I came home with cannabis and not oregano. So that meant that my recreational marijuana use was pretty hit and miss for the last 15 years or so. The state I had been living in since college doesn’t even offer medical marijuana. So when I took this job opportunity, it wasn’t lost on me that I could actually go shopping for marijuana for sale. I barely was even moved into my place before I took the short walk down to the local cannabis spot. It was even better than I had expected to be honest. I knew that I was coming home with marijuana products that was a certainty. But what I wasn’t expecting was to find such a cool spot to just be. The local cannabis spot is full of good people and good vibes. So while I’m taking home cannabis after shopping for marijuana for sale, I’m also taking home a buzz that comes from those awesome vibrations.

Comfort level at the cannabis dispensary surprises

It was like she was actually doing something

I finally just had to take my sister by the hand and walk her right into the cannabis dispensary that’s right down the street from where I live. My sister visits often as it’s only about a four hour drive for her to get to me. I live in a city so I don’t have a car. But my sister is living the suburban life of a wife and mother. She has a part time gig online but the rest of the time she’s focused on her kids and the house. Yet, she’s sort of been drifting into a funk the last few years. Her thinking seems to be focused all around what she isn’t instead of what she is. I’m a few years older than my sister so there is a big brother part to my concern. However, my sister has always been sort of afraid of taking the least bit of chance for joy. I knew that sativa products would help her with that. Or at least, I figured since we share a lot of DNA, it would help her. I know that marijuana products have been so beneficial for me. I’m so thankful that I found them in college. That was when I first discovered recreational marijuana. But my sister passed on all that and was really at school to get married. That’s just the truth and she’d agree with that. Fortunately, she ended up meeting her soulmate so it worked out. Yet, she’s been down on herself and must plain uncomfortable really. So it was so cool to see her sort of let down her guard once we were shopping for marijuana for sale. It was like she was actually doing something. And since then, she has continued to use sativa products. Sure enough, they have worked for her too.
