Yeah we drive past a few commercial grow operations on our way to N MI cabin and that shit reeks for miles. I would seriously have a problem living around there.

Mike Epps was at the dispo here a couple months ago doing promotion for his weed pack/funko.

I used to hate the smell of weed when I was younger. But now, I can't get enough of it. The danker the better.

Finally smoked some. Went with a bong since that's what my friends growing up had. Still trying to figure it out though since it's been something like 23 years.
My first go at it I think I packed too big of a bowl (red biscotti), and took one huge bong rip and coughed my fucking head off. Second time I switched it up with a much smaller bowl (koko puffs) and took several hits off it and that went much better.
Speaking of the smell, holy shit is it making everything reek. I basically just put everything in the garage for now cause there's no way I want my house to smell like shit all the time. Thinking about getting a waterproof hardcase, and then some mason jars for the actual weed itself (maybe throw the bowl in one too). The smell does really give me memberberries though. Especially of concerts from my youth. But I'm also now realizing my uncle smoked a ton of weed (in fairness, he also was a junkie and did heroin and got shot in the head in DC on a drug deal gone bad; he survived and later died from cancer pretty young).
It also made it apparent just how high my tolerance is for gummies though. They definitely help with the pain, but I basically don't get much of a high at all from them. Like, at all.
I was really surprised at my wife's reaction. I figured she was pretty much judging me and really disapproving of the whole thing, but she's expressed interest in taking a gummy. And she was surprisingly supportive of me smoking it. Although she's also out of town for the week, so we'll see how she feels when she smells it (if she does, hopefully storage works).

LOL yeah you can't smoke it inside.
But thats a feature, not a bug. Taking a 10 minute break outside, unplugging, looking at the sky - that was always the best part of smoking cigarettes. I never understand when TV and movies show people smoking cigarettes inside, its like holy fuck your house must smell like asshole.
Same with pot. Just hang out on the back porch for a few minutes. Its better all around.

Sometimes my packages of gummies make my office smell like weed. Just comes with the territory. I would definitely store things out of the house if possible.

Look into getting a charcoal lined bag! I would recommend the brand Dime Bags. I've had one for a decade now, I swear by it!

So apparently I've never actually been high before. The other day I took a bong hit, felt okay, and took an edible a bit later. I think maybe my THC receptors just weren't working, but it finally activated them. It all sort of clicked and made it easier to understand why people get high. I boarded a fucking rocket ship and took off into space.
Whatever I'd been doing before essentially was just getting me buzzed. Which was fine, but yeah, probably not worth the money. Took another bong hit a couple hours before bed and reboarded the rocket ship basically until 30 minutes after I woke up.
And then this morning happened. I packed a smaller bowl, but I feel like I hadn't really been getting good hits and my highs were very weak (the other night notwithstanding). Despite the smaller bowl, I wanted to really make sure I inhaled well this time. I didn't realize THC could be psychedelic, but I went on a fucking trip. And it was a bad one.
I don't remember exactly how it started, but at some point I decided to put some headphones on and that listening to music would be a good idea. I saw the colors of songs and they were fucking dancing for me. I was transporting to different places I'd heard the music before, like I was in an entirely different plane of existence. And then, the messages in the songs started. I started freaking out a bit because the songs were becoming too real and transporting me places I didn't want to go.
My wife is on a trip with her mom, and I started panicking that something was wrong because I had texted her this morning and she hadn't answered. And the Life360 app said she hadn't moved. So I'm thinking the worst, but can't figure out what I should do. So I just search for "news" in the search bar, laugh at myself, and then give up. But for the rest of the next 2 hours I was worried something happened, my brain was connected via this trip (third eye), and that was the only way I knew about it. Also the entire time I kept telling myself about how this was going to be a journey and I was acutely aware that I was high and this would eventually wear off, but I also started doubting myself.
Started closing shit and threw off my headphones. Went outside to get some fresh air and started having an existential crisis about whether I was the real me or...the other me that was there. And then they started multiplying and I felt like my brain was overheating. And then I started thinking that I had to get inside and throw this weed away because it was too powerful. But at the same time, I can't close the door on this place where I can time travel via songs, and it'd be nice to have the option of coming back. I decided I was way too high to make that kind of impactful decision.
Came back inside and looked up how to deal with a bad trip. Reading it seemed to ground me a bit. Then I went around the house just kind of in a daze, thought I might throw up, didn't, laid on the bathroom floor a while, then pet my dog for what felt like a half hour. I laid on the floor in the fetal position starting to wonder if the simulation was collapsing on me right now and this was now permanent. At the same time, I knew I was high, but maybe I wasn't. I also started to wonder if the rest of humanity was gone, but I couldn't figure out how to verify it. I finally made it to the couch to pass out.

Now I'm sitting here still half high and wondering if I ever want to do that shit again. It was a lot. I feel like I went on a Timothy Leary self actualization trip from a bong rip and my brain is way too fragile for that shit again.

You might be one of those people that gets paranoia from THC. I've never heard of any particular explanation for it, but some people get anxiety and paranoia which seems like the opposite of what THC should do, but brain chemistry is weird.
Also mixing edibles and smoking is going to do a number on you because they are absorbed and affect you differently. THC is also super dose-dependent with different people, the same edibles that I can take 5 of and be totally fine, if my wife takes 1 she will be on the ground. You have to just explore with dosages and try to find the happy spot where you're high enough to be happy but not paranoid tripping.

Have you ever been actually tripping before? Wondering about your drug experience, like have you taken LSD/Shrooms? Wondering if what you experienced as tripping was just a good weed high or if you would recognize?

Like I said, at this point I'm pretty sure I've never actually been high until this week. Whatever effects I had in high school weren't it. Nor all the gummies and shit I tried in the last month.
If what I had today is just "high" and includes hallucinations, travelling to different planes of consciousness, and existential crises, I'm not sure how the fuck people would handle doing it daily.
If it's more like two days ago where I just get super euphoric, floaty, and relaxed, then yeah, give me more of that.
If it's like today, then yeah, I'm fucking out.

Unless there was something weird in that weed you smoked this time, thats not normal at all from weed, I've never experienced that at all. Thats why I'm asking about your drug experience because you might not be describing what you felt accurately if it was the first time you've ever been super fucked up on something not alcohol.

I bought a Firedog duffle bag off of Amazon and some of these charcoal bags that help to absorb odors.
One of the bonuses of dry herb vaping is that the smell isn't as strong and that the vapor dissipates almost instantly, unlike combustion.
