Durban Kush – Quick Review 🧘🏽‍♂️

Right, as promised, here are my two cents on Durban Kush.

Opening the bag:
Immediately hit with a terpinolene-forward aroma - a whole village of tightly packed, resinous buds. ✅

Combustion (pure, elements paper):
The first few puffs were straight terpinolene. As the session progressed, the profile opened up into Pinene, honey, and a subtle back-of-the-throat chocolate nuance. 😎

Vaporised (Pax – one bowl):
Getting all of the above flavours again, but this time with an added, delicate rose-petal note that really stood out. 🌹

Effects:
This one doesn’t sedate at all. You can definitely feel the Kush backbone, but it’s well balanced by the Poison and Chem influence. Clear-headed, functional, and uplifting without any edge. 😇

Terpene profile:
Dominant Pinene and terpinolene, with a faint chocolate note in the background. 🍑 🍯 🍫

Overall, I’m really enjoying this as a morning flower. No raciness, no anxiety, no sleepiness - just a refreshing buzz that keeps you motivated and productive.

Seen my m8s , 1st terp that hit me was chocolate then terpinolene , if franky haze was on top it would be similar to chocolope , maybe slight lemon/pine behind terpinolene , Not a fan to be honest
 
Thank you for this bro. Looks like it could be right up my street after you've confirmed those sleepy myths are indeed myths.

I'm wondering if I can get away with techinally having a tolerance break by not having oil for a couple of days but using flower, and then use oil but not flower for a couple of days

Inhalation vs. ingestion tolerance breaks anyway, but still not letting the shields down by keeping one in play

Going to try it this week

In theory it should have a chance of getting your tolerance of each down and it'll be interesting to see how it goes 🤞

Your supposed to give yourself a longer break from the oil than the flower. I'm in the process of having a break from the oil, think its coming on 3 weeks. Lol I was getting a bit constipated from it also.
 
@StationeryWilbury I was heading toward a little Modified Gas earlier after a short sleep with no deep sleep left me feeling very fuzzy.

Paused that to make tea. I could not see the kettle in the dawn dim kitchen, looked everywhere for the battered stainless thing.

Sat down again to winge a little. Remembered I had changed the kettle yesterday for a new tall grey metal one as the old lid had broken. Bah Humbug.

Vaped the MG instead of the tea. Hope you found your kettle 8)
That MG looks lovely mate and yes I did find the kettle thank you.
After dropping my phone down the stairs I mulled over how badly I care about being nearly at the end of the bag of coffee beans as well as a few strains, it's been relentless work grinding them all up.
Anyway I freshened up the glassware after a coffee and hit zero gravity soon after.

I can't get my glassware out until later on tonight, got the little fella to look after in a bit, something to look forward to for later though, I love my glass with the twist.
 
I'm finding the OB better today, the Cookies is coming through more now its hydrated.
 
I would increase the bodys own painkiller rather than relying on THC. Yes THC doesnt work over time due to lack of other cannabinoids , degrade CB1 Medical receptors but importantly anandamide . Do we have more theraputic benefit by having anandamide at a good level or obliterating it with THC usage and then tolerance break every so often. Faah inhibitor is the only serious way to look at it. CBD makes my THC work perfectly while keeping anandamide levels . I would say 5 days on CBD = at least 10 days tolerance break. The clinics should stop that tolerance break advice in favour of faah inhibitor . Little rant from a daily user who cant stop cos of epilepsy so looked at other safer options.

Same here mate on needing it daily, I haven't had any sort of tolerance break for nearly a year and a half now, also been adding in CBD a lot lately.

If anything the CBD is letting me consume more so just trialling this out to see if I can simply reduce usage amount whilst not actually coming off it

I agree the clinics use it out of place really more for arse covering

Whatever works Lank , this wasn't personally aimed at anyone btw just incase anyone thinks that lol.

I just seen clinics saying this and thinking well lets compare the science from abstaining from THC to faah inhibitors namely CBD.

Me personally if i do 3-1 THC to CBD then the 25%THC hits me and good duration but this is me coming from very high THC usage to adjusting ratios to CBD. I know that the flower will get me more smashed by just taking daily usage of CBD in the morning but its getting adjustment correct cos there should be no downregulation with a 2-1 THC to CBD oil. I think upregulation could happen faster with a 2/1 ratio oil v no oil but whatever works for each patient.
 
Today I am having Therismos SOG T30.

I started the day feeling quite chill. I made some comments on the grinder thread about my swanky new grinder that I love.

I have had a couple of episodes of light anxiety today.

I am not feeling the Therismos. I am blaming it for my anxiety. I do feel unwell within myself. My pain is pretty bad today.

There is just a heaviness to this strain for me.

But also I had a tough week going to the mainland and my ex-husband almost dying a couple of times.

I have some T25 from the Discounts page. Tigerz by Herdade de B.... I am going to grind that tomorrow and try that. Hopefully it will land as nicely as the Cold Creek Krush and the Peace Naturals® GMO Cookies T30 (my absolute favourite).

I have on order and waiting to receive 20g of Peace Naturals® GMO Cookies. This should arrive any day now. Fingers crossed. I think some of the anxiety is that I am still waiting for it to be posted after having paid for it.

I also have placed an order for at least 1 cartridge, I suck at the Cannabis Clinic Cardiff portal and I think I need to stick to just sending an email to place a prescription as I just have never placed a successful order on the portal. That will definitely not arrive until after New Years because it has not even been signed for so the prescription is on request.

I have to chase up the Zeus as that has next day delivery but I am not sure what day I ordered that. I am still awaiting that.

This time of year can be tricky. Having PTSD the holidays are a series of mines to navigate.

Anyway, how do I know if it is me or the strains? I would never buy this strain again. If this was the only strain available I would possibly go back to using opiates half the time.

I am going to do tge inner mental health work and then vape again. See how it lands. This is the first day I dont have the Peace Naturals® to look forward to as my night time treat. 🐻

Use Oil/Flower combo maybe? For a more holistic Rx
