Flower Therismos Strawberry OG

[Bubbles]

I’m a newbie to MC (but a long-time occasional social smoker of hash). Had my first vape last night with SOG. I only put in 0.11g despite prescription saying 0.25g, and took about three gentle inhales. It knocked my socks off! Did I do too much? Initially felt lovely and dreamy. But after 10 minutes it was a horrible rushy feeling, heart racing, anxiety, panic, severe worsening of tinnitus, and weird tension and stiffening in my neck and shoulders that wouldn’t go away all night. Couldn’t sleep until I started to calm down after about two hours. Woke up feeling drugged with a stiff neck. Do you have to vape the whole amount you put in, or can you stop and start again a bit later? Or should I put in even less to get just one inhale? Can’t find any guidance on this. I didn’t think I was a lightweight, but I guess this must be much higher THC than in recreational hash?! I’ve got Big Narstie Moroccan Peaches for daytime use but I’m a bit worried about starting that now. Also, should I put opened pouch of SOG in a sealed jar? Thanks in advance for any advice

Hello mate

Yes sealed Jar - if you can a kilner jar (these are the best seal). Add some humidity packs and let your meds acclimatise.


Kilner Jars are normally on sale so can be £3. https://www.ocado.com/products/kilner-clip-top-jar-0-5-litre-267698011

With the mighty you can take as little or as much as you like and it does look like you would much benefit from taking one drag at a time and maybe waiting 10 or 15 mins to see if you feel you need more .
Hopefully the Moroccan Peaches wild be milder in effect but I would still use the approach of one drag then wait 15 or so minutes , just till you find where you are with it all

Sorry for you with this - it can happen at the start until you find strains, dosages, times etc that work best for you.

The little approach is right, I am only 4 months into MC and bud, another lifelong hash smoker, the vape and buds wacked me for the first couple of weeks, but unlike hash you soon develope a tolerance to bud, which i have in a horrifying way haha!
Also the SOG is a deceptive bud, I have some it does creep up, it's meant to be Indica, but i use it in the odd afternoon as for me its not a sleeper or relaxing, try a different bud like @GrownHealth suggests.

No, on the mighty i can only manage about 7 pulls before coughing, at first i was doing 5 and walking away until i wanted more. have just 1 pull or 2 and build up as needed.

Ahh thank you so much. I wasn’t sure if the flower can be heated, vaped once, then cooled, then heated again etc. Or whether that’s not good for the vaporiser? The doc has prescribed me 0.25g four times a day! Presumably that means the full 0.25g four times a day, i.e. in one go, not with long pauses in between drags? But that would be way too much for me I feel, so I’ll follow your advice, thank you. How do I know when a dose is finished in the vape? 0.11g looked like the amount I would put in a joint, but I don’t know how many vape drags it would take to use that all up.

Your not. It's just the change, yes these buds rock 20 - 30% THC whereas some street hash maybe only 8% but they are very different, I now crave hash (and have moved to dabbing to help) the bud does not really cut it for me now i have a tolerance, that only took 4 months. The hash is away more rounded and grounded hit, smoked it since the mid 70's and never had this tolerance issue.

So they have given you a 1g a day allowance, one mighty capsule is very little, in the first week i was only using one a day, i ended up with a stockpile of bud. Now though i can smoke my allowance.

Actually the pharmacy sent me a re-stash jar but no humidity packs. Do I need those?

I use them 62%, some med bud is very dry and improves in a jar with one over a few days. depends on the bud and if you intend to keep some for a time. Some bud even comes with them now!

Yep it seems a lot! Do you always use the dosing caps? Booklet says they’re not reusable but I’m not sure why. Seems a waste of money to discard them each time. But will I damage the vape if I put the ground bud directly into the filling chamber?

I’m no expert on what bud should look or feel like, although I’ve seen a few videos from Smacksalad on YouTube. Will certainly be keeping for some time given my low tolerance! What’s the 62% mean?

You can just use the chamber, but the dosing cap keeps the mighty nice and clean. I have 4 dosing caps on the go all 4 months old! I clean them in isopropyl alchohol when they get to sticky to touch! if they bend out of shape just bend them back, they are defo not single use!

Percentage of moisture, i use these: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Boveda-Hum...0843689&sprefix=boveda+62%,aps,92&sr=8-5&th=1

Relative humidity. 62% is best for the Terpenes within the plant. Cigars and tobacco are different so depends upon the plant!

I will point out the trick is to keep the amount you use to as low as needed to keep costs in check and 1g/day could well prove to me more than enough and would help enormously with keeping costs in check and if you can get by using two capsules per day all the better as you seem to be coming from a lowish tolerance to this flower .
