I got a whole pantry full of vine from the last three years and a fair size harvest, mostly hemp that I'll be playing with coming up soon. I don't intend to die until it's all gone. My point with the hemp is to finally find out if CBD really stops pain like pot. I will try mixing high THC stuff with the high CBD hemp to try to get a pain reliever that I don't have to be stoned all the time.
I know that marijuana pain salve, if made right, will stop pain almost instantly. Mine is only infused coconut oil with a tablespoon of DMSO per cup. You can get a lot fancier but it's still what does the work. I think THC stops the pain because that's what it does. It goes directly to the source of pain and attacks it there. CBD, on the other hand, I think reduces the pain by reducing inflammation. You need both to do the job right.
The thing is, I would like to be able to eat a few cookies and still be able to carry on an intelligent conversation. No one around here smokes anymore, but we do enjoy our edibles.
