Dear Marijuana, I am dying. Please Help me!

Hey BelleIsle - Crohn's is a bitch. We have a lot of experience with it. Cannabis has helped with nausea & pain, but we haven't been able to yet find a very high CBD strain which provides the most significant anti-inflammatory benefits (check out this study.) I look forward to the day when we can have a steady supply to juice (see this William Courtney video). In the meantime, please research low dose naltrexone (and alpha lipoic acid) on the web. Don't forget to take a daily regimen of D, krill or fish oil, probiotics, curcumin...

Good luck.

She has been using tincture and I believe it is helping her. She has a few ounces of tincture currently. I took a Mason Jar and filled it with some smaller lower buds, then I filled it with 151 Everclear and I have been shacking that bitch everyday for a few weeks now. I will find your thread and bump that shit. I wanted to get another jar going now cuz it's been 2 weeks on the one. And out patients are wanting some tincture also. Thanks smokealot.

They mount fish - I think they can mount buds like a fish.
They spray some sort of hard clearcloat on it to preserve it I think.

There are some strians of high CBN/CBD out there.
I know Steve DeAngelo was talking about his work with a few breeders.
So maybe call Harborside in CA and ask them for any info.

Also The guy who was running the Jackson CC had aqquired some of the cbn strains.
Sorry - can't think of his handle right now.

I make Simpson capsules for myself and my worst patients. They can b hard on the stomach. I would try cutting it with an food grade oil. Which ever one is easier on your system. Coconut, canola

How do you react to normal edibles? Cookies or hard candy. The one crones person I kno of gets relief from a hard candy made from a 10-12 Sativa
Good luck

Hi Belle! I have spoken with your BF a few times here, and it is nice to meet his other half! Thank you for sharing your story and your struggles. I will continue to follow this thread, and look forward to updates on your grow and your health! Big hugs from 'a Lower' to you, 'Upper!'

Critical Kush strain claims to have 2.1%cbd. Ive been looking for high cbd strain for my back pain and this was the best one ive seen so far.

scott blackey aka shantibaba is a member of the cbd crew look at my avatar. it says mr nice seed bank those guys have higher grade cbd strains but the auction is over i think its real close ill post a link.

if you use my method and put a fan on it you can make a good tincture in one day no problem.

I have heard of others complaining about the RSO effecting their stomach due to the chlorophyll. I have made the oil heavy in chlorophyll and light in chlorophyll. I have given it out to many patients. I have not had any complaints about stomach issues, at least with the oil that I made. I think a lot of people do have problems with chlorophyll in the oil, mostly due to using stems and leaves, which would cause more chlorophyll to be in the oil and more oil would be required to consume to have the same effects. I recommend to only use premium bud to make the oil. If you have to use some sugar shake, freeze the sugar shake and also put the alcohol in the freezer, and only do a 1 to 5 minute wash while frozen. This will help reduce the amount of chlorophyll stripped from the sugar shake. CBD, THC levels per strain; I think it is more important to concentrate on mixing multiple strains of high quality rather than only using one strain. I try to have at least half indica. In my opinion, no tincture or BHO is even going to compare to premium grade RSO for medicinal purposes, just my opinion, I mean no offense to anyone.

I agree to use buds at least popcorn buds no leaf or stems at all. stomach issues could be a result of not activating the thc/cbd properly. it needs to be heated first. i guess a rice cooker would work that's probably why grow goddess has not had a problem.

I'm so sick I don't know if it's too late. I don't doubt what medical marijuana can do just whether or not it has a chance to work for me but I am not giving up I'm trying all that much harder I also have never done grow journals and I am a very private person and I feel I can benefit from others as they may benefit from me as well that is why I chose to do this journal.

if you wish to get rid of your crohn's you ought to try and find other growers to help you collect their fan leaves to juice. as well as any bud of course.


cant express it enough.

gastrointestinal ailments and the like are best alleviated by juicing

juice everything and hempseed and all parts to your diet

I have heard good things about juicing healthy fan leaves. However, I have no experience myself.


I highly recommend using a rice cooker for making the RSO. Also you can use one of those metal grease splatter shield things over the rice cooker. It may help to increase the amount of oil produced in the end. I am going to try to use one of those on the next batch. In theory, it should eliminate much of the "lost oil" carried out of the rice cooker with the evaporating alcohol.
I do not recommend using a crock pot or slow cooker. I have heard of people having problems with the oil made in those.

Belle & Glad: How close are you to being able to supply yourselves with RSO? If that is what you are looking to use.

Are you currently smoking on anything? I'm a bit confused about that, I hope you are. It sounds like you really need a high CBD strain to help with your bowel irritation, probably in high dosages IMO.

Good luck and best wishes.

Bump..just to keep this getting read..My thoughts are with you guys.

This is the part I am not sure about too.

I think Belle is detoxing from narcotics.
Godspeed BelleIsle.

juice, juice, juice. no more bowel problems.

600x more effective than heated your cannabinoids. -rso is good for cancer, not crohn's.

smoking will help with pain from Crohn's but not cure it.

get rid of the crohn's by juicing.

So for juicing you just toss everything in a fancy juice blender and add water?
Does it need to be mature leaf or just any leaf?
