Ever smoke a strain that was too strong and made you uncomfortable?

I just grew out some Black Widow for the first time. Great strain. Heaviest producer I've ever grown. Only problem is it's so strong I can't smoke anymore of it. I have a couple patients that like that strong stuff so it won't go to waste. It literally makes me trip out every time I smoke it. Uncomfortably trip out. And it doesn't wear off quickly. I've only had this happen maybe 4 or 5 times in my life. Once was when I was in my late teens. Big brother had a friend that drove back and forth to California for weed runs. Smoked something called "crippler." A 1 hit was too much. It burned my nostrils to even put the dugout up to my nose. Didn't buy anymore, and none of my friends were interested either. It was like the moonshine of pot. Another time was some GG#4 I got from a dispensary. Paid an absurd amount for an ounce. Got home and toked up. Trippy effect due to incredibly high THC levels. Didn't buy anymore. Experiences like this is why I've never been into concentrates for the most part. If you need to concentrate your weed to get high you need to either grow better pot or get a better dealer :)

I like strong, but I like balance also. Anyone else ever run into this?

Where did you get the seeds? I’m growing black widow from ILGM. Wondering if it’s going to be that strong!

First powerful sativa I ever tried, some thirty-odd years ago, messed me up. Had no frame of reference for what I was going through, it was nothing like the sedative indicas I was used to smoking. I just went outside, away from sound and light, and waited for my mind to slow down.

I can’t wait. I sorta think we should one day do a huge RIU meet up in Vegas since it’s recreationally legal there too, and cheap rooms

I have, and I hate that anxious feeling. Actually just yesterday I smoked too much hash and I was supposed to be headed to the bank. Went out to the shop and put stuff away for awhile instead because i was just a little too high and slightly uncomfortable....still haven't made it to the bank, lol. It (my anxiety) got so bad a few years ago that I all but quit smoking, and I have always loved to toke all day long...But now that I have my anxiety under better control and my thc immunity back up I can smoke all day again...But yeah, some strains are too strong for me now and can trigger it. A lot of people seem to get anxiety as they age, and it sucks!!!

Nope, the “stronger” the better for me. I’m medical user too so there’s that.


edit: concentrates rock, give me shatter all day long

Maybe I fried too many brain cells from all the blotter I ate in in my teens, but I'm not into heavy psychotropic effects these days. I just want to relax and get high with a well rounded strain that allows me to be calm and comfortable. I do not find paranoia or trip like effects comfortable or calming. To each their own. Without smokers like you I'd be stuck with all this black widow :)

Seedsman. They were actually freebies with my order from over a year ago. So far they turned out light years better than the shitty california hash plant I actually paid for :)

Sativa's are another animal altogether aren't they? It's a completely different effect I'd reckon many smokers these days have never experienced with the fast flowering high THC breeding that seems to be dominating the market at most seed banks and flooding most dispensary shelves. I think the reason we don't see a lot of Sativa's being grown is due to the longer flowering period. I'm really looking forward to the Blue Dream I've got going now. I grew it about 10 years ago as a cut from a buddy in town. It was the best strain I have ever smoked. The effect was unique and very enjoyable. I haven't been able to find Blue Dream with the same phenotype since. Ordered some seeds from Humboldt Seed Organization that turned out to be an indica pheno and was nothing like the BD I grew before. I'll know if the Seedsman batch was any good by Christmas time :)

Hash can get me in trouble some days. Bong rip of hash mixed with some good pot and I'm not doing much for several hours and I'm certain I would never make it to the bank :)

Yes, I was. Turned into a great thread full of chicken wing and tincture recipes. I'm looking forward to making the everclear tincture and MCT oil. Waiting on supplies from amazon. Everclear is banned in my home State, but I've got a relative coming up from Illinois who is bringing me a big bottle. Should be good stuff. Supplies for MCT oil should be here by Monday. I'll journal it and post reaults.

I don't remember your name in particular. Whatever we discussed must not have been very noteworthy. I can't say I've ever had my feathers "slightly ruffled" by someone I don't remember interacting with. Be more interesting maybe?

Ummm nope, I ate over 300 hits in 2 years when I was 19 & 20.
People have different body chemistry. Sativa used to make me paranoid but now it evens me out. Indica can sometimes leave me too couch locked, and it’s usually then that I turn introspective and I’m not into that.
I’ve got cptsd and Jack Herer is great for me. I’ve also got treatment resistant RA and I’ve take almost everything under the sun for the pain relief. I only get that thru concentrates. I’ve also been smoking for over 40 years, so maybe there’s that too.
Good luck
