Remind me to come back to this topic in 25 years or so, when we'll be no closer.

They’re a bunch of morons so they won’t listen anyways, backwards archaism at its finest the British Government.... The economy is fucked due to Covid.... how to help it.... create thousands of jobs, millions in tax revenue, take the burden off border / customs and police simply by legalising Cannabis but they’re so fucking stupid and blind that no ones even considered it I’d guarantee, a few years ago I thought we were very close and we’re clearly not, only thing anyone seems to acknowledge now is a rally or riot so that’s clearly the path, 100,000 people blazing some herb outside the commons is the only way imo.

It would literally solve all the problems NHS etc etc etc

Right now is the time, it won’t solve a whole economy in anyway but every little helps right now as line you say even if it was just used to bolster the NHS then it’s a huge win, they’re just too blind and arrogant to see it.

There too scared to because of public opinion and the negative image weed has which is complete bs

Money. People with money. Big business. Are the only ones. Politicians will always curtail to their wishes. It's already happening though. The big Green companies in America/Canada are funding the media campaigns at the moment (oil for sick kids, CBD etc.) The Tories moved pretty quickly from staunchly objecting to rushing through legislation. The weed leaf motif is moving from "hippy symbol" to "health symbol" pretty quickly. It's no longer just the cheap bandanas, lighters or t-shirts. It's in supermarkets, pound shops, vape shops, health food shops, it's pervasive. Plant plastics, climate benefits, hemp cottons, CBD products, food stuffs, the list goes on of the advantages. Soon enough the image of the "Chong" style stoner with the weed t-shirt and the massive joint aren't the symbol and the benefits can't be ignored. That's when change will happen and we're almost there. A few more steps along the road is decriminilisation.

Big pharma, booze companies and pub chains like wetherspoons (run by a real asshole, and major conservative party donor) would never let that happen. As long as these lot are in we be struggling.

Awesome

Not sure who but I know they are drunk.

I am 43 years old and people have been telling me since I was 15 it would be soon. I honestly do not see it happening in my lifetime. It would solve a lot of our problems in this country but on the other hand we would not get to look forward to our trips to more enlightened countries.As has been already said alcohol and pharma, "dealers" would not allow it imo.

Start a petition!

I have an idea for a petition to make weekly drug tests mandatory for all MPs. Failing the test to result in immediate sacking, as well as being prohibited for life from holding any position in government. If nothing else I imagine we'd see coke legalised in a matter of minutes.

This is great, but if weed is already medicinal, amd its not provided, then what do we word it as? So doctors prescribe it? Maybe doctors to prescribe recreational cannabis for ptsd/anxiety/work-stress related illness- pain management alt...?

Pay range?

Good writing of a few pieces gets a couple of humdred usd. Some publishing muscle gets you thousands over a year. An evergreen piece and you’re ready for retirement.

Sounds sweet but subjective, is there escrow?

Yes we can escrow the first 500usd.

How would a dispute be resolved?

Sounds Interesting!

I'm a new member who enjoys writing and has plenty of opinions to voice on the UK's suffocating cannabis laws and how (hopefully) things are beginning to change. I'd be happy to put an article together for free when I have a bit of time.

I'd read that

Still looking? I've done a bunch of writing for a couple of Dutch flower growers - RQS and Zamnesia. Let me know.

bring the dutch here we need european sellers

I too am between jobs after being made redundant 2 weeks before lockdown! I don’t claim to be the best writer but I always give an honest account and review of all the products I buy on here, take a peek 8)

Hey there, I'm currently bvetween jobs. I can write reviews. I order what ever products are able to be sent here to Australia and beg for more. Let me know whats involve, i'm a keen bean :)

I shall respond by Private Message sir but how about you put up an image so I can see yer fakce.

If you stil interested in writers I'm interested and have experience writing about substance misuse/use.
Drop me a line if you're interested and we'll discuss it.

Would be interested to hear the Australian perspective on LB for sure

I have lots of peeps but they all know my irl name. This scares me.

Piece of piss, just use a different identity for the article then use your big peeps account on Twitter, Insta or wherever to link to it.

Will write for weed :D

the growth of cannabis journalism and media will be immense in the oncoming years within the uk

this post is very interesting

This is something I can sort you out with - I have a digital marketing company and can provide you with writing services, I only have 2 writers that are very knowledgeable in this area from both a medicinal and recreational point of view.

For writer A (very very high standard) $8/100 words
For writer b (she is really good) - $6/100 words!

Can do discounts for large pieces of work. If you are interested happy to help

Wot sort of thing exactly are you looking for. And wot do we just send u a sample of it

I’d love to, my knowledge is vast

My knowledge is vaster

😂 no one likes a show off! 😉

Please hit up the toddster if you are a canna writer with a place to post. And be prepared for mad ritches.

Ok.

A place to post. Time to set something up.

Ive had an idea for a crossover cannabis article for a while. Still sitting on it. Would appreciate some advice, not much else going on.

guidance headed your way arthur.

I'm game, I'd love to know more if a PM is possible? I don't have much to offer in the way of selling myself, besides these wee lyrical fingertips of mine.

Pretty interested in hearing about this bud. I like to consider somewhat of an expert on cannabis but also still a student ;). I've published my fair share of blogs over the past few years around this as well as understand how to properly review a strain.
All the best! UKCF x

Hiya,

I'm a writer, copywriter and SEO writer, don't have cannabis content to show but have plenty of other work. Be interested to hear what you need exactly, could probably do you a sample piece. Cheers!

Take a look at my profile

This sounds interesting. Could you post some more details?

There are moments when emeralds are not the only green gems we like to read about. Sometimes RB's disco biscuit can get even the most hardened of tolerances seeing stars. MJ's edibles bake US. Little Biggy is a little gem where we can all get medicated, motivated and elevated. But if you want gems, you have to have diamonds. I'll smash over a review shortly :)

I write for a living (of sorts).

Quite happy to provide a spec piece on a topic of your choice.

i tried to write business articles for our local the Buzz magazine. I take it legalized drugs and prostitution.

I smoke before EVERY THING :)

Ok but don't forget after everything.

Round here we call that indica time

but the end is only a new beginning so :)

“Covered”

so you are the cat that smokes 2 joints before they smoke 2 joints

I smoke 2 joints in times of protest

https://youtu.be/vUsv4Lb7EQs

Thats me


I smoke two joints before i smoke two joints and then i smoke two more!

Everywhere i go ive got people dropping out, passing up by throwing the towel in..i even turn my grey regularly from smoking so much

Everyday since 2000 maybe earlier...unfortunately i started too early 12/13

Infact ive smoked with people and turned them sober cause it was too much for them Hahaha just not as serious as some of us here

lol! I often pride myself on telling my friends about the time I once made a rasta whitey. He couldn't handle the G13 I got in the dam from a 2 week trip lol

lol

For some people it's a phase for the rest its a lifestyle lol

😁best comment fair play🤣 👏🏻

Haze would would be perfect to...some smoke makes me wana starfish on flat surface

Haze im usually up all night

I do this all the time. I find it brilliant for those moves you need to concentrate on esp. abdominals. Your pace is more methodical and it just seems to make a workout for effective. I am normally fucked afterwards but it's all irie my friend!

Been doing this for few years now, welcome to the club!

I find I have longer endurance when stoned. Who says stoners are lazy, ey? ;)

I smoke before every workout. Really beneficial apart from giving me slight anxiety in the gym occasionally lol.

If building muscle is your goal I’d recommend it. Smoking really helps with mind-muscle connection, which is a really important factor along with proper form in making sure you’re working the muscle correctly to get those gainz

Just started doing this then seen this post lol

Weight lifting sure, wouldent recommend smoking before cardio.

when i was younger, i would work out for hours while high but it fades the more you smoke.
also working out when not high after that, doesnt usually feel the same.

I love to smoke a bit of hash and go for a run. I run 4 times a week anyways so no biggy, really enjoy running while high though :)

👌✌🏻

The first thing i'm absolutely craving after lifting weights isn't your typical gym bro 'protein' or some heavily marketed unhealthy post workout chemicals

all i'm reaching for is my gear to skin up, although my dexterity isn't quite there right after a workout especially when i end the session on biceps / forearms, rolling a joint right afterwards is more challenging than the workout itself lol

Hazes and Amnesias rock for weight training and medium cardio (hill walking). Plus banging reggae and hip hop for the gym. Yes!

*Edibles* and working out

🤤

If you don't have a better source of pro biotics then yeah. If you are going to drink it instead of Coke, then yeah. Otherwise it's a lot of sugars and preservatives to reckon with.

Ive had the fortunate luck to try some really good concoctions of it by a real shaman, & they were different types, one with Mint another with Ginger & my body & system immediately felt the high vibrational detox going on! To me, I feel like its what alcohol should be, I got drunk but it was beautiful not like with alcohol, just my opinion

And theres something called Amanita Kombucha which is something even more magickal ;)

( research " soma " )

There are some good natural ones out there. Captain kombucha raspberry flavour, is pretty good. Makes a great mixer too.

I wouldn't ask health questions on here.

In short, it might be beneficial for your gut in terms of microbes that live there.

Either way it tastes good.

I have used a “Mighty” vape with hash it has an adjustable temperature and plenty of accessories for different stuff, works great for me. Little pad of steel wool for oil, also chamber at the top Collects wax like resin after being used to vape hash, can be scraped out and makes for a great smoke

I use a dynavap with cotton bacon(vaping fibre) you can get it from Amazon or eBay, then you don't mess up your screen.

you can at a high heat, but hash leaves alot of oily residue which will block parts of the vape or insert

Thanks mate. I’ve got some high quality dry sift on the way which I might try dabbing but if it doesn’t melt make some rosin. I’ve not tried making it before so could be a fun experiment!

You need to be looking at full-melt bubblehash if you're trying to dab it, dry sift won't really work. You can vape hash though... just a bit fiddly. Like Zappytrocar said, the residue is the main problem... so I put hash into cotton wool, or wrap it in hemp fibre, then put it in the vape (this means you can pull out the whole oily residue mess along with the cotton etc). I've got a dedicated Dynavap just for hash.

Couldn’t find hemp fibre but found a 80% cotton, 20% hemp blend that’s used for e cig wicks and it’s worked a treat. The process will take some refining and I’m puffing on my crafty as I write so haven’t seen the mess yet but I’m certainly enjoying this Porsche stamp dry sift. Thanks! And thanks to grumpybloke if you read this as you also suggested the same! - update - no mess whatsoever!

Cool, sounds like a good hack, thanks for the tip!

Good question as I have been asking and thinking about it also so thank you 😊 everyone for the info.

That’s why the topics page has been so helpful. I used to get my gear and log off but now I love the topics bit because of info like this 👌

Been looking at this which might be a solution 🤷🏻‍♂️

I only really touch hash and I use a s&b crafty plus which does a nice job of vaping.


You have to put in a little insert/pad thingy and have it on a higher heat setting but you really taste the hash and it has the desired effect obvs.

I don’t know about the pax 3 but I’m sure it’ll do the trick.

You can vape teh 5 star ice water hash ma dabber 420 has. Zheetos x g33 x zcake

I've vaped hash in several vapes - you usually need a higher heat setting, but depends on the hash. I used to use a little pure cotten pad that I'd rest the hash on purely to catch any residue as it can a pain to clean otherwise.
Vaping hash can be a lovely experience, good luck!

Certainly 👍👍
I’m about to hit up the Vapman with a Sunday Double Bill : Afghan Black to start followed by Bubble Hash. These work just great but melty hashes will do just that-melt- which is going to cause too much of a mess in the oven.
The Mighty dosing capsules for concentrates work with most things, but the Vapman is exceptional with the right hash..🤩

I have picked up a flower mate for next to nothing to give hash a try in it. Anyone had any experience with it and best advice

Cheers in advance only just got it so just having a mess about with bud in it. Of course it has a separate chamber but how is it with hash?

Going to get a Dynavap at some point seen a BB3 starter kit for £45 quid give or take

This is an old post. I’ve since got a dynavap that I use for hash as you can get a higher heat and it works brilliantly. I use cotton hemp fibre and wrap up a little hash package for vaping.

I have a dynavap and have vaped hash but then had to clean it out. I have not heard of this cotton hemp fibre bit before, but it sounds like it's just what I need!!

This is the stuff

Cheers man appreciate the response. I’m defo getting one at some point 👌

Hi Leanbean,

Depends on the quality as if its a lower grade you will be burning all sorts of other crap.

We have added link for our A+++ grade Monaco.

Have a great day :)

GT

There is no long term data so I would say follow your spidey sense, what's the downside?

Thats why people have low temp dabs, dabbing at high temperatures causes toxic smoke thats cancerous

I like to dab as a healthier alternative to smoking (its vaping without the vaporizer) so no burning plant material to inhale X

Anything in the lung isn't generally good. As for combustion Vs Vape, Vape wins hands down every time.

My personal preference is buying high quality edibles with two carts a month.

This is coming from smoking just under an ounce a week (give or take a few hand outs).

And by carts do you mean distillate carts you can screw onto a pen battery, like this https://littlebiggy.org/item/Msu0BIALrBEJYKyHLkdIunIv/view/v

Yes it has a kind of crackle on the lungs.

this bigga

Yes, I do this all the time! Best way is with a micro syringe that is small enough to get into the cart. Heat the cart slightly either with a hairdryer or blowtorch (careful not to overheat) and turn it upside down so the oil starts running. The next step is simply trial and error, and takes a few goes to get right, but basically syringe up as much as you can from each cart whilst the oil is warm and runny, then as a last step I like to leave all the carts upside down in a jar and leave that on low heat somewhere, you should get the remaining bits slowly trickle into the jar, which you can then add terpenes/do whatever/syringe up again and into a fresh cart. Best of luck!

Thank you kindly sir/siress! :-) I'm glad I asked because I'd have never thought about heating the oil up, nor collecting it in a jar - and there I was thinking I was a reasonably intelligent and logical person... I'd have properly f*#ked it up! Thank you for the clear step by step instructions, really appreciate that. I'll let you know how I get on...

Ha yeah just taking a cart apart to investigate the coil gave me Spiderman-like powers of adhesion!

I was thinking spread it onto a rizla XD
