It's like the middle ground between the smoking feeling and the edibles feeling for me. That's the best way I can describe it.

Oh plus I've done ABV yogurt a few times. The first time I did a heaping tablespoon full and couldn't move off my couch for like four hours lol

So I've been keeping the vaped weed because someone told me you can sprinkle it in and on anything or cook with it and still get really high. I mixed a bunch in with one of these
a few days ago and you couldn't even taste it because of the hemp seeds, chia seeds and walnuts in there with the blueberry yogurt. Anyways I really didn't feel shit for roughly 2 hours and then it was like hitting a time warp that shit had me glued to the couch for 4 fucking hours before I felt partially functional again. I was high as fuck.
It was pretty cool. Probably would do again. Probably would not put so much in.
But one part of me felt like it was the 2015 equivalent of smoking resin or some shit lol.

hahahaha, yeah i tried to tell people its no joke. i think its because it has a heavy amount of CBN* in it, the cannabinoid that causes drowsiness and sleepiness. ive eaten like 5 grams at once before and felt it for two whole days. i ended up falling asleep for like 15 hours then it was so hard to wake up, and i felt like i had the worst flu of my life or like i got hit by a truck, i could barely move, then i almost fainted in the shower. my eyes were super red too
edit: CBN not cbd

I was lit but nothing like that nor would I want to be lol. I would guess it was maybe 2 - 2 1/2 grams when I did it the first time and probably a gram the other few times which was a lot milder but lasted around the same amount of time.

My bag of ABV is literally like 20 something strains mixed together though including some that were already high CBD strains like 10% and shit lol

Cannabinol (CBN): The Cannabinoid That Makes You Sleepy
What Is Cannabinol (CBN)?
When we look at the construction of cannabis, we find that it has over 80 cannabinoids. Until recently, tetrahydrocannbinol (THC) was the only cannabinoid anyone seemed to care about. Thankfully recent research, particularly about cannabidiol (CBD), has brought about an intense interest in all the cannabinoids.
As is the case in many of the known cannabinoids, cannabinol (CBN) stems from cannabigerolic acid (CBGA) in cannabis. The plant naturally produces enzymes (aka synthases) that convert the CBGA to one of 3 major cannabinoids: cannabichromene carboxylic acid (CBCA), cannabidiol carboxylic acid (CBDA), and tetrahydrocannabinol carboxylic acid (THCA).
When the plant develops THCA, it usually will be converted to THC as a result of heat or UV light. That being said, THCA can be converted to CBNA over time as well. Prolonged exposure to air causes the THCA to lose hydrogen molecules and oxidize; now we have CBNA. Just like the rest of the acidic cannabinoids, CBNA will convert to cannabinol (CBN) when exposed to heat or UV light.
What Are The Benefits Of Cannabinol (CBN)?
Cannabis is widely used as a sleep-aid for those who suffer from insomnia and cannabinol is the reason why. By all accounts, CBN is the cannabinoid responsible for the sedative effects of cannabis. Because of this, I tend to reserve high-CBN strains for night use.
Another use for cannabinol as an anti-bacterial. According to a Italian study from 2008, cannabinol “showed potent activity against MRSA” when applied as a topical. Topical uses also have shown promise in treating burns and psoriasis.
The research on cannabinol (CBN) is still lacking, but some early studies have suggested it could stimulate bone growth. If that’s the case, it would be helpful in treating osteoporosis. It could also help those with broken bones to recover more quickly.
Cannabinol Can Reflect The Age Of Your Cannabis
When searching for the perfect strain, it’s important to know what you’re getting. This is why lab-testing should never be overlooked. Testing facilities like Steep Hill Lab in California give patients a complete cannabinoid profile of their medicine. It’s always a good idea to check a strains profile before making a decision.
Because cannabinol is a production of degradation, it’s not usually found in high concentrations (in a collective). High levels of CBN are usually related to poor storage methods. If cannabis is stored in an airtight container of some sort, it’s unlikely that a lot of THC would convert to CBN.
Luckily, not all is lost if you’re searching your collective for a sleep-aid. The simple solution would be to allow you’re medicine to age a bit. When exposed to the air, the THC will begin to degrade and convert to CBN, a great way to fight insomnia.
Basically ABV will have traces of THC in it still, but most of the THC has been turned into CBN from the heat, so theres a ton of it in there, way more than fresh weed or even really old weed

I'm also seeing how many different strains I can consume in a year. Started in February of this year so going through February of 2016.
Last time I've updated my list was about a month back...
List of the marijuanas
finished off a few of the green ones and picked up a handful of new strains since then though.

howd you like the lavender stuff? that was one of the most unique weeds ive ever had, i liked it a lot. i bought a half ounce once and my friend relentlessly convinced me to sell him like nearly all of it, he really really liked it. i wasnt able to get more after that so that kinda pissed me off but whatever lol
Yeah plus I was too lazy to make firecrackers even though I had bought all the supplies lol. From what I read up on it doesn't matter with the fat too much for ABV because the weed has been carbonized when it's heated up in the vape. Like pretty much everything said it wouldn't hurt but it's not the biggest deal.

my favorite way was getting a pint of half and half, then grind the abv down into dust, mix it in the cream, add a ton of hot cocoa mix and get it warm enough all mix together but not ruin anything, then just chug it. tastes like some decadent ultra creamy chocolate milk with a hint of weed lol. when i was lazy though id just grind it into dust then put it in my mouth like i was doing the cinnamon challenge then just wash it down with an ipa
