which do you prefer, getting high, stoned, or something in the middle?

[hazey grapes]

now that i can make a PROPER poll, i'd like to to get some votes on everyone's preferences. me? i hate stoner bud and have since the very first time it didn't get me high. i was spoiled by a couple years worth of a steady supply of trippy imported columbian gold. NOTHING i've EVER bought since has even come close though i've finally grown some nice strains. i hate getting stoned SO MUCH that i'd rather smoke mexican brick than 100% organic outdoor grown "dank" every time.

so what are YOUR preferences? in case you've never even gotten high, let me remind you of the effects you DON'T get out of common everywhere cash cropping indica dominants that only slow you down and make you stupid with some hybrids offering at east euphoria. unless you live in SoCal, you should already be familiar with getting stoned.

getting high =
- being fully functional, to motivational, to flat out can't sit still on it as in kali mist. getting high is the OPPOSITE of being tired aka couchlocked.
- psychoactivity. sativas, especially purer ones, offer a wide range of sensory effects from actual trippy visuals, to making music sound "more real" and in general heighten your other senses. i've noticed a really cool "touchy feely" effect from 2 strains that were all about getting high and columbian gold used to give a light floaty feeling like you're always walking downhill or even that your legs are helium balloons... again, the opposite of couchlock. a nice psychoactive high can also make junk foods taste orgasmic.
- euphoria... i STILL associate that as a sativa trait as i used to laugh my ass off on columbian. i've smoked some hybrids that have nice euphoria, but i still say they get it from their sativa genes as MOST afghani dominants don't have it that i've smoked. kali mist is the most euphoric AND racy strain ever. if someone knows of pure indicas that have euphoria, share the info. i've ONLY found euphoria in stony skunk #1, and that's 75% sativa (not enough for me)

there are some downsides to getting high though, especially with more potent sativas... they can make you twitchy and/or paranoid and if you overdo them, you can even get a really sucky room spinning dizzy nausea that isn't fun.

the bottom line is getting high is the opposite of turning your body into tired lead and turning your brain into mush. they're about enjoying life for me. getting stoned not only annoys me, it depresses me. i've never liked it and i never will. if others prefer that, that's fine. i can understand med users that need to calm their nerves ot get some sleep. my issues is that GROWERS and DEALERS universally refuse to ever grow strains that get you high as they just chase as much indica yield as they can get and actually ARGUE with customers, like me, who demand better.

those of us that would rather get high than stoned don't get heard. now's your chance to show what the TRUE demand for weed is. the last time i did this, the results were almost evenly split with a SLIGHT preference towards the getting high side of things. by the laws of supply and demand then, half the shit on the streets should get you high, but it doesn't, unless your zip code is 90210 maybe,

Depends on the circumstances. I like a trippy energetic high when I'm doing some kind of activity like hiking or mountain biking. I like a good couchlock when I'm bedding down for the night. I sleep like a baby.

 

[mysunnyboy]

i like it all

 

[rowlman]

I'm heading outback to shoot myself.

 

[mantiszn]

they both serve different purposes...

you don't put a band-aid on your forehead when you have a headache...

 

[bowlfullofbliss]

I'm not personally a big fan of getting high anymore. I just blaze at night to help relieve crushing back pain so I can sleep through the night, or at least a few hours. So stoned it is for me.

 

[hazey grapes]

i like a trippy visual and auditory buzz with a more neutral energy level myself. kali mist and even C99 are too clear headed and racy for me. my current favorite strain, jack's cleaner 2 has a noticeable body thump with awesome warm and fuzzy touchy feely euphoria, but is still functional. too racy, and you can't sit down on a strain. pure couchlock though? oh that shit just pisses me off!

the first indica i ever scored was a "bargain". i bought two different fat "red hair & skunk" buds that probably weighed over 3 grams combined for the $8 i had in my pocket, but when i got home and blazed them, i was soooooooo pissed off! no matter how much i smoked, i couldn't get high. the very first bud i ever smoked was fucking extra trippy columbian gold, even if everyone called it thai for the brand recognition. that spoiled me for getting high. had i smoked indica the first time, there never would have been a second. i have no use at all for getting tired and stupid. i can do that free by running around all day and scarfing turkey and a warm glass of milk when i get home. getting stoned makes no sense to me at all. i hate it and the fact that virtually every grower/dealer ONLY offers that option. this is why i grow my own. i'd be happy to buy from someone else if only i could find anyone that has anything i'd call acceptable.

back in NY, there's places where the market is so freakin' afghani (canadian warehouse beasters!!!!) that crappy skunk #1 makes you think you've scored awesome because at least that has some euphoria going on and is at least functional a week or so. haze skunk walks all over that shit and takes a dump on it though. even after a month of wake & bake, i still got no worse than lead eye off that and quit drinking, lost 10 pounds and once i realized how much healthier i was getting, started working out too.

if any of you are growing at least some gear that gets your peeps high, you're my fucking hero man! i wish i could score some of your whatever right fucking now! i'm serious! i just had to tell yet another uppity (and flaky in his case) purveyor of stone to go fuck himself. i still say the bitch was holding out on the RKS freebie i gave him because that should have been better than any of his other stoner schwag. i tell ya, there's nothing like popping $4o for an eigth and having it gone in 3 fucking days with little to show for.

anyone looking for strains that get you high should try TGA's jack's cleaner 2 (his jack the ripper is supposed to be extra trippy and third dimension is someone else's fave), DNA sweet haze, HQS haze x skunk, mandala's 8 miles high and considering sannies' rep, his jack f7 and killing fields in particular have to rock. i didn't get to finish it, but i was REALLY liking what i saw from holy smokes' malawi gold. it's stetchy and low yielding probably, but it's nowhere near as bitchy as highland thai. i'm going to use it as a male this winter. even DNA's lemon skunk kicks street beaster ass. it not only tastes better than skunk #1, but it's nowhere near as stony. it isn't trippy, but euphoria with positive energy means you can get something done besides melt into a couch.

hopefully anyone that's a stoner won't take my contempt for indicas personally, unless they're another grower/dealer that has nothing but contempt for customers like me who have no respect for their same old same old achwag appeal shit. i've wasted thousand of dollars and almost three decades of my life trying to get high and not one fucking dealer has gotten me there short of brothers in the hood that were selling sacks of brick up to the 90s, but scoring that isn't worth fucking dying for. LOL

i'm surprised no one has preferred stoned even a little yet. regardless, just like the other survey, this poll is showing that a fair number of people aren't impressed with getting stoned. that's my point. consider this market research for those who think supply and deman means "i demand you accept whatever i supply you".

 

[stoned cockatoo]

Hazey why don't you just go do meth

 

[UncleNasty]

I don't usually get stupid high

But when I do, I'm sleeping

I think

 

[silasraven]

cant find a weed strain yet with a high that doesnt confuse the shit out of me when studying. DP is up next for the try.

 

[tumorhead]

Party like ted haggard!

 

[cannabineer]

I like getting something in the middle, but have not been around any friendly middles of late. cn

 

[ProfessorPotSnob]

The solo cup judge is back ! Hurry and get your solo cup buds up and ready for testing !

I speed read and just cant finish reading his babble, no matter what I do lmfao .Go CrazyGrapes

 

[hazey grapes]

look at that... getting high takes the early lead and the market bitches and trolls and bitches some more, but getting high is getting all them votes. oh, that's gotta sting cash crappers.

represent my high flying siblings!
for you, i'll toss that jack rabbit kibble or some fruity heys

so far, i'd actually call jack's cleaner 2 a mid, but it has all kinds of columbian type fun effects. a mellow balance of CBD & CBN isn't that bad, but even skunk #1 is too stony with nothing but euphoria to recommend for it. too bad i won't ever get to sample the LA cons i gifted to a flake on my FU list. THAT's something i've done "for the community" after one troll asked. i gave away 4 out of five TH seeds OGs and other skunks, blue widow, a bunch of shit. my gear that gets you wasted doesn't USUALLY go to waste. now to find someone who'd have use for amsterdam skunk and some other funk i ain't hearin'

there's no reason any strain should be stinking my garden up. it's an unwanted cash crapping holdover used to brainwash smokers into spending MORE money on inferior, but easier to take shorts on gear.

there's gotta be at least one "med user" up in here to represent for getting stoned though. i'd expect the votes to be a little closer, but i'm liking them right now

OK, one just did
4 high only
3 high
10 mids
1 mild stone
no KO stoners

7 to one so far in favor of what ain't on the streets. democracy in fucking action... SOMEWHERE. not that the votes will change anything though.

 

[mantiszn]

Umm the both are fine option is actually leading.. By more than double the votes.
I thought these guys were just being mean to you.. But I guess you kinda are a bit retarded.

[D3monic]

i'm sorry... I just don't get it. Maybe I did WAY too much acid as a kid but i just don't get the "psychedelic" auditory buzz thing every one references with good sativas. yea I get high, some times retarded but never "trippy" ... havent smoked a mid in god knows when so def not the quality. Prefer sativa heavy strains. I'm lazy enough as it is. Don't need to be locked to the couch. Except yea, a indica would be good right now since i am wide awake after smoking and its 1am need to get up for work in a few.

 

[hazey grapes]

Hazey why don't you just go do meth

no, kali mist is NOT a favorite buzz at all, even C99. not my stile junior. not that old school real everyone's too punkj ass bitch to deal. hate all you want, but you only reveal your scared inner child when you verbally assault. that, or mom and pops didn't pay enough attention to you or cancelled your worlds of warcraft account.

i tell ya, fucking commies just hate to see democracy.

OCCUPY! by any means necessary

actually, my very favorite buzz has more stone in it than i'd like were it not for those awesome touchy feely effects on top of the warm and fuzzy euphoria with NICE visuals to boot, jack's cleaner 2. looking at the votes here, MOST people would love that shit too. i'm still looking for better, but i've already found much better than 99% of the cash crapper gear you can't get away from unless you're in socal or something.

now "my peeps" are running some "there's more of us than there are of you" game, if only with votes. all these years i've been pissing trolls off, i've been fighting for the winning team. no trash you can talk will ever change that.

if you ever run into me, don't act the fool, and if you're LUCKY and i'm holding some cleaner, sweet haze, haze skunk or even malawi gold, here, i got more where that came from. (that's future tense) i got a lot a nada right about now after telling yet another stone slinger to fuck off for acting the bitch.

some day, i want to perfect a purple grape haze, but it'd never make it to market unless i lived in canada or something. it's fun trying gear you know's better than what's on the street, even if it is another tired old generic haze that smokes more like you'd expect skunk #1 to with it's 75% sativa.

i'm sorry... I just don't get it. Maybe I did WAY too much acid as a kid but i just don't get the "psychedelic" auditory buzz thing every one references with good sativas. yea I get high, some times retarded but never "trippy" ... havent smoked a mid in god knows when so def not the quality. Prefer sativa heavy strains

see? that's the same shit happening EVERYWHERE i'm talking about. if you want a genuine old school trippy high, an IBL grower here keeps pushing the ace panama (definitely an old timer's haze kinda guy) for being trippy. i never got to finish uppity diva highland thai, but can vouch for the authentic tutti fruity flavor (was that what little richard was REALLY singing about?) and a grower that finished it said it was trippy too. when i cut mine down for turning hermie and i'd had enough, all i got was crazy potent stone just about out of the tiny sub-popcorn starts.

TGA mean named jack the ripper and sannies equally insane named killing fields are supposed to be for real trippy in faster more manageable strains and the third dimension, jack's f7 & jack hammer are supposedly some degree of trippy too.

j cleaner had interesting visuals. i was rubbing my arm and chest on it because of that cool touchy feely effect, and i started imagining invisible ripples of tie dye color emanating from where i was getting into massaging myself. WOW! made me laugh like a mofo once i realized i final got some old school!

haze skunk and sweet haze have some degree of trippiness too. i want to compare all three under identical conditions under full spectrum halide to compare their buzzes in more detail. haze skunk's cheesy cigar wrapper flavor is annoying, but there's worse while sweet haze has an awesome fruity flavor, so it clearly wins for overall quality, but for $28, the haze skunk is some seriously potent shit. definitely more resinous than REAL columbian gold and probably longer lasting too as i still felt it the next day. gold would turn as stony as skunk #1 after a month though where the haze skunk was just building up in my system for a 24/7 light buzz with nothing worse than lead eye.

8 miles high has some light psychoactivity with an awesome neutral energy profile that isn't racy or jittery, or stony either, kind of like a "generic haze" but with an added precise body controll effect that was in the light & floaty effect category like real gold. i'm POSITIVE that's where the term get high originated because you really did feel lighter than air on gold.

that strain was really trippy! if you'd like to read up more on what gold was like, i'll look the post i made about the very first time i got high and some other fun experiences. the 80s was the happiest time in my life, in large part because of columbian gold. it wasn't the dark hellhole world we live in now and have to fight for our very lives and souls.

https://www.rollitup.org/smoke-reports/475400-my-first-time-getting-high.html

those are the trippiest strains i've tried so far. durban poison? naw... mild generic haze buzz that even some better mexican commercial was better than up 'til the 90s. kali mist has virtually no psychoactivity, just speedy mcfeely grade grinning from ear to ear tweakin'. still, even that's better than afghani. i begged my sister's BF that tossed me grams of that and the durban to sell it to me for $120 for a fucking EIGTH and even THEN, could not score. i feel your pain not experiencing all the joys that the dark side wants to deprive you of that getting high offers, but there's gear yoiu can grow yourself that will get you there in as little as 9 weeks.

 

[dirtsurfr]

I mix and match to what I feel like durring the day.

 

[hazey grapes]

everyone's different. i just fucking DESPISE getting stoned. it offers me absolutely nothing i like at all. the votes that show the demand for getting high, some 10 to 1 now is the very reason i'm so vocal and uppity because the shit people REALLY want is never what they're getting. i wish i had some columbian gold to beam everyone that likes getting high straight outta 1985.

it's just a fucked up world where those that prefer getting stoned are in the minority, but the market caters only to them... the greedy pockets of dealers actually. it's an injustice and oh i so like putting my foot up the ass of the injust or unjust WTF ever. that's another reason i'm troll bait. money rollin' new jack think they're the mac in control of the game, and i'm the only one just about saying fuck you to them. i threaten their sense of power and it drives them nuts.

someone's got to.

it's all good, there are so many jack herer and like strains out there now with decent yields in just a couple weeks more than the cash crapper strains that they're running out of excuses to perpetuate the "bag appeal" myth. once you get high, you never forget, even if you're the twitchy kind of person that freaks out. LOL i still say the two gal unrelated pals i knew that claimed they got dosed at concerts just got hold of someone's headstash grown from mexcom and weren't prepared for not getting stoned. either that, or they hang with some serious douchebags... oh wait, one was a porn star, i take that back.

 

[dirtsurfr]

Wow man smoke sum Indica.....
