This plant has zero THC content, but has the other useful, medicinal properties. It would be a hoot if the various MMJ states only allowed this version of cannabis. I guess it would weed out the casual users from the ones who really need medicine.

It has the same scent, shape and taste as the original plant — it’s all the same — but the numbing sensation that users are accustomed to has disappeared,” Klein told the Israeli paper Maariv. He said that many patients in his studies felt “tricked” because they thought they’d been given a placebo when they smoked it.

But while CBD doesn’t lead to the “munchies,” hallucinations or other effects commonly felt by marijuana users, it’s far from inert. As I reported last week, a preliminary trial of CBD for the treatment of people with schizophrenia found that it was as effective as a standard antipsychotic drug — with none of the movement disorders, mood issues or weight gain linked to that class of medications.

I've seen seeds for the type of cannabis you're talking about. Go ahead and search 'Odouls Kush' at Attitude Seed Bank and you'll see them. I'm skeptical.

That fake marijuana is bullshit. It's the THC-V that gets rid of my yelling racing thoughts. Without any kind of THC it wouldn't give my bi-polar a break.You're an asshole DD and the reason mj is demonized.People who do no harm need to be left alone.

Sunny,
I don't personally think it's funny. MJ is so demonized my wife only lets me use it when not taking care of the kids. That's only two days. If I eat one cookie I'm mellow, two I'm buzzed, three I'm high as fuck. She wants me on "real" meds. Bah.

So the CBN's and CBD's help my arthritis and fibro but the THC (-V according to above post) is what helps my OCD and ADD/ADHD. So, ummmm, MY medicinal needs include the THC side of the combo.

Seriously, cannabis is a multi-tool if ever there was one.

I have been called the Mix Master General, in my earlier days of PaRTeee! I'm a firm believer in the synergistic effects. The Dose is greater than the sum of the drugs. And when THC is out, no "numbing" sensation??? Obviously, they have no idea, right?

i don't think one bit of it is funny bunny. sorry but i don't think your troubles with your wife ALLOWING you to use your medicine is such a major issue. you have idiot 18 year olds who have a few aches and pains or some anxiety (who doesn't have anxiety?) and they are "prescribed" MMJ. i live in the wrong state, have titanium knees, have had a crushed pelvis, broken femurs and ankles, as well as migraines but i can't smoke a joint or eat an edible without being a dirty criminal. i don't have children to take care of. it's me and the mrs here no harm to anyone at all. no it's not fucking funny. :eyesmoke:
