You have to show ID, but pay cash.

Why?

The people who work there are very knowledgeable- go up to someone older rather than a guy in their early 20's.

And what medical training do they have for all this?

They are just “knowledgeable,” per the PP who is also in the “industry.” Isn’t that enough for you?

Of course. It's all such a holistic, healthy, grass roots industry full of knowledgeable and caring people looking out for your best interests, much like the alcohol and tobacco lobbies before it.

The tobacco industry still believes that smoking will help you lose weight.

It absolutely does.

Complete and utter horseshit. The half like of THC is 6 hours. It's 100 percent out of your system in 8 hours.

Lol that’s not how half lives work. If the half life is 6 hours, it’s 50 percent out of your system in 6 hours, 75 percent (another half of what’s left) out after 12 hours, etc.

I'm a dummy when it comes to anything related to this. I have never tried anything like this, ever.

You walk into a store that sells these gummies. Usually those stores are labeled as cannabis dispensaries. You tell the person there that you’d like to buy gummies but are clueless and want advice. Then you listen to the advice and decide from there.

I see the tabacco lobby is still active.

You can go lower than that. I sometimes take one that has 2 mg THC and 20 mg CBD. No one is having a difficult time with that.

This dose gives me the best sleep of my life, as I’m falling asleep. I feel like I’m in a cloud, and I wake up, totally refreshed.

Plus a million

Big fan of gummies, but they do mess with REM sleep, so you might fall asleep and even stay asleep longer, but the sleep quality is lower. If those are problems normally, it's still worth it! Garmin sleep tracking is NOT A FAN though.

It hasn’t been my experience or my mom’s. We both sleep like babies

I have two Miele canisters and the one with the smaller powerhead has a very easy to open bottom. My newer one with a bulkier head definitely looks more challenging to open but haven't needed to do it yet. We have a Sebo and that is the easiest to access with a little door on the side. The brush roll slides right out when you open it.

Ma'am, this is a Wendy's.

Unless you started celebrating 420 early today.

I'm 57. As soon as I retire from my job which can require random drug testing, I'll be buying some gummies too.

Most important thing to realize that it takes hours to ramp up and down, much slower than inhaling.

So try it on a day/evening when you aren't going anywhere, and if you take it at night, don't plan to go out early in the morning after.

There are even gummies with just 1mg. I get one that has 1mg THC, CBD, and melatonin. I usually take 2 but no more. Usually helps a bit with sleep but nothing miraculous.

I take 5mg indicate gummy like 90min to two hours before I want to fall asleep. I sleep amazing and no hangover.
