Should I fight MMJ discrimination?

Is the duration of the effect different when using a vaporizer?
I'm not sure if it is a shorter duration or not, I don't think I use any more than smoking in a day. I just have to get used to not having the feeling of smoke. As a smoker is feels strange to just be sucking vapors. I need to quit the cigs...I bought some juice for my vape pen.

I find the whole effect is different. When I vape and it doesn't take that edge off, I smoke.
The effect is different, a little, but it still seems to dull the aches. Your right that smoking a joint just somehow works better. Psychological?

I've been off the cigs for a few months now....using vape pen.
Good gear and a good juice was the key for me...good luck

Entourage effect. At least that's what I think it is. You get ALL the goodness, not just what's coming off at a certain temp. With so many constituents, they all have different vaporization temps. I have a list some where I'll try to find and post.

I get a headache when i vape @ low temps 200c and your right i don't feel satisfied i find 230c works for me.but different strokes for different folks one thing i really like about the vape is the pure taste (essence) of the strain...my holy grail taste just like lemon pledge i love it...

Well my two cents is Vaping for me just isn't as satisfying as a doob......love a good doob. It's just a ritual i like....lots. Not even the bong satisfies like a nicely rolled joint.

My extreme lasted about a day before I gave it away. I forgot what I already knew from years ago when Volcano's came out. :wall:
I hate the smell of popcorn. :lol:
Vaping is a VERY FINE line.
If you are after less smoke, that's about all they are good for.
They still smell and as hippy said. You don't get all the cannaboids unless you smoke it. ;)
Different temps for different shit.
by the way... the person I gave the machine to...gave it back. :lol: didn't like the popcorn smell either.

Skunk farm has a pretty good list under cannabinoids and terpenes.

Well I sold mine but yes same thing for me. First bag seemed ok but found the next blasts seemed ....popcorny. I know some folks love their though.
Wouldn't mind a volcano, but...joints is my fav.

Nothin like the great dank taste from a joint that seems to hang and stay on your tongue.

If they are accepting and willing to accommodate, what more can you really ask for? The vast majority of employers are not nearly as understanding. They are obviously willing to meet you halfway, I'd call that a win and just agree to their very reasonable requests.....they have to protect their behind as well as they are dealing with the general public.

In this sort of instance, I don't feel that nitpicking every detail is productive for yourself, or for other patients as a whole. We want more employers to recognize MMJ as a legitimate medication and do away with their outdated drug policies.
I agree, I'm the first one to fight when wronged, but considering MJ is still illegal, and the situation around the kids is just common sense, I'd say they're being reasonable. Fighting it further for the sake of fighting is like reacting to something based on pride, costly and unlikely to get you anywhere... other than maybe fired from what sounds like a sweet gig.

That was a much earlier post...June...when this all came to light. I agreed to the common sense stuff shortly after and everything has been fine-with the exception of forcing me to wait until they made a decision before granting me a contract. As I live where I work, it made my future uncertain. MJ is not illegal for me to have or use and I felt I should be treated no different than anyone with any medication. I didn't push or get defensive, I simply provided the info they asked for and waited for them to come back with the only legal solution available to them...which they did. It took them longer than I would have liked, but in the end it's a win-win.

Very happy you won.....thanks for breaking ground.

100% agree..apple and oranges.
The volcano is the best vape. I think it has to do with the large screen size where you load the product. Bigger is better.
I looked at the Volcano but the price turned me away. I've never used one so I don't know the difference. Is it that much better? Do you still prefer smoking? Might be a great Christmas gift idea for my son to get 'dear old dad'!
