What about the great white north? My sister-in-law lives in Saratoga Springs and my mother-in-law in Montreal. When she goes to visit mum she always brings back an ounce of the green for personal use. Of course she is taking a change crossing the border but according to her no one seems to care and she has never been checked. Who knows?

You know I really believe some custom stops are worse than others.  The ones in Buffalo are not as bad as the one in the 1000 Islands.  That one is brutal!  Fuckers.  If I were sister in law I would also take advantage of the Walmart in the area.  She can save a  ton of money going there.  On things for the home that in Canada she is going to get whacked good on.  Yes I can get weed here for a good price compared to the marijuana store that is here.  If you have the medical card.  The bastards here STILL have not legalized it recreationally.  Its coming.  So is next Christmas.  I do not know what the jails are like in Canada, and do not want to find out either.  Been to some here.  Long time ago.  I have a crystal clean record, good credit, a pistol permit and the Canucks still would not let me in the fucking country because of something I did in 1981 that cant be found any where in the USA.  But the Canucks have it.  I have the necessary paper work if I ever go back.  But I doubt I will.  Why would I want to go there and freeze my ass off when I can go to California or Florida.  Fuck them

I keep seeing these news stories and youtube clips of the stores in the US and Canada and can't believe how behind we are here. I really hope PM Ardern gets the NZ laws in place so I can go across the ditch for a mad holiday.

I paid a visit to the local recreational dispensary for the first time.  I called the order in advance by phone...pulled in the parking lot....gave them a call to let them know I had arrived.  I put my money on the windshield under the wiper blade (cash only transactions)...and the edibles were dropped in the bed of my pickup at my request.  Never even rolled down the window.  It was 18 ribbon candies for $20 bucks.  I consider that a very fair price.  I've taken them twice after dinner....lol, and both times ended up watching a concert dvd (Zep & Yes) when it was the last thing I had planned for the evening.  I also put a large dent in a jar of Planter's dry roasted peanuts.  That wasn't scheduled either.  Slept like a log too.  

I also bought some 'garlic cookie' flower at 26.7% thc (the highest available).  $60 bucks for an 1/8.  That ain't cheap, but it's all relative.  You pay $40 bucks these days for a decent bottle of Bailey's Irish Cream. 

In the era of social distancing, it's now quite alright to bogart that joint....in fact, it's highly recommended that you do !

Ahhh in these days of madness, sense prevails from the man from the Motor City.

$60 for an 1/8th? Ouch !! Surprised that you actually used cash. We haven't used cash for a few weeks. I still have £15 in my wallet from 3 weeks ago. Going to trade some Pineapple Express with a chum for a few bottles of Rioja tomorrow. No need for cash anymore. Just another nail in the coffin for normality?

By the way how do you actually roll a joint with some green at 26.7% thc? It would knock me for 6

All pot stores in the U.S. are only authorized at the State level.  Since the Federal Gov't still views them as illegal, they are not allowed to utilize the U.S. banking system, or accept credit card transactions.  Everything must be cash.  Each store has an ATM one can use.  Really quite silly, but we have to play along until the likes of Kansas, Oklahoma, & Mississippi join the 21st century.

So a couch lock? Don't know who Don Gato is but I get your drift. Did you manage to sort the growing out? Maybe a couple on the balcony as you are on lockdown?

No such luck for me as I lent my LED's to a mate - what a bad mistake. Right before the lockdown too.

Planted 4 on the Spring Equinox and they're already sprouting.  Hoping at least 2 will be female.  I need some potting soil eventually, but I'm good until the first transplant.  Looks like vacations or golf  won't be on the agenda for awhile, so it's a good time to watch my garden grow.

I've also got this indoor Norway Spruce growing like crazy in my window.  I can't smoke it, but it's a prime candidate for some bonsai trimming/training.  Either that or I'm eventually  going to end up with a 6 foot Christmas tree growing in my house.   If I smoke some of that 26% thc stuff, I could probably spend hours removing one pine needle at a time...lol.

Well done man excellent. Be careful not to overwater with the babies in those big pots? Do you know the variety or have you just gone for bag weed seeds? Yes big pisser about the golf just as the weather gets good. But I will sacrifice a summer on the course as long as we can beat this shit and we all stay safe and healthy.

Be careful you don't skin up that spruce :D

The weed that I used to get from my peers in high school back in the 80s was ten dollars an eighth and was way better than the medical marijuana of today which goes for three times that amount.

More than likely the weed then was imported or correctly grown and cured. As we don't have medical weed here, it's hard to say about quality. Most smokers I know grow their own anyway and the quality is outstanding. Hash is now as rare as a truthful Trumpism. No one can import it and those who have stocks are keeping it until whenever. We don't have the problem as our jars are chokka ;)

Picked up some 60%THC concentrate.  Not sure what to do with it, but I bet I figure it out by the weekend.        

Hey Donny....considering this has been deemed an essential business, isn't it time for some essential banking ?  Could you imagine running a casino, bar, restaurant, or grocery store on a strictly cash basis during this event ?  Think it through Don....think it through.

Vape it, but be very, very careful. 60% THC is rocket fuel

I heard CBD oil shows up on your system if you do a drug screening for a job.

If your state allows medical or recreational weed your employer can't do shit, if they do you can sue them. The exception is jobs that require the operation of heavy or dangerous equip. but I believe you can get an exception but have to follow very strict criteria.

I’m from Jersey, you can’t even get a gun permit here, damn near impossible unless you’re a criminal.

You understand me, that’s not counting the unisons I use to potentiate them, because I’m getting use to the dosage and don’t want to ask my doctor for an increase in dosage. I’m a complete wreck especially now with this pandemic.
