I moved to Atlanta last year to escape the hell hole that is Florida. One problem, I can’t buy overpriced “medical” weed, which at this point I’m dying to have again. So, does anyone know anyone or a way for me to find some? This might not be the right place to post this but I’m at a loss. It’s not really fun facing hell world sober and drinking sucks and makes me fat :(

        Depends on the dealer. Weed dealer doesn't automatically mean bad person, especially when you find a dealer who only deals weed.

        Delta 8 hasn't been produced for very long so no real long term reports. It sketches me out. I order hemp buds online and it gets me stoned, the plants have more thc then they claim. I feel much better about smoking or vaping a plant rather than something that's been chemically processed to make the new trucks top drug.

            Nice yeah, fuck yeah science. Cannabis contains 0.1% delta-8-THC. People have been smoking regular weed for thousands of years. You want to isolate a single chemical and mainline it while screaming fuck you hippies, I guess it's your legal right for now, but who said natural = better? It's a matter of long term anecdotal evidence. I wouldn't isolate a single chemical in an apple and take it in large quantities either if it got me high. And yeah, you need to clarify you are talking about the product, if you are going to state that buying weed from a dealer is sketchy. That isn't assumed. It absolutely can dangerous for many reasons beyond the product if you don't know the person you're dealing with. holy shit, I feel like I'm on :reddit-logo: right now. I've been able to find an organic grower in every city I've lived, which is...a lot of places. You just need to look around. Besides all that, single cannabinoid distillates are unpleasant for many people and prone to giving users nasty psychological side effects. Enjoy your truck stop hemp sprayed with d-8 I guess. :shrug-outta-hecks:

            independently lab tested sample

            Chiming in with my experiences from the :kkkanada: grey market there is very little chance that each run of the extract is actually tested independently. More likely there is a Volkwagen E-testing-style switcheroo happening in the best case.

            Every time I would see "LEGIT VERIFIED LAB TESTS" from a vendor one of the next times I hear their name from a non-bot account is talking about truly horrific QC issues like debris in a $300 jar of honey errl.

            If you wanna be cavalier with your health it is your perogative, but I think that this is a waaaaaay more risky//less healthy decision than you are painting it as.

        my current dealer will give me a sealed oz of product from a legal state, lol

        too bad I can't afford it

        Is it though? I thought most of the synthetic stuff was labeled as incense so that the FDA doesn’t have to review it

        I get what they’re saying. All the vape stores that sell it are a little sketchy about it but that also makes sense too. I’ve found that the gummies worked the best for me but it’s just not quite the same as a nice bowl/joint/bong of actual flower.

          I would say don't get delta 8 flower but you could get concentrate and get some cbd and basically hit the concentrate and smoke a bowl of CBD to get a more full effect
