Any stand-outs other than the FW, TM and Mighty? Are you more a portable or desktop vaper?

Yes, the capsules are the same size between 8 and 9.

I recently got back into vaping. 15 years ago, I used to use a box with a whip at my desk and thought it was pretty awesome.

I switched to cartridges for the most part for a while, but decided to try dry herb vaping again.

Holy shit. Dry Herb Vaping technology is much more impressive these days. I've been tasting flavors like never before and I feel healthier.

Again, I wouldn't make the FW my primary, but it's currently in the daily rotation with the TM2 and Mighty+.

Definitely recommend having one for at least the novelty.

This sub is focused on vaporizing dry herbs, mostly flowers. I'm sure some people here enjoy nicotine, but I'm personally not interested. I vape to medicate.

Yes, Sour Diesel is a great strain. My only complaint is I get dry eyes and mouth from it (and many diesels).

This is a little more than bro science, which is what led me to these specific cannabinoids in the first place when comparing to my personal experiences.

Glad you found it helpful. It has been life changing for me, coming from street weed where getting desired effects was a roll of the dice.

Keywords dispensaries might use to market strains that might help you narrow your search: Energetic, Focus, Creative, Uplifting.

Depending on your location, availability and staff capabilities to assist you may be limited. CBG products are gaining popularity, and flower containing CBDv or THCv may be available but THCv dominate products will probably be less available.

You might have better luck trying CBD vendors. If you are capable and interested, homegrowing is an option. THCv dominate seeds are readily available online (take local laws into consideration).

CBDv when heated becomes THCv.

Another fun fact is CBG is known the "mother of all cannabinoids". It breaks down into all other cannabinoids.

I've done extensive bro science research on this.

Strains heavy in these cannabinoids help me manage ADHD: THCv, CBG, CBDv. They have stimulant-like effects, for ADHD and for me, this translates to clarity and focus.

Too much THC without any CBD or other C noid and you will probably be too high/anxious/paranoid to function properly.

THC dominate strains that stand out to me, Durban Poison, Girl Scout Cookies, Skunk #1, White Widow

If the lineage is Diesel or Haze related, there is a good chance it will help me medicate for ADHD symptoms. Sour Diesel, Blue Dream, Trainwreck, Pineapple Express.

Super boof is great too. Not all of these are necessarily high in THCv, terpenes also influence the direction of the high.

Many popular strains have been cross bred so much they are all hybrids which lean one direction or another. Most strains I medicate with are leaning sativa effects. 100% land-race sativas are also great. However, do not ignore indica-dominate strains based on "in-da-couch" rhetoric. Cali Raisin is an example of an Indica with Sativa effects that I adore.

Terpenes I found helpful for ADHD: Limonene, Terpinoline, Caryophyellene, Pinene, Linalool. Which loosely translates into citrus, spice and flowers, clove and spice, pine and earth, lavender.

There are THCv and CBDv dominant strains to look out for. You do lack the entourage effect with these, but they can be great mixers.

Yeah, we need something as active on lemmy fr.

But you went on to suggest they try it. They probably shouldn't.

What does it matter if it came from a friend?

I have an otherwise intelligent friend, well educated and runs many successful businesses. Casually during a conversation, he pulls put a fryd vape and starts smoking it. I educated him on the potential risks.

He was completely oblivious to the risks. The veneer provided by legit looking packaging, websites, store fronts lure the consumer into a false sense of security.

These gray market vapes contain boof juice that's has zero form of regulation on what you're inhaling into your lungs.

Legal dispensaries require very strict tracking, testing, regulation, enforcement.

Rule of thumb is to not trust any vape you didn't buy at a legal dispensary.

Fake packaging, and even prefilled fakes can be purchased in bulk online.

You only get one set of lungs. The mediocre high you might get isn't worth the potential long term damage.

If you can source clean concentrate, you can learn to fill your own with a few basic items. Much safer than BM carts.

/r/fakecartridges on reddit has a lot more info, I'm not sure what the lemmy equivalent is.

One of these days these guys is gonna...
