'EATING' strain of MJ

Hi folx!

I couldn't find any thread like this on my search so...

Does anyone know of any accessible strain of MJ that can be eaten, as a dried herb, with no preparation, for what is actually a very good high?

I ran across weed in ARUBA, which I was able to eat, and get quite stoned.
From a reasonably small amount of weed - about one gram or less.
The high came on STRONG about 45 minutes later, and lasted all night.
YES, I WOKE UP STONED!!

This is true.
I know about the science of preparing weed for eating, cooking in alcohol, oil or fat first etc., but this was my experience.
Uncooked weed from ARUBA, eaten 'raw', got me quite stoned!

I stumbled upon this because I was forced to eat my weed supply, as a performer on a cruise ship suffering unfair persecution.
No other weed have I found ANYWHERE that I could simply eat 'raw' that way and get VERY satisfactorily stoned.

Does anyone know of any weed, seed, like this?

What, where, how to find etc.?

Keep on tokin'!!

 

I don't think that's actually possible. like im pretty sure its actually physically impossible for you to get high by eating the plant raw. placebo effect?

 

Believe it my man, it happened!!

I am a 40++ year smoker.
I am NOT gonna be "placebo'ed".

I ate the plant RAW, and got VERY STONED!!
I repeated the process many times.
Got VERY STONED, many times!

Weed from ARUBA US V.I.!!

 

i don't doubt it.

do you mind sharing your story of how you ended up having to eat your supply?

 

As I mentioned, I was a performer on a cruise ship, touring the Caribbean Islands. Got BUSTED(!!) smokin' a J in the rear of the ship. The draft at the rear of a ship in full cruise is TREMENDOUS, and of course dissipated all smell.
I had a lung FULL when I looked up and saw a security officer 'grunt' eyeballing me.
I held the smoke and as he approached and then questioned me.
As I was able, I let the smoke out on the sly into that tremendous draft, all the while holding onto what was left of the joint, hiding it in my hand.
B.S.ing the grunt, of course, as to the purpose of my location.
He eventually left, suspicious but unable to complete the 'bust'.

I said 'what tha heck', and finished off the joint!

He soon returned with the head of ship security!!

Pretty much the same situation ensued, me fakin' the 'interview' while letting out what smoke I could, into the draft.
No longer any joint to hold on to though!

Again, I managed to escape the brig...

Of course, after that I was as good as a drug dealer, as far as they were concerned, and it put me 'under the microscope'.
Unable to risk smoking ANYWHERE without being caught, I decided to eat what I had left.
45 minutes later, I was stoned az hell!!
I only ate about a joint and a half's worth too!

I continued the cruise, eating that great ARUBA weed each day for my daily stoning.

I was eventually shown a ventilation system I could smoke under but by that time the cruise was just about up.

Afterwards I searched and searched for weed that I could eat, STRAIGHT, without having to also consume the FATS, OILS, and/or ALCOHOL, that the cooking recipes all call for.

Still searching until this day!

 

"Afterwards I searched and searched for weed that I could eat, STRAIGHT, without having to also consume the FATS, OILS, and/or ALCOHOL, that the cooking recipes all call for."


As you know, cooking in fat or alcohol increases the bodies abilities to absorb and use the THC. I'd imagine that eating raw pot still has some THC available for your body to process, its just that the high will be alot more effective if its cooked.

So, I would think its not strain dependant as much as quantity dependant. Eat more raw than you would cooked.

However, I'm curious in your objections to processing the plant at all. I understand not wanting to put huge quantities of fat or alcohol in your body. However, have you considered making a tincture? This is just a high-proof alcohol extraction that requires you to consume only several cc's of alcohol at a time if you make it strong enough.

Cheers

 

Well, lessee here...
As for strain v. quality dependent, let me elaborate on my experience.
After leaving the cruise ship, I tried as much local weed as I could from the OLD SAN JUAN section of Puerto Rico where the ship was docked.
This, thinking a nearby strain may have the same qualities.
But, not one buzz, despite how much I ate.

After leaving The Islands, I wasted a number of dollars eating drug dealer weed.
Again to no effect whatsoever.

And as for amount, if you check my post, you will see that I ate about 1 gram of ARUBA weed. For me that's about a 1 2/3 joints worth of weed.
This got me thoroughly stoned for the MIDNIGHT MEAL which is served on the ship at, yep(!!), midnight.

Waking up at about 8 am I was STILL good and stoned!

This happened over and over with that great ARUBA weed.

NOT much weed being eaten, got me VERY stoned.
The high lasted quite long.

I tried eating many a gram or two of hi quality, commercial/drug dealer weed afterwards and NADA.
No high.
Just like the cookbooks say.
And, I wasn't gonna continue THROWING AWAY WEED by eating it and NOT getting high!!

So this was one motivating factor for me becoming a grower.
That gave me the opportunity to sample eating weed, without the COST of experimenting with drug dealer prices.

STILL, not one high from eating weed.
And you can bet, I ate a LOT more of my home grown hydro than I ever did on board.
NO HIGH!
Regardless of amount.
(but I didn't try eating 1/4 ounces or anything!)

Though possibly eating a LARGE amount of weed may trigger some euphoria, that would pretty much defeat the purpose.
WASTING large amounts of weed for a tiny high.

I did experiment with cooking weed but I have a VERY low tolerance for alcohol.
Even the smallest amount of alcohol will affect me.
I can even feel the alcohol affect from 'near beer' and the like.

Alcoholism ran in my immediate family and after living with that, I have NO desire whatsoever to get alcohol flowing through my veins on a regular basis!

So I am not looking to consume ANY amount of alcohol just to get my WEED on.

As much as I regularly smoke, this would devastate me, as would consuming the high fat recipes used in the preparation of MJ for cooking/eating.

Believe me when I say this people!
I ate a modest (1.67 joints) amount of raw ARUBA weed and got VERY stoned.
I have yet to find or hear of a strain that I could eat raw and get a practical high going on like that.

This was over 16 years ago!
I have been searching and growing ever since in an effort to find such a strain.

Going to ARUBA again is probably the only way I'll POSSIBLY come across this type of weed again.

In the meantime, I just recently got this idea to see what progress I can make with my quest, by posting in forums.

It just hit me that with all the breeding experiments going on in HYDRO-LANDS worldwide, SOMEBODY may have come up with something, or or is aware this phenomenon.

ANYONE???

 

Dude, have you considered the possibility that your ARUBA might have had something else in it???

 

:cheers2:

 

Truthfully, I never considered such a thing!

But since you brought it up, that would only COMPLICATE the issue!!

WHAT is some dread head rasta going to put IN or ON weed and then go ahead and sell the concotion for the same price as regular weed?
Does that make sense to you?

Take good old Island weed, 'improve' it, or add something to it, and then sell it for the same price, after going to all that trouble??
Would you do such a thing?
Why would some po' ass Island rasta not want to charge cruise ship tourists a premium for weed that has been altered?

AAANNNDDD!!!
WHAT mysterious chemical/additive is this that one can eat and get a MARIJUANA high?
THC is unstable when seperated from the plant.
What other drug gives you a MJ high?

AAAAAAAANNNNNNNDDDDDD!!!!!!
How long have we been doing serious, comprehensive, scientific research on MJ?
50 years or so?
And judging from some of the published results of these 'studies', not much has BEEN done in the way of serious, comprehensive, scientific research, wouldn't you agree?

AND (oh what the hell...)
Isn't it much more likely that we just don't know enough about the Cannabis plant?
We know living things evolve.
We know about random genetic mutation.
Isn't that a much simpler and more likely scenario?

I heard there is weed that smells like BUBBLE GUM, can u dig that?!

 

TJ,

We're not doubting your experience, just throwing out possibilities. I find it hard to believe that ARUBA weed is chemically different than other pot, especially those grown in similiarly tropical locals.

If anything was added to your weed, it was possibly from the processing of hash. Meaning they used a volatile other chemical to strip the weed of kief and made hash. Then they sell the byproduct weed to tourists (tourists=suckers worldwide). Oncce the volatile substance evaporatied off, it would be less obvious to detect, and the THC remaining would be biologically available. THIS IS JUST ANOTHER POSSIBLITY.

So, everyone is saying they don't know what to tell you. Yes, you probably had raw weed that got you stoned like non-other, but this is apparently an experience unique to you.

Cheers and good luck on the mystery.

 

AHIMSA,
Thanx for your perspective AND information/possible explanation!

And yes, I am trying to understand this 'mystery'.
But if you look through this thread, you will see that there is at least one respondent who doubts my experience, thinking I had some, 'placebo' effect experience!

I am not saying that ARUBA weed is different 'chemically', only that it in fact got me high by eating it 'raw'.
But there's no denying the dynamix of EVOLUTION, and random genetic mutation.
That I think would be the most likely explanation.

I have made hash, during my growing years, but I can't see how that would make the weed 'edible'.
And this weed did quite well when smoked as well.
It was definitely 'potent'.
I'd love to hear a detailed explanation as to how making hash from weed, would result in a weed that would still get you very high when smoked OR eaten!!

I am NOT making this up.
I have read one book by someone who's mission was to explain the RASTA religion.
He was an 'islander'.
He mentioned in the book that he never SMOKED the weed, but often would 'chew on a few leaves' and meditate.
Whatever the effect, it at least points to people that do actually eat MJ raw as a personal practice.
Maybe one day I will be able to reference this book specifically.

Any of you who know the history of weed in America will recognize that there was a time when people smoked MJ 'leaves' mostly, unaware of the power of the buds.
I can't verify this except to say that I am aware of this practice.
In the annals of weed growers literature, you will come across the idea of maintaining a 'vegetative garden' that would NEVER be allowed to 'bud', for those that enjoy MJ leaves, as opposed to bud.
And, I know of a case where my home grown hydro was simply too much for a friend of mine to smoke, so she just took a puff or two of my shwag/waste leaves and bud bits.

I CAN'T be the only one who has had this experience, so I am putting this information and forum topic out here for those to offer any of their experiences along this line, and YES, to unravel this 'mystery' as well!!

Anyone???

 

TJ, whenever anyone says anything about eating weed, there are a great many people who proclaim 'placebo' on general principle.

Ignore them.

I don't have any further suggestions, save to say that it's more than possible, and very plausible, to get a gold, solid effect from eating weed, if the conditions are right.

good luck, man.

 

Good advice!

thanx...

& good luck 2 u 2!
