Are these pollen sacs? Because this plant has already trolled me with bobbles that then spat out white hairs. I'm still a noob
  • Looks like it, but it's been a good while since I've been around actual plants.

    Could be a hermaphrodite. I've had those and ended up having to cull them. Not only can they self-pollinate, they can pollinate any others you have too.

    It's been forever, though, so maybe someone else can confirm/deny my opinion.

  • How was your day, Lemmy? Because mine was mortifying!
  • No, I work remotely as do about 1/3 of my department. So they were either at their desks at home or the office. The vendors seemed to be setup similarly, so thankfully, wasn't on a big screen in a conference room. (whew!)

  • How was your day, Lemmy? Because mine was mortifying!

    I got stuck on a lunchtime video conference today with some people in my department and a vendor. I hate meetings at noon, but with timezones being a factor, it was the only available time the vendor could meet. Usually, I'm only on these for technical consultation, so I rarely need to speak other than to clarify a point or answer questions about our infrastructure. Those are usually toward the end of the meeting.

    That said, I just muted myself and ate at my desk because I was starving and would have plenty of time to eat a quick bite before it got to the point where I had to say anything.

    What I did not realize was that even though I was muted, my webcam was on. So 6 people I work with plus three vendors all watched me eat a bag of tacos, and no one said anything!

    Like, when I eat a taco with people around, I do eat it in a dignified way. Less so when I'm alone (or think I'm alone) and wolfing it down before I have to do something So, yeah, it was not a pretty sight.

    I'm still mortified, but at least I am laughing about it as I'm typing this out.

    I actually prefer Δ8 to smoking a joint
  • Yeah, I used to do the dry herb vapes. They were nice, but cleaning them was a chore. Never could afford a Volcano when I was still a regular smoker, but I inherited a dry herb pen vape from a buddy who upgraded. 10/10 would recommend (despite the cleaning required)

  • I actually prefer Δ8 to smoking a joint
  • It definitely does hit you the same as regular delta-9 THC does, just not as strong/intense and doesn't last as long. For me, that's the draw. For my regular weed-smoking friends, it's a common complaint.

    If you do decide to try it for pain relief, I'll warn you the distillate vapes are pretty harsh, so do little puffs. I like the gummies, myself, but they hit harder than the vapes (as with most THC edibles) and have to cut them into quarters to not get stupid high.

    I have terrible knees that ache constantly, and these do help (though so did CBD, just without the head change I also wanted).

    Please don't take this as medical advice, lol, just my own experience.

  • I actually prefer Δ8 to smoking a joint

    I get a lot of sass from my buddies when we're hanging out and they're passing a joint while I pass and prefer my Δ8 vape (or gummies).

    I used to be right there with them, often bogarting the hell out of it, but ever since I officially became old, I just don't enjoy getting "stupid" high anymore; I'm such a lightweight these days I can't even just take a small puff without it being more than I want. I'd much rather have a light head change and still be mostly clear headed.

    I'm not a square, just old and happy with my less intense buzz :)
