Pre-'98 Bubba Kush X djs Blueberry

[swishaman]

How do skunks work for you Space?

Was the Blueberry you tried a Sativa pheno? I think Blueberry crossed with a high CBD indica, and then back crossed to the blueberry would be exceptional.. BB and GrapeK have extraordinary anti-anxiety properties to begin with.. Might just need more CBD... You might try just mixing different strains together... If you can't find one that does what you want, mixing two may produce the desired effect. How "knock-out" do you want it to be? I would think Blueberry/GrapeK would be 35-45% CBD.. Maybe a little less, but I really dont think it's less than 35.

It's great you're tapering them off...just be careful. You already know that, but yeah

After I was prescribed Lorazepam and complained about it turning me into "Captain Shady", she tried a non-Benzo. It basically works like benadryl... I don't like them because I took one and slept half the day...but they might be better in super low dose... like a quarter of a pill... it's called Hydroxyzine HCL. It's non-narcotic as far as I know... and seemed pretty harmless when she explained it to me...

skunks work fairly well for my anxiety (a cut of tfd's "the pure" to be more specific) but unfortunately they do little to nothing for my psychotic symptoms and I really need help with that as I have type II bipolar and schizophrenia (but that's a whole other story) Pharmaceutical anti-psychotics turn me into a zombie and raise my blood sugar levels to a near diabetic level and they only sort of work... That's why i'm excited to get my hands on those high cbd varieties.

"How "knock-out" do you want it to be?" I prefer mild sedation but not to the point that I cant function, euphoria isn't bad either.

And I'm being very very careful tapering off the benzos, I know all the risks and I really don't want to have seizures although I'm on an anti-convulsant as a mood stabilizer.

have you tried a bubblegum?
i struggle with anxiety and found bubblegum
to help me a lot, but one thing i've noticed
is you have to set the situation right for you to
enjoy yourself, anxiety stems from worrying, often about
things you can't control, so make sure you are in a secure
place and in a good mood while medicating, or at least trying
to get into a good mood, because bubblegum has kind of a racy
start to the high that freaks some people out...

i know how it is to have anxiety attacks and such, so weed
is my number one med now, i hate benzos and all other meds
and i wish you the best in getting green 100% and leaving the
pharms out~ best thing i ever did~ but it took baby steps to
get there

good luck

yeah, i've grown tons of bubblegum varieties, bogglegum(my fav), serious bub, sour bubble bx2. They work well esp the boggle, I must have run that cut 20 times inside and out, but I lost it during a move due to a friend's brown thumb... I really miss that cut... :'(

Thanks for the support and ideas.

Space Ghost-
I have some Bubblegum and SourBubbleBX4 varieties coming soon to the Bay.
Keep an eye out if you're interested, the ogbubblegum is an S1 of BOGs
keeper Bubblegum mother he inbred from WhiteLabel DoubleGum, he used the mother
of this ogbubblegum to breed BOGbubble and Bogglegum, also you may enjoy
the varieties i crossed with SourBubble.
Also, have you tried Chemdawg, GDP, OG Kush? What did ya think if so?

[Space Ghost]

Have you thought about trying to recreate a bogglegum like strain, by that I mean cross the ogbubblegum to a male nl#5 and then backcrossing until you get something worthwhile?

I've tried cdd and I like it but have no access to the clone, I've tried numerous gdp's most are too weak but there was one that was just right i think it's out of garberville? could be totally wrong... and again, no access to the desired clone. I have tried ogk a few times and enjoyed it, a little too crushing for me but it's nice. I have some seeds from JLP that are OGK bx1 f2's maybe I'll pop those and see if I can find something interesting. But I'm almost certain that I need a (relatively)high cbd strain...

Hmmmmm.... I should read up on schizophrenia. I have always had an interest and 'talent' for psychology and psychotherapy, but haven't really ever touched down on it or other 'heavy' disorders.

Though I can say that anti-convulsants are used to treat bipolar I. Are they using it for schizophrenia or BPII? Later I will read about it all and try to find something out... best friends birthday so I don't have time atm

Also I wanted to ask how eating and vaporizing go with you... they all release diff cannabinoids...a combination using the right strains might work also...

It definitely seems like you need a solid mix that isn't leaning too much toward indica, but more indica than sativa. I really think a combination of different consumption methods could have serious potential...

i'll do some reading later on and try to draw a more accurate conclusion.. will need to brush up on my 'consumption method facts' as well..

until then!

The anti-convulsant (lamotragine) is used for my type II because it works and it is also a mild anti-depressant so it's kind of killing two birds with one stone. my mood is very stable for the most part, although I do slip into depressive episodes and I get hypomanic a couple times a year.

Thanks for all the help guys!

If only TRC's Sweet13 were something findable... that was a super mellow head-high strain I wish I had kept.

Another good one to look for might be 'Sweet Blue Skunk' It was (I believe a joint project of BreederSteve's Island Sweet Skunk and DJ Short's Blueberry) some of the best stuff... the pheno I kept was an indica dom tight nugged gal that was quite colorful too. Very sedative quality to it. Not too sure if that might be the ticket, just thought I'd throw that out there. Not too sure about availability though.

Nice report man, the bud sounds dank, I especially love your description of the flavour!

Sucks about the anxiety though. I find smoking weed as opposed to other forms of consuming it (eating and vaporizing) can cause more anxiety effects. Also doming a 1 gram joint of almost any type of bud would completely wreck me and send me into a panic attack and I don't have any previous anxiety problems. For me I find smoking anything over a .1g of a potent strain will give me the noids/anxiety.
