Recreation or Medication... What's your intake?

[TruthOrLie]

While arguing the cost of purchasing "top shelf" nugs, someone argued with me that I'm complaining about the price unnecessarily because "most people only need a gram of top shelf a day."

I don't know if you medicate or just use it for fun... but I need WAY more than one gram of top shelf a day. How about you folks?

ahh, that was directed at us both, remember we have been instructed to start our own dispensary, lol.

agree. a gram gone by lunch. each day I probably smoke two to three grams of bud, and a gram of bubble hash. Then I eat a hash/coconut oil capsule in the evenings. That's for chilling. If I am going out and smoking with friends, 1/8s will disappear like nothing.

I couldn't answer the poll because neither suits me. I've been growing forever so I don't have to think about how much I actually smoke. lol

Most growers have a little different outlook....

Most smoke every day.... Doesn't cost ANYTHING

I still have a couple of oz of killer Pre-98 Bubba Kush and around an oz of killer Blue dream, all cured out. And I will be harvesting this weekend, probably 8 + oz.

If I smoke the Blue dream during the day, it can be very interesting.

If I smoke the Bubba Kush during the day, I don't get much done.

I think that is rather biased. Unless you use for medical purposes in order not to use heavier drugs, I'd say most of us don't smoke anywhere near that.

The majority of tokers aren't raging potheads. They hold down jobs, families, etc. I don't know about you but I wouldn't want the majority of people I deal with on a daily basis (except for perhaps fast food employees, parking lot attendants, gas station cashiers, etc) to have finished a gram before lunch. Rather crazy honestly.

I think the majority of potheads even if they smoke everyday, probably use less than a gram. I personally smoke about a half gram a day. Most of the regular tokers I know smoke somewhere in the vicinity of an 1/8 a week.

They'll usually tell you otherwise, but most people I know who smoke over a gram a day don't accomplish much. Unless you consider smoking a lot of weed every day an accomplishment. I think most tokers smoke after dinner or before bed. Not as an all day affair. Unless you're just a pot grower most people have too many responsibilities to be high all day long.

if i had to pay i couldnt afford 1 gram a day from aaa stuff from clubs. and i need atleast 3 grams minimum. i grow my own

 

[ZEROorDIE]

i smoke during the day for funh and at night to sleep and only once in the morning, just to get me going, thats a small one cant be retarded at work.

all in all about 1/8 per week plus about a gram of drysift. only top shelf. this is how i keep my tolerance in check. i have a nice baseline so i can function high but i can still get really blazed if i want to and not spend a fortune.

when im growing indoor its a bit different as its more cyclic, outdoor is one and done so i have to conserve through out the year.

 

[Phillthy]

i may smoke 3 grams a week

 

[TruthOrLie]

Personally I smoke way more than a gram a day, plus I smoke with other people who smoke more than a gram a day, and I provide for them.

If I had to buy this shit at the price it costs, retail, I would be broke.

Before I started figuring out how to manage my habits better I probably spent over a quarter million dollars on weed and weed related misfortune.

You guys thinking its "fairly priced" are so crazy weird in the head.

For every dollar I spent on my habit that I have enjoyed, I probably matched a dollar for dollar in fines, lost time from work incarcerated, lost job opportunities because of probation, whack purchases and whack dealers.

EDIT: LAWYER FEES

1/2 gram a day at the most usually, but I am not in pain and usually start later in the day.

Of course there are days I smoke more but usually less.

I get a chuckle when I hear anyone refer to MJ with the term "gram"

Sounds like "kid stuff" to me

seriously. when I was in high school a gram was significant.

im a grown man now folks. You'll be one too, one day!

haha, j/k no offense intended to you lightweights

 

[mintz]

dont know about outa london uk but me and most people i know smoke a 1/8 upwards depends on ones income or life style every day,all day and thats workers in all fields of work,been doing it most days than not since 1985

 

[motaco]

actually to me its kinda kid stuff to brag about how much pot you smoke. Just sayin.

 

[420somewhere]

What ?

What ?

I think that is rather biased. Unless you use for medical purposes in order not to use heavier drugs, I'd say most of us don't smoke anywhere near that.

I've been smokin for more than 40 years, I've always smoke that much.

The majority of tokers aren't raging potheads. They hold down jobs, families, etc. I don't know about you but I wouldn't want the majority of people I deal with on a daily basis (except for perhaps fast food employees, parking lot attendants, gas station cashiers, etc) to have finished a gram before lunch. Rather crazy honestly.

Honestly, I've been working for the last 45 years. I've worked for the man, started a few businesses, been an director in a couple of major public corps, I've always have a job. And have my own profitable company right now.

I think the majority of potheads even if they smoke everyday, probably use less than a gram. I personally smoke about a half gram a day. Most of the regular tokers I know smoke somewhere in the vicinity of an 1/8 a week.

My wife smokes more than an 1/8th a week.

They'll usually tell you otherwise, but most people I know who smoke over a gram a day don't accomplish much. Unless you consider smoking a lot of weed every day an accomplishment. I think most tokers smoke after dinner or before bed. Not as an all day affair. Unless you're just a pot grower most people have too many responsibilities to be high all day long.

Like I said, life is a bitch and most of us learn to get over it, others just bitch.

I'm moving on, life is such a beautiful thing.

Interesting thread...

Since i havent been able to grow for about a year now...and my overstock got dried up about 3-4 months ago..so i have been having to buy lately..let me just say i hate it lol..

I usually go threw 1.5 grams a day..honestly when i grew i didnt smoke that much more..maybe 2.5 on an off day.

For eight hours during the day i dont get a chance to smoke since im at work..only leaves another 8 hours to consume the goods since i need at least 8 hours of sleep

 

[supermanlives]

i wish i was a kid again and my tolerance was low. i also feel this way about beer. i can drink a sixpack with my pizza and not feel buzzed. aah to be young again

 

[TruthOrLie]

who is bragging?

kindly stating the facts.

there are many people who use more than a gram a day, but if they had to pay retail for it would probably drastically reduce their intake. (I would say 50% is a drastic reduction)

I know for a fact if I could pay tobacco (or tomato) prices I wouldn't bother growing my own.

what, you mean you eat more than a slice?

 

[Hammerhead]

I dont smoke very much anymore. I use to smoke allot many years ago. When I started to focus on my carrier I stopped growing smoking for many years now I can't even smoke a bowl. 1 or 2 hits and I'm done.

 

[DirtySouthTo707]

I smoke it till its gone and then I grow some more. I find it kind of funny that people log into a pot smokers website to tell others they smoke to much.I smoke for a number of reasons some medical some not.And to those that say people who smoke all day and dont get anything done,I say Come hang with me one day and I will run circles around you while Im high as sh$t!
