Surely it’ll come down when people start catching on to how easy the plant is to grow? No need for it to be that price. If £30 is cheap for a bottle I’ll probably just give it a swerve. £70 plus for a decent CBD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those of us that get pish tested regularly that's not really an option though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PortyJambo Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 2 hours ago, Morph said: How long would that roughly last you? I know it varies person to person but are you talking about a month of daily use? Got myself a bottle of the Provacan one that Nixie recommended earlier in the thread. Says on it 200 drops, so at recommended 2-4 drops twice a day, it should last between 25-50 days. I've found the last few days that I've slept better, and seems a bit less stressed about some things, but not sure how much of that is a placebo effect. Will keep using and see how I feel after a few weeks. I suffer from chronic back pain, and haven't seen any difference in that, but tbh that was the thing I was least expecting it to help. The better night's sleep was the most important possible benefit to me, less waking up through the night in pain or being unable to sleep at all makes chronic pain much more bearable. Oh, and the delivery from them was very quick, ordered one day and delivered the next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tian447 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 On the back of this thread, I found a can of CBD infused juice called Green Monkey CBD in a shop and thought why not. It was next to the Red Bull but I don't think it had caffeine in it. It's apparently got 10mg of oil in it, and I did think it tasted a bit funny at first, but not bad. Can't really report on if it really did anything for me. Probably not the best quality stuff, but I didn't really feel any different after trying it out.

Spain's much more relaxed than here, some cities have cannabis clubs these days and many of the seedbanks have moved there as Amsterdam gets more conservative. I've taken cbd oil through customs but I don't know if I'm meant to. I've been having a LOT of bother with my shoulder and what seems to be osteoarthritis in my knees recently, so after a long absence I've been back on the cbd. For anxiety and mental stuff I recommend oil, but for pain I'm on e liquid just now for a more immediate effect. I've been thinking of dabbling and making my own actually, I have a t shirt press from an old design venture and once you've extracted the rosin it's just a case of cooking it into the liquid. Might try a medicinal batch and a recreational batch to be honest, love the thought of stealth vaping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Used a fair bit over the last few years. You’re not going to feel any benefit with the stuff from Holland and Barrett or a can of fizzy juice. Any change would almost definitely be a placebo, imo. Last oil I bought was a 2000mg/20% dropper. Cost me £120 but without going into specifics, it done me a power of good.

Ritchez Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Almost finished my bottle of Provacan 600mg. Can't say I noticed any real effects in my day to day life, even when taking high dosages. It did however give me very intense, vivid dreams (pretty much every night), so maybe it improved my sleep quality a bit. Definately not worth the £40 it retails for IMO. I would maybe give the 1200mg / 2400mg versions a shot just out of curiousity, but the prices really put me off. Hopefully the prices drop eventually and I'll give them a try.

All roads lead to Gorgie Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 Anyone else had stomach problems with the oil. I started with it and I did notice it helped me to relax and be less stressed. However, after a few days on it my tum was rumbling a bit but now it is making me feel quite sick. I spray it under my tongue so it isn't going near my stomach. I read it could be the carrier oil which is coconut in the one I purchased. It isn't a high dose either only 300MG. I did feel the benefits and would like to continue but feeling sick isn't worth it really. I would be grateful if anyone can recommend a CBD product that doesn't cause a feeling of nausea.

AndyNic Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 www.thedispensarycbd.com has been spot on for me and is a local guy that delivers next day or you can arrange same day pick up etc. The quality is excellent and a million times better than anything I've had from Amazon, Holland and Barrett and some local shops that sell stuff. The stuff tasted fine and there was no nausea at all. Are you sure it's the oil causing the nausea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked up the one I am trying in Boots and it says it comes from pesticide free plants so it sounded OK and it does certainly make me feel relaxed. I did some googling and a few people do get stomach problems with some of the CBD products, aspirin gives my problems as well so maybe it is just my stomach playing its usual annoying tricks. It is trial and error to find one that suits the person best I suppose. I won't give up and will try others including the one you suggest.

Is there any chance CBD could work? It really seems like last chance saloon for her before spending the rest of her life in pain (it's already been 2 years). Anyone?
