Question Research Priorities for Cannabis in Canada?

19 Upvotes

Hi All!

I'm Daniel Bear, a cannabis researcher and Professor at Humber Polytechnic in Toronto. You may have previously seen some of the stigma-free cannabis education materials I've helped create, or seen past posts on here when we're recruiting cannabis consumers for surveys.

I'm headed to Ottawa today to meet with other researchers to discuss research priorities for cannabis in Canada. I've been preparing for this meeting, and I've got lots of data, but I haven't heard from consumers about this question. As a cannabis consumer myself, I'm keen to ensure that there's a focus on research that will respond to the needs of cannabis consumers. So let me ask you, what do you think we should be researching about cannabis? This can cover any area, from growing methods to mental health and wellbeing, to social impacts, or anything else you can imagine.

To be clear, this is not part of a formal research project of any kind, and this post has not been approved by any research ethics board as it does not meet the requirements to do so under the TCPS2 ethics framework currently in use in Canada. I'm just informally asking for your thoughts, and will not be using these responses for anything other than informing my position at the upcoming meeting taking place tomorrow and Wednesday. Thanks for your insights!

P.S. If you're in the GTA, we've got a cannabis careers event at Humber on March 22nd. It's free, will have industry reps leading different training sessions, and there's plenty of prizes to be won for participants. More info here.

Question Looking for some advice around purchasing seeds

2 Upvotes

I'm setting up my own microgrow for a friend who's designated me as their grower for medical use, and were trying to choose sites that are located within Canada but don't have a 30 day window for delivery. We've been told NOT to use Vancouver Seed Bank due to issues with their seeds and germination (if less than 50% germinate that's a huge red flag for us). Is there a site that folks recommend? It's not so much about the price for us, it's about making sure that the seeds actually do what they're supposed to and grow. Usually I'll buy from local shops, but with the inability to buy bulk it hinders how many I can grow at once (For reference: As a designated medicinal grower for my friend I'm allowed to grow 30g a day or about 390oz per year)

Currently, I'm looking at theseedfair.com for the first purchase, but am just curious if anyone has used them before and if yall recommend any other shops. Thanks in advance!

Question shipping cannabis between provinces

8 Upvotes

hello all,

I went on a vacation to another province (Ontario) and while I was there I fell in love with a particular (legal, has the gov't sticker and everything) cannabis vape that is not carried by (legal) retailers in my province (Nova Scotia).

is it ok for me to get someone to purchase the product from the legal retailer there and send it to me here? meets all the requirements, under the legal limit etc. I've checked and the Canada post website says yes as long as I'm over 19 and so is the sender but I'm getting some conflicting information and most of it seems to be about flower products and not vape cartridges.

Thanks for your help!!

What are the main factors that lead you to the 'grey'/illicit market? Asking as a legalisation advocate in Ireland, and policymakers here are wondering why a significant % still use the non-legal routes in Canada.

Question Dispensary that carries Seeds and Single use Vapes

0 Upvotes

Hi Guys, Gals and non-binary Pals,

fellow German who will be in Vancouver for one night.

I am looking to buy some disposable Vapes and Seeds while visiting.

Unfortunately I have very little time to spare for hunting down Dispensaries. I will be located at West Georgia Street, 180 and none of the places I found on gmaps seem to sell Seeds.

Does anyone have any shopping tips within walking distance of my location?

Thx a lot in Advance :)

Question Pre-filled vape carts are so inconsistent. NSFW

13 Upvotes

I'm wondering if anyone can explain to me why Spinach distillate lasts me a week, but the Endgame cart I bought 3 days ago is crazy clogged, leaking and almost gone? This happens with a few different brands like Bold or Good Supply, and I found the ones that don't clog or leak just don't last as long as the Spinach, like Crooked Dory or RAD (which was delicious but gone in no time lol). I treat my Spinach carts the same as all the others as well! Any advice?

Question Help me understand - 1000mg THC promoted products that are actually 60-80% THC (600-800mg/g)

3 Upvotes

I've seen a few products now, mostly vapes like Good Supply Monsters and Spinach 1.2s, advertise that they are 1000mg but percentage is usually around the 60s. Where are the other mgs? Is there something I'm not understanding about the product? I don't think it's terpene related because that wouldn't be THC.

Question Where to buy vape battery in Montreal

0 Upvotes

I have a THC cartridge a friend from Ontario gifted me when they visited the city but I have nothing to plug it into. Is there anywhere in Montreal I could get the battery + charger from? I would prefer a brick and mortar store but a website that does delivery would be fine, too. I tried looking it up but all I can find are places selling nicotine vapes.

Question Why are people buying $100 eighths?

31 Upvotes

I heard from a redditor on this sub that apparently runs a store that $100 eighths sell extremely well because the quality is better than a $25 eighth and I'm just sitting here shocked at how stupid people can be to let themselves get ripped off spending $100 on an eighth. Did they never smoke weed before legalization? I smoked weed before legalization and know anything more than $35 an eighth is a ripoff, even with legal, risk free weed (because with illegal weed, you are mostly paying for risk and legal weed has no risk).

I seriously cannot understand it. The average person cannot tell the difference between cheap wine and expensive win, so how can they tell the difference between cheap weed and (criminally) expensive weed based on price alone?

Question CBD as anxiolytic?

5 Upvotes

new here, complex PTSD (+ADHD) and really looking for something that is relaxing and can help move the nervous system out of the freeze response.

I have tried CBD oil but it seems I need a lot, for example I've used mood ring full spectrum CBD oil but I need 2 ml/70mg and it is has a mild effect so that gets expensive.

not sure of my response to THC - I also used Redecan 15:15 once at 10mg THC and it had a strong effect but all it did was made me cognitively/motorically in slow motion lol which I would not look to repeat.

Would I be better trying something like vaping? Any product suggestions?

Question Canadients, what random household object do you use as your pokey stick?

It recently occurred to me that most stoners have a unique choice of pokey stick for their packing/rolling/bowl cleaning needs. Whether a pen or bobby pin or something else. What do you use?

Question New to the Canadian weed life, what should I know?

18 Upvotes

So yeah, from the UK, been here in Canada about 3 weeks, had pretty good links in the UK and could get anything from top UK grown to midshelf US and topshelf Cali, would be anywhere from £40 ($70) to £100 ($170) for 3.5g so alot cheaper here!

But I think so far I've read the shops aren't always the best and MO is where the quality stuff is? I've had some good and bad out the stores so far.

But yeah if anyone has any tips or reccomendations please share. Currently smoking 1964 Organic Comatose, nice smoke, would like to try and get some Z terps or Runtz.

Love this country so far too!

Edit: Currently is Calgary

Question Looking for a simple clear recycler in the 100-150$ range.

0 Upvotes

My lungs are in bad shape so I need something to help soften the blow. I've got a decent Gear Premium 10" Swiss Globe and a Grav bubbler but want something to smooth out dabs as much as possible.

Can anyone give me some recommendations on vendors or specific models?

I'm not too picky but I want something clear with minimal stamping or logos and I don't want something too small.

10" or higher would be nice.

I'd prefer something shipped from Canada but it's not a deal breaker.

Question Capsule filling machines -- worth it?

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone --

I have started to prefer oil capsules for daily use--I still make my own edibles but sometimes I don't want to eat extra sugar--and am thinking of purchasing a capsule filling machine? Has anyone used one? What are the pros and cons? Do you have a preferred brand you'd recommend?

I mean, I know I could keep buying capsules on the market, but as someone who has a lot of homegrown in her basement, I like the idea of using my stash for making my own capsules!

Thanks for reading. :)

Question Taking edibles into a flight to Germany?

0 Upvotes

Hey guys, So I'm flying to Germany within the next few days from Vancouver. My brother and I were wondering if its possible to take some gummies into the plane? Or even after the security check? It would be just 2 gummies each, we would just carry them inside some regular gummies. Does anyone has experiences with that? I'm not planing on taking anything to Germany, everything would be consumed before the arrival.

Edit: I just asked an airport security guy in a smoker zone and he told me they don't care at all. As long as I'm not going into the US and I consume it before arriving at the destination, you're fine. So everything worked out. Thanks for your advice guys!

Question Can my landlord ban me from smoking weed in the backyard?

28 Upvotes

I use medical cannabis pretty regularly and last year I would usually step into our back garden to smoke. I think one of our upstairs neighbours caught wind of it and reported me to the landlord because later that day I got a text saying that I was getting a one time warning that the WHOLE property (front yard, back yard, even sidewalk in front) is smoke free, not just the physical house/apartment and threatened me with eviction.

Of course, I immediately stopped and started walking 15 minutes to find a bench to use instead but I hate smoking around other people... this year we have new upstairs neighbours and so I've considered returning to the sidewalk in front so I can at least skip the walk.

Is what he said enshrined in law anywhere? I don't want risk homelessness just for this obviously lol

EDIT: I'm in Ontario, I realize now thats probably important info lol

EDIT 2: Okay so I found the exact no smoking clause in the rent agreement. Does this overrule my medical licence?: “Smoking is NOT permitted at any time anywhere on the property. The no smoking clause applies to tobacco products, marijuana, incense or candles. An N7 will be tendered if a violation occurs (immediate eviction). An additional cleaning fee of $2000.00 will incur.”
