    'Prince of Pot' turns himself in while facing extradition

    Marc Emery – who will serve a five-year prison term in the U.S. for selling marijuana seeds – turned himself in to authorities in Vancouver. After flouting marijuana laws for decades, British Columbia's so-called prince of pot turned himself in to authorities Monday to face extradition to the...

    (Poll) How does cannabis affect your trips?

    My curiosity got aroused in the mushroom section when some of us started talking about smoking cannabis during the trip. When I'm tripping with people and a bowl goes around I always have to think twice about whether I want to do it or not. I find that cannabis does indeed actually greatly...

    LSD.. is it going the way of the dodo?

    I know it still exists, but I'm talking about on a cultural level--there seems to be neither supply nor demand, at least here anyway. What do you think? It's basically nonexistant, kids are taking speed or 'xtc' (still mostly speed) or newer synthetics, or RC's mistaken for lsd. If this trend...

    Extending the mushroom experience

    I know this has been touched on before, but usually in the context of taking MAOI's to prolong and intensify the experience. Without MAOI's.. how long into the trip can you munch more mushrooms (mmm) if for some reason you wish to lengthen your visit? I would imagine at some point it isn't...

    Hash oil=wow

    Just speaking from a recent first experience. And it's so easy to do.. you can buy isopropyl anywhere. What a perfect way to use up old grass. But definitely quite a different feeling than what I normally associate with cannabis.

    What do you think of 5-MEO-DMT?

    I've gone back through the dmt and the synth section and can't find much for recent references on it outside of erowid quotes. Anyone here tried it and how did you like it? (and which method did you use)

    How much mesc. goes into the water when you cook it?

    Just a question. Personally I have no problems stuffing the goop down, it's nowhere near as difficult as other herbs i've tried. But when you cook it as I understand it a certain amount of the alkaloids are abosrbed into the water. Would it be possible to cook it repeatedly and get pretty...

    This is really (not so) secretly an I heart cannabis thread. I've been using it on and off for 5 years.. As I sit here about to have a toke (and then do housework for the next few hours actually!) what do you use cannabis for, and what effects does it have for you? I started taking it...

    Thought I'd post this here. Fairly nice to the point ad. According to the site http://www.norml.org this is supposed to be on CNN, FOX and other networks and supposed to be played about 7700 times.. If anybody catches it let us know, I'm curious!

    ..Past or present? And by addiction, I don't mean something you enjoy doing, but something that is actually a hindrance/destructive force to your life. We have a thread about quitting weed, I know someone who quit recently after years of smoking all day everyday. At least it wasn't alcohol...

    low doses (1/2 tabs etc)-you find them useful?

    What does cannabis actually DO?

    There's been a few threads here lately where people are talking about their more intense and visual experiences with cannabis.

    music affecting the trip

Didn't even realize how strong they were until I stood...

    Trusting/Doubting your senses

    One of the things I have learned from using psychedelics, is the power of belief, expectation, and memory in shaping and filtering the information we get from our senses.

    The "bad trip"...

    Question for 2C-I users..

    Just curious what manner those who have tried it used to ingest it successfully.. I see some people ingest this stuff using gel caps. Can you do it without the gel caps? Like dissolve a bit in water and drink it, or hold it in your mouth? Either way I would think it would absorb into the...

    Amphetamines (Adderall, speed, etc) + Cannabis

    Do you find that amphetamines tend to "boost" the effects of cannabis? This has happened to me several times when I came across a bit.. did the amphetamines first then the cannabis a bit later to find (at least I think) it hit me harder and in a more psychedelic way.
