Today is the first anniversary of the establishment of Weedist.com, a really high-quality website that I’ve had the privilege of writing and editing for since last summer. From the usual fingers-crossed beginnings of any new site, they’re rapidly turning into a destination site for news and feature articles. Best of luck for the future, Weedists, […]

Old Hippie’s Rainbow Stash
This started out so simply. I spotted this cool colorful bunch of containers at The Dollar Tree and figured it was worth $1 to hold some of the miscellaneous strains I have around in small quantities. But then I got it home and thought…”Whoa…purple: Purple Kush!” Then I said “I have some Blue Dream around […]
Phenibut: A Novel Substance Against Stress, Anxiety, and Panic
A friend of mine told me about Phenibut, so I did some online research, and it sounded too good to be true. Phenibut combines tranquilizing effects, reduction of stress and anxiety, improvement of impaired sleep, and even anti-convulsant and anti-PTSD effects, while being legal in the U.S. and almost totally free from side effects. In short, […]
The Great Cannabis Oil Experiment
It’s one of those questions that’s been disputed for years in cannabis circles: what’s the best temperature to use? Whether the subject in question is decarboxylating, making firecrackers, cannabis oil, or glycerin tincture, everyone seems to have a different opinion. Well, I have lots of opinions myself, but I prefer facts. So I decided to […]
This Mysterious Package Arrived on 4/20
This cat doesn’t know it, but he might be sitting next to the most important advance in cannabis processing since the discovery of decarboxylation. Yes, I’m teasing you. But I’m teasing myself too, because it really did show up weeks ago, and it’s driven me nuts because I’ve been too busy writing (yes, that book […]
Why Our Grandparents Were So Happy…
Have you ever wondered why our great-grandparents all had such fond memories of their youth? Well…I’m surprised they remembered anything at all!!! Forget Tums and Tylenol. Forget Aleve and Benedryl. Look at the cool stuff they had back then! A bottle of Bayer’s ‘Heroin’ Between 1890 and 1910 heroin was sold as a “non-addictive substitute” for morphine. It […]
Highlights Of Our 4/20 Adventure
St. Murphy was certainly smiling down upon us yesterday. Everything that could go wrong, did go wrong…almost (hey, the car’s still running and we’re still alive…that’s the important stuff, right?) Felicity chose to minimize negativity in her recollections of our trip, which is definitely a personal step forward for her, but on the way home, […]
How to Make a Vaporizer to Bong Interface Adapter
So now that I’ve played around with my homemade bong for awhile, I’ve already grown tired of getting way too high and coughing on smoke and thought about how I could combine the benefits of a bong (cooler smoke and easier on the throat and lungs) with the benefits of a vaporizer (no smoke, just vapor…and […]
DIY Glass Bong, Part 4: How To Smoke With Your New Bong
How To Smoke Weed From A Pipe First, exhale before putting your mouth on the pipe. This makes room in your lungs, and insures you won’t blow out through the pipe by accident, which has been a source of embarrassment for new smokers for many decades. Put the flame over the weed in the bowl, […]
Make Your Own Glass Bong, Part 3: How To Do It
In the previous installment of How To Make Your Own Glass Bong, you picked out your liquor bottle and ordered the special diamond bit to cut the hole in it. Somewhere between then and now, you’ll have to empty that bottle, but I’ll leave that up to you 🙂 Right now, you have just a […]
