I've had half-a-mind to try vaping cbd for some time. It does seem like it could be really beneficial for me, but i've been a bit wary of dipping a toe in that water. From what I've read on here, it's very different from vaping nicotine, and you could just be vaporising money if you don't do it right.
Excuse me starting my own thread. I couldn't find the answers to all my questions in the other threads here,
I suppose I should say a bit about me, and what I hope CBD will do for me
For a starter, I'm sensitive to PG. It sets off my asthma, so i usually vape PG-free juice. Now, I've read about the difficuties with dissolving CBD in VG, but there are some 100VG cbd juices on the market anyway (hmm, maybe should add them to that PG -free juice thread of mine?)....at a price! Meh. I' decided to compromise for the sake of experimentation, and picked up some special offer 3X vape juice from CBD mods, because they were recommended by apes. It's 30%PG , IIRC. I'm thinking that I might dilute it with VG (+distilled water?) , if i the PG gives me problems? Would that be OK?
I'm also thinking I might just drip a bit into food and take it that way instead . No reason why not, is there?
In any case , i don't think it would be wise of me to vape PG continually, even at low concentration. This is just to get me started, and help me fiind out if this is really gonna work for me,
I'm normally an MTL vaper. Not sure if that works wih cbd?
I gather that cbd has to be raised to a certain , comparatively high temperature (which specific temperature escapes my mind ATM) in order to get all the beneficial stuff vapourised. If you vape it at a lower temp , you might as well vape 0mg. I further gather that you therefore need TC kit. Now, I've got an Aspire Odyssey mini kit that i think will do? It includes the Triton Mini tank and a 0.15 ohm Ni200 coil. A pretty modest mod, but good enough to support that set-up, I should think, given they were sold as a set.
I haven't used it yet, I pretty much bought it with cbd in mind. So don't you dare go tell me it's no good for cbd,or I'll, i'll, Ill...cry. Then go buy summat else.
I do know that cbd concentrations are stated as mg/bottle, not mg/ml, so the less-than-wary get less than they think. Chiz!
I don't know what sort ort of dosage I should give myself to start with ? And if that would change (and by what factor?) if i ijust gave up on this faff and ingested it instead.
I also don't know, come to think, how the heck we're supposed to give ourselves a measured dosage if we're vaping it?
As for my reasons for using it: I have an incurable, progressive metabolic disorder which results in some increasingly severe neurological symptoms (including seizures) , neuropathic pain, and and various painful muscular problems, to mention but a few of the symptoms. It all sounds like stuff that might repond well to cbd. I'm presently on no medication at all, not even painkillers, having had allergic reactions or else really nasty side-effects with just about everything available on the NHS, or OTC.. It would be great to find something that makes me feel better rather than worse!
Thanks for listening, Apes
