Mel's Reviews
Jack Green Oils
So, like, when you're investigating or reading up on new Cannabis strains, right?
What are you specifically looking for in a strain?
This may seem like an odd question, but it's truly something that fascinates me, especially after what we learned while visiting a few dispensaries in the US a couple years back...
Now not to back up too far, At the time of visiting those dispensaries in the States, back home in SA I was so new to Pot, that we always got "white widow" from the dude behind the garage. He never had any other strains funnily enough? Come to think of it.... The high was never the same....?!
Dudes... I just had an embarrassing brain fart... We *didnt* actually smoke WW for a year 🤣🤣🤣
But that sets my next point up perfectly...
When a grower has taken time, effort, expense... You know... Blood sweat and tears... (tears are usually when they hermie...) you not only can SEE it in the resulting bud, but you can also smell and taste it!!
Why is this important?
Because the better the bud, the better the medicinal effects (and yes of course the overall experience and high too 😁)
Now to get back to what we learned back then about dagga, came about in Vegas at the first dispensary we stopped at!
How many wonderful strains to choose from? The flavors... The tastes.. Omg the highs??!!
SA doesn't allow the sale of Bud (yet), But what we ARE allowed to do is sell CBD oils!!
One might ask: "What fun is that??! Honestly the high from the thc is the best part!!?..... What's WRONG WITH YOU Mel?!??"
Couldnt agree more.... Nothings wrong! I still LURVE me my thc... However....
That lesson I eluded to from Vegas...?
The BudTender (yes... They actually called that!!) asked what we wanted... Heard our accents... Asked the usual " do you have a pet elephant " question and proceeded to give us a Cannabis Crash Course!!
(she covered what terpines are... And why it's important to know what your strain has in it if you're using Pot medicinally!)
See, she had simply asked us... How can I help (expecting the usual Vegas client reply of.. I wanna get fuktup!!) I however was feeling like I had to prove my 'need' for pot as being medicinal...*NERD ALERT*
"I just need something to give me an appetite..."
She showed me a sample bag, pointed to the label and said.... You are looking for strains high in limonene then. At least 7mg....
That's easy enough?
I smiled.
She smiled.
The Hub smiled (he was actually smiling because he saw the variety of Blunts available 😂 hys hier om te speel!! 🤣)
Like clockwork... Every time I had even just a pipe hit, I could hit the Vegas buffets!
Sold on Terpines, understanding Cannabis a little more!! I'm now a self proclaimed Cannapert ? Canna-genius?!
Coming back to SA and being absolutely convinced that Cannabis is what I am dedicating my life to....
The Universe heard and moved a few pathways to make it for me to meet Jack.
Who??
Ah, Jack!!
So, I call him my herbologist, but he's formally known as Jack Green Oils 😁
You think reading about my medicinal plights are long winded and never ending... Try being the one who made a promise to himself that he will get me fed??!! 🤣
I shared my long winded medical story and my newly gained canna-knowledge with Jack... Which obviously he already knew, but what he did need was 'how much limonene and how can we get it in'.
I have had doctors scratch their heads at the oddness me and my ailments bring to the party. .. And their attempts have all failed! Well... They either made it worse or made no difference at all?
When Jack said he would like to take me on as a patient, I immediately agreed.
He was VERY clear with me, that we're gonna have to play around with various forms of the bud.... May take time... But if you work with me, I'll work with you.
And work with me he did!
Not even the MD Doctors have offered that type of patient care?!
Googling relevant symptoms together, sure, but that's where it always ends... "ah our time is up, good session!"
Friends.. The Hub is used to early morning voice notes and late night whatsapps from this guy he has never met to his wife ... And he smiles at it!
Interesting marriage Mel?!
No no... Not a touchy Feely friendship, but one where he took his commitment to me seriously.
Quite recently in fact, I went through a particularly hard patch and even with the pot I just couldn't get food in. Not even water!
Aside from my close circle, Jack too was worried sick!
The following week he sent me 'a little something to try, maybe it will help... Wedding Cake cbd oil'?
In our incredibly long journey, we found the strain Wedding Cake to be personally most effective to bring on appetite, and it is exceptionally high in limonene.
So... I dunno how?! But he has somehow developed a CBD OIL of the Wedding Cake Strain, which offers all the terpines (tastes, aromas and medicinal benefits) of the bare strain but without the high that comes with the bare bud?!
7 drops
SEVEN BLARRY DROPS of this Strain specific oil in the morning and I eat the whole BLARRY day!!!!
*note from the learned.... Coffee stunts the munchies 👍 you're welcome 👌)
So now I can plan lunch with my DAD and not have to pretend I'm not high and trying to converse ! (such embarrassing high school flashbacks when being absolutely smashed and trying to convince my folks I was sober... Totally didn't get away with it... As I found out as an adult 😂)
The alternative, just push my salad around the plate and take a doggy bag anyway!
Back to those SEVEN Drops that have revolutionized my life!
"Really Mel?! Diagnosis and treatment plan et AL"
No?
As many Medical Ma*****na patients can attest to... Part of the reason they "resorted" to Pot was because western meds failed them, or made their symptoms worse... So... If the diagnosis was solid, the treatment should work, yes?
Also no, because our bodies are just so much more complicated than that, and now that cannabis is getting some money to research a little more... The results have been ASTOUNDING!
And what Jack Green Oils have tapped into, is a way to experience MULTIPLE different strains without the high.... So daytime functioning!!
Much like a wine tasting where they expect you to spit out the wine when trying a variety, so you don't get smashed?!
(does anyone actually do that?!? 🤣)
Here we have oils where the taste of the strain itself is obvious (and you don't need to spit 😂)
Who would benefit from these according to me?
* People like me who rely on Cannabis / Pot / Dagga to function daily, but don't necessarily wanna be permanently high?
(or can't be)
* Pot Connoisseurs wanting to really appreciate the full body the strain has to offer before moving on to sourcing seeds and growing your own WITH thc
*Canna-Enthusiasts who would prefer not to use thc at this stage but know medicating will bring so much health, but also don't want to miss out on so many beautiful strains!
Jack Green Oils range and variety of products are super extensive, and if he doesn't stock it, he will source it!
Taking what I learned and sharing it with someone knowledgeable who cares, has brought a different longevity to my life!
Turns out... Not always ideal to stick to that whole, "what happens in Vegas" thing!
From a personal stand point, I truly recommend reaching out and having a chat with him...
And while you do that I gonna have a few drops of Durban Poison CBD oil, because Yummy was of ingesting some Cannabinoids!
Thank you Jack.
Thank you for finding a way to feed me!
Jack Green Oils - You come highly recommended by myself!!
