@High_Times posted a new topic, subject "Help Wanted, experience necessary". It read:

   Hello All, I'm new and glad I found this place.  
    I'll cut to the chase…  
    I'm was shot 3 times in the back 7 years ago and as a result my spinal cord has serious damage to this day. Besides paralysis in my leg, I suffer from chronic pain every minute of the day. I have a intrathecal pump implant that puts morphine/actually Dilaudid directly in my spinal cord 24 hours a day.  
    I live in Texas where flower laws are still strict. I'm desperate to see if I can get any relief or better sleep with the flower. I'm 50 and all my hook ups for flowers have faded away in the last 35 years. I contacted local flower power groups to see if there's a way to try flower and see if relief is there before I move out of state and find a place next door to a dispensary. I had to retire after gun shots and I have full custody of my son that I home school. These circumstances would make it easy to move to a place that I can have a better quality of life.  
    First I need to see if there's relief.  
    So, after months of contemplation I decided to work through the strains and grow until I find the right combination. I prefer a short plant with forced bloom in order to find the right combination. If this helps even a little ill be grateful!  
    I set up hydro with the ability to grow 4 plants indoors for now. I'll add on if needed?  
    Could you guys please give me advise on next strain to choose?  
    I really just need the 1 plant to try medicinal benefit. This will eventually lead to a lot of surplus flowers and seeds. Minimum order is 5 seeds. I'm not in a position to go to jail for selling surplus. All I can do is find a way to store it for my golden years.  
    I've got flowering skunk on its way. Which takes me back.  
    I'm hoping to get advise on next strain.  
    I haven't smoked flowers in over 20 years.

Then @Dieselgrower said

    For the pain maybe try some edibles and smoking would help relax those areas I think. A few good strains for pain relief for me is Gorrilla glue, blueberry, thc bomb, strawberry diesel to name a few that have helped me along the way. I hope this helps brother

After which, @Flyr added

    @High_Times, Howdy amigo. I too live in Texas. I'm sure these folks can give you the advice you will need to help alleviate your pain or at least control it. I'm a little familiar with your intrathecal pump, I'm a Paramedic. There's a sleeve at the base of your spine where the catheter is anchored with a tad bit of slack. This persons cath was too short and pulled it from the anchor point. You got your hands full with your kido at the house. Hell, raising kids is tough enough without having to deal with constant back pain. How does one go about acquiring a medical MJ card in Colorado? Do you have to have an address of residence there? It would be great if you could sample their goodies and various strains one weekend. You will learn these great folks can give you a leg up on the various strains too. Welcome and good luck.

To which @High_Times replied

    Thanks Flyr, I'm assuming a doctor would have to diagnose you with qualified issue? Which understatement for me. The only way I could narrow strain down would be to get with someone with card to shop a dispensary.  
    On oral meds like oxy and morphine I would get terrible nausea. I tried marinol and it helped. In fact I put CQB oil under my tongue for nausea. If the THC can take the edge off at night and help with break through pain? It would improve my quality of life. It really sucks I've gotta break some laws to know!  
    To change the subject, roughly 35 years ago a friend shared a pin joint with me of Mauwii wowii (spelled wrong) with me. 2 puffs was all I took of the sweetest tasting, best smelling, cleanest high, I've ever experienced! Could it still be the same 35 years later? Does anyone have growth experience? I'm new growing at the level I'm doing now.

So @Flyr replied

    @High_Times. Yeah, Oxy and Morphine makes a lot of folks sick. It's the sudden pow it can give ya that nauseates a lot of people. When you took Marinol did you have any weird side affects? I bet Maui Wowi is still out there.

@High_Times replied

    Thanks Diesel, I'll look your suggestion up. At 10-12 weeks a harvest, your input helps a lot…

After which, @Myfriendis410 added

    I'm assuming you're thinking about starting with auto flower and it's attractive but suggest you go with photo period plants.
    
    I've been using Gold Leaf and White Widow gives me relief. Part of that is dependent on the point of harvest.

To which @OldSkunk replied

    @High_Times welcome fellow Texan. I'm in the same boat you are. I have constant agonizing pain in my lower spine. I hate it that you have to have opiates pumped into you. My work made me go to pain management doctors (pill pushing quacks). They had me hopelessly addicted to opiates. I was taking 40mg every 4 hours. I knew it would kill me sooner or later. Last year I decided that I don't care if the idiot NEO-CONs (pot haters) running things want to arrest me or not, I'm going to find a better way to treat my pain. I have so far grown 8 different stains of regular feminized plants and auto flowers. I would say the strains you would probably like are Amnesia Haze or Northern Lights.

After which, @High_Times added

    Lay time I grew was 30 years ago. Then I grew outside and added fish emulsion. Do I just need to adjust lighting schedule for regular Fem? The reason I was going for auto bloom was speed and ease. I'm not sure how many strains before I find relief?

@High_Times replied

    Thanks skgrower. I decided to plant after contacting several legalize pot groups and organizations here in Texas explaining my situation. All that got me was donation requests and emails advertising CBD! If I can find enough relief to dial back the pain meds? Then I'll have the disision of taking a chance growing in Texas, or move to legalized state. I have full custody of my son, which makes standing my ground in Texas a risk for him and I.

Then @elheffe702 said

    I'm always late to the party. For pain, I mainly look for strains high in b-myrcene, b-caryophelene, and CBG, at the dispensary. Hard to know what Terpene profile you'll end up with growing your own. All that said, I like Blueberry, Kosher Kush, and most strains in the OG Kush lineage. You can also search by symptom on a lot of the strain database sites like leafly, allbud, etc. Hope this helps! Keep up the awesome. Being a dad is my favorite job.

Then @Myfriendis410 said

    It's pretty common to see new growers gravitate to the auto flower but they are surprisingly finicky. You can do everything with a photo period including faster turnaround if you desire.

To which @timmyv324 replied

    Take a vacation to a recreational state and try some out. Try edibles they r good for muscle relaxers. A good edible will make you sleep like a baby. I honestly think it's gonna b trial and error everyone is gonna different

After which, @garrigan62 added

    @High_Times
    
    First I would like to welcome you to ILGM.
    
    I'm SORRY FOR WHAT HAS HAPPEND TO YOU MY FRIEND AND i HAVE SOME INFO. THAT MAY VERY WELL HELP YOU IN YOUR QUEST. sorry ABOUT THE CAPS…LOL  
    HERE IS WHAT I HAVE.
    
    Strains For Wounds, Muscle, and Back
    
    Cramps, spasms, pulled tendons, and slipped disks in your back are types of musculoskeletal injuries. Marijuana eases muscle, joint, and injury-related pain. There are many strains that can help ease the inflammatory pain associated with musculoskeletal issues.
    
    We also encourage you to give cannabis topicals a try. A topical is an infused cream, lotion, or salve that you apply directly to the skin. The activated compounds in this marijuana cream will relieve pain, inflammation, and muscle tightness in a localized area.
    
    Afghan Kush
    
    If you're looking for a powerful general pain reliever, Afghan Kush just might be the strain for you. Nearly 100% indica, this strain is native to the Kush Mountain Region in the Middle East. Featuring a strong, pungent aroma, even the vapor of this flower will keep you locked on the couch.
    
    Because this strain is a potent indica, the effects will be felt mostly in the body. In fact, this is what makes it so great for those seeking pain-relief. Not only is this little lady loaded with pain-fighting THC, but it's also  
    chock full  
    of analgesic and anti-inflammatory terpenes. Particularly terpenes Humulene and Caryophyllene.
    
    Their names may be hard to pronounce, but these potent flavors are the culprits behind the pungent and spicy hop aroma of Afghan Kush.
    
    Caryophyllene has also shown anti-cancer effects. This may make strains like Afghan Kush a good choice for patients hoping to manage cancer pain. Other strains high in caryophyllene include Hash Plant, Maui Waui, and Super Sour Diesel.
    
    White Widow
    
    A true White Widow is a 50/50 cross between a pure sativa and a pure indica. The result is an extremely well-balanced and potent hybrid. Inheriting the best from both sides, this strain creates an uplifting and euphoric buzz while still easing away pain.
    
    Unlike Afghan Kush we've featured so far, White Widow's powerful unique high comes from several calming aroma molecules. Specifically, Linalool. Linalool is the terpene that gives lavender it's famous therapeutic scent. It also happens to be a powerful  
    pain reliever and anti-inflammatory.
    
    But, we won't just let the science speak for itself. Here's what people had to say about it on Leafly, the World's Largest Strain Finder:
    
    “This is definitely as the other reviews have said. A very gentle but euphoric high. I am really looking for pain relief and it does work pretty well for me on that score. It is very relaxing. I find it a bit hard to think logically when using it so I would likely keep this for special times where I want to be awake and happy but nothing important needs to happen. It does give me terrible dry mouth”
    
    “Incredible. If you want to get high, fight pain, or take a nap it's the perfect strain. Definitely a perfect hybrid mix. Dense nugs. One I'm keeping in my medical rotation.”
    
    “Definite Class A strain. Bright green, orange bristles are distinct. Euphoria and Energy are the main affects I experienced. I have a migraine disorder and this weed is perfect for relieving pain and getting your spirits up.”
    
    Additional Strains for Wounds Muscle and Back Pain:
    
    Juicy Fruit  
    Platinum OG  
    Green Crack  
    Blue Dream
    
    Additional Strains That May Help  
    Jack Herer
    
    Named for the famous activist and author, Jack Herer is a sativa-dominant hybrid truly deserving of the title. A favorite seemingly all around the world, this happy flower has uplifting and energizing effects. While indicas are typically the weed species of choice for chronic pain, this strain has a few pain-fighting tricks up its sleeve.
    
    A well-grown Jack H. is full of natural painkillers. THC is just one of the analgesics in this strain. The others? You guessed it. Terpenoid nutrients.
    
    One of the primary terpenes in Jack Herer is Pinine. Pinine is responsible for this strain's woody, Pine-Sol taste. In  
    recent studies  
    , pinene has been proven to have antitumor effects. In fact, a  
    2013 study  
    showed that pinine was effective in preventing cancer cell proliferation in the brain.
    
    When grown hydroponically, this strain has shown soaring levels of other neuroprotective terpenes as well. These flavor compounds help reduce stress and tissue inflammation. When you smoke or eat some Jack Herer, you're consuming these medicinal terpenes along with it. These powerful nutrients help keep your brain healthy and ease pain.
    
    Neuropathic Pain:
    
    The strains listed above are only a few of the marijuana types that may relieve nerve pain. Make sure to take a look at these as well:
    
    Blueberry  
    Obama Kush  
    Sour Grape  
    Lemon Thai  
    One-to-One  
    Sour Haze
    
    Strains That Will Help You Sleep
    
    Whether it's from a bad headache or a muscle cramp, sleeping through the night can be nearly impossible when you're in pain. Here are a few heavy indicas that are sure to knock you out:
    
    Granddaddy Purple  
    Hindu Kush  
    LA Confidential  
    Critical Mass  
    Bubba Kush

    @High_Times
    
    Let's take a look at the top 3 strains of weed for pain.
    
      1. 
    [code]    ACDC
        
    [/code]
    
    
    
    
    If doctors have to choose one strain that is the most effective at helping a patient with pain, it is definitely ACDC. This strain has high amounts of both THC and CBD. A hybrid, this strain will provide the user with:  
    Relaxation  
    Intense focus  
    Slight energy increase  
    Slight your euphoric feeling  
    Happiness
    
    You won't become a couch potato after taking this strain, but you also won't have the immense uplifting effect of a sativa-dominant strain either.
    
      2. 
    [code]    Blackberry Kush
        
    [/code]
    
    
    
    
    Anyone that is having severe pain should seek a strain of marijuana that is high in THC. Sometimes, you want to take your mind off of the pain and simply numb the body. This is exactly what Blackberry Kush provides to you.
    
    You'll feel:  
    Lazy and relaxed  
    A euphoric high  
    Sleepy  
    Happy  
    Creative
    
    You definitely don't want to take Blackberry Kush if you have to go to work or school, but you do want to take it if you have severe pain.
    
      3. 
    [code]    Harlequin
        
    [/code]
    
    
    
    
    Harlequin is the ideal strain of marijuana if you have an injury or disease that causes inflammation. A good example of this is arthritis. What makes this strain so special is that as a high CBD content.
    
    You'll notice an immediate euphoric a feeling, while also being focused and uplifted.
    
    Euphoria will come over you, and you'll have a clear mind that allows you to stay focused. I would recommend this strain of marijuana for anyone who has school, work or needs to stay focused for any reason.

    Will

Then @High_Times said

    Thanks! Great info. Where can I find the  
    AC/DC strain?  
    Very welcome information @garrigan62

So @123gone replied

    @High_Times I broke my back racing motocross in '95 and again in '08 and was on every opiate known to man! I'm talking 180-30mg Oxicodone, 60-60mg oxycontin, 150microgram fentanyl pain patches and a plethora of other meds for muscle spasms, etc… per month and I have literally tried over 100 different strains that proclaim to relieve pain and anxiety associated with being in constant pain and hands down, no comparison THC Bomb is by far the strain that delivers. If you grow it, I suggest that you wait till the trichomes are mostly opaque with a strong presence of amber color mixed throughout the trichomes. Too clear, it's not only a little too speedy or ‘racey' but the overall medicinal effects won't be there hardly if at all, but the opaque to moderate amber trichomes give it more of the narcotic effect and fair warning, too much and you won't get a whole hell of a lot done. Don't get me wrong, in moderation it can relieve pain while delivering that at peace euphoric feeling with a little pep in your step. As mentioned previously, edibles would be the best way to go for you and your needs. I am very new to hydro growing but I have been growing for over 15 yrs and still do oil for cornbread and brownies, topical ointment, bubbler hash out in the outside washing machine, a tumbler for collecting keif for pressed hash and blast out 2-3 ounces of shatter EVERY grow and not to toot my own horn but I've been very successful from flower to concentrates and would be more than happy to be of any assistance that I can be to help in relieving some of your ailments. I KNOW how you feel, and the frustrations and demise of a quality life when your back is against the wall and opiates are smearing you to that wall.  
    Again, not to toot my own horn, but here is what I'm doing with buds… and it's easier than a lot of forums and so called professional growers proclaim it to be. However, though I'm very new to this site and it's much different than most forums ive been a part of in that from my short experience, there are a lot of high level growers who are very forth coming with tanglable info.  
    Anything I can do for you, just let me know. Hope you find some relief.!

    I agree thc bomb is a very good narcotic strain if you let her finish later when she ambers fairly well. If you over indulge you will not get anything productive done

So @BIGE replied

    nice set-up and equipment/tools @Dkr8180  
    i'm ready to expand my extraction processes too…

So @High_Times replied

    Thanks garrigan65 for the lists and advisement. I've only bought strains from I❤GM.4 so far, 4 more strains in a week.i bought a few I enjoyed in 70s & 80s .like skunk and Maui wow. I'm targeting my disability with the last 6. I've picked all but one I need help with. I stopped smoking, growing and selling in 1985. I got busted by state drug task force with 5 pounds plus marijuans, 2 plus ounces of coke, and almost 2 pounds of the stinky pink meth, guns, cash, etc… The usual drug house for a 17 yrsr old in the early 80's. I havent messed with any of the stuff since.  
    So now I've time traveled 33 years into the future of marijuana horticulture and I'm lost? I'm a smart guy (at least since I was 17). I can read, ask you guys, and build myself medication a pharmacy in texas cant provide.  
    It seems like everybody has suggested a different strain. Your help is more valuable than all the books and fancy grow systems out there!  
    Can you please suggest strains from the store sponsoring this board? It's all I know in this future world of growing flower.  
    I hurt so bad at night I spit out my mouth piece and have cracked almost all my teeth. The pain caused by one leg spade wakes me for hours. I can't get up stairs or even a step with my cane. It's impossible to get to the back of Wal-Mart to get milk. I have a nrurostimulator timplant hat shocks the shit out of me when I walk into stored with into theft brianholland@example.com. Like Target and Wal-Mart. So I walk from car, then get the shit shocked out of me, then it's time to shop and get shocked again!  
    I've seen doctors in two syared, many doctors and many surgeries. I'm with the best pain management doctor in my state. The other doctors say it is what it is and try to keep me comfortable.  
    My doctor says same, but is at the forefront of gene therapy. And pain meds from sea snails. Insurance won't pay for either. At least the rich feel better!  
    So here I am… in a position that leads me back to mother nature. I'm curing myself! If I have to grow a ton of flowers! My only question is… what do I do with the kilos of flowers that don't work? I have full custody of my son and will not sell dope. Can I store it until I move to state it's legal? Sell to dispensary? That's later.  
    Please suggest strains from I❤GM. They're helpful and stand behind product. I've looked.most are expensive without the help and guarantee.  
    Thanks everyone for you input! This in a Kick Ass Board!

    Where do i find Bomb seeds from someone reputable. ACDC too.

So @Dieselgrower replied

    I can't and won't say where because of the rules om this site, but a simple search or reputable ones will land you with a good place to start.

So @High_Times replied

    Anyone have input on cO2? I've been seeing it mentioned in some of my teading.

To which @High_Times replied

    Here's another. I'm only growing for personal. Got started today… Any info on long term storage of final product? I'd like to go back to certain strains without planting. I'm working on spinal cord damage, Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy R.S.D, and nerve and muscle atrophy. Who said Timothy Leary was dead? LOL That will show my age…

To which @Macadon replied

    You can order humidity packs. To put in the jars after they are done curing.

To which @Rugar89 replied

    You wont need to produce any extra c02.
    
    You can vacuum seal them and then store in a cool dark place.

So @blackthumbbetty replied

    You want a high cbd indica strain for that pain.

To which @High_Times replied

    Thanks for input. I'm in a position to break law, move to another state, or suffer because can't catch a !@#$ing catch a plant on fire to check effectiveness! I've taken pill form and got dent relief from nausea combined with existing meds.
    
    Can you say? Tolerance after 8 years of same shit different pharma company. I tried politicians, public and private groups for legal trials.
    
    I got nothing but requests for a contribution.
    
    Tell me guys… what's more dangerous?
    
    Being pumped full of dilaudid 24/7 mixed with a muscle relaxer (baclofen) through an implanted intrathecal pump. Let's add Xanax, Ambien, dilaudid inpill form for rescue, a seizure med when I've never had one (Neurontin), I'm not depressed but Cybalta 120mg for nerve pain, and two more pills no better.
    
    This is the medical cocktail big pharma has reached for to get me through a day as a single father that is has or is raised 4 children alone.
    
    Yet, I'd be jailed if I tried what my friends in the state next to me use legally for carpal tunnel!
    
    I'm ready to get my lawyers to follow me through the miscarriage of justice a basic human need to stop hurting enough to raise my kids and die with the pain relief God put on this earth in it's natural ability to be a weed?
    
    I feel like burning some shit to the ground! And I don't mean that weed.
    
    Any ideas that wouldn't land my kids in foster homes?
    
    Apologize for any typos, !@#$a proof read. You get my point?

    WOW! I had to vent.  
    Much better now…NOT…

After which, @High_Times added

    Black… I'm on my second bottle of Jade Ultra CBD oil that costs more than Coca. You'd think insurance would cover it more than the Poppy cocktail I'm taking that costs me $3.26 a month.

So @High_Times replied

    Thanks dkr. I'm trying to line some seeds up. Not too many places where I'm at to get stuff without risk of prosecution. I've been out raising family. I don't have any idea of where to source it? I've got kids that depend on me only. Thanks again.

Then @123gone said

    @High_Times I feel your pain, literally. Sounds best to make the sacrifices necessary to go on to greener pastures and get somewhere it's legal. I'm in Hawaii now and it's pretty lax here now but I've been thinking about heading up to northern California for a while and gradually get up farther northwest. Necessity has always been my motivator.

So @High_Times replied

    Dkr… Lots of good suggestions . I have a friend that moved there in the 80's for drug rehab and never looked back. I home school my kiddos ,so I could move anywhere with internet. Lately, I've been looking for a sign. Too many memories here…  
    All I want now is to see if, and how much relief I get?  
    Then I can consider kids moving away from friends and family.  
    They had enough bull shit during my 3 year divorce and fight for custody.

So @123gone replied

    @High_Times it sounds like you've been through it! Yeah I definitely think you need to get out of where you're at… The last thing you need is issues with kids, legal and such.

After which, @Sirsmokes added

    I'm in a completely illegal state, (not sure of your location) but I get everything shupped to my door via ilgm and amazon have for over a year now. Everything comes in stealth packagING

After which, @FloridaSon added

    I think they have added AC/DC to the seed bank here. You can also now find Maui Wowie there too.
    
    The CO2 is meant to boost plant growth. You could take the time to set up a CO2 generator, but spending an hour a day in the room with them will be enough to help them with your respiration alone.
