    Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome, questions

    Ugh you do not use azamax in your cooking. JFC. You really should pay attention before crossing a busy street with your mouth full of poison. Azamax is NOT just a fancy neem oil preparation. It is a highly concentrated product and is not safe for ingestion.

    Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome, questions

    I haven't seen a gender bias but 20 people isn't really a fair sample size. And maybe we should start asking more specific questions over what type of cannabis products these people are using. With additional people self reporting that they are home Growers and don't use azamax or any other...

    Who's Got The Fostiest Buds? Let's See How Frosty A Bud Can Really Get?

    This cut of Blue Dream smells so amazing that I broke my promise not to jump on the Blue Dream bandwagon. I was able to barter a couple clones and fortunately reproduce the same aroma as the guy I got the cuts from. If I pop off too many fan leaves to expose under canopy and I don't adjust the...

    And just to be clear I'm not some anti cannabis, Richard Nixon holdover, flag-waving, lock them all up conservative asshole. I'm in medical grower, and middle of the night can't sleep smoker. And I love my blue dream and cookies kush. the first two pic are of my Cookies kush, and the last is...

    Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome, questions

    I'm sure the vast majority of heavy users do just fine. However 100% of our cyclical vomiting patients are heavy cannabis users. 100%. That's the one common denominator among all of them. Well that and a refusal to believe that anything associated with cannabis could be causing their symptoms. I...

    Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome, questions

    I'll start asking these people about concentrate usage. Thank you for adding your voice to this conversation. Helps some people keep an open mind. It definitely has some relation to cannabis use. We probably have 12 or 15 chronic and frequent users of the emergency room for cannabinoid...

    russet mites

    Get on it right away. You should be scoping your plants routinely even when there's no visible problems. If it is russet mites, and you're in flower, you're phuked. Predator mites will help there most when infestations are caught early.

    Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome, questions

    What makes me most skeptical that CHS is caused by the cannabis itself is the apparent transient, randomly timed nature of the attacks, despite continued daily use of cannabis by sufferers. People can go weeks or months between attacks that lead them into the ER. Maybe it could even be a...

    Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome, questions

    The reason I don't buy this is because hashish has been around awhile. But it's in the realm of possibilities.

    Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome, questions

    That's my suspicion. That it is something else in the bud that's both new (not on the market before 2000), not on a black list, and not used by all commercial growers.

    Yes sir I did. I appreciate the input.

    Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome, questions

    Azamax is far far more concentrated form than what's in simple neem oil. To suggest that something that's 500x more concentrated than what's normally encountered couldn't possibly cause an issue is limp thinking. But hey thanks for keeping an open mind, and then letting it spill on the floor.

    Terrible russet mites, and an interesting observation

    Thanks. Was interesting enough to read up on it. Grand Evo on it's website talks about keeping populations low. Fuck that. How about keeping populations at 0. Although, that said, looks like could be super useful as a safe part of an integrated pest management system.

    Terrible russet mites, and an interesting observation

    How do you know a singular case of nausea and vomiting is CHS? By it's very nature a singular case is not CHS. I don't think the majority of people have a sensitivity to Azadirachtin, thus we aren't seeing hundreds of cases in my ER. Thank God. Your information on mixing Avid with a...

    Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome, questions

    Azamax is a significantly concentrated form of neem. The levels of Azadirachtin in neem are tiny compared to straight Azamax. Not everyone is sensitive to it is my feeling.

    Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome, questions

    So have some questions, based on observations. Those observations being that since about 2011 have had multiple patients in the ER with Hyperemesis not related to chemo, nor liver/pancreas/gallbladder issues, nor pregnancy. All were chronic daily users of cannabis. They all bought from different...

    Terrible russet mites, and an interesting observation

    The azamax alone didn't do squat. That's with a couple applications in a week. Avid and Forbid did the job quickly. Might be that avid alone would work, but after doing the organic stuff, then up the chem warfare ladder, I was done tip toeing around the problem. On a side note, might not be...

    Terrible russet mites, and an interesting observation

    Avid and Forbid 4f were the ticket. Nothing else was slowing them down. I used it to try and save some small blueberry clones. The operation was a success, but I killed the patient. Burned them from using the recommended strength. I threw out the tent, was used to begin with and well beat up...

    Terrible russet mites, and an interesting observation

    It's a 100 sq ft room. With the door closed, and the rest of the house open (2500 sq ft) I'm not too concerned. I'm more worried about lingering in the room which I don't plan on. 30 seconds to walk in and shut off the burner. It takes hours to kill people in an RV using those same heaters, and...

    Terrible russet mites, and an interesting observation

    I think the answer lies within the question. They go dormant I believe under 10 C. I can't find they paper I read that gave the exact temps. So keeping the contaminated room warm should force maturation. But screw that, I'm cooking the room with a propane heater to run the temps up to 120 F. I...
