I have personally done no milling. But I have trimmed countless KG's of both wet and dry marihuana and the dry marihuana lets the trichomes or crystals fall off which is the main source of the thicker stickier resin. I just thought it can't gum up your machine as bad if the crystal doesn't fall off, though I suspect that the wet marihuana wouldn't even work in the machine at all due to it's fiborous qualities. Production over quality.
I take your point about your name on the bottle and the legallity, Magenta Thumb, but this is not penicillin, you only reinforce my point that you should stop ignoring, the fact that marihuana will never stay in your nice little labelled bottle. Sharing the "joint" might be holding the medical aspect of marihuana back, true. But to deny that this is the nature of the beast, is only self denial and burying your head in the sand. Let us face the realities of marihuana, not some pretend world where you don't pass the reefer, patient, bottle, or not.
You don't use marihuana because a label tells you to, your hilarious, the fact that it is prescribed by the day even, is akin to the stupidity that HC used when they effectively eliminated drinking it (juicing) and encouraged smoking. A monthly prescription (especially for women) is way more medically on the mark.
Some like the vaporizer better, but most like smoking better, the reason is simple, the "desired results" are quite different. I also recommend trying the vaporizer if you can afford a good one. Personally I prefer smoking, but like the vaporizer, when smell or smoke is an issue to others and when my gout acts up. Using a vaporizer to "moderate the harshness" is what you do when you get stuck with inferior marihuana, quality marihuana is never harsh.
Obviously, Magenta Thumb, your mother used the iodine treatment for your scrapes, and used buckleys for your cough, my mother used polysporin and Flinstones cough syrup. Why make it less desirable, you would have us take it through a needle if you thought it made it more acceptable to the medical community, I say screw them, the doctors will come around, not because they want to, but because we will continue to demand it? Some LP's are going to succumb to that pressure, in their sterile clinic like websites, trying in vain to impress Health Canada and people like Magenta thumb, (who doesn't actually use it), others will let the marihuana they grow speak for itself.
Milling marihuana takes my options, as a patient away from me, and could hide potentially inferior marihuana, all the while reducing the quality by not letting me remove the stem or crystal effectively. If you need a homogenous blend to get "better" test results, then mill away, but don't make me try to pick the stem out of my medicine after PPS mixes it all in together.
I use a grinder that has a keif screen, I call the keif "hippycrack" because it is so powerful against my pain. I choose when I will smoke the keif carefully to regulate the pain and the narcotic effect, milling would end my ability to regulate myself and deny me what really works the best. When you look at a bud, (if you ever have), there is different potentcies from the top of it to the bottom, I smoke, different parts for different results, saving the tip for higher dosage times of need. Understand, I don't smoke more, I smoke differently.
Milling is anti marihuana and Health Canada knows it, that is why they milled under the MMAR. I believe in the medicinal results I and many other people have gotten from marihuana, but I will not throw full legalization under the bus by reducing it's desirability, to appease some doctors with their head up their asses.
We need to keep marihuana as good and potent as possible, to make sure that every patient and soon consumer that tries it, get's "the desired effect". Don't take the good tasting cough syrup off the shelf just because it is medicine, soon to be legalized in the mainstream.
When I quit smoking cigarettes, I used nicorette gum and I could bite off the appropriate sized chunk for the intensity of the withdrawal, the patch was not adjustable. Marihuana has that adjustable ability and can also affect 5 different ailments(withdrawals), all or one at a time, but only if you get the raw materials to decide how to use them yourself. It is 5 drugs or more in one. The complexities of benefits that are lost in the milling process is criminal and against patient treatment.
Marihuana would not work for me if I only had one type or potency, milling effectively takes my ability to use a non addictive medicine away from me. I believe that pre rolled marihuana cigarettes (milling) will never be accepted by "real patients", they know. Pre rolled will be for the teenagers who don't know and can't roll and for going to the bar.
Keep trying to put cannabis in that lantern Magenta Thumb, I'll keep rubbing it, to let her out. Marihuana is that genie, that can give you the three wishes, and if your still high after four hours call your doctor and thank him.
