Psoriasis/Juicing-please help me

Hello to all!
I am new here, in hopes to find some information on juicing as I haven't been able to find any solid information on the internet. I have heard and read that juicing raw cannabis can do wonderful things for many conditions/diseases such as Psoriasis. I have moderate Psoriasis (chronic autoimmune disorder/disease). I am not a medical marijuana patient nor do I think I will ever qualify to treat psoriasis.

I live in Alberta, Canada, where last summer I threw some bag seed in the ground for shits and gigs, and sure enough it grew. Nice and bushy too. Of course this was not smoking quality as I was not really taking care of them as my intentions were not to smoke the product, rather just growing them for fun. After lots of thinking and lots of reading on the internet I have come up with some questions:

-When juicing, do you juice both bud and leaves?
-Could I use the leaves off of my "backyard" plants, or does it have to be from a plant that was grown to be potent?
-Does it matter if the plant is male or female?
-Because the backyard plants do not produce quality bud (due to climate, lack of sunlight hours), if any bud at all, could I use this bud? or does the bud have to be caked in THC?
-If I cannot use that bud, could I use bud from my personal smoking bag and add that to my backyard leaves? Or would that not be safe because I wouldn't know what was used on them while growing?
-If I can use the leaves and bag bud/backyard bud, could I vacuum freeze these for the winter months? Or would that ruin its nutritional content?
-How much should I be juicing on a daily basis?

The only way I can really go through with juicing is if the conditions described above are suitable, as I do not have the space or time due to my career to properly grow potent stuff.

Thank you very very much for your replies and help in advance!

If what I have kind of come up with above is not a realistic way to treat myself, could you guys please suggest some other ways to treat myself in an affordable manner, that will provide me with the anti-inflammatory and immune strengthening benefits! thank you!!

I'm not very familiar with your condition or the use of cannabis to treat it. However, I can take a shot in the dark in hopes of shedding some light on the subject.

Most likely, you will benefit from sugar leaf and flower. Even if not super potent, or a great looking flower. Your plants will produce resin , THCA, CBD, which have anti-inflammatory properties.

You can make extract rather then juicing.

Now I would do a bit of research if you would benefit more from THCA or psychoactive THC.
I'm assuming you wish to ingest rather then smoke.

Here is what I would personally do, this is not advice, just my .2 cents on my approach.

If you are in Canada, you have to wait til the last frost. germinate your seeds, plant, harvest in late fall. Look at growing threads for more info.

Once harvested, cut the fan leaves off (the large ones), if you look at the plant closely you will see the trichomes. you want to keep any material that has those on it, sugar leaves and flower.

let dry for a week or two. If you can break a steam (not bend it) , its dry enough for your purpose and will not get moldy.
Now you may store the sugar leaf/flower into glass jars to cure and preserve.

Yes you can freeze for long term storage.


I will message you the recipe.

sex of the plant wont matter for the mentioned purpose, males produce resin, it has thc and cbd. Just wont be as potent and preferred over sensimilla

RSO is amazing for treating severe dry patches from Psoriasis. I recently put some on a very severe raised, red patch of skin (@ 3" wide x 4" high x ¼" thick) on the back of my husband's head above his neck. After only one treatment (one night), the skin had healed almost entirely — it was no more than 1" x 1" and very thin! It was completely healed after the second treatment. Even oil made with your bag seed grow would probably work. The oil we used only had 57% THC and 1% CBD.
