Oohway said: I've been smoking pot every single day (MMJ, high quality herb) for the last 2 years, and I've recently decided to change my habits to the Terrence McKenna method of Cannabis consumption (where you only smoke it once a week, but in massive quantities to experience the full psychedelic effects, which if done once a week will reset your tolerance to zero by the next time you smoke it)
Now I haven't smoked any for 9 days, and my plan is to make Saturday nights my weed smoking night. My question is, should I wait the full month for my tolerance to completely reset to zero or can I begin smoking it on only Saturdays and have my tolerance gradually reset to zero with the weekly 6.5 day T-breaks that I will be taking from now on? (I'm gonna be smoking at least 2g each saturday)
Keep in mind as well that I'm a distance runner and hit the gym 4 times a week (so I often have anandimide working on my CB receptors). I was lifting and running 4 times a week the entire time through my chronic pot use, and when I quit smoking it every day I upped my exercise regiment to 6 days a week (to help counteract the sleep difficulties associated with quitting a chronic pot smoking habit) and began running an extra mile every day, so I've had a pretty constant release of Anandimide in my brain. I am also training for a Half-Marathon this summer and will be upping my weekly mileage by 3 miles a week every single week, so I'm gonna be experiencing that Anandimide release every single non-pot smoking day.
Even with the increased exercise I've still been sleeping pretty bad and would like to smoke tonight so I can get some sleep before the work week starts again, though I would end up waiting another 7 days before I smoked again. Would smoking 2g slow down my tolerance reset too much even if I was only doing it saturday?
Or you could just try the 20 days on 4 days off thing? That works perfectly for me. 20 days of normal smoking. Then 4 days of no, weed. What so ever.

Oohway said: I can understand why people are wondering why I'd be doing 2g's, and I guess I should expain that I would be smoking it over a period of 6-8 hours, not all at once
If I wanted to trip, I would just do DMT or Mescaline
and I am doing this because I have been a chronic insomniac since the age of 12 and cannabis has been the only drug to ever give me a profoundly restful sleep. If I can get blitzed and sleep deeply once a week, then excercising the other six days will be enough to help me be rested through the work week and college semester.
>>>Just making this clear, I am not attempting to trip on weed! Just get profoundly restful sleep and an opportunity slow down enough so I can recover on my off day from my training schedule and my mind can sort out a week of college classes<<<
Edit: the entire reason I began smoking weed was because I had reached a point where I was having to go to high school 5 days a week on only 2 hours of sleep everynight and got so fed up with that kind of low quality of living that I was willing to try anything, and I had read that weed helped with insomnia. After I discovered that it gave me deep sleep I eventually started using it every day, and then my tolerance started going through the roof. Sleep is my main motivator here. (I have had tons of pharmaceuticals pushed on me and nothing has ever worked other than weed)
Why wouldn't you just blaze nugs every night before bed? You don't even need much to have the affect to allow you to sleep.

So, its set and setting dependent, but MJ can definitely take you to some interesting places. After you pop your high cherry its hard to get into really visual places IME, but at first there was severe depth perception distortions, audio hallucinations, dreamscapes, etc.
I've smoked weed for about 5 years now. I think the OP posted that marijuana helps him sleep? Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. I've been a pretty bad insomniac myself. I find that marijuana is the only thing that will put me to sleep. I've tried melatonin. Xanax, everything there is to prescribe for sleep.. Well anyway, back to why I was posting..
I think that walking through your local neighborhood, or if you have some type of nature close by would be better. I get this feeling whenever I smoke, that I need to get outside. I walk for hours on end sometimes. I walk in the mountains. (I live in the foothills) I find that walking when I'm high I get some of the best physchadelic experiences. I especially love when I am at the crest, and the sun is setting. Its fucking amazing. I'll post some pictures here in a couple of days.

-i only smoke once a week and i get very hogh off of not very good shit so one week works

IME a month would work better and almost perfectly to drop your tolerance to baseline.
I would suggest waiting a month till your cleaned up before you start doing this.
The point is to be completely baseline. Better to make certain you do this instead of going through this and getting unimpressive results.

If you want to get really high once a week I recommend you make some way too strong edibles. Eat a couple grams worth of cannabis infused butter. You'll get way higher that way and you don't run into the problem of not being able to smoke once you get too high to function.
You could also smoke yourself incapacitated when the edibles start to kick in.
Sounds like a fun experiment to me 
You should be our guinea pig. Write a report about your cannabis trip and prove psilocybin junky wrong.

Best of luck op.
I know i would have a very hard keeping my eyes open and staying awake if I where to smoke 2 grams on baseline tolerance.
I would pass out real quick.
Make sure you get Sativas.
Also, you should consider using Hasheesh instead of Weed as i have had mind blowing experiences smoking hash after a month or two of being clean. Its fucking amazing.

Ya, me too. 
I re-read tokinman's post... He did get a bit snarky, but he didn't flame you out PJ. I think tokinman just called it how he saw it... And we all know that if that post was directed at a non-mod there would be no ban. He may have been a bit too forward in expressing his point of view... but that is not a ban-worthy offense. Let's face it - if there wasn't an element of truth at all, you wouldn't be hurt enough by it to bring down the ban hammer.
I love ya both, PJ and tokinman... really, I do think you're both awesome people and I don't wanna step on anyone's toes, but I don't think tokinman's the one in the wrong here.
I'm sad now =( Hang tight tokinman... we'll stage a jail break 
Also I think when we speak from experience we should remember to speak for ourselves and not everyone - it's easy to forget sometimes that these things affect different people in different ways.

He's been warned for flaming in the past and not only by myself, I made some comments, he didn't like them, and made a completely unnecessary reply. It's a 1 day ban fella's, so keep this thread on track, if you have issues that are off topic like this pm me about them, don't derail a thread with it.
Now getting back on topic...

Well I smoked a J of some 50/50, and vaped 2 bowls of pure I and pure S last night. I got WAYYY higher than normal but nowhere near what I used to reach back when I fist started smoking. I got 14 hours of deep sleep regardless though so I am very happy about that, this new method will work great for sleep.
My dispensary has these 200mg brownies for pretty cheap so I'm definitely going to experiment with that, and I've got about 3/4g of 84% sativa hash sitting in my refrigerator. If my tolerance will only continue to go down I am definitely looking forward to it ^_^

I am on a once a week regimen, and (with good bud) it keeps my tolerance low enough that my experience is VERY potent, in fact much more potent than tripping off 2g's shrooms (subjectively speaking of course). Honestly I don't quite understand why people go the whole smoking every day route, to me getting my mind absolutely fucking blown with open eye hallucinations, astounding closed eye visuals, incredible metaphysical mind fucks that make your head spin for days, and many other sensations and experiences once a week is totally worth the 6 days of sobriety.
You should let us know how it goes for you though, tolerance and subjective experience with weed is kind of interesting to me.

Something tells me it's a little more than that, since you never started warning me for those comments until a couple of them started being directed at you. Plus you made an unintelligent, bitchy comment in response to my ammended rating of you, and then when I ripped you to shreds in my response to your rating of me you outright deleted it. But hey, I'm sure that's just a coincidence. 
On topic, to save money use a waterfall-style gravity bong for this sort of thing. (or whatever you want to call it, since some people don't like waterfalls being called g-bongs) Take small hits so it doesn't totally torch your throat, but that'll definitely save bud and I feel like it's a more complete/interesting high because you are getting pretty much everything.
