Cottonmouth question.

After my last final at community college, I scored an eigth of shwag in Los Angeles. I smoked a bit. I decided I didn't want it around any more, so I ate a large part of an eigth. Ten minutes later, my dad asks me if I want to eat at the new Italian restaurant. I said sure. By the time I got there I was turning into jello. I had horrible cottonmouth. I tried eating some bread and I couldn't get the saliva going to chew it. My dad and stepmom could tell there was something strange going on. I got my order of linguini with seafood, which is my favorite dish. Anyways, my question is how do you get the cottonmouth without your eyes or lungs drying out completely, for instance. That always seemed strange to me. I used to love eating hash, when I made solvent hash, BTW.

Smoking shwag always dries out my throat and mouth, almost painfully... I think that it is due to the extremely dry nature of most low quality weed.

Weed causes drymouth, I'm not exactly sure of the mechanism or reason why, but my trick is to drink gatorade, it absolutely kills drymouth. I try to have a bottle of gatorade on me if I know I'll be smoking and it always works, way better than water or anything else I've tried.

HAHA. We'll never understand how pot works until we synthesize all the cannabinoids and try them each and then in almost infinite combination with each other. I read a lot about pot in High Times and I grew up smoking pot. I had to use all my facilities to handle the restaurant experience. I started tripping shortly after I made it to the University of California at Santa Cruz. I had long hair and people came up to me and asked me if I wanted mushrooms. I didn't like the heroin salespeople, because I had heard about that shit. I was afraid to try the LSD, and I just smoked pot and ate mushrooms and I never had any problems or worries.

I keep a drink going while I smoke, helps a little. Pudding cups work too.

You'd think your sinuses would dry out at least. It seems to stop at the back of the mouth.

My sinuses, mouth and throat dry up if I smoke low quality weed, or if I smoke a lot of some better quality stuff. I believe the dry mouth and red eyes are due to some other cannabinoids in the plant material (stems and leaves) not in the THC containing trichomes themselves. This backs up with my experiences smoking poorly trimmed herb, schwaggy herb in general, or after smking a large quantity of buds. I never experience dry mouth as bad with a vaporizer or a few bonghits of some really good stuff. If I smoke more than a bowl of any weed, i'm going to get a dry mouth. Period. This is probably due to the dry smoke as well.

How the fuck do you come up with that logic?
Anyway, it has something to do with agonists and antagonists and canabananoids. The worst thing to do is eat something like dry bread. I usually down whole 2 liters of soda or Gatorade when I'm sober so if I'm high I just hit the closest Irish pub and grab a few pints.

I think cottonmouth is relative to some alkaloid the plant picks up. The same with it being chokey. And I don't mean hydro because that shit always sucks. Even if you dry it properly it can still be chokey. I have done some grow tests and I'm pretty sure I got that theory aced.

They contain a whitening agent that just bleaches the veins whiter. Most eye drops in general aren't any good. I usually spent about $14 for a decent bottle of eye-drops. But you also can't use them too frequently because the eye can become used to it. And while I'm talking about it, I should mention, that counterintuitively, sometimes dryness in the eye is caused by the eye not draining properly. I find my eyes feel much better and don't get as dry if I carefully clean all the gunk out of the corners every morning when I wake up.
That's not true eye drops dont bleach the veins in ur eyes. They contain a topical stimulant which constricts the capillaries in ur eyes. THC dilates(oppistie of constriction) the capillaries in ur eyes and that's y they get red, the capillaries(mini veins) get bigger.

Alcohol hash. Nowadays it would be called concentrate. You boil the pot in alcohol and strain it, then cook off the alcohol. It leaves an oily sludge. You add a little finely powdered cellulose and it forms a solid at room temperature. It melts and bubbles when you smoke it. I'd never make hash with ether or butane unless I was professionally trained. That shit explodes. Our hash was dark green-black from the chlorophyll. It hits really hard. You can pass out/head rush if you torch it out of glass.
