Understanding the Medicinal Properties
This will give you a very BASIC overview and primary foundational understanding of marijuana as a medicine, and also how to categorize it by it's appearance.
I call it the Medical Marijuana Color Spectrum
Keep in mind CBD oil is pitch black !
Essentially, if you have a bar color graph (or bar grap) imagine now that the lightest colors... whites and greens, etc. are on the right. On the left would be the extremes of black, the darkest browns and purples.
Often, if you break a bud apart and you will see multiple colors. You might see lighter whites with dots of purple and red or orange hairs perhaps. Pay attention to each of these facets as this is what's going to help you unlock this colorful spectrum.
If you were to just be observing a cured flower that was prepared and ready to smoke, upon breaking it apart and observing the facets mentioned above you will notice that overall this will fit somewhere from either the left side of the spectrum to where the darker colors are all the way to the right side where the lighter colors are.
99% of the time as your rule of thumb if you are on the right side of the spectrum you're smoking or utilizing marijuana that is higher in THC and of the Indica variety and if it is darker in color it is of the sativa variety and will be heavier in CBD and remember that you're going to be really looking at these comparatively on a ratio and so it's better to cross-reference this particular chart as your general rule of thumb against the other chart that I have not released yet and if I don't somebody else can because I am planting the idea here to make this exact science available to everyone and an easy study.
And another entry on my blog soon I will break down When you would rather have a sativa versus indica and what CBD does and what THC does and we will go over the finer points of what will be Medical Marijuana Periodic Table.
Essentially these will be things that are only quantifiable beyond basic identifi
Name / Strain
Type (Sativa /Indica)
Amount of THC
Amount of CBD
Ratio of another respectively ?.?%/?.?%
Parent strains, ancestery
We can have scientific ancestry of medical marijuana this way too
All Sativa will be color coded red and all Indica color coded blue. Green would be any hybrid(s).
The lightest colors in the spectrum on the right will mostly be indiciative of your "Indica" strains, and the other extreme the Sativa's on the left side of the bar color graph. In-between you have all the hybrids.
There are only these two types of marijuana plants, and what we want to understand is the aspect or ratio of THC to CBD respectively.
For Indica(s), my personal choice for many/most of my ailments, are heavily laden in THC, and less so in regards to CBD.
Sativa's essence is typically reverse to this.
Thinking of Indicas, they are the ones that are heavy in THC. Thinking of the Sativas, these are higher in the CBD content than THC... or opposite of the Indica(s).
A "hybrid" will be a breed of an Indica and Sativa often, although you could have a hybrid of two indica or a hybrid of two sativas as examples also, but referring back to hybrid that would be a breed of indica and sativa, you would have an overall ratio of THC to CBD which you would have to find desirable to your own personal tastes because ultimately that is precisely what gauge is what works best.
You may be treating a physical ailment that requires a certain ratio that you find works best. You may find that you focus best for a certain type of task with one type of marijuana versus another, but this is not to suggest that focus is better through the use of marijuana as opposed to not using it at all.
I can never stress strongly enough, moderation with respect.
THC is your psychoactive component and CBD is your non-psychoactive component. Both of these compounds and others found in the marijuana plant, act upon the cannabinoid system found within the human body.
THC is different for each user but it is something that you will immediately know has somehow seemingly almost altered your reality even though nothing around you changes.It's totally within you and your perception. When you are high, you know it. THC is therapeutic.
CBD has a powerfully calming effect upon the Central Nervous System and the body in general ! It's both calming and soothing.
There are many other cannabinoids in marijuana also, and many other chemicals as well, so it is important to understand that we are studying. These are the two most powerful aspects here, THC & CBD, but that does not include everything else through it's use and therefore, consumption.
The finest way to consume CBD or THC is in the absolutely purest form. Edibles and vaping are sensible if properly measured and respected.
There will be no pollutants in that way of consumption, and the body will have nothing to deal with as far as metabolizing pollutants, beyond its specific use within the cannabinoid system, an system you can read about and study through medical science.
Smoking marijuana is easy, but it is also detrimental to our overall health and is something that we need to try to shun more. It's an irritant & allergen. As society becomes more accepting of medical marijuana, so to will we pave the way to healthier ways of consumption. CAUTION: Edibles are wise but watch your dosage ! Give Time, Time !
One thing that is absolutely very critical to understand is that when you eat medical marijuana the liver metabolizes it completely different than if it were inhaled into the lungs, therefore these different chemical biproducts result in a completely different therapeutic and physical resulting metamorphosis that can be very important to understand and not be overlooked in medicinal use.
Of note,CBD will absolutely take away the cravings of marijuana which are purely psychological after long term use,and CBDwill help to crave the physical dependency as well.
With any drug,it is always wise to make smooth and gradual transitions so that the body is not charged in such a way that it sends shockwaves throughout our entire systems and this should be done under medical supervision or at least the knowledge of your doctor.
Again,as we move into a more progressive future where the average common knowledge rises to its highest levels and we evolve in the way we are able to practice medicine on the self with supervision, it will to be also understood that we will except medical marijuana in a short-term future coming soon and such a way that we might just be going to our grocery store to pick it up. When the shock and awe has worn off about this being legalized, and then we realize how commonsensical it is, it should be available to any adult.
For those that must hold on to law so that there will be some type of oversight then it would probably certainly be fine if it were made illegal to profit to grossly from the growth of marijuana, and it could become illegal to be conspiratorial and nature trying to control the pricing of any marketplace in the medical marijuana field, etc etc and we should follow through with more commonsensical and logical rational laws as such but remember where there is more law there's more government and where there's more government there is more cost in less efficiency, more bureaucracy and a greater cost to you the citizen in the end and this to the greatest detriment so really what MY CRY IS SIMPLY, LEGALIZATION NOT LEGISLATION.
I've made some tall orders herein, and as my health gains, I too will gain the upper hand on the promises I have made here, and elsewhere in my blog, and in life... as finally perhaps I will get to now enjoy the finer health God has granted me. That didn't mean it doesn't take due diligence. my own knowledge has come at great great cost and it must be shared so that others shall not suffer as I have, for what is a life not shared worth?
The main concept is to develop this as a tool so that others will be able to visualize the medicinal use of marijuana and how it breaks down from Indica to Sativa and this Periodic Table for Medical Marijuana will coincide with my graph, The Medical Marijuana Color Spectrum.
Essentially, there will be a protocol the breaks down the different facets as described and why they were chosen and based on this protocol a computer would order any strain based on its actual results or its median results depending on what criteria you would like to choose. You could use an electron microscope and be 100% right where you could meet use the median literature and probably be within range well enough to at least understand precisely how this medicine works.
This would work well accommodating the ever growing lusts if strains from myriad hybrids that will continue to flourish beyond even mankind, as likely it existed long before.
Plant life may be the most sentient of all, adapting and persisting in it's environments dynamic. We have much to learn in it's consumption and shall hold sacred it's gift of health and perspective.
Be not a fool in consumption of anything whatsoever.
Concerning medical marijuana, e're looking at more than just medicine. We're looking at science. We're looking at aspects of science that are critical to understand and therefore it is also wise to have a well-rounded foundational knowledge of those things of which this Science is based upon. That is simply so that you will draw forth the better understanding of the material that you are aasimilating today.
I am doing my best to compress for you, make a zip file if you will, more than a decade's work so that you can learn in an instant what it took a decade to compile studying and researching diligently.
Healing through more than most can fathom.
The body is a miraculous machine !
Plants give it it's best opportunity to heal naturally and through it's own systems.
Sometimes it's almost like each one of us is a Mother ship without a captain, and that is something that must change.
The basics of nutrition truly need to be taught and understood both, far better, and we must push further this envelope of becoming better, and better, stewards to our beautiful Mother Earth.
Being a good steward doesn't contain politics !
Care for your elders, as your turn awaits.
