Hi Brothers and Sisters,
Member of the Year didn't mean much huh? Guess that is why I didn't sleep much last night
Must be a side effect of never winning anything, lol. Last night it sank in and 'hit' me how much Mo and I did this past year to help spread about 'awareness' about our passion for the concentrated oil. Nothing in the world has aroused/matched our 'passion' for the concentrated cannabis oil when we learned of its use until we applied it to caretaking. What we do on the forums is a quarter of what we do to help our 'brothers and sisters' around the world. Sadly most are people/friends who are sent home to 'hospice'. These are the ones in the medical forums we 'skype' with as they have no time to waste. It takes hours for each one of these as it is just not the ailment they suffer from, but as a whole, the whole family is affected. This is why we work so diligently spreading awareness about the concentrated oil. To spread awareness that in large western medicine is a fail.
The Industry; its is time for change! No more using the concentrate as a by-product of trim and shake merrily as an afterthought of more profit. This is not helping the ill who need quality medicinal cannabis used the correct way. Learn that ingesting the oil is nothing more than a warm happy fuzzy feeling. Learn that digesting high grade oil is dangerous to people who are so weak they can hardly stand and get so euphoric they can pass out, slam their head on the ground and die. Make your profits, it's a business, sell edibles, capsules, whatever to the recreational crowd, not to the ill. Know nothing about how the oil works when taken properly? Refer them to 420 Magazine in our dosing tutorials. Every new thing Mo and I have see come about is still a cut down version of the pure concentrate (not absolute oil but next to it). Don't talk the talk until you have learned to take the oil correctly. We already know the results through experience. Time for the Industry to go to the next level. Oldtimers; open up the mind. Three and a half years ago I was you. Been around MJ for over 50 years. Street smart if you will. After all, we want to help our brothers and sisters around the world to have a chance to heal themselves. All the tools are being put in place. Laws are changing slowly. Hemp farms are coming back, MJ getting legalized recreational (so much safer than alcohol), the concentrated oil will be the last hard battle. Why? Pharmaceuticals have kept the suppression on MJ because they know if everyone used the oil correctly they would not have the profits to line our politicians with 'special interest money'.
Dispensaries; when the growers bring you the flowers simply have the strain details so the dispensary can put the label on the back of the nugg jars so budtenders when ask questions like " Is this pure Indica?". And say yes to an OG strain that in truth is Indica dominant but perhaps 30-40 % Sativa. Keeps the wheels turning at night. So instead of getting a deep REM sleep healing their cancer, etc. they are up all night tossing and turning. Just don't sell the oil. Give them an reference if you don't know how the oil works. This will increase your business 10 fold just by supplying ill patients with correct intel and the proper strains to expedite their ailments. Trust me on this one, your business and reputation will flourish way more than you could imagine. Just by knowing your strains. Just ask GFcollective. This young man took noticed and learn the ways of the oil. Not just off of hearsay, but subscribe to the tutorials and watched it being proved to him. Now he is using this knowledge at his dispensary helping the ill. It will change his life forever because he is helping the ill. So proud of you Brother!
Growers; it all starts with quality flowers, without them nothing gets started. I know this is redundant, but your growing skills help so many people who know nothing about MJ so they don't have to spend valuable time they don't have learning, getting ripped off with 'hermie' MJ or worst yet, snake oil. You have spent years learning to grow the elite flowers, take it to the next level and learn about the oil. Its the only way you can master the strains growing them correctly for the intended purpose. You will be amazed at how much you thought you knew to what you will learn. Much, much respect for the elite growers!
In closing; its not one thing or one person who knows what and when. Lets put our skills together as one TEAM. All on the same page. Lets take the Industry to the next level and stop all the confusion that the pharma's and government love. Lets show the sheeple we are ALL on the same page so they follow our lead as examples. Honest, caring people who care not only for those alive today but our future generations so they can live a 'drug' free life from western medicine.
Final thoughts; Guess this was our 'Thank you" post, lol. A mention to members Mo and I are so proud of and the order of their names is random as my mind, lol. Budnoob2, Antics, cajuncelt, Beemerbill, Cannafan, fghtsmallcell, 60 Cal, SmokesDaKush, Hiker, Iverspol (first heal on the forums with stage four Hodgkin's Lymphoma), if I missed your name forgive me, (it would freak you out how many names are up in my brain) Most all came from 420 grow forums. Thank you all for taking a leap of faith in Mo and I. I know we nagged the heck out of most of you and didn't let up. Because each and everyone one of you had passion in your heart. There are so many members we are anxious to meet right here in this thread. You are reading this because you guys and gals have passion like we do, ready to help others at the drop of a hat. Lets merge as one and put our heads together so the 'truth' will set the world free.
420 Magazine and staff, again, thank you for your support giving us a place to help with awareness.
Much love Brothers and Sister's,
Motoco and Mo
