BCDD, With luck, I will be dropping off an oil sample Thursday or Friday for testing. I will try to time it around mid morning when it is likely to be slow. They already know we are interested in terpenes. I will ask if they would recommend a supplier. They have already cautioned me to be careful of sources.
They have said "Call if you need to ask something." I don't want to abuse it. Consulting is $200 an hour. It is better to share some bud and plant fotoes with each other and work a few questions in. One of those guys has some nice plants in 35 gallon pots.
I never know
Hi Canyon - the be careful with sources - was that just general or have they identified some specific companies to avoid?
I prefer 4 but 3 is readable.
I've been looking at strain reviews and also reading what strains people have been using to treat conditions medically. But maybe we need to setup a poll for what strains people are using and have found effective for different things (pain, sleep, spasms, seizures, anxiety, etc. ). Perhaps from there we could work backwards and figure out the terpenes responsible or at last find patterns?"From our effects chart you'll see that public health research indicates Terpinolene in isolation has sedative effects. We have found that to be true. However, when combined with other substances it appears to have uplifting, stimulating effects."
This premise raises an interesting question in my mind, as well as another point of confusion.
In a quest to find seed stock for the perfect strain for my needs, in addition to perusing various reviews, I place a lot of credence in the terpene content. In the past, if I wanted a sedative effect, I look for strains containing high amounts of myrcene, linalool or terpinolene. Seeking an uplifting effect, I've always looked to limonene, a-pinene, etc, etc.
But now, if the above statement is factual, (and with my experienced effect of the Durban Poison blend with gobs of supposedly sedative terpinolene, I can't contradict it's validity) I'm going to have to stop relying on the prominent terpene content of a given strain to predict its effects.
I've considered buying individual terpene isolates and creating my own blends but with this newly found information this could be insurmountably confusing and mixtures would truly be a trial and error challenge.
Just another question in a long list of confusing anomalies!?!

I agree.I agree, but keep in mind well be dealing with the reality that the same chemovar will produce different effects for individual patients. It's still the best place to start, IMO. If we start a poll thread we can broadcast its presence widely and see what comes in.
A thought if this is the way we go: such a thread would be most useful is it were limited to the testimonials and recommendations, with no conversation. I'm considering that approach with a series of threads I'm putting together on opioid withdrawal. There'd be the main thread with the regimen and protocols and a pair of sister threads - one to post the regimens of members who've attempted withdrawal with cannabis and a second one for conversations about that thread. In this way the entire testimonial thread would be lacking the clutter of conversations.
Those conversations are important though, and I'm hoping the convo thread will fill that need. In the case of this suggested poll, the conversations would be going on over here.

Will New Mexico Be the Next State to Legalize It?
By Victoria Kim 02/02/18
If so, the state would be the second to legalize cannabis for adult use through the state legislature rather than a voter referendum.
New Mexico may be next in line to legalize cannabis for adult use. The Drug Policy Alliance reported that on Wednesday, Jan 31, a state representative introduced House Bill 312 to tax and regulate cannabis in New Mexico.
"The war on marijuana has been a miserable failure," said Rep. Javier Martinez, who introduced the measure. "We spend millions of dollars criminalizing people who use marijuana without seeing benefits to public health or safety. We need to legalize marijuana in New Mexico and stop the harm that disproportionately impacts those who are living in poverty and those who are Black, Native and Hispanic/Latino.".............
...........Proponents of the measure acknowledge that they don't expect HB 312 to pass in 2018, but look forward to the conversation that it will generate in the state legislature. A second measure was introduced in the state senate for the same purpose. SJR 4 was pre-filed by state Senator Gerald Ortiz y Pino to amend the state constitution to legalize, tax and regulate cannabis for adult use. As of January 17, the measure was referred to the Senate Rules Committee, according to NORML.
If either of these measures make it to the governor's desk, New Mexico would become the 10th state to legalize cannabis for adult use, and the second to legalize cannabis through the state legislature rather than voter referendum.
The State needs the revenue. Last years bill never came to the floor.
I dropped off a sample of the botched batch of oil for an extended potency test. I ask about terpene suppliers. He said he was only speaking personalty and not for SH, but two of the employs were using True Terpene.
Just a heads up, if you are having anything other than buds tested, it is a good idea to let the lab know what the dilution is. You will get a better test.
