Cannabis Oil Dosing Tutorial: Tacking Method

I asked from my dentist today, how to dry best my lower gums. She said, wash off all old saliva with water, because saliva is slimy and not easy to wipe off. Then dry the WATER off with paper towel.
When we cool down the gums with water, we already do it. It is still one of my personal weak points, so thought I'll mention. I blamed paper towels but perhaps the problem was in slimy saliva.
She also advised to push small paper rolls onto the gum pockets of upper teeth nr6 on both side during dosing, as there are two big saliva glands. Small saliva glands are in many other places still though.
Another good tip is just to hold your head back 20 min after the tack, saliva runs to throat.

So you took 2 doses a day.
Diluted by a medium chain fat which caused it to be converted to THC ∆11 & expelled. That's why you were out of it.
So you dosed 1/2g of oil with 1/2g of coconut oil twice a day?
Cannabinoids stay in our ECS 4 hours at best before the liver adioses them.
Your 500mg of CO each dose probably amounted to no more than 65mg being available.
That tiny 65mg only lasted a few hours. So you went untreated for hours before the 2nd dose. Which again was probably no better than 65mg in your system.
You didn't have 1000mg (1 gram) a day. You had 15% of that at best & left the cancer unchecked for hours.

Hi Cajuncelt,

My mind is clearer now than when I first replied.

I went back and re-read your 'Base Treatment Regimen' and I think I understand a little better.

Looks like I have a few alternatives:

1. Mix my CO with coconut oil (MCFA) and split the 1000 mg into say 5 doses or more throughout the day and still use a 1ml syringe.

2. Learn how to tack properly like 94xjjohn and do as many tacks as possible.

3. Mix my concentrate with organic olive oil LCFA and also eat some coconut oil or apiginen tablets 20-30 minutes before ingesting via the back door as above.

Or is it possible that my metabolism isn't suited to cannabis oil?

Thank you for your time and advice. I don't want to go through the whole procedure of growing etc again and get it wrong twice!

And also Mariamlu, thanks for that excellent advice on getting rid of the saliva. I'm definitely going to give that a go.

Cheers to all, Nobby

Hi nooby,

I was short on time but I wanted to say to you; believe 100% and it will happen. Mo and I wanted to give our best wishes for you doing Radiation. It is so hard to try to do oil in a timeframe. It brings so much anxiety along with it. It takes more than just oil, more than chemo/radiation, it is conquering anxiety/stress/depression that comes with the word Cancer. As far as I'm concerned they should toss out the word cancer and focus on the immune system. Watch that vid and learn, it can save your life. If you can get some more oil together and when they get your count down on radiation we can touch bases if you would like and give it another go around. Sending positive vibes and spiritual thoughts! Give your Wife our best also and keep the 'faith'. How the battle is one in our opinion. The mind can win the war, stay 'blessed'!

Thanks Motoco and Mo. I'm back on Lucrin, the hormone replacement therapy, and thankfully don't have to endure radiation at the moment, and by what I read, I never will submit to it.
I watched the Subconscious video and got a lot from it. I used to do meditation in my younger days and I'm a firm believer in its effectiveness, so it looks like I might have to get started again!
I'm not giving up with this small setback, and by hook or by crook I'll knock this cancer on the head good and proper!
Thanks again, Nobby.
 
Hi Nobby,

It may have been you who asked me the strains I used for the oil. Forgive the delay.

I used just what Motoco taught us to use.

Sativa dom. buds for daytime oil. I used various strains with no consideration as to the CBD content or S/I ratio.

Indica (as pure as poss) buds for nighttime oil. I also used various strains with no thought given to CBD content.

I'm sorry if this seems too random, but I think strains are not critical if you use these general guidelines.

Other considerations (receptor cleansing, strain specifics, CBD content, etc.) may increase pressure on any given illness and be a valuable tool. I was lucky, I'm well aware. It seems prostate cancer is easy for CO to knock out (can't use the word cure). It does seem necessary to continue with a maint. dose as c. has a way of returning.

I've stopped 10 tacks a day now that there is no sign of c. and am tacking 2-3 times a day, sativa in the day, indica at night.

When I started tacking, my PSA (prostate specific antigen) number was 524. Within 2 weeks it was up to 556. In 2 months it was 504, and at 6 months, it dropped to 3.36 like a blessed rock. So...terminal...then even higher...then slightly (10%) lower...then (BAM) to 3.36.

I pray you have this same experience, Nobby.

I'll work on being faster with the answers to questions I feel I know.

:Namaste:
 
The video was wonderful and should be watched/listened to multiple times IMHO. My children were raised with the relentless sound of their mother's voice reminding them that "Your brain doesn't know the difference between reality and what you tell it. It accepts what you tell it as reality 100% of the time." I like to think they heard me. I truly was relentless.

Great work going on here. Let me jump back to page three and get to reading again.
 
You know me well mon ami. :laughtwo: I'll be keeping track of real time as I catch up. Ill try my best to keep quiet here and learn. If I get out of hand I count on you to remind me of this promise. Deal?
 
Hi all, just have a few questions...

My GF hasn't been taking any oil recently as she had a couple of bad tacks that got here extremely stoned (which she doesn't enjoy). 911 tack didn't seem to help negate the high. This may have been because one of the medications she was on (not taking now), Diflucan, affects the liver enzymes and we found out that it can make people 3 times more sensitive to THC (so she gets 3 times higher than me).

When she is stoned, she gets a lot of anxiety (which I can understand), but also she says she is in much more pain than usual. There are so many people taking CO for pain, I'm wondering why it has the opposite effect on her? Is it from the medication? Is it from the strain (Vanilla Kush)? Did I not let it finish long enough (I left it for more weeks than the breeder recommended and there were lots of amber tricomes)?

I also feel my muscles tightening and kind of aching (especially the jaw muscles) when I take the oil. I think it's for all of the oils I have made (used homemade moonshine @ 93%).

The anxiety and pain also prevents her from sleeping so then the next day (or days) is worse all around.

I'm trying to get her back on the oil (but she's reluctant), and for her to do lots of small tacks throughout the day, rather than just two or three large ones. Also, as we're coming into mango season, I was going to have her eat a small amount of mango and coconut oil before each tack. Anything else I should be looking into?

She's also just started on Golden Paste (turmeric paste), and I'm hoping the combination will be synergistic.

Unfortunately, I don't have much sativa oil for daytime, so she's just going to have to have the CBD oils which are indica based (Critical Cure and Blue Shark) until the next harvest in a few months (then I should have Strawberry Blue and Super Silver Haze).

Any insights would be appreciated.
 
I just wanted to speak to the increased pain awareness. This may be due to the heightened sensory awareness brought on by the uptick in anxiety. I deal with this often with my daughter, who dances with extreme anxiety. If you're feeling effects as well you may be dealing with other issues that need attending, and others will step forward, I'm sure.
 
Thanks Sue. Yes, I thought it could be to do with the anxiety and heightened awareness. My GF has quite a lot of anxiety most days (xanax helps but isn't sustainable) and we are both under a lot of stress (struggling with her illness for so long).

Also, growing here is illegal and I find I get paranoid about what's in my backyard when I'm stoned. I realize I could be grinding my jaw from anxiety/paranoia, hence the jaw pain.

I did read on an old thread on the forum where someone mentioned an increased pain awareness can be from medicine that wasn't finished long enough, but haven't read it anywhere else.
 
Sam...God Bless you and your Girlfriend and may Peace find you,

Of Course the stress of your situation would cripple the normal soul. You have so much to fear, ...that it's natural. And you are here, strong in the face of overwhelming odds.

Stress is the biggie here...

Would that I could wave a wand and have you both here with me, with ample meds and PEACE.

But we must do with what we have.

Don't let a sloppy tack and a weird western med interrupt your gf's protocol especially if this is a life threatening illness! This may well be your MISSION in life. Indica is OK although mood is much better with daytime sativa.

Before I go on....what illness, if I may be so bold?

Missed the point:Yes, anxiety seems to crank up the pain sensors and being stoned DOES NOT HELP.

If you understand that this is natural human instinct....take control of your mind....create peace. Yes, it'll feel fake at first. It'll feel real second...believe in the power of your restful mind.

Believe in the power of your restful mind.

:Namaste:

I can't speak with authority about the information in that old thread, but might I suggest that if this were a big concern we'd be hearing about it more often? Certainly one needs to follow the process, but I'd assume you know what you're doing here Sam. You certainly present a certain air of competence born of experience.

It also sounds like you've determined that a good deal of what you and she deal with is stress-related. Believe me, I understand that. I spent 20 years fighting non-stop next to my husband to keep him going with dignity and purpose, and developed some very specific methods to keep the stress at bay as much as possible. It's as much a mind game as anything, but it's a mind game your bodies need you to play. The goal is homeostasis. That's easier for your body to achieve if you're laughing. Best we can do for stress is to offer to be here if you need an ear. You know how to find me if the need arises. Anytime.

You have each other. That's half the battle right there Sam. :Love:

Thanks John! I've got a while (like 6 months) before my new crop is ready for oil making, so I'm back on hormone therapy for the moment. Next time I'll be dosing more regularly, tacking hopefully and researching researching, and in the meantime checking in here at least every few days and giving advice (or maybe not! with my record) when I can and making sure you're all behaving yourselves. ha ha!

I wish you continued good health, mate! I am genuinely stoked that you're out of the woods and frolicking in the buttercups!!

NO. All life except plants and insects have , for the last 600 million years, possessed an endo-cannabinoid system that relies on cannabinoids made by those very same bodies, to control many functions of every cell in them.

You are NOT unique in 600 million years of evolution. Sorry to burst your bubble.

Your body is controlled by cannabinoids, like it or not.

If your body metabolism wasn't suited to cannabis oil, you'd be dead.

Sure can make you too high though.

You haven't mastered tacking if this is the problem.

Is your life worth mastering tacking?

Is hers?

You betcha! Every minute of every day, buckaroo.

Love you guys...here for ya.

Yeah I know I know! But you see, I forget to remember....


And yes as soon as I get my new oil made I'll be tacking until I master it. Thanks John!
 
:rofl:Ya just gotta love that Nobby...:thumb:
 
Is there anyone working on a video of the tacking process? I know this had been discussed sometime back, not sure if it was here or private discussion though.
Do you think it would be useful?
