Thanks
@beez0404 always happy to get your advice. I actually started on this whole journey for Mrs. Bard. She has fibro and RA, and so was looking for something to help her with pain and sleeping. Since they legalized here in Canada last year, I had been buying from the gov dispensary, but the quality was pretty poor (dry, dusty nuggets, with very little aroma). But it worked. I played around with cookies, ice cream (yum!), peanut-butter cups, etc., but settled on gummies as the easiest/fastest to make, and convenient to nibble a couple at bed time.
The Mango Haze that I got from the gov store tested out as 9% THC and 7% CBD, so pretty balanced; I think it is more likely a CBD enhanced strain. Mrs. Bard has one gummy and gets drowsy. She sometimes pops a second one at 1am or so, if she wakes up. I have one a couple of hours before bed, and it just takes the edge off - nice mellow, spacey feeling. I read for a couple of hours, then pop another 2 gummies. Knocks me out until alarm goes off in the morning.
I did make gummies from my own Purple Kush plant. Nice buzz, but not sleepy-making. Better for an afternoon mellow-out.
For this new grow, I think that the NL and The Doctor should be more for bedtime, especially if I let them get some more amber. The Chems will definitely be for a morning coffee. Maybe some canna-cream in my future!
I have some seeds for some other strains that are supposed to be even more narcotic in effect (Aurora Indica, Sleepy Yoda, Pink Kush) but they will have to wait for next grow.
Hope that makes sense?
