I really get fantastic pain relief for my lumbar spine with green dragon, I tried it at a dispensary in Denver and was a believer from that moment on. I live 3 hours from the metro and after that drive I went to a dispensary for some sort of relief from the damn pain,( Cannabis Medical ) I believe is the name of the place and the owner had me try a dropper under my tongue. In less than ten minutes my back pain was gone. It was a glycerin based tincture and I purchased a small bottle ( $25 at the time for what was probably a half fluid ounce ) and used until it was gone and worked well on my pain. When it was gone, a day or so later my pain started coming back hard and not wanting to drive 6-7 hours I looked it up on the net and found out how to make it, I use everclear or 151 and a bag of trim for $ 50.00, can produce a good 8-12 ounces for a very reasonable price. However I have noticed as well, the potency is really dependent on the quality of trim, if I can ever afford it I will make a batch out of good bud. With the pontency variation I just had to self titrate and adjust as needed based on the batch. I find I can function well, not much of a head high at all, but a fantastic pain relieving body high, but it is strange as it seems to have the best effect only on my back pain, some ( very little ) relief for my pains in other areas, and as a sleep aid, a dropper full before bed and I am out in 20 minutes for a decent nights sleep
Colodonmed Reviewed by Colodonmed on . Does anyone REALLY use tincture? A lot of the tincture I've tried seems more like snake oil. Lots of inconsistency, bad flavor, over priced, gives me headaches. Does anyone really like tincture here? Any brands you can recommend? Rating: 5
