As promised in my last post, here is my review of the latest Rove Brand cannabis cartridge I have purchased, Sherbet. With 78.82% active cannabinoids, I was expecting a pretty punchy experience, but I was weirdly surprised. This cannabis oil is an indica dominant hybrid blend. It has a very creamy, vanilla and citrus flavor, earning the name Sherbet. I puffed twice and waited for twenty minutes. Nothing. No effect, no pain relief, no high, no heady buzz, just nothing. I turned up the temp on my Rove Pro battery pack and puffed twice more. I was still not floored by a wave of cannabis fueled giggles and euphoria that I have come to expect from rove products, but I was treated to some body buzz and a little bit of a mood lift. The effect was pleasant and the vape is the tastiest one I have tried from Rove yet, but since I paid $150 for the new cartridge and the battery pack, I was not terribly impressed by the effect of the cartridge when I first tried it last night. But then! I woke...

It's that time again! Time for a review of another Rove product, my very favorite brand of cannabis vaporizer. I subscribe to text messages from my favorite local dispensary (Pisos in Las Vegas), and they are kind enough to send out text alerts when products are restocked, sales, specials, and when new products come in. Two days ago I received one such alert informing me that they are now stocking FULL GRAM cartridges from Rove! Before I was only able to purchase half gram cartridges, but I have been SO eager to purchase a full gram, so this was wonderful news! Naturally, I headed to the dispensary just as soon as I could. When I arrived I asked the staff about the full gram cartridges, but I was informed that the cartridges were not being sold in their own, but were instead being sold along with the new Rove Pro battery pack. The old Rove battery was in the pen style of vaporizers: I had no complaints about this version of the product, other than the proprietary USB cha...

Well, after three weeks of puffing on my Ape Strain cartridge from Rove Brand cannabis extraction vapes, the little half gram of wonderful cannabis oil has finally started to deplete. I imagine I would have gotten more time out of the little thing if I didn't go on vacation a week ago and let everyone in Northern Nevada try out my handy dandy little stealth rig. That being the case, 3 weeks is pretty damned impressive! After all the tasty good times I had with my Ape cartridge, I wanted to try something new. I went to my local dispensary and talked to my favorite budtender. She is also an avid user of Rove products and advised I give the Kush flavor a shot. Here's the breakdown: Total THC: 69.59% Total CBD: 2.65% Total CBN: 1.89% Total CBG: 3.12% The total active cannabinoids: 79.59% What do all these numbers mean? the Kush cannabis oil cartridge is an indica dominant hybrid blend which is ideal for treating pain, nausea, easing stress, and calming muscle spasms. It i...

The experiment of using cannabis to treat my extreme menstrual discomfort was an astounding success. I did not use one single narcotic pain pill nor did I feel the urge to reach for alcohol to soothe and dull my sharp cramps. I was blown away. Additionally, the pain in my left knee which is ever present was also calmed quite a bit, reducing to a distant ache rather than the white hot needle pain that I have grown so used to. The biggest benefit, however, was the huge reduction in my anxiety. Over the course of a few days, I finished both of the joints I had purchased. While the benefits were fairly incredible, the economy of this type of medicine was not so incredible. I cannot afford to spend $42 every three days. I was feeling disheartened about the cost, but my husband advised that we go back to the dispensary and talk to the experts about it and see what they advise. So back we went to the dispensary. The same staff greeted us warmly and we were shown into the sales room. I spoke...
