It wasn't until things were legalized that I had the option to try a 1:1 strain (equal ratio of CBD to THC) and I've found that to be a much better balance for me. The psychoactive aspects are still there, but less intense, more relaxing and without negative feelings. Kind of like sipping beer vs shooting tequila.

This is a perfect example of how prohibition doesn't work. When alcohol was illegal in the USA, the only drinks you could really get a hold of was whiskey, moonshine and other high percentage beverages.

When illegal, the dealers want to be the ones with the best (strongest) product on the market.

Once made legal, the lower percentage drinks became available such as wine and beer, and they became the best selling and most popular type of drink. Drink that doesn't smash them across the face by the end of the night.

The same will (and is) true in regards to weed legalisation, the powers that be will harp on about weed these days being too strong, and shouldn't be legalised for that very reason, yet it has been shown that stronger drugs is an effect of a ban on the sale of these products.

The sooner it is legalised, the better, as I will be able to go to a shop and have all the available information at hand to help me make the best decision for my anxiety requirements. Instead, atm, I have to go to a dealer, who sells all the finest buds, but I have nothing to go on other than look, smell, and anecdotal evidence from someone who's main purpose is sell all her flowers, not ensure her customer is getting the right product for her needs.

This is the most exciting thing about legalization to me. If I could go buy high cbd strains with a manageable level of thc I’d be first in line. I don’t want to get super high on thc. I just want all of the other effects.

They definitely sell 10:1 CBD:THC and 100% CBD in California. 100% CBD weed doesn’t even need to be sold at dispensaries. They sell that at lots of stores. My mom said the feed store has CBD oil for your pets.

Legalization is the best.

CBD is "technically" federally legal since the 2018 Farm Bill. Practically, it's in this limbo position where if it's allowed without any restrictions it's very hard to control THC which is a Sched 1 drug that Feds care a lot about. That's why even though you can buy CBD from your closest market, people still get busted for "smuggling" because CBD cannabis (and hemp) looks identical to marijuana. So currently it's in this weird limbo state where it's 100% legal but its legality cannot be enforced so in some places it's not possible to find CBD.

Also, I think CBD is effective for dogs and cats (e.g. for seizures) but apparently there is some evidence THC is toxic to cats and dogs. So PLEASE be sure your CBD doesn't include THC before feeding it to your pet.

yes, its technically federally legal, but some cities around me are still prosecuting CBD possession

Less THC in the leaves, more CBD in the leaves.
