I’ve never been good at sleeping. Either I can’t get to sleep in the first place, or I wake up every 2 hours throughout the night. And that’s just on an average night, of course it gets much worse if I’m trying to sleep without smoking weed!
In my haul of cannabinoids from Mellow Moose, I grabbed this ‘Sleep’ formula, which is a pure CBN (cannabinol) tincture. I had never tried CBN before this tincture, but I wish I had discovered it sooner.
I’ll take a dropper of this and a dropper of the CBD tincture together, so in total, 50mg of CBN and 100mg of CBD. I read that they work best when taken together, and it does seem true.
Within an hour of taking them, I have been starting to drift off no matter where I’m sitting, or what I’m doing. Granted I only take them later at night, when it’s about bed time anyway, but they have really been ensuring that I fall asleep. And best of all, these make me stay asleep! When I take this CBN, I can stay asleep all the way through the night.
After years of incredibly fragmented sleep no matter what I do, it’s been such a great feeling to finally sleep all the way to the morning. I can’t believe the answer has been out there the entire time, I just had to trust that high quality cannabinoids were the answer.
I used this discount code, ‘Dallas20’ for 20% off my order with Mellow Moose. Overall, it’s been a game changer for me, and I definitely recommend it.
I’ve tried a few CBD tinctures in the past, and never really had any good results. Some of them had added terpenes that hurt my stomach, some had plain nasty aftertastes, and none of them actually had the effect I was looking for; a calm, relaxed, quieter brain and body.
After having those experiences, I just stopped trying. Until recently, when I realized I was having more issues than usual when it comes to feeling relaxed & calm. I was waking up feeling jittery, feeling restless at night, just feeling more and more high strung overall. After seeing so many people having such success with CBD tinctures, I decided to give it one more try, but this time I’d do it different; I researched brands, how they make their product, whats in them, etc, and one brand stuck out to me. Mellow Moose!
When doing my research on brands that actually create clean, USDA certified, organic CBD tincture, I stumbled upon a post on a forum for cannabis enthusiasts and business operators. The post was written by a man named Sterling, talking all about his family farm in Oregon, and his brand of CBD, Mellow Moose. I even got the chance to exchange a few messages with him, and it was immediately clear to me that he not only knew exactly what he was talking about, but he was also extremely passionate about hemp and everything surrounding it.
He walked me through exactly what his farm does to create cleaner product than most brands. While most other brands use harsh solvent chemicals to extract cannabinoids from their hemp flower, Mellow Moose uses a clean, solventless, water-based process to extract theirs. He was also very transparent, with an instagram full of genuine pictures and videos from their hemp farm, dating years back. They show everything about themselves, which really helps me trust them!
So, I decided to try some of their product, and it has opened my eyes to what CBD tinctures can do. Based on my previous experiences, my expectations weren’t super high. But, this stuff kind of blew me away. I was feeling a bit stressed, which had become somewhat of a normal lately, as I mentioned earlier. An hour after taking one dropper of this tincture, I had the most relief I had felt in weeks. My mind and body felt a certain ‘equilibrium’ feeling that I rarely feel, and it was amazing. All of the stress, anxiety and worry just melted away, and I was able to just relax and laugh to a funny TV show.
Whereas a few weeks before, I would have been so caught up in my head, stressing about things, that I would hardly be able to pay attention to a show in the first place. But after one dropper of this, it was like all of my current issues were gone, and replaced with a feeling of total contentedness.
Overall, I really can’t recommend Mellow Moose enough!

This bottle has lasted me about a month so far, and I’ve been taking a dropper every day or two. I’m only halfway through the bottle! ~$70 for a month of pure calm has been incredibly worthwhile to me. I would (and will) do it again in a heartbeat. Cannot recommend these guys, or this product, enough!
I’ll admit, I let my bong get dirtier than I should. That’s because I’m smoking all day every day, I don’t want to get alcohol on me constantly while I clean this thing after every bowl. I do clean it every couple of days, though.
But, people frequently tell me, “Just put some Zep degreaser in your piece and let it sit overnight!” And that sounds ridiculous to me.
For one, that’s a very harsh chemical to be using, kind of overkill in my opinion. And 2, this is very easily done in just 5 minutes, with even cheaper, household options. There’s just no need to waste your time soaking overnight!
So, here is the easiest way to clean your bong, glass, piece, pipe, whatever it is that you smoke out of. These same methods can be used with just about any smoking device!
All you need to do is add salt (the coarser the better!) & isopropyl alcohol (91%+ works best, but 70% will work as well.)
Then, you shake the shit out of that thang and watch it start to sparkle before your eyes!
Afterwards, make sure to rinse very well, you don’t want to inhale the isopropyl alcohol. Luckily, one benefit of using it, is that it evaporates incredibly fast, no matter what, so risk is very minimal.
Today I decided to make some infused quesadillas. I keep a stock of cannabutter in my fridge for moments like these, so let’s get right in to it!
I only used 3 ingredients, just tortillas, cheese and the cannabutter.
First, I took about half a tablespoon of my cannabutter (in my case, about 100mg) and put it in a pan on the stove. Turned it on to medium heat, and let the cannabutter melt.
Next, while the butter melted, I took my tortilla and shredded cheese on to it.
Once the butter was melted and hot, I added the cheesy tortilla and let it fry for a couple minutes before folding it in half.
After another couple of minutes, I flipped it, ensuring the cannabutter had gotten to a nice crisp golden brown on both sides.
Afterwards I cut it up and ate it straight up. It was delicious, not too ‘weedy’ tasting, and hit perfectly!
The fat content of the cheese definitely helped the thc absorb into my body, as fatty foods do. This was a great medicated meal!
This one is Mango Runtz, which they claim is an unknown cross of Runtz and a mango dominant strain, but I’m pretty confident it’s regular old ‘Mango’ aka Mango OG. It has that same creeper effect, as well as the pure indica feeling. It’s a great combo!
The nose is a nice sour candy, with a tropical fruity vibe in there. A little gassy too. It translates well to flavor, with more gas coming out in the taste.
These are some beautiful nugs with amazing bag appeal! Smell is strong and musky, the nugs are beautiful and sticky, and rolls up well.
The effects are a creeper, a bit slow to kick in, but they definitely come. It hits me like a pure indica, so much sleepiness in my opinion. There’s a good amount of euphoria too, but mostly just this dreamy, floaty, sleepy indica bliss, that I really love. I’ve been smoking this one at night, and it’s been putting me right to sleep. Great for insomnia!
Nose is light, sweet, sugary and clean, almost like a salt scrub, or a lemon bar. 95% sweet, light sugar, 5% lemony citrus. Flavor is similar, but with a hint more citrus .
Effects are a very even hybrid, good for day time use, not too strong. Spacey but uplifted, relaxed, & euphoric. Can’t go wrong with this one!
Today I’m taking a quick look at 2 different strains under my microscope, an essential and a supreme tier.
This essential we’re looking at is BubbleGum Runtz, and the Supreme is Pineapple Zoap.
I put them both under my microscope to examine the difference between high quality and mid quality flower on a microscopic level.
Top shelf vs low shelf, top shelf vs mid shelf, high grade vs mid grade, high grade vs low grade, any way you want to put it, this was an easy way to answer that question with flower from LIT Farms.
The comparison is very fun to see and I had a good time creating this. I hope someone out there enjoys looking at this as much as I enjoyed creating it!
Nose on this is amazing. It’s like it’s half sweet/fruity, and half earthy/gassy. it hits like a straight indica.
I’m amazed with this one, it knocked me right out a couple nights ago. Super relaxing, very stoney and has a heavy body load. I don’t notice any back pain at all with this. I grabbed this and pink grapefruit, and that one is a nice sativa, but this one is a KILLER Indica. Feeling lifted and blessed 🙌
