CBD is a lie invented by Big Cannabis to trick you into paying $2 for a gummy bear (hexbear.net)

The CBD space is incredibly grifty. Even reputable sellers like Lazarus Naturals will charge $20+ for a bottle of CBD oil that you can make yourself for $2. But if you walk into your local CBD store or gas station expect to be grifted way harder. One time I really wanted to try this strain of CBDv flower (Forbidden V) so I went to a CBD shop in the area and they wanted $10 a gram. A few days later I bought an entire 1/2 pound from a farm that was running a clearance sale for $20 (lol).

It's actually fucking criminal how much people get ripped off.

But I've had the best results from smoking flower or making my own oil with isolate. It definitely has a calming/anti-inflammatory effect. I'd suspect a lot of people who try it are looking for a high they aren't going to find or buying trash products.

& if you want to try CBD buy from these guys and make your own oil (look up a howto on reddit or somewhere; it's simple) : https://gildedextracts.com/99-cbd-isolate/ don't waste your money on gummies.
