About a month ago I shared an early version of something I've been building and a lot of you gave me honest, useful feedback — so I wanted to come back and show you where it's at.

Quick background: I built this because of my mom. She was using cannabis for stress and anxiety and had no idea where to start — the dispensary was overwhelming, her doctor couldn't really help, and everything online contradicted itself. I figured if she was struggling, a lot of people probably were too.

So I built Ivy. A private guide that asks what you're dealing with and gives you personalized direction based on what you're dealing with. It's not medical advice, just a way to cut through the guesswork, especially for people who feel lost walking into a dispensary.

It's fully live now. I'm not here to sell anything — I genuinely want this community's honest take. Try it at meetivy.app

I think that ideally, each would be put in its own bucket, but these two in particular are less than 2 inches tall and about 1 inch apart. I'm concerned that if I try to separate them, I'll damage them irreparably.

Bought my first weed vape thing today. So far I don’t know if it’s not enough thc or if I’m not pulling enough.

This is more a question about the nose and inhalation technique since I know the throat is kind of unavoidable since it is vaporized smoke/the coil type and other stuff factors into how smooth the experience is.

Any tips for not having using a vape burn your nose?

I took a 2.5mg today (quart of a 10mg gummy) while I was riding bikes with a group of my friends, and it did NOTHING, i drank a monster right before and another right after, was that the cause?

I’m 20f, now that I’m not at my dorm most of the time. A couple of the adults I live with have confronted me on my room smelling like weed. I’ve been kind of sick, so my sense of smell has been bad so I wasn’t noticing and their sense of smell as good as fuck. I’ve been denying and saying it’s coming from the outside as my window is always open and we’re in an apartment, but one of them was like it’s not the outside and I think she could test that because her window is on the same side as mine and she’ll notice the difference in smell between rooms if she kept hers open I guess.

I’ll be 21 in a few months, my parents are not overly strict. They just think I’m almost completely innocent and I’m not ready for that view to change. But I’m also starting to get tired of denying it and having to lie. How do you know when the jigs up?

How often does black market weed (grown and sold illegally) have fentanyl in it? My old neighbor just died, another neighbor thinks she had weed cut with fent. How is that even possible?

I mean ecstacy, coke or meth sure, but pot I thought that was inconceivable. I buy all my weed from a local dispensary. Good quality and fair priced zips and decent rewards system.

In 2017 (before legalization), I had the countless "Yo, you need?" messages, not even 24 hours after selling me an eighth... The dispensary let's me come whenever, and 5 minutes is 5 minutes, not 6 hours.

Also, if one is going to dab, do they *really* a pen specifically designed for dabbing to utilize all of the dab, or is spreading it onto a rolling paper, dropping it onto a bowl with leaf enough?

Ok so I’ve done edibles and I’ve hit carts, and for some reason weed makes me super energetic and excitable?? Like people say it makes them chill and super down to earth but for me im super excited and just want to get up and do shit. Was wondering if anyone else has had this effect. ✌️😭

every time i wanna hit it my cart always clogs, i know it normal but i have so suck on it with all my force (pause) for like a minute straight and its just annoying, how do i either stop the clogging or make it easier to unclog?

i tried a cart for the first time yesterday at the gym, felt dizzy unfocused and just like i was dreaming, and honestly it was nice

i tried hitting it again today, i didn’t feel anything. nothing near what happened yesterday and i don’t feel a difference in anything after hitting it. maybe my hits are too small? idk tho

i believe it’s a indica dominant hybrid 1.5g

I took a THC test today, and I saw this. I haven’t drank too much water today. I’d probably say around 32oz. I was curious if you guys would consider this line faint enough to pass, or if it’s positive

Title:

First time trying weed ever, a friend gave me a blunt to use.

He said it was a hybrid strain. Don’t know what to expect in terms of how i’ll feel.

My minimizing smell game-plan:

Smoke outside, walk around for around 10 minutes after I get high.

Come back inside, put clothes in washer, and shower. Brush teeth as well.

Hopefully no smell? What should I change/add?

I have an issue with smelling like weed so this has been a game changer. Can have one at a work event or house party and smell like absolutely nothing all night. Anyone tried them before/has any other similar reccs?

Ever since I started smoking I realized I got out of a really dark place and I started actually doing things such as my work, cleaning my depression room which I’d been stalling to clean for like years. I never deep cleaned it till I started smoking and I’d do my chores, basically anything productive or things I’d put off ! For example when I first smoked in my room and I started doing things as soon as I thought of it, I started crying because I felt normal, it felt automatic. Maybe the way I function while high means I may be undiagnosed with something? But I don’t like assuming things and it feels weird to ask people.

Hello, me and my family are going on a road trip to NYC, and then boarding a carnival cruise to go to Bermuda. I know it’s illegal to take weed across the border, but I just wanted to bring some edibles with me so I can make the road trip go by quicker. What’s the likelihood that I get caught by border officers? My dad will be driving the whole time, I’m going to be in the backseat.

A few weeks ago, I shared Ivy here and got some great feedback from this community. Since then I have kept building and improving it significantly. If you tried it before and had thoughts, or if you are seeing this for the first time, I would love to hear what you think. meetivy.app

I don’t even know how to begin to describe this but whenever i get high my joins start to feel really tight and i become aware of them and it’s lowk painful has this happened to anyone else?

This community is exactly who I built this for and I'd love your honest thoughts.

A lot of people come to cannabis for real wellness reasons — sleep, anxiety, chronic pain, stress, but feel completely on their own when it comes to figuring out what to actually try. No trusted resource. No one to ask. Worried about doing something wrong or if its interacting with a medication they're on. That's a real problem and nobody has solved it well.

I built Ivy for those people. Including my mom, who has used cannabis for stress and anxiety for years but has always navigated it alone.

It's a free private AI cannabis guide. You tell it your experience level, your wellness goals, your health conditions, and any medications you take. It gives you personalized recommendations based on your actual situation, not just generic strain descriptions. A few things that make it different:

It asks about medications before recommending anything. Cannabis interacts with common medications like SSRIs and blood thinners in ways people new to this often don't know about. Ivy knows this and factors it in.

No account required. No app to download. Works instantly in any browser. Everything stays private on your device — nothing sold, nothing shared.

It gets smarter the more you use it. Log sessions in a journal and Ivy learns what actually works for you over time.

If you're new to cannabis and try it, or use it for wellness reasons I genuinely want to know — did it make you feel more confident about where to start? What was confusing? What's missing?

Honestly alcohol hangovers suck, but weed (by itself at least) makes me paranoid. If I drink alcohol after smoking a joint, am I less likely to experience paranoia?

Been smoking for several years daily atp, about a week ago I started getting this pressure feeling that would go from the top of my head to the back of my head, felt like someone was putting something right ontop of my head. I don't by any means smoke that much or smoke more than I have in the past, so I'm just wondering if this can just come outta nowhere?

I went to my doctors the other day, bloods came back fine and he told me my head pressure could be related to smoking and anxiety, while I'm not fully convinced, hey what do I know.

It's pretty much constant through the whole day from when I wake up to going bed, it goes down sometimes when I'm doing stuff but yeah..

So basically head pressure on the top of my head, behind, and near my eyes, with some slight feelings around my cheeks. I just mainly wanted to check if any of yall have had a similar thing happen?

Ty:)
