Yep, just saw that one and went for it, give it a go and see how it is. Thanks for your help... Both bottles just arrived. One thing that shocked me was I thought there'd be no smell to it, but it smells just like weed. Anyway, poured it into a 30 ml bottle, topped that up with 20ml of my juice and see how it goes... Keep us posted with how you get on. Cheers Neil

Yeah just done a search bit couldn't really find the answers I wanted. A few questions I need answers to are: 1) A 10ml bottle with a strength of 200mg what does that mean? 2) Would you just put that into a tank and vape it as it is or can you dilute it down with PG/VG to make more mls? As 10ml at 200mg is like 30 quid, and I can vape at least 15 ml of regular juice a day so something don't seem right if you just vape it like normal juice.... 3) how often do you vape it in a day? Is it just a few puffs (vapes) off your tank a day? 1) 200mg total in the bottle. 2) 200mg is not really that strong, I'd vape it in a dripper, with some added juice. I use Satijah 500mg original hemp, brilliant stuff, now rebranded as Harmony. Strong enough to add 10-20drops to 10ml of vg/pg and vape that. 3) First thing in the morning for back pain, maybe some later if required.

I'm sure that he will find it reassuring that you (presumably) feel that you get benefit for your back pain at the dose you take.

Seems like the advice (not here) I was given was off by miles. I was told that 3-4 puffs would knock out a 120kg bloke, I'm 91kg. Tried it yesterday evening. Used it as is, 6 puffs from a K2 tank. Nothing happened Mild taste, a bit like the original (not that I would know how that tastes ) quite pleasant. I used about 0.2ml out of this tank. So where did I go wrong? Do I need to finish that tank (1.8ml) for it to kick in? I should add that I was the occasional Friday evening at home user and the last time was 12-14 years ago so there’s certainly no tolerance build up.

Same place it seems. Well, I tried (carefully) it pure and nothing happened, but tonight won't be that hesitant.

Ok, sorry -V-, you'd then have 500mg total CBD in 30ml, = 16.7mg /ml CBD eliquid

A 10ml bottle of 500mg CBD is 50mg/ml CDB strength, you have diluted it to 16.7mg/ml. To get a given dose (mg) you'd just have to vape more of the diluted eliquid compared to vaping undiluted. From Andi53's comments, he makes a less strong CBD eliquid (he only adds 10-20 drops of the 50mg/ml CDB to 10ml of PG/VG, if I read correctly) and presumably believes that it is beneficial for his back. But from what (little) I know about the subject, everyone is different.

^ that calculation means that I get a mere 15mg if I vape 1.6ml from the tiny k2’s 1.8ml. That really doesn’t seem much. I’ll keep trying.

A 15mg dose of some pharmaceuticals is a lot.... it just depends on the pharmaceutical. I don't know enough about CBD (and don't use it either) to say whether or not 15mg is likely to be a low or high dose.

I don't know if this helps explain -V- . . . . it confused me, think I need to read it a few times more. www.buyhempcbdoil.com/how-to-calculate-cbd-content/Reading the ad from where you've purchased, it states ' 10ML CBD OIL 500mg 5% ' . . . . . so I'd imagine it's not dissimilar to nicotine base in the way the actual strength is determined. But that's guesswork on my part. *-SARIN-* I'm sure would make a far better job of explaining!
