Welcome to Cannabis School. I'm your host, Jesse Angeles. And I'm Brandon Elder. And we're here to talk to you about everything pertaining to cannabis from vape flower edibles. Strains. And everything in between. Hey kids, welcome back to another episode. Today we're going to be talking about melanade and Gelato 41. This comes from us from This is
one of the last products that we got from Story Arizona. 1/2. 1/2 story Yeah, we do. We we have a little bit more, but one of the last ones this this is a fantastic strain cultivar is Fateco. Yep. And they are fantastic. But before I go any further, we want to thank our Patreon followers and our Patreon members. Thank you guys so much for you. Because of you, we're continuing to be able to grow.
We're continuing to be able to produce more things and being able to reach out to more people just like you. We appreciate it so much because it just, it means a lot. Like even a dollar coming to us, it's you believe in us that much, you're going to give us a dollar. That's pretty freaking cool. So, but on top of that Brandon,
we have had this cool device. This is a fantastic device for at least probably a month or so, which has given us time to play around with it. And this is something that you and I were discussing even before hopping on here, that this is the perfect device for every medical state, but also for every state in general, because this is the perfect dosing device for anyone who is getting new into cannabis.
Absolutely. And you know one thing especially for brand new consumers to cannabis, two places they usually go one, gummies, big mistake. And two is carts. Now that can be a mistake. And I think that's where a lot of people don't realize that that's an easy way to green out is with a cart. You would think so with flour, but flour's a lot easier to come down from. It's not as high of a percentage usually. So it's in.
You're getting more of the wide range of terpenes, so your entourage effect is more complete, like the whole experience is better. So this, this is the mode battery and this allows you to dose from 1 milligram to five for each hit. So we're doing a giveaway. Go ahead and find the go on Instagram. If you're a Patreon member, go to Patreon, comment on the post, let tag a friend, go ahead and follow mode to be entered in the
giveaway. Yeah, this is by one of the craziest things about this product is when you take that hit, even if you're going up to five, very little comes out, which makes you think how much are you taking in a cart hit. When you see this big old cloud, like you're not taking the tiny amount that you think you are, you're thinking you're only taking maybe 2.5 milligrams. But on this, that shows you and
it's so accurate. Yeah, get, you know, put in for it. And the reason why I was saying that is like, if you're new to the show, cool, then this is a great way for you to be able to try carts. So you can do half gram carts. Don't go buy a full gram if you don't have to. We're a third. There's even 1/3 of a gram cart. Tiny little carts, you could put it into here. This is gonna help you. And being able to get that proper dose, it's all electronic. It's swipe.
It's literally a touch screen. Yeah, there's little touch buttons in it that you just kind of swipe. It's. So cool, yeah. But if you don't need it for, you get it. For somebody that you know, who's just absolutely excited about getting into cannabis, but they're a little skittish and they need a little help, this is a great product for that. Yeah, perfect entry. Perfect for anyone getting into cannabis because it really lets you control that experience to
the dose that you actually need. Yeah, which is always goes along with our mantra low and slow. Like if you can go low and slow, you're going to get, you're going to get such a better experience. Not everybody is open to flour. We get that eventually you will come over to the light side, but it is. To the green side. Get to the green side, but it is one of the one of our one of the coolest products we've been able to run into.
It's decently priced, but if you don't want to buy it, I totally get it. Enter in for the giveaway. We'll get that sent to you. We'll have all the details in the links. Yeah. And Speaking of super cool products, we are trying out this melanade in Gelato 41 and obviously our favorite bong, the jet filter system. Jet filtration systems. One of the best bongs we have ever tried, if not the best hard
press. Now I do see that there are other companies that are like them, but this is the only one that reached out to us that was able to hook us up. There's more like. This, yeah, there's different. Ones that are indestructible. There's. Indestructible ones, but they don't have this particular. Car where you pull it down and no. That's the coolest standard bowls. Standard everything. Which, there's nothing wrong with it. A lot of them look like glass,
and a lot of them are glass. They're like this tempered glass that won't break. But I still feel like there's a point that that would break though. I watched one dude like tank bongs or I don't know, what the hell. They are OK. Yeah, I've heard of Tank. Throwing them against the ground. What? Driving over them? Holy cow. Same thing with this though. I've watched that. I've watched the video. I saw them throw it down, but I could you drive over this I'm pretty sure like I'm.
Pretty sure the. Plastic would chatter. No, I don't think so. The, the, the thing I think. We're not gonna try. It no, we're definitely not gonna try it. But the thing that I really like about this one is just one of the percolators in there to the bowl is fantastic. The airflow, everything with this one is awesome. Plus, you know what? I I hate to say this, but glass bong, indestructible bong. It's just a bong. This isn't like just taking any bong. This is totally different.
No this. Is like the smoothest experience that we have found? Yeah, so. But anyways, without further ado on that note, this time you need to go my friend first. So Melanie Gelato 41. This is a hybrid. I think it's more indica leaning if I'm not mistaken, but at the percentage on this one, what would this be at? So this is at a 2626.57% THC, 29.29% THCA which yeah, in here nor there no CBD whatsoever in this. The really cool thing is or. CBN or CBG? Yeah, there's nothing else in
that. No minors, yeah. But the terpene profiles are pretty cool. We've got Beta, Carafilene, Lemonine and what was the last one? I'm definitely getting beta carophiline. Yeah, that coffin. Little lol. So you've got one. It's more of a sedative feel. So that's where you're getting your Gelato there. You're feeling. You're gonna get a lot of the the slight pain relief that you're gonna get from a lot of different, more indica leaning
strains. It sounds like it's more of a sativa leaning strain and they're, I mean beta carophilin is the highest, which is more of the safety pain. Balanced hybrid right now like I do feel it in my face, but instantly I feel it also in my body. It's very peppery smelling. Too goodness, yeah, it is a very black pepper. Like very peppery in my throat. Definitely what made me cough. But yeah, I I get some of the lemon in a little. I'm not really getting citrusy
notes yet. Maybe in the second hit you'll get some of those citrusy notes. Definitely peppery, but not too bad on the second it. Really wasn't too bad. It was just this is the first time I've smoked today, so, you know, warming up. Yeah, it does say it's a hybrid. I feel it more on the backside of my head than I do the front. Yeah, I definitely. So peppery as all can be really hits you in the back of the throat, but it not necessarily a
bad way. The way that I would, I kind of like associate this with would be like going to like a really good steakhouse where that steak comes out just roasted in pepper, corn and salt and that hit like you're eating and you get that those salty flavors from it. But at the end where the pepper hits you in the back of the throat and just stays there, this is that. I don't get a lot of citrusy notes even though it's got lemonine in there and linolol lemonine, but that that kind of
nice. I I'm definitely feel it in the head, relaxed. Yeah. Like an overall, even not heavy relaxation, but just like a mild relaxation across the body. Yeah, my head's pretty clear. It's almost like a pretty clear. It's not like incredibly like perfectly clear focused, but it's just like a light dusting across my mind. I I don't feel like I'm slow. I'm a little slow, but it not necessarily in a bad way. Would I want to use this during the daytime?
Probably not. Not doing something productive. I wouldn't want to do this and I found with this strain now I've I've had I've had this several times or the way that I describe it is the I don't really want to fucking do anything strange. Like it just makes you feel like you know it's like those commercials that they would the joke drug commercials where they would say you know you got your kids flipping out and works and you just take fuck it all. Like this is fuck it all it
really makes you. It's not necessarily slow but it doesn't you're not going to be really tolerant. That's one thing I found with this strain is that I'm not very tolerant with things that I find stupid. Interesting. Yeah, it. It's kind of AI. Don't know why I'm going here. It's like true Lies. You remember you ever say that movie True Lies was Arnold Schwarzenegger? No, probably not dude. One of the funniest movies.
But there's a part where they give him a truth agent and he just, he can't stop saying the truth. So he gets a shot and he goes, that's sodium mammotol, right. You should swab that. I could get an infection And they and they give him an injection and then he's like telling his, well, I won't ruin it for you, but it makes me think of that. This is like a truth agent, I don't think a really deep conversation with somebody that you might have a little bit of disagreements with.
'Cause you might just be incredibly blunt. Unless they are on it too, I think this is a great strain to hash out a problem that you might have with somebody or if something has come up between you 2 Whether it's like a friendship, a business relationship, your romantic relationships, It's a great strain to sit down and talk going hey. So this is a deep discussion. This is a deep discussion without any gloves, so I have found on this strain that I don't hold back.
So what I do is I shut the fuck up and I just dive into my phone and I just criticized that one. This makes me critical, which is very strange. Interesting. Beta beta Carophiline has that kind of effect on me where I feel a little bit more critical, not necessarily in a negative way, like going, oh you're wrong because, but just by being able to dissect something, this is a great thing to learn on, to
really pull it apart. Like if you wanted to get in, like I can't stand Neil deGrasse Tyson, I think he's a fucked. I hate him just because not only are you just ignorant in so many ways, I've never. Arrogant. Yeah, arrogant and ignorant at the same time, right? But I I will say that I would be able to tolerate listening to his theories on this because I'm not my overly excited, but I'm also not really sedated. Yeah, no, it's just like relaxed, but. It's kind of nice though.
Yeah. Suck it all. So maybe don't take this before going into that meeting with your boss where you tell them off, unless that's really just what needs to happen, in which case, smoke the whole bowl. You know, I thought of Kyle. I know it sounds weird. I always bring up Kyle. Yeah, we just know Kyle and learn a lot about his life and what he does for a living. I could see using this strain to do something like that to doing
landscaping. He owns a landscaping company out there in Texas and I would imagine if I worked for Kyle, this would be a great strain. This would be a great, I mean, it's Texas, so you know, it's Texas, but a pan of us and all that. But I would say like this is a great, like just doing chores, doing stuff. Manual labor would be good with this.
'Cause I feel like that little bit of relaxation, like you said, good for pain I feel this morning, I my back actually really hurt, and this is kind of taking that sharpness out, not all of it, but most of my back. I've actually found that my neuropathy in my feet, 'cause my blood sugars are doing much better now. Last night before I went to bed, 185 Crazy. Dude, they haven't.
Been 185 and I don't know how long and in the morning like in the one 20s which is like top tier for anybody else. But for me, that's like, that's a that's amazing. That's where I want to be. And I'll tell you though, the neuropathy, it just comes and goes. And with this, it has dulled it, 'cause my feet always feel like they're on, like like on fire. And no, I don't have athlete's foot, but it feels like it's just this constant pain, like your back. It's not necessarily like I
can't work. But if it's a burning, that would still be like it sucks. Painful, Irritating like. Maybe. Constant I don't. Feel it right now. Yeah, like. I've noticed that. I tell I'll take this strain at night when I'm just done like I I'm, I'm sore after the gym. This is a great strain after a strong workout 'cause you're still able to do shit, and it gives you the right amount of cottonmouth to want to drink more water, 'cause that's absolutely necessary while you're working out.
I definitely feel dry mouth with this and of course we can always try this. Lubber City. Lubber City, dude. Lubber City is fantastic. It is. Minted flavor? Yeah, it's at least this one. They also send us a strawberry one, and then they're unflavored. One that they had first sent out. The mint's OK. It's weird. It just doesn't shoot straight in your mouth. Shot back out. It it goes like this it it goes like wide you know and but I mean despite the.
It reminds me of Aloe right now. Yeah, it reminds me of like some type of Lube. That's what it reminds me of. And strawberry flavored Lube just doesn't sound great. I mean it's just like. I don't know. Put it on your nipples and see. I'll. Do it. But, but I'll tell you though, it's really good because especially when you get these Cottonmouth strains like this one. I'm not clicking yet, but you can get clicking pretty quickly with this string. Oh, that feels much better.
Oh yeah, that's solid. Definitely worth trying out. I think they're gonna they messaged saying they could get us a code, so if this is something you're interested, we'll put a link in the show notes and check it out. It's it's not very expensive, It's pretty cheap. I think it was pretty cheap actually, yeah. The It's if you are a frequent cannabis consumer, Lubber City. Yeah, get Lubber City. Even if you're not like, I think the dry mouth can be one of the most irritating things with
cannabis. Well that and for new consumers, I think the anxiety and that that can come from certain strains and not understanding dosing and too much or. I take it back. That's the best. Really. Yeah, no, it's not bad at all. Better than the mint, you think? Way better than the Mint. What? All right, that's dope. I was not expecting, 'cause that's the way my mom is like, 'cause it's just the it's the consistency. It's really off for me, right? Yeah.
It literally feels like putting like, like a gel substance in my mouth. You're saying aloe and I I'm. I'm thinking like Lube, Like it's just like like it's not something I want to consume. Like, it has its purpose, right? Yeah, but man, this is really good. I'll have to try the strawberry next time. Yeah, make sure you rub it all inside your mouth and it'll hit every part that's dry. And that's that's fantastic.
I mean, even though I need to drink more water, I'm, I'm still down with it for mild pain relief. This is fantastic. I think you're right. I do think this is not a daytime strain for people. This is the end of the week, the end of the day. Like you're done working. Your kids went to bed. Fuck it all. Yeah, you're like, you know what? I'm going to chill. I'm going to relax. I'm going to get rid of this pain in my back, my feet, my, you know, whatever.
And I'm just going to chill. I actually watched a movie on this. It's called The Highwaymen with Kevin Costner and Woody Harrelson, and it was about the guys who took down Bonnie and Clyde and real guys, and I thoroughly enjoyed that movie on this train. It was fantastic. I was so relaxed and I just it it helps you to kind of focus on the oh, what's that Just a lot just kept going. Just always a little bit more, yeah. No, but it it's really relaxing,
even even really good before. Like, you know, there are some strains like the couch log strains, and some people use those going to bed on and to help them get to sleep. This is a nice one, 'cause it doesn't feel like you're getting, you know, chloroformed, 'cause there are some strains that straight up like banana Kush for me, Alaskan Thunder fuck. Oh my God. Slapped the face. Yeah dude, which is weird 'cause
that's a sativa one. But looking at the it's got a lot of mirror scene in it and I'm just like oh whoa, no wonder why I am putting down from that. But the beta? Carefully in the amount that's in there. It's a good amount. And it's just a dusting of the lentilol and lemonade. The lemonade before the lentilol. There's no tightness in the chest at this strain. It's very nice. You feel it in the back and in your head.
I could even see it. Right more to I felt it like behind my eyes for a minute I was like, holy cow. Looking at him right now, he's he's, you can see it, it's it's starting to hit my eyes. They're always slanted, so you can't tell. Yeah, I was like, holy cow after that. I mean, not last. It was bigger anyway, but there was instantly like an additional layer of relaxation just coming in. Like, all right, bro, here, let's get in where it missed.
Yeah, I imagine this strain going over you like a like a wave of like, light just goes, yeah, over all your curves of your body. That's how it feels. It just goes through bro. I ain't got curves. I'm a fucking stick. Well, I know, but I mean, you know, even even the curves of your stick. Right in the wind. Like I am. I just feel it in my arms, but just really lightly. It's nice, not heavy anywhere, just a but it's not it. It. I wouldn't recommend going on a
drive with this. No, I could go do something, but I'm like, honestly, this is the type of strain that you don't really. I don't feel like you really want to go do much of things. It's more of like hang out. Fuck it all. Like if you legit like, let's say we're going into a perfect world. You don't have anything on your weekend plans. There's a show you've been wanting to watch. There's some snacks you've been wanting to get after.
This is the type of strain that you want loaded up in your bong or in a cart if you got it in the cart, which I'd think Fade Co would absolutely does than a Kart hopefully, I would imagine so. I hope so. They've got great karts. I really enjoyed. Like they're live resin ones, yeah. They're fantastic. Lovely experience, yeah. But I will say that this is a great strain to get caught up on
doing absolutely nothing. Yes. How many of us don't do that, don't take that time, it's go, go, go. But you know when it's the weekend and some stuff is getting, I mean, unless you're like a pest control person, like, I get it. I get. Sales Rep yeah. Yeah, you gotta go. But man, if you don't and you're not giving yourself time, this is a really good one for that Gelato 41 and. Slow life down. This will do it for you. Yeah, it slows everything down.
You just don't fucking. Care. Yeah. And I feel like I've been so much of the last couple months constantly trying to do, do, do and I haven't really sat down and played games as much or the same and and so like even last night when we played it was way nice, but I was like, oh shit, I haven't done this in a while. It feels like so. No, I I've taken a few days off.
Like last night I played and then when you got off I played a little bit more and I was just like, yeah, I'm just going to do it. I played till like midnight. And this would have been the perfect strain for that you just. Play. You don't. I feel that a lot of times, even when we play games, sometimes you can get stressed out. Like, what game for us? Gran Turismo 7? Oh, it's awesome. But it's like a dense. Yeah, like. We're serious. We're like. Not talking. Always like this I. Know.
Just getting a little bit of a. Destroys me by like half a mile or something. Like what? But it it's it's those games like you, you know when. And it's even worse when we're racing against other people, like this is something that's supposed to be chill. Yeah, I'm incredibly anxious, but I could play this where I wouldn't care about. I would be just into the
experience. I did that the other day a couple weeks ago with that one, and for me, at that moment it felt more like the Forza Horizon forward. It was just like cruising fast through like really pretty stuff. And I was like, Oh yeah, this feels like. This is, this is fantastic for that. Like the more it sets in, the more it's behind my eyes. Interesting. I could, I could easily. This is nice for those who want some type of strain to help them with sleep.
Like I know a lot of them will just pump tons of CBN into this shit and it doesn't necessarily work that way. It can help. I think yeah, this could work for sleep. I really, yeah. But it's a nice gentle like if. It's relaxing enough. Yeah, where you're not, like, thinking like I've got to go to sleep. But it's not the mind racing kind of strain, it's even like mind relaxing. So it's it is like an overall relaxation across everything.
Yeah, this would be great for those who struggle with ADHD. Like I saw the funniest damn video Where was Plank that goes what it's like in your mind? Did you say the? Plank. And did I say plank? I don't know. I thought you said Plank and all that popped in my head is the little board from Ed, Ed and Eddie like. See, this is what this strain
does. No, no, I I I I saw this this video of this guy talking about where what it's like in an ADHD person brain when they try to fall asleep and it's playing like I I all the Single Ladies from Destiny's Child. But then it just like plays like a segment of it, and then it skips to another one. And then it just repeats that one tiny area that's like 2 seconds long over and over and
over. And it's like when I saw that video I was like, that's why I've got, I've got earbuds in my ear every mid middle of the night. If I do wake up, it's because one of my earbuds Airpods disconnected is in my back. It's like digging into my back. And I got to put it out because I I need something to drown out the ideas and the noise. Oh yeah, this gets rid of the noise if you are struggling with sleep and also just turning off your brain. Anxiety, stress, depression.
This would be great for that, yeah. Anxiety. Damn, dude. 'Cause it kills those like constant stressful thoughts and like the mind racing and that. Yeah, you just don't fuck it all. Yeah, that's why this one's called I when I my wife's like I need something to just get rid of everything. I don't. I don't. I just want to relax. This is perfect for that. Yeah. Come with me. I got you, babe.
Come. On now let's go outside and that's what we did and it was she was and then I asked her like 5-10 minutes later she we're in bed together. I'm thinking around on my phone and she's reading her book and she's and I said how you doing? She goes slower. Good. Yeah, she's just let it go. And so great mental health strain. I agree. I mean, and it's getting near the end of winter, but you're probably like many of us are still in that seasonal depression thing.
This is perfect for coming out of that funk. And it's also tax season. Oh yeah, so another line of stress. So just have some melanate in Gelato 41. Yeah, or just don't pay your taxes. I'm not sure if that decreases the stress or increases the stress. Fuck it all. Just smoke this. You're good, dude. Taxes. Melon age a lot of 41. What? What? Taxes. Like it's it's it's just really got like the more it sets in, just be known that. I mean, if you're trying to fall
asleep, this is a good strain. This is a really good strain. It's a very casual, relaxing strain, slow onset, no heart palpitations whatsoever, no tightness in the chest. I feel it in my back, but it's not a lot. It's really chill. Oh, you. Mean you feel tightness in your back or you feel like the relaxation? Just a little tightness in my back upper, like across my shoulder blades from shoulder
blade to shoulder. See, I thought I already had that from like last night and this morning, but I feel attention right in there. But that's why I was like. And the more that you talk about it, the tighter it gets. So you just stop focusing on one thing. Just find something to not do. Like, just give yourself a break. Can't have the strain? Enjoy it. It's worth it. Yeah, this is fantastic. We've only tried it in flour. If you've tried Vedco products such as like a vape cart, we'd
like to know about that. Or if you found melanade Gelato from any other like cultivar, do you guys have it on the east? I'm pretty sure there's Story out on the East Coast as well because Story is a brand that is found in a good handful of states here. So for all our East Coast listeners, I actually like, yeah, this is a fantastic relaxing one. I feel like it's been a minute since I've had just this peaceful, nice mind relaxing but body relaxing too without being in my mind.
Like, I don't feel like I've been slow down, just my mind isn't racing. But like there's a difference, I feel like, in that versus being slow. Yeah, I I agree. I it's it's just, I don't know it's like a it's like a fog, but it's not. It's slow, but it's not. It's it's just like that blanket. I feel like a weighted blanket for your mind. Yeah, that's a good analogy. Because my mind is still able to function.
I don't feel like I my thoughts are slow, but it's slowed down all the normal racing and mumbo jumbo of all the unimportant shit. And so it's kind of like a weighted blanket for the mind that it's like, hey, just calm down, you're OK. That's kind of why I don't like the the interaction at first with other people. This has to set in. And honestly, the reason why I said earlier about this just kind of, I don't, I don't want
to, like, deal with bullshit. If somebody came to me complaining about something that was just ridiculous, like first world problems, I'd be like, yeah, I really don't want to talk about that right now. Just let's do something else. Let's do something that's a little bit more positive. Like I I wouldn't enjoy watching a comedian on this or listening to one because I'm just in a such a mellow state. But I would. I'd love to. Learn stuff about like, history. The guy who does the Winnie the
Pooh voice doing it right. Yeah. Like. Talk. About ancient Sumeria and all the wonderful things. See, for me that would be way too slow and I would play it on double speed in order to listen to it because I'm like. I get that. I get that. But you got to savor it. I don't go so damn fast. I I struggle with that. Everything I listen to is at least like 1.5. Not on this.
Because I'm just like, I can't. My mind has too much time between their words, and so if my mind has that much time, I will get pulled off on a tangent and I'll start thinking about something else weird. Yeah. So when it's like I'm sitting there listening and it's like, OK. They seem to listen to double speed too and. That and I'm like, Oh my gosh, it's weird. If I'm learning, I like it going faster. When I'm in absorbing, I don't. Yes, same I and if I'm absorbing like it.
Really, I love learning at double speed because I can go OK cool, but if I'm absorbing and like really trying to ingrain. I need to see. It I have, I have to go back and go back at normal speed or like 1.2 instead of double speed and then I'm like all right, so and then I'm sitting and reading it as I'm listening, like I'm truly trying to ingrain it in my mind.
It's very different than just trying to learn something, but most learning I do at double speed because my mind will get bored and get distracted with like the time that I have between their words to the next words. I'm like, right, speed it up, come on, chop chop. I don't have time for this. I could do that. Man, I I really. Oh man, this is good. I like this this. Is really good. I wish we had more of this. Yeah, it's a a really nice, just
chill, calm. But yeah, I could I I could like, dude, seriously, that's what I thought about all the time. I thought of that guy who does the Winnie the Pooh voice. And you know what if he was, like narrating something over there. Brandon takes a hit from his favorite bong, like hearing a voice like. That Speaking of Speaking of favorite bong this bong, do you remember what one it was? There was some episode that we had actually put out. Nate. Oh, I took a picture of it.
Hang on. Oh yeah, I remember. I remember hearing the names there was like. Four different names. So yeah, The minnow smooth operator, James Bong or Bong Marley or Bosh Clay Bong, Bong, Bosh Clay Bong. Bong. What the fuck? Now that's a high thought right there. So if you guys have any other names for, I mean, what was it potentially Moby Dick, potentially Bosch, Clay Bong Bong, James Bong or Bong Marley? Any other names out there for this fantastic piece? Yeah, let us know. Yeah.
That'd be cool. All right. Hey, we don't want to take up too much of your time. We appreciate you being able to stop by. Listen to this, share it with your friends, especially those who are looking for. You know, you got somebody in your life that's man, they're just high strung some of this. Curious about cannabis? Yeah, introduce them to cannabis school. Share it with your friend and. Weighted blanket? Yeah, it's a weighted blanket for your brain. And that sounds fantastic.
We love you guys. Yeah, we'll see you next week. Take care.
