Welcome, Bob. Feel free to pull up a rocking chair.

Welcome, Bob. Feel free to pull up a rocking chair.

I don't think Bob is "rocking chair" old , i would say "pre fossil stage" because his post indicates zero mind disintegration & he is likely to still be a very impressive physical specimen .

One does not have to be "rocking chair old", physically impaired, and/or mentally deficient to appreciate the relaxing benefits of kicking back in a rocking chair. For all we know, he may have had help typing his post.

I just got some HHV Heavenly tobacco 40pg/60vg..I tried to speed steep but I get no flavor,it's only 8 days old tho..I'll let it sit a few weeks and try again..I may have vape tongue??

Welcome!

I started DIY when my last bottle (over 3 years ago) of HHV heavenly tobacco was different (bland) than the previous bottle. I now make my own (NET) heavenly tobacco. It's a little time consuming, and a lengthy (4-6 weeks) steeping required, but very easy and well worth the effort.

If you're interested, here's some good reading.
