A lot of folks around here do this. However, with the new possibilities of modernization, many are switching to things like topicals (no psychoactive effects).
We have friends in the area with a child they used to have to have TONS and TONS of leaf to be able to benefit as much as now being able to purchase a little pen with gel in it that they simple put on his skin.
Yes. Juicing is awesome and super beneficial. But it's pretty difficult to grow that much green... unless you know a guy running a grow who doesn't want his leaves.
To be clear, the leaves they often juice are the shade leaves that don't really have any 'crystals' on them and noone really wants them for anything... except those making the Rick Simposon oil (what I was speaking of before). That stuff is amazing!
Keep posting and spreading awareness. We may save a life or two. 😉

Nice to meet you. Followed.
Very good to know; thanks for the comment!
I usually buy a LB of shake leaf from a grower for $100, to make RS oil; so I can juice it first, seems to me..
I found the curation group today; got the invite, I heard you might be in CA too?
Yes. I think you can juice it first before making it into RS oil... I think. I'd have to ask someone more in the know. I've personally never done it.
I live in Colorado. I prefer mountains to ocean. 😉
Maybe I'll see ya in the chat. 😍
No question in my mind; it will simply reduce the amount of oil collected, if you juice it first.
I think the "Life Force Energy" of juicing raw plant material, plus the raw CBDs should be a great alternative to oil, and for someone fighting cancer, just one more way to make the nutrients available to the body.
Leaves are very high in CBDs and there will still be plenty of THC present as well in both the juice and the oil.
