A spliff can serve as one of the most powerful tools in your self care arsenal when paired with artisan intentional herbal blends. First, to understand this, let’s look at the entourage effect of plants compounds. The Entourage effect is what occurs when different plant compounds like terpenes, THC, or CBD, combine together to create an effect greater than what they’d produce on their own.
For example, in the SUN blend some prominent terpenes are: Pinene, Myrcene, Farnesene, Bisabolol, Linalool, Terpinolene, Nerol, Buddlindeterpen, Sesquiterpenes. The stress relief and detoxing effects of the Sun blend are amplified by adding CBD or THC dominant flower. We are going to show you how to roll intentional spliffs masterfully every time.
Step 1: You’ll need all your tools; Your intentional herbal blend, SUN in this case, Cannabis flower, rolling papers, an herb grinder, OCB hemp paper filters, and a mechanical spliff roller (the secret weapon).
Step 2: Place a three finger pinch of cannabis into your herb grinder and twist until you are satisfied.
Step 3: Place a three finger pinch of your herbal blend into your herb grinder and twist until you are satisfied.
Step 4: Mix your ground herbs inside the mechanical roller tray.
Step 5: Remove a sheet of rolling paper, push a finger rolling ribbon to create a recess.
Step 6: While holding the ribbon in place, place the edge of the rolling paper to bottom of the recess with the seal at the top facing you.
Step 7: Add a filter to your preference of the left or right side while holding the recess in place.
Step 8: Add your herbal spliff blend to fill the rest of the recess.
Step 9: Slowly begin to close the mechanical roller at a controlled speed.
Step 10: Stop half way through and lick the sealant.
Step 11: Close the roller completely and your spliff is ready.
Step 12: Check to make sure the sealant is consistently adhered to the paper and enjoy.
This is a very touchy subject since the number one fear is the law taking your child away. Two conversations are happening simultaneously: Using Cannabis while pregnant and Children using Cannabis.
Much credit is due to the Cannabis plant for inspiring the formulation of our blends.
Raised in NYC, Cannabis was always around me: the streets, the buildings, the friends, the schools and the news. It wasn’t till my late 20’s that I actually stopped calling it “MJ”. During this deeper understanding of the plant kingdom, Cannabis became alive to me as well as all the other plants around me. In my household, many different plants/roots/mushrooms are used daily but Cannabis is definitely the one mostly smoked.
From many People of Color in New York, Cannabis legalization is more then just another tax commodity. It is the end of decades of cannabis prohibition that has affected millions.
“Over the last twenty years, the enforcement of marijuana prohibition has devastated communities across the state of New York. It has been a tool for the hyper-criminalization of young people of color and has been the justification for unconstitutional policing practices.”
Baby its cold (and stressful) outside, so why not come in for some PEACE Hemp-derived Hot Coco.
Plants have literally overtaken our lives, from our food, to our medicine to everything day to day. So its no surprise that the recipes we try at home become such a great hit with our audience.
The Dropping Seeds mission is to make a case for ancient healing that came thousands of years before modern medicine.
The Dropping Seeds mission is to push the benefits of medicinal and sacred plants over pharmaceuticals, making a case for ancient healing that came thousands of years before modern medicine. Essentially, they seek to return the knowledge of the plant kingdom back into our cells and psyche, to expand the practice of healing in a way that’s gentler, more natural to our bodies. It makes sense. With more people demanding more wholesome products in our food — often reflected in the transparent use of only a few ingredients — it’s only a matter of time before the same movement happens for medicine.
If you dig around, you can see this shift in self-healing is starting to happen. People are looking for wellness alternatives: tinctures, medicinal teas, elixirs, herbal ointments, and aromatherapy. Fortunately, Dropping Seeds can help people build that bridge to the sometimes overwhelming plant world. Because, when they do, they’ll discover empowering tools that expand beyond the boundaries of cannabis.
How Medicinal Plants started?
Not surprisingly, the idea for the company came to Johanna in a plant ceremony. According to her husband, SirRoan, “this isn’t the first time this has happened for Johanna, things always come through.” A few years ago, while in a deep, mind-expanding ayahuasca ceremony, she was downloaded the Dropping Seeds mission. Not only that, but the logo design, the names of the blends, the branding elements, and colors too! It came through so powerfully and so clear, it set her on a new purpose. So, she convinced SirRoan to join her, leaving a full-time design career to focus on plants. A few months later, Dropping Seeds was born.
“The Earth wants you to enjoy it. It enjoys you.”
I hope you enjoy Johanna & SirRoan’s story! These blends are designed to bring you closer to the earth – and to yourself – through medicinal reawakening. Below, you can find a description of all the herbal blends they’ve handcrafted and designed to help shift your state into a space that is more healing. You can smoke them, make teas, even bathe in them. In the future, they plan to work with more cocktail specialists, chefs, and recipe developers to customize menus and drinks towards healing. There is so much you can do with plants. I highly recommend you begin exploring these yourself. They also make great gifts for loved ones or co-workers for the holidays!

As the laws concerning Cannabis keep changing and evolving, we dove deep to understand the current **NEW LEGAL STATUS** for New York.
The plant Cannabis can be considered one of the most popular plants of the century. To start, Cannabis was used in every medicinal cabinet of America in the late 1800’s. The government even handed out Cannabis seeds for USA farmers to grow the crop due to its multi-use from medicine to fabric. Increased restrictions and labeling of cannabis as a poison began in many states from 1906 onward, by the mid-1930s cannabis was regulated as a drug in every state.

CBD is in everything. From dog treats to human treats, you can find a CBD product, projected to be a $22 billion market by 2022. But what exactly is this miracle three letters and its cousin THC? Well the truth is: this Cannabis family is larger then just two compounds.
CBD is a compound that is created when the plant Cannibis sativa is burned, boiled or vaporized. In this process of heat, oils seep out, that contain more then 100 compounds (many more yet to be “discovered”).
