i can smoke, ingest, vaporize weed but when im in my garden and the buds rub up against my arm, i break out in hives where the buds touched me, kinda weird. anyone else??
doesnt surprise me since THC is an irritant - dont trim and rub your eyes or better yet take a piss with THC on your fingers
its why gloves are king - that and its easier to get the hash off gloves then your skin
After years of mixing GH without gloves im now allergic to all things sulphate... Soaps, shampoos, nutes, etc.. Wear gloves when you mix nutes is the moral of the story..
If you're going to be trimming and handling the buds around harvest it might help alleviate the reaction if you take a MILD antihistamine before you get started.
Chances are that is likely to be a chemical or fertilizer used in the growing/treatment of the plant that causes this irritation, as if you are able to ingest it the chances are you are not allergic, although stomach acid may slightly break down the composition of said chemicals. Go figure, hey :)
