It's really interesting that Purple Punch is so high in THC%, considering how mellow it is. I think that really emphasizes the "entourage effect" phenomenon.Definitely... The Punch has to have some of the highest thc of anything I have jarred... Whereas the Sour D is probably the lowest, and makes my head tingle by the second or third hit.
Dont try to be such a fart smellerHow far is New York City from Uranus ?
I guess what stands out for me with this pheno is the smell; the smoothness above all else is unbelievably incredible; and it's just a wonderful clean taste. It's a very rich enjoyable top notch experience; very high quality on so many of it's "experience" attributes; IMO. Something I can sit down and really enjoy the consumption aspect of it.
Should be interesting to see how I've changed it; and if that GDP Gorilla adds or subtracts anything; I know that will certainly be more skunkier on the flipside. Hopefully some of those Thai's made it though; but I'm not sure; that was such a wild plant; I just wonder if it was even a compatible partner; TBH; but only time will tell. Hopefully; if it did make it; it will produce something more cerebral in nature. That missing component; so to speak. Thais will maye early and often;)
It's interesting to see how strains are so differently interpreted; experienced and tolerated. It really does vary bigtime.
I’m almost embarrassed about my tiny little tolerance compared to you guys. I’d be a straight up zombie trying to keep up with you guys. I’ll go find a skirt now and wear it today in shame.![]()
Yes... Looking like the simple RV filter gonna be enough... All the new growth looking good... The holdout plant hadn't been/needed water since implementing.
Right there with you. I cant partake until the evening due to my job and even then its just a couple puffs to provide me some relief.
I'd say better... You have a tolerance more inline with normal consumers.You sound just like me. Does that make us better testers or worse? Wine tasters spit it out so I’m going with better just to save a little dignity
and this skirt is kinda chafing
Bet that was yummy.
I have high hopes you find something nice in those... @StankStirr has some outstanding looking Guava D x HP7 going right now.Mb15 x hp7 in the oven
think they've definitely stratified long enough
I picked some ladies

I've also noticed that my sour strains, by weight, yeild way more in extracts than Punch, even though the frost is so noticeably more abundant on the punch. Those Punch trichomes must all be half-empty. It tests high in THC, but I'd bet its relatively low in total cannabinoids. The sour always dumps. The punch always underwhelms.
Its just another example of how good things take time and how patience pays off. The fast flowering strains just can't get you where the 10+ week strains get you.
I'd have to say I agree with this also.I'd say better... You have a tolerance more inline with normal consumers.

Searching for new grow diaries and I was like damn.. this guy really meant perpetual lol. Awesome stuff man!
The term “set and setting” was introduced by Harvard psychologist Timothy Leary, who argued that psychedelic drugs worked like a magnifying glass on one’s consciousness.I'd have to say I agree with this also.
I do think your tolerance levels are informative no doubt; but they only give us insight into one side of the equation. Gauging tolerance on the lower ends seems just as important as it does in the upper limits. That's probably the #1 concern/complaint I hear from former; occasional or intermediate people who indulge.
Most drinkers don't go into a bar and line up shots of moonshine; most tend to order a beer; a wine; or something more mild. If they do; they often have some lingering regret afterwards.
One man's meat is another man's poison...
I don't think cannabis is much different TBH. It's also makes a strong argument for preservation of early forks; and ancient lines. Preservation of landraces; ect. Personally; I don't think having a Panama Red would be quite the same consistently "stellar" experience for me now; as it was back in mid 1970's; my bodies physiology has certainly changed over time. On the flip side; it's certainly something I would still consider very much interesting; and a good starting point. At least from a breeding standpoint.
Agree with everything stated here. Although I would argue that not all "entourage effect" is created equally. I think; possibly things like THCP; CBDP (and yet undiscovered; or unidentified compounds) are playing a key role.... in high "cerebral" effects. ie. The lower forms (of THC/Terpenes) have a body effect; the higher evolved forms are able to cross the blood/brain barrier more efficiency via the endocannabinoid system pathways...
For instance: Seven-link alkyl side chains: tetrahydrocannabiphorol (THCP) and cannabidiphorol (CBDP). verses THC, for example, has a five-link alkyl side chain. The newly-discovered compound, THCP, binds as much as 33 times more strongly to cannabinoid receptors than does THC, according to the study. Or even THCO... cannabis extract mixed with acetic anhydride.
If my hypothesis actually holds any water or not; it certainly falls in line with "ripening weeks" and the extended timeline required for those 2 extra sets of alkyl side chains maturity ie. (If genetic instruction set are present) and if environmental conditions allow the more complex evolutionary states of some cultivars to fully realize their genetic expression potentials.
ie. The stars have to be in full alignment so to speak.

Agreed; taste and smells are huge part of the stored memory imprint; and elicit an neural biochemical response; it's a neurochemical cascading event of sorts. ie. Chemically stored memory.... RNA-binding proteins; ect... Pretty neat stuff.The term “set and setting” was introduced by Harvard psychologist Timothy Leary, who argued that psychedelic drugs worked like a magnifying glass on one’s consciousness.
Leary defined set, or mindset, as an individual’s personality, level of preparation for the experience, expectation, and intention when taking a psychedelic. Setting refers to the environment in which the psychedelic journey takes place.
This concept of set and setting suggests that non-pharmacological factors strongly influence the effects of drugs in many ways. So your reacting to Panama Red today in a different way to your carefree days of yore is understanding that the contexts are different. The constant and necessary manipulation of weed 'strains' are further expressions of our desires and lusts and cravings to get more out of being on this orb spinning akimbo through space. The nostalgia of smelling a particularly fragrant bud burning and remembering exactly where you were (and with whom) when you last smoked something 'like' this is one of weed's most illuminating effects.

Neurobiology: The chemistry of memory
Learning requires the chemical adaptation of individual synapses. Researchers have now revealed the impact of an RNA-binding protein that is intimately involved in this process on learning and memory formation and learning processes.www.sciencedaily.com
Yea; anytime I come smell a scent; it instantly reminds me of women I've encountered over the years.Toward the end of one successful military campaign, Napoleon sent an excited message to Josephine.

Ooo lovelyFor sure.
I feel kinda the same about the Apple Fritter... Maybe a little SSSDH will give it that headiness I like.

I'm sure it's a good one... I feel the people slept on that one.Yea; I dare anyone to start at page one.That would be some real dedication there.

Massive Seeds grows in the famous Rogue Valley Terroir of Southern Oregon. Terroir is a French term used to describe the environmental factors that affect a crop's phenotype, including unique environment contexts, farming practices and a crop's specific growth habitat. Collectively, these contextual characteristics are said to have a character; terroir refers to this character. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terroir
Sounds very funky skunky brother.
Thanks... Made those with a cull in a solo cup.Ooo lovely
