I definitely notice you reading/liking and appreciate it!I love that you are diving so deep into this and sharing it on the forum! There are so many questions around all the compounds and what is actually doing what. Maybe we can answer some of these with all your testing, I really hope so at least... I may not comment much but I definitely read it all and I'm fascinated. PLEASE don't stop!!!
Short answer is no. Variables are staggering. Even within a plant, you have the tops that finish before the bottom.A loosely related tangent, but @Moe.Red , it occurred to me as I'm closing in on harvesting a couple of plants, is there any lucidity you can bring to all of the bro-sci surrounding harvest timing? e.g. Always harvest in the morning. Give the plants 24 hrs of dark before harvest. Milky trichomes are best. Amber trichomes are best. What's the word? Can you shine any real science on this question from your testing?

What you are going for is another big variable. And of course the plants themselves. Milky or amber trichomes are best - for what? THC?
The harvest in the morning thing is something I have read that kinda makes bro-sciency sense - that terpenes are released throughout the day so first AM should be the most. But there are implicit assumptions there as well, and I have no way to test at home for terps.
On another thread I am doing some UV testing. This will have the side impact of seeing what happens to a plant as it matures with testing. I think it might tell us a few things, or perhaps set the stage for another test targeted at your questions.
Can you give me a link to where you found that? Thanks!!
Cummon man, do I have to do everything? Can't you just download it directly to my brain?click on it. lol

I'd like to connect with other grower searching for THCV genetics. The universal answer from google is always Doug's Varin, but the genetics are heavily protected so don't bother. But there are other strains that hold promise; e.g. Durban Poison (the landrace, NOT the Dutch version), Ethiopian, Wild Thailand, and a handful of others that specifically tout their THCV concentration, but to my knowledge, nothing has been independently verified.
Anyone grow anything out that's been lab tested or holds promise?
I read that Tangie, Pineapple Purps, Durban Poison, Girl Scout Cookies and Dutch Treat are naturally high in THCV. No wonder three of these are among my favorites! And that's probably due to the fact that I haven't tried the other two. Have lots of GSC for comparison if you're close. If you grow GSC, top it more than once if you have any problem with a plant over 8 feet tall in a 12 gal. bucket!I'd like to connect with other grower searching for THCV genetics.

This reminds me of this re: cbd and myrcene or its absence. It's in the first 5-10 minutes.Here are the results from my green stem Lebanese
No thcV. Some CBD tho.View attachment 1106864
Sorry it didn't pan out. Strange result, overall cannabinoids are low, and Guaiol is number 1. I've never seen that before.Here are the results from my green stem Lebanese

I hear its the thin mint pheno. She represents the Durban side. My first Durban run was from seeds of Africa. Had one survivor from the pack. Landraces are tough for a newb grower. LolI've grown GSC before, but obviously a different cultivar. Mine had none.
