Spoken wisely.DJ Short says it's not always about the amount of tris but the composition within them.
Agreed 100%I donlt recall the old weed looking all tricromed up like we see today but there was some def fire back then.
Way more?Theres way more to it than total THC content.
I'm dying to see this. I'd love to see who and how this was analytically-quantified lol.The winner of this years Emerald Cup tested out at 20%, but beat out the top THC tested strain, which was over 32%. The 32% was 100% "Devoid of Terpenes/THCV/CBD/CBN
At the expense?Total THC content, at the expense of other chemicals, is misleading at the least.
I don’t measure potency by psychotropic Effects alone, they were asking about the strongest strains, not sativas, and I’m pRetty sure no matter how high the thc is there are other factors involved in determining the psychotropic effects, for example I had my favorite CBG Panama cut & my favorite Ace seeds panama cut. The Ace seeds cut tested slightly over 1% higher then the CBG Panama cut but the CBG Panama was the more potent psyctropic bud. The only reason I had ace seeds was b/c my buddy didn’t wanna wait for them to finish so I did a side by side and kept the 3 most sativa dom tastiest potent phenos from like 30 beans. The CBG pheno was more fragrant & tastier & potent. The ace seeds keeper looked slightly better and tasted and smelled good too just not as goodNo, actually it isn't. The psychotropic effects of cannabis are mediated by THC.
Higher THC-content is more psychotropically-active than lower THC-content. This is an unequivocal fact.

The existing scientific research is exclusive to the non-psychotropic constituents of cannabis, so any researcher will focus on the plant's medicinal value over it's psychotropic-potential.No. People breed for total THC concentration, at the expense of other compounds.
Raphael Mechoulam, Ph.D, who is considered the leading researcher on cannabis, says that Land Based Originals, and IBL Polyhybrids have the most medicinal value, and does not like most of the modern types of mainstream weed supplies because ultimate THC content is being bred for, at the expense of other compounds. Dr Mechoulam also Discovered the THC Molecule in 1964, and also discovered the human Endocannabinoid system.
None of any significance, other than inter-individual/physiological variables.I’m pRetty sure no matter how high the thc is there are other factors involved in determining the psychotropic effects
THC is the only psychotropic cannabinoid in cannabis.So I guess what I’m saying is any kind of effects from strains I believe come from a few different things like thc/cbd/terpenes
I understand that but can u say for sure that those effects combined w/ the other effects from a pheno dont make those psychotropic effects feel different, stronger, trippier.THC is the only psychotropic cannabinoid in cannabis.
is it possibe there are other compounds i todays MJ we've not discovered yet ? Or were there other compounds in the MJ from years back that are no longer contained in them ?
No, actually it isn't. The psychotropic effects of cannabis are mediated by THC.
Higher THC-content is more psychotropically-active than lower THC-content. This is an unequivocal fact.

Well there's always new compounds being quantified, but generally speaking, the chemical-constituents of cannabis have remained relatively the same throughout time - what you liked from a particular strain from the 80's..... can still be found in a strain from today.
Yes, genetic lineage and varying cultivation-methods play an enormous role in overall plant diversity, but the new strains still have the same components as the old-school stuff.
As for the physiological effects from old-school vs new strains.... it's not a fair comparison. Our thought-process is completely different than what it was back then. So is our memory of how good it actually was.
I still love AK. Nothing touches it in terms of classic old-school flavor.... but does the high compare to my new-school elite strains? Not a chance.
