Xtra hight THC strains

Briefcase size testing kit you say? Might be the same guy from the cannabis expo that was planning on running a business model renting out his testing equipment.
 
Very cool article. But its true, even some of mine that were less sticky, but more stinky, got me more stoned. If that's an indicator of THC vs Terpenes, then I'm a believer.
 
In doing research on seeds/strains the more I read the more disappointed I become with the current breeding many seem to be doing. Actually, I would compare most of the seed I have read about so far to bag seed, random accidental crosses, now sell the seed! (I can do this at home a lot cheaper!) For me, this is not good genetics, I may have to get landraces and try bringing back my Tulsa Tops strain!

Edit; I have to ask this also, the xtra high strains I have seen here so far, some have not been pleasant to smoke. One of them actually made the lungs hurt (I dont want that), so have you torched any that was a pleasure to smoke, or is this the norm?

Ok, so what's wrong with the inexpensive THC testers you can buy? I see various kits being promoted online; they aren't really any good?
 
That is one I want to try, I do like the old school flavors of pine and skunk!
edit then take it and cross it with BB3, I have seen/read that cross as well, could be interesting.

I have not yet seen anything I can budget, I am sure the prices will come down,,,
Edit, a google search reveals the cheap ones only test up to 20% THC and much less for CBD, I didn't look at the specs on the more costly ones,,,

In my opinion it's all about the entourage. High THC can have a nice one but I typically find the most enjoyable smokes for me are in the low 20s. The one for sure exception has been Jet Fuel from Colorado's THCU in Trinidad back in 2017 tested at 32.7 and it was amazing. It had it all man, high potency, smooth smoking, great flavor and wonderful mood lifting qualities. It was perfect for staying upbeat when having a shitty job.
 
Bubble hash is not much more than the trichs beaten off the flower. It’s almost 99% thc and I hate the high from it. Sure it hits you right between the eyes quickly, but I find it fades away really soon after that. No long body stone. No nothing other than a quick brain trip. Same with the oils and capsules my licensed providers sell.

The entourage effect is way too important to me than just straight thc.
 
SoOrbudgal if you get hold of some lets us know how it is! And if you get seed I'll be jealous!

DingusKhan With the latest cannabinoid find, THCP (30 times stronger than THC) it might make since that a higher THC strain may be lower in THCP (~0.05%), and the lower THC may be higher in THCP (~0.1%), so much to learn!
 
I am really surprised that this conversation hasn't been moved in the direction of Cannabinoid combinations.

The story I remember most is of the underground breeding that has been done to cannabis from the 70's to earily 2000's when most cannabis wasn't test and THC was thought of exclusively and the only concern, breeding of non-psychoactive effects and it's traits were considered useless with a focus mainly on elevating THC level as we are discussing here. It is by luck if you can find some old school genetics and kind of funny that it is a prize for breeders not to mention how 1:1's and strains like Charlottes web are coveted.
At one point it was found (or revisit) other cannabinoids in combination have better results on a individual then elevated levels of THC alone, point being that a 33% Thc strain may not be the golden ticket for everyone but a 23% THC 3% CBD may be the best match to your personal Endocannabinoid system and what makes it happy. Would it be something to get a test, like a allergy test but tells you the best cannabinoid combination for the best mellow, now that I would do.
When I first started looking at BHO, wax, oil and then desolate I was a little intimidated with % of THC, 38%, 74%, and even 96% had me nervous but I tried it anyhow, lol. It was a completely different high the first time, real got ahold of me but after that it was a good high till I ran out then back to my flower and I was reminded of how good it was, really got a hold of me again and I wondered if it was better for me personally then random legal concentrates.

Guess I am just curious if a higher and higher THC level is the most important part of the buzz. Iv been more focused on the perfect combination and have a couple kick butt strains with the access to testing legally in my state. I have been interested to know what combination I've pick out solely by the effects it has on me when I use it, what levels of other cannabinoids in combination with % are. This is in the cards for me this year.
 
In chemistry they use the term interaction. I believe there is an interaction of chemicals that provide the entire profile. THC content is one benchmark, but does not tell the full story.
 
I’ve been livin on hippie-joints exclusively for the past 30-some yrs. No pipes or bongs...not even a rolling machine... good old roll-n-lick filterless joints. Like you, I always felt a better quality effect from smoking flower. I occasionally make green ghee, but that’s mostly for summer when the days are longer and the aches seem to come out more.
 
I wanted to bring it up days ago but let the thread take it's course until this morning when I brought it up. It is my opinion that it is most definitely ALL ABOUT THE ENTOURAGE!
