Hi All.
Ok, so the story is this please bear with me with this post .....
I grow my own just for personal use and I normally grow about 4 plants.
After I harvest and I smoke I get nice and high, then as the days and weeks progress I find myself getting less high.
I start smoking more and more just to get the same affect as what 1 joint did at the beginning.
Now this all seems quite normal I would think as you begin to build up a tolerance just like with other things (tobacco, alcohol etc etc)
Now, a friend brings round some of his bud which is of a different strain and I find myself getting high off of 1 joint again. Now the thc contents may be slightly different but not by much.
So basically my question is this....it seems that I build up a tolerance to a certain strain and then when I try another I get high again. I thought thc is thc so surely it wouldn't matter what strain I smoke as if I have built up a tolerance to thc it would not matter. I find this happens with different strains of bud as well as resin.
Of course there could be a big difference in thc content (lets say 12% thc to 20% thc) but even when I smoke bud that has visibly less crystal formation and looks noticeably weaker I will get high quite quickly again.
So do you get tolerant to strains ie if I always smoke one strain like white widow do I build up an immunity to white widow so if I try something else like northern lights I would get high again or is it all just in my mind and I am actually smoking something that is much stronger??
If this is the case then I suppose instead of growing 4 plants of the same strain I should grow 4 plants of different strains??
Any thought/input on this would be very helpful.
And as always, happy smoking all
