I've had similar experiences with Mexican landraces I've grown, @Lerugged -- zero frost, but so mindbendingly strong, it'd knock ya down, pick ya back up & chase ya 'round the block a few times. It ain't about the frost, apparently.
I agree completely with this. One of my all time favorites is 14%. The manager at my local grow store has been growing for many years and he still talks about the best weed he's ever grown and it was an 8% blueberry headband. The dispensaries paid a premium for it. I think it's more about the combination of terpenes. I've tried the supposed 30% thc strains and was completely underwhelmed. My 14% strain got me a lot higher. It really sucks that most growers are just breeding towards the highest thc and not for effects. A lot of excellent strains get overlooked because they are below 20% thc. One of my most popular medical strains is only 3% thc and 8% cbd.
I think your rite frost is really pretty to look at but if its not good frost its all window dressing!
The medicinal value for Me personally (Tourette syndrome) from the research I've done would most likely lie in THCV. Usually found in decent concentrations in African landraces . It could be something unknown but all I know is it does what a lot of chemical shit can't. Besides who wants to take that kak forever ?
lol I knew what you meant I currently take blood pressure and cholesterol meds and I don't like it but im not willing to change everything I do so I take that stuff but we love the thc!
I wouldn't downplay the terpes or dismiss them. I think what maybe would be more accurate of a statement would be to say the entourage effect. The cannabinoids in conjunction with terps and the rest of the plant matter we might not understand yet.
... and esters and flavonoids too.
It always amazes me. I've mixed 2 blah strains before and found a winner. Pass a joint of that same mix to a friend and nothing happened. Everyone is different.
Yes sir! And how scientists/experts account for that.....well.......It always amazes me. I've mixed 2 blah strains before and found a winner. Pass a joint of that same mix to a friend and nothing happened. Everyone is different.

I attribute it to they are just used to smoking that type of erbs and anything else is deemed as weak or not worthy. I personally like all the different types of buzzes. They all have their place. I work a average of 50+ hrs a week so I can only blaze in evenings for the most part. That puts me in a 50/50 hybrids range most of the time. Strong sativa's for the days when I get the next day off. Sometimes they really wind me up and keep me up for long periods of time
I keep looking for good indicas that I enjoy and so far Bubba Hash is the only one that's fine it for me. Still on the lookout.I have a bud like that too. Most indicas I smoke don't move the needle much for me, they are "mostly" the same for me. There are a few exceptions but I could just pick a couple indicas and grow them exclusively and be happy. The Sativas give me the most variation in highs and are my preferred choice of weed. When I find an exceptional sativa I like and share it with my bud he never gets the same feelings I do, he just says "yeah, it was a friendly buzz" which is code for it didn't knock my dick in the dirt (he did like the Killer though). Everyone is different for sure. I swear every strain I think is meh, he goes crazy for it. I've killed more plants that people have come back later and wanted more and couldn't believe I didn't keep the plant.
