THC levels, what's high?

Ya now TV just makes me want to get stoned.

I think you may have pulled too soon. I remember you weren’t able to see the triches and you still had a lot of white pistils.

Here try gorilla glue, bruce banner or banana kush. All 3 will put you in that good place.

You might be right. 11 weeks flower and I was impatient. But it does work just all mental , no body stone at all and that does discribe an early harvest. So I keep on keeping on. Will look up the strains recommended here. Just need short Bushey indica, I’m in a 2x4x5 tent and just growing for my own head.

I think i have a high tolerance for weed, but anytime i have a chance at some sativa heavy strain, i usually end up flying higher than with most Indicas…
But curing definitely has a big impact on the effects

Did the chop on 8/12 dried in tent 4 days and it was dry to touch. Jarred with 62% humity pack.

All of the ILGM autoflower strains are compact and should fit well in that space. These are the ones that are also have a high Indica percentage and high THC value:
Girl Scout Cookies
Gorilla Glue

If you prefer a photoperiod, the following strains are highly(or completely) Indica, compact in size and have a high amount of THC:
Blackberry Kush
Purple Kush
Grand Daddy Purple

I made these comparison charts because I think they’re a lot easier to browse than all those web pages:

Salutations,

Here’s a schematic which summarizes an important consideration related to the “entourage effect”, e.g. quality buzz over raw strength:

Animation%20for%202-to-1%20THC%20vs%20CBD%20Ratio%20

Actually i most probably mentioned its associated Leafly article a long while ago.

:thinking:

My point here would be that there’s a limit to the amount of cannabinoïds which a plant can produce and this would be symbolized by the amber region, which implies that THC-centric selection leaves little for all other noble molecules (over a hundred potential candidates i figure)…

This graphic doesn’t only echo thousand of years dedicated to buzz-driven cannabis cultivation, judging from the way these clusters distribute i’d point out it also reflects a side-effect of prohibition, leaving near-total voids inbetween full “medical”, 1:1 (still medical) and “criminal”/“recreational” (legal status depending on what country you live in).

So it seems to me there’s a lot that remains to be told and explained by “spe¢iali$ts”/“expert$” on late TV news and other “information”/“educative” shows still centered on the old Victorian-age THC % reasoning, for example:

SRC%20-%20Marina%20Orsini%20(S2Ep26)%20-%20Christiane%20Laberge%20(2016-Oct-13)%20%5B400x300%5D%20

(2016-Oct-13)

This nice lady who was seen on French-speaking national TV actually pointed heaven with her index while compelled to “inform” the populace about how much it should regret dry leaves with 1 % THC, presumably as in the “good old days”…

Thanks to Providence lots of progress got accomplishes since the Victorian age.

:wink:

Good day, have fun!! :peace_symbol:

If your buzz is still light at a 3 month cure then you harvest to soon. 2 simple things to up the thc and trichomes is to spike the stalk and ice baths the other big thing is light go 25%over what ever is recommended for led and hps,mh this alone will put you on another level. Taking notes and dialing in your tent or room each time adds up to.
Hope this helps you and give you a couple ideas for your grow

Didn’t know the high would change with cure, thought cure was for flavor and taste.

Thc increases during the cure From what I’ve been told

And a perfect time to plug Crystal haha! So I did.

@Audiofreak I notice the same thing with my Sour Diesel: the ILGM photo was like 14 to 18%. I love the strain and it’s stony but not AS stony. My current go to is Purple Haze which is up there but more sativa than indica. I whip out the Crystal or Black D.O.G. for the K.O.

It really does on some strains. Maybe has to do with what point it was harvested? I’ve had some cannabis that was essentially done in a week as far as flavors and performance while others took a month.

I have to say I’m quite surprised here it’s been a little over a month in jars now one plant tastes and smells wonderful and does a real nice job now as far as the buzz goes still sneaker creeper weed but the buzz is very very nice getting better by the day the second plant the buzz has the same very very good but never lost it smell never gained any good smell to it doesn’t smell like hay anymore but it doesn’t smell like pot either but it smokes real good and has it gotten better over time and is still getting better so I’ve learned something.
