I’ve never understood people acting like there are such profound differences between weed strains. Indica and Sativa have their differences, but all the hybrids in between just seem like a bunch of strong weed with stupid names. I kind of just think it’s a sales pitch. The people working at dispensaries remind me of the same weed dealers from high school trying to sell me the same shit with a new crazy name. Just give me some weed and tell me how strong it is, that’s literally all there is to it. All the rest is just churching it up. It ain’t acid or mushrooms and we’re not about to go on some wild ride.
I will definitely agree that most of the people in dispensaries are quite annoying and often have no clue what they're talking about. Also, a lot of the strain creation is certainly nothing more than a sales pitch. That said, there are vastly different chemical compounds (and varying levels of each compound) within strains. And, if you know enough about science/chemistry, have a few particular pieces of equipment, some material to process, & some spare time... you can absolutely "go on some wild ride." Ever heard of THC-O-Acetate?
Some of it is sales pitch but a whole lot of it is agriculture.....and not much different from tomatoes or grapes but there are many strains that are not alike at all in THC or CBD content...so you don't need to take interest in that end of it....some people like just red or white wine from a cardboard box....to each their own, but it's a bigger pallet than you recognize, that's a fact...not a sales pitch and in edible form, it can be just as wild a ride as mushrooms...know your dose
Damn that was one of the funniest movies ever, or at least of its time. Special prize for this who know what this is!
I'll have to pick up a sample of that...never tried it. I smoke whichever 4 strains I grow that year...next year maybe I'll try and grow one of those
I'm partial to one called 'purple OG garlic cat-piss chronic banana-jama-whama tick-tock bee-bop fruit-loop bubba bomb superman berry crunch.' However, 'sour crack GMO white-fire alien jet-fueled diesel skunk super-ultra scooby-snack blackberry Buddha haze kush' is also not bad.
You'll enjoy it, @riverman... it's a very easy strain to grow & it usually yields pretty heavily. If pushed too long (50+% amber trichomes at harvest), however, you might get a li'l more couch-lock effect than what you prefer (as you stated previously). That said, if pulled a li'l earlier, I think it'll be right up your alley...
Blue Dream the stuff you want to smoke when you have things to do, places to be and people to see. IMHO it’s the best “daytime” strain. My wife doesn’t partake and probably wishes I didn’t, but if she had her way I’d stick with that strain. After a bowl I just can’t sit still, so I can be very motivated and productive. She likes that.
Since we can't buy it legally {yet} I smoke whatever I can get....my brother in law grows his own and it's pretty damn good...he gives me a sealed mason jar packed full of skunk smelling buds...very gummy, very pungent, and a good mellow buzz. As far as smoking during the day, I just can't do it anymore. If I did, I wouldn't get shit done...so I smoke almost every evening to help me sleep. ...and it works.
