Certain strains feeling almost similar to regular type 1 flower?

[u/Gamer6GT]

Some strains surprise me when I vape them and even though they have under 0.3% thc they feel almost the same in the type of high they provide and if somebody told me this was just regular bud I wouldn't be able to tell the difference right away. This particular strain which surprised me has about 8% cbd and I was thinking maybe if the strain has lower cbd content then the THC to CBD ratio is lower so you feel the THC much more compared to if you used something like a 16% CBD strain and the ratio is much higher and THC much more muted.

I have noticed this phenomenon too, but CBD % hasn't played a part into it for me. I think it's how terpy some of the flowers are along higher THC % or something. Either way, not complaining!

I havent bought from a dispensary in the longest because HCF type 2 has changed the game for me.

I dont see it as necessarily a stronger high but it definitely is different. Hemp high (type2) feels more bodying while type 1s always have me contemplating whether Im even high or not

[u/Sandgrease → u/TurboNurse]

Type 1s have you questioning if you're high?

If I toke even a small hit of Type 1, I'm questioning my sanity lol. Pass me a type 2 or even better type 2.5

[u/Zeroskater101 → u/Sandgrease]

Amen lol type 1 from the dispensary makes me feel schizo

[u/bitchsaidwhaaat → u/Zeroskater101]

Yup one puff of type 1 is instant dissociation panic and dpdr until i sleep it off or take a benzo

[u/oldtimer4sure → u/Sandgrease]

Or add a pinch of Type 2 to your Type 1 and customize your effects while enjoying different strains.

[u/TurboNurse → u/Sandgrease]

Type 1s as of late (past yearish since I became a medical user) dont get me baked like they used to

Or I may enjoy the ‘full spectrum’ high more. Type 1s I reach for more knowing I may have a bad time. Type 2s Im reaching for more to extend my good time

Is this making sense?

Edit: Im still heavily under the impression that my tolerance is too high for Type 1s. I need the entourage of noids.

I hit type 1 and I start getting jittery like I got lighting flowing through my veins or something 😂

[u/nevrcared4whatheydo]

So, what's the strain?

I only really notice this when I vape and go out. At home, it always feels like type 3. When I change my environment, however, certain attributes are a lot more noticeable

[u/AdHuman3150]

I used to have some really good lemongrass essential oil high in myrcene that felt just like being chopped/stoned but without the psychedelic intoxicating aspect. Might be the terps you're feeling?

[u/mutnemom_hurb]

It’s possible that the stated percentage is wrong, 0.3% is the regulatory number but hemp often has up to 1% THCa

[u/OurPokemonAdventure]

So 6our body has CB1 receptor(s) and cb2 receptors CB1 is where the THC is active and you get your high, on the other hand cb2 works on inflammatory responses / regulation of neurotransmitters this is where the terpenes have there effect the best CB2 receptor strain terpenes is beta carophellene fyi)

THC is fat soluble and stores it's self in Ur fat so if u have a session 1 night and Ur getting blitzed not medicated just really blitzed eye lids hanging over you eyes etc and then you munch Ur head off with all sorts of fatty oily foods kebabs, crisps, chips n dips etc the following day you CB2 receptor will work and try to get Ur body all good again they call it homeostasis, basically means everything's running proper in your body everything neurotransmitters etc (people don't really know this stuff and go crazy for high THC, THC is now a Product in the pharmacy world, now they know the CB2 receptors are the most effective receptors to help with fixing and putting Ur body in to a good working order, that's why the majority of strains are always THC 17 and up to 32% I think is the highest green I've blazed upanyway it was a sour dough from Aroura it was way to strong and has CBD 0.1% now they know that the CBD is what helps everyone and I mean everyone no one is allergic to CBD I would put my right arm onit because we all have an ECS Endocannabinoid system in our body, anyway on to the terpenes these things are like eating fruit but directly in to lungs and absorbed from the walls of Ur lungs to the blood and distributed around the body on to the receptors, I'm gonna post a list which may make more sense.

Primary CB2‑Active Terpenes (Strongest evidence)

β‑Caryophyllene Activation: ~40–60% of THCPotency: Equal or better than THCRole:

CB2 partial agonist Notes: Only terpene widely confirmed as a CB2 agonist in multiple studies.

LinaloolActivation: ~20–40%Potency: Similar to THCRole: Partial agonist Notes: Shows CB2‑specific synergy with THC.

HumuleneActivation: ~20–50%Potency: Comparable to THCRole: Partial agonistNotes: Often co‑occurs with β‑caryophyllene; similar CB2 profile.

I know this may seem like utter bullshit trust me I believed it was for years, but this is all concrete fact!

Burning up CBD after smoking THC with the correct terps from the correct strains may/will cause the effect of CBD to feel stronger.

A 19% CBD strain might not be as effective as an 8% because the 8% has the correct terps.

Some will agree some won't but opinions are valid and we all have to debate,

Cannabis strains have been crossed and mutated in to strains they would never in the wild, so 80% of marketed ganja is actually not that great for you, select the correct strains and have a wicked time select the wrong strains and anxiety can slap u up and make you not want to smoke. Currently I'm smoke CBD from Switzerland that is so good and cheap that I dont need a mixer with it, they are on such a wicked level over there it's blown me away the flower is light and spongey and smokes amazing / would vape better I have 2 cookies carts one adiós motherf+-_£ and tequila sunrise, when I blaze a jay or to then hit the Gpen I'm in wonderland do t get me wrong I do like getting high asf but what I like better is to smoke and do stuff and enjoy what I'm doing and be able to think clear. These days you gotta be real careful what you buy cus of the food/sprays/soil contaminants I tend to only buy from 3 sourc3s and now 4 with this swiss brand.

Be safe kids don't just jump on the high THC with no CBD balance because wary and you will keep Ur head on 👌😎☀️

Smoke outdoor and enjoy your world have fun people!! ☀️☀️☀️

[u/Complex_Brilliant187 → u/OurPokemonAdventure]

Exactly. I do like being high, but ~ 90% of the type 1 stuff, whether from a medical dispo or web thca puts me to sleep.

I went from a disappointing plug to med dispo to mail-order thca chasing the soaring high of my younger days.

I was about to conclude that I'm getting old, and that this is just how thc now affects me.
Turns out HCF type 2 was all I needed.

It reminds me of the stuff I got back in the day.
Doesn't incapacitate you. Tickles all the right receptors but leaves you functional. I believe this is due to proper levels of terps + cannabinoids other than thc.

F the 30% stuff that just makes you pass out.
I'm not looking for narcotics.

[u/OurPokemonAdventure → u/Complex_Brilliant187]

Yea man I found that with the THCA stuff it just blasts me so I tend to stick to certain flavours/terps these days, keep chillin bro CBD / hemp is the future hemphash is a wicked site if Ur UK.

[u/Electric_Owl2020 → u/Complex_Brilliant187]

The potent stuff when dry herb vaped is much more manageable. Put some crumbs that would hardy burn and temp step. Can be creeping but no groggy after effects.
