interesting, you think its so clear cut?
what are some of your sources if you dont mind me asking, I may be interested in reading them
-
I think it is genetic
-
It's quite clear Ganja causes Parkinson's Disease, it's down twice ::)
-
It's all about the relative ratio of cannabinoids / terpenes. Everything else is just heritage. Remember you can breed an Aghan land race with an indica grow 100 plants, and have 3 hidden recessive sativa phenos. So in the end it's really about cannabinoid / terpene ratio. Also don't see why all those list couldn't be one post.

thats kinda my point, I think an indica could posses any of those properties and the same goes for a sativa... all depends on the genetics of that particular phenotype. I would say the strains that actually stand apart are those with particularly unusual cannabinoid ratios, like those high in cannabidiol vs thc
interesting about the recessive phenos DA, that explains a lot I stupidly never considered about cannabis genetics.
I found a freaking jupiter OG seed in a nug from lexi! this may be my first undertaking and I want to do it right. can you point me toward any helpful resources if I decide to give it a grow?

If you were to get one resource for growing I would say Ed Rossenthal's Marijuana Grower's Handbook Ask Ed Edition. It's pretty wonderful. If you want to get into breeding there are a few different books I would recommend. Also if you ever have any specific questions I'm generally quite happy to answer : )

I have plenty more sources for those who want them. Shredder I recommend you do some studying of the endocannabinoid : ) ANd remember folks that just looking at the CANNABINOIDS not even talking the subtle effects of the Terpenes. (And for those of you that say why do they matter, take for instance B-Carophyllene which doacks at the CB2 receptor ;) )

Holy Shit, that's allot of info.
-
LOL Digi I knew I could count on you! :)
-
DA knows his cannabis. FO SURE
-
Thank you DA for the awesome info and response to my question! I appreciate the help from an obvious expert
CT you should take a lesson from DA > your claims dont mean shit unless you back them up with some scientific evidence at least partially supporting what you say... just like you offering weed but not having a seller acct, cant back your shit up and youre just running your mouth, wastin your breath. or you know you could just ignore me some more... I was just curious about reading the resources you knew, but it is clear you have other motives than benefiting the members and status of this community
-
CT, this was probably one of the more useless ganja threads. Pretty much you just told us your opinion on what weed is good for what.
Can you have some facts to back up these claims?
DA thank you for all that very interesting information. I def learned a lot.
CT take a lesson from him. :)

Chill and smoke a bowl....Heres a couple good info. sites to check out http://www.leafly.com/ http://www.kindgreenbuds.com/

So I am confused, it seems to me the stuff DA is saying actually supports CT statement. That the combinations of the chemicals in the herb produce different effects. So your saying if I have some mexican sativa and I smoke it, that I could actually get a energy filled buzz like when I smoke an indica dominate plant. Or I could get a sativa high of an indica dominant plant????
Cause that is how I take it, and although there may be exceptions to this rule, from prit near all my experiences this has been so. Different varieties of weed have different highs, due to like DA says the combinations and ratios of the active chemicals.
It doesnt seem crazy to me at all that after years of medical cannabis the pharmacies have found that different strains of genetics have different ratios off chemicals and help to treat different ailments.......makes total sense to me. Is your point that those ratios vary over generations then???? So it is hard to say an indica will always show indica traits???? I mean I would think that the differences on average wouldnt be that large.

i smoked three or four bowls during the last week then I smoked a bunch of tobacco yesterday and today and now i've gone retarded like ADD or something.
it seemed like there was going to be a point to this post but i guess not.
oh yeah what type of ganga do ya think i smoked?

Hahahaha, I'm totally that kind.
Maybe it's only placebo, but when I get diarrhea, I just smoke a good joint and it always stops my intestine for a while. At once I was totally closed for almost 72h, smoked a joint, sat on my throne, relaxed and send a fax to ocean.

That was a response to microRNA,dude sounded like he was binging on the HaterAid...Don't know what strain you got? post a pic
