Long Flowering Vs. Short Flowering potency

Interesting so it isn't the amount of thc in the plant but the mix of all psychoactive ingredients? So does this ratio determine the strength/character of the high or both? I personally prefer stones. I like to feel the waves go through me while I sink into my couch :3 now back to the hybrid question theoretically if you had eternity to breed could you create a hybrid with a short flowering time and nearly pure sativa high?

So how was the high compared to the other strains exactly?
The buzz was definitely more energetic and cerebral, HS is a good strain when you wanna have deep conversation or have a good laugh. Most indica leaning strains put me to bed after a couple hours. I like to roll joints and the only issue I had with the Hawaiian Snow was that it clogged the joint with resin every time. The joints were actually soggy halfway through smoking. It's best to smoke in glass and just perfect for the vape. Here's a few picks of her....look at the last one...she was a 10 footer

It's not about the THC. It's about the affect. DJ Short (breeder of Blueberry) said the best he ever had tested @ 7% THC. Yet it was the best he ever had, and he's clearly had some awesome stuff in his many decades with many connections int he industry.
He's also said the best way to test the potency of your bud is to smoke it while tripping on acid. I take anything that fried old geezer has to say with a grain of salt. Plus his showcase strain he's famous for, that's supposed to have been bred by a pro for years and years, is way overrated, mutates, and herms like no other.

I've read of Thai varieties with like 35% thc.....

I often wondered how they would even gauge something like that.....

Here in Australia Sativa had been king for many years because of our proximity to Asia,
all of those positive things you said about sativas as are correct, and I rather enjoy them.
i spent a few years working as a counsellor for alcohol drugs and other addictions and sativas
actually are the main culprit in cases of onset psychosis from cannabis use.
yes most of us are not predisposed to mental illness but if you are sativas can be really bad news.
i saw a few cases where the psychosis was permanent and I'm of the opinion had they not had sativa they
would have had a episode later on in life but the rush and increased heart rate and paranoia we see as positive
can be devastating to the few who may suffer from mental illness or have the propensity for psychotic episodes.
so for those of you who've never tried sativa please be careful and do a sample (small amount) especially if there's any
family history of any type of mental illness and see how you feel and if alls good smoke up and enjoy.

@redeyedfrog - WTF kind of nonsensical bullshit post was that?

Glad to know that you're psyche patient, it makes it easier to put you in the ignore bin.

by the way it wasn't the weed that's your problem, the problem is your parents gave birth to you to begin with.

Wow!!! Haven't seen Reefermadness style comments in a while....

your claiming that certain canabis strains are "the main culprit" psychosis is nonsense , show me the research.

Watch out Washington and Colorado, get the wrong strain and your brain will get scrambled...lol

It's actually true. If you have a predisposition to mental illness, cannabis can trigger those potential issues earlier than 'normal'. If this concept is hard to wrap your head around then you're not growing strong meds ;).

Google 'Cannabis and mental health'.

All-in-all, if you're a healthy, mature adult you pretty much have little to worry about in regards to cannabis consumption.

You are totally correct homebrewer…. I just don't dig the blame game… and i wouldn't say it was "the main culprit" like redeyedfrog claimed.

His claim that he believes it never would have happened without cannabis consumption is where his claim becomes unverifiable with no research to support it.

Rates of mental illness haven't increased with cannabis consumption. I certainly wouldn't recommend a schizophrenic smoke strong high THC cannabis either though.

CBD cannabis? Different story.

Dude not only are you rude but you are also ignorant.
its not something I pulled out of my ass.
its easy to insult people and make rude comments of course you wouldn't do research because it's easier to remain ignorant.
there has been study after study on this and just because your from the shallow end of the gene pool doesn't make it fictional.
as I said your rudeness is only superseded by your stupidity and lack of curiosity and openmindedness.

read my post again, I said sativa in some people with a predisposition can trigger psychosis, it was not a blanket statement.
i am not claiming that marijuana causes mental illness. God forbid we say anything but positive things about cannabis because
obviously people are fiercely overprotective and can't accept there may be some negative consequence to SOME people, not the majority I said some. I love being quoted out of context!

So they smoke a bong and come to the mental health facility because why?
Because they had a psychotic episode due to what?
I love my cannabis but it can't be 100% good there are always negatives to everything.
i had no idea people would be so defensive, is it because we were so discriminated and jailed
and stuck with stereotypes of stoners? I dunno but there should be room for rational discussion.
i said the vast majority are fine that only those with a predisposition should be careful and now it's a reefer madness hysteria
statement I made. I find this ironic that it's now almost sacrilegious to say there is any negative impact from
Cannabis period. I thought pot smokers were the most open minded folks on earth! Sorry if it offended anyone
