Howdy folks, first post.
I didn't find this in any of the threads I looked at (and I looked...) after several weeks of lurking, so here goes.
A friend and I smoked some stuff (ordinairy smoke from a dealer, type unknown) , which we agreed came on pretty strong at first, in a jagged, hyped,and unpleasant fashion before settling into an acceptable buzz after 30 mins or so....also this strain seems to bring on a nervous sort of high. It works, but poorly.
My buddy pulled out a bud that he got as a present, told me the strain but I forgot the name (will get it when I see him next), and we tuned up. This was a much gentler high, tasty and pleasant, although strong, and I definitely preferred it.
So, my question: When doing a home grow, will the seed/strain I use determine what sort of effect I will get from the bud, or is that pretty much a crap-shoot, given the variables of grow practices, differing soils/nutes etc?
I have never grown weed before, and would like to try, if the payoff is the kind of weed I like to smoke. To be frank, a lot of weed I have tried is either too strong, and/or has the effect of making me feel socially ill-at-ease, which is definitely not my normal MO. Others I have tried work for me just fine, and treat me pretty well, with no ill effects. I have found street purchases to be pretty mucha grab bag, and thus far my luck hasn't been very good.
So does the seed/strain determine the buzz?
