Do high THC numbers matter? Only for sales: as researchers recently found, more THC doesn't necessarily get you more high.

It seems that they did not take in account how tolerances to weed works and how the amount of thc to highness is not a linear curve, but a logarithmic. You cant get to full paper without paying or something, but there was a small abstract on study methodology and it did not seem right at all.
I dont claim that there are not other factors in how strong the weed is than just THC, im sure there are many factors that effect it. But that study did not seem to prove shit and seemed like the people doing it had no idea about it and thus did the whole study in completely wrong way, thus its results doesent mean anything, or then the short part about how the study was made did not include some essential stuff.
Someone with university e-library passwords or something could maybe get the whole paper for free and post the whole thing.
Besides terpenes modifying the high, CBN making the high more indica like and CBD making the high more clear headed, i have started to think that there might possibly be low levels of some super potent cannabinoids that we have not discovered yet, which have a drastic effect on the high, at least in some strains. Ofc there is no solid evidence for me to believe that this might be the case, but it would make sense taking everything into consideration. Maybe time will tell us more
