the numbers dont mean anything. maybe someone is more effected by higher cbd and less thc..or many many other variations., only way to tell is smoke it. if its good then go with it and who cares about the science to it. its all over thinking stuff anyways. ive had same weed and one day rocked me next day didnt. its about our bodies and receptors and our diets that effect all this also.
and again down to the grow room and grower skills to whats good or not.
after doing this test stuff for so long i see how much of a sale pitch it is like nutrients are

Needed reposting. This is from Full Spectrum Lab. Their tests are solid, and done via HPLC iirc.

think its you needs to chill son. sound like a kid..yes you did. i was just making a responce and you obvioulsy read to deep dood. your taking info from a salseman on their stuff is all. never said it was crap, just dont believe the numbers.

like i said never once said you were wrong its just you say what i read was bullshit who fookin knows if its true or not but i do know we make advances in growing weed every day so who knows whats growing these days i compare what you say to back hundreds of years ago when they said the earth could never be round lol................but since we are on this topic so what your saying is its impossible to have cannibus with such high numbers being true ? and im not saying the added number but the true reading . but this is the stance you are presenting right b?

i missread on the 5% and that was to the other post. not yours for the 5% comment. i was talking about dr grinspoon stuff for saying i dont believe those 25 or 30% numbers
the earhts round???...wtf...i thought it was more eggs shaped from gravity pulling on it. dam.....lol....jk

"The percent THC is the weight for weight of THC in the dry cannabis sample selected for analysis. A fresh cannabis plant contains a lower proportion
of THC as fresh plant material contains a lot of water." <---- This is the info you should pay attention too from the reply to the question! (notice home office is a bit more mature in their response than STONEDMETALHEAD1 calling names.... tisk tisk ;)

"With alcohol, strength is measured in percent alcohol by volume (%ABV), but clearly the THC in cannabis doesn't amount to 10% of the volume nor of the weight, so what is it a percentage of?" <--- This is the question asked by someone wishing to decrease the areas of their ignorance on the subject we are all discussing. Don't focus on this as a reason to back your belief.

A GC (Gas Chromotography) test does just that! Test the gas that comes of the burned cannabis sample submitted for testing. ( they try to dry it out fully before the test for best results) Look at the e.g. they gave ----> "THC when cannabis is heated (e.g. in a cigarette)"

You are both kinda right = Stonedmetalhead1 it is not % of weight , but it is the "weight for weight!" It is the % of gas of the entire "sample selected for analysis!" <--- That's why hash has a higher %! You "refined" (as you put it) the majority of leaf, flower, and other material right out of the sample that will be turned to gas in a GC test!

No GC test is 100% accurate! All be it a small margin, you can test samples from the same plant multiple times and have multiple results. A more scientific test would be an HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography) and IMHO also include a GC test after.

MY POINT = This will give you the liquid compound result prior to the gas compound results! This is important because of the increasing market for edibles and other forms that are never turned to gas!!! Also some compounds like THCVA are turned to THC when turned to gas form... This is important to me because I want to know WHICH STRAIN HAS THE HIGHEST % OF THCV!!! This is the compound know to cause a psychedelic experience!!!!!! (in case your still looking for the reason we used to smoke it before glaucoma, anorexia, and etc...;)

This I hope ties it back to the original purpose of this discussion what strain has the highest amount of THC? (IMHO - I think this was worded incorrectly by hazey grapes for the purpose of the question) Give your money to the guys with the 20%+ test results, because they will get you where you want to go and maybe your mind will convince you to brag to your buddies that it's the most potent stuff around....

QUESTION TO THE EXPERIENCE CANNABIS CONNOISSEURS OUT THERE = FORGET ABOUT THE TASTE, LOOK, AND SMELL FOR A MOMENT AND TELL ME "WHICH STRAIN GOT YOU REALLY FUCKED UP?!?!?!" (and NO bigguy.... I'm not 14, I do support the medical side of the cause, but I refuse to feel shame for just wanting to use it recreationally like all the guys who go for a drink or smoke cigarets)

ALSO A QUESTION TO THE SCIENTIST (if any are out there) = "WHICH STRAIN HAS THE HIGHEST THCV%?!?!?"


I probably should have started another thread with these questions, but this one seems to still be pretty active. Also, most people would word the question for the answer I'm looking for like hazey grapes did.



Hopefully this can stay an spirited/intelligent/positive discussion amongst a people of a united cause, and we leave the spiteful/ignorant/negative debating to the politicians impossible to unite egoistic agendas ;)

STONEDMETALHEAD1,

A GC test is the % of gasses not material weight, but do you really believe that plant matter is not turned to gas along with the resin when a GC test is done? You think they test using a vaporizer and not the entire sample submitted?? You really don't believe they test the entire sample of what the collectives are submitting for test and are selling to their patrons???

You can't just pack solid bud into a GC... You use a solvent such as methanol as a wash and inject the liquid solvent into the injection port septa via syringe into the GC. Also you can't just throw in a sample and get a % without loading an internal standard for comparison.

Here is one article that explains the process for measuring THC with a GC but I am highly skeptical of the validity of this method.
http://www.srigc.com/MedicalMarijuanaPotencyTesting.pdf
For one, MSDS, which is credited by the global scientific community, lists THC as having a boiling point of 200C where the column in this GC goes up to a maximum of 200C. Now this is for 100% pure THC. THC oil found in cannabis will have some some other dissolved matter in it which will raise the boiling point. By using a GC with a flame detector, the temperature would be much hotter which would effectively ionize all of the material. A more accurate GC would be to use a flame ionization detector instead of a surface ionization detector such as this one. The use of inert gasses in GC's such as Argon Nitrogen and Helium would be a much more accurate method instead of using air. THis site lists a few internal standards but who really knows how pure they really are. I think someone needs to get a hold of some 10mg marinol, dilute it in a solvent and try injecting that into a GC and see exactly what peak and retention time shows up and compare it to any other measurements. HPLC in my opinion would absolutely kill a GC in terms of accuracy.
And yeah, bud has a ton of water weight and leaft matter and chemicals such as cellulose and xylose that will probably be ~80% of the total weight by volume. The oils will also have a lot of fatty acids, carbohydrates, and other compounds besides THC. Saying that a sample has 15% THC by weight just does not add up to me. Even if it was 15% THC in the actual resin, that still seems a little too optimistic too me.

So using a solvent is like when we make cannabis oil using butane, right? If the plant matter doesn't come into play, then why would testing an oil sample have a % in the 90's and a flower sample have a % in the 10's?

Point for sure on the PDF!

Wooh this post blew up!
Out of personal taste butane oil hash doesn't do it for me. Bubble bags are a much more fun way to spend an afternoon.
Got really blitzed out after smoking mr. Nice seeds G13 Widow. I couldn't walk straight after one hit I was tripping over myself!
I can't wait to try purple lemon larry og kush from Riot seeds. Heard really good buzz on that strain from friends upstate.

Can you post a link that would prove this?
http://seattlecannabisjournal.com/2011/02/05/cannabis-review-chemdawg-4-from-conscious-care-cooperative/
This is the highest THC % I could find online for this strain.

I have personal experience with this strain and it's ok.... Great taste, but looks are a bit loose and leafy. Trich development is good under scope, but this strain is not good enough to replace my main grow strain and I doubt that I will grow it on the side again.

I personally doubt they got a 27.5%, but if they did it will only help to prove my theory that the THC% and lab test carry less weight than a human experience test.
