Different "types" of TCH = different high?

[TopNotchSwagger220]

Juss got done tokin outta my month old babie saxophone, and now im wonderin if there are like different types of thc because there are different highs? I wanna know what creates the different highs, or is it just the amount af thc that ditermines what kind of high it is? do different strains have different things in them that contribute to having a certain high?
replys pleas:stoned:e!!

[Samwhore]

Haha, what the hell is TCH? Lol.

[partyguy420]

hey you whore of sam... quit beeing mean to the noobs... its not his fault...

[Greenport]

[bigbryan]

IT AL SO MATTER ON THE AMOUNT OF THC

[TopNotchSwagger220]

I wouldnt call myself a noob, Yha but im tlakin about like when it comes down to the molecules n shit, like what in the bud separates the different type of highs, like what does the bud have that separates a white widow type of high from a nice enrgetic high?

sativa - head high

indica - body high

What you're asking for is the chemistry of the plants in relation to our own biological reaction.
Marijuana's cannabinoids work on all the same receptors, called Anandamide (sp?) receptors. They are all over the body.

For some reason, the different cannabinoids tend to effect only certain areas of the body. Thc tends to effect primarily the Head, allowing the user to interpret his expirience in more psychedelic/hallucinogenic ways.
The other cannabinoids, CBD, CBN, etc focus more on the rest of your body.

The indica and sativa differences in a strain are really more of plants structure, rather than it's chemistry. However, for some reason, sativa plants through their evolution found it more beneficial to have higher concentrations of THC, while indica plants favor the other cannabinoids, the ones which focus on the body, providing pain releif and tingles and all sort of bodily expiriences, like an opiate.

But each strain is capable of producing all the cannabinoids, although strains are bred specifically, for whatever the grower desires. This usually means the strain is more potent in it's particular concentration of either head or body high, and that to get the most out of growing a certain strain, as growers we would desire to harvest it while the "trics" (tiny little mushroom shaped resins) are in a certain stage of development. Cloudier trics are full of THC, while darker, amber trics are what thc degrades to, the other cannabinoids that focus on the body.

People are often confused as to what they truly want out of cannabis, thinking that THC is the only desirable. Not so. THC is very psychedelic in effect, and enhances your current state, whereas the other cannabinoids relax the body and in turn relax the mind (the body is one big meter for the mind, if you pay attention you can listen very closely to your emotions through how you're putting strain or presenting your body in structure).

The other great thing about cannabis is that for some reason, it expands the alveoli (sp?) tiny air sacs in the lungs. Our breath, (again, another indicator of our emotional state) is usually short and constrained when in pain, and when at peace, and happy, usually deep and thorough, relaxed. Cannabis takes over your lungs, signaling to your emotional state that you are indeed relaxed enough to take deep, full breaths, allowing more oxygen to the brain which again in turn enhances mental acuity, along with the psychedelic effects lending themself to create new neural pathways in your inner expirience.

Your body and your mind are completely tied into each other, and separate.
You can have a stomach ache from eating some bad food, or you could be feeling a certain negativity and the brain will try to store it in the stomach, or wherever. Humans have different places in the body for different types of negativity, for example, when one feels that they aren't able to express themself, they put strain on the throat and jaw.

Fascinating isn't it?

Learn to listen to your body, and you can learn to understand your own emotions better, leading to an altogether healthier expirience as a human being.

Peace and Love,

sativa - head high

indica - body high

HE KNOWS THIS GUYS! lol hes askin wat makes one weed indica and one sativa... and now im interested to:D

[jessem98]

canniboid profiles i think. Also things like Delta-9 THC and Delta-11 THC differ, the 11 is stronger than the 9, and is the product of eating cannabis (after cooking/activating it with some sort of lipid or alcohol). The 9 is what u get when it is smoked.

thats one of the most helpful posts ive read :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Actually there are 3 types of cannabis: indica, sativa, and ruderalis.:cool:

[lazy smoker7]

Yea what is a ruderalis high like? I always hear about indica and sativa... ,but whats a ruderalis high like? Or is a ruderalis just a word for an auto flowering plant and a ruderalis plant can be either sativia or indica? Some one help my confusion. Please

[Ganja G0d]

Cannabis Sativa:
These plants are characterized by long thin flowers and spiky leaves. They originate from equatorial regions where the growing season is hotter. They are not generally used for outdoor cultivation in colder climates, although some hybrids can produce good yields in such conditions. Cannabis sativas have more of a high than Cannabis indica buds.

Cannabis Indica:
These plants originated in the Hindu-kush areas of Central Asia, where the weather is changeable and growing conditions can be harsh. Hardy plants, they mature early and are characterized by broad, short leaves and heavy, tight flowers. Cannabis indica varieties are ideal for indoor and outdoor cultivation in cooler climates.

Cannabis Ruderalis: Cannabis ruderalis is a variety of cannabis that grows wild in parts of Eastern Europe and Russia. It is characterized by its early flowering, with some plants starting irrespective of the photo-period. Cannabis ruderalis is ideal for cultivation in cooler climates and areas where conditions are harsh. There are Dutch hybrid varieties available that combine Cannabis ruderalis and Cannabis indica.

i saw in the big post a mention to cannabis expanding alveoli... i was going to expand on that as i just learned about that in my A&P II class...

cannabis is a bronchiol dialator, which is why it can be beneficial as treatment for asthma (a little known fact). chemically it causes vasoconstriction (constriction of blood vessels). this is why people with hypertension (high blood pressure) should be careful with smoking as it can increase the likelyhood of a heart attack or stroke.

as the blood vessels contrict, it causes the airways and alveoli to be pulled apart and open more because of the tension in the walls surrounding the lumen (open space). this leads to an ease in breathing, as long as the lung tissue does not become irritated and swollen due to the heat and pollution of the smoke (hardly an issue if one vaporizes).

just FYI
