Is most of the THC gone after the 1st hit?

I didn't realize this was an argument. I was kind of thinking it was a discussion, or brainstorm.

But aren't nearly all the canniboids in the resin, and isn't nearly all the resin in the trichomes? If I burn plant matter nothing happens. You need to burn the trichomes to get high. That is why you wait until the bud is nice and frosty with trichomes. Otherwise people would be harvesting during the vegatitve state. This has been my understanding for the past 25 years. Have I been wrong all this time?

the actual green itself has thc in the buds
Yes, but very little. I know there is THC in the plant matter too, but isn't it like maybe 1% of what is in the trichomes? Isn't that why we harvest the nice n frosty parts, the parts with the trichomes, and throw the rest away?

And I just thought of something else, Sirsmokesalot. When you vaporise instead of burn, you get more high and none of the plant matter was burned. How do you explain this?

touche opie.

for the record i apologize for sounding a little grumpy in my last post.

by the way i always used my vaporized bud, which is somewhat burned, to cook with afterwards. just out of curiosity where do those psychoactives come from?

ummm actually the buds have ALOT of THC in them
like ALOT
notice that if you roll and the trichomes fall off it still gets u high!

exact opposite... the roach end of your blunt/joint will be more potent because the smoke runs through the weed and deposits resin, works just like those chamber pipes that you stick weed in.

I see, that makes sense.

but opie,

why is it than when i grind my bud fine enough to collect almost all the resin and press it into hash, smoking the bud still gets me fucked up? hmmmmm?

you don't harvest in the vegitative state because the plant produces THC when it's maturing--ie when it's budding. the buds hold most of the THC, however the trichromes are very potent. hashish is pressed trichromes. it's not just the trichromes that get you high-- if that were the case, what would be the point of owning a grinder with a screen??? the plant produces THC when flowering, in the buds; that's why you smoke the buds. it's not just the trichromes that get you high, although it's the best product in my opinion.

^^^ word

pretty much what i was trying to say
