Oh, I know the benefits, I'm just dubious of everyone growing the same strain the same way, getting the same results, and it targeting the same 'ailments'.

There are different levels of growing experience. Different nute compounds making the cannabis compounds to grow/not grow to certain levels, different spectrums of light, on different schedules. Different soils (or no soil) different veg lengths, (ultimate plant maturity) different ambient co2 levels, different water, different ph, different metals, diffenrent minerals...
...different levels of pain, different causes of the pain, different tollerances to pain...

But thru all these differences, the Delta-9 Thc, CBN's, CBD's...remain the same? Just doesn't seem likely.
Were THC, CBN's, CBD's an unchanging ratio in the strain, I'd understand the 'med-strain' calssification. But shitty-grown White Widdow does not alleviate pain better than my well cared-for Swazi Skunk. (shitty-grown, good genetic quality weed doesn't seem to do shit for pain relief, but a well-grown bagseed can alleviate pain just fine, in my experience.)
Rusty Trichome Reviewed by Rusty Trichome on . Targeted Effects and Med Strains...? Curious how this works...how does the active ingredient in cannabis help back pain in one strain, but not another? I've grown various strains (indica, sativa and hybrids) for quite a few years, and the best meds, are those that went to full maturity. Not the one with the prettiest name. In the realm of drugs, isn't the following true...? Aspirin...targets appropriate receptors in the brain. Extra-strength aspirin...targets appropriate receptors in the brain. Tylenol or Advil...targets Rating: 5
