I guess I'm talking about the true effects of the cannabinoids they've isolated and categorized.

from the link I posted above:
CBN (Cannabinol) is produced as THC ages and breaks down, this process is known as oxidization. High levels of CBN tend to make the user feel messed up rather than high.

CBN levels can be kept to a minimum by storing cannabis products in a dark, cool, airtight environment. Marijuana should be dry prior to storage, and may have to be dried again after being stored somewhere that is humid.


I think we all agree that UV degrades some cannabinoids, altering them into others, right so far? Then why wouldn't we protect them from UV light?
And how come after I started using the UV light, the aroma, flavor and effects seemed to increase for one of my favorite indica dominate strains that I've grown for quite a few years, but not the sativa dom growing next to it at the same distance, same schedule, same everything...except didn't do much to the sativa other than age 'em quicker?

Seems to me the common rule is that the CBD degrading to CBN is a buzz kill, and degrades effects. But I was/am convinced that if there's degredation there, it isn't so bad, lol. What am I missing here? (in layman's terms)

Are there other otherwise innert cannibinoids that are only altered (kicked-up a notch) by these specific nanometer wavelengths, overcoming the degredation of the CBD? Whew...getting a headache here. So many questions but I get lost in all the advanced tech-speak.

Would a very slight adjustment to my UV bulb spectrum have possibly accomodated my sat dom?
