So while there isn't a guide to selecting strains for certain aliments, there are certainly ways to educate the consumer on the various effects that will be encountered with each individual strain..:rastasmoke:

What really cracks me up is when people try to use the lineage of the plant to determine the effects of certain plants, all indicas are not all down highs, just like not all sativas are up highs..Those should just be general guidelines. Every strain has a different cannabinoid and terpene profile.. In my experience most people that bud tend have little to no knowledge on cannabis, it's bi-products..Try and go talk to a few of these folks about exactly how their herb was grown, or what micron their bubble is..The majority of the resulting answers will be very vague bordering on comical..

How exactly do I determine the micron of my bubbles? And how exactly is that an indicator of potency/effect?

For instance my GDP is well coated with Trichome's, but they are small. Whereas my Blueberry's tricomes are much larger and dense (even growing on the stem, and stalks of the leaves!). Then my Durban has king size tricomes, 2x the size of, but not as packed as the Blueberry's? :wtf:

I ask because I'm interested in knowing more about exactly what I'm growing. I know they all have different THC% and the TCB's and such will vary. I want to learn more. I'm hoping to take a sample of one of my near future grows to be tested (depending on cost)

But for now the fact that the wife is well medicated and happy with our grow is all I really need.:hippy:
