I do have constant pain so it would never occur to me to purposely make weed that is weak and poor tasting for no reason. I just wanted to make sure folks knew that if they wanted the full strength and taste of the weed they need to see the amber or brown trichomes. It is true that weed with clear or cloudy trichomes will still get you high, just not as high. Most folks would need to smoke more to feel the medicinal effects. I want the strongest effect from the smallest amount of weed.

Most people I know who harvest early do so because of paranoia from a multitude of sources. Not to create weak weed.
this is your first post in this thread so it is unclear where you were" clearly referring to strength and taste" . if you learn to flush properly and cure correctly you will not have"funky tasting weed " most buds are at full flavor and aroma when the trics are mostly cloudy......i'm sorry for your pain and understand your need for Demerol type meds ,i do provide that but , as i said, not all patients require pain meds nor do all smokers desire to" get high"....this is a thread about OLD WIVES TALES so some factual info would be helpful.....i be back later...
