Nope. I have had plenty that smelled great and was shit and have had even more that smelled like hay but hit hard.

Of course the numbers are not 100% accurate. I don't care about THC percentage as unless you are just looking to get fucked up it really isn't the key thing for medicinal use.

Types of terps and other cannabinoids and their ratios it much more important.

I am a flavor guy anyway. I chase flavors. I don't smoke weed that tastes like hay, no matter how hard it hits. Too many good flavors out there than to subject yourself to gag on some nasty flavor.

More times than not if it smells like hay it wasn't dried and cured correctly anyway. Mostly because it was dried too fast. You see a lot of Colorado, Nevada, and Arizona cannabis suffer because of this very issue.

The same sample wouldn't even give the same results between different labs. The advertised numbers are mainly a marketing ploy.

Something that is slightly different but on a related note to the consumer. Wait till the research Robert C. Clarke has done becomes mainstream that there really is no cannabis indica genotype and there is only Cannabis Sativa and Indica is nothing more than a phenotype of Sativa. That will be interesting to see how those numbers and effects get reevaluated and how the medical sales people evolve their sales tactics.

The industry as a whole has been ready to get rid of the sativa indica question for years.

#1 question Budtenders hate.

Ever since I got my card, I've been trying to differentiate between the 2. Honestly, I can't tell the difference, so I go with the hybrid unless there's a particular strain I want to try.

Been banging that drum for years. Not a budtender though.

Most are hybrids. Welcome to modern day cannabis. Pure landraces need some work to become commercially viable.

There really is no difference. Take a full Sativa and a full Indica and extract the THC to its pure form and it is the exact same compound.

It is the Terp profile and other cannabinoids that determine the in the couch vs energetic strains. Not indica vs sativa.

Was a huge difference for me. Sativia made me nervous for some reason. I’m full onboard 100% with Indica

Sounds like yer' the man to ask.

This is my issue. I'm only looking for the sedating effects. I want something for insomnia. Perhaps it matters and perhaps it doesn't but so far I've tried 5mg, 10 mg, and 25 mg edibles of sativa strains.

I've always been the guy that became nervous and paranoid after smoking. I don't know why. It's just made me nervous about 50% of the time I did anything over a minimal amount.

Right now the 25 mg's sometimes work perfect (7 day sample size) and last friday I took an edible and felt twice as gronked as any other day. I was actually thinking that if I keep getting more wasted I won't be able to sleep. It leveled out and I went to sleep in 30-45 minutes.

So I'm looking for advice. I'm a true lightweight with THC. I want something that will predictably help me sleep. Whatever is most likely to get that done I'm willing to try...
[Reply]

That's what I've been experiencing. I thought Sativa was the more stimulating strain that lead to that feeling. Perhaps not. Maybe I need to try Indica.
[Reply]

You want relaxing, get to sleep…. Indica is clearly a better choice.
[Reply]

None of it is going to being 100% predictable to help you sleep in the doses you are seeking. Just look for products high in CBN and CBD and go from there. You may not even need any THC. You may just need some CBN and a weighted blanket.

What area are you in or what dispo do you go to? I can take a look at their menu and give some suggestions.

Are you only looking at edibles?
