    For real. Can we have 90s weed again? I want to puff on a joint all evening and get a good buzz, not be spun out of my gourd.

      Idk bout your area but if you shop around your local dispo’s (assuming a legal state) you can still find older strains for sale that lab test under 15%THC. They’re way nicer to smoke over longer periods than the industrial 25-30%THC stuff most places push now.

      That’s what I grew up smoking in highschool lol some of the shit they make today leaves me curled up shivering under a blanket… Lately I’ve been making a drink with that new Cheech and Chong “Judges Stash” and Crystal Light. I sip on it for a while and it just mellows me out after work

        I think you’re right. My dad tells me stories about back in the 70s at parties, the people who were smoking weed were smoking joints all night like they were cigarettes and just getting a good buzz. That’s what I want.

      I learned recently that most modern marijuana strains have essentially the maximum amount of THC that is physically possible (about 30 wt% of dry flower), and now the main differentiator between strains is the turpene content. There are many different kinds of terpenes, and they result in significantly different experience profiles. Here is a leafy link with more info: https://www.leafly.com/news/strains-products/top-cannabis-strains-and-terpenes

      Humulene has an appetite suppressant effect, but it is rarely the dominant terpene.

      Meanwhile here I’m getting angry reading complaints from potheads who don’t have to spin the roulette as to whether they’re gonna be couch-bound or bouncing around on any given day.
