Fortunately not, life wouldn't be as beautiful without those things! I guess it's psychological... As a teen, I got some beer foam down my trachea and nearly choked; I think these things happen when you try to be cool and imbibe stuff you don't like. Never managed to take another sip of beer since.
NB: Thanks for the correction. Appreciate not only learning more about cannabis but also about the English language
.Oh good. I just asked because a plurality of the people I have met with a violent reaction to beer that is not caused by ethanol have a histamine intolerance, and can try taking DAO (diamine oxidase) supplementally, and exclude histamine rich foods from their diet.
I am glad to hear that this is not so in your case.
Auf Ihre Gesundheit!
Or should it be
À votre santé!
Your command of the English language is quite impressive. I can almost always tell a speaker's/writer's native language from clues in syntax, word order, vocabulary choices etc., that are obviously apparent to me. In your case though it is opaque to casual scrutiny. If I made a study of you writing, I think it would be revealed to me, but my usual subconscious analysis of such things is at a loss.
One or both of your parents were fluent English speakers, maybe even one of them a native speaker of said? If not, and you came about your fluency as an adult, you have a rare linguistic facility indeed.

As this is 'my' thread, there's no problem with going a bit OT from time to time .
Could theoretically be tyramine intolerance instead... LoL
May I ask how it comes that you have such a broad knowledge, from genetics over pharmacology to linguistics. I'm impressed . But how comes that you guessed German or French?
My mother tongue (and the only language my parents speak) is German though I learned French and English at school and speak the former on a daily basis and use the latter on my job, the internet, and TV (most of what I watch is in English, keeps my grey matter busy). That said, thanks for the compliment!

Yes, that is right, very closely related, and with beer more probable.

I like to read a lot and think about what I have read. I also engage in many activities, hobbies, businesses, volunteer/service work etc that I give considerable thought and study in order to further my goals. Thanks for the compliment.
Subtle cues in your word usage, general attitudes/perspective, very subtle personality traits or 'atmosphere', overall cultural micro-traits, and a consideration of the demographics of Central Europe (cheating lol). Among other things.
Wow, you do have linguistic faculties in the top percentile then. You are very lucky, that is a rare gift. I encourage you to develop the skill if you aren't already. I tell people that for every additional language you master you gain 10 IQ points.
Thanks for the reply, I enjoy talking to you.

If you look at Rainforest plants, the reason they give for the rotting-flesh smell in the very huge plant, is to attract pollinators.
Still though, so will be deterred by skunk. There must be an offset between a plant needing help by animal, and some plants wanting no animals around.
Maybe it's related to how the seeds spread. Like sativa is branched and seed spread themselves, and sometimes you get skunk, so it doesn't need help to pollinate or move seed.
Maybe a OMCC One-main central cola Indicas need help to pollinate, and to spread seeds past it's own space.
Maybe this is why one leans to more sativa and skunk, and Indica toward a sweet smell.

Keeping this alive, hopefully others find it interesting too.

Perhaps putrecine and or cadaverine come into play... I've read some about putrecine and cold resistance...hmmm

If the smells are a defense mechanism to attract or repel animals or insects, the reason that not every plant has the same smell is diversification.. If everyplant was the same, its a monocrop, then if something comes along that is not repelled by that smelled that whole crop would be devastated..

Its the combination. . But sulfur also plays a role

The nasty smells (skunk like, rotten eggs etc') are a result of volatile compounds containing sulfur. These are generally secondary metabolites who are derived from the amino acids Methionine and Cysteine.
