Tetrahydrocannabivarin, also known as tetrahydrocannabivarol, THCV, or THV, is a psychoactive cannabinoid found in minor amounts in the hemp plant Cannabis sativa. It is an analog of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) with the sidechain shortened by two CH2 groups. THCV can be used as a marker compound to differentiate between the consumption of hemp products and synthetic THC (Dronabinol, Marinol).
I think you may be talking about hu-210 its a synthetic compound believed to be between 100 -800x stonger than thc. I believe its rather hard to get hold of and pretty expensive but its been a while since i looked.
HU-210 (CAS# 112830-95-2) is a synthetic cannabinoid that was discovered around 1988 in the group of Dr Raphael Mechoulam at the Hebrew University. HU-210 is 100 to 800 percent more potent than natural THC from cannabis and has an extended duration of action. HU-210 is the (+)-1,1-dimethylheptyl analog of 7-hydroxy-delta-6-tetrahydrocannabinol. The abbreviation HU stands for Hebrew University.
Per a 2005 article in the Journal Of Clinical Investigation, HU-210 actually stimulates cell growth in the brain's hippocampus region, an opposite effect of drugs like alcohol, nicotine, heroin, and cocaine.
HU-210, along side WIN 55,212-2 and JWH-133, is implicated in preventing the inflamation caused by Amyloid beta proteins involved in Alzheimer's Disease, in addition to preventing cognitive impairment and loss of neuronal markers. This antiinflmatory action is induced through the agonization of cannabinoid receptors which prevents microglial activation that elicits the inflamation. Additionally, cannabinoids completely abolish neurotoxicity related to microglia activation in rat models.
Edit: i dont that is what he paid for but i think i would if given the chance
Indeed Sam Skunkman is imho the father of modern indoor weed types
this guy is a genius and i dont say that lightly on overgrow he had the best
most thorough thread concerning seperate compounds him n his team were smoking them seperatly and reporting how they effected them. As far as i remember THCV is not synthetic and did nothing when smoked alone but he reported it worked as a blocker to THC.
These cats were isolating n smoking the variouse terpenes its a pitty such a fantastic rescource as Overgrow has been left to gather dust.
last time i went the most expensive i saw was ice hash, they has warnings saying 'do not buy if you are not a regular toker' etc so i had to get some, it was amazing got me stoned for a long time and was hard hitting shit.
shit that hawain haze ice o lator and the kushage hash at the dampring was worth every penny wish i could buy it in london its not expensive at 40 cos it stretches well worth the money

Some of the best hash I had last year was crystal clear from Katsu,and some 73u gold from Resin,they were out of the platinum.I think the CC was like 40 and the stuff from Resin was 140 euro for 5g's.The CC was a bitch to smoke,it is laminated between to pieces of plastic,but the high was unforgettable.The stuff from Resin was close to full melt.
