Bees do not have a CB! or other Cannabinoid receptors, I have seen them collect pollen but never resin. I use bumblebees in my greenhouse for tomato pollination, every year I have males flowering they are interested, they ignore the females, honey tested for THC had almost zero, they can get a tiny amount by collecting pollen and a very tiny amount of resin heads are on the male flowers, very small amounts, PPM. Without a CB1 receptor they can not get high from THC. Bees can get drunk from fermented flowers nectar, when drunk they are not allowed to enter the hive. They have special guard bees with a breathilizer at the hive entrance....

The endocannabinoid system exerts an important neuromodulatory role in mammals. Knockout mice lacking cannabinoid (CB) receptors exhibit significant morbidity. The endocannabinoid system also appears to be phylogenetically ancient—it occurs in mammals, birds, amphibians, fish, sea urchins, leeches, mussels, and even the most primitive animal with a nerve network, the Hydra. The presence of CB receptors, however, has not been examined in terrestrial invertebrates (or any member of the Ecdysozoa). Surprisingly, we found no specific binding of the synthetic CB ligands [3 H]CP55,940 and [3 H]SR141716A in a panel of insects: Apis mellifera, Drosophila melanogaster, Gerris marginatus, Spodoptera frugiperda, and Zophobas atratus. A lack of functional CB receptors was confirmed by the inability of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and HU210 to activate G-proteins in insect tissues, utilizing a guanosine-59-O-(3-[35]thio)-triphosphate (GTPgS) assay. No orthologs of human CB receptors were located in the Drosophila genome, nor did we find orthologs of fatty acid amide hydrolase. This loss of CB receptors appears to be unique in the field of comparative neurobiology. No other known mammalian neuroreceptor is understood to be missing in insects. We hypothesized that CB receptors were lost in insects because of a dearth of ligands; endogenous CB ligands are metabolites of arachidonic acid, and insects produce little or no arachidonic acid or endocannabinoid ligands, such as anandamide.

hello,
hazy day today... and while i was looking @ my plants i'll discovered a Bee that was eating resin glads from my doors cut...

Fastenated plants are so...fastenating. did she show any signs of the mutation previous to flower?

well it's a cut... the mother looked normal.
she started in veg to fasciated...
have also another that fasciated after topping...
one is normal the other fasciated.
maybe you'r first have to top the plant than the process got triggered.

So the dude claiming he trained his bees to collect resin is full of shit. High THC Royal Jelly straight from the hive.

And that video of the spider building his web after all those different drugs. Damn!! Fake too??!
Lol

Technically spiders are not insects

They are Arachnids

Good point. Do arachnids have a cb receptor system?

If I was a spider mite, and I had a cb system I wouldn't be sucking on the leaves.
I would piercing those trichome heads and sucking up resin!

o-haze impressions...

hello,
here some shot's from pollinated o-haze...
love the males too... they are so vigorous and potent...
think about what a ball of pollen can do to some sleepy crop...
wake up the old genes and make them shine ;-)

these pollen sacks can change your world ;-)

see the resin on leafs too... good stuff :)

lower flower are also full... so early... like the THH

love it
