whats with all the back & forth ??? this guy asked for an indica type high THC content strain & i gave him a suggestion ......... thats it !


Huh? He asked for thc content, you listed THC-A content like it was the same thing. Do you not see the problem here?

Hi IC
This is my first time and I am about to place a order for some seed .i would like to get a strain that has a a really high thc % .
I am think of a indica but I don't know what strain or what breeder . I am looking for a couch lock strain .

Can anyone one tell me a good place to order from . This is my first time ordering and I'm not really sure what to expect . I have heard story about breeders selling seeds with really low THC content . Thank you . SHERM 👀

its really about growing it right as well at the end of the day.
you could be growing "elite" cuts or strains,useless if you can t
grow them right.

you are looking for indica; i d check out Verdants bubba or purple kush , or some archive gear.. karma too

I agree Mustafunk. Like for instance I just recently heard that esters contribute to the tastes and smells of some cannabis strains like Strawberry Banana along with terepnoids. I think more research needs to be done on esters, terepnoids, micro cannabinoids, flavonoids, carotenoids, and Anthocyanins. To learn more about how they play a role in the whole experience. I think the focus this year and the years to come need to be put on not just Macro Cannabinoid content but also eating cannabis raw to better utilize all of the constituents of the cannabis plant as a dietary support/supplement. For most Anthocyanins, flavonoids, and terepnoids are degraded and destroyed in the combustion process. Also another thing to focus on is high quality/grade psychedelic/ sensory enhancing indica (sativa) cannabis. That type of cannabis that just makes everything feel, taste, smell, sound, and look better or different. Real trip weed but of higher quality and potency than that of the past. But to stay on topic I remember reading on a hightimes article that Chem dog tested at 32.14 % THC content. This I don't believe to be true though for the instruments used in most labs today to test cannabinoid content are faulty and not very accurate. Also they don't specify which Chem Dog clone it is [Chemdog 91', D, #4, #3, #1, sister?]. Here's the link to the article http://hightimes.com/strains/the-strongest-strains-on-earth-2016/ . I hope this helps someone. :) Peace.

Not sure if it would test the highest but for a couch lock strain granddaddy purps (GDP) comes to mind. For a solid indica, I read some good comments on Sensi's maple leaf indica recently here.

Check out our cookies @ breedersretail, tested @ just over 28% THCA using a validated methodology.

Weren't they supposed to be limited to 40 packs? In the thread in october you said at the very beginning they were gone but three buyers jumped off.

"...[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif] 3 packs left after a couple of dropouts..."[/FONT]

Now it sounds like they became an official line.[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]

Happy new year!

People bailed, at last count there were 16 packs left afaik. Definitely not an official line as we are not making them again.

I did not experience either strain being couchlock at all. I am sure they are not over 20% thc. Most likely under. Great strains both of them.

To me if you want 30% thc, you take two tokes instead of one with your 15% strain or keif the buds.

I have a cookies x OG line that tests in the 32% THCA range, not a plant in the population below 27% THCA.

It's not all about THCA though, even 15% THCA cannabis with the right suite of terpenes is very nice to smoke, there is more to Cannabis than just the THCA content.

Is there some factual data on the terpenic entourage effect or Is it just empirical common knowledge. I mean is there some serions scientific back up to this claim of a terpenoid/cannabinoid synergy or is it still de fines as a theory ?
Not claiming its wrong I Just failed to find some serious studies on the subject

Thanks for clarifying!
Can we have some pictures of your cookie hybrids or details about this project? Did some new aromas arise? Seems the cut is stable to some degree in certain traits, if a straight hybrid with it throws similar phenos in THCA.
 
Not sure where your located , but in So Cal an outfit called Purple City Genetics has a clone called THC Bomb - has tested over 30% many times - and yields like a champ : )

They drop clones around here of it at a few dispensaries ...

Isn't THC content largely a function of trim? ie. if you get rid of most plant matter that doesn't have trichomes on it, you will have more THC in what's left.

I'm going to have to "third" mustafunk's comment:the demand for high THC strains puts even more pressure on bottle necking the genetics in cultivation. There are very few super high THC rich strains that don't have skunk, afghan, northern lights or haze genes introduced into it somewhere down the line.

On the other hand, there are genetically diverse landrace and wild genetics still out there that have some of the most complex, unique, richest flavors you can find, and the highs are incredibly warm and comfortable. Some of these variants have little to no ceiling. They are disease and mold resistant, and can tolerate a wide range of climates.

In legal states, we're pot snobs because we have access to everything and want something different. Almost all commercial varieties are strong, tasty, yet boring. Those who work with new building blocks and develop new varieties will be on the forefront (there are many people doing this right now!) People follow hype because they know no better;the more you experience, the more you realize the truth.

I think the fact that weed has been illegal around the globe has simply caused each country to have a melting pot of genetics being smashed together time and again. Bottlenecking becomes innevitable because the gene pool is pretty much going in loops.

Would be wonderful if we could all travel the world and indulge in landrace and local cultivars and broaden our horizons. Be awesome if weed was legal everywhere and no one cared about the size of thier plants , how much they smelled or how long they took to flower.
Yup, in a perfect world, bottlenecking could be avoided and breeders would be constantly adding to the genetic diversity. Bottlenecking in the marijuana industry is a result of the crimminal atmosphere which we have all had to operate under. Breeding and selecting plants fitting desired profiles for the commercial market's in each individual region/country has been the modus operandi of breeders for the past 30 years or more.

what pains and troubles me is when i read about countries with deep history of landrace genetics, being over run by dutch and north american genetics and the landraces are being polluted. Morroco and Jamaica come to mind.

but what do I know, I'm just a simple grower and pollen chucker :D

Corn is legal but it also shares the same bottle-neck effect in cultivation throughout most of the world. Suppliers and breeders have the biggest effect on the genetics in cultivation:if they focus on genetic diversity, we won't have this issue. Prohibition in cannabis is probably the biggest hurdle today, but even if cannabis becomes legal in most countries, the bottleneck effect won't be resolved until the bulk of breeders/distributors change their mindsets.

theres no way.. you need very small populations for that to occur and legal or not there is no fear of a global bottle necking given the vast pool of genetics being passed around.


I agree with the landrace part though.. I hated watching greenhouse seeds giving church to all these African growers etc. its kinda like outbreeding wild wolves with shitty little Chihuahuas

I guess i can only really speak to my own country of canada where most of the breeders have been working and reworking the same old shit for 2 decades and giving in different names LOL
