Hmmm
I find a lot of people think Narcotic = Potent or something similar and this is not at all how I judge potency.
I judge potency on 4 main things:
Onset of high - How fast does this get you blazed. One hit quit? Two Hit quit? Etc.
Height of Ceiling - How many puffs does it take before you can’t get any higher?
Duration of High - How long does it take before you are no longer high or feel like you need to smoke again?
Does the herb do anything besides just getting you high? - pain relief? Creativity boost? Motivation? Etc.
Most cookies shit, especially gelatos, are really good at #1 , but absolutely atrocious at #'s 2, 3, and 4. Couple puffs and your forehead is sweating and whatnot, but a few more and that’s it. You can’t get any higher than that. And then after 30-60min I feel like I need to smoke again to maintain. And there’s usually no effects at all, I’m just high and that’s it. Might as well dab pure THC or something as its not really any different for me in that regard.
I call things like that ‘Mids’.
The flower has to hit all 4 to not be mids in my book. Especially duration. Ideally though, the high should come on quick and hard, it should have little to no ceiling so the more you smoke the higher you feel, the duration should be at minimum 1.5hrs before you feel like you need to smoke again to maintain the high/effects/medication, and there should be some kind of effects going on besides just feeling high. If the flower doesn’t hit these metrics, I’m not keeping it.
Basically, if the herb can’t get me there in a few tokes or less, and didn’t last longer than an hour. It’s weak. If it’s one or 2 hits and I feel like I don’t need to smoke any more, and then it lasts 1.5-2+hrs before I feel like I need to smoke again, it’s potent.

sounds like it might actually be weaker then
