I never said conspiracy… it’s more marketing and rich boy methods… this is what happens when multimillion dollar industries touch our stuff… they find ways to change it for their own good… not ours… I’ve seen upper regs do way better than the dispensary crap… so… just my take on it… I know weed… it’s been a huge part of my life for 30 years… and I have to say… things have changed for the worse… now understanding more as I grow… I see the angles they take to exploit us… and our beloved marijuana… and the separation of thc and cbd is shameful… I mean flower should have more than .50 cbd when thc is 25 percent we are talking a half a percent bro… I don’t recall it being that damn low. And it makes it weak sauce

I blame the THC testing industry. Most people buy by the numbers, so the highest THC content wins. When selecting for high THC, one is simultaneously selecting for low CBD.

Na bro… here I’ll show our menu… as I’m on it now… they don’t have shit for cbd… unless it’s a cbd strain @ReikoX
So all the way through it all… the highest cbd… is northern lights oil… coming in at .57 cbd… that’s the highest cbd on a thc strain… pathetic . so that’s 81.87 thc… to .57 cbd… the thc numbers are for the foolish … I agree… because it’s barely the only thing getting you the effects… it’s mainstream tactics cluttered with greedy minds… i laugh when people are concerned about only thc… silly kids…
Right because everyone wants that 30% THC “strain”. So breeders select for the highest THC. If there were no selection, it would be 25% high CBD, 25% high THC, and 50% would be a mix of the two. That’s not to mention the 100s of other minor cannabinoids that could be there at a very low percentage.

Ultimately… people don’t need the separation from thc . Unless they are not wanting thc… there’s plenty of cbd only crap out there… like I said… this is to make them the most… because there’s a whole market for people who want both present at higher levels… so for people wanting both… would have to pay separately for the cbd… which used to come right along with the buzz of thc… now seems a separate product causing thc users to have to buy more product for the same result . Hence… the fuckery that happens

I think the focus is strictly on thc like u said… they can Tax more when it’s above 25 percent I think it was. . It’s a money scheme at best… you guys would be sickened by the quick fizzling high you get from dispensary crap… I remember good Reggie being better than that

I think in the early days they wanted to shortcut pot, taking as much as they could from alcohol regulation. they treated THC like ABV in beer/wine/spirits…genpop STILL doesn’t realize it ain’t like that.
Germany is using THC for tiered legalization based on age groups…it aint the 30%THC boring strains thats gonna mess with teenagers, a 15% Durban Poison way way way more agressive!

If I want something high potency I’ll smoke hash.
If I’m smoking flower 15% will do just fine.
I don’t want to drink everclear. Except that one time I don’t want to talk about.

The out of whack THC/CBD ratios are also why I open pollinate and mix all the strains I grow. Landraces are so good because there’s less selection, if any selection at all.
A big field with a wide variety of genetics will provide something for everyone.
We need as much variety as there are people, instead of breeders selecting for flavors and percentages.
Allow it all to mix, as it happens in the wild, as we humans mingle with eachother, this is what makes landraces so precious. The diversity. But for this to succeed organic methods are required. Synthetic fertilizers are again narrow thinking, assuming we humans know what nature needs while we barely know what we need ourselves.
Think outside the narrow box of limitation and embrace diversity. Nature has many pleasant surprises in store for us, if only we would trust that which created and sustains us more and stand back in observance with our hands in our pockets, interfering less, cultivating trust as much as the plants.
A balance of cultivated and inbred along with landraces and mixing everything seems like a nice balance, and this is what is already happening. It’s all good.
