Here is something else to ponder about the percentages of resins.
High powered pot is not new .... it has produced pretty much the same percentages of THC and CBC's over history.

Back in the 70's for instance, what passed for smokable marijuana was the males and females mixed together, along with all the leaves. A lot of that came from Mexico and it was easier and certainly more profitable to mix them. Educated smokers knew that the buds was where the resins were and began to seperate them; even George Washington made mention in his diaries that on one season he was unable to seperate the males out before they produced pollan.

It is such propaganda these days to say that "this is not your parents marijuana." Ugh!!!!

In the 60's and 70's, there were powerful strains like Columbian Gold, Thai Stick, Panama Red, creeper weed, etc....

Michael Pollan did a good series on "The Botany of Desire"... Check it out.

Man you got no idea whats going on next door!

I wasn't at all surprised to learn that world class gardeners were producing high-powered pot in secret growing rooms all over Europe.

How about Dunwoody Georgia in a heavily surburban Family neighborhood of the Murphy Chandler area of Atlanta. I have a college buddy that converted an entire Georgian two story brick home into the finnest farm you have ever seen. Mylar ceilings and walls, Grow lights and Co2 pumped into each of the 4 bed rooms of his house. He is a contract programmer for all the big boys Southern Pacific, Coke, Southern bell, The State, list goes on.
His main ambition is to produce the finnest pot on Earth. Northern lights, Skunk Weed, and just way more info I care to know.
Crazy pride. He got nailed by spider mites once and laughed my butt off at the entire length he went.
Married and 2 kids now, I never go by anymore!

Everone grows it. Its growing all along Hwy Route 66 from kids chunking the seeds out the window. I'd love to chunk a few hand full of seeds at the Govenor's Mansion in Atlanta. I heard that stuff grows like a weed.
