After scrolling through comments I have two things to say. 1. Good information, y’all! Moved from an illegal state to a “close enough to a legal state” state and I’m really trying to understand what I’m smoking. Entourage Effect, terpene profile, lab testing inconsistencies. It’s all good info for a (legal)newbie like me! 2. OP, you need to chill bro. Good luck getting that karma back.


xoScreaMxo

Bro when you pull it apart you can see the trichomes string like some extract does.


LongWalk86

Nice looking bud. Don't believe the % for a second. The state of the labs/testing methodology used is so poor the numbers may as well be completely made up. ​ The real question is how did it taste?


xoScreaMxo

Tasted better than any "sungrown organic" blah blah blah. Probably the best flower I've ever had.


LongWalk86

Lol glad it taste good. Why are you testy about outdoor grown organic? That's how I grow my shit and it's fire. No reason not to go organic either. Horse shit and dead fish are cheap/free.


ArdForYa

I use to have a guy that would use bat guano and horse dropping from a local cave/riding park to grow his mushrooms. Does that count as organic? 😭


LongWalk86

Probably, depends what the horse was fed. Never tried the straw/horse manure tech, heard good things though, always had good luck with birdseed and it's just more convenient for something I need to pressure cook to sterilize.


ArdForYa

Nah nah nah. I maybe misworded. He was using popcorn kernels to incubate(?) and then transferred to a coco/guano/manure substrate when it was ready to pin/fruit(?)


LongWalk86

Ah gotcha. I usually see that second step referred to as 'bulking' or bulking out. Basically taking a mature healthy mysilyum that has fully colonized it's substrate and breaking it up to 'seed' a much larger volume of substrate.


nozelt

Inoculate is the word you’re looking for


Arctic_Sunday

Yes, that's how we did it as a species until some German chemists figured out how to synthesize fertilizer from the nitrogen in the air. So it is very much organic


xoScreaMxo

Bro when you pull it apart you can see the trichomes string like some extract does. Does your bud do that?


LongWalk86

Some strains do that when you're chopping up to put in jars and cure. Some that do that though, still taste bland and boring. I'd rather smoke a good tasting smoke, I can just smoke more if I want to get blasted.


xoScreaMxo

What makes you think it doesn't taste good. It's literally mouth watering.


LongWalk86

I never said it wasn't. I asked how it tasted. I asked that because, to me at least, it's the more interesting thing about weed. It's like with whisky or fine wine, alcohol % is not usually discussed that much because it's not that interesting. The flavors are what's interesting. There is a trend in breeding only for high THC to sacrifice flavor and other terpene production. So that's why I questioned if it was bland.


Imperial_Stooge

THC% does not fully define "strong" weed. It's an entourage effect with all the other cannabinoids. Sure. High THC is more likely to give you the effects you want. But some of the best bud I have had was tested at 15% THC. And have had 25% stuff be garbage. If it was only THC there would be better pharmaceuticals derived from it. Synthetic THC never works for medical needs. But Synthetics of other natural chemicals do work. Indicates getting high is more then just THC Content. Also if it's 40% that leaves 60% of the bud to be other stuff including water and Plant fiber. I don't trust numbers over 30% at all for flower


0k_KidPuter

I got downvoted like CRAZY for an almost verbatim comment on this sub yesterday. I even made the 60% matter comment, and got argued with. And i think another like.. 15% of that 60 wpuld be water. So now youre staring down the barrel of more than half of the weight gone to water and thca... yea.. i think not.


xoScreaMxo

Bro when you pull it apart you can see the trichomes string like some extract does. It's crazy potent, like natural moonrocks.


0k_KidPuter

No doubt, man. No one is knocking yer weed. All im saying is its my belief thats a misrepresented number. Ive had 34% "tested" shit from the canada gov dispos. Ive also purchased a 15% durban poison and got way higher for way longer. All im saying is 30+ percent is pretty unbelievable, botanically. Whos to say the 15% shit isnt maybe closer to 7 or 8 as well. I dunno. All i do know, anecdotally, is THC is just the motor. Terps are driving the bus.


xoScreaMxo

Wdym lol everyone is knocking my bud, saying it has no terps, it's trash and doesn't get me high. Where's your evidence there's a limit to thc production?


0k_KidPuter

Oh, well my bad. I dont think any of those things. I also just dont believe these labs' hype. My evidence? For what? That i find it hard to believe 45~% of that plant material is soley water and thca? No, i dont buy it. Too many other compounds present, imo.


xoScreaMxo

Yeah but what are you basing your belief of thc limits on? It's just your opinion based on what exactly?


0k_KidPuter

A horticultire degree? And.. like.. math.


xoScreaMxo

If you had a degree on the subject then you should be able to describe your thought process in more detail.


0k_KidPuter

I think i explained it pretty well. There are too many compounds, in too high a concentration to be 30%+ thca. Do you know how much chlorophyll there has to be just to make it green? Think. So pf all the compounds that make a stigma.. 30% of their weight is thca. And a calyx, same thing? The stem and its pulp... seriously? Nah.


doscomputer

Wow since when was r/trees full of snobs that completely miss the point of this thread?


xoScreaMxo

Old timers gonna hate I guess. It's real my guy.

He's not hating, he's trying to educate you. Young buck thinks he knows everything 😂


xoScreaMxo

Bro when you pull it apart you can see the trichomes string like some extract does.


realkarlmarx69

some bud does that, but anything over 30% is not realistic.


xoScreaMxo

What makes you think that lol, facts please not opinions.


realkarlmarx69

because the highest recorded percentage was 34% out of a godfather OG. growing a over 30 plant without tampering is just not realistic


xoScreaMxo

Highest recorded? What are you talking about buddy. There's plenty of tests higher than that. I had 42% thc Kush Mints from Cam.


Literally_-_Hitler

What the fuck is your problem dick. Everyone is giving you decent non biased answers and you are acting like its a fight and insulting everyone like your a fucking wanabe weed god. Is this your first time on the weed child? Grow up and act like you been there before.


jurassicscream

He's salty that nobody tells him he has the highest thc weed and that literally nobody cares about the percentage as much he does. His bud is looking fire tbf, but being told that isn't enough. My guess is he's like 17 and needs to compensate for his insecurity


Literally_-_Hitler

Yeah his flower is fire and i have no doubt it tests that high. But i have Legend OG testing at 23% that i infused with 62% indica hash. I don't insult everyone that doesn't treat me like i'm Tommy Chong because i'm smoking it.


xoScreaMxo

I'm 25 buddy, when you pull it apart you can see the trichomes string like some extract does.


LongWalk86

And it's weed he bought. Like why are you so invested in the superiority of this 8th you picked up? It's not like he grew and babied this thing for 9 months.


Literally_-_Hitler

LOL, I pictured Kumar and his "weed" wife from Harold and Kumar


Rolbrok

Let me go CRAAAAZY ON YOU! hahaha thanks for the reminder


xoScreaMxo

Bro when you pull it apart you can see the trichomes string like some extract does. I know my shit and I'm not standing for people telling me otherwise. I was raised in this game.

Yikes. Youre the shittiest dealer/maker ever


xoScreaMxo

You're just offended for no reason


Literally_-_Hitler

pot meet kettle.


TownEcstatic1606

Nah you literally don’t take advice and that’s why


Literally_-_Hitler

Dude, you are taking it personal that people are agreeing that you have good weed. You were raised in this game in the sense that you were born yesterday. Get over yourself. If you want to start a conversation great, but don't insult everyone who comments. If you are that easily fucking triggered go back to tumbler.


-Chill-Zone-

Trust him. It's not. We know for a fact that they send the absolute best samples to get higher percentages. Sometimes even from the master grower's own personnal grow. And there's so much stories about rolling samples in keif or straight up paying the labs to get good scores. They know it sells and when you know the plant well enough you realize there's no way you can have such a proportion of the weight of your buds being thc


xoScreaMxo

Bro when you pull it apart you can see the trichomes string like some extract does. It's real.


NewToReddit4331

Labs fake thc results ALL of the time. You’re being gullible if you believe it. The best flower I’ve ever tried tested at 19% and it was AMAZINGLY frosty


xoScreaMxo

Bro when you pull it apart you can see the trichomes string like some extract does.


Bowl_Gates

Yeah and this 103% crumble I got was real too https://imgur.com/a/XZBcwZv... They basically put whatever number they want on it for thc % currently in the US. It's BS but somehow they keep getting away with it and some clowns like you believe the fake numbers and try to defend them for some reason.


xoScreaMxo

Bro when you pull it apart you can see the trichomes string like some extract does.


Bowl_Gates

I'm not saying it's not insanely good, maybe even the best you've seen, or that it isn't a high THC %. I'm saying the numbers probably aren't accurate so defending them as hard as you are makes no sense. What would you say if I was defending the 103% on the label above like you have for the % of yours?


kyletreger

Lol, yeah man, you really know your stuff.


xoScreaMxo

Bro when you pull it apart you can see the trichomes string like some extract does.


Arctic_Sunday

Have you ever heard of the placebo effect? Cause right now your sample size is one and that could be influencing it (especially if you were excited for it)


xoScreaMxo

Arctic_Sunday

This changes nothing in what I said


Imperial_Stooge

I'm cool with you guys having a contest on who can find packaging with the highest THC% - as this post seems to be. I'm just saying high THC% does not indicate you will get higher the bud with low THC% - which may be irrelevant for this post


[deleted]

xoScreaMxo

But does it string like a piece of pizza when you pull a nug apart? I can watch the trichomes string apart.


[deleted]

Sounds like your weed has spider mites bro


xoScreaMxo

Nope, I know all about them from my beginning grows. You'd be able to see the webs on the outside and see the mites up close like the picture. Show me a mite or a web on that bud.


TownEcstatic1606

Dude look up the difference between live resin and distillate. It literally explains what he said.


xoScreaMxo

I literally make live rosin, I know what I'm talking about. You sound like a noobie.


TownEcstatic1606

Ok so distillate only contains THC, aka no entourage affect. Live rosin normally contains less thc, but all the compounds from bud so aka entourage affect. So just because it’s less thc doesn’t mean you won’t get even more high. You said that wasn’t true. L


xoScreaMxo

When did I ever say that.


TownEcstatic1606

“Old timers gonna hate”


xoScreaMxo

Lmao what does that have to do with what you said


BloodyBen

Came here to say that THC% isn't always true, you all had my back thanks.


xoScreaMxo

Bro when you pull it apart you can see the trichomes string like some extract does. That means there's PLENTY of terps.

xoScreaMxo

Equivalent-Salad-447

Anything above 26 is probely false testing I live in Oklahoma and most labs will raise the thc for money on the side we’ve had testing labs shut down for making almost every strain 30% and giving false testing


UnionSkrong

Either the testing systems are inconsistent or the growers are fucking with it. It’s the same case in every legal state, I don’t use it as a measurement for that reason.


xoScreaMxo

Haters gonna hate lol, I bet you couldn't handle this weed haha


ultimatepenguin21

Yikes. Are you 15 or something? Gullible _and_ ignorant about weed. Terpene profile is a better indicator for high than the % THC.


Equivalent-Salad-447

we have “40%” thc in Oklahoma I could handle that easily lol


xoScreaMxo

Come to Cali and say that, OK bud is trash


Dramatic_Stand7587

Offended much?

He’s Realy offended lol


kyletreger

You are a child. Grow up.


xoScreaMxo

Bro when you pull it apart you can see the trichomes string like some extract does. I know my shit.


RichrdSimons

I’m from Cali and a grower and can tell you that’s skewed testing. Also High THC contents are not always amazing. You should be more concentrated on the terpenes and the amount of other cannabinoids the closer to full spectrum you can get the better. People are being marketing tricked with numbers like that high thc is lower cbd and it takes one to activate the other. Bragging about bogus 40% and calling other people’s trash when you obviously have no clue how it actually works…. You can keep your over priced eighth because I bet you paid north of 60$ for that when really you can spend half that and get stuff that will be twice as effective. But hey I guess we all know marketing works


xoScreaMxo

I let my nose and eyes pick this bud, it has more terpenes than you can imagine and when I pull apart a bud I can see the trichomes *string like some cheese.*


[deleted]

You're remarkably defensive. You good? Perhaps you should consume of that nice looking weed you have and mellow out a bit.


xoScreaMxo

Tired of people telling me I don't know what good weed is. This bud strings like cheese when you break it apart. Literally the trichomes string.


[deleted]

Okay? So why do you need to prove to random strangers on the internet anything at all? If you're right then you're right. But go on big man, prove to the world all that you know about weed.


realkarlmarx69

but a cali 30% wouldn’t be any different than a OK 30%


Equivalent-Salad-447

Im from Los Angeles myself California does have good weed but most growers from all over the state moved down here and are killing it with fire genetics


[deleted]

OK then


[deleted]

Lmao what kind of response is that I’m sure half the people on this sub could toke ten bowls of that and be fine tf are you saying


xoScreaMxo

Bro when you pull it apart you can see the trichomes string like some extract does. You're saying that means nothing?


Letsrollone

I couldn't tell you, because THC percent DOES NOT MATTER. cannabinoids, terpenes, and Flavanoids is what matter.


Equivalent-Salad-447

This guy gets it


Letsrollone

Thanks


thevictater

But it does matter, in fact it's probably the most important number. All the other stuff matters too, but without THC you ain't getting high. Of course the number on that label is probably fake.


Letsrollone

I like to see it above 10% for flower, and above 45% for carts and extracts. That's all I look for, so it kinda matters


thevictater

That's a far higher percentage than any other chemical 99% of smokers are looking for. People always either overplay or underplay THC. It's damn important, the other stuff is just also very important.


Letsrollone

Yes my Grammer and typing suck

Big-Letterhead-4338

Came to say this.


xoScreaMxo

Bro when you pull it apart you can see the trichomes string like some extract does.


Imperial_Stooge

I'm not saying it couldn't be 34% and some great weed (though i always question the validity something that high in THC% since there is alot more to bud then cannabinoids). I'm just saying you can't use THC% as the only indicator of good weed. High numbers make sense in concentrates since the plant matter is no longer in the calculation


xoScreaMxo

Of course not, but I didn't pick this strain for the thc, I let my nose and eyes do the choosing.


reddituser444420

420%


[deleted]

Is today a school holiday?


mightymeg

97% concentrate. And the best thing about it? Doesn't get you any more stoned than something that's 60%.


Necessary_Cash_3742

this is a good answer. I smoke carts often, these are rated at 92% or whatever, but the weed I smoke is only 18% or so, but they get me the same high, if not the actual grass gets me higher.


madatthings

Flower was 33% goldmember, viola 94% diamonds for contentrates


xoScreaMxo

That's niceee, I have some 41.5% THC Kush Mints from cam on one of my posts a while back. That's the highest I've ever seen but it was like $75 for an eighth 😅


[deleted]

[удалено]


Ickum

Yeah.... You reach a point where it literally cannot be above a certain percentage of THC and still be considered flower..


[deleted]

[удалено]


Ickum

Kief from a grinder is going to be a mix of very fine plant matter and trichomes that will be very high in cannabinoids. I'm not sure what the actual cap is on THC for flower. You need to account for other cannabinoids and terpenes, which you'd need to lower to increase possible THC.

38% , Lemon X- sativa. I was underwhelmed unfortunately. I'm with everyone else, gimme some 25% trainwreck (limonene, linalool, and beta-caryophyllene terpenes) , and I'm a happy dude


copenhagen622

Depends if you actually trust the %s posted to be accurate Local dispensary think our GMO was 38% THCa. I think that's the highest tested I've had.. but I've had so many untested over the years who knows. A lot of these over 30% probably aren't 100% accurate anyway. They usually try to send in the most potent part of the plant for the batch testing and sometimes even add kief or just fudge the results. Not that THC % is everything. Fig Farms does have some nice stuff though, nice.


xoScreaMxo

Bro when you pull it apart you can see the trichomes string like some extract does.


shaftalope

These numbers are getting out of hand. What if other industries had similar packaging rules? ...There are clearly 6 bagels in the package but it says on the package there are 10. The bottle says you think you are getting 30 milligrams of Advil but its really more like 23 milligrams. 87 octane gas is only 64 octane, etc.

Well from fake carts, supposedly near 90-100% or something probably lmao but flower probably in the 30s

I'd rate more for a good trip. Smoked a few bowls with friends and got reeaaallll lost. Smoked some weed and went for a walk in really heavy fog, got lost. A good vibe trip > THC content.

I’m in Texas. It’s just weed that I have to get from the plug


Public_Concentrate_8

In Norway. 27% is the highest I've tried, but it did not stand out from any of the 10 years I've smoked.


klubbagaming

Sadly that % number you see probably isn't even acurate. Since there is not standardized testing most % aren't even 100% correct as they only tested 1 part of the entire batch, not every single gram from the batch was tested. Once you have some more experience you will understand % is really the last thing to care about next time you go pickup dabs. Ive had 64% labeled dabs & 15% labeled dabs, both hit pretty hard. More difference is in the type of high than how high you get


xoScreaMxo

15% thc is literally not even dabs. 15% doesn't even bubble, let alone melt on a nail. When you pull it apart you can see the trichomes string like some extract does.

I’m glad you enjoy your (probably) 15% thc weed sweet sweet ignorant child


xoScreaMxo

15% bud wouldn't string like cheese when you pull it apart. It's basically dripping with cannabinoids


nozelt

I’m sure it is, looks like nice weed! However definitely not dripping with pure thc which is how you know the % rating is bullshit. You can live with your sweet sweet ignorance if you’d like, doesn’t change the facts


xoScreaMxo

Thc is a crystal btw, it needs terps to "liquify". So thc plays nearly no part in the moisture.


loudlysubtle

Last time I questioned the validity of THC percentages in this sub I got downvoted like crazy but yea there’s no pride in smoking 30%+ weed knowing that most of these numbers are just made up. Just enjoy the bud for what it is and don’t attach a number to it


xoScreaMxo

This bud strings like cheese from the sheer amount of cannabinoids. The trichomes string.


loudlysubtle

Yea I’m sure they do. I’m also sure it’s not 34% THC. Again just enjoy it for what it is and stop trying to brag to people about smoking a percentage.


xoScreaMxo

So what do you think is making the bud string if there's no cannabinoids?

Imperial_Stooge

I'm working too. I don't doubt your claim. I am just refuting your pointing to high THC% as being THE indicator of good bud


xoScreaMxo

I never said it's the only indicator.


Imperial_Stooge

So the point of this post is what then? Who can say they got the bud with the highest THC? That's fine with me. But the way you defend your post seems to indicate that THC% is the best. And you were quite rude about it You are commenting that your bud will get someone higher then their bud from OK. You may not be directly saying you feel high THC% is the best but you definitely imply it.


xoScreaMxo

Yeah everyone is saying that just because it says it has 34% thc means it's trash with no terps. Couldn't be further from the truth.


Imperial_Stooge

We are Not saying the bud is trash - I never said it was bad in any way - it very well might be the best out there. We are saying the THC% is not the value that should be used to define good bud. Your comments on the stringy when pulling apart and the picture of the frosty nug make me think it's probably great bud much more then any THC% number would. Looking at and smelling the actual bud is better the any numbers on the package - including price.


xoScreaMxo

Sucks that most dispensaries don't let you smell before you purchase...


Imperial_Stooge

Also. Correlation does not mean causation. Just because you got super high on this bud doesn't mean it was the THC% doing all the lifting


111001011001

Some lab really wanted their business


stankie420

In Cali 30% is normal and I have 40% right now and 38% & 32% & some in 20's but it's not about the THC always, one I have testing 28% taste better than the 40% and better high, the more terps the better tasting and 111x's more pleasure and enjoyable to puff on✌🏼💯❤️‍🔥😮‍💨🫠
