I'm not trying to talk THC down, just pointing out something that might be overlooked, and for some people might be important.

I know scientific research is inconclusive on the effects of each cannabinoid, but my personal anecdotal experience is that high THC bud or hash, or pure THC vape gives me an unpleasant, clinical high and makes me paranoid for days, while low THC (which by logic means higher CBD and terpenes) bud, or straight up medical / high CBD bud gives me a pleasant, joyful, sensual high that on very high doses reminds me of the feel of 60s-70s psychedelic art.

The negative effects of high potency bud (as opposed to roadside marijuana, old-style strains or medical bud) on some people is something I have heard from others too. Ultimately, we should all know ourselves and our relationships with each drug and plant ally we interact with.

My most joyful, amazing, incredible weed experience to date happened when I tried to replicate a CBD clinical experiment. There was a medical study showing that 300mg CBD was clinically effective in reducing anxiety, so I did the math and took the corresponding amount of full spectrum CBD oil. Apparently it had enough THC* to make me high, and it was one of the best highs of my life.

* - With 5% CBD oil, 300mg of CBD means 6 grams of oil... At the legal threshold of 0.2% THC, that comes out at 12 mg THC, which is an active dose... Not the most cost effective way to get high, but it was to test something I was curious about.
