As for "super strain", that's all crap. Different strains of cannabis have different effects on us, so yes you can make a new strain that emphasizes those effects more by breeding, but, why call it "super"? But, the conditions it is grown in have as much to do with the plant as the strain itself, same with growing/flowering/curing time. It's just a marketing ploy to call something "super".


I feel bad for the people using it for medical reasons because the are considered criminals for doing something illegal, why the government has yet to legalize medical cannabis, I'll never know. These people are grabbing on because it is a natural cure and can help with most of the symptoms, but yet have to fear prosecution if the Feds 'feel' like cracking down that week.

Tell me that's not crazy?

You can cross breed different Strains of Weed. So i guess that would count as a 'Super Strain'

That just isn't right to do...it doesn't have to be Super to offer it's benefits..that's why we have Hash!

The new varieties contain enhanced levels of therapeutic compounds, including an appetite suppressant cannabinoid called THCV, which the company hopes will be used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes, obesity and other metabolic disorders.



Yeah, but even when you cross breed, the plants are still natural, these are enhanced in a lab

It's illegal



Not everywhere..

seriously the lack of knowledge the majority of people have for this plant is outstanding, but I guess that's what happens when you feed propaganda in schools.

Federally, yes it is. In all states.

Decriminalized but not Legal. But almost essentially the same.

the home growers in places like holland are the ones at the top of this field, not some government quack.
They ,the growers have already created plants that are 25 percent thc upon harvest-any more and the plants would melt-ha ha ha
They have also shortened flower time as short as possible, all thats left is taste, color, so so what can the docs do but wreck a good thing

My opinion exactly, the Finola cannabis that they use for research in the UK (as per my previous post that you probably missed) is THC free practically. But it looks the same and smells the same. It's heartbreaking...but it does have amazing uses...just don't understand what they have against the THC

We cross DNA every time we have children and we never label them super.


There is no original strain of cannabis, it grows throughout the world and strain mix naturally, so technically they are all 'super' strains. Each place has their own characteristics of the plant, we just mix those, and some time countinually mix to create a different strain.

Same way some people are 1/4 of each nationality and some are even more intricate.
