It's sad one of the guys ends up dying because of malaria, but i do think they owe a lot of money to the villages that gave them the seeds, since they will most likely make millions on it if not more.


And this is the first time i ever heard of something called THCv, which is honestly pretty sick and i could def see it hitting the markets soon, ill post article about it below.

The first video from vice isn't available in the Netherlands...
Could you make a tl:dr version?

Regarding the THCv, that's awesome news to hear because it tells us how little we know about weed and it's potential of course.

yea its crazy, and its pretty much about 2 cannabis investors going into African jungles to find natural grown cannabis meaning its just growing without people. They take some seeds back and grow it back home and test them to see what is inside. They can then make their own strain later on, i think it said they won some best weed award lol, which means a lot of shops in Netherlands buy it which is crazy business

Is 30x stronger weed really what the World needs...? When does a good time end up ruined by being utterly wasted and unable to function?

Seems like it’s only trace amounts in most strains but strains that orginated from Africa or have a strain from there in their genetics have higher percent

You could literally just smoke less if it’s to strong for you. Not everyone has the same tolerance and for lifetime marijuana users or concentrate smokers this would be some nice flower.

Yea some people need 1-2 joints to feel the high they want, some people couple of puffs of a joint. Its all different, no need to get stupid high lol

That is crazy! Is it already available here in Netherlands? I would love to check it out

I smoke 5 years now and the first joint of the day always makes me stoned as fuck but joints after doesn't really. So yea no need to get stupid high. It will make you even stoner if you just wait before smoking another one.

The only thing that makes this good is that you don't need to grow your weed with a lot of THC and it would make you as high as if you smoked gorilla glue, which has a lot of THC. So less weed for the same high.

But there is another thing that is also important for your high and that is CBD. In my experiences, smoking THC only has just that harsh feeling and that simple high, CBD makes it more euphoric and the 'taste' is better.

Most shops here promote new things at the bar so I'm gonna check it out maybe something mentioning it will pop up in a few weeks.

I've been always interested in this plant.
Can't believe how much beneficial it is .
and much more this THCV component, it says that it :

may help with diabetes.
may reduce panic attacks.
may help with Alzheimer’s.

Besides it is as psychoactive as THC .
Nature is power <3
