Fewer substances have so much misinformation out there than cannabis. From tall tales and one-off anecdotal experiences to disjointed marijuana laws throughout the nation and an impressive array of modern cannabis products on the market, it’s no wonder that people have different — sometimes misled — ideas about its history, effects, safety, and future.
Whether you’re a seasoned toker or are thinking about trying
flowers,
edibles, or any other cannabis product for the first time, we’re here to shed light on misconceptions that skew individuals’ — and the public’s — perception of this substance at large. Let’s take a look at some of the most widespread myths:
While, of course, not all modern weed is created equal in terms of potency, in general, it’s considered to be substantially “stronger” than what was around some 40-50 years ago. The spikes in THC levels today are thanks to better growing climate conditions and how growers harvest and process cannabis.
In the past, available cannabis was a mix of leaves, stems, and flowers, so marijuana users were consuming plant parts not rich in THC. Today’s dispensaries sell products that contain more of the feminized flower — sinsemilla — which contains higher THC levels and leads to a better quality product.
There are plenty of people who have tried cannabis a few times and attributed the few experiences to how all weed must impact them. However, that couldn’t be further from the truth. There are multiple types of cannabis plants — including Indica and Sativa — as well as hybrid strains, all of which have varying effects on different individuals. Edibles, vapes, and other ways of consuming cannabis also come with their own roster of “high” results. From cerebral and psychoactive to relaxing and sedative, modern cannabis runs the gamut of what user can get out of their next indulgence.
Also known as spice, K2, or simply “fake” weed, synthetic weed can be 100 times stronger than its natural counterpart, but you’ll be hard-pressed to find any that’s been through a safe manufacturing process. Synthetic weed circulating nowadays is typically made with highly toxic chemicals and results in extreme side effects, including everything from hallucinations and vomiting to acute psychosis. That’s why it pays to partner with a reliable purveyor of natural marijuana — like Good Tree.
