Several months back, when I told my sister that one of the reasons I’m planning on moving out of South Carolina is because where I’m moving to (Puerto Rico) has a medical weed program that I’m eligible for since I have Autism and ADHD, she told me that medical weed was laced with fentanyl.
Some ignorant pastor was raising a fuss about how weed has gotten so much stronger (and thus more dangerous) over the years. Which may be true, to an extent, but his evidence was that pot in the 70s had at most 20% THC, but today’s vapes are close to 90% THC.
Vapes are concentrated. 1g of vape can last for weeks, while 1g of flower is a good start to the afternoon.
It do be strong as fuck tho.
Even flower is more potent than it was in the 70’s. It’s been widely cultivated specifically for higher THC. I remember when someone bred a 30% THC concentration strain was a big deal when I was still subscribed to High Times in the late 90’s/early 2000’s. Now 35% THC is pretty common in cheap weed at a dispensary.
35%? For real? I never see anything higher than 22%ish.
I have heard of some places fudging the numbers because a lot of people just buy whatever has the highest THC%.
I’m sure it is getting stronger, because when there’s money to be made, nature, it, uh, finds a way.
But this pastor was talking like a first timer could die by hitting a 90% vape. Total nonsense.
