Re: Why 'skunk' smokers are 18 TIMES more likely to become psychotic than other cannabis users [Re: TheWallpf]

reading the posts about this article I'm more confused about what skunk is. I thought it was strains of weed which had been cross-bred to be genetically more potent and grown under lights, again to maximize potency. Is that right?

Could you have a strain of weed which is as strong or stronger than skunk but isn't skunk?

Yes its stronger.

Hence we smoke less at once - go figure...  ffs



that's a bit naive. To compare with alcohol, countries where hard liquor is the drink of choice (eg. Russia) have much higher rates of alcoholism. And when the government tries to change habits through increasing tax on spirits and reducing it on beer, people who switch tend to end up drinking less alcohol overall. I'd expect to see the same thing with weed. People who smoke skunk would tend to consume more THC overall.

Yes 'Sour Diesel' for example.

Plus there are several different kinds of Skunk and dozens of strains that are half Skunk and half something else.

That article is ridiculous, there are also many different kinds of hash and the THC content would depend on what the hash was made from.
