So I been wanting to start a thread dedicated to the growers and the medical benefits you find with certain strains. I have recently noticed the more I grow and particular strain/pheno. I can dictate what strains have the highest medical quality and the ones that dont are took out the garden. I will kick it of with DNA sour cream. Out all the strains in my garden this has the best medical quality. It offers immediate relief for depression,nausea, and great motivator. I would recommended it to anyone lacking motivation and I even replaced the pepto bismol in my medicine cabinet with sour cream. I love to here about other strains so feel free and jump right in.
In my opinion this is making it a bit too scientific. I know that the MJ can help on several stuff like what you explain, but the amount of THC, your mood, amount, delivery method etc. has a lot to do with it too.
Indicas often hold more CBD, which gives you a more meallow high compared to a clean THC-high. Different amount of these two main active cannabinoids will alter the high, but i really doubt that you can write down so precisely what illnesses the different strains affect.
I would make two categories:
1: High THC - Low CBD:
2: High CBD levels:
I'm very sure a lot of people will disagree on this, but i just find it too much sometimes. No matter what it is still two main ingredients we take CBD and THC - (and a lot of different cannabinoids with little or no effects on a high).
Maybe put up like this to simplify:
THC - racy effects that's mostly in the head - (the Espresso of Marijuana)
CBD - less racy and more calm body stone - (the Morphine of Marijuana)
Mix these two things to the coctail that fits you.
It just makes no sense to me to put a whole hybrid strain into any group since most of our strains are hybrids between Sativa and Indica leaving us with a GREAT variety in highs from each phenotype. One pheno could produce more CBD than another. A person who buys a packet of 5-10 seeds might not even get the same pheno, that someone else used to describe the strain.
Just my thoughts of this subject
