Part 1/2:
I will try to make this response as respectful as I can but I am finding it very hard to do so.
Given that you have a severe misunderstanding of what you are talking about, but you are writing as if you have complete knowledge.
I will have to reply in two messages as I cannot fit my entire post into 1 post (character limit rules of this forum).
Point of my post was the same as pretty much all my posts. Discussion forum mean anything to you? If you want to incorrectly claim the existence of a non-existing common misconception you should start a blog.
The point of your post was to bring up stuff which has nearly no significance to the original questions, just purely for the effect of looking like the smarter person for calling me out.
I hope people reading what follows in my post here can make out who is actually wrong.
If people choose to buy into your bullshit then by all means, let them.
The guy was asking about the couch-lock high, you are reading way, way too much into this.
I was not trying to explain the intricate differences between various high but I simply stated the fact that it is the phenotype which determines whether you get a head-high or a body-high.
I wasn't bringing any other cannabinoids into the discussion because; first of all we know VERY LITTLE (and you seem to have gravely misunderstood basic properties about certain cannabinoids) about the interaction between said cannabinoids and we do not know which ones exactly interact which each other and cause certain effects.
If you want to
assume and make presumptions based on no evidence then go ahead, but don't try to divert the original point.

CBD does influence the high by counteracting the effects of THC but that's besides the point. You contradict yourself (and obviously don't really understand) what it means what you quoted from another article. You claim CBN does not influence the high while it gives a sickening feeling as you wrote in your first and last post. One could say it factually doesn't influence the 'high', it influences the effect you get from using, which indirectly obviously affects the feeling you get hence the high as well.
Cannibinoids do interact and cause different effects based on the different levels in the particular strains but that has nothing to do with the fact that it's the phenotype which determines the overall high.
I already said that the interaction between cannabinoids affect the high, I don't know why you feel like you have to divert a simple damn question into this time wasting discussion about stuff nobody really knows the facts about.
I have tried high CBD strains (relative 1:1 ratio of CBD:THC) and I have still found the phenotype to be the overall determining factor, sure high CBD strains have different properties than most other strains, which mostly is due to the low amount of THC relative to the other cannabinoids, compared to most strains which for a long time have been grown to maximize THC.
I don't see how high CBD strains have anything to do with the original questions.
I have not contradicted myself once, I will however prove how you are sorely mistaken in your assumptions.
I cannot bring up caveats and hedges in everything I write here just because you think I should explain everything (when we don't even know the true interaction, and thus I would just be guessing very much like you are).

Oh, so we're talking about a 'real high' only... I however choose what my response is a response to, not something you decided afterwards. In this case it was obviously the first sentence if post #552. Amber trichs DO increase the couch lock feeling and while you claim that is a common misconception you actually explained the reason for it several times in this thread.
Yes I was talking about the real high, not some made up stuff about CBD having sedative properties.
My response was directed at a particular question and I was not trying to bring the interaction between cannabinoids we know very little about into a simple fucking question.
Again here you are reading way too much into the me writing "real high".
What I mean by that is simply the overall, underlying high we get from Sativa vs Indica dominant strains.
I don't know why you think you have caught me contradicting myself, you are a sensationalist trying to stir shit up for no reason.

It's called experience rather than blindly copying an article and pretending to understand it. Have you ever even smoked a high CBD strain or hash? High CBD strains have inherently low THC, CBD counteracts the effects of THC (high), which relatively increase the effects that cause a body relaxed stoned.
It's called being arrogant, thinking you can add to a simple question by bringing up false information and trying to twist the attention of people reading this.
Instead of dabbling into discussions like this I like to stick to the
facts.
Which also is why I answer simple questions in the simplest fashion instead of trying to impress people, bringing up interactions, which while they do exist and PROBABLY have an effect, have zero relevance to the question that was posed.
I could also go into the chemistry underlying the various cannaibinoids but I was simply trying to answer a simple question in a simple way.
That does not mean I don't know that there is a huge amount of information omitted in my original answer but all that information is not always necessarily critical to a simple damn question.
