Would you say there’s currently two forms of “weed”?

The first being something like what nostr:npub1f5pre6wl6ad87vr4hr5wppqq30sh58m4p33mthnjreh03qadcajs7gwt3z grows. Natural and without synthetics added to grow, that people have been smoking for millennia.

The second being the legalized , state sanctioned version. These are mono-cropped / mass produced with a bunch of synthetics added to grow.

I’ve had a couple close buddies who have really struggled with excess use of the latter form. Guys who have graduated law school and were previously high achievers.

I also think the latter has had an impact on an aging family member’s cognition decline as they age.

Sure. That’s one way to differentiate types of weed. I think terpene profiles matter a lot too, as does the individual consumer.

I would imagine the equation is a polynomial with multiple variables at play.

After doing temp work in something like ~20 commercial farms, yes.

I just finished helping harvest on a 100% organic and "no spray"* farm, and thought they didn't exist anymore in my area.

All the other farms use poison, synthetic fertilizers, and even heavy metals on their plants.

* The owner does spray an organic foliar feed once or twice during the vegetative state.

I thought the more controversial take was mushrooms. I am sure I saw studies a long time ago showing psilocybin has the ability to potentiate neurogenic growth. 🤷🏻‍♂️

The concentrated robo pot is the problem. I know several people who have negative outcomes from using the robo pot. Just like processed food, over processed cannabis is unhealthy in my opinion.
