What is the strongest marijuana?

Answer 1

Saying "White Widow" is not being very specific given that there are roughly thirty strains of cannabis all from different breeders that are all genetically different from each other and also different from the original but still are called White Widow. The original White Widow was renamed Black Widow a number of years back now. Anything that carries the name of White Widow is a fugazi, a fake, a phoney, a knockoff or at the very best an F2. Black Widow (the original White Widow) was a creation of Shantibaba, the owner of Mr. Nice Seeds, back when Shantibaba was part owner of Green House Seeds. Black Widow is true quality and it is potent, but it is not one of the strains with the highest level of THC available today. If someone can find a cutting of a pre-98 Bubba Kush they will have something that is good, but again it is not going to test out as being the most potent cannabis available today. Any that is not pre-98 will not be close to being the most potent. While there are not as many different Purple Haze varieties as there are White Widow varieties you still will find genetically different versions of Purple Haze from different breeders. Some are good, but none will rank on the top of the list of high THC strains. Also, there are different methods of testing for THC used by different laboratories and samples of the same strain taken from the same buds from the same plants could test out 5% higher or lower, and more, depending on what test procedure is used. Because of that it is almost impossible to accurately say what strain has the highest level of THC. Plus, since a high comes from not only THC or only cannabinoids but also terpenoids and all being in optimal percentages to work with and enhance each other rather than working against each other a strain with a lower percentage of THC than others could give a stronger more potent high if along with the percentage of THC the other cannabinoids and the terpenoids are in better percentages.

White widow, Bubba Kush, Purple Haze. Or if you lace it with something.

I do not believe the information about Green Bud is accurate. The breeder does not even claim a THC level of 76%, there is no THC level claim made at all ... that is unless it the one mentioned is another Green Bud from a different breeder. If so, who is the breeder of the Green Bud that is supposed to have such a high THC level?

Answer

I would say the strongest weed I've smoked and did a little research on would be Super Silver Haze

First place winner of three consecutive High Times Cannabis Cups for the hydro category (1997, 1998, 1999), Super Silver Haze also claimed first prize in the High Times Grand Cup in 1998.

Super Silver Haze was a creation of Nevil and Shantibaba and they are as good as breeders can get, but if you are going to rely on number of Cup wins as validation of potency then you might want to consider some of the strains that have won 7 Cup or 10 Cups or 15 various Cups over the years.

Nevil and Shantibaba do not even give a THC percentage for Super Silver Haze on Mr. Nice Seeds strain selection page for Super Silver Haze so it's rather difficult to claim it to be of higher potency than strains that do list tested THC levels.

While Barney's Farm Tangerine Dream is a bit on the unstable side it has been tested to have a minimum level of THC of 25% and Sannie's Seeds Herijuana has tested up to 25%.

I am as big of a fan of Nevil and Shantibaba's work as anyone but Super Silver Haze I am highly confident that Super Silver Haze is not near 25% in THC.

When finished and released Nevil's Ultimate Haze, that he wants to use the word Grail in the name when released, might be 25% or higher in THC, but we will have to wait to find out.

There are a couple...

"Kush" is a type of marijuana that comes in many many strains and can be indica or sativa (but let's face it, mostly sativa - very cerebral high !) and with varying potencies of THC content [ive literally smoked lemon kush that had a THC content of 32% !!!] any Kush grown properly is sure to get you ripped.

OG Kush, Master Kush, lemon kush, grapefruit kush,orange kush,bubble kush, BC (British Columbia) kush, purple kush, afgahn and Hindu kush are just a few. You will always know its kush because it has a distict taste and the smell, most importantly - the high will mess you up hahah.

Other than that,

White widow

Ak-47

Northern lights

Jack Herer

Big bud

jamaican pearl

skunk #1

super lemon haze (cannabis cup winner 08', 09')

morning glory

sweet tooth

great white shark

purple haze

hawiian haze

silver haze

Anything with haze in it is generally amazing stuff. (I know a guy who knows a guy that is working on "hoser haze" specifically grown through as many variations it takes to get a winner from the contributing BC kush, super lemon haze, and morning glory strains; he's trying to get the sativa/indica ratio to 65/35 for an epic All-Canadian bud)

Right now Im blown away by this new "cottoncandy" bud, its a cross between afghani and blueberry seedlines, mostly indica - and its a one hit wonder. I packed a regular sized bowl for a teenager who burns through a half ounce per week in my bong and i was finished,- like legally retared stoned ! I would nominate that for the cannabis cup this November. So look out for that strain.

Im speaking in Canada so the weed is always A+ and we rarely pay gram for gram prices, nice and worth it up here lol.

finally, if you 'age' cannabis it will increase the potency of what ur inhaling i.e. put that bud in a glass jar or baggie that's air tight and then get other weed to smoke and forget about the aging bud so you can have it for a rainy day. Its similar to hash lol, could give a detailed answer but its almost 4am and I have to get high before bed so peace,, hope that helped.

The reason anything with Haze in it, well anything well bred with Haze in it, is Haze, true Haze is made up of three pure sativa strains, one from Mexico, one from Colombia, one from Thailand and some years later one from India was bred into it making it a combination of four sativa strains. As "Joe Haze," as one of the "Haze Brothers" who created Haze in the late 60's said originally there were four phenotypes nicknamed Gold, Silver, Purple, and Blue. Despite it's intense high Haze remained pretty much unknown other than those in California area it was created and then it did spread up and down the West Coast some but not until the late 1970s, when famed breeder Sam Skunkman started creating and refining his own batches. By 1984, he had taken them to Holland and started selling them under his Sacred Seeds moniker did it become known to the entire world. For various reasons Original Haze earned a reputation as a finicky, difficult plant to grow.

In the 1980s, the legendary seed producer Nevil Schoenmakers bought a selection of beans from a connoisseur in New York that included the Haze Brothers' Original Haze. After he took those seeds to Amsterdam and embarked on a breeding project to stabilize them, Schoenmakers released Nevil's Haze to the general cannabis-smoking public, and everything changed. As marijuana historian Mr. Haze 420 said to me, "Nevil's Haze is some of the most powerful sativa I've ever smoked." (That was said in 2013)

An earlier message said "Kush" is a type of marijuana that comes in many many strains and can be indica or sativa (but let's face it, mostly sativa - very cerebral high !)" That is incorrect. A true Kush is a pure indica. It originated in the Hindu - Kush mountains in Afghanistan and Pakistan. It has been crossed with various sativa strains and sativa crosses but those are not true Kush strains.

In the last message where it said "finally, if you 'age' cannabis it will increase the potency of what ur inhaling" that is incorrect. Increased potency would equate to increased levels of THC and that does not happen once a plant has been harvested.

Newly harvested cannabis contains cannabinoids that are in an acidic form, THCA, CBDA, CBNA etc. and THCA is not very psychoactive. What needs to occur is called decarboxylation, the carboxyl group is released from the molecule as carbon dioxide and water vapor changing the THCA into THC, and CBDA into CBD and CBNA into CBN.

This process will occur VERY SLOWLY over time if freshly harvested cannabis is properly dried and then properly jarred and properly stored. But full decarboxylation will occur rapidly when heated. When marijuana is smoked, the THC behind the hot spot is vaporized as the hot air from the burn is drawn through the joint or pipe bowl to the unburned material. The liquid THC and other cannabinoids have a boiling point of between 180-200 C (355-392 F). Before they turn gaseous, at around 106 C (220 F), the carboxyl group is released from the molecule as carbon dioxide and water vapor. At that point you have full potency, all THCA, CBDA and CBNA have become THC, CBD and CBN.

But that does not increase the actual percentage of THC. When cannabis is tested and said to be some certain percent THC that is a combination of both THC and THCA since it is known that when smoked or vaporized or heated to make edibles decarboxylation will occur and what will be inhales or consumed will be fully active THC, but the actual THC percentage or level or strength or potency will not have increased over what it was when freshly harvested.

What you actually gain the most through proper curing is the changes that occur to terpenoids and flavanoids. The result will be a smoother smoke, a more flavorful smoke and a more aromatic smoke.

The curing increases potency myth is one of a near endless list of myths and fallacies and misunderstandings and half truths and misconceptions and urban legends and inaccurate old hippie folklore that flood each and every online 'grow site' and are passed on to each 'new crop' of growers and since it was read on a 'grow site' they consider it to be factual, to be as true as if carved in stone and handed down from the mountaintops. But most of what someone 'learns' on 'grow sites' is inaccurate. I have been a member of almost every single 'grow site' that has existed since the days of the original CannabisWorld and Overgrow and been a mod on a number of them and an admin on one so I am very familiar with what is 'taught' on such sites. I have also toked since 1968 and grown since 1972 and have over the years studied a great deal of botany and horticulture along with cannabis specific research and in all honesty I can say if anyone wants to learn how to grow cannabis they should avoid each and every 'grow site' and instead purchase several good books on botany and horticulture and also two of three of the top rated 'how to grow books' and learn what you need from them and avoid being taught all the myths and fallacies and misunderstandings and half truths and misconceptions and urban legends and inaccurate old hippie folklore that is pawned off as being 'growing knowledge' on 'grow sites.'

As for Cotton Candy, there might be a new strain/form of it out but Cotton Candy itself is anything but new. It was rather popular for a short while in the late 90's and maybe even until around 2001.
