All it is is the same plant grown with actual care, genetics do of course play a large role in this. <br />I am by no means against cannabis being medicalised this way but to discredit cannabis' medicinal benefits in a smoked joint would be inaccurate. This practice is what has lead to the findings. The right to self titrate and growing for any adult should undoubtably be allowed reguardless of the medical potential of this plant. <br /><br />Smoking a joint with 400ml of cannabinoid in it will deliver approximately 4ml of cannabinoid inhaled. Thats about 1ml short of of Sativex squirt. You can use Sativex till you feel relief just like you can smoke joint till you feel relief. <br /><br />Bedrocan BV offer THC:CBD strains 19:>1, 12:>1 as well as Bediol which is a CBD rich cannabinoid. <br /><br />There also needs to be a distinction made between terpines and THC as the combination creates the Indica/Sativa effect which is more likely to be the contributing factor towards mood enhancement. Ethan Russo has done some excellent work on this.Greg de Hoedthttp://cannabiscure.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4034888015247889941.post-90444032754414910852012-01-30T14:19:29.068-08:002012-01-30T14:19:29.068-08:00Yes, very true.

I should have added in that there are a whole world of variations in between.Heather Doranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01743182952112081912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4034888015247889941.post-21125653392657954202012-01-30T14:13:20.618-08:002012-01-30T14:13:20.618-08:00This is an excellent article, generally accurate a...This is an excellent article, generally accurate although the information about THC/CBD ratios is incorrect. Cannabis connoisseurs select different strains to grow and enjoy with different ratios, and it is not just the 100+ cannabinoids but also the flavonoids and terpines, all of which impact on the effect and experience.<br /><br />It is directly comparable to choosing a bottle of wine.Peter Reynoldshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02181779476005970939noreply@blogger.com
