I know that's what they teach you to tell the customers, but to hardcore stoners all that is nonsense. And besides, so much of the effects of cannabis has to do with how it was cured and when it was harvested. Most weed is hybrids and I've found that the whole indica/sativa thing is mostly placebo. I don't feel vast, distinct differences between strains. They all do the job, and they don't prevent me from doing my job. There isn't any that "couchlocks" me. I noticed distinct highs more in the pre-legal days. Now all weed is pretty strong and bred for big buds and fast harvest. That's what the market wants. True pure sativas and indicas are few and far between. I go to a lot of dispensaries. You can't even find proper hashish. I've found it now and then at boutique stores. There's just not demand for it. And the Eastern outdoor crop and methods aren't used either. The more I research the history of weed around the world, the more I feel shortchanged. Even in this age of cheap, amazing, plentiful weed, it just feels so factory-made or something. I know it's a lot of different kinds of farms, led by different kinds of hippies and stoners and corporates too. But the romance of some special skunk weed coming into town when the only other options were BC mids or Mexi brick is gone.
I shouldn't bitch. I'm grateful and all. I'd just do things differently if I ran weed shit.
