Potency Levels Have Increased Significantly & Now There Are 4 Major Forms Of Marijuana
/If you do not use pot today, you don’t understand much about it. Marijuana possibly smoked in your youth (as recent as the 1990s) contained on average 3% thc (the cannabinoid in pot that makes a user high).
Today:
Plant-form marijuana - is generally not available with less than 18% thc and most of it contains thc levels in the mid-20s.
Liquid and solid concentrates - forms did not exist 20 years ago.
Liquids are typically “vaped” and can vary in potency - 18% - 25% - 50% - 85% THC is seen.
Solids are “dabbed” and are nearly 100% pure THC.
Edibles - the “pot brownie” has given way to an unending array of edible products (food and drink) with varying potencies - all strong. You will find gummy bears with 18mg of THC, candy bars with 420mg of THC, cookies with 1000mg of THC and everything in between.
It’s time for parents to wake up!
Note: Liquid and solid concentrates are added to foods/drinks to create edibles. Non-food products infused with THC or claimed to contain marijuana, have typically been created using these concentrates as well, i.e. tinctures, tampons, lotions, patches, etc…
