Why the strongest weed isn’t always the best choice.

strongest weed the best choice
THC ≠ Cannabis Experience
Cannabis is the whole plant. It contains hundreds of active compounds — cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids. THC is just one of them.
A Smarter Approach
Avoid overconsumption and unpleasant experiences by looking beyond THC to focus on terpenes and flavonoids - the other sensory ingredients in cannabis that shape mood effects.
The Entourage Effect
These compounds work together to create aroma, flavor, and effects. Too much THC can drown out the synergy, leading to less enjoyable results.
Potency vs. Balance
Higher THC doesn't lead to better experiences.  Richer experiences come from balance - the right recipe of overall ingredients for the mind and body.
