Uhhh what, 10mg is pretty decent and you could just take two doses? Some shit products advertise 500mg THC and barely do anything, others advertise 10mg and put you on the floor. I suspect the products claiming super high doses are either not decarbing or blatantly lying.

Also obligatory THC isn't everything, other cannabinoids are important

This is missing from the discussion. High THC can go along with quality but does not have to. There is high THC crap that I find one dimensional. Isolated THC in a medicine turned out to be unpleasant for many people.

In the plant It's a bit like you can only stuff so much of a cannabinoid into the resin without decreasing something else.

In NYC the weed industry is the wild west. It's near impossible to find anything under 20mg/piece because there's no regulations (the whole rollout of legal weed there is a clusterfuck). I have heard a LOT of stories from friends who knew nothing about doses and assumed that a 100mg pure THC nerds rope (or similar) would be fine. I once accidentally took 35mg thinking it was 5mg and had to Uber home sick. I've heard of kids getting into their parent's stash too

I now live in Canada where the image is from and I'm sooo grateful that it's both cheap and regulated.
