/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

MODERATORS
Further, actual research has shown a persons individual biology combined with the individual biology of each individual strain has much more impact on how the strains effect a person than whether they are "sativa" or "indica."
So your relationship with Grand Daddy Purple is your relationship and someone else's may be different, but you can generally be sure you'll get the same kind of high from the same strain each time.
Sure, but GDP is supposed to be the original strain (hence the "Grand Daddy" part of the name, much like OG is supposed to indicate it's the original incarnation of that strain) and the original strain was indica. It doesn't give me much confidence in the lab testing when the lab sticker says it's something it shouldn't be based on the strain it claims to be. Either the grower is lying to me or not actually having it tested correctly.
It's all about the terpenes in it, and knowing if it was indica or sativa used to be a fairly good indicator of the type of high you would experience. Now you really have to experiment with shit or have very knowledgeable budtenders. Especially with concentrates because they often add terpenes to it that may not have been in the strain they made the concentrate from, which affects the high.
While you're not wrong about how things have been crossbred, you need to be re-assessing if old wives tales from the 70's are as accurate as scientific research. "Indica" and "Sativa" were never meaningful terms for the kind of high they gave you, and we never had any evidence to support it except anecdotal evidence.
Here's my anecdote. When it became legal here, I'd try to find what tastes good. Sometimes I'd want to die laughing, others I'd want to sleep. Either way, the illegal stuff I'd had never hit nearly as hard. Then I started paying attention to packaging. Sativa was my laughing drug 100%.
Problem is, like mentioned above, most of it now is "a blend!" and it's bullshit.
