But in the world of weed, the truth is that there’s so much more to quality marijuana than its potency or how stoned you’re going to get. Cannabis contains hundreds of other compounds that play an important role in the overall quality of your experience. Consumers should also keep in mind that potency or THC/CBD levels don’t translate to quality; you can come across strains with as much as 30% THC but do you really need all that THC? Keep in mind that high THC levels have been associated with paranoia and anxiety.
