Why High THC Weed Doesn’t Actually Make You Higher: The THC Plateau Explained

So when you see a cannabis strain at 30%, remember that it won’t automatically deliver twice the intensity of a 15% THC strain.

These include individual tolerance, one’s unique body chemistry, and the weed’s terpene and cannabinoid profile, to name a few. Additionally, the consumption method also affects the intensity, duration, and onset of the high.
