MARIJUANA CANNABIS POTENCY
The potency of a particular cannabis sample
will vary because of
many factors other then the variety. Many of these have to
do
with the natural development of the plants and their resin
glands.

Environmental factors do affect potency but there are large differences in any
variety. These inherent factors must be explained before we can talk of factors
outside the plant that affect relative potency. Strictly environmental effects
are
discussed in Chapter 19.
VARIATIONS IN CANNABIS POTENCY
Variations in Cannabis Potency Within
Varieties of Cannabis
There are noticeable differences in THC
concentrations between plants of the same variety. Differences are large enough
so that you can tall (by smoking) that certain plants are better. This is no
news to homegrowers, who often find a particular plant to be outstanding.
Five-fold differences in THC concentration have also shown up in research.
However, when you consider a whole group of plants of the same variety, they're
relatively similar in cannabinoid concentrations. Type II plants are the most
variable, with individual plants much higher than other in certain canninbinoids.
Variations by Plant Part
The concentration of cannabinoids depends on
the plant part, or more specifically, the concentration and development of resin
glands to plant part. The female flower bracts have the highest concentration of
resin glands and are usually the most potent plant parts. Seeds and roots have
no resin glands. These shoe no more than traces of canninbinoids. Smoke seeds
will give you a headache before you can get high. If you got high on seeds, then
there were probably enough bracts adhering to the seeds to get you high
On the right are the potencies, in descending
order, of the various plant parts
- Female flowering clusters. In practice you
don't separate hundreds of tiny bracts to make a joint. The whole flowering
mass (seeds removed), along with small accompanying leaves, forms the
material.
- Male flower clusters. These vary more in
relative potency depending on the strain (see "Potency by Sex,"
below).
Growing shoots. Before the plants flower, the vegetative shoots (tips) of
the main stem and branches are the most potent plant parts.
- Leaves (a) that accompany flowers (small);
(b) along branches (medium);(c) along main stem (large).
Generally, the smaller the leaf is, the more potent it can be.
- Petioles (leaf stalks). Same order as
leaves.
- Stems. Same order as leaves. The smaller the
stem (twig), the higher the possible concentration of cannabinoids. Stems
over 1/16" in diameter contain only traces of cannabinoids and are not
worth smoking. The small stems that bear the flowers can be quite potent.
- Seeds and Roots. Contain only traces (less
then .01 percent) and are not worth smoking or extracting.
