New cannabis compound may get you 30 times higher than THC

Italian scientists have discovered a new cannabis compound that could be as much as 30 times stronger than tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the stuff in weed that gets you high.

However, the researchers admit that the newfound cannabinoid, named tetrahydrocannabiphorol, or THCP, has not actually been tested for its intoxicating effects.
============================================================
Sounds good but the more potent the pot the more likely you are to go paranoid & have a real bad trip.

Interestingly, the only difference between THCP & THC is that this new compound has a 7-carbon alkyl side chain as compared to THC's 5-carbon.

Sure, but poison ultimately, is in the dose.

Determining the correct dose when you have a 30X difference in potency might be like fooling with a loaded gun, especially if you don't have the right equipment & are not skilled in working with these materials.

If you're buying **** off the street and/or are self-administering looseleaf, sure.

Either way, nowhere near as problematic as existing drugs out there right now.

If this report is true, this stuff is pot with an afterburner attached. It may only be a matter of time before it hits the streets. Net stop: EMS & ER.

I can barely handle today's potent stuff, so I'll just stick with the occasional bong hit and let my wife laugh at what a lightweight I am, thanks.

Suppose you succeed in making a few grams of this stuff & you even have a microbalance (Amazon) on which to weigh out milligram quantities. You roll up a doobie but how much do you put in of the potent, new stuff? Recall, the paper that I quoted had not yet tested this stuff on people. You might get so stoned that you forget where the bathroom is. Very risky playing around with very potent unknowns. And I'm a degreed chemist with a lot of recreational drug experience.

Well yeah, that would be looseleaf, vs buying and using a calibrated dose.

I thought edibles were too strong or certain monster strains that can actually make you rollmop than pass out. K2 and Spice are bad enough without screwing with our natural herb. I had to quit dabbing because I built up such a THC tolerance that nothing could get me buzzed. Moderation is the only way to recreate. I always hated the one or two slobs that got blotto at parties and ruined it for everyone.

The point is, you're right!
Hey, I can pour 105 octane AV-gas and sixteen parts per thousand of nitromethane into the gas tank of my wife's 2017 Chrysler Pacifica minivan, twiddle a little bit with a laptop, and instead of 300 horsepower I will probably get 400.

And in about ten thousand miles my engine will "GRENADE"...as in: "Uncle Rodney" will be knocking at my door.
The engine is actually built to put out as much as 500 horsepower, but on pump gas....i.e, "THE NORMAL WAY".

I liken this bizarre mixture to be similar to the 105 AV-Gas nitro cocktail I described.
