Ya Dj Short is something like a pioneer. I don't know if many debate this but he made blueberry, and does a lot with old landrace strains. His son breeds now also, next generation genetics. He has some crazy good crosses with most if not all blueberry.Roger that john, I know where you're coming from! And DJ Short is a true Master, dating back to the '70's, right? His body of work and experience speak for themselves, ....... CBN is part of it, but only if it's present, right? Simple fact is, most of the differentiating effects, the "nature" of different strains' buzzes is largely due to the terpene profile; other cannabinoids play their role, yes, many of which are poorly qualified, much less quantified! ...THCV, CBDV, in African and Asian landrace strains are of interest to both rec' smokers and pharma' researchers! But terp's like myrcene, and linalool are often found in higher % in "Indica" strains, vs. "Sativa", and these terp's play a big role in the narco-sleepy effects along with CBN if present.. we've all seen lab reports, and frankly, it's damn rare in significant quantities of the tested buds I see (Santa Cruz Labs is a leader in this industry).... I use quotes because botanically speaking, these are not valid descriptive terms in the current classification scheme of cannabis,.. more conventional terms used for describing the buds and buzz associated with them,...
The science behind it all is astounding to say the least. Cannabis has come a long way. I heard a guy talking about terpenes one day, and saying that just extracting terpenes and having them in a vial would be the next big thing, like aromatherapy. Lol I read a lot, but you sound better educated on the subject of cannabinoids and terpenes. I appreciate and value your input.
