Weed connoisseurs: can you tell the difference between strains?

[Music Fiend]

Curious brehs,

I used to be a big smoker. But I stopped after being on probation for a long time. When I tried to smoke again and everytime after that break, I'd get crazy high from a small amount, get panic attacks, very bad paranoia, it just made me freak out everytime. Turned me into a scary ass, socially anxious mess... Even when alone I. My own apt. Seems like the only cure is pushing through and smoking a lot for at least a couple months, then the bad feelings go away.

So my question: Can you tell the difference between the highs or different strains of weed ( not just limited to sayi a vs indica)? My second question, if so, will a newbie smoker be able to tell a difference or will high just be high to them.

Yes I can tell the difference...a newbie will not know....but if you smoke and get couch lock...more than likely it's a indica or indica hybrid...Sativa's usually give you a more energetic high but it differs with some....

Yeah I feel you. Even when I was deep into smoking tho, I could never tell.

My Bros act like the difference is night and day. I certainly can't tell a difference nowadays. And couldn't then either.

If u been smoking for awhile you'll be able to tell the difference. Its subtle but its cool to be informed on what you smoking

 

[kj614]

by no means am I a connoisseur but I can tell indica from sativa

 

[BaldingSoHard]

I mean I couldn't name a strain off the strength of smoking it but I could definitely tell a difference in feeling between strains.

 

[CouldntBeMeTho]

Absolutely.. Strains like sour diesel have such a distinct taste.

Im not advanced enough to tell every strain by taste

But certain ones have very distinct essences

You can tell the difference if you smoke a lot.
Smoke a sativa to feel alert.
Smoke a indica if you want to relax.
A hybrid will give you a combination of the two depending on what strain you got.
That paranoia feeling could be because you simply aren't used to smoking again yet. Over time, you start feeling less noid because you more comfortable in your element.

Im in the same boat as you fam, but the funny thing is i was still blazing heavy as my boys was at the time and to me, I could only tell as far as Sativa and Indica because one would get you brain dead and the other would make me energetic but still high.

My guys will be mentioning the strain just based off the flavour and to me .... it all tastes the same shyt, same with the smell. I could used to tell the difference more when I was early in the smoking game, but after a few years it all blended into one for me, I couldnt give a fukk what it is as long as it was sativa which i could tell if it was from the high or not

These days I dont even really blaze, unless its a situation that undoubtedly calls for a joint

I used to smoke heavy and stopped for a few months, now I have the same condition as the OP.

 

[Collateral]

I been burning for 7 years now and I still can't tell the difference I know when i'm smoking reggie though that's easy.

This and this is all I care to know honestly. People be making up names for the fukk of it and stop trying to keep up with all that mess.

Ive seen dudes get stressed over debating what type of strain it is and getting upset that its loud but just not the strain they want

man fukk all of that shyt, if it gets you nicely buzzed then who gives a fukk about the rest of details

 

[Freedman]

nikkas still smoke Reggie out here. They don't know anything about strains, sativa, indica, none of that shyt

 

[Mowgli]

It's either got seeds or it don't.

Once you know Brazillian jiujitsu no weed has the power to get you high like that.

All weed becomes reggie. Only thing you notice about weed is the come down. Don't see the thrill
