Hi SR a genuine query for you as you know more about cannabis than me, Fact.
Does perception alter the "quality" of a smoke?
e.g. if you bought 2 x 1g of cheese from Homegrown Fantasy and called them sample A and sample B and rolled 2 joints. You then told 5 friends sample A was from Homegrown Fantasy and sample B was from say Paradise, then asked them which was best. Yes the product is the same but i would put money on more people saying that sample A was better. Of course only one example of perception and alot of people would argue that they know exactly what they are smoking.
Of course perception covers alot of grounds but do you agree or disagree with this theory?

I would think that if the joints were smoked one per hour over a two hour test period, the results for the majority would be A and/or 'they are the same'.stew1974 wrote:f you bought 2 x 1g of cheese from Homegrown Fantasy and called them sample A and sample B and rolled 2 joints.

At the very least I think even a novice smoker would be able to detect taste which would affect their perception of the smoke.
EDIT: of course I am speaking in theory without having sampled the actual weed in question; I was applying the same basic premise to weeds available in any given environment.
Cheers

Monday morning? Is that the 22nd? If thats the case then that's travel to Dusseldorf day, so I can set off a bit later as I head off to Dusseldorf for the week for work.chilly1952 wrote:It was nice seeing you again last night. Wish we had more time to talk. I'll be back at the 420 Cafe' Monday morning for a few hours between flights, from around 10:30 AM to 1:30 PM. I suppose you will be working then, but if not stop in and help me ware down their vaporizer.
@Stew1974 - You would get more A if the people were like me, and believed that to be the best. As soon as you say HGF cheese, I like it more than the others
