Overview

Cannabis and Marijuana today are unlike cannabis and marijuana from 20 years. The average THC content was a lot less (usually between 3-6%). Today’s THC content has been recorded as high as 85% in the plant form. If a cannabis plant is altered (i.e., Butane Hash Oil), the THC content is extremely high, and can have a different type of effect on an individual. Higher THC contents have been shown to induce seizures, and cause extreme paranoia and hallucinations. There are also different types of Cannabis: Indica, Sativa and Hybrid types (depending on how you want to feel).
