I've been smoking weed for going on four decades and the first time I smoked "dabs" (a.k.a BHO or butane hash oil [butane is used as a solvent to extract the THC]), two big hits and I was way more stoned that had ever been in my life, and that's saying something. Bedtime for me. By way of comparison, the strongest weed I've ever smoked was 33% THC (strongest that was tested for potency, that is - but subjective experience says that it was indeed the strongest).
There's a handful of weed stores around my home (recreational weed is legal and regulated here), and for the most part, most of the sellers don't mess with much sub-20% - and 20% THC is very good. There's one seller downtown who seems to be targeting the lower end market and that store stocks stuff as low as 10% THC. It's cheap, but I don't see any reason to buy it unless I was pretty broke. I don't like to cough, and the cheap shit has to be inhaled so deeply and held so long to get high it's just not worth it to me.
I'm, unfortunately, old school. The best pot we got your hands on was maybe 7% tops. That's why we liked hash better, less tokes to the high. Never had any oil, only blocks/chunks. Devised some interesting smokers for it. Cheapest one was a Pringles can. Best was a separation flask/condenser tube from the chem lab. Smooooooth!
Got some new pot last summer. Two hits and I could do nothing but sit on the couch and drool. Was told it was 23%. Afraid those days have passed me by.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
