Medicinal Herb is Highly potent, usually presenting a "KNOCK OUT" High that alleviates pain and suffering. I noticed something recently and want peoples opinion on this.....
Basically I noticed that "ALL" the Herb sold in Dispenseries are merely known for thier "Medicinal qualities"......I have seen many strains offered and sure enough all of them fall into the seed banks section of "MEDICINAL".......

"NOW PLEASE DO NOT MIS-UNDERSTAND ME....I AM IN NO WAY SUGGESTING THE HERB SOLD AT MEDICAL DISPENSERIES IS NOT SOME OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY AVAILABLE".........

I Do know that MEdical Dispenseries often purchase Herb from suppliers who have "MEDICINAL STRAINS"..........ONLY!!!!!

MY Point is...and I think I do have some Leverage on this point.....Those who are getting herb from medicinal Dispensaries are far removed from numerous other strains that contain a Far greater level of "Creativity, Energy,Flavor,Mental clarity..etc.etc...........

So my question is this...........

Is Medical Marijuana with all of it's sedating and powerfull effects....distracting some smokers from the strains that are not known as medicinal...Rather "Creative"..."Energy producing"....Like Thai Sticks for example.....and other strains that are for the "PURE" recreational smoker now saturated in "Body High" Medical Marijuana......essentially are these smokers who are not "TRULY" in need of medical assistance yet think they are getting the "BEST of THE BEST"....Or are they just getting the "BEST MEDICINAL".....Not necessarily the "BEST" when non-medical factors are taken into consideration????

Personally....I think "YES"...Although Medical MArijuana is Great and I get all comfy and my pain alleviated.....I miss the weed that gets me to write poems, Laugh harder at movies and wanna go to the beach....

What do you guys think of this Theory????......??????

Although a radical analogy.....
In the near future Will offering someone Medicinal weed vs. Power weed be like asking someone if they would rather have some sleeping pills or a bump of Cocaine ? LOL ?
There is no such thing as a strictly medicinal strain, all marijuana is medicinal. Dispensaries sell everything from Indicas to Sativas and each has a different high and different medical uses. For example I use sativas in the morning to give me that energized high so that throughout the day I can still function while I'm working but not be in pain. Then at night when I'm just relaxing and watching TV I smoke an indica to help me unwind and help me sleep. It's not like the breeder says OK I'm making this particular strain but it's only for medicinal use. I don't understand why you are making an assumption the dispensaries only sell one type of marijuana. As far as thai stick is concerned all it was is a strain of sensi back in the 60's that came from Thailand and was skewered with piece of stem and tied in place with some fibers from the stem. It's not really around any more because it isn't as good as modern strains. I don't want to be a dick but you're post is riddled with some strange logic, assumptions, and doesn't make much sense to be honest. I'm not sure where you are getting your info from but I would do some more research because you really don't seem to know much about the subject you are trying to comment on. As far as your assumption that people are getting medical marijuana under false pretenses; I have to respectfully disagree. I'm not naive and I realize that there is bound to be abuse in the medical marijuana system but I would bet that 90% of medical marijuana users are truly in need. Even if they are only using it for something as simple as insomnia.

Edit: As far as the varieties that dispensaries choose to sell; it has less to do with the medicinal qualities of the strain and more to do with what the customers want.
