Re: Marinol vs. Natural Cannabis

This was an old post of mine from another site.

As you can see, many phytocannabinoids other than THC, as well as terpenoids, have boiling points at much higher than THC, and play an active part in the "high". Depending on what temperature the vaporizer is set at it's possible that all of the phytocannabinoids in a smoke stream aren't all present in vapor......
of course, that's just an idea - there hasn't been any conclusive study yet. But it's interesting to toss these ideas around

Read and enjoy while vaping,
