This tends to be one of the most popular (not to mention annoying) arguments fired out by anti-cannabis campaigners on a global basis. They talk of weed today being so much stronger than it ever was in the past, hence constituting a bigger ‘danger’ than it may previously have been. Of course we all know the danger element of this is pure BS, but what about potency? Well, the truth is that while there are more strains being engineered today specifically for strength, not all weed doing the rounds today is stronger than it used to be. Today, you can pick up weed with THC concentrations of 25%, 20%, 10% and even below 5% – exactly as it was back in the day.
