What is Cannabis Potency?
Cannabis potency refers to the concentration of psychoactive compounds, primarily THC and CBD, in cannabis. It determines the intensity of the effects on the user.
Measuring Potency
Potency is typically measured in percentages, indicating the amount of THC and CBD in a cannabis product. Higher percentages often mean stronger effects.
Understanding Effects
THC is the primary psychoactive compound, responsible for the 'high' sensation. CBD, on the other hand, is non-psychoactive and can have therapeutic benefits.

Choosing the Right Potency
The right potency depends on individual tolerance and desired effects. Novices may prefer lower-potency strains, while experienced users might opt for higher-potency options.
