Hey man, tasty-lookin' post you got here! All those are grown without PGH (plant growth hormone), which is a great start. So many growers add it now, to make their nugs artificially dense. It has several drawbacks, but a lot of amateur smokers/buyers will go for it, thinking it's better because it's firm and crusty. I'm glad you have a good source. Fluffy buds are better buds! Sometimes you'll pay a higher price per gram/ounce because it's harder to grow properly, but it's worth it. Like buying GMO tomatoes sprayed with Monsanto RoundUp, or organic (real/natural) tomatoes for a slightly higher price. Don't save a few dimes putting crap into your body! Besides, fluffy buds smoke better.
As for how much THC is in each, all depends who measured/estimated! Over the past couple decades, THC content has become the only thing buyers (and in turn, sellers) care about. Genetics have been adjusted through unnatural selection (selective breeding programs) to produce the most THC. And since it's hard for the consumer to test weed (most don't have access to the equipment and knowledge), sellers usually lie. A strong weed in the 80s was 7%-10% THC. Nowadays, 25% (a quarter of the weight) is THC. I've seen some labels claim 30% and higher in recent years. Sometimes this is a lie, and sometimes it's true because the cannabis has been altered genetically and then grown with massive amounts of chemical fertilizer to skew THC content upward. The obsession with maximizing THC at the expense of the other more healthy cannabinoids, and at the expense of quality, has really ruined it for many people.
Without knowing who estimated/measured the THC content of those buds, I would have to say #3, since it is the most frosty looking of the bunch.
#2 is looking a bit green, perhaps it was not cured as long as the others. That doesn't necessarily impact cannabinoid profile, but it will make the weed a little harsher to smoke on.
Happy toking :D

Thanks for the the info. You know your stuff. Yes, my grower is top notch and doesn't use any of that hormone garbage. Yes, here in Thailand how much THC your herb has is something people are very much into. These plants were not tested, but I do know the name and seed exactly, and left that out. So according to how much TCH the species produces it's actually....
#1 "Gorilla Bomb" which has been known to produce weed with over 27-32% THC is the winner here. So again it's based off the seed and what the plat is expected to produce, but yeah after smoking it, all this weed is well into the 20+% range. I'm the test! hahahah
Thanks again for taking the time and playing my weeeeeed games!
Looks... bomb! (The other half of the genetics must be something like Gorilla Glue, a very high-THC strain popularized a few years ago around the world.)
Your grower definitely is top notch, especially if you mentioned it's done without pesticides? I myself advocate "200% organic" (hence my signature banner on every post), which basically means even more organic than organic. I grow from seed, with nothing but 4 ingredients: plain water, air, light, and organic dirt. I make the dirt myself, using nothing but worm castings (worm poop) and peat moss. The dirt is the nutrients and the moss adds fluff so it's not too dense for the roots. I've shown 8 times now, from seed to cured flowers, that this is not only possible. but the BEST way to produce cannabis. Yield is very small, but quality is miles above anything else anyone can come up with. I'm amazed that in all my years doing it, and talking about it online, I've never found another grower who is 200% organic. In fact, I believe in it so much, I offered to PAY other growers to try it, just once, but I had no takers.
If I had enough room, and enough freedom, I could grow garbagebags full every few months. But we're limited to 4 plants here under Canada's "legalization" (corporate monopoly).
Happy toking my friend! Thanks for the cool post :D
That's pretty incredible. My grower, he certainly is doing something similar to what you describe, as he's getting similar results. Smaller yields, but the best stuff anyone can find. About Canada legalization BS, it's just amazing how everything is fake...even "legalization".
Words have no meaning anymore and that is basically how they want it.
"Words have no meaning anymore and that is basically how they want it."
You nailed it!
Your grower sounds amazing, I'm glad you connected with him. IMO it's well worth the extra cost, simply for what is NOT in your medicine!
