The Best Heat-Resistant Weed Strains

One thing that can ruin some cannabis strains is well, heat.  This plant, although adaptive, is something that can sometimes struggle in super warm climates. That’s why many growers want to choose one that fits this area. Luckily, we’ve got it covered, with the top strains to grow in warm climates, why that is, and what they are. 

What needs to be in a Heat-Resistant strain 

Not every single strain has the ability to survive in super warm climates.  The heatwaves, UV light, and droughts do make this a challenge, which is why, if you want to grow something that’s made or this climate you need something with long flowering times. You also will notice tat with most of these they’re haze variants. That’s because the Haze variant was actually bred to be made in these climates, and you can, through all of this as well get the full benefits of this regardless of the type. 

Shining Silver Haze 

First one is shining silver haze, which is a hybrid that’s sativa dominant, and it’s one that’s made through northern lights and skunk, which are two very popular strains for users. This is one that offers thick and very big colas to show off beautiful shades of green, orange and purple. It’s basically thriving off of the UV exposure to make the metabolite chemicals to create worthwhile wee. 

With over 21% THC, and a lot of CBD in it, it offers a clear head that helps elevate your mind while also not being super heavy on the body. due to the citrusy flavors, this offers effects which are pleasant as well. 

Chocolate Haze 

A unique sort of strain, this is one that’s good for those in warmer regions, since it’s one that’s pretty, has a lot of terpenes to offer deep, lush scents, and it also has a lot of artisan features. With 20% THC in it, and also sme great fruity and even chocolatey terpenes within it, it feels like you’re drinking a cup every single morning in this. It does handle sunlight that’s intense quite well, but you should go for drip irrigation to keep everything moist, and you should also consider using a cover crop to get a bit of shaved on this one. 

Haze Berry 

This is yet another popular haze one, and it’s one that helps create a potent, fruity flavor, combining shining silver haze and blueberry. It’s sativa-dominant, and it’s got a very relaxing, nice and long high to it too. It’s one that also has stronger terpenes as the sun starts to shine on it, so you will definitely get a ton of this from the sunlight. Be forewarned though, that just because it can thrive with lots of sun, doesn’t mean it can stand super heatwaves, so bear that in mind. 

Amnesia Haze 

This is one that’s great for those who want something with lots of trichomes, 22% THC, and it also offers a melting high that elevates your mind, and it lets you really have the potential to get the best results possible with this. If you are going to grow this, try to add some mycorrhizal fungi or rhizobacteria to this, as it can help prevent pathogens in the roots, improve the structure of the soil, and also offer layers to provide the ideal way to break down everything. 

These are some of the best strains to have out in the sunlight, and while it may require a few things on your end, you’ll definitely start to see the benefits from this as well when you grow these.

What is HHC?

With marijuana legalization still going on, there are some parts of the plant that aren’t’ addictive and can be helpful. With a lot of studies alluding to the benefits of marijuana, some discussions revolving around THC along with CBD is quite common. Each version and variant of the cannabis sativa plant has over 100 different cannabinoids, with further investigation revealing not just cool effects, but other benefits that come with this too, including delta-8, and delta-10 THC, which have been utilized as the alternative to delta -9 cannabis, which is basically marijuana. One part of course that is still in the legal gray area is HHC, or hexahydrocannabinol, which is basically hemp-derived, so it’s not THC, but it does have some intoxicating results as well. 

The History 

HHC is basically hydrogenated derivatives from HTC, where you have hydrogen added to delta-9 through a process that’s called hydrogenation, which creates this. This is similar to how vegetable oil becomes margarine. While it was over 70 years since he did this, there’s practically no research for this, but the hydrogen atoms do oversaturate the molecule, increasing its shelf life, and with over 10 different versions of this, there is a lot that this has to offer. 

This is basically a double bonded sort of chemical, and it’s basically the opposite of what CBN has, since this one is basically a double bond that doesn’t break down. This one has binding affinity to both the CB1 and CB2 receptors in the body. This also is a type of chemical that has a lot longer potency, and a higher percentage, much more than what delta-9 may have, and it’s more resistant to breaking down over time. 

How it’s Made 

This is basically made from the THC that’s there, and a lot of them make it from hemp, which is something that also cause sit to sit in that weird legal gray area. The process of creating this begins with cannabidiol extraction methods directly from the hemp itself. With the CBD being isolated and distilled, this looks powdery in texture, and usually is separate from the CBD isolate that’s there and it depends on the manufacture that there. This is something is pretty proprietary in process, without focusing on the legal aspects of such. 

This also is made through lab methods, and it pretty much exposes THC in a concentrated form to hydrogen, and this is something that also has high pressure and metal acting as a catalyst, similar to nickel and palladium, and this is then removed as a catalyst, and it’s completed part of the task that’s there too. 

According to a study from 2007, this was found that you can convert CBD directly to HHC through the use of gastric juices. However, there is almost no other information on the method outlined to make this. It’s also possible to make HHC directly from citronellol as well, which is a terpene. How companies make this also does touch upon the legality that’s needed for this. 

So is it Legal? 

This is federally legal since it’s found in the hemp plant. You can make this pretty much on purpose, and you just need CBD or hemp. However, it does have some potency, even though it does have less than .3% THC, and it also contains a lot of other cannabinoids too. 

It is difficult to really figure out though if it’s the same potency as THC, since the ratios between active and inactive molecules do vary. While companies do try their best to increase the active compounds, they don’t have total control on potency.
