Scientists have uncovered a surprising new layer of complexity in Cannabis, identifying dozens of previously unknown compounds—including the first-ever evidence of rare molecules called flavoalkaloids in its leaves. These compounds, prized for their potential health benefits, were hidden among a rich mix of plant chemicals that vary dramatically even between just a few strains.

    Who tosses cannabis leaves? Here in California everything is used to make product that can be sold.

      Yeahhh and a couple of these posts are within seconds of each other according to the time stamps. I’m leaning towards bot, or perhaps someone who needs a better hobby.

      Edit: it’s apparently someone using a “mass reposting tool” and copying shit from reddit.

    There’s at least part of the motive for US Congress to have outlawed cannabis seeds. It seems they want certain strains for Big Pharma drugs.

    Don’t toss cannabis leaves. I also won’t wipe my ass with thousand dollar bills.
