> People have been making various grades of hashish for millennia

Hashish is generally made with high-CBD strains (which is partly why hash tends to mong you out more than weed).

It seems there is evidence that CBD moderates the trippy effects of THC, and reduces the propensity of the product to trigger psychotic states in suceptible individuals.

BTW: in my experience, modern weed strains are beaten in terms of hit-per-gram only by the rarest, highest-grade black hash.

It’s not true that hashish is made from high-CBD strains. That idea seems to be based on the common misunderstanding that indica strains have more CBD in them.

There are various types of hashish; the traditional Moroccan screened variety is almost certainly all cultivated indica, but Himalayan charas is almost certainly all landrace sativa.
