CBD offset THC "buzz" ratio

Is there a ratio between THC amounts and CBD amounts that offset eachother. What I mean is:
If we have a 5% THC strain what amount of CBD would it take to nullify the THC high?

Is there such ratios?

In my experience, there is no offsetting. If you don't want the psychoactive "high" of pot, take high CBD strains and nothing else.

One thing to keep in mind too is that the term "high" can also mean several things depending on who you're talking to. A sativa high for me is when i feel restless and my mind won't stop working. An Indica high is the couchlock/out of it/tripping feeling.

High CBD strains that are more Indica doesn't get me the same high, but it makes me super sleepy. Like out on my feet sleepy.

High CBD strains that are more sativa gets me the same as regular sativa strains, so I really couldn't tell the difference.

I know it's vague, but it's also going to be different from person to person, which makes it even less clear cut.

Thanks for that mcgrh the reason I'm asking is for my dad's sake...he's been taking oil for cancer for a few weeks now and he doesn't mind the high but he says he could do without it. Now going mostly CBD may not have the same cancer fighting effects as a high THC strain so we figured that maybe a bit of this and a bit of that may equal out while having the same effect.

I just wish there was more scientific research being done on this, I know a lot has been done and a lot is in the pipe line but imagine if we didn't have this f*## up prohibition for all this time...we would be light years ahead in understanding the medical properties and could custom tailor them to each individuals needs.

I have a patient who does not like the high from THC, but likes the effect of equal amounts of Qwiso from 18% CBD, R4 strain, and 20ish% THC strains. I know we're shooting in the dark here, and I am so used to THC, I am a poor subject as far as high discernment, but I can tell when the CBDs take away pain. We do know here are two receptors in the endocannabinol system, and why not attempt to fill both? I have a friend with a daughter at Trinity in Ireland, getting her medical degree. They will not teach about the endocannabinol system since marijuana is illegal. This makes me nuts, it is our own body for crying out load.

Cbd still gets you high btw
It won't null

What is it about the stuff they give to kids that doesn't get them high?

Only way to avoid the high is to not decarboxylate the bud. In the absence of heat, THC, CBD, etc will not get you high.

You could make an oil for your dad without heating it, and he would not get high. I'm making no warranty that this will be as effective for him regarding his cancer treatment though.

Try taking a bud and eating it. it won't get you high. Then take a bud from the same plant and loosely wrap it in tinfoil and put it in the oven at 250 degrees for 20 minutes..... then eat it. You'll be baked.

Based on all the research I've done, I agree, there is no "offset" with the THC/CBD ratio though the THC is more responsible for the cerebral, psychoactive-type high. So choose a more CBD-heavy strain and go with an edible version to maximize pain relief and minimize headtrip. (Pain relief and anti-inflammation are the primary reasons I am getting into cannabis use.)
@Agracan -- Good luck with your papa. Mine had cancer too and if we'd had access to medical marijuana, he might still be here. Blessings to you both

I have been experimenting quite a bit with CBDs as of late, specifically in relation to pain caused by arthritis. I normally smoke/vape high THC bud in the evening (I prefer Indicas which generally have higher CBDs to begin with, and also make me tired which is a huge bonus at night); however, I can not afford to do that during the day as I have work and a family to contend with and being extremely high is not an option.

I have been vaping quite a bit of Canntonic #4, which is reportedly a 14:1 ration of CBDs to THC. I do not get "high" when vaping this bud. The best way I can describe the feeling is that I have a general sense of well being after I vape it. I feel good, but in a "I'm in a good mood" kind of way, not a "wow, am I high" kind of way. There is no "buzz", but there is a noticeable feeling of some sort. That's the best way i can describe it.

I also have been taking 15mg CBD capsules during the day, which have a similar effect, but last longer. It definitely helps with my pain, specifically pain due to inflammation, which is what I struggle with in the case of my arthritis.

I also concur that while I often read about CBD "offsetting" the effect of THC, that's not how I would describe it. To me, it has more of the effect of "taking the edge" off the THC in the sense that it's very mellow, no anxiety, no racing heat, etc. I also have 2:1 THC:CBD capsules (10mg THC : 5 mg CBD) and these do produce a "high".

Hopefully there is some info in there that helps.

Their are alot of assumptions about what strain/batch is what percentage of what

Untill we can be relatively sure whats being used , all we are doing is quessing
