Why does smoking marijuana seeds give you a headache?
I'm doing a project and I'm just wondering what exactly it is about smoking the seeds that gives most anyone a headache? All I've heard from collective smokers is that it gives them a big, bad monster migraine and makes them feel sick. I've Googled around looking for a chemical explanation or a legitimate reason, but no dice.

1. right..."project"2. You are supposed to get high off of the marijuana I thought, and they may be eating massive amounts of brain cells causing cell decomposition. Stop smoking weed....
3. Smoking seeds doesn't give you a headache, it just tastes like crap.
4. I haven't been able to find an explaination either. But I can tell you, they sure do give me a migraine!
5. i don't know the chemical combounds or anything, but um.. if you want to get high smoke a bowl. and find out for yourself the difference between buds and seeds. there's nothing like first hand experience to prove your scientific theory.
6. Your brain is screaming in pain because you are destroying brain cells....
Simple solution, don't do drugs.
7. Mz. T.... please find me documented and proven research and studies showing that smoking weed eats and decomposes brain cells. You will find that this information does not exist because you are providing false information. So please stop being ignorant and learn your facts before you say something.
As for the question, stems and seeds do not have any THC in them, or at least very very little. So it won't get you high.I believe, if my memory servers me right, that stems contain a carcinogen called acrolein, which is extremely irritating to nerve cells; hence the headache.
And for the record: smoking weed does not make you dumb. im sick of hearing that. it does as you are high, but that's because it tends to make your brain lazy for the time being. anyone can smoke weed and recover 100 percent no matter how much they smoked. Hell, you could smoke for 10 years straight, stop, and still be just as intelligent. You will suffer some memory loss, and probably be a different person, but I assure you... it is not that bad for you. Especially in comparison to cigarettes and alcohol... which ironically are legal. And if you smoked cigarettes or drank beer everyday for 10 years straight... you will have MUCH worse longterm effects than you would from the weed. Isn't it a strange world we live in?
