According to WEED MAPS, Much of your reaction to cannabis will depend on your biological makeup. Different types, or strains, of cannabis, can also produce other effects. One cultivar may lead to a sleepy high, while another one leaves you feeling more alert. But don't expect the cannabis plant you smoked to have the same effect on your friend. Just like your buds, every bud is different.


Why are there so many variables? 


Why is there so much variability in how we experience cannabis? Thank the human endocannabinoid system (ECS) for allowing weed to affect us and affect us all differently. The endocannabinoid system is the network of receptors, lipids, and enzymes that help the body maintain internal balance and regulate several bodily functions. Cannabis users feel high when the cannabinoids in the plant they consume (aka intoxicating THC and soothing CBD) interact with their bodies. Cannabinoids produce an effect by binding to the body's cannabinoid receptors, where enzymes then break them down. Our cannabinoid receptors have genetic variations from person to person, which can alter the effects of cannabis, including the duration of intoxication.
