Couchlock from Mexican Sativa at week 6

So I picked a bud off my Sativa this morning and quick dried it in the microwave. I know this is early as hell but I wanted to taste it. I got an okay high but was disappointing by a HEAVY couchlock. I don't like Indica or wanting to sleep all day. Will the couchlock go away or worsen after the plant matures?

Umm. The couchlock feeling comes from letting your plants get overly amber/mature. Amber trichomes contain degraded THC --> CBN. CBN represents a loss of 90% potency (from THC).CBN is not desirable in any harvest, since it not only represents a huge loss of potency but research into the substance has also shown that CBN does not produce a high like THC does, CBN produces a more sickly feeling not a true high. Your plants are only 6 weeks old, give them some more time, they are only going to get more potent.
