Plant matter exposed to a higher degree of sunlight will be slightly different than plant matter exposed to less even within a single plant.

A sun burn: allergy to the sun
Drowning: allergy to water
Drowning: allergy to water
My wife actually does have a sun allergy. Every summer she has to rebuild her tolerance slowly, just a little to much sun and she gets hives and/or a rash, long before she gets burned.
LOL
We all know what it's called. We're just unsure of the exact cause.
In my case I suspect it's a chemical irritation, perhaps an acid of some sort. I'm aging some straight reds since I also suspect fresh reds are worse so aging might allow for enough chemical change to make a difference.
I only ever seem to have an issue with fresh, straight reds. For everything else, it might feel like tongue bite while smoking but it quickly subsides and changes to my tongue feeling like it's wearing a fur coat (I picture a bug's bunny cartoon when I say that).
Careful @BROBS...”I’m not a smart man, but I do know what an allergy is.” Yes it is stipulated that an over abundance at anything could cause an “allergy”. I suppose I could technically be allergic to ice cream if I sit in the couch all day and consume massive amounts to the point where I’m Gluttony presented in the ? Se7en. ?

I have nothing more than anecdotal tidbits ...I love Red Va's, loooove em. I do notice that if I smoke them frequently for a couple weeks I will become sensitive in the nose/get a burning feeling, and have to give em a couple days. I have no idea why, I just notice this seems to happen with reds.
Orlik golden sliced is a lot of red VA. What other blends you smoke? Probably mostly red VA
Your aunt Sally. We used to play shuffleboard together.
This. And different enzymes may or may not be present in the organism based on several variables. Different environmental conditions can trigger various microbiological responses in plant species. Resulting chemicals may or may not remain in the organism throughout the processing and smoking process.
Same species grown in different locations may have drastically different concentrations of various chemicals. A true allergy to any of those would subsequently be worsened/lessened in accordance with that concentration based on exposure.
Jokes on you, you were adopted. They never told you?
This is why old Italian men beat their young broccolini plants with a stick.
Can we please keep this discussion PG-13?
Glad I do not have this horrible sounding problem because red VAs are the shit! I have started getting seasonal allergies, though, and they are decidedly not the shit.
Not true. Harris smokes everything Virginia but Red without problem.
