Jesus, so that's why we still call it weed today

Was catchier than Dried Pubes

I started smoking weed in '70, and the main difference I can tell between late 70s and now is that back then sinsemilla was just a part of the market, with a lot of packages containing seeds and more leaf and stem (amount varied with price). Today it's all sinsemilla (so much so that the term isn't even used anymore). The quality is pretty much the same. We had thai sticks and Hawaiian that certainly equaled top shelf strains of today (as far as anyone could tell - there wasn't much precision on reporting THC levels). I'm happy with the situation, but I stopped smoking between about '83 and 2009 (job), and wasn't amazed by any changes in potency; just the fact that it's all sinsemilla. I did feel silly when I first got back in the market and asked a seller whether or not his product was sinsemilla and he didn't know wtf I was talking about. I quickly found out that was a stupid question... :>)

I remember references to what I thought was the "sense" now I get that was sinsimilla :) Thanks

Yep, that's what it was called. Just Spanish for "without seed". Speaking of Spanish, if we could find Oaxacan sinse we considered ourselves lucky, because it was just about as good as Thai but cheaper. Availability (in my part of Texas) wasn't reliable at all though. Now, it's like going to the weed supermarket. We're living in the future in that sense. Life is good and getting better...

LMAO

Started smoking back in the 80s red leb ,black.good shit joints or hot knives they rocked.

Yeah bro the stuff with the cloth attached to it, red leb think there was gold leb too it was lovenly stuff. Early 90s.

How did people live with that? With the way weed has gone it's a different world and are kids will think the same as are weed lol

Let's hope there's a little weed in their shunt/ brain interface

I was there from 1972-ish, it was mostly pretty good in the Uk depending who you knew, or what grew ;) Avoiding the street ofc.

Most of the pictured weed was grown outdoors on a hillside without fertilisers, boosters and the other shit habitually used today.

I partook in the some of the countries of origin at the time too, thank you Magic Bus. I preferred hash at the time and still do, real Temple Balls were trippy, Leb was a knockout and the black in the Dam was unbelievable and so on. Impossible to get around here, so pleased to have found LB at last!

If i got any of that in the post I'd probably raise a dispute. Though I did buy thai stick and brick pack in the 90's. Wouldn't mind seeing a picture of the hash scene back then. All the hash bars look the same now. Just with a different picture under the cellophane. Picture looks like it came off someone's home printer. No finesse to hash bars these days.

1970s cannabis dispute settlement, there's a prompt

Cannabis has came a long way

Vaguely remember smoking some stuff looking similar to that here in the UK circa late 90s.

first 'grass' I ever smoked looked like Acapulco Gold number 5, first proper weed I got fucked from was like the Thai in number 10

Meh I’d still smoke it. I bet all of these would get you high as a motherfucker. Because you wouldn’t be used to them at all.

We would recommend making some cannabutter with it and bake a nice cake! (although you could use the butter in any recipe)

The butter shouldn’t taste ‘horrific’ just a light bud smell/taste usually.

Plus when you make a sweet treat usually that would mask any unwanted flavours too!

Let us know how you get on :)

Ooo this sounds lovely, will have to try my hand at baking now and see how I do. Since it's decarbed already should I skip that step and go straight into infusing?

Water cure it. Dump it into a french press if you have one and let it sit for a few hours then drain and repeat. Keep doing this, increasing the time it's in water for a day or so. Gets the taste out of it.

Dry it out. Dehumidifier is great or in an oven tray on top of a radiator stirring it every so often works too.

Then infused into coconut oil in a bain marie for a good few hours, just enough oil to cover the avb.

Strain through a muslin cloth then use the oil to make brownies, or a spoonful or two in hot chocolate or in anything really.

It can be strong as fuck. I lost half a weekend with my last batch😂

Yes we was always under the impression that you don’t need to decarb AVB, if its a dark green/brown you should be good to start infusing, if its more of a lighter colour maybe a small decarb wouldn’t hurt.

Interested to see the final product :)

Jesus. This has hit me really hard. I’ve been smoking weed for 30 years. 11 weeks ago I had a huge (tennis ball sized) lump pop out of my neck. Dr diagnosed me as having an infection of the parotid gland (saliva gland). Antibiotics for a week, lump hung around for a month.

Had an ultrasound scan 3 weeks ago, turns out it’s a tumour 😞 Stopped smoking that day. 30 years crashed down on me during that one 15 min appointment.

Was immediately put in the NHS suspect cancer 2 week pathway. Had an FNA (biopsy) and an MRI scan 2 weeks ago. Here I am, awaiting the news. Avoided googling the shit outta this, then stumble across this post. Blown me away a bit. I mean, we all know smoking isn’t big or clever, but this has been the biggest wake up call of my life, obviously.

I am part of a very reputable profession, married for 25 years, 4 kids. The works. Here I am, absolutely petrified waiting on a phone call.

Long story sorry. Thought I’d share tho.

I hope you get some positive news mate.

Sending you SO much love, best EVER wishes, and healing vibes 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍

Thoughts are with you mate, I know it's easier to say than do but stay positive, Its been beaten before and will be again💜💚

We believe it's the smoking that is the problem..you cannot get away from the dangers! But working with cannabis oil doesn't yield the unwanted effects and works as the plant intended. Can even yield the psychedelic effects and change things on a spiritual level way more than smoking! We believe in it as a psychedelic medicine just like our medicine! It has the power to change lives :-) Get well soon brother! You can change things around with changing your mind ;)

Bud, I can only imagine what you're going through. Stay strong and here's hoping for good news. Sending positive energy your way.

Is the tumour in your parotid gland?
I had one in 2006. Turned out to be a pleomorphic adenoma- the most common kind. Thankfully it is benign and was out and touch wood I’m all good except I have a scar that makes me look like I was a ruffian in my younger years

Wow. This is fascinating for me to read. Thanks for sharing Asaddd.

They mentioned the possibility of a common type, that would need removing even if benign. I didn’t take in the name tho. Like I touched on, I’m (usually!) a rational person, but I haven’t googled anything about this. My wife has tho, a lot, she works within the NHS and has spoken to people in this field. We have an unspoken understanding atm and not really discussing it at all. Her mum passed away very young with a cancer in her neck, I know she’s in bits about this. This is breaking me inside.

It’s a weird limbo we’re in, just waiting for the test results. Should be this week by the looks. My gp phoned me Thursday just gone and explained who is looking at it and where, and the process of diagnosis.

The thought of facial surgery scares the bejesus outta me, but the thought of it not being malignant makes it more bearable.

I pray to god/ the universe you do have the benign type.
You do sound rational I think it’s a good mindset- one step at a time.
Please can you post updates?
I’m sure myself and many others here care enough to want to know. Wishing you all the best wishes in the world my friend 👊🏽

Praying you get the good news, Stay strong brother no matter what the outcome keep your head high.

Wow, life can be so cruel.. wishing you the best mate, hopefully a positive call..stay strong

bigg bigg blessings to you!

Fingers crossed for good news.

Thank you for sharing your story. Try and keep your head up, just make sure you act on the doctor's advice and do so quickly. Please keep away from smoking anything at all now though mate, for you and yours.

Thanks FJ. I am doing exactly this. It’s not been any effort either tbh.

Much love to you catt and heartfelt thanks for sharing your story.

May I ask for the benefit of all of us - do you only smoke weed or baccy too?

Thank you Ike.

So I have smoked weed with tobacco for these 30 years. Smoked cigarettes in the 90s, early 00s, then rolling tobacco. Never a ‘heavy’ fag smoker really, but a heavy joint smoker through (weed and tobacco). Bought a mighty vape last year in an effort to kick my combustion habbit. Used it twice as I really didn’t get in with it. Not smoked anything since my scan that confirmed a tumour, 4 weeks ago. Never found quitting so easy. Currently enjoying the benefits of not having a dependency of any sorts for the first time in my adult life. Felling a better dad and husband for it tbh.

Used a lot of chemicals in those 90s/00s years and have had an ‘unhealthy’ relationship with alcohol since covid, which I have got on top of over the last 9 months.

I hope it all works out for you bro! I got a Mighty and tried quitting combustion, was underwhelmed for a long time. Eventually I got a bong adapter for the Mighty to help cool the vapour and it made it more enjoyable than smoking for me.

I mean, that makes sense.. I don't think anything is really *supposed* to be combusted and inhaled. I know so many people already preach and I don't just wanna be another one, but dry herb vapes truly are a great way to consume. Bud lasts longer, tastes better AND you get avb to use in edibles at the end! I'll still be bongin' and spliffin' it up but it's great to have so many options nowadays

No doubt dry herb vaping is almost certainly way better in terms of health risks than smoking (I also do it as well as edibles). On the other hand, the research on the health risks for dry herb vaping is still extremely limited. Inhaling hot particulates (which still happens with vaping) tends to be no bueno for health.

Very true. We're still kind of in the infancy of cannabis research. We know the long term effects of cigarettes and alcohol but, with the legality of weed over the years, we've still got so many unanswered questions about it. And dry herb vapes really haven't been around that long either. I just hope that we get some conclusive answers in our lifetimes...

I think carts are going to prove a massive roadblock for cannabis development and freedom because of growing health concerns. WithTHCA, D8 & D10 workarounds these are available all across N.America now and the demand is huge with consumers able to puff through 1ml carts or more every single day. Chemical contamination is rife. These things ARE addictive. California is reporting rapidly increasing needs for specialist pulmonary treatments amongst all ages and new clinics are opening rapidly.
Its just the tip of the iceberg...

As much as I want to believe that the convenience and discretion of carts is a positive thing, sadly you're 100% spot on. People doing blinkers and landing themselves in hospital isn't an uncommon occurrence in the US, I think seby G (weedtuber) had an incident like that. People going through a gram of 90%+ THC distillate in a day is just insane on so many levels. And as far as contaminants, I 100% believe there's more contaminated carts in the world than legit ones. By a big margin. From pesticides and vitamin E acetate all the way up to spice-laden disposables now prevalent across the UK. It's really a worrying trend and the demand for carts is going up by the day.....

No doubt.

I also wonder if a large part of the emergence of cannabis hyperemesis syndrome as a thing can be linked to heavy usage of carts and concentrates. I suspect it's usually It's hard to get sufficient THC to cause those symptoms from plain old bud.

I wouldn't be surprised at all tbh, 900mg of pure THC every single day cannot be a good thing. Plus there's no entourage effect with disty carts, which is good for some but I personally think the other terps and cannabinoids are what "makes" a high. Even so, rosin/live resin carts must still have 70%+ THC a lot of the time. Overconsumption is the worst thing anyone can do with weed imo, stay within your limits and enjoy it! Don't just get to an 11/10 high all day every day

For a real eye-opener, read this investigation by the LA Times 😳:
https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2024-06-14/the-dirty-secret-of-californias-legal-weed

I've had to work toward being less acidy lately and hoped it would help with my ridiculous tolerance to edibles, it didn't, I had a huge blob of RSO the other night and was nicely toasted yeah but really I should've been dribbling.

Like others have said already there's a few things to consider, some medical conditions, tolerance and even just the way you are wired can play a part, I read a good article the other day talking about a few of these things and about how it can even just be down to our metabolisms.

I'll link the article so you guys can have a read💜💚🏹

It could just be tolerance, I recently got some brownies and some gummies, in general my tolerance is a lot higher than average being a long time user, the last batch of gummies I got didn’t get me high and I gave out a few samples I got similar feedback, the new batch I tried the gummies and it took me 3 50mg to get high but it was a creeper, the brownie on the other hand was 300+mg, it didn’t work but 3 hours later I was insanely high to the point where I wasn’t even enjoying it anymore 😭 the brownies are on my menu for super cheap and to be honest I’ll be happy to send you a free sample to try? I like honest feedback since I’m a new vendor I really want to keep my score high 😂 if it’s not getting you high then maybe the tolerance isn’t the issue 😳

Thats incredibly interesting, similar situation here 110mg of shatter edibles did nothing even after having a short t break beforehand. Maybe its the suspension method or something during making? Idk.

Never good to end up taking too much though, hope you made it through alright 😅

I’m like this with vapes! Edibles fuck me up, dabs and joints get me nicely blazed. But I can sit with a liquid diamond pen all day and just not get stoned at all, just get heavy eyes it’s weird!! Always wondered what it was

I may be completely wrong here; and you may have already tried these things but try:
- Eating with something fatty, thc is fat soluble.
- Take an antacid before eating the edible, I read on one of the posts that some stomachs are more acidic and this can help.

You could try some of MJs pump jack oil, it’s sublingual absorption and may tell you whether your liver is to blame or not 🤣

Godspeed fellow traveller

Interesting, I used to have acid reflux, I don't anymore.

I will try with an antacid and see if that changes anything.

Then we can start talking about that liver transplant... 🤣

The tip about stomach acid there actually could be the cause of my problem, i might try sublingual absorbtion to see if thats where im having issues. Cheers for that one!

All good friend. I hope you find something that works for you.

I’ve personally also found better effects with RSO and full spectrum edibles - it’s a bit of a mellower, less racy high. Nice for socialising and vibing through your day.

Yeah that happens to me too for some reason, still dont know why though.

Have you tried different types of edibles? Shatter and distillate dont seem to work with me at all but decarbed weed turned into butter works well enough 🤷🏼‍♂️
Would be interesting to see if theres a change.

Hope you find something that works ✌ ive heard MJs concentrates shatter angel delight is a good one, havent tried so cant confirm tho!

Hi matey,

Yeah I tried the full spectrum edibles from Dr Distillate, had the same thing.

My liver just sucks I guess

You may have just saved me from another futile attempt there, id eyed those up wondering if id process it better but if were having similar experiences ill leave them for those who can enjoy them.

Might take Aa8rs suggestion to find out for sure though as its the only ingestion method i havent tried 🤔

D8 pens don't do much to me either, that's interesting

Same here again with the pens, tried both d9 and d8, nothing, friend takes a few hits and is halfway blazed.

Starting to think im defective 🤣

But I'm assuming you get baked from smoking/vaping flowers, hash and concentrates lol??

Cos I do, and I do have a tolerance sure but I'm still get blasted

Weirdly vaping flower or concentrates doesnt particularly work either, maybe a tiny high but nothing substantial.

Usually just reach for some flower and my bong as experimenting to see what works gets expensive 😂

Genetic lottery mate, and unfortunately it sounds like you haven't won when it comes to edibles.

Definitely try RSO, Shatter etc infused edibles if you haven't, as they may hit fuller with the other cannibinoids present.

If you want edibles that work, check the page. Happy hunting

Appreciate that but lets get one thing clear here, there is nothing wrong with gassed edibles, they were recommended me to a friend, and another friend tried them in person was was stoned from them.

I saw some people on here suggesting your tolerance to edibles is separate to your tolerance to vaping and smoking which I was skeptical about.

My experience either disproves that theory, or just suggests that my liver sucks at the process of coverting THC.

And yes you cannot compare smoking it or dabbing It compared to thc with flower or rosin the high is instant, with edibles it can take up to 3 hours for it to take full effect

Mate never mentioned anything about them, I just have an undying belief that I have the best edibles but anyone who makes them should think that, but if you’re one of them who’s liver doesn’t convert thc it doesn’t matter what you take you’ll never get high as your liver isn’t breaking down the cannabanoids, do you drink alcohol that’s a main problem for a few why edibles don’t work for people from experience anyway

Didn't meant to guess you was implying their edibles sucked mate, just from the first wording of your message.

Sorry for misunderstanding.

I don't drink alcohol, no.

I couldn’t comment on there edibles as I have never tried them, I’m sure they bang I’ve seen good reviews

Yeah again, sorry for misunderstanding pal

No worries buddy

We stock Edibles from 500mg all the way up to 2000mg, at very competitive prices. Please take a moment to see the menu, we're sure you will find Edibles for your tolerance level.

MM 💚

Not canna milk but lots of bhang lassi - definitely something about mixing it with dairy makes it less couch lock/stone more party/explore/do shit. Holi in Rajasthan is a blast cos of that government-approved elixir

Ohh so your from Nepal?

Great way to make use of smaller amounts of keif

We always make a bit when we finish a crop. its a different experience as milk fats change the release of the THC into the body, so its usually a longer, more slow release high.

Yes very true I've used different strains and they all hit different its like your own personal spider web

Quality ingredients make for quality product mate. There is a huge demand for low cost distillate which results in much of it being made with mixed low quality herb strains that were destined for destruction. Carts will usually (but by no means always) get the half decent stuff if you are lucky. It scares me to think what goes into into some bulk produced edibles😳

LB growers that make their own is the way👍

Thanks for the input mate. I mainly stick with the LB stalwarts like BEB and MJ, but I'll always have a soft spot for the Stony bars, not that I've bought any for a while. Not sure what was in them, but I could always taste the weed in them (not a complaint).

Agreed!- I've still got one in the fridge hehe...

I've been enjoying RocketDogRonnie's homemade FECO gummies for a big grin...

I got some of his nerd ropes and they were great.

Hi Blazin,

There are two main reasons why this will happen.

The first is you are essentially feeling two different highs. D9 is pure THC and it has none of the associated cannabinoids and terpenes. These are what give you the “full high”. RSO etc retains all these so you get the entourage effect with the edibles infused with these.

This falls in to the second reason. Some people get more affect from the other cannabinoids than others, just as people have lower tolerances for THC and vice versa. I can’t smoke bud because I always whitey, yet I can vape D9 until I’m locked to whatever furniture I happen to be lumbered on.

Fun part is trying everything until you find what works 😂

Thanks for that CK, you already know what I think of your baked cones 😵‍💫😂. Speaking of whiteys one of your cones was responsible for Mrs B’s first ever whitey last night. Sobered me up quicker than a knock on the door from the police 😂

If its compact dense buds with not many stems, smell and taste, its likely pgr

Thanks dude, unfortunately that sums up most of the weed I've had from one vender. I won't use them again.

It might be Cali grown lows, but its more than likely to be pgr buds from Thailand if its on here

Only a couple of vendors sell legitimate top shelf Thai

It doesn't advertise it as Cali lows, I fully suspect my 'deals of the week' haven't been such a good deal at all. Lesson learnt!
I'm happy with what the Gentlemen have supplied me and the hash from thegreenteam has been top notch for price.

Hi Trader24👍. Strangely enough had a guy ask me if I know anyone with decent thai weed? He was in Thailand for 6 months recently ,and says he smoked some of the best weed hes ever had over there 🤔 which 2 vendors do you recommend cheers 😉

Hydro can be used with organic nutes 🤦‍♂️

Not all PGR is bad, you’ll find a ton of growers using organic PGR like seaweed. Your claim that they are all safe is crazy though, some synthetic PGR have been linked with serious health issues.

Yes, I'm sure some have been linked. Smoking have been linked to serious health issues.
People vaped Vitamin E that have killed many until it's been figured out.
There are always bad apples but they are not the standards.

Sorry to say this info is completely wrong. PGR's used to grow weed force the plant to concentrate growing bud over leaf and stems etc, thats why the bud looks so abnormally large. PGR's are not found naturally in soil and have nothing to do with hydroponics, you can indeed have a completely organic hydro grow and you could also use food that contains PGR's in your soil grow. Also, you will now see many UK based plant food manufactuerers actually write "PGR free" as there have been studies linking PGR's to cancer.

From humboltseeds about pgr:
"They are often sold as nutrients, growth boosters, vitamins and hormone enhancers, that can be applied through foliar feeds and root drenches."

They buff up your plant and yes you can use them in soil but it isn't needed since the soil feed the plants with nutes while in hydro you must add the nutes no exeptions.

Abnormally large buds will grow on outside plants with plenty soil space where they can spread their roots freely. You can find videos of plants the size of a smaller house with buds the size of a human head.

I think the confusion is caused because the term 'organic' in food production is a protected term which means no fertilisers or pesticides were used in its production, not just that it is grown in soil.

Sorry I wanted but forgot to touch on the pesticides part which is a very important point.
So the long story short in a well controlled indoor grow environment you do not need to use any harmful pesticides because there's no bugs attacking your plants. This applies to both soil and hydro methods whilest growing outdoors is a constant battle against mites and buds eating your precious babies.
So organic still applies to indoor soil grow and to me at least implies no use of harmful chemicals but some places still add "with exceptions" statement at the end of their explanation:

"Organic foods are foods that are grown and processed using government-regulated farming methods. Organic farming and foods use: No synthetic fertilizers or pesticides (with exceptions)."

"Organic food is produced without artificial chemicals, hormones, antibiotics, or GMOs. It may have more nutrients, antioxidants, and omega-3 fatty acids than non-organic food, but the evidence is mixed."

This info about pests and pesticides is also completely wrong. Pests attack inside just as much as outside, and no growing method will stop this. Most growers use sprays up until the last few weeks of flower or as most organic growers do, they use predatory bugs to eradicate pestes such as spidermite, thrips, hops, springtails etc etc.

Sure they can infest an indoor grow which is why I added "in a well controlled enviroment". An honest good grower will throw away an infested room and sanitised it before restart. I've been there done that we never used any sprays. It can be done in a well controlled enviroment.

Spider mites are the number one reasons growers use indoor pesticides they literarily leave cobwebs covering your plants!

PGR’s were originally manufactured for industrial tomato’s growing industry. And have not been fully tested on the growing and consumption of Cannabis!

They are known to be carcinogenic best stay away if not growing tomatoes on industrial scales!

Please don't post claims without backing them up. Thank you

Reading this tells me you haven't got a clue about growing weed, the pictures above shows two different buds one whats been through a trimming machine. Pgr's have got harmful chemicals in them, using nutrients isn't pgr, pgr are used to bulk up the buds to get a higher yield.

My apologies I only grew on large scale for a decade so I have limited knowledge.
They are literally plant grow regulators not only used to bulk up the buds but all the way through. If they were harmful as you claim they would be banned from the shelves.

And yes they are sold as nutritients because that is what they are.
Once again there are exeptions but soon as they found out they are removed and banned from the shelves.

What an absolute load of nonsense.

"back then was grown in hydroponics (this grow method uses PGR)"

Back then? Hydroponics is still one of the most advanced types of growing, under neo grow techniques such as Aeroponics etc, but it's hardly a 90s phenomenon like Brain Adams ffs!! And NO, Hydroponics simply means water based, or without soil, more specifically 'hydro' meaning water and 'ponos' meaning labour.

H20 (or water) is pretty organic last time I checked.

"I'm not a doctor or anything"

Well, thank God for that.

"...but I beleive it's safe to say that PGR weed is just as safe as organic weed."

You have no real understanding or what either 'PGR' or 'Organic' in relation to cannabis cultivation actually means. There are many nutrients that could be classed as plant growth regulators, some natural, like PK 13/14 (phosphorous and potassium) or you might even say that seaweed and molasses "regulate" a plants growth and hence could be a "natural" PGR.

This is entirely different to synthetic chemicals, such as paclobutrazol and damizonode which are banned in the production of cannabis in California, and used heavily in the production of cannabis in South East Asia, in particular paclobutrazol, a carcinogen which produces very dense buds with little or no sugar leaves.

"My apologies I only grew on large scale for a decade so I have limited knowledge"

If that's the case I'd apologise to anyone who paid for your weed...

Never read such a load of jibberish than your posts on this thread. Stop pretending to be something you're not, because eventually you'll get called out by people who actually know what they are talking about.

No one said it was a 90's thing...
You will not grow shit with water alone, you need to add nutritiens a lot more than you would other wise add to soil that already has all the needed nutes.
No need to be offensive, all I wrote is true and I can back it up.

🍿

Pretty sure there’s even natural PGRs that can be used that don’t exchange quality for size

Holy shit! I mean, we knew these were widespread but now kids getting ahold of them and thinking they're weed?.... this is absolutely horrifying. And one vape contained traces of heroin too??? Honestly, with all the damage that spice can do, it shouldn't be a class B. It's like strawberries and arsenic being in the same category of food. If the UK government had ANY sense, which, when it comes to drugs, they do not, they'd reclassify spice as a class A. Hopefully that'd deter dealers from selling it in "weed vapes" and it'd almost certainly save lives. THIS is the true danger of cannabis... contaminated products and products sold as THC that actually contain none of it. The best thing we can do, as people who know this, is to spread the word and to NEVER buy a "weed vape" from an unknown source.

“ The best thing we can do, as people who know this, is to spread the word and to NEVER buy a "weed vape" from an unknown source.”

Wouldn’t that be a bit hypocritical coming from us Biggas who buy untold numbers of these these things on here every single day, often from vendors who have just popped up and without any idea where the products originate or what’s actually in them?…. Just sayin’….

Yeah, you've got a point, but I still think we've got a responsibility as consumers to make sure we know what we're buying as best as possible. As in, we should probably avoid "cali" carts with really thin liquid that's strong enough to knock out horses and maybe some edibles (the classic sprayed nerds ropes) altogether. With bud, if we don't know the source, it's best to get a cheap microscope and inspect things closely. Globs of pesticides/insecticides are sadly pretty common nowadays, and some bud has some pretty damaged, tiny or messy trichomes which could indicate PGRs, bad handling or even that someone has tried to sift the heads before selling it. And with hash, we can do the burn test and the hot water test, which are pretty unscientific but give you an indication of whether you've got clean product. So, I definitely see your point, but I still think it's partially down to us to choose reputable sources, inspect things ourselves and, if a product doesn't have a rating yet, to only buy stuff with less chance of contamination (again, probably avoid untested vapes and commercially produced edibles). And if we get a bad product, we owe it to the community to call it out. There is only so much we as consumers can do, but I think what we can do, we should do

Most do 20-25kg per person. Fernando hauling 6 peoples runs in 1 is crazy.

Mimosa 🤮😂
