You are completely killing me with this question as a gourmand and a massive stoner; you're crippling me with indecision.

🤣 it’s a hard one but I’m swaying on the side of food I love my takeaways and eating out, as much as that fire weed could possibly make you forget all that good food I’d know deep down 🤣

EASY one for me I'd take the finest weed every time!

I hate takeaways and eating out, partly because of OCD and partly because I worked in a few kitchens when I was much younger and my god..... people are vile, I only eat what I cook now!

and also all my food is the cheap basic grub anyway since I don't eat meat lol

Tbf I'm definitely on the side of the finest weed, was a chef for over 10 years so can adequately turn even the most basic of ingredients into something tasty 👀 used to make fancy edibles for fun 🔥

Come on guys finding loop holes 🤦‍♂️🤣 otherwise you could say turn the brickweed into extracts as comfortablenumb said it was hypothetical you had the options basic grub from cheap section ie ready meals cheap crap otherwise it’s just cooking and that is dependent on skill 🤷🏼‍♂️

Gonna still run the finest bud, some of them cheap section bits lowkey slap. Don't struggle shame me 🤣🤣

Would you rather drink the purest, freshest water and smoke brickweed or the finest buds + UK tap water? 👀👀

If it is just cheap ingredients, I will happily scratch cook for life and have good weed.
If it is cheap ready meals then I will be on the brick weed just hoping to find seeds and making some brickweed extracts 💚

Finest weed will make anything palatable. Good food will only remind you how crap your weed is. No-brainer for me 😊

finest bud and rubbish food ,,, its all gonna be 3d printed and bugs anyway .....

It's nearly impossible to fix bad weed, but more than entirely possible to turn the cheapest of the cheap ingredients into the most delectable food. So I'm gonna go with the finest weed for life 😂

Alcohol is the gateway. I’ve proved that to myself at this exact moment. I’m in Amsterdam, haven’t touched alcohol or any other narcotics in 3 years. I haven’t went a day without a smoke longer than youngster’s on here have had pubes🤣. Anyways decided I would have a beer, and I knew I was a changed person. My urge to go wild was there. I don’t mean violence, I mean the false confidence, the urge for more drugs and the amount of pish I would talk to my Mrs(not cheeky). Alcohol ruins life’s, I’ve continually watched this happen with family members. Just my opinion. 😁

Oh alcohol no doubt that’s when the bugle and other things can easily creep in and alone it’s destructive beyond belief but I do believe weed too young can be very addictive as the brains not fully developed and I’ve seen straight weed smokers when there was a drought end up on the Brown 🤦‍♂️ I think as an adult with pretty good mental health it can be a miracle for the mind and healing.

I’ve have my mental health problems and always will have. I used to plead with my dad not to drink from a very young age as I grew up with its destruction. In my opinion you shouldn’t even mention the two things in the same conversation. I am an addict myself, I used to self medicated every day since I was 14 and that started for me with booze. We all have different opinions so there’s no hate here, I feel equipped in life with a good knowledge of these subjects, but I battled through till I was 45 and that’s when things changed in my life for the better. I used the brown for 2 years at the age of 25-27 for my anxiety as the Valium didn’t work no more. We’re all different mate, nobody will ever have your experiences. I’m smoking some good shit by the way. 🤣🤝🏻

I pretty much always notice a correlation in the weed and drink being used for past trauma and mental health medications but in my personal experience with addictions and the such with trauma you’re literally just putting a plaster over a gaping wound and expecting it to heal itself and if you’d seen some of the people I’ve seen clucking picking joint buts up from the ground people become addicted to brown because could t get weed I’d say some people are just wired different and will seek solace in any addiction that temporarily relieves the pain in head or body and some folks are blessed to just get the munchies watch some great moves and feel iriee 👌 loving the discussion and peoples perspectives and personal experiences.

All good mate, the way I went was CBT, 3 years figuring out my problems and once I knew, changes everything. I now say every day we learn if you can be bothered. 😮‍💨🤝🏻

Same mate cbt and the likes and I’m around the same age I’m glad you’ve been able to find a blessed life through emotional intelligence and long may it continue!

Thank you! Respect. 😁

Clean from the brown? Good on you lad, I lost an uncle last year due to that stuff, He'd been an addict since Grandad died back in 98, and it finally got to him. I used to share a joint back with him in my teens, and he was full of knowledge. He is what swore me off of stronger drugs (though he always raved about acid and Mushies, but he saw them as non addictive, more of an experience).

Really just wanted to say good on you.

Thank you. The boys I did it with have all passed. I feel so lucky to still be here, gods truth. Respect.

This is the truth right here that us old skoolers know

You was made to be tuff. Fckd us up, but still here. Don’t let them get you down. 🫱🏻‍🫲🏾

I think smoking cannabis gives people with addictive personalities access to other drugs. You tend to gravitate towards fellow stoners, some of whom may partake in other substances, allowing access to it. Sometimes it's a regional/locality thing, some areas some drugs are easier to access.

This is my opinion though, yours may vary and is of no less importance than mine.

I agree and growing up around it all I’ve seen how people can slip so easily into other stuff and I’ve also witnessed plenty of people who are able to treat weed like an occasional drink me on the other hand I’m completely hopeless when it comes to weed I’m either all day everyday or nothing at all I’ve never been able to just have the occasional joint so I’d put myself in the addictive nature category lol great response thanks for the input 👍

Hey man, I smoke (Dry Herb Vape) daily/nightly, work dependent.

I don't think I have a problem. Do you think you have a problem? We all see these things differently. I am quite happy to be sober for work and have a smoke in me the rest of the time.

You sound like you’re good with your consumption and you’re working and doing other stuff so sounds pretty healthy to me, I personally am disabled and was smoking more and more Q/half a day and it just kills my motivation and my munchie cupboard 🤣

Different circumstances! I consume for mental health reasons, and its hard to make people understand that. I appreciate you opening up this discussion.

Me too but again too much and the overthinking kicks and seems to exasperate, my problem is the worse the pain the more I smoke the more I’m in this stoned bubble watching nevtflix all day lol I appreciate everyone contributing there different opinions and personal experiences.

In my opinion the Big White Elephant in the room that doesn't get discussed enough is strength. We are in effect in a whole new world of THC delivery and consumption now that bears no resemblance to the past.

Despite THC tolerance being well understood, as we fail to achieve our previous highs we look to ratchet up the strength of our chosen products and boy has the market delivered! I know so may people who instead of taking a tolerance break or applying a little moderation have switched to carts to extracts to concentrates- blasting 100% THC products constantly. Still not understanding what is happening they then ratchet up the equipment for maximum extraction.

These friends of mine might not be addicted but they sure as hell have a dependence. Even the thought of a T break scares the shit out of them. And I'm sorry to say this but they will use their medical 'needs' as a crutch and an excuse. I know people who drink alcohol to self medicate, its not always that different.

It doesn't get discussed honestly because there is of course a macho club to who can consume the strongest and the most (bit like booze again huh?). If somebody posts a warning on here saying "Jeez guys I had a 500mg Zombie Fucker last night and I was in a coma for two days and thought I was going to die!" the responses will be "I'm In!"..."Post a link" and the store will sell out the same day!

I'm really not preaching. I've tried them all and I love them all. I'm not sure if its a Gateway because I'm not sure if it needs to be- it may prove to be the destination all on its own.

I agree on this too, dependency is the big issue with a lot of things. I consume daily and I have found myself seeking out concentrates, burning through 3G in 2 days and going "Maybe I need a break".

We don't want to stop doing things we enjoy, its human nature.

Sometimes we need to though, for reflection, a clear mind maybe? It's hard, but worthwhile.

Hi Dbo

Certainly addictive personalities are a thing, it seems to be down to genetics like many other things.

I can certainly tell that this is the case with alcoholic tendencies often found with multiple members of the same family.

In that respect william.com is sharing a pearl of wisdom here: alcohol is the true evil and does immense damage to individuals and society.

But all this talk of weed being a gateway drug I have found to be an excuse for politicians looking for votes.

I'm saying that because weed being illegal is where the gateway is IMO: if you went to a weed dispensary you might never come into contact with powders, pills etc whereas when you have to buy it illegally from a shady guy down a dark alley that dealer often has his pockets full of other products as he had to branch out in other more lucrative illegal trades to stay in business.

I am well aware of the fact that with modern weed strains having been engineered via horticulture to maximize their potency the potential for mental health side effects and negative impact on youngsters are well documented.

When I started smoking in the mid 80s we could only get landrace from Zaire and other parts of Africa or traditional hashes from Lebanon and Morocco.

The stuff they produce nowadays I often found to be too strong (bouts of paranoia, tachycardia, etc) and not so enjoyable compared to the smooth high and feel good vibe you get from a true landrace.

Very well put and the part about the modern strains I’d say you hit the nail on the head! I smoke a classic og kush or the likes with a bit of cbd in I’m good some of the modern stuff makes you feel like curtain twitching and putting a tinfoil hat on 🤣 thank you for everyone’s input it’s interesting to see others perspectives.

Hi Dbo

Not sure what the status is as I stopped smoking more than 2 years ago but there used to be a few Landrace sellers round here.

The best was by far Hashishin though, its hashes were the real old school thing.

🤣🤣🫱🏻‍🫲🏾

Correct my friend, totally. Probs about the same age so smoking Thai, paki black, gold seal, red seal. The gold and red sent you one way or the other. 🤣😁

Hi William

Red Lebanese is what I started with.

After a year or so we couldn't get it anymore.

My first hash was straight out my mates brothers arse from Morocco. He arrive home in the morning and we was smoking 6hrs later. Good shit🤣

I personally wouldn’t say so, weed was about the seventh substance I tried and it never made me crave much else. I think it did the opposite and made me calm down my use of other substances. I would say, though, that the communities I’ve joined and friends I’ve made while partaking have been the biggest influence on me trying other substances, which seems to also be in line with what Shetlad said.

I think you went the other way most people start with the weed but you went uppers? Then I imagine the weed was like a big chill compared to a mad buzz and comedown and you found your friend in weed.

I definitely started things very weirdly. I don’t think I’ve actually done any uppers. I started with DMT and fell in love, binged that and a bunch of other psychedelics for about two years before I started weed, tried ket and MDMA but never liked them that much. Sober on psychedelics for a year and a half now due to severe hppd. I’ve definitely found my friend in weed, but man is it hard to moderate. I’ve been able to get my consumption down to .5-1g a day with a ball vape, whereas before it was 2-3G+. Even with just .5 a day, the brain fogs awful, so will probably need to decrease more.

I’m one for a ego reset every year I’ll do a run of shrooms and a few big trips seems to help my depression for up to a year each time before I find it creeping back in like nosferutu lol that’s a great decrease in consumption but you’re not going overboard but it’s all person maybe try a bit of L lions Maine mushrooms supposed to be good for brain function.

No not a gateway to anything. Ive smoked for nearly 30 years and used to do a LOT of blow but thats ADHD related not related to each other. I dont drink anymore or touch other drugs. Alcohol is a gateway drug and 1000x more damaging, addictive and dangerous than any strain of weed that has ever or will ever exist

Check it out, booze is the WORST drug for all society, on the same level as heroin and costs the tax payer more than any other controlled substance in crime, nhs, damage, rtc's etc.

I think it can go both ways.
For me as a teen I started with weed, then ecstasy, then alcohol, then lsd.
For me it was a gateway cos I was looking for different ways to get high.
I’ve grown out of many things and am happy with the occasional edible to get a great sleep and microdose psychedelics for mental health.
Alcohol gives me mad anxiety so I tend to steer clear of that. I’m 46 btw

But for others they use weed to keep off other drugs/ drink.
Have you ever been heard the term “Cali-sober”?

Im 40 mate and Ive done the lot but it wasnt because I smoked weed and you say yourself you were actively looking for a different high.

I used to do coke and speed, drink 10-15 red bulls a day and smoke fags like a 50's movie star. But for me it was all fixed with ADHD and ASD meds. I still smoke a lot of pot but for specific reasons. Booze makes me over confident and then mega depressive or agressive, really not good for me either. Does microdosing really help? Im mad as a box of frogs so ive always refrained from trying tbh

I truly feel cannabis would be seen very very different if it was legal, people would treat it more medicinally. But its all hypothetical still sadly

No not heard cali sobre, but I'll check it out now.

It fits into the same old pattern, use a tragedy to make money. A tighter reign on Vegas means lots of profitable busts for the departments and cash for the enforcers on the street.

You got it and take away people's civil liberties under the guise of protecting us

24 hour turn around + low cost - Private Message me please.

This guy got me a nice working website and hosted for cheap. Thanks MyHops US2UK

Im also able to help but may I have more details.
Whats the project goal and what packages should I be expected to know?

I know a guy called Claude who can help

Pornhub meets indiegogo, wanna call it gofuckme.

Happy to help, my day job is a full stack developer know python inside out used to working on small and enterprise projects.

DM me if still looking

I can also help if you are still looking for someone

My understanding is that when LB started about 15 years ago it wasn’t a cannabis site- you could sell anything under the ‘Do No Harm’ premise. In theory you still can but eBay etc have kind of got it wrapped up…

I wonder who the longest serving Bigga still active today is?….

Non contaminated Dawg with a flavour profile

I can remember the putrid smell of dawg to this day 😂

Funny funny

I made some THC beef jerky a couple of years back.

Haven't seen the erotica before, that's a good find 😅

Erotica has an 8/10 rating, day-time smoke I'd say.

Beef jerky doesn't sound that bad to be fair, I see lots of savory options popping up here.

I would love to see some THC Jellied Eels available 😂

Jelly and eels would be easier to make, like when you get bits of fruit in jelly 😅

This war food reminds me of going to Highbury in the 90’s.
The stands outside the pubs.
Cockles n welks- yes.
These godforsaken slippery things-nah.

Be careful what you wish for🤢

Bring the almonds back! Best tasting edible I’ve ever had

You classing erotica as weird or wonderful is the main question!

OnlyFans charge 20% commission
LB charge 15% maximum.

OnlyBigz launching soon.

Smart moves, player.

That's surely worthy of a reference token bump.

Cough.....

Post OnlyBigz link once live I will sign up

I was being sarcastic, sorry buddy.

thought you were serious lol

Few beats on here..
Check out Black Scarf on #SoundCloud
https://soundcloud.app.goo.gl/XTxEX

I like it.. Could smoke to this

Thanks mate. It's recommended and you're in the right place for both x

Just got to Hurts on the track listing, really good with my coffee and vape so far 🙌 just the perfect soundtrack ❤️ by that I mean all the tracks so far 👍

Thank you so much mate. Means a lot. You'd be surprised how few people I've ever played my beats to. For context Hurts was from a beat battle flipping Joy Crookes "Hurts" sample, so that was done in an hour as I was late haha. Most of the new ones are small clips of projects started but never finished, and loads I've never even posted over the years

Really enjoyed my morning with your tunes ☺️ can't believe you put Hurts together in an hour 🤯

Proper lovely vibe to it all ❤️

Thanks Rabb1t, grew up listening to conscious hip hop and indie while the boys were on mobb deep, Wu tang etc, so that will reflect. Didn't help find MCs though over the years, hence never really finished anything of substance. I've had no outlet for these, no vocalists etc so now it's just challenging myself to find, then flip a sample as creatively as possible. Again mate humbled by the praise thanks

Cool stuff! Nice vibes 👌🏼

Much appreciated mate, thanks

100% inspired by Kweli, Mos Def, Dilla and much of the conscious hip hop. Was stuck in a rut for a while, struggled with the workflow but been trying to self-teach the MPC software recently so found a bit more of a spark, started to go again so may upload some more clips. Always looking to collab mate, I'm not precious on any of these beats they are old, collecting dust and I'd happily throw the MP3's to an MC who could use them. Send us a DM or add on Soundcloud mate.

100% mate legend of the game. His latest with Common was solid 👌

Thank you, it's my kind of chilled out vibe, I wish you all the best for the future.

You are exposing urself on clear net?

Nothing to hide mate

Similarly to another comment, I play bass and guitar as well as making digital music. I love vintage synths from the 70s/80s. Cannabis is great for getting into that creatve zone.

A long time ago in a glaxay far far away I found a copy of Ableton for my pc...

https://soundcloud.com/deadrabb1t

Yeah... 😂

Good man dust off those keys!!

Always making music, around 30 years now. Play bass, some guitar and keys.. Nowadays making electronic music with Ableton.
Used to play bass for a living around 10 years ago. Spending whole summers at festivals up and down the country and sometimes into Europe.
Fun times

🙌 bass players unite 😉 though oddly enough not on either of the two lots I have posted 🤔

Ableton makes my head hurt but it doesn't matter as my mate has kidnapped my focusrite DAC so I have no monitoring on my pc 😂

Accidentally pulled off the on/off button to my monitor a couple of weeks ago.. I'm now reliant on the the fact it stays in standby mode. Power up the PC.. Then wiggle the mouse for visuals

😁😂

Iv been releasing underground dance music for a while, iv played at MOS back in the day. you can buy my stuff on beatport juno and toolboxdigital however no way am i giving anymore details which is a pity as i would love you to all help with my buy a new ferrari fund 😜

I use fruity loops as it has free updates for life, Ableton charges you 💩

Take it you're a fellow hard houser? I had a number one on toolbox couple of years back. More a dj than producer me. Haven't bothered for few years now. Played some awesome gigs back in the day 😀

No way you boys are hard housers? I used to go sunnys and imsomniacz/tidy, still go to weekenders now and again haha good to see there are still more of us

Loves the HH me 😻

Go hard or go home 💪🏡😅

My pal's DJ channel is here, Trance and House mostly - they're free to listen to and good for a perk up, when needed:


https://www.mixcloud.com/BlueOrbElectronica/

Link updated..

Riley uk soundclick.com

I make amapiano and dance music

Aye, been in several bands that have done pretty well, was a dubstep DJ for a good few years, these days I play with some local bluegrass people, fiddle about with synths/FL studio and have recently got my mixing gear back

I used to dabble in Ableton Live for years when I was younger. I could probably get back into it if I have time.

Oh snap if you want some good music check out this new artist I’ve been listening too his name is saint bev here’s his SoundCloud link!!!

I do random electronica

i use ableton personally but ive been stuck in a rut past few months, any advice from anyone?

Am currently abusing a guitar to be able to make a lot of noise on my own

Three outputs

One covers 6 strings
On covers the two lowest and it's pitched down an octave
One covers the three highest

Pocket operator (calculator thing).does rhythm

Guitar is tuned to A

I play guitar and make beats, weed definitely helps with creativity for sure

Is it just me or can you have total contents at 105%? (won’t it leak out the sides?😝)…does it mean that 8% of the 97% THC distillate is made up of terpenes?…even though that doesn’t make much sense either🤷‍♂️…just askin’…maybe I’m daft…

Not a daft question at all lol
So yes as dbo stated

97% THC distillate is used (potency)
8% terpenes

So total 92% THC distillate
8% terpenes

Correct!!

I'm sitting here with my popcorn on this one can't wait to how it turns out.
