LB... What are you playing at!
I know I know, topic of the day again, but Jesus Christ you guys are actually taking the piss now. Not even a slither of a letter let alone a full word on wtf is going on with alternative payments.
How long has it been since the high traffic volume? One almost 2 months ago perhaps even longer. Yet you can't even have the decency to at least explain why you're not doing shit? If it's difficult, say so. If there's problems, say so. The sheer fact that not a single person from this site has said ANYTHING regarding this and is just treating it like "eventually they'll cave and start paying it" is quite frankly bullshit. You can keep thinking you're okay in your little holes but when one goes down another comes along. How long before someone comes to take your position of being the best if not only place to buy easily online in the UK. I bet not long at all. In the long run, it's only yourselves you are hurting (let alone the countless amount of vendors you're currently fucking over too). When we all pick up and leave, I hope maybe then some words will leave your mouth. At this point I see absolutely no harm in listing other places you can buy/sell online, because if you're not willing to put yourself in a position to help us and your vendors, then why in the hell should we care about your little rules either....
The only thing we have are past "topics" regarding the matter years ago when it was spoken about... Still not good enough. Can we even guarantee these same issues you were previously having are still an issue? Who knows because you.don't.speak.

I remember seeing this at the time of them posting but again the issue; is it even gonna happen. They may have this “insider” information but that’s all it’s ever been. Just insider information. To the general users of this site, it’s still a shot in the dark. To us, there’s no guarantee they are even going to implement it. There’s never any transparency on here, just guess and hope for the best and I think people are all out of hope my brother.
If anything is going on in the background then Borg themselves should come out and mention it. We’re not expecting paragraphs of information, just a hint of what’s going on. If it’s the fear of it not working and people being let down then if I’m honest I’d very much rather be let down and know that they are at least trying rather than sitting in a dark room alone. That’s just my take on it

This reminds me of one of those watering holes in the bush where all the animals come to drink but as each day passes there is less water until eventually you can see the fish all huddled together gasping for air.
Cost of packaging up, cost of fuel up everything is more and then take into account the seasonal scammers that target vendors and no help from refund borg even with proof that the said scammer has received the goodies absolute daylight robbery, in some weeks we are lucky to even break even.
I am sure some people believe that postage and packaging is free in this country and it does not cost anything.
Just like the UK and everywhere else in the western world it seems this place is going to the dogs and it is so sad to watch. And if you happen to point out the facts you then get labelled by some wokey cokey.
I pray for the day that common sense comes back and it is Merry Christmas not Happy fucking holidays!

Couldn’t have said it better. I’ve been saying this country is beyond repair for years now. The Western world all used to frown upon the teachings of the east, now look who’s feeling the pain from it.
EVERYTHING is a cost in this country, I’m surprised we’re not getting Congestion Charges for walking places let alone vehicles. Countless times a year, new propositions are made to screw over the public whilst the rich don’t feel a thing. They love to say that it’s “beneficial for the country” when in reality it’s only beneficial to those that can afford it to begin with. In my opinion, the whole 5p a plastic bag rule made years ago was really what kicked this sort of shit into action. Just 5p was enough for them to want more

Medium Grade UK Review!

Medium Grade UK Review!
Well, I'm back to the last couple reviews. I was reluctant to do them due to the reception last time however I had some people comment and message me that have bought since. If it helps even a couple, then I'm willing to continue. If you feel reluctant to read due to past circumstances, then that's perfectly understandable. That being said, due to them being within the same batch, these were again sent as a freebie. Regardless let's get into it. Being as there's only two strains, they will be my usual detailed reviews. You can check them out from the link above!
Watermelon Pie:
Packaging:
Instead of constantly repeating myself on this subject and it being the same vendor from previous reviews, I will no longer list the packaging from GC. I will only add it if there's been differences from before, in this case, everything is as usual. You can check my previous reviews if you want more details on packaging.
Appeal:
At first glance, the nugs look quite dense and firm. Once picked up however you soon realise it's a lot stickier than expected. Has a lot of purple leaves mixed with the typical orange hairs we're all used to seeing now. When you break it apart you can definately feel the THC stick to your hand. Once broken apart it almost feels quite fluffy compared to sticky, like touching a pillow.
Smell:
It has a unique fruity smell to it I'm sure however I wouldn't really say it resembles watermelon personally. For me it smelt more of a mixed berries with a much softer potency than the actual thing. Once ground it definately smells much stronger but the smell doesn't differ much. This I like as I feel nowadays it's difficult to have bud that smells the same once ground out.
Taste/Smoke:
Quite a mellow smoke. I enjoyed smoking this one in the morning. I suffer from headaches when I wake up and usually smoking makes it worse (who would have thought). I didn't get that with this, it enlightened me and made me feel more awake. In terms of the taste, I felt more of a sour melon come through more than anything but not watermelon. Very similar taste to a sour lemon haze but without the haze qualities. Quite odd to smoke but not exactly hard to smoke either. Also interesting that whilst smoking, I didn't get any of the mixed berry qualities come through that I had when smelling it.
Amnesia Haze:
Appeal:
This looked exactly how I would expect amnesia to look. Bright orange hairs and quite thin long buds. This is how proper amnesia should look in my opinion. Similar to Super Silver or old school White Widow. Wasn't too dense either which I feel most modern grown haze is. Had that perfect mix of being dense but airy.... Dairy...
Smell:
Not as strong as you may predict, may even throw you off originally of thinking if it is amnesia or not. Once you break it apart you can definately smell that ammo but again, not as strong as I was expecting it to be. I'm still in two minds if this is a good thing or not. When I get haze, I also have the expectancy of it being strong and to knock me out. Nowadays however after after all these years smoking, I think it's for the best. I need to relax not fly so this one really does depend on what you're looking for to begin with. This personally to me has a very mellow amnesia smell compared to what I'm used to.
Taste/Smoke:
I feel most of what I've said in the previous section regarding the smell sort of comes in to play here too. When smoking it's again not as strong as expected. In comparison to my thoughts on the smell, it packs more of a punch than it lets off, but still has a mellow vibe to it. I hope everything I've been saying actually makes sense as it's quite difficult to explain this Amnesia. I think due to me not having it in so long and with all the different levels of potency you can get nowadays, it doesn't really scratch that itch anymore. My reasoning for purchasing this now I'd say would probably be purely for the haze feeling that is so hard to come across now. Although it may not be as strong as I expected, it's still a haze, and if a haze is what you're after then you still cannot go wrong.
Final Thoughts:
Would I agree with them being classed as medium? Yes. They aren't top of the line however they are also far from terrible. I would say I enjoyed the Watermelon Pie more purely because it was new and I didn't have any expectations. It was just very difficult to explain that strain and put it into words. Something like Amnesia, a strain I've had countless times, I can typically write more about. This can be said about any new strain that I've tried. I tend to struggle putting across something that is still new to me and results in slimer description that what some would expect. I hope that explains to some people why some of my detailed reviews aren't quite detailed as mentioned. The haze is just fortunate to have my 14 year old self as reference rather than if it was a first try.
Watermelon Pie - 8/10
Amnesia - 7/10

Low Grade UK Review!

Low Grade UK Review!
This is the last review out of that bunch. Hopefully these reviews have helped people make an informative decision regardless of the controversy. Once again, I will not be listing packaging on this particular review. Please see previous reviews for packaging information. You can find the link to the listing above.
Appeal:
Honestly, not the best to look at. It seems something may have gone wrong with the grow and the buds are quite leafy and with quite a few stems. I would say it does have the Super Silver qualities however. Thinner nugs rather than fat and quite airy. This is typically how SSH is grown however I'd say this definately had a poor grow in some sort of way.
Smell:
The smell is actually incredible. It smells pretty much exactly how you expect SSH to smell. Has that very strong haziness to it and it's almost as if you can feel the THC run through your nose. Once ground, nothing changes, if anything it gets better. Considering the nugs aren't the best, the grinding experience wasn't any different than normal weed. Actually ground out to a decent amount but that smell really reminded me why any Haze is my favourite strain.
Taste/Smoke:
Does exactly what it says on the tin. Makes you feel like you're actually gliding on Silver Surfers hoverboard. The smell doesn't just stay in your grinder, the second your spark that joint you'll be hit with that same aroma. The following points I'd say is probably due to the poor grow. Although the smell is there from the joint itself, it doesn't quite come through the same when smoking it. Same with the overall strength. It seems as if it was potentially rushed leading to the poor nug structure and potentially lower THC count. I would not however say it's weak. The strength is still there but I can imagine if the grow was spot on, it would be a lot stronger.
Final Thoughts:
It's a shame it's a poor grow, otherwise I would have rated this 10/10. Super Silver is one of my all time favourite strains and whenever I'm in Dam, it's always the one I smoke the most. I think if you were to buy this basing it off Dam quality, then you'd be slightly disappointed. But as the title says, GC has marked it as low grade. You can't expect import level of quality with something this cheap. That being said, due to the price, it's also not a waste. If you don't like it, you don't like it. I personally would not be disappointed if I did buy it once I got past the grow issues.
6.5/10

High Grade UK Review!

High Grade UK Review!
These will just be smaller reviews due to the amount of strains there are. Hopefully this doesn't hinder the views and opinions that I usually come across. There's also a few people "upset" I guess at the fact I'm getting send products in favour of making a review. Whilst this is true, it doesn't automatically mean all my reviews are dishonest or invalid. I review everything with the intention of helping people make easier decisions rather than guessing or hoping it's going to be for you. I have had items sent by GC that have had no effect and opted out of doing said review. If I cannot be honest with my review then I will simply not do it at all, If there are points/things I do not like, I also state so too, just like any other review I have done. I have done a review for TGT which was purchased by myself, the quality of the review was no different. Whether it's bought or sent to me, the review will not change. Regardless, let's crack on. You can look at the strains from the link above.
Orange Slushy:
I'm a sucker for orange bud so this was 10/10. The nugs were really dense and the tanginess was amazing. Grinds out really well and you can even smell the orange from the smoke coming off the joint. Not too much on the chest either but it packs a big high when smoking yet still creeps up on you. I've never been able to top any of the cherry pie strains as those are my favourite but this is definately second for sure.
Sherbet OG:
This is a strong one. Reminded me a lot of Stardawg in terms of the nugs. Has that gassy smell and extremely dense nugs with loads of orange hairs. Once ground out though the Dawg qualities are gone. Still has that gassy smell to it but you also get that kushness from it too. I think the Cherry Pie in Sunset Sherbet gets dwarfed by everything else which is unfortunate, the only qualities that really follow over is the cake like smell. Overall the smoke is very thick and chesty. I'd recommend smoking this one midday once you've warmed up. Early morning will put you out for the day and "bedtime" joint won't really mean bedtime once smoked. 8/10 purely because I'm not much of a fan of SS anyway.
Lemonlato:
This reminded me of the Sherbet OG, probably because it is basically the same cross too. I'd say this is a bit weaker in strength compared to the Sherbet but it's still defo strong. For whatever reason this one for me was very forgettable. I think it's potentially because it's so similar to the Sherbet that my mind can't quite differ them especially when smoked on the same day. I will however say that I preferred the taste of this more than the Sherbet. Having that lemon taste/smell to it meant it was a lot easier to smoke. Not as strong on the chest but with the same potency as the Sherbet. 7/10
Cheesecake Pie:
I saved this one till last purely because of how amazing it smelt. It literally just smelt like a cheesecake. Definately the strongest smelling out the whole lot that's for certain, and definately my favourite smelling weeds ever. I would have been happy to just leave this in my jar and keep smelling it daily. When ground it's no different if not better. I'd say it smells more like chocolate cheesecake. Grounds out really well and the nugs are average. When smoking you still get that cheesecake taste which is nice. Not so strong when smoking it but it's definately a creeper. This is an easy 10/10 especially with how amazing it smells.
Bubblegum Sherbert:
This was a deceiving one, in many different ways. In terms of the strain, it's exactly what it says on the tin. When you smell even just the nugs, you get a massive whiff of bubblegum. I myself am a fan of bubblegum but I know not a lot of people are. If you're not a fan then you probably wouldn't like it as it really does have a strong scent. When you break it apart only then will you get the sherbet smell. This was probably the most dense out the bunch. Boulder like buds and were really hard to break apart. It was deceiving when it was ground out as it would tickle your nose due to the strong THC scent. You really didn't get that from smelling the nugs. It was again deceiving when smoking it as it was quite harsh and you didn't get much of the bubblegum or sherbet flavour. In terms of strength, it's 100% the strongest out the lot. Doesn't matter what you've smoked before, this wants to take over. If it wasn't for the smoke, this would be an easy 10 however I have to rate a 9/10.
Cookies & Cream:
This was one of the strongest out of the bunch. This was the strongest on the chest too, you really felt this one go down. The taste was incredible however, It's been a while since I've had Cookies & Cream so I can't quite remember what it was like, especially nowadays with all the different types of cookies going around, the original can get drowned. The colour on the bud when ground was an extremely light green, haven't seen weed like this in a while. Was a very slow burner, very good as a night time joint or before bed. The smoke was very thick as you would expect. I think this one would be a difficult one to smoke regularly due to the strength however would be nice as a luxury every now and then. 10/10
Grapefruit Juice:
Probably the most appealing and tasty weeds I've had since Cherry Pie, and that's my all time favourite strain. The buds were glowing lime green with glowing orange hairs too. Dense but also fluffy nugs at the same time. Not dense enough where it feels like a boulder but enough to where it grinds out really well. The smell from this was incredible, even more so when it's ground out. It really does smell like grapefruit and it really comes through on the taste as well. It's not potent enough to where you don't want to smoke another, it makes you want to keep smoking it due to how tasty it is. I know I said the Orange Slushy was #2 of my top strains but I'm afraid it now has to move down to #3. 10/10
Stardawg:
Everyone and their nan knows what Stardawg is. This was no exception. Soon as you open the bag, you can smell that brutal dawg smell. Most people I can imagine have only really ever tried Stardawg from local dealers on the streets and we claim it "dirty dawg". From experience, it's all I've ever had too, this really changed my perspective on Stardawg. You still get the typical Dawg qualities, that gassy smell and the denseness of the nugs. This however is a much smoother smoke. Not as strong on the chest and for once I didn't get a headache which I always do when smoking Dawg. I'm glad I actually go to try what proper Dawg is like, it's a shame it's name has been tarnished over the years. 8/10
Final Thoughts:
Would I class it as high grade? 100%. A lot of these bought me back to the old days of smoking, when I would actually feel it. Many tasty and different types of weed that you can take a shot at 2 of them and at least be happy with 1. As you can tell, I'm not a Sherbet guy so I have more bad to say about those but it's purely a preference thing. Overall the quality of these strains are 10/10 and I wouldn't really downplay any of these. Maybe Stardawg should be in the medium section purely because it's Dawg, but at the same time I do understand why it's there.
Orange Slushy:
I'm a sucker for orange bud so this was 10/10. The nugs were really dense and the tanginess was amazing. Grinds out really well and you can even smell the orange from the smoke coming off the joint.

Probably the most appealing and tasty weeds I've had since Cherry Pie, and that's my all time favourite strain. The buds were glowing lime green with glowing orange hairs too. Dense but also fluffy nugs at the same time. Not dense enough where it feels like a boulder but enough to where it grinds out really well. The smell from this was incredible, even more so when it's ground out. It really does smell like grapefruit and it really comes through on the taste as well. It's not potent enough to where you don't want to smoke another, it makes you want to keep smoking it due to how tasty it is. I know I said the Orange Slushy was #2 of my top strains but I'm afraid it now has to move down to #3. 10/10
Stardawg:
Everyone and their nan knows what Stardawg is. This was no exception. Soon as you open the bag, you can smell that brutal dawg smell. Most people I can imagine have only really ever tried Stardawg from local dealers on the streets and we claim it "dirty dawg". From experience, it's all I've ever had too, this really changed my perspective on Stardawg. You still get the typical Dawg qualities, that gassy smell and the denseness of the nugs. This however is a much smoother smoke. Not as strong on the chest and for once I didn't get a headache which I always do when smoking Dawg. I'm glad I actually go to try what proper Dawg is like, it's a shame it's name has been tarnished over the years. 8/10
Final Thoughts:
Would I class it as high grade? 100%. A lot of these bought me back to the old days of smoking, when I would actually feel it. Many tasty and different types of weed that you can take a shot at 2 of them and at least be happy with 1. As you can tell, I'm not a Sherbet guy so I have more bad to say about those but it's purely a preference thing. Overall the quality of these strains are 10/10 and I wouldn't really downplay any of these. Maybe Stardawg should be in the medium section purely because it's Dawg, but at the same time I do understand why it's there.
That is a lot of free weed! I’m just surprised GC didn’t spread it about a bit to get a broader range of reviews/opinions?….just sayin’…
^^^
The reviews don’t tell me much tbh, thick / chesty + 2 listed as most potent.
Will wait on some other reviews I think as not got loads to blow this month and want a tasty terps.

If u wanna feel loved I'm willing to send u sample off the yellow Z I’m currently shifting. It’s nice smoke. 😁
This is a fair point, although last time I sent out free samples to various people to be smoked and reviewed, 80% of them ghosted after receiving.
Hence I would rather stick to one reliable and unbiased person such as Alleyne.

Sure, there is no perfect solution to trying to create a bit of noise about your store 👍
Personally I think including a nug of a different strain with an order is the best way overall. It might not always get a review but will always be appreciated and you don’t pick up much additional cost because you are sending out an order anyway (I’m not saying you don’t already do this!). We all love a Brucie Bonus! 😍

I would agree sweetener in with product is always a treat. You can review of course but for me it’s more the fact that you can then comment in threads and discussions but most importantly. Behind the scenes advise others that you talk to.
I like the intro offers that The Green Team do. They're cheap and there's usually 25 offers available for each strain. Biggas love a bargain so they're usually gone within 24 hours and they'll get a bunch of reviews for a new product.
So did I and still do. One month I did the intro tally and let’s say I could have got more than into lol 😂
You’re right tho especially the expense of some of the higher end ones. For me that’s a lot of coin on something I’ve not tried.

This is a good idea, we will start adding small samples of other strains within the same shelf bracket.
We may also do a few 12x1g sample packs of the new products for a limited time. 👍

I wouldn’t say it’s a fair point. People were happy with my reviews prior to knowing now all of a sudden it’s a problem. If they were “okay” before then how has this changed anything? If people were so happy with my reviews before but now want to wait for others to review (which they won’t because there’s physically no incentive to making a topic review for any user whatsoever), how can you even guarantee the next reviewer or the one after that is doing the exact same shit as me? How can you be certain ANY review on here is legit if this is the case. People don’t see behind the scenes and people don’t know everything. GC has sent stuff to me, GC has sent stuff to other people. Clearly as he said, people didn’t bother which is obviously why no other fucker has done one. If people are getting sent free shit and STILL not incentive to do so, then what will? You only see the reviews that I have put up and not the times where GC has sent stuff (out of his pocket btw) that has had no effect on me, like the gummies. Who has that helped? He’s lost money sending a product intended for a review, the only person who has gained there is me. I’m tired of people acting like the review is their main issue when it’s clearly just saltiness. If you don’t ask you don’t fucking get, most of you will be happy to sit here bitching yet not do a single thing about it. I help GC out with various other things other than just reviews, we both pay each other back with a favour here a favour there. If you don’t like the fact I’m getting sent shit, then ask around. There’s plenty of newer vendors that need this exact same thing. Its been happening and will keep happening for as long as this site is up. People act like it’s a “new” thing when in reality it’s been here from the get go. If you were offered, you would say yes too, don’t bullshit yourself. I still buy products from GC like any normal person when it comes to personal use
Wow, you sound angry…jeez Louise!….
And if the statement “If you were offered , you would say yes too, don’t bullshit yourself”, is aimed at me then how wrong you are. I’ve politely turned down three offers in the last couple of months. Like I say, I’m always delighted to receive a Brucie Bonus having placed an order. Getting a dozen strains just seems OTT to me, and your angry response and sweary language says quite a lot about it.
Has it occurred to you that biggas weren’t responding to your reviews because they weren’t a great read?….less can be more you know😉

Let’s not get heated over nothing here. We all want the same thing.
Can’t please everyone all of the time on the internet, prime example:
Apex wants more details, polly wants less details.
Everyone is different and we all prefer things done our own way but we are all shooting towards the same goal here.

I get angry when I ignore bullshit for weeks then finally reply? No it wasn't directed to you specifically otherwise I would have put your name, I'm not an indirect person. However being as you clearly want it to be let's make it. You deciding to turn offers down is on you. Maybe 12 is OTT, but I'm also not going to turn it down. I'm not controlling GC and what he's doing, if he wants to he can and he can to plenty of other people too. I'm not going to sit here and be upset if he suddenly decided to change person, it's his shop, he can do what he wants. Your comment about the "angry response says a lot" really doesn't say anything. It says that I'm angry... That's it. How it relates to me being sent freebies is plainly stupid...
Your dig at my reviews is also childish as I didn't even mention anything about my reviews I mentioned about other people not making them and me being the only person to be actually bothered to do so. Clap clap you again make a braindead comment. It's even more contradicting when you've commented on literally every review I've done and not said shit then? Now you wanna say something because you felt like I targeted you. Well I've targeted you now so what now? If you didn't like my reviews, why bullshit yourself in the comments of them. Less really is more pollypuff

Look Sweary Mary, it’s like this- you even start your review with a defensive and slightly angry paragraph so you were on the back foot right there. Will many Biggas be sceptical about a review of a dozen freebies claiming to be entirely “unbiased”?- of course they will!…that’s why you came out on the defence.
Yup, GC can throw you the keys to the store if they want to and very good luck to you, well done, matters not a jot. But a little self effacing humour and a light heart of fortune when reviewing would serve you much better than simply going into a foul mouthed rant.
It just reinforces that the whole thing is a bit off. Does it matter in the scheme of things?…nah….

Ultimately an incentivised review is never going to be taken the same way as a review of a product that has been paid for. You get shit weed for free, you bin it and move on. You pay for shit weed and you're out of pocket, and potentially weed, if that was your only budget for that week/month. It's also the reason why the lowest scores on 'incentivised' reviews are 7/10 in general. If you give 1/10s you're not just going to alienate the vendor who sent it, other vendors may wish to not risk the bad press that could come their way. Only reviewing the good products whilst ignoring the bad doesn't really help anyone and it detracts from the credibility of the positive reviews.
I like the reviews on the topics board, it keeps things lively and they give more detail than most reviews on the product page. Alleyne could have not stated anything about getting the buds for free and nobody would be any wiser, so I respect their transparency. People can make their own minds up, but I wouldn't want to see Alleyne or anyone else stop reviewing.

Hey Blazin’….yeah, I agree, I like reviews and Alleyne’s reviews and I don’t really give a toss if product is free or not. My comment about this review not being a “good read” is because it’s hard to read 8 strain reviews together- they just all blur to me. Better to break them up imo.
Transparency is good but you can’t manage Biggas natural scepticism by firing from the hip!🤠💥

Spot on man. Mail head
👏👏👏👏👏
It’s like the reviews left after the purchase. Right off the bat I’m at least taking a point or two off because of the 10/10 not tried it gang. 10/10 with no comment.

You’re right polly I mentioned above but reading the comments and going back and reading. It’s as if the backlash was preempted and defensive.
This is most likely because another vendor we will not name right now, created an alt and called out Alleyne for “receiving free gifts for good reviews” although this was deleted by the cleanup Borg - this is maybe where the confusion is stemming from.
That might be the case but you only know what you know 🤷♂️
The only difference being that it’s stated that it was for free. Which is the best way in my opinion. Then your own judgement can be made.
I just think that it escalated quickly and off point. That might be the reason as you said but if you’re putting topics / views out there free or not. Unfortunately trolls is an evil we all have to bare.
My last point would be that Alleyne was called out for getting free gear for positive reviews.
As I said being free is lower down the list than integrity. Alleyne has stated that they would not post a bad review.
Is that because that if you have nothing to say don’t say anything or don’t bite the hand that feeds you. That’s not directed at Alleyne or yourself just a general thought on reviewing in general

In regards to Alleyne not posting a review if it’s a genuinely negative one, in my case this only happened once and was the Edibles. This is just due to Alleynes own personal tolerance - but they did not even touch him so he saw no point in doing that review.
If Alleyne smoked any of these bud samples and genuinely thought they were a 5/10 or whatever, I would not protest or block the review 👍

Glad you agree on the 5/10 ect but by not posting the review on edibles is defeating the purpose.
For instance if they did not effect him then I would then be informed that not only there Torrance level. Which in turn gives better context to the reviews given and going forward.
There was no need to mention it 🤷♂️ but by doing so has opened Pandora’s box 📦

I've personally offered Pollypuff20 free samples in the past, which they have declined. What they are saying is entirely true.
And GC knows I've got absolutely nothing against him, infact quite the opposite, but I have to defend someone when I know they are telling the truth.
Personally, after the way you conduct yourself when getting even a minor amount of criticism, I wouldn't trust your reviews at all, but that's just my opinion, and we all have one.
Cheers BB

Hehe, as you know I’m not that Saintly, I love to try anything new. I like doing reviews if I’ve got something that might be interesting to say, I just don’t like feeling committed to doing reviews because it was a freebie. I am often amazed by how generous LB vendors are. Take the last Druid harvest- virtually every reviewer is wowed by how overweight their orders were. They must have given away a small fortune in total 🤩😍
I believe you and Polly too.
I think polly even once declined a sample from myself aswell.
Point being, I don’t think Polly is making these points from a “I’m salty why didn’t I get freebies to sample” angle. 👍

I think you're right.
Tempers get flared sometimes when people get criticised, it's only natural human behaviour.
The weed looks great and as always I wish you every success buddy.
Personally, I don't agree with the free sample process, and I'll leave it at that. Your business, your choice.
Like I say, PP is a good Bigga and at this stage, I see them as a good friend so I had to chip in and offer a bit of backup. Not that he needs it 🤣
Much love buddy.
Cheers BB 😊👍🍻

I agree and spoke to a few new sellers regarding free samples.
From my point of view is you need reviews on your page not on the topics which as we all know can be like raiders of the lost ark warehouse.
You need page reviews and numbers on the board.
The gear will do the talking and the topics will be uncompressed by any views on the free issue. Which I said has nothing to do with I agree or disagree.
My point was on the basis of reviews

That’s true.
Thank you.
How would you go about this?
As I said I’ve tried spreading out samples before only to be ghosted when they receive the product, then met with excuses.
Doing cheap sample packs may be the way to go.
We almost sold 10 of those sample packs so hopefully anyone can chime in with their own review of each strain.

I remember when you launched you did 4g samples of 2g of each strain you had. I think I was one of the first to grab one as they were great value for
money. I think that sort of thing is perfect.
Whilst it doesn’t guarantee reviews, most biggas who get a deal like this will leave a review as that’s the main point of these sort of deals.

We're not reinventing the wheel buddy.
Offer cheap sample packs, anonymously then get the reviews as normal. It's a tried and tested method. I did it 1200+ days ago.
And I'm still raving👵🤣 (maybe not I'm old)

Where’s my free stuff mate!! 😂😂
And Polly, you can always send those offers to me and Daz 🤣
Didn’t mean to cause any offence to reviews, just want to know more about flavours etc.
Hopefully some of those small packs bring in some tasty write ups so we can all get the best for our preferences.
I await eagerly people!!!!

Now reading though the comments I get the impression you’re trying to justify it to yourself rather than the people commenting.
As you say if you never said anything no one would be any wiser but fair play as I said but that as you know comes with his own issues.
If you put it out there then I’m all for healthy debate but coming out swinging and defending GC.
GC has done nothing other venders do 🤷♂️ so have you made this into the main focus of it now and not the review.

The freebies for review is no drama for me and is the way the world works.
I whinged cos the primo uk buds have less details than the smalls, was looking for some depth on terps and inhale / exhales etc. 😂
Appreciate the extra effort that goes into proper write ups mate so totally understand, doing 7 or so in a weekend is a killer at times around life and wanting to chill 😂
1g samplers are good if priced ok too.
And I always say, it’s it a good one, someone will feel obliged to write it up I find on here.
See many first reviewers enlighten me on a tasty one before 🤜❤️

If Alleyne were to do a full write up of all 12 products, it would take 10 days to post them all individually (borgs would see it as spam)
Hence he has done 8 in one post of the high grade, the low grade SSH as one post, the medium grade wedding pie and amnesia haze as one post and the wedding cake Pop as one post.
I’m sure if you have any specific questions on the 8 high grade strains, Alleyne will more than happily respond.

I meant it’s a fair point in regards to it being better if more than one person reviewed it for a wider opinion on the products.
I do agree that some people seem a bit salty over this while sending samples for free in return for an honest review.
If I were to stop doing that, there would be next to nothing in terms of reviews and people wouldn’t know which products to go for based on their own personal preferences.
At the end of the day, who I send free smoke to is my business, if I want Alleyne to smoke for free for the rest of his life then that’s up to me.
I also don’t see any problem with sending samples for reviews - if it was a problem then the admins would have stepped in by now.
Another bonus to having one person review it all is that the experiment is “controlled” let’s say. They can compare to other products and people will start to get an idea on this persons expectations/standards when it comes to bud and scoring it.

The problem here for me is that I believe JediReview's got banned for doing the exact same thing.
If this is within LB guidelines then Jedi should be unbanned and if not Alleyne should be banned too.
Of course we will never get a straight forward answer from the LB team but all in all seems a little inconsistent.
It all comes down to how LB interpret the meaning of "Incentivized Post's".
Great review nonetheless, I do agree with Polly tho. Would've been better off posting them separately.

Nice reviews.
I think as long as you're honest about whether the bud was bought by you or sent specifically for a review then that's fair enough. People can make their own minds up, I appreciate the transparency.

As I said so do I -2 points lol 😂
Joking I could not give two fucks if it’s free or not. It would be far better to know what the basis of the review was marked rather than if it was free or not.

Hi Alleyne
I seen your review first thing this morning and I wish I had commented then before the handbags & gladrags
Without taking any of the comments into consideration and this being the first review that I have read from you. I have subsequently went back to look at the others.
I appreciate anyone who takes the time to review products.
Some of these points are general points but points that I have been talking to others about reviews in general.
When reading reviews it’s hard as you don’t know what the reviewer has set the bench mark as.
I tend to review by listing description bs product
I know others that do it differently.
I regards to the free gear for reviews debate. I have said this before in previous threads.
Fair play to anyone that get free weed and you have been honest about it.
as a reader I can now take that into consideration when reading your reviews.
One point that you made in your opening statement that I did pick up on was that you never did a review on something else that was sent because you did not want to write a negative review. Kind of defy the purpose.
By readers seeing both hood and bad reviews then they get a sense of your tastes and can then act or debate your review.
Now when I see a review from yourself I now know that without reading it. It’s going to have a positive outcome. It might have some negative comments but overall it’s going to be positive.

If I were to mention it was free which this time I did, no other review has been different on my page except then one from TGT, then people will complain. If I were to mention it was bought when it wasn't, people would complain. I've been accused of falsifying reviews prior to even mentioning freebies were sent. My point being is that people complain regardless. I simply mentioned it today to put it at rest in terms of people assuming all reviews are biased. Due to the backlash, I decided to not do the remaining reviews today and just wanted to ignore all messages. Ironically, one of those reviews was actually of a strain which I thought was mediocre. If I had listed that one first, then I guarantee things would have planned out differently. Now I don't even want to post it because again, people will assume I'm just now doing it for the sake of it.
Was I harsh to snap back earlier? Yes entirely, and I will apologise to polly personally. But at the end of the day, sometimes a debate isn't a bad thing. We all learnt a few things and hopefully can clear the air. I just know I shouldn't have started it the way I did.
In regards to the edibles. I will still stand by NOT doing the review. It is genuinely a tolerance issue. I have tried numerous different types of edibles over the years, purposely hunting for the strongest ones and they have never touched me. In my eyes, writing a review for a product that was never going to work to begin with doesn't deserve to have a bad first impression from me. GC purely sent them because he thought I'd be a good candidate and would have a lot to say IF they did work. I didn't guarantee they would work PRIOR to him sending. If I were to do a review I wouldn't even know what to say? I just don't justify doing a negative review on something that isn't actually negative. I gave them away in the end to friends and all of them felt some sort of effect however again, I would not be able to base a review on someone else's opinion, otherwise that's no different that just making a fake one.
In terms of previous reviews and the details written. I've done them like this the whole time. Any comments I've had have been positive and with no criticism (without mentioning names, many are literally here right now which is ironic), yet suddenly I've mentioned freebie and everyone's tone of voice has changed. You can understand why I feel a lot of people are contradictive. All my reviews have been written, in what I thought was sufficient detail. Apparently now this is not the case. If I were to do separate reviews on each and every strain, I'd again have people complain about the amount of reviews and referral links and potentially actually being shadow banned from LB anyway. So what do you guys actually want? This isn't an arsey question this is genuine. Because at the moment, it still feels like everyone is up in the air with what's actually pissing them off. If it's simply because of the fact that freebies are being sent and the review cannot be trusted then I would rather just not do them at all because what's the point. Like I've said multiple times, I genuinely do the reviews so people can get an insight before buying as me personally think the normal reviews are bold and all over the place. I like to have something to look at where someone's detailed everything from the smoke to how it grinds etc. This isn't the case, people don't do them. Once I started doing them for GC. I actually enjoyed it and did the one from TGT that I bought the previous month. No different from any other of my reviews. I don't have any other reviews from other vendors since because guess what, I actually buy from GC.
Was I harsh to snap back earlier? Yes entirely, and I will apologise to polly personally. But at the end of the day, sometimes a debate isn't a bad thing. We all learnt a few things and hopefully can clear the air. I just know I shouldn't have started it the way I did.
In regards to the edibles. I will still stand by NOT doing the review. It is genuinely a tolerance issue. I have tried numerous different types of edibles over the years, purposely hunting for the strongest ones and they have never touched me.

Lots of words there, i feel like you're trying to excuse yourself.
I'll keep my (albeit unimportant) position clear...
I don't trust reviews based upon free samples.
That's it. No need to argue about it. We all have our opinions. 😊
Cheers BB 😊👍🍻

I have no reason to make excuses over something that doesn't effect me. This also wasn't an argumentative comment, if you're allowed to have your opinion then I can also reply to them with my own opinion. It was also a reply to Dazzler so sorry you go caught up in it
Hi Alleyne,
Thanks for the response and appreciate it.
I think you did the right thing mentioning that this was a gift for you to review. As I said previously the reader can make their own mind up.
I feel that the review from the start was overshadowed by the fact that you felt the need to justify the manner you obtained the goods and not defend the reviews. Which is the whole point of the topic.
Goods for positive reviews are nothing new and does play a part in how readers perceive the review but that's the readers decision.
You are also right in the fact that you are never going to please everyone. What I will say is that too much time has been spent by yourself justifying the process of how you obtained it rather than defending the review that took the time an effort to post.
I don't agree with the statement that "people assume all reviews are biased" . I would say that 99% of the reviews are positive and I think that a big part of that is if you have nothing nice to say!
"Ironically, one of those reviews was actually of a strain which I thought was mediocre" If this is the case why was this not included in the original review? If you are trying to defend previous reviews and your reviews being un bias. I would have definitely made sure that this was included to prove your point.
You have said it yourself. I think your right the horse unfortunately has bolted on that defence.
Like others have said it's in our nature to defend anything we put out there. By doing so you have to deal with what comes next, good or bad. (nature of the beast) and this not just gear on LB.
Fair play for holding up your hands and reflecting on how you handled the situation.
I disagree with the following statements as this information and the other reviews give context

Just say that, it's the truth. By not saying it and mentioning that you just never did it, is reinforcing the bias argument. I i read that and you said the weed was strong than I can then judge if your 10 is a Dazzler 7 ect ect
Again just my opinion more time has been spent justifying how you got it rather than what the gear is like.

Because it’s on a different listing this is my point. People are quick to jump to conclusions without even fully understanding what’s going on. Even now I’m still confused about what people are actually annoyed about. Because people can personally message me and say one thing or comment on a review with open arms yet are completely contradicting themselves on this post. How can I not purely comment on the freebie fact when that’s what it seems people are only caring about. Soon as I comment on that people then do a switcharoo again and say it’s the review? It just seems a lot of people have an issue with saying what their actual problem with and instead rather tip toe around it. Just say it… which is why I appreciate your long replies as you are actually explaining why/how you feel the way you are. Other people are not doing this and just changing their opinion once someone mentions it. I made a small comment regarding it was free at the start of the post to put to bed everyone that has been asking for god knows how long as it was getting on my nerves. I have ignored/not replied to ANY comment since today. Of course I’m now going to start justifying it, as I’ve been ignoring it for weeks, yet now I’m actually mentioning it for my mental and to get people off my back about it and now it’s a case of that’s my only focus? *sigh*
In regards to review in general. I think it 99% of the reviews are positive (which they are going to be anyway as I’ve mentioned incentive many times) then topic reviews just shouldn’t be allowed at all in my opinion. If most people feel they are going to be a positive review purely because some sort of link through the vendor then the accuracy of ANY topic review if false right from the get go. If people genuinely have this mind set of not knowing if it was a free purchase or not, and with some mentioning that they will not trust any review that’s been sent as a freebie, then why do you even trust any of them at all, that doesn’t make any sense to me. If you were told that 90% of a restaurants 5 star reviews were due to all the reviewers knowing the owner, would you really trust all those 5 stars? Why is this so different here.
That’s fair enough, and I see your point but I personally still would not do that, that’s just me. I also did mention numerous times down to tolerance but I guess people still ignored that part and assumed I didn’t do it because they didn’t work… No, like I said, I have my reasonings for many things, and people are always quick to jump to assume shit. By that point it’s too late because their assumptions are at the forefront of their mind and anything prior to that is bs. It’s how humans will and always work. I also wouldn’t really say that’s how tolerance works. A 10 for me could be a 7 for you but another 7 for me could be a 10 for you. Tolerance is very specific and us both smoking the same strain can lead to very different opinions. I personally would take someone’s strength level as a pinch of salt but if I were to not mention it then people will just complain i’m not detailed enough anyway

You’ve really tied yourself in knots mate. Yet you still claim not to see what Biggas are annoyed about. Let me try and help-
Go back to my original comment at the top of the page which simply states that that is a “lot of free weed” (I’ve never seen anything like it). GC agrees it’s a fair point and in you come fists flying. Let’s look at some choice quotes:
“No other fucker has done one…”
“It’s clearly just saltiness”…
“If you don’t ask you don’t fucking get…”
“You are happy to sit here bitching…”
“You don’t like the fact that I am getting sent shit…”
“If you were offered you would say yes don’t bullshit yourself…”
“You clearly want to make it about you so let’s make it…”
“You again make a brain dead comment…”
“I’ve targeted you now so what now?…”
“Why bullshit yourself?…”
That level of immediate anger and aggression says you were wound up and raring to go. And the reason for that is that getting a dozen free samples in one go, displaying them on a table and trying to review them altogether is generally nuts, and perhaps you know it.
Like I said- does it matter in the scheme of things?- no, but for crying out loud try and approach it in little light hearted way. Try and remember that LB has a policy (also nuts) against ‘incentivised posts’ so don’t make it so bloody obvious.
Reviews can be good, bad, indifferent- but they should always be fun. It’s a fun subject!
There will always be a degree of scepticism about reviews of free product. If that hurts, don’t do them. Review the stuff you buy…
To sum up- the Druids sent me some samples of their early harvest. I was blown away, and said “do you want me to review them?”. They said “No, we want you to enjoy them”. Boom!😍😍

Thank you very much Alleyne for the reviews. After reading your reviews, which for me, I found informative and it told me exactly what I needed to know, I placed an order and GC advised accordingly too when I was placing the order.
So if the purpose of a review is to impart impartial advice and GC provides you with these samples (I don't care if he did, I am not naive, I know how to read Amazon reviews! 😊) and I read your reviews glean the information I think are most important for me, and after that I place an order with GC, I think we all have won and all the sales objectives have been met!! 😊
Another important thing to remember is we all have the right to disagree with a review or update a review or even write a review from scratch, after we have sampled the works of course! Works both ways! If I disagree with something, don't worry I will say it and move on!
Thank you for reading, my first time posting family but loving this site!
Time for a fat one I think. Have a great evening. Summer has finally started at last! Lol!

Thanks for reviewing , looking forward to my cheesecake pie and bubblegum sherbert. Hoping they're as good as the Cali shake which I'm still blazing daily.
Brilliant 👏 and thanks.
The cookies and cream. When you say, it was the strongest on the chest, you mean in a good way or..?
The cookies and cream. When you say, it was the strongest on the chest, you mean in a good way or..?
I guess it depends on your preference. I myself prefer to feel a hit when it's going down so for me personally, I preferred that stronger hit. Some people may not like the tickle it gives you and want a smoother inhale so it all comes down to preference.
Thanks again. Loving the sound of the Cheesecake Pie and Grapefruit Juice. Hopefully get to try them soon after the Cookies and Cream.
Those 2 were my favourite out the bunch. The Cheesecake was really nice to smell out the bag, made me not wanna smoke it. The Grapefruit was my all round favourite. So clean and the bright green look to it just made it look even more appealing. I prefer the fruity buds over cake like ones

Wedding Cake UK Pop Review!

Wedding Cake UK Pop Review!
This will be the only detailed review on all of these new strains. If I were to do detailed reviews on all the other listings, Little Biggy might shit itself😂
Packaging:
Just as good as usual. Fairly packed and after ordering so many times, I'm happy to say GC has the best packaging I've had from anyone on here.
Appeal:
Very small but dense popcorn nugs, as it says on the tin. You'll notice the shine from the buds and they are riddled with THC. Just from looking at the buds alone, you can tell it has that Wedding Cake look to them.
Smell:
If you were to order a big amount, I can imagine it will smell more like shake due to the sheer quantity and the fact it is taken from a shake batch. When ground however, you can really tell it's Wedding Cake. The smell goes right up your nose and that THC really comes alive.
Taste/Smoke:
Just like normal Wedding Cake. This is where the massive amount of THC hits you. Very strong when smoking it and you can definately feel the kick of it going down. Has that cake like texture to the smoke to add to the thickness and overall just feels very strong. Although I did think it was high in strength, it was very easy to just smoke it daily as the high was actually quite mellow. Definately put me down and made me want to relax but not enough to where I felt brain fuzzed.
Final Thoughts:
I actually really enjoyed this. If you've had the UK shake from GC then it will feel familiar to the buds you may have found in there however I'd say a bit better quality nugs and a lot stronger overall. I'd give this an 9/10!

Great review! I've got an Oz of this one it's way too and couldn't be more excited! This will be my first time trying Wedding Cake
Awesome review dude, and it sounds excellent. I also have an oz of this on the way. Is that enough though...?
Great review, thanks for taking the time. I've got some of this on the way and that review has whet my appetite.
Great review mate! Appreciate the effort you've made and yes,after wetting my appetite....Im gonna order some! Cheers! :)

I’m done with Royal Mail….

I’m done with Royal Mail….
Constant orders taking minimum 7 days to be delivered and even that’s asking a lot yet everyone else is confident they are receiving shit within 1-2 days… This isn’t just deliveries but with general post too, days without shit through the letter box. Can someone please confirm if they have the same issues because I’m genuinely losing my mind. It’s borderline still feeling like they are on strike for me because they don’t do shit. I’ve used LB for so long but RM is making me chose against it and I refuse to pay the ridiculous prices some of these vendors have for NDD just for it to still not be delivered. So many different people complain about NDD not actually being NDD yet vendors still put a $10+ price tag on it like it’s a good bargain….
guess it depends where you live, small areas less hectic so things are easier to run smoothly, populated areas like london are most likely still chaos from all the stikes/drama that's been going on.
If you have tracked, and its at your post office sometimes it can sit there for a few days as noone to deliver so you can just go pick it up done that a few times

royal mail do very well considering the shit they get one some one can't manage their meds well or order early. 10 is the cost of postage. special delivery - next day delivery. it does not mean it will be posted same day n land same day. Just as soon as it's been packed and out. It's very common on loads of online legit shops to. i bet if ppl stopped crying and msging. the vendors would be able to get it out faster.
I'm in Ireland man but I've one sitting in post office in UK since Monday but I believe they not sending abroad, I feel your pain hopefully ya get sorted soon 👍
Try getting it sent to your local sorting office my friend does that because the post for her is once a week if she’s lucky(not even that rural!) she never has issues with the sorting office just ask Royal Mail to redirect ur mail for you

Orange Kush Cali Mids Review

Alleyne
Orange Kush Cali Mids Review
Whatsup biggas! Thought I'd do a review on this one as I really enjoyed it at the time. It's been a month since I actually bought and smoked it and it's still one to remember. Not much people do reviews for TGT so I decided to do one and hopefully more people will try out their mids!
Check it out here:
https://littlebiggy.com/link/5QeQmm
Packaging/Delivery:
Packaging is always fine from TGT. Vendor sticks the external packaging to the box on the inside to ensure it doesn't come apart or at the very least, doesn't look war torn when delivered. My only issue with TGT is that for whatever reason a lot of packages I've ordered from them have gone missing. I'm unsure if this is maybe a distance thing from myself and TGT but I rarely have issues with other vendors yet I think most times I've ordered from here, I have to chase up. Hopefully others can confirm if it's just me or not...
Appeal:
What you would expect from mids. Has that fluffy denseness to it but not as firm as usual cali buds. This is usual from most mids. You can however tell it's orange kush as there were a lot of orange hairs and just had a tangy smell to it too.
Smell:
Tricky one to put across in words. If you've ordered mids off TGT before then you will probably know what I mean. It has a very distinctive smell however I wouldn't necessarily say it's pure orange, just more of a tange.
Taste:
From here it's good I promise. I think a common misconception with mids is that it's the same as normal cali except it's slightly weaker whereas this is usually not the case. Lows or mids are usually classed as this due to a poor grow. Either the crop just failed or smaller issues like lighting caused it to grow insufficiently. This being said, it still tastes as it should. Now you really taste the orange terps and get that thickness from the kush too. The taste of this weed is what made me love it so much. You can defo tell it's just gone wrong somewhere down the line in the growing process, because smoking it is very similar to the proper thing.
Smoke:
Stronger than I was anticipating however kush can sometimes have that surprising affect on you, especially when you haven't had it in a while. Smokes very clean and again, that orange goodness is just so sweet (no not sour). The taste however is quite strong so if you're not a fan of fruity bud, then it may not be for you. In terms of how it grinds, actually really nice. A lot of mids tend to grind out quite poorly due to the nugs. I suspected this to be the same however it actually ground out to what I would expect. There's nothing worse than putting in loads of big nugs in your grinder and you barely get a joint, this is not the case.
Final Thoughts:
I've had a few mids from TGT now, and this was by far my favourite. Unfortunately, due to most of my orders getting lost, I can't quite appreciate them the same way when they eventually arrive. If we factor in the price with what you are getting, then this is perfect. It's just very hard for me to keep coming back and using consistently when I can't guarantee it's even going to arrive. It's the only thing that let's TGT down. Everything else is spot on. If you are intrigued but worried about the delivery, don't worry TGT is very good with comms, it's not a case of needing to dispute if it does come to it. My case also does not rest for everyone else too, I could be one of the unlucky ones. It would be good to know how your delivery goes with TGT too. I would also recommend just checking out TGT in general, probably the most stocked vendor on here and is always switching up and changing stock. It's impossible to get bored with them. I will be having a hash review coming for them in the future!
Any questions feel free to ask them below!

You can defo tell it's just gone wrong somewhere down the line in the growing process, because smoking it is very similar to the proper thing.
Smoke:
Stronger than I was anticipating however kush can sometimes have that surprising affect on you, especially when you haven't had it in a while. Smokes very clean and again, that orange goodness is just so sweet (no not sour). The taste however is quite strong so if you're not a fan of fruity bud, then it may not be for you. In terms of how it grinds, actually really nice. A lot of mids tend to grind out quite poorly due to the nugs. I suspected this to be the same however it actually ground out to what I would expect. There's nothing worse than putting in loads of big nugs in your grinder and you barely get a joint, this is not the case.
Final Thoughts:
I've had a few mids from TGT now, and this was by far my favourite. Unfortunately, due to most of my orders getting lost, I can't quite appreciate them the same way when they eventually arrive. If we factor in the price with what you are getting, then this is perfect. It's just very hard for me to keep coming back and using consistently when I can't guarantee it's even going to arrive. It's the only thing that let's TGT down. Everything else is spot on. If you are intrigued but worried about the delivery, don't worry TGT is very good with comms, it's not a case of needing to dispute if it does come to it. My case also does not rest for everyone else too, I could be one of the unlucky ones. It would be good to know how your delivery goes with TGT too. I would also recommend just checking out TGT in general, probably the most stocked vendor on here and is always switching up and changing stock. It's impossible to get bored with them. I will be having a hash review coming for them in the future!
Any questions feel free to ask them below!
Agreed, their stealth is some of the best on LB. Hopefully it's not a light-fingered postie that is responsible.
Another nice review Alleyne.

Thai Sensimilla Weed Review!

Thai Sensimilla Weed Review!
So I thought I'd do a review on this as I feel most people are just as confused as me in terms of Thai weed in general and hopefully it can give people a better understanding and opt people into trying this out.
Find it here:
https://littlebiggy.com/link/pdhC3x
Packaging:
Just as good as usual. The box itself was open when arrived however due to the vac sealing, there was no leakage in smell. Package seemed like it's been through rough times so it's more of a RM issue. Tracking also told me it sat in a mail office for a day too, further confirming a RM issue.
Appeal:
This will really depend on what your preference is. The picture however does most of the explaining. Has a very "blocky" look to it and a decent amount of stems however also a lot of colour which will bring me onto the taste and smell later.
Smell:
Honestly, smells very similar to shake. I seen someone reviewed it stating "woody and fruity" and although it sounded weird when I read it, they are also spot on. Very wood like smell however there's a hint of mixed berries in there too. I would say at first sniff, you probably won't like it but it will grow on you.
Taste:
I was not expecting this. The fruitiness really shines when you are smoking. I won't continue to talk about ash colour in these reviews anymore as I don't like it myself however for the last time, not pure white but also not dark either. The fruitiness this gives though reminds me of a pine like taste. Almost like a mellow diesel and in comparison to the appeal and smell, the taste really does surprise you.
Smoke:
Super clean considering. It may not look clean at first glance but smoking it really does feel so. It surprised me with the amount of THC when breaking it apart to grind, can feel it on your fingertips. The yield you get from grinding it due to the texture is also really nice, so much to the fact that I may convert to smoking this over the shake as I feel I can double the length on how long an ounce would last.
Final Thoughts:
I was always very confused on why Thai is so popular. It always looked a bit weird, smelt odd and didn't exactly seem strong. Whilst although some of it may be true, I now understand that if you are on a budget and still want to feel like you are smoking actual "weed" rather than shake then it's a perfect alternative. I've been buying shake for a very long time now off multiple different vendors, after a while it gets quite boring. You forget what proper weed feels like, you forget how proper weed grinds and the THC level, I would say Thai is the closest you can get to having those exact same properties, but still keeping to a budget.
Feel free to ask me any questions below!!

Thanks for taking the time to write this up. For a while Thai was all I could get so I have smoked more than my fair share.
I always found it to be quite a mellow smoke, perfect for the daytime. What sort of buzz does this give, is it more indica or sativa?

Honestly I'd say it's a pretty even mix but defo a indica dominant. Very dependant on time of day. First one of the day uplifted me and made me want to do stuff. One in the afternoon was completely the opposite😂😂
I’m was the same as you and loved the buzz of it.
Summer linger stone (You know what I mean 💨)
Last question? I’m assuming that this was unseeded? As I would expect. Not like string ? Sorry if it’s a stupid question 🙋♂️

Yes it was unseeded. Not the typical string thai weed, I haven’t tried that type of thai either
Thanks for that.
I used to love Thai back in the day. A nice break from all the heavy stuff back in the day.
Will be taking a look now

Cheers for that man. Was asking about it on another thread.
So as it should 👌 and others have said similar.
Did you smoke or vape it?

Vacuum packing - does it change bud quality?
Is this a me thing? I've had a couple of vendors tightly vacuum pack buds. I fully get the need for stealth and have been impressed by the variety of solutions to this. Probably best not to discuss that too deeply online I guess.
It seems to me that the buds don't quite recover until they've had a day in a small jar. Like, straight out the vacuum pack there's much less smell & flavour than develops over the next day or so. Like it's been suffocated and can breathe again.
Is it a known thing? Or like many things, just in my mind?

Its a bit of a shame and not really necessary but as you say the buds will bounce back quick and I don't think it harms them. Getting them straight into glass (preferably UV) quickly is important. I do like Bovedas packs for longer term storage, I even have some with humidity indicators lol!
I guessed it was most cost efficient stealth from a budget vendor and completely forgivable, as you say, the buds do recover. I'm just glad I'm not imagining it!
Yes, I've always been opposed to over sealing, whether it's shake or buds. Sealing it more will not make it smell any less. Certain vendors will also use a much cheaper plastic meaning it can stick to the bud too.
If you have good overall packaging, there's no need to strain the pack and if it really came to it, just seal one pack over another.

I guess cheaper vendors can't blow huge numbers on packing but need to meet a stealth requirement. I got a bit yesterday that was disappointing. Today it's fine. Certain vendors do it exceptionally well and everything arrives perfect and ready to roll. I guess it's all cost & speed. But at least other people agree so it's not me imagining it.
I think it doesn't change anything. It preserves it better tho. Think of all your food products that are vacuum sealed.
Buds exposed to air are constantly degrading slowly. Same as if you left some clear distillate opened exposed to air/oxigen it will turn dark yellow and brown eventually. Same will happen to buds even if they are in a jar. The thc oxidises, degrades and loses most of its terpenes.
Vacuming buds just ensures safe delivery and fresh product.
It is absolutely necessary for safety.
I prefer to be safe than sorry.

I've never needed to from one of your bits but thanks for the top tip. The only bit I've had from you where the packaging could have been better was a bit of hash that was so sticky it stuck to the bag so I had to cut it out. No harm done and seconds to rectify. But it'd have been happier in greaseproof paper. You guys are generally spot on with your packing & your whole service. I'll be back for more of that hash after payday.
Thank you for the feedback.
We have never vac sealed any of our products as we are able to achieve sublime stealth with other methods.
The greaseproof paper on the sticky hash is a recommendation we will be putting into place :)

I'd guess that particular hash sweats in plastic while in the post. It's a very minor gripe and quite likely not seen at your end. It might have been exposed to heat in the post for example. Your service has been amazing on repeat. Thanks TGT.
I used to get 4oz of weed in flat packs from canada. And when I say flat packs... they were FLAT.
I only ordered a few of them, I used to smoke the weed too quickly as it was very compressed, you'd end up putting 1-2g in a joint without realising.
I don't think a tight vacuum seal will ruin the quality, but it may make you use more than you would normally.

Vendor closed up
So i recently bought some smoke off a vendor who's now closed up shop/not visible on site. Thought the stuff i recieved was okay, admittedly stupidly reviewed, but should have waited to do that as upon closer inspection there was a few okay buds but the rest is dead. I mean 5 bowls and im sober as a judge dead. Wont name the vendor just wondering if i have any options other than take the loss? Any help appreciated ✌
This particular reason is why I actually don't make my reviews until I have finished the product. A lot of the times you can misjudge an order or perceive it as better than it actually is. At least if I post the review at the end, I can give a valid review that covers all areas rather than just the initial smoke
Never been in the situation. You’ve just admitted you’ve received it and by the sounds of it reviewed it favourably. If you are trying to get your money back I guess you can dispute still, not sure, how long is it since orde was raised. Not sure how that will go given vendor is supposedly not here anymore and with a positive review confirming you received. Seems a bit opportunistic to me and might reflect badly. But it’s your choice.
Honestly thats fair, i can see where you're coming from and i appreciate the perspective! Honestly i kinda figured itd be a loss, which just reinforces the lesson check what you've bought properly before thinking its all good! Going to be more vigilant in the future thats for sure 😅
Yeah I been there where I’m just happy to get my supply and I score it a 10, when maybe it’s not quite there. I also want to support the good vendors. Only time I’ve ever disputed was when I didn’t get my order at all. But like I said it’s just my opinion
Haha thats pretty much exactly how it went 🤦🏼♂️ if im being honest it was the ditching comms then seemingly backing out of the site completely had me wondering if id been fully ripped off. Eh, we live and learn! Id rather not have a dispute on my account so will leave it. Thanks for the replies without judgement, appreciate you 🙏

next day delivery myth
More or less depends on when you live in other words your local RM. I've never paid for NDD and always get it next day with most vendors.
next day delivery myth
Anyone know why I'm constantly waiting a week when I pay for next day delivery? It's not only Pistach, its other vendors too. How can I get NDD that turns up within a few days instead of ages?
‘Need For Speed’ causes virtually all the problems on here. Order a few more days before you need it, save your NDD money, and relax☺️
More or less depends on when you live in other words your local RM. I've never paid for NDD and always get it next day with most vendors.
I had this issue with Pistach a while back but to be fair to him my last 3 orders with him and NDD have landed next day but I live only 60 miles away from a main depot so generally most of my post is quite quick. I would question it as last year I had this issue and it turned out they wernt sent out though marked as sent
It 100% depends on where you live, Most sellers do send next day (before 2pm cut off) however Royal Mail quite often has backlogs in their system so you don't actually get your order until days after!
As with all our national services our postal service is also a shitshow!

Skins
Elements to the end!!!
Skins
I like having a wee selection on hand. Suppose I treat them a bit like Pokemon cards (at the risk of sounding like a total nerd). I have more than what’s in the photo like, just what I keep in my wee box. Bought those Tyson Futerola ones because I’m a sucker for a gimmick, especially Tyson related. But they’re actually really good.
Is anyone the same? What’s your favourite?
Is anyone the same? What’s your favourite?
You know over here our regular skins, those the most popular in shops, is the green rizzla.
Thick nasty monstrosities.
Over in Spain their regular skins are the ultra fine ones, OCB is one of their regular brands in shops.
For me i like the rizzla silver, not the long ones either just the little single skinners.
Perfect in every way.😁

Fucking greens man 😂
Not only thick as fuck but missing the corners 😤
I’ve usually got some raws, black ocb, silver rizla and some dodgy blues when out and cba to go 3 mins up the road 😂

That's interesting that one bb actually. You can make some little rockets with them tbh
I remember I only had 30p at times back in the day and bought my self a pack of these now and then if you want to make base with them you can do. Some people just don't like the effort but all comes with art of rolling aye 👍

Where is over here, bro? If you don’t mind sharing like. I know folk in Spain sometimes like to use cigarette filters and shit.
Blazin_ those ocb slim fit look good ones not seen that pack of them might have to hunt for some 👀
My favorite skins;
1) Elements
2) Raw Black Organic Hemp
3) Raw Black
4) Rizzla Micron
The worst skins I have tried;
1) Supermarket Receipt 😂
2) White ZigZag's 🤮
3) Rizzla Red's 🤢
4) Rizzla Liquorice 🤒
Raw are bringing out 'Raw Ethereal' which are supposedly the thinnest skins they have released, worth a try when they become available.

Haha when you had only 60p and had to get a green or a red pack. Then thought! It's gona get me fuckin high anyway today. Who gives a shit today fuck it! Them new ethers sounds good to try the thinnest they are bringing out. Amazon people 1 day if you got prime. Briliant for multipacks on All you have mentioned
Your receipt joint reminded me of my bible page joint.
They had a cheap one on a hotel and I was desperate, found page with minimal ink and it smoked alright 😂

I remember when I first started smoking (good 15+ years ago) me and my mates would take the piss out of the older lads for using silvers , it would take me a few years to realise we were the clowns with our blue rizla bedsheets. Thank the lord for raws and elements , although I think ocb black are up there , just harder for me to find locally
For me my go to’s now are elements, raw black, normal raws, and more recently i tried my friends rizla precision that was pretty good, like really good actually.
Also used brown and black ocb’s for like a year straight but then just went off them, for no actual reason i just kinda stopped using them for other papers and never went back.
And ofc silver rizla deserves a big shout out, always got a special place in my heart. Even though i don’t really use them too often anymore, got lots of memories attached to rolling with silvers

King Palm pre-rolled cones look good. Will be trying s9me soon. Real leaf and supposedly a slow burn.
I personally smoke blazy Susan's, 50 in a pack all natural papers (vegan too apparently) I replaced RAWS with these because there is no way a pack of RAWS has 32 rizla in!
Also partial to a rizla precision

Has anyone else noticed how many anti-depressants make it harder to get high on weed? Dose anyone know how and/or why?
Personally, my SSRIs never caused any issues with weed, only psychedelics. Here's a useful chart
Just like weed itself, any drug affects people differently. Anti-depressants are no different. I always have the opinion of them being useless as all they do is numb what you are feeling rather than "getting rid" I guess is the best way of saying it. I was noticing myself feeling empty, not feeling sad nor happy, just nothing. I'd rather be miserable than that however in your instance it could help you a lot more than it does with me. I'd always say to only take them when you really feel it's needed. Don't try and stay on them for as long as you can and treat it like an "alternative" because you'll start having problems elsewhere before you know it.
I can corroborate this though as pointed out every body is different. For me, getting high took less effort after I stopped taking them but comes with its own set of drawbacks. You should speak to your doctor if they're not working for you as they might be able to switch you to something else. Weed is good at treating the symptoms but not the underlying cause.
Weed certain doesn’t have your mrs thinking you’ve gone off her/cheating on her because your sex drive totally disappears. Guaranteed every time. I asked a Dr and was told I would not find one that doesn’t affect labido.
I’ve seen someone that didn’t have their meds like that for a day and half—NOT PRETTY ATALL.
Good luck.

Redeyejedi25 puts it brilliantly.
Such pharmaceuticals fuck with the neurotransmitters and receptors in the brain, often blocking them, leading to hypersensitivity when you stop, which can cause a whole host of terrible problems.
Please see this audiobook 'Niacin: the real story' on Amazon:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Niacin-Story-Wonderful-Healing-Properties/dp/1591202752
It details how Niacin has been used in orthomolecular medicine in treating mental health issues with nothing short of astonishing results.
And if of interest, see this study on the protective qualities of Manganese bisgylcinate during cessation of certain pharmaceuticals, published in the journal of orthomolecular medicine.
https://isom.ca/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/JOM_1976_05_1_02_Manganese_and_Niacin_in_the_Treatment_of_Drug-.pdf
Both of these are naturally occurring nutritional substances that the body already uses and collects via food.

Ssri's inhibit the reuptake of serotonin, Cannabis also interfaces with serotonin in some ways so the ssri could be blocking the serotonin being affected by cannabis.
Maoi's interrupt neurotransmitters which would also alter or inhibit the effects cannabis has on neurotransmitters.
Most if not all antidepressants interact with serotonin, dopamine or other neurotransmitters and hormones effected by cannabinoids and terpenes.
For most depression cases I think choosing either antidepressants or cannabis is most effective as using both can leave a lot of people in a limbo state. There are lots of effective ways to manage your dopamine/serotonin that don't involve medicine, and a lot of them are great to combine with weed.
I manage my depression through dopamine detoxes, natural supplements, meditation and other techniques so that I can smoke weed without antidepressants and it works pretty well for me.

Sorry Hobbit - its not been an issue for my wife.
We've been daily users of hash for 35 years and my wife has been medicated for 20 of these years, but has no issue getting high at all weather smoking vaping or edibles.
Her medication has changed a few times over the years but there been no effect on her high regardless of which med shes been on.
Really sorry to hear your meds effect you like this, and I'm only sharing my experiences to let you know its not a definite effect for everyone.
I do hope you find the med/ gear combination that will work for you - take care.

Really sorry to hear your meds effect you like this, and I'm only sharing my experiences to let you know its not a definite effect for everyone.
I do hope you find the med/ gear combination that will work for you - take care.
SSRI.....the acceptable way to cull the population?? ...eugenics ?? kinda easy to make people with issues to take a pill that basically makes them sterile....hey who the fuck wants more fucked up people being born right?? sorry i am a little wasted
Its just like if you take amphetamines you cant get stoned like you want to no matter how much you smoke.
Sure they are anit-depressants and not anit-psychotics prescribed as anit-depressants?
Give me some names.
Give me some names.
I take an MAOI antidepessant called Nardil, mood stabilizer Lamictal, Ativan, and a small dose of Vraylar.
No impact on getting high from hashish or flower. Impacts the high of psilocybin mushrooms, requiring larger dose.
Try to stay the hell away from Nardil or any MAOI med. Way too many drug and food interactions, even though it is an effective antidepressant. But so is psilocybin combined with psychedelic therapy.

Sometimes i think they prescribe stuff like Nardil and Lamictal just to keep you addicted.
My brother is bi polar and for years they were prescribing him all sorts of crap until one day he broke down in front of me about what he was taking, i told him all about the evil drugs he was taking well he stopped taking them and is now clean and healthier than he has been in decades and most importantly he is no longer suicidal.

How long have you been on Nardil? most docs stopped prescribing MAOI's in the 1980's or are you in the US?
Indicas can exacerbate depression, as can sativas in certain circumstances. Advice like that should be avoided. Everyone is different and each strain can have a different effect on a different person. Consumption method is also relevant. Don't believe anything anyone tells you (including me), except for a qualified medical professional with experience in using THC for treating depression.
true this but that pro would still not be able to predict the effects of cannabis for a particular patient. small trial and error with safe substances seems a much better bet especially when you consider the corruptions inherent to medical systems all over the world.
doctors are like naive kids parented by the insurance companies or state medical systems. they wind up imitating their parents.
My doctor told me that the mushrooms and THC would help my depression and to crack on. I wonder what his parents were like!
If you want to use any cannabis as an antidepressant you have to combine it with other techniques to manage your mental health, weed alone can't manage it for a lot of people.
Agreed. I combine with a healthy diet, cardio, weight lifting, and hill walking. I'll still a miserable bastard, but enjoying life more!
Id be on the sofa all day if I was on Indica all day. If I could afford all the bud necessary I would. The sativa or highbrid mixes suit me best. The more uplifting cerebral high is unparalleled for anxiety disorders
Dunno about you But here the British NHS prescribe stupid amounts of them in a variety of types for multiple multiple issues.
If you mean on here, I'v not seen any.

Just a matter of time before cannabis becomes a government racket too, hang in there cowboy.
I have a low immune system and quite often get a cold, headache etc for just a day and if I smoke then I very rarely get stoned.
A few times in the best ive smoked weed just after taking sleeping tablets and it tripped me out and haven't gone to sleep for ages.

Think about fermented foods for the low immune system. Kefir, probiotic yoghurts, and stuff like kimchi or sauerkraut. A healthy microbiome will heavily increase your immune powers!

With how high the demand is and with a certain vendor now gone, selling is honestly your best option. Most people just want cheap and there's nothing cheaper than shake. Even if people aren't smoking it they can use it for edibles or oil. If the shake is good and stored well then people will come back. The stored well part is extremely important when it comes to shake.

Just about to place an order (26/12) after having a smoke free Xmas due to high mining fees. Anybody out there know if they've come down & the congestion cleared? Any vendors closed during the post Christmas pre NY hol? Ordering has become a real stresser this past few months. Thanks!
i was suprisingly impressed with revolut's bitcoin transaction fees. only worked out to be about 12-13 quid.
😳…how times have changed- this time last year we would have been screaming at the injustice of a fee like that, now it’s a result!🥹

That's music to my ears because the last 30 days have been a joke regarding BTC network fees and there seems to be no sign of a let up
What are you using to be able to select the timing? Anyone that has the option should just be using the flexible option and not worrying about it... Not everyone has the option
Not currently mate. It's pay the maximum or it won't get through at the moment. It was over 300 sat/vB for entry to the block just before confirmation yesterday (19/11), and if you weren't paying the maximum then that 1 hour quickly turns into 24 hours or more as people pay higher and higher fees, and the 24 hour one never gets confirmed.
I got quite lucky. Tbh I find fees change really randomly. $70 could be $20 fee and $71.50 is a $5. Worth a play anyway.
It's risky, I've seen multiple cases when the 0 fee flexible payment still hasn't cleared after 8 weeks.. you probably might start worrying then! Besides vendors have cut off times etc & with my THC appetite I can just about wait 24hrs for NDD as it is 😂
I have access to SafePal & Bitvavo (registered outside UK). Otherwise I use Coinbase with my regular uk bank.

Sounds good, yes the fees on BTC can be a sting when u add it up overtime. Definitely something I would support 🤜 good work lads
Sooner the better, Christmas is a complete write off because the prohibitive fees,

so when might b an expected arrival of this payment option ... are we talking weeks, months even years ?

White Ash? Legit or Myth
I was wondering what everyone’s interpretation is of the old white ash.
Proper flush, organic, perfectly cured, better quality?
My understanding was that it meant that the plant had had a proper flush and had flushed salts and nutrients out. But having smoked organically grown, two week flushed flower in a pipe and seen the dark ash I felt that perhaps there is more myth to this. ( Especially if you research into studies on flushing ).
After doing a bit of reading on the old white ash, it seems like the only consistent idea is that white ash is a sign of efficient combustion.
So wetter bud might ash grey/black but so too can very resinous bud. Pipes tend to produce darker ash as do tighter joints.
I’ve noticed on Little Biggy that people often see white ash as a quality indicator. How much of this is gospel truth or perhaps old wives tales?
Thoughts n Feelings ma Little Biggaz?

Myth because of a comment I read from BB. A while back.
Before LB and in general I didn’t take much notice as it was what it was. Not like here when you can share thoughts. Not just moan to your mate lol
Another positive of this place.
If it’s nasty it’s nasty 🤮
The comment that I read. (Hope this was ok BB)
Personally i think it's complete nonsense. White ash can be nasty and black ash can be great, it's completely strain dependant.
More importantly, it's a question of combustion. You can get any plant matter to burn white if you get it hot enough....hence "white hot". It's simply a case of using a higher temperate flame and bingo, what was black is now white.
If you're smoking a spliff and it's got black ash you've got two potential reasons;
1) the weed is wet, i.e it hasn't been dried properly and likely not been cured at all = dog shit
2) the weed sticky because it's full of trichomes and burns slow, appearing to be black because it hasn't completely combusted = good shit
Take No.2 and put one of those windproof lighters on it, (the ones that look like a bunson burner) and bingo....white ash.
If i had a pound for every time i've had to bite my lip with people talking about black ash and flushing i'd have about....well.... £45, but seriously, I grow in hydro, where arguably you don't even need to flush and i still do with RO water for 10 days, then dry for at least 2 weeks and cure for at least 8, and sometimes, yes, there are still certain phenos that will produce black ash.
The assumption that anything that burns close to black is somehow bad 'un-flushed' weed is a complete myth. There's bad weed that smokes white and good weed that smokes black (and vice versa), and the grey area in between.

Not to nitpick, but "white hot" comes from the colour of a substance when you heat it, just as "red hot" does - you'll notice as you heat a substance (particularly metals) it'll start to glow with heat, first red, then peaking at white before it melts or evaporates. "White hot" or "red hot" have nothing at all to do with the colour of the ash left after you burn something.
Mostly myth for me though there is the BLACK CRISPY AS FUCK ASH.
That is rare and usually of my street plug but always been nasty ole shite 😂

I was going to post the same thing. Crispy and hard ash is what you want to avoid. Haven't come across any on LB yet thankfully.
I fully agree with everything said above and i’d just be repeating what others have said already.
I think it’s a big myth and is fully dependent on strain, moisture content, and heat. I’ve had both white ash that was terrible and was just burning white because it was hot enough to, and i’ve had grey and black ash (not crispy black ash as that in my experience has always been horrible) that has been amazing, i think it’s just a big myth that people know use as a gold standard for quality of bud but i think it’s bullshit tbh but each to their own 😊

Its a myth man, all comes down to the fineness of the grind and moisture content of the bud.
Take a joint from your stash and let it go bone dry and compare it to a joint of the same weed that still has a bit of spring to it when you squeese it. The dry one will be white ash.

You also have to factor in that tobacco will naturally burn white too, so depending on how much you use in your spliff will depend on how consistently you see white ash on top of every other reason as to why it can happen. Dazzler easily has the best explanation.
Ash colour can be an indicator of quality, but it's not the only one, and black ash doesn't make a product instantly shit.
Quality in the world of illegal drugs is very much subjective and trying to make objective statements about subjective things is one of humanities greatest wastes of time.

This has been on my mind since I bought some of Real D’s, shake. I blitzed the shake in my coffee bean grinder and mixed it with some bud. White ash every time and a clean burn all the way down to the roach.
I assumed it was the bud, but when I ran out, I resorted to Real D’s, shake and it burned exactly the same, clear white ash and no interruptions during the smoke.
This got me thinking. Was it the shake or the grind? What I discovered was a combination of two things, grind and dryness, but hey, I could be wrong.
On the flip side, I’ve had some uk Cali fire (yes I’m being sarcastic) and burnt quite poorly. A day out on the tray and coffee bean grinder blitz later and hey presto, white ash.

Weed is definitely better when it had been flushed/white ash.
Roll up a big fat pure joint 👌
If your ash is black that is all the leftover nutrients left over in your plant. This will result in an unpleasant smoke.

But there is no evidence that white ash is due to flushing. I have smoked organically grown, 3 weeks flushed pure and had grey ash. White ash just means there’s has been an efficient burn. Very resinous bud can cause dark ash.
Absolutely insane how people are saying white/black ash doesn't matter. I bet those that are saying this add tobacco into their joints.
A joint by definition is made up of 2 or more things so I'm pretty sure joints are meant to be a mix.
Probably blunt or doobie. I maybe wrong. It would just make sense that a joint is made from 2 things :)

Trouble with coinjar
Hey Biggas. I’ve used coinjar since finding little biggy a few years back and have never had any issues. I haven’t used LB for a few months and now I need to stick up I’m having issues. What I want to buy cost £34 and I have £55 if bitcoin in my account. Every time I try to send it I get a message saying insufficient funds due to network fees but they’ve never been anything like £20 before. I’ve messaged coinjar, but can anyone shed any light?
Network fees same everywhere mate taking peoples eyes out cheaper to go to your local atm unfortunately 🙁

best ways to partake broke?
The shake situation generally depends on the person. I myself don't get the effects from weed anymore as my tolerance is so high and I'm also not work…
Everyone's an expert, so here's two pennies' worth: buy the best quality you can afford and enjoy it until it runs out. When you can afford to buy again, buy again. This strategy is invariably better than endless shake or cheap commercial hash.
Seriously, hyper-economising ruins the fun. It doesn't make sense to spend half your high trying to mop up every crumb from your grinder, or in coughing fits because you absolutely must capture every last molecule of smoke out of your piece. As for drinking bong water...strep, black mildew, E.coli, proteus - to name a few.

The shake situation generally depends on the person. I myself don't get the effects from weed anymore as my tolerance is so high and I'm also not working atm. Shake is good for the fact it's still cheaper than buying a cheap oz of buds and will last longer. Not everyone smokes for the buzz my man
Best practice is no waste. Smoke burning into the air is throwing away cannabis. Stems and sticks are not for the smoking but they can all be cooked in edibles.
True this, I have an old hippie friend that would smoke joints backwards only sipping on the smoke from the burning end.
Grind your cannabis! This brings out the good parts and nearly doubles the potency of your stash!
Or "surface area" which most people learn at 14 in school with basic chemistry reactions.
You only want to grind it just before smoking though because a bigger mass (bigger buds) will store longer for the same reason. Less exposure.
I go through the smallest bit first for that reason.

I agree with this. I used to smoke hash years ago and it blew my mind when introduced to weed. Aw, memories
Used to be my favourite way of smoking hash, no wastage and a good strong stoning. Now I just use a dynavap haha
Decent vape plus shake and hash as they are the best bang for buck imo.
Hash is high quality and cheap right now so offers more thc than most buds

This is my philosophy right now, i keep two types of shake, two types of hash and two carts, all from LB referrals. It is possible to have a completely free rotation, long live LB.
Shotties mate
9mm copper piping, coke bottle with water, small bit of fag cut off with blade and stamp in hash. High as fuck

smoke pure always. Get a bong and work out exactly how much you can smoke up and hold for time. Pull til the smoke nearly touches your lips, cover with your hand and take a full breath of air. Big exhale then rip the smoke up and hold in til the world seems better...
Served me well as a struggling stoner in the early years. Vapes also really good option, bit more high tech and different high than smoking though.
Hash prob better value than flower, though can get a decent high off of shake/bottom buds which you might find cheaper on here.
Peace

Haha once saw my little sister who was off her face at the time pick up a shorty bottle ( was no where near clean lol like the black ones ) and drink half the water
Back in the 90s a dude i knew hit the bong full of poppers and a tobacco/soap bar (crap hash) mix. Ripped it clean before he went green...
Get a magic flight launch box with a power adapter and batteries then learn how to use it well. No other way can make herbs last as long as this little baby. ( my first vape). You can also smoke eat or make butter with your leftovers its a win win situation. Bit for a J can last for hours in this little baby. The high builds gradually but can get you totaly baked if you so wish.
Definitely shake ! We have a lot of regular customers for shake because it’s the best bang for your buck ! Super cheap yet still super high grade and enough to get you going for a while 🥰
Strainsburies have you been hackd ontg I had made and paid for an order 2z shake last month and still haven't received anything, but only been strung along by a few messages since, it's medi Cater if you could please reply to me there thanks.
I used to smoke a quarter of weed a week and that would cost me £60-70. For the last eight years I’ve been vaping concentrates instead and a gram of that is roughly £40-50. So I’ve literally been saving £20-30 per week and I’m sure my lungs are better for it.
a good bong and don't kain your weed also T-breaks are a must . and sometimes a spliff is better (Unless you wanna get proper munted ( just don't go over board and remeber the T-breaks)
In all fainess I purchase some quality shake/trim & popcorn buds. Get plenty of bang for your buck and there's some tasty looking stuff on a few vendors pages. I got 7g last week and there was plenty of buds in it
use eagle bill shake and vape pipe it is a normal glass vape pipe use the opening as a bowl and when you run out it's collected so much THC rich oil on the glass forms VERY strong stuff you can heat as it's glass made to be heated from the glass bubble to the stem or using a little water to soften in up you can use paper clips straitened with a loop on the end to strip the pipe literally clean and gather the now thick dark/black deposit out and a gram of that lasts ages.
It's harsh to smoke but stronger than premium dutch hash type stuff. Also if you're in any country with a cannabis cafe many people take the rubbish bags from cannabis cafes in Holland where they often separate food from waste joints, this may also apply to some US dispensaries although i don't know if that's legal.
This is legal in the Netherlands and many people in them smoke pure weed joints and even then leave a lot unsmoked...but for the love of god DO NOT DRINK BONG WATER
THC has extremely low solubility in water and secondly bong water should be fresh with every use if your bong water has gotten to the point that it has THC in it then it's been there for weeks and is literally just stagnant water that has collected all the cyanide and other things present in smoke and cultured an amount of bacteria likely many times dirtier than your toilet

I have 2 really unappealing words to say so hear me out, don't judge. The 2 words are bong water. Do not drink of course, not directly. As part of a smoothie, yes. Shit works great and it's more than free its fucking recycling.
Careful, bong water liquid can quikly provide a potentially sickening "smoothie" as bacteria from various contaminents (few people are known to fadtidiously scrub the inside of the bong cylinder, even fewer are known for changing the water on a per-use basis. Also, i'm not so sure the solids you would be consuming are that pschoactive - thc is not soluble in H2O to my knowledge.

What Bitcoin app are we all using?
Hey Biggas,
when i first started using LB i settled on Coinbase as my app of choice as i liked the ease of use, straight from your bank > to app > to LB, easy.
The problem is that for the 3rd time now im going without my meds because of Coinbase, there's a weekly limit of 300 sheets and also a daily limit, that with the high rates now makes me think there must be a better option as I wont get anything in now till Thursday and I needed it to drop tomorrow so was wondering if you can help out gang?
Any advice will be appreciated, cant keep going without.
thanks in advance

Paybis is one of the most straightforward ways to pay on LB. Can pay direct to LB wallet address from any deposit method. Fees are waived for your first transaction also and customer support is very good and responsive.
ive used it for 3 years now no problems at all, set up your btc direct account then it links to your coinomi wallet.
i just tried to use this but the transaction was rejected and they still took money . 72hr wait
anyone have else have issues at the start

Same thing happened to me on Kraken, i think its because i set up card instead of bank but i thought i was setting up bank, im sure they do this on purpose so they can sit on your cash for a few days.
Just started using the Moonpay app no id required and no idea if there is a limit or not doesn't seem to be though!
Thanks, ive added it to the list to check out.
im just looking at one called Kraken and the fees look ok
ok so you cant buy direct from it and you cant withdraw till 70+ hours so now my emergency cash is gone too, awesome.

i use exodus wallet and buy my coin from there to as they compair companys to get the best prices
Exodus was one of the first i tried purely as a wallet i think but wasnt aware you could buy coin on there too, ill check that out again definitely thank you.
I joined a few days ago and followed the advice given either on my welcome message or on this site somewhere. The advice was to get a wallet on blockchain.com and to buy coins via Bittylicious. I signed up to both and bought £490 worth of coins for my first purchase. GL
I've never understood the issue with coinbase. Everyone always states high fees yet EVERY other crypto I've used have had significantly higher fees than coinbase. If you were signed up to coinbase pro (now advanced trade) and buy using the portfolio app, then you get much reduced fees than usual. I literally pay like 40p in fees including the buying and sending.
Thank you ill look into this, im not aware of the portfolio app and yeah i know the fees are competitive on coinbase, that and the ease of use is why i settled on it but the £300 limit is the real problem and it says my limit is at the highest possible.
and yeah most of the ones ive tried since settling on coinbase do have similar or higher fees but not all.
and yeah most of the ones ive tried since settling on coinbase do have similar or higher fees but not all.
Actually shortly after posting this when i was checking other apps out my coinbase limit went up as well to 3000 a month so i stopped trying so hard to replace it.
does seem to be a few others that are low fees and easy to use like Bitpanda and Exodus so i may switch still at some point.

See in terms of the limit, I only really buy like $100 a week so I never really have a need to use it. As far as I know, with Coinbase since they removed coinbase pro and added advanced trade, you now need to pay a monthly subscription for no fees and a higher limit (coinbase one). Just no matter what, NEVER go to cypto.com. Worst experience I ever had
Thank you ill take your word on that one, yeah i ordered bits for 2 of my pals at the same time and blew my limit to pieces, now the bit i was going to get to do me till that bit turns up is a pipedream lol, how much is the monthly subscription, does it pay for itself in reduced fees do you think?
It would depend on your needs/wants. It's $20 a month so unless you are going to be buying/sending enough crypto to rack up $20 worth of fees, it's probs not worth it. Your limit is determined by account not coinbase in general ie coinbase don't have a percentage value to go off, it goes off your location, use, payment methods etc. You can see this by going to the "limits" section of your account. Essentially, anyone that has a $300 limit is because of a uncomplete account that has maybe not been verified or has not signed up for the advanced trade. Go to settings and account limits on Coinbase to see this information. A fully set up account can have up to a $20,000 limit through b a n k transfers
im not signed up to advanced trade no so maybe thats why i have a limit, its complete otherwise.
i probably do use that much in fees thinking about it, maybe that will be the way to go, im going to setup and try a couple of these other ones our fellow biggas have suggested.
ill update the thread if i find anything worth mentioning.
cheers pal.

Tap Finace, lower fees than coinbase and better exchange rates, you can even get a physical card to use.
currently using blockchain but fees are shit dont recommend, but they dont ask me for id and selfie every 3 transactions like coinbase
coinbase also disabled my account for 3 months once for asking a question about my account absolute joke.
imo btc is terrible now fees never used to be so high
i have used exodus before to receive payments and transfer from the wallet with funds already in there fees are dirt cheap havent used in about a year and a half or so
think i paid about £15-20 in fees to purchase and send £219 btc with blockchain about 2 weeks ago

you only need to id the first time on coinbase and those fees are definitly too high mate.
through coinbase that would be about half the fees i think.

guess i just got unlucky with them trying to id me on about 3 occasions, nd yeah blockchain a bunch of greedy fuckers
ive heard great things about Binance + i can get xrp on it unlike blockchain which is a benefit to me think you can get xrp on cb aswell.
i guess it what does you well if coinbase aint doing you dirty no need to change plus cb gives some people the learn and earn program did it back and made about £30 after i converted to btc defiantly a feature no others have.

Fucking coinbase closed my account, kind of my fault for sending directly transax addy, but still, their overreach, its my fucking money and I can with it as I please. I use exodus now, exchange rates aren't as good but still easy to work with and no ID issues.
it did take a few attempts to verify my id the first time, maybe thats what you had.
main issue with CB is the 300 daily limit, once a month me and a friend do a bigger order when that becomes a problem.
the other one ive tried so far is Kraken which had some teething issues but seems to have good fees

Cheers mate, ive been making notes and over the next few orders will be trying a few of these out and ill report back to this thread with any useful info i discover
Hey Gang,
Thanks for getting involved everyone, definitely feel there's a few options here that are better than what im using.
Just to update on my issue with Kraken, i realised now i set the kraken one up wrong and if i had done it right it would've worked fine so i should say to you all to check that one out, nice big limit etc, looks pretty easy to use if youre not an idiot like me

Thank you, not going to lie thats going on the list of possibles just for the name, looks like theres a few in the thread that are worth a look.
They're very effective. Transactions often completed in minutes and in your wallet not long afterwards.
I use paybis ... very easy to use, I buy bitcoin from them using google pay, store in a paybis wallet and pay direct for lb orders to blockchain ... all very quick process...bitcoin purchase fees are roughly about £7 per £100 ... not sure how that measures up with other traders

Payment sent but not updating
I ordered from a number of sellers and I paid in one full amount to the address provided (confirmed sent via my coinbase account) but it’s still saying unpaid here. It was pretty automatic before. How long will I have to wait for confirmation or is there a problem?
There could be blockchain issues that are causing a slowdown. How long ago did you pay? Also be careful sending direct to LB from Coinbase, a few biggas have had their accounts closed due to this.
I think the issues are with sending directly from Coinbase to Transaxe and not using a wallet. Some people report no issues, others report their accounts being flagged and/or shut down. There's only 1 function of Transaxe, so someone is aware.
I see, I always do it from my wallet so I guess that's why. I wouldn't even know how to do it another way lol
I think people are putting the Transaxe address in as the place to send the payment instead of sending it to a wallet? Frankly, that sounds completely insane to me. That's getting sent to my non-KYC wallet then to Transaxe. If anyone wants to do some tracking of our payments then they should at least have to work for it. Any issues and I can give the same wallet details.
So I usually just buy on CB then send directly to the wallet address on the order. I'm assuming this is what you mean people are doing? I've never had an issue but I could understand how there could be. I mean we are buying drugs after all😂
Exactly that. Stop doing that. Get an Exodus wallet that needs no KYC. It'll cost you about 50p more a transaction to send again, but it's an extra layer that someone has to do work to link you to. Sending directly to Transaxe from an exchange you've given all your details to? That wasn't for me.
Honestly, I've never been someone to care about that stuff. Especially nowadays, if someone wants to find information about you, they will get it no matter what you do to try and stop it. In terms of the federals, they can knock my door as much as they want, I'll just show them my medical card😂😂
So if i do from revolut and copy amd paste the addres to i need send money is ok or i need do another way? Coz im still not seeing different still saying unpaid
I think the issue is that each time you buy from here Transaxe gives you a different wallet address to send to. If somebody at Coinbase looks into your account it may look suspicious if you have frequent crypto buys going to a different wallet each time. If you always send to the same external wallet (Exodus or whatever) it doesn't seem to raise as many flags.
The above is definitely slightly speculative, but I've seen several topics raised on this subject and the one consistency amongst biggas who have had their accounts closed is they are sending to LB/Transaxe directly from Coinbase. If you've been getting away with it so far then I hope that run continues.

I dunno, I just see it as a bank (obvs it's not). If I was constantly transferring money to other accounts, which I do on a daily basis, it doesn't get flagged then. I wouldn't imagine it would be different for this. Especially when crypto is supposedly more confidential and have more security than cash, I just don't see how multiple different "purchases" would be a problem. I mean, even if you were to send money to a proper company, it's still going to go to a wallet address. In my eyes I could actually be legitly paying for normal items. If it's a case they get flagged due to the wallet addresses transaxe uses then that's a different story. That's more of a case of it just being blacklisted.
You may well be correct mate, as I mentioned a lot of my previous post is speculative. When Coinbase close accounts they are usually pretty sparse with details. I mainly use it for ease, but have accounts with Bitpanda and a few others if I end up in the firing line. I wouldn't even have mentioned it had I not seen the topics on here from others. I've had no problems myself.
We can only speculate my man. We also have to question how much of these people that did have their account closed done some other dodgy stuff with it on the side as well and blame it on LB. I simply haven't used any others purely because I've had so many issues with other crpyto websites. Coinbase is so fluid and easy that I refuse to move from it now, especially with past experiences
I hear you mate. I don't like the coinbase fees, and there are cheaper ways to buy BTC, but as you noted not many that are easier, and I keep coming back.
Are you using advanced trade? I noticed a lot of people complain about Coinbase fees since they added Coinbase One but I myself barely get charged. On all my purchases I always pay less than a pound in fees including the buying and sending. This was my main reason of keeping to CB other than the fluidity. The fees are cheaper than anywhere I've used or seen so far.
I'm not using that, thanks for the tip. The most I have paid on CB to date is around £7 on a £250 buy.
That's not too bad but it's still a hit you're gonna feel. For a £50 purchase it's usually like 68p for me. There's no fee for buying on the advanced trade as a lot of the time they have little "deals". They've got one atm until next month, same with selling.
I had the same issue took about a day for it to be completed same thing ordered 3 separate orders and sent payement
Transaxe stated received but on LB said it hadn’t then abiut a day later it was sorted
Transaxe stated received but on LB said it hadn’t then abiut a day later it was sorted
Your status will change to received by Transaxe when the initial payment transaction is initiated, but it only changes to paid when there's the 1st of 4 confirmations on that transaction. That's what you're waiting for.

Do you feel obliged to smoke?

Do you feel obliged to smoke?
If you've been smoking for a while, do you feel like you have to keep smoking? Maybe due to medical reasons or just pure addiction. Also do you see yourself still smoking in the next half of your life. I'm 25 so for me to think that I could be still smoking weed when I'm 50 doesn't entertain me, it makes me want to stop before it gets to that.
I'm 45, I've been regularly consuming cannabis in some way now for at least 28 years and I have no intention of stopping unless I'm somehow forced to.
I've quit various things in my adult life, including a 24-year long tobacco habit which is notoriously tough to kick, and I don't think my prolonged love for weed is due to addiction.
I've lived with mental health issues since my early teens and the Nineties weren't exactly the most enlightened when it came to those matters. No access to like-minded souls via the internet at the time and a total lack of understanding within general society led to my symptoms being mostly misinterpreted and left unaddressed. Even my teachers at school made things worse through sheer ignorance, and I began to feel there was no relief to be had.
The first time I smoked proper weed, that changed forever. My thoughts stopped going in 20 different directions at once at 100 miles per hour. The chatter that was similar to a bunch of detuned radios in my head distilled themselves into a single train of thought and, for the time in ages, I actually felt in control of my own mind.
It genuinely seemed like an awakening so I made sure it wasn't just a fluke by trying again a few times (proper science needs experimentation 😉). I've used it ever since and can't envisage a time when I won't want it in my life.
Like anything worth having, I believe it requires some level of moderation and caning it all day, every day is probably not going to do you any favours. It used to be the first and last thing I did each day, as well as any available opportunity in between, but my tolerance got so high that I couldn't and I lost the only pleasure I had at the time.
I learned after that to respect it and dial it back a bit. I take t-breaks when I feel the need and while I would say I'm probably addicted, I wouldn't say that I'm dependent on it. I suppose it depends on individual motivations for using cannabis but I'd say I'm definitely a lifer. 💚

Thanks Ed, this actually changed my perspective on things. Your comment about "while I would say I'm probably addicted, I wouldn't say that I'm dependent on it" made me realise than you can still have an addiction whilst keeping it managed. I guess a big part of being addicted to something is making sure it doesn't get worse.
I have a similar situation to you, mental health issues since a child but I have various bone issues too. I would have to agree with everything you've said. It's a massive relief to have something that understands you, even if it can't speak. Do you tend to have t-breaks much?
Thanks for sharing your side of the story Ed❤️

Yeah, I think addiction and dependency are often used interchangeably but they're not the same thing.
You can be addicted to anything that gives you a buzz/rush - chocolate, gambling, sex, shopping, they're all addictive. That just means you want to do it a lot though. The danger starts when the urge to do that 'something' becomes your overriding priority over everything else, at any cost.
Being honest, my next t-break is long overdue. I usually try for at least one every few months but depends on whats going on in life. Even a day or two without makes a difference for me so it doesn't need to be weeks of abstinence!
Hope you find the balance you're looking for, take care buddy.

I agree, if anything us as humans are addicted to many things that we use on a daily basis. The internet really is one of them, I can imagine it's difficult for anyone to put their phone or laptop down nowadays.
I agree, I usually have a week maybe depending on if I have money to buy more. I think the whole not being able to buy and not being able to not smoke are two separate things however. It's only being forced to not smoke is why I'm not. I should try not smoke even when I have money and see if that helps.
Thanks once again Ed, have a good week!

Oh, sweet summer child. You'll change your mind as you age, no doubt. My best dealer was in his late 50s when I was around your age and he used to come clubbing with us. Was like going out with your mate's Dad who just happened to get the best damp, yellow, piss smelling speed known to man. 2 dabs of that out of the bag and you'd be off your tits for most of the night/day.
So I've been smoking weed now for about 28 years. Many other drugs too, but I've never done opiates as I have a massively addictive personality. No doubt some vendors on here may think I'm addicted, based on my purchase levels, but I quit for 7 years and didn't smoke a thing, other than a couple of puffs on a joint a couple of times during that period. I'm on holiday now and I haven't used the nicotine patches that I brought with me. Started smoking joints again in January this year, and I'm back to my 1/2oz+/week smoking level. Roughly 8 joints a day, maybe with extra hash and whatnot. Brought a cart with me to France, and for the first few days I was getting so fucking high off it constantly. Got well over half of it left, but I've found I've been smoking it less today. Is my addiction to nicotine? If it is, how can I just stop? Haven't had any since Wednesday last week, and don't want any.
Christ, this is as long and rambling as some of my reviews, isn't it? Sorry, can't help myself.
tl;dr Don't assume that you'll feel any different in 25 years time. You'll be almost exactly the same person mentally, just tempered by time and aching more with less free time for yourself.

I remember speaking to you privately about your 7 year break. I actually told quite a few mates about it as it really intrigued me how easy it was to get your tolerance back even after all that time. It shows how easy we can get used to things. It's my whole saying of "a footballer can have a year break and still come back into the game". Do you smoke cigarettes on their own? I personally smoke weed and roll ups. I notice that when I have weed I don't want to smoke fags at all, when I'm out of weed, I smoke fags to get that feeling of me smoking something. If you are still smoking fags when smoking weed too, there's a chance it is the nicotine.
Thanks for the reply Rux😊
Thanks for the reply Rux😊
When I quit in 2016 I'd progressed to smoking fags (or, 'straights', as I was recently mocked by a young lady for using in a joint) on their own and needed to take nicotine patches with me on night shifts. I was using patches when I was trying to quit and when I went to change one after work I didn't have one to take off. I'd forgotten to put one on and hadn't realised. I didn't put another patch on. Had to Google at one point 'can you fart yourself to death?' Google and experience suggests not, other than in very extreme circumstances. Spent years saying 'not fags' if people asked if I smoked (depending on the audience) and I can genuinely say that again.
I guess the only real way of knowing is if you were to be without bud. That's the only reason I know that it's the bud I crave and not the cigs (I guess technically it's just the smoke I crave but the weed is obviously a lot better/nicer to smoke than a cig). If you were to go without bud now you've started it back up again and notice you smoke a lot of cigs now then that would probably determine the issue.
Since you started have you gone without much?
Each time you go without the more easier it is to deal with the next time.
I go without for up to a few days every fortnight.
i look at it as my medicine, whereas when i started smoking heavy in my late 20s it was just for the buzz.
You smoke enough of it and it becomes a way of life, for me to quit i would need to change my life and right now i can't see me doing that.
You're 25, as you get older you'll see more and more how dark, petty and evil the world really is, and that puts more perspective on our hobby, which harms no-one else but ourselves tho it heals more than it hurts.
Canna is a plant given to us by the Creator, to take the edge off this nasty world, unlike alcohol (i refer to it by it's real name ethanol) which only helps add to the carnage we see.
It's not addictive it's just a very useful and pleasant herb, it has the power to open eyes unlike ethanol which only blinds.
You're 25 you shouldn't be thinking beyond next week. Work hard, be kind to your brothers and sisters in this life, appreciate nature and the wonderful animal companions we have, and at the end of the day all that matters is your health. Health above all, don't eat their tainted food with carcinogenic nasties, know what you're putting into your body, and know there are good people on this earth that do care.

I think the whole "you're only young" comment is why most of us are so messed up later on in life😂But I do get what you mean. It's just in my eyes, there's no harm in making a change you feel may be beneficial later on in life. Age is all but a number, it's how you have lived your life is what matters. An 18 year old could have been through a lot more than a 35 year old for example meaning they would have more of an understanding of the repercussions of their actions over the elder that has potentially had their life go at a steady upwards pace. It doesn't make any of them wrong for being how they are but their mindsets may be completely swapped around from what you would expect. This is why I would rather figure it out now then when it's too late for it to matter. I feel people should alleviate from basing issues of age or even life in general off of age. There's plenty of teenagers nowadays that completely throw me off with how much they know/care about their body. Believe it or not, it's not a big thing to smoke anymore. Kids don't idolise it as they used to. Maybe that's because of all the balloons they've been doing but that's a different subject. From what we think may be okay, others may not. Usually we consider that to be the the shift from the eldest to newer generation however it's now the other way round. The whole "worry about it when you're older" mindset is gone now as people understand the repercussions more. Whether that's due to the internet and just more access to information now I'm not sure.
In terms of the breaks, I do have quite a lot of them. I'm a registered medical user (now) so I use it just to be able to get on with my day. When I started at 14, the buzz is all that mattered. In 10/11 years, my mindset has already changed in terms of how I feel about smoking. In another 10, the same could happen. I do agree that each time I have a break, I feel closer and closer to quitting. But it's so easy to get back into the day 1,2,3 cycle again. I guess it's more of a case of not wanting to be smoking still when I'm 50 rather than "if" I'm going to be smoking then.
I really appreciate your response 😊

I wouldn't advise anyone to start smoking canna, but for those that do i've not much advice as i'm in same boat and happy with my choices.
I think whatever you do you'll make the right choice when it comes, there's always another option to what lies in front of you, always.
Stay Blessed, Alleyne.👊

Thai Sensimilla Weed Review!
Yo Biggas! I've just done my usual review on the Thai weed sold by GC. It is on my page and you can check it out below!
https://littlebiggy.com/link/tP2s3S
https://littlebiggy.com/link/tP2s3S
I done one on the Cali Shake so I thought it was only right to do one on this too. Sorry for it being late as it's sort of pointless now it's sold out however if it ever gets restocked, you can make a judgement.
Before I get into the details of the review, I want to point out the quality of GC's shake in general. There's been an issue I've been having recently with vendor's shake being stored poorly with either hairs, cotton fibres or straight up stones in there. GC is the complete opposite and that's the main thing I love about any of their shake.
Packaging:
Golden as always and actually even more organised than last time. The double vac seal is what I love as it stops the bud/shake getting squeezed by the machine. Just slightly vac the seal with the bud in and seal the second one tight. It makes sense and vendors need to follow.
Appeal:
Not the best to look at I'll be honest. I don't like to be too fair with reviews and do like to point out things people may pick up on. However, I will stress it's just a shake thing. You can't expect bustling colours and glistening THC but I have defo had some that looks more appealing. Very small point to make and I am just being picky.
Smell:
If anyone has had the Cali Shake, I would honestly say it reminds me of that. Has a very "cali" smell to it so I'm thinking if it was some sort of UK cali strain.
Taste:
Tastes better than what it smells and that's saying something. As mentioned, it's rare shake will taste better than it smells but this really is the opposite. Really nice smoke and honestly tastes better than some low or mids I've smoked on here.
Smoke:
Very clean and packs a punch. It's not too strong to where you'll be choking but you can definately feel it going down. I didn't manage to take a picture and I know most people don't care anyway but I'll still mention it. White ash but not the whitest I've seen. No weird crackling or odd tastes every now and then, just straight to the point.
It's a shame I missed out on the Oz's of this as I would have bought more than a 5G however it's all that was left. If it ever comes back in stock I would recommend purchasing. I believe they were coming in at $50 an ounce but GC can confirm. Have a good day biggas!👍👍
Before I get into the details of the review, I want to point out the quality of GC's shake in general. There's been an issue I've been having recently with vendor's shake being stored poorly with either hairs, cotton fibres or straight up stones in there. GC is the complete opposite and that's the main thing I love about any of their shake.
Packaging:
Golden as always and actually even more organised than last time. The double vac seal is what I love as it stops the bud/shake getting squeezed by the machine. Just slightly vac the seal with the bud in and seal the second one tight. It makes sense and vendors need to follow.

I normally only buy shake when in a pinch but after seeing how the cali shake went down I had to get in on this, I was going to write a review myself as I was lucky and got the last oz, but I couldn’t really add anything more that what alleyne has already written. It really is good shake, it does have a great smell and taste to it.
Burns clean and was a bargain.
I’d have no problem buying again.

Thank you so much again Alleyne.
I think a review of this was well needed.
Just to clarify - I actually sold at a loss to the 5 people that jumped on this. Just wanted some quick honest feedback on how it smokes to see if it’s worth restocking.
Restock will be coming Monday/Tuesday and prices will start on the lower end again and increase slowly to a more sustainable permanent standard price.

Cali Shake Review
So I just received my lot today and I thought I’d do a review for people that are having second thoughts or on the fence.
Packaging:
Really discreet and also not too tight in terms of the sealing. A lot of time vendors will over pac the shake and give it either a plastic taste or make it extremely dry. GC sealed it to the perfect amount so it’s still soft and smells amazing once opened.
Appeal:
From experience, cali shake always does have an odd look to it, nothing to do with this shake in particular, just an all round thing. However it feels very soft and bud like. As GC mentions, you wouldn’t even know it’s shake if you were given a pre roll.
Smell:
Definitely has a cookies smell to it but there’s also a nice sourness you get at the end of the sniff. Definitely has that unique cali smell to it and does not at all resemble the “shake smell”.
Taste:
Tastes pretty much as it smells. Also due to the nature of the shake being quite soft rather than dry, it explodes in your grinder. Even if you were to just by the 7g, it would last you a long time.
Smoke:
Clean but packs a punch and I love that. A lot of my issues with Cali bud is that it’s too smooth when you take a drag and almost feels like you’re not smoking anything. This has that nice little kick to it to remind you it’s strong. As mentioned before, it grinds out well so if your the type to roll big joints like me, it’s perfect to do that with. White ash all around as you can see from the picture above.
I would highly recommend getting this while you can because there’s not much left already. Thanks again GC for the bargains, and keep the shake coming. You will get a lot of customers if you could get shake in constantly!

Hey Alleyne! 👋
Thank you very much for this detailed top tier review! 💚👍
I know a lot of people were probably waiting for someone to review it before purchasing so this helps out a lot.

Think I need to dispute
So I only received half an order from a seller I was using regularly and mentioned it to him and he said he would send it right out…I’ve asked 5 times in a month and a half and I just get the “I’m on it” my postman leaving nothing today (was supposed to receive Friday) is the last straw.
I’ve never raised a dispute (not even from a normal purchase) and despise the idea but that’s what it’s there for right? I’m not just donating money to some guy I give money to anyway 😂
I have no idea how to raise a dispute. Can someone please fill me in?

Normally if item is not here by 9 days you get a dispute button that appears in the order page that you use to raise a dispute…
After 16 days of not raising dispute the button expires.
You can still contact Auto Settlement Borg and Transaxe Support to help you out they should be able to still do something even though dispute time window has expired.

Sorry to hear this. If it’s been long enough since you placed the order you should have a dispute option on the order page. I think it appears 9 days from the moment the order was placed.
Don’t feel bad about disputing, seems like you’ve done all you can to resolve it yourself.

Disputes can always be cancelled once started so if you do manage to get it sorted before the dispute is settled, you can always cancel it. Otherwise you will just be contacted by the settlement borg to send your BTC address to them. Sometimes you can use a dispute to give the vendor a shove when they are not doing as they say, usually you'll see a change of heart immediately
