If your tolerance is low mate then there's a high likelihood of that. No idea what a space cake would have in it equivalent wise. If your tolerance is really low then even half may be too much. Unfortunately, if your tolerance is high it'll do nothing. 500mg+ is my dose, so edibles are not really cost effective for me.

Edibles dosage

Edibles dosage
Hi Biggas, looking for some advice please.
I just got a pack of THC gummies which are 100mg per sweet. Trouble is, I have no idea what my tolerance is like for edibles - I've had space cakes in the Dam before but I don't know what the THC content of those would be like compared to a gummy sweet.
If I eat a full 100mg sweet instead of starting with half of one, what are the chances I'll be a dribbling mess as opposed to just being pleasantly stoned?

Ooft, 500mg+ sounds like a lot. 😂 Not surprised it isn't cost effective.
Cheers Rux, I think I'll follow Johnnyh2's advice and start low. I'd rather be unaffected than completely fucked.

Seems sensible! I'd advise up to 2 hours for it to fully kick in before you think about taking any more.
Part of me wants to give a full one a try but the other part doesn't want to get moaned at all night if I'm too caned to function.
depending on what you actually have there’s a high chance its not actually 100mg per sweet - a lot of the 500mg packs are just branded like that
imo you’d be fine taking one to start

Yeah, I've eaten a couple of 500mg packs that have been included as freebies with orders and unfortunately they've mostly done nothing at all.
Thanks for the reply - they're blue stars from the Family High range, dunno if they're good for consistent dosing or not though.
Think I'll start low and see how I go, just in case!

Yeah Family High packaging is widely available so they could vary - but typically with those branded 500mg sweets they’re gonna be about 25mg realistically - you will be fine having one even if you’ve never done edibles before (assuming they’re legit gummies haha)
Cool, thanks mate. I'm probably being overly cautious, just don't want to whitey if I can avoid it.
Cut it into 4 mate 25mg to start should help you gauge where your tolerance zone is at after about an hour.
Unfortunately I’m in the same boat as Rux on tolerance and edibles aren’t cost effective for me either

If like the blue stars from your mums house…. I ate the pack 😂😂😂
Mrs gives it “your so fucking dopey tonight” 🥳🤣

Got it in one, mate! And those comments are exactly what I was trying to avoid this evening. 😂
I've only had one star and it's not done much so no tutting or sighing...yet. I've also been tucking into the Runtz and Biker which came with the stars, and I'm not quite done for the day. 😶🌫️

lol I knew it and you went with runtz and OG, a great choice if I do say so myself.
Got some more skywalker and that zoap coming soon, I’ll do a proper write up for your mums house as the deals is amazing and needs highlighting

Thanks for the reply, seems like the branded edibles are not quite as strong as advertised so still a bit of a guessing game!
This was my concern, I've heard of seasoned smokers who have a very low tolerance when it's ingested.
Thanks for the reply, I'll see how it goes!

Agree with this, a genuine 10mg gets me frazzled.
Which isn't much of a surprise because in the US/Canada 10mg is the recommended dose.
I can assure you, if it's your first time and you take a genuine 100mg, you will not enjoy it.
I always tell people to start with 5mg and go from there, you can always take more if you don't get the desired effect but you can't unfry yourself if you take too much.
Also bare in mind, the time to kick in varies a lot, if you eat them with a fatty meal it can take up to 6 hours to kick in. On an empty stomach it should only take an hour or two.
I recommend skipping the branded ones and going for the generic ones from vendors like Dr. Distillate, Gassed etc.
Full spectrum is always better than just D9 also, I have linked my favorite ones from Dr. Distillate.
They are more accurately and consistently dosed in my experience, similar price to the branded ones anyway.

Thanks for the detailed reply, really appreciate the info.
I've had a full sweet now (2.5 hours ago) and I've got a nice buzz but nothing more. Guess the quoted dosage is a bit off then!
It's all good, at least I haven't ventured into 'this is no longer fun' territory so I'll take that as a win.

the way most edibles that come in nice packaging work is they buy the packaging off of a chinese website & then fill the packs with whatever sweets they have in stock - which is why on those family high & branded gimmick type packs the “500 mg” is always false (in my lengthy experience)
currently munching on the Colonel’s ice cream cone edibles, 125mg each!

Advice on using coconut oil with AVB?

Advice on using coconut oil with AVB?
Looking for some guidance here, please.
I've got an oz of AVB saved and I'm planning to add it to some coconut oil and pop the jar in a bain marie for a few hours using a slow cooker. I'm mainly intending to use it topically for muscle pain but might also try using some for edibles. I've read about water curing the AVB first to get rid of the crappy taste although not sure I'll bother with that given most of it will be going on my skin.
Firstly, does anyone have experience of using this type of thing as a balm and does it actually work or would I likely need to use non-vaped decarb bud to extract enough of the good stuff?
Secondly, can I just use the solid coconut oil from the supermarket that's for cooking with or do I need to use a fractionated MCT oil instead?
Any advice would be appreciated!

Good little link regarding all things avb ✌️
Thanks for the link - some great ideas on there, I'd thought about a tincture before so might give that a try. Cheers!
I can’t speak to the topical use, but regarding the extraction what you suggested will work. The Bain Marie set up over 5-6 hours will work. Every hour or so just give it a shake to make sure all the AVB is under the oil.
I used regular supermarket coconut oil and it was fine - the resultant oil is plenty potent enough for edibles!

Thanks very much, appreciate the reply. 😊
I'll keep it in the slow cooker for a bit longer then but will give it a shake regularly and see how it goes.
Cheers.

I make FECO with my abv and add it to MCT oil and I find it helpful for muscle and joint pain. If you.get a refillable roller ball bottle it makes it easy to apply. I have also had good results melting it in to vaseline. Good luck mate 👍
Cheers mate, I've never even tried FECO but will have a look into how it's made and will give it a bash. I like the idea of a roller ball for application too, sounds ideal for what I need. 👍
Here's a link to a write up I did on a fairly basic method of making FECO

Thoughts on Cali weed
I've been considering this topic for a while now but a recent experience prompted me to see what others think.
I think I'm pretty much done with buying Cali bud. I'd never tried any before joining LB last year but I've tried numerous strains from a variety of different but reputable vendors now and my overall conclusion is that I'm going to stick with well-grown UK bud.
All of the mids I've tried so far have suffered from the same issues: overly dry, barely any terps so smell & taste is crap, and a lot of the flower is clearly PGR to boot. I'm guessing the lack of terps could be partly due to long periods of being vac packed for shipping but I can't help the feeling there's a reason this stuff is being shipped over to us here in bulk instead of being consumed within the US.
Full disclosure, I've only gone up to Mids level and haven't ever tried 'top tier' Cali, so I can't say whether that would change my mind. Quite frankly, I'm not prepared to fork out $100 for an eighth when I can pay less than half of that for an equivalent amount of cracking UK produce from the likes of RealD, Druids, BB, Sassy, GC, Eddy's, etc. Every single one of them has sent me gear that's put the Cali that I have tried to shame and I see no reason to spend the extra for a potential disappointment. Granted, the top level stuff might be high enough in THC to put me on my arse after two tokes but that's not really what I'm after, especially if it looks, smells and tastes like last year's fire kindling and costs the same for 2g as a half oz of homegrown.
Do any other biggas agree or do I need to try that top drawer stuff and then eat my words?

Im more of a uk fan to be honest ,i like the freshness that keeps the terps in.
Now for cali ive paid for£90 off tele groups and it was nice but never as good as a good homegrown if im honest ,some nice Doja,jungle boyz, BP boyz etc but nothing worth the money its just madness if im honest,other will say different .

Yeah, the more I think about it, the more I think that terps are probably the kicker for me. I want to be able to taste my weed and savour the difference in flavours between the various strains. Lose that side of it and I've already switched off.
I also reckon that the terps play a huge part in the overall effect of weed, perhaps more than we realise even now, so it's not just the taste that's affected when they're lost.

Guys... waky waky, the real and only shit is in Cali and cost quite a lot of bucks
Fuck those midz you guys get in the UK, the real shit is in Cali and priced up for no less than 350 / 400 an ounce. Make the math
Now if ya'll happy with midz then whatever

So...as a uk grower I'd like to throw in a few points.
PGR (plant growth regulators) are mostly how you get these rock hard leafless buds.use of pgrs normally reduces terpines by up to 30%.in the legal us market bud is heavily regulated and tested for chemicals,any hint of heavy metals or chemicals will see the batch rejected...guess where those batches go lol
Prices-with the ever increasing legal grows the price in the US has dropped from $4000-6000 a pound to roughly $800!! Obviously time of year and quality dependant.
You can see how shipping around the globe is far more lucrative than their home market.
Genetics-mainly down to a numbers game..superb clones are much easier to find when your running thousands of plants compared to the average uk grower running 2msq or less.however,same as the bud,it doesn't take long for any clones to circulate the globe!
Market-the uk market seems to be falling for the the old cost=quality and weed that smashes you to sleep is best!.so the cali imports are mainly indica dominant and do just that.this is a shame as cannabis is so much more than getting red-eyed and eating crisps and sweets!!
UK-there are growers like me everywhere in every town,I am a member of many international forums and have been for 20yrs.
My bud is artisan shit,the finest genetics grown with love and skill.
Yet...my bud looks white with trichomes but isn't this false cali look so isn't regarded as top notch by an uneducated market...that is until they smoke it!!
I would encourage biggys to grow their own!! For the price of a q of cali you could be up and running and be 100% of what you are putting in your lungs,have several varieties and a great new hobby!!

Any tips on budget grow gear ? I’d only want space for 2 plants or something . Also does it not cost a bomb in energy if you aren’t selling
I fucking hate the term mate.
More so as we now have Cali (lows, mid, high, ultra, etc.)
I’ve tried some of the higher price stuff recently and it is EPIC.
I’m still yet to try one of those named 120quid and eighth packs from tgd.
For science and you lot, I need to, but my brain stops me every time I go to order cos I will Chong it almost as quick as lesser stuff.
Can I put a tips page up and we all chip in for the review?? 😂
Now, the stuff from just weed recently was legendary! The gushers a stand out for my terp preference.
However, the apple fritters which is same as Druid price 90$ for 7g iirc and is on point!
Like you I think uk grows can be just as special, occasionally more special as I expect our growers arent making as much as our US counterparts = Less love per plant!!!!
RealD skittles it top notch for price I don’t think it’s been beaten for me ever!
Rate everyone you mentioned, chase the terps is new and has EPIC “Cali” status uk drawer from the few I had.
It’s all subjective though to a degree, cos I tell you now if I won lottery I’d buy a lot of the higher price options 😂
But also the lower price as I usually enjoy them and like variety.
In summary I think the terms getting over used and diluted with tiers and what not making a buyers purchase even fucking harder!
Hence I love all your reviews and has helped Apex find some good stuff ❤️🤜

Surely cali mids lows whatever they are, is weed they don't want and send it over here assuming it is from cali 🤔
There are often intro offers where you can just try a g and make up your own mind about it. I've had some great top shelf 'Cali' off here that's been so strong I've had to rest through a joint, and equally I've had some that I'd never re-buy and was thankful I'd only committed to a small buy.
And yeah, surely if it was that good it would be snapped up by the home market. I've noticed in French supermarkets over the years that good recent vintages from a couple of years previously are readily available, and the poorer new vintages are all on our supermarket shelves.

There is VAST over production of cannabis across N.America…honestly Google it- we are talking hundreds of tonnes of the stuff being destroyed (Canada destroyed 425 MILLION G’s last year!!😵)…so there is plenty of all qualities to find it’s way over here. Purchase price isn’t the issue, it’s all just shipping and risk….
Great point mate.
I’m loving sampler boxes and a great way to try a joint and keg of a few that are usually out my price range 🥳

Yep, I've taken advantage of some sample offers which are great for trying things out.
Wish there were more of those for the top shelf expensive stuff but I know they leave vendors open to abuse from trolls so I get why they're not that common.

Thanks dude, your reviews were part of what inspired me to take the plunge when I first joined LB so it's come full circle. 😊
I'm with you on those Zkittlez, the standard against which others are judged for me too!
I'll maybe take a punt at some point if I'm flush and I see some reliable recommendations so I'll keep my eye out for Apex reports on the premium offerings. 😉 💚

Just weeds : apple fritters is actually $70 for the 7 which is a steal imo 🥳

I’m with you about it wanting to pay out the ass for bud, it’s hard for me because I budget how much I’m going to spend but my tolerance is high so I don’t really have the freedom to throw 90 quid on a Henry when, despite it probably looking smelling and tasting incredible I don’t feel the difference until I’ve smoked loads of it, so even for a treat for me it’s out the question.
I get live resin vapes for 60 quid and when I’m WFH I’m blasting it most of the day and get 3 days out of it and that gets me stoned, not as much as I’d like but more than weed but again the price point don’t know about you but I don’t have £500 + month for loads of options I just work a normal job.
The problem I have with loads of the UK grown good weed is even here people are asking for more than they’d ask for their cali mids we’re taking like 130 a half and even if it’s really good weed I wouldn’t pay that for anything from the UK unless it’s undisputedly top tier.
That being said, I’ve never had any ‘proper cali’ from here at those prices l, I’ve had Spanish weed that said it was cali and that was nice, everything I get from the USA gets stopped in transit or turns up crispy as sin.

Agreed, I need to spend wisely and I can't justify the additional cost whether it's import or not, especially knowing what else is on offer here. I'm pretty sure I'd be disappointed.
I've had some great smoke from Spain and from Hashishin too so I'm open to imports and ordering from outside the UK, I just find Cali to be a buzzword used too often now to pass off substandard import weed as 'pure fire' when it's no better than your average Thai stick. 😂
Now if someone could just organise me a personal supply direct from a CA farm...

I've been underwhelmed so far, most likely I need to try something a lot stronger but I can't justify the cost these days
If it's PGR it's not Cali, PGR is banned in the US.
Cali mids are no better than UK top shelf.
Genuine Cali top shelf beats top shelf UK any day but good luck getting that over here, I've been to Cali a few times and their weed is legit better than anything over here. Same is also true of Canada and Washington (state).
The only legit Cali I've had off here is from Instant Grams and it was 100% worth it as I'm a quality over quantity person.
That said, you have no idea whether what you have bought is Cali or not and to be very blunt, if it's not ridiculously expensive, it's not legit. Importing and distributing top shelf USA weed is not cheap and anyone selling Cali for slightly more than UK is having you on.

IMO proper cali smokes are way better than most UK. Average cali is absolutely hit and miss.
I tend to consume 90% UK, 10% Cali. UK is good enough a smoke, it does the job, but I find top shelf calis an overall better smoking experience. The smoothness of the smokes, the slow, clean burns allows you to just relax and enjoy a joint.
People mention freshness, but if you have the right plugs you can get fresh cali too. I know of top shelf cali dropping in the US and being available in the UK the same week as they're backdoored before being sent for testing, etc. But most loose cali has probably been sitting in warehouses for months.

I'll need to give that cake a go at some point but your Ice Cream Float badder has jumped to the top of my shopping list so the bud might need to wait. 🤤
…
$99 of Tropical Cali mid for under $100 link added dude
You could’ve at least pretended to engage in the discussion while dropping your adverts mate 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Maybe smoke some of your out of stock gear, chill out and reflect on what I was saying….
Had you added your comment about “hey hear what your saying about price, terps, dryness and what not, maybe I can help to change your mind *insert link*
This way you might connect with more people who in turn will click said link.
I’m just a buyer, offering you a comment of how it repulsed me away from your gear instantly.
Your comments sealed that for me and I wish you a good day 🤜

Anyone want a free Dynavap M (silver, think it's the 2021 version)?
I bought it last year and I've never been able to get along with it at all so it's just been sat in a drawer for months. Happy to pop it in the post if someone else can make use of it.

Finally hit the ton!
Kinda seems like more but suppose that's about one order a week on average since I joined so not that bad really. 😶🌫️ 😮💨
This place has genuinely changed my life. Thanks to all the amazing vendors for superb products and service, and to all you lovely Biggas who've helped me along the way with advice and recommendations. 💚

BTC transaction delay

BTC transaction delay
I placed an order yesterday at 17:55 and made payment immediately via my wallet. The transaction has still not competed (09:20 the following day) and I'm currently unable to make any further payments from my wallet.
Anyone know if there's any way to hurry this along? Thinking about cancelling the LB order and starting again but not sure if that'll just tie up the BTC anyway.

This link explains how you can rebroadcast your transaction using the CPFP method.

I’ve had the same issue as you just recently. As far as I can tell the minimum attractive processing fee spiked just as I sent the bitcoin. It took a good 24 hours to confirm.

Thanks very much for the info, appreciate it. 👍
I'll see how it goes today, if it's still not confirmed by this evening then I'll give the CPFP method a go.

Mighty vapouriser for £199 (2nd July 2023)

Mighty vapouriser for £199 (2nd July 2023)
The prices on this site seem to change frequently but haven't seen the Mighty this cheap before.
I've been considering it for a while now and couldn't resist when it's under £200. Now I just need to stop buying stuff off LB so I can pay the credit card bill. 😂

Tasty discount on that Herb Ripper grinder when bought at the same time... Won't see a discount like that on one of those other than with this offer.
It is, but it's the last someone may ever need. To quote Ferris Bueller, 'It is so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up.'
It's stainless steel, and feels like a high quality tool. Cuts through almost any bud like butter. The 4 piece version with a replacement grinding plate was £149 even with the discount.
But why is it priced so high? Those qualities aren't enough to warrant such a high cost imo. Some things are expensive for the sake og being expensive I guess. It's probably an amazing grinder though, and I wish I was rich enough to own one. Luckily I've yet to buy a grinder that doesn't grind, no matter how cheap 😂
Not a clue, but that's the cheapest you'll find it and they regularly sell out on multiple websites. I'd done some overtime and haven't bought a grinder in about 15 years, so thought I'd treat myself (no doubt weed and wine were involved at the time too). It comes with a stainless steel ball that you're supposed to put in the middle section to shake around to work the kief through the mesh into the bottom chamber. It's annoying as fuck, so you'll invariably take it out and forget to put it back in.
It’s only the mighty not the + version.
Have they put the prices up as I think I only paid £280 for my plus version?

A future with weed as a Class A?

A future with weed as a Class A?
I noticed this on my daily browsing and it got me thinking.
On one hand, I don't think this will actually get any traction, it's just out-of-touch relics passing judgement on something they clearly don't understand. Given the resistance this move would (hopefully) face from most politicians and police chiefs, I really don't see it going anywhere.
That said, some areas of mainland Europe have gone heavily right-wing over recent years and I asked myself what a near future in the UK would look like should these fuckwits somehow get their way...
I only found out about LB earlier this year and it came at the time when I needed it most. I had to relocate and had no local contacts so had to rely on others to get weed for me. I use weed to help treat depression and not knowing when I could next score caused me no small amount of anxiety. Finding this community changed that and I'd hate for it to be taken away by some bellends that can't tell the difference between cannabis and heroin.
I get that one of the reasons for LB's longevity is the fact it doesn't offer hard drugs which presumably keeps the feds from taking too much notice, but would that potentially change if cannabis was changed to being a Class A substance?
As a customer, I could still claim ignorance of any packages which were intercepted so it wouldn't dissuade me from buying on LB but not sure how vendors would feel given the more severe penalties for supplying.

Hey bro! I really hope you’re able to overcome your mental health issues, weed and hash also helps me with mine and I honestly love the LB community and the weed smokers community in general ❤️ It’s so heart breaking seeing the UK slowly crumble away with all these new issues :( whilst the majority of the world are legalising, our homeland is considering making our Mother Nature derived coping mechanism into a class A substance 😭 I strongly believe and hope the community will stand against this bullshit from happening
Thanks dude, same to you. I've been living with these issues for 31 years so doubt they'll ever go away but the bud certainly helps. It's not all about medication though, tbh - I really enjoy getting high! 😂
Here's hoping that the Tories get their marching orders at the next election and we see a more progressive government next time.

‘No plans’ to change classification of cannabis to Class A, says No 10
The new Home Secretary is more evil than Sauron himself.
She obviously is trying to raise her profile with the fr-right fringes of the Tory party which is what all this Rwanda deportations and Class A bollox about.
Given how the Tories are pissed off with the current Government she will be one of many having to walk the plank in the end (hopefully).
The best way to prevent this of course is to defeat them at the ballot box which we should all do when the time comes :-)
Mind you other countries such as France aren't any better off these days even though people smoke a lot over there.
Cheers

Yeah, I think you're right. With all the opposition the current government have even from within their own party, I really hope the next election sees them booted out.
I'm just glad I don't live in Italy, they're scarily close to being back in the Mussolini era. Not sure what that means for smokers there but I can't imagine it's anything good.

It's the hypocrisy that gets me. UN says the UK is the largest EXPORTER of medical marijuana but our government says it has no health benefits.
Indeed, they're happy to produce it and sell it to other countries for a profit but it's too dangerous for us citizens...? 🤔
The usual double standards, I'm guessing they fail to see the irony of locking up small-time dealers whilst trading in vast quantities of weed themselves!

And with the "cost of living crisis" or as I like to call it "our last chance to rob the plebs blind before the next election" I'm surprised they haven't looked at legalising and taxing it. Tbh I would pay more in tax if it was legal

Hi psix0z concerned stoner here are you going to be ok if you don't win you seem....... let's say concerning 🤣👯♀️
Was the raffle tickets sent out via chat? I’ve ordered in this time frame but can’t find evidence I received any.
Lucky TGT
Hooked on TGT anyway but these giveaways just make them even more special. Gone are the days of waiting for a dealer who’s over an hour late, with questionable quality and often underweight, to TGT who deliver when they say they do and Royal Mail has been pretty reliable, with quality that is ALWAYS top shelf and might I add often overweight?! Stop here and don’t bother going elsewhere - I did it briefly a couple years ago and you genuinely won’t find the same quality as you will here. The only time I order elsewhere is for cartridges but otherwise TGT is my one stop shop. I mean even the shroom is top, but obviously treat that with respect. I can’t rave about these guys enough!

I have 2 orders in this time frame, but 3 tickets, and I have no idea which 2 correlate to this... 2 are orange and 1 is purple, but I think I had an orange one last time...

Popping over to Yourmumshouse?
The Biker from YMH is even better than their Skywalker, IMO. Both are lovely and taste much the same but the Biker has the edge on potency.

Popping over to Yourmumshouse?
YMH appreciation post.
You know that homely feeling you get, when you go see that mother figure in your life? That warm home cooked meal? A fresh set of mum washed clothes?. That is how visiting Yourmumshouse has felt for me... ;)
Seriously wanted to write a topic about my experience just so it doesn't get entirely lost through reviews!
Had 2 orders from YHM. (I will add here as a cover to all the buds, that in terms of structure, buds are fantastic, some a little drier here and there but overall plenty of terps, not over dense but still chunky. Obvs some fluffiness/terp coverage etc varies but all are very impressive from essentially 9 different strains total)
First was 2ozs from the 160 deal. We had Wedding Cake, Ice cream cake, Skywalker OG and Biscotti.
The Wedding cake was a phenomenal example. I really don't know how to describe it. I have seen poorer "cali" examples go for 2x the price.
The Ice cream cake wasn't quite as good as the wedding cake, but I will say that isn't a dig at it, its just how good the wedding cake was. The Ice cream was still a lovely smoke, just a tiny bit tamer imo.
The Skywalker took me back the first time i tried the strain a few years ago, and I never had a recreation of that high until YMH.
Biscotti just slapped. Was not to underestimated as both myself and the mrs made that mistake a couple times lol. SUPER flavour.
Then the second order (pictured top down - Apple Pie Cake, Oreoz, Lemon Poppers, Super Runtz and Sunday/Sundae Driver)
I pinged YMH a message asking for recommendations on the premium 190 bundle as I wanted to spend a lil more for something extra on my birthday. Mentioned the Oreoz, Super Runtz and some Lemon Poppers they had and offered to give me a Oz split between the 3. As well as that chucked in a extra pack of edibles (I am 1.5hrs through the entire pack as i write this and I may have gone overboard with all the bud sampling i have done too). I picked up 1oz of the cali, and 1oz of the 160 deal again.
Apple Pie Cake - Super frosty and terpy goodness. It does remind me a little of the wedding cake but less stoney but more euphoric and a much fruiter taste as the name would imply.
Oreoz - One of the most purple infused buds i have ever had. Also quite terpy, I don't think the flavour is as in your face as everything else, but a very typic oreoz heavy stone.
Lemon Poppers - I think this is my personal favourite of this order. Really nice strong lemon taste and smell. Bit like those lemon sherbet sweets. Had lemon poppers before, but the initial few draws caught me off guard quite heavy in the head, but then as quickly as it came, washed into a super energetic, euphoric high.
Super Runtz - Probably the best "Runtz" variety I have had as well. I have usually stayed away from Runtz phenos mostly due to the first couple of tries were disappointing. This is NOT disappointing. Got that citrusy/candy like smell and taste that I never got from the other ones i tried that everyone told me Runtz was about. A nice gassyness to this as well.
Finally, I might come back to edit this for Sunday/Sundae Driver, as I am balls deep high, and I don't know if I will make it through another J today. Time will till. But what I will say it that the buds are super frostied and there is a deep sweet smell thats tempting me.
I couldn't say which I think is better between the more expensive deal or not, but that is in no way a insult to anything, its is more how impressively good the buds are in the cheaper deal for the price.
To top it off. Hats off to one of the best stealth whilst keeping the buds themselves to nicely intact and loved.
YMH have honest to god become my go to in just a month and a bit. Super friendly, polite and sell one of the best selections on LB imo.
I know this went a bit ramble like, and I don't want to seem like a suck up or shill. I am just 100% super impressed (and high)
You know that homely feeling you get, when you go see that mother figure in your life? That warm home cooked meal? A fresh set of mum washed clothes?. That is how visiting Yourmumshouse has felt for me... ;)
Seriously wanted to write a topic about my experience just so it doesn't get entirely lost through reviews!
Had 2 orders from YHM. (I will add here as a cover to all the buds, that in terms of structure, buds are fantastic, some a little drier here and there but overall plenty of terps, not over dense but still chunky. Obvs some fluffiness/terp coverage etc varies but all are very impressive from essentially 9 different strains total)
First was 2ozs from the 160 deal. We had Wedding Cake, Ice cream cake, Skywalker OG and Biscotti.
The Wedding cake was a phenomenal example. I really don't know how to describe it. I have seen poorer "cali" examples go for 2x the price.
The Ice cream cake wasn't quite as good as the wedding cake, but I will say that isn't a dig at it, its just how good the wedding cake was. The Ice cream was still a lovely smoke, just a tiny bit tamer imo.
The Skywalker took me back the first time i tried the strain a few years ago, and I never had a recreation of that high until YMH.
Biscotti just slapped. Was not to underestimated as both myself and the mrs made that mistake a couple times lol. SUPER flavour.
Then the second order (pictured top down - Apple Pie Cake, Oreoz, Lemon Poppers, Super Runtz and Sunday/Sundae Driver)
I pinged YMH a message asking for recommendations on the premium 190 bundle as I wanted to spend a lil more for something extra on my birthday. Mentioned the Oreoz, Super Runtz and some Lemon Poppers they had and offered to give me a Oz split between the 3. As well as that chucked in a extra pack of edibles (I am 1.5hrs through the entire pack as i write this and I may have gone overboard with all the bud sampling i have done too). I picked up 1oz of the cali, and 1oz of the 160 deal again.
Apple Pie Cake - Super frosty and terpy goodness. It does remind me a little of the wedding cake but less stoney but more euphoric and a much fruiter taste as the name would imply.
Oreoz - One of the most purple infused buds i have ever had. Also quite terpy, I don't think the flavour is as in your face as everything else, but a very typic oreoz heavy stone.
Lemon Poppers - I think this is my personal favourite of this order. Really nice strong lemon taste and smell. Bit like those lemon sherbet sweets.

Great write up! Ordered from them this afternoon for the first time ever, and it seems lots of others have too recently. Some weird draw of the universe bringing us to the apparently epic buds?
Same here, I'd seen their page before but hadn't ever ordered from them. I saw their £160 an oz offer in November and gave it a go. I was blown away by how good the bud was and I've had another order in since to try some of the other strains.
Seems like I'll need to get another one in because the Diamond Runtz looks divine. 🤤

Weird though, isn't it? I think this has been here for ages, and we all descended like weed piranhas, again. Cosmic, man. That Biker really tempts me, and I'd be interested putting the Skywalker up against my current stash from a different quality vendor.
The Biker from YMH is even better than their Skywalker, IMO. Both are lovely and taste much the same but the Biker has the edge on potency.
The Skywalker is very similar to another vendor's offering, if you like that then you won't be disappointed with this one.

Music to my ears! 🥳
The uk bud deal is amazing, had the wedding cake and skywalker and both topped quite a few “Cali” orders.
Terps was potent on both and good high, so I’m back for the Biker and runtz 🤤

Yeah, I only found YMH from them posting on a topic a couple months ago. Stuck a bookmark on as someone to try and just really pleasantly blown away.
Really do think that skywalker would have been another 40 with some vendors lol

Your late to the party bro your mum's has been one of my go 2s since I started them and the gentleman, I put in an order for the first time yesterday with Shroom of the loom ... 24hr tracked not dropped yet so I'll expect it tomorrow . But yeah your mums have had some real bangers👍
Hey thanks for taking the time to do this lengthy write up, and ofcourse thanks for the support from myself and my assistant.
Fyi Skywalker OG is back on the deal now. Strains always changing and there will be new ones added weekly.
Thanks

Great read mate, I've been enjoying YMHs bud this week too.
Also nice work on the headline, it'll never not be funny to say shit like "I'm just grabbing my bits at Your Mums House".

Told a mate of mine where I'd ordered from earlier and it amused him too. Still need to get him to sort out his crypto buying, and then I'll send him a link...
Literally sent a pic to my friend earlier today and he asked ‘who from’ in which I said your mums house and left it at that 😂
Bro i told my mum where i ordered from n she told me that gran was dead and she burst out laughin .... Moms got a dark sense of humour :/
Nice write up mate. I’ve had a few strains from YMH and they were all decent. You should give the Biker OG a try if you liked the Skywalker.
I'm really enjoying that Biker OG, has to be up with there as one of the best bang for your buck smokes on here at the minute.
Have been wanting to grab the Biker OG but I need to keep the Mrs happy as well as treating myself, otherwise it would have been in this months basket 😂
Well I've been super baked all weekend on both the Zoap x Peach Jet Fuel and the Oreoz. I'll be back for more very soon, I think... Superb service, excellent packaging that doesn't crush the buds, and great buds at a very keen price. What more could you ask for?
Got to jump in again as I think this is the best deal on atm!
Went back for seconds and the runtz is phenomenal for the money!!’🔥🔥🔥

✨💖Pressing question! ☮️✨
Hey everyone so with the way the world is going at the moment I have a sneaky suspicion that the postal services may start x-raying parcels. (Maybe not now or in few years but I feel something in the air.)
Not to get all conspiratorial or whatever I just have a vibe that good things are coming to an end or getting clamped down on. So my question is; should I start powdering all my fruiting body mushrooms into a powder? That way if it does get flagged up I can just say it’s powdered lions mane or shiitake or something, it would be easier to explain and get away with rather than an exotic looking mushroom.
How do people feel about powdered mushrooms?
I can assure you all I would never put anything in apart from the fruiting body, my philosophy has always been treat others how I would want to be treated and receive and get products how I expect them to arrive.
Share your thoughts!!
Mush love and peace to you all!!
Cate 😊

One of my go to sellers started grinding their shrooms and I trust these guys implicitly, but I won't buy them until they sell them whole again. I want to be 100% certain what I'm getting, guarantees mean nothing unfortunately
Hey Hugh!✨
Thank you very much for your input also, really do appreciate all of your guys opinions!! 💚
Totally understand where you are coming from; it’s like me with edibles (before I recently stopped THC ) I couldn’t just blindly buy not knowing what exact ingredients was being put inside, so I used to buy hash and made my own edibles…thinking about it now I guess im not 100% certain that the hash I was getting was 100% legit so to speak too 😨…I digress I totally get it! I guess I just hope that if and when things do get crazy enough and I am resorted to pure powder only that my reputation and product will hold up. I guess with anything in life it is a gamble..anyways ive gone off on a tangent I do apologise! 😅
Thank you so much again!!!!

Stupid thing is I would still buy microdosing capsules, which is the same in essence. I just like my mushrooms to look like mushrooms when i'm doing a full trip, maybe it's a control thing, monitoring the dose etc. good luck
Hi Cate - like others who've commented, I personally prefer them to be sold whole however that's mainly because I've read that powdered shrooms lose their potency more quickly than whole ones. No idea how true this is, or how much quicker they degrade, but I only buy shrooms for occasional microdosing and 3.5g can last me for months. I therefore avoid buying them pre-powdered in case they've lost their power by the end of the bag. Hope that helps.
Not stolen from nothing to declare or anything but...
Have you considered investing in carbon paper? They used it on the show as I stops X-rays from showing clear scans. Obviously if they're looking for that then it'll be obvious but for internal deliveries I doubt they'd go beyond these means..

Glad to hear it helps. Upon retrospection, it seems that this paper was more for covering scents than X-rays so it may not be the best suggestion given vac packing

Hi Cate
You're a smart girl.
I've only ever bought shrooms in caps on LB and have been happy with what I got.
I never bought any from you though (you're welcome to send me a sample if you want ;-) ) but I told a good friend about your Stargazers.
My philosophy is: better safe than sorry so I for one would certainly not blame you for taking a cautious approach.
I actually carry shrooms around Europe in powdered form, I carry them in those high-street mushroom supplements plastic bottles passing them for Lion's mane etc.
You could certainly do the same and reuse well-known high street brands ;-)
Good Luck

Hey Duke!✨
Thank you very much for your lovely words and feedback! And for promoting my stars! 😊🌟 (haha love your style; you don’t ask, you don’t get 😉)
Very Interesting and noted about travelling through Europe with powdered shrooms, great idea with the lions mane plastic bottles!!
(Haha get a Tesco value packet and put the blame on them! 😂)
Really appreciate all of your insight!! 💖
Also not sure if you have done so but you may the knowledge, with selling to Europe and the whole customs form stuff how would one get past that? I take it false addresses and obviously labelling product as you said before as lions mane etc.) do fake address work or am I looking too deep in the wrong areas!
Thank you so much again!

Hey Cate
You're welcome.
I know I've been a bit cheeky but as you said if you don't ask you don't get ;-)
Nothing to lose here...
You'd be interested in knowing that BEFORE Brexit I could ship FRESH mushrooms to the EU by putting them with honey in a jar of "Funghi Porcini e Tartufo Bianco".
My reasoning at the time was that if customs would X-ray the stuff and then check the jar they would see that it was meant to contain mushrooms so they would not go as far as testing for psilocybin/psilocin.
It worked like a charm 🌟
After Brexit you should fill in some phytosanitary paperwork - including for powdered form.
I wouldn't chance it as if they get intercepted that will be on you.
We should never FORGET AND FORGIVE the bastards who engineered this swindle, specially not the slimeballs who are now "defecting" to keep climbing up the greasy pole.
I'm short of BTC right now but if you do offer them in powdered form - specially micro-dose such as a stamets stacks between 0.1 and 0.2 mg per capsule - I will buy some later this year when I do stash up some crypto.
May the Force Be With You

Oh wow that is super interesting regarding shipping fresh mushies to eu! was Such a great idea too!
Ah I see what a shame! Yeah I agree it’s not worth the risk now.
Totally agree with everything you said!!
I used to make micro dose caps, with 0.2 magic and 0.5 lions mane, but as I had to hand make each individually it was taking me 2hrs to make 20caps so I aborted that idea, but I can def offer powder form to anyone who requests it! Totally understand if you dont want to get any mushies from me but If you ever do I may chuck in a cheeky extra for ya! 😉😂
May the force be with you too and keep the fungus amongst us!! 🍄💚

Haha no worries I totally understand where you are coming from!! i guess its the way things are marketed or maybe just the way our minds work, like if you expect a whole mushroom you want a whole mushroom.
It’s a totally different realm and nothing to do with this but I have kicked off before because a product I asked for got substituted for something similar but not the exact one what I wanted! 😂 we are weird creatures us humans!

Dry Herb Vape - advice needed
Hope everyone had a nice Christmas! Ive decided to transition from burning weed to a dry herb vape. Does anyone have any advice on the best brand to buy/anything i should be aware of? All advice is appreciated!
ive had lots of vapes over the years (dont cheap out) and I have to say the best for me is a mighty or a volcano both German makes.
It depends on how you want to use it.
I like to sip on my vape for gentle, long lasting hits, for me the Crafty+ was great but have since upgraded to a Venty which is the best vape I've ever bought.
If you're looking for big hard hits, something like a Tiny Might 2 is a great portable device.
I also own an Arizer XQ2 desktop vape, doesn't come out very often but it's a beast of a vape. A Volcano is also a great option.
Like others have mentioned, don't waste your money on a cheap vape, they will save you money over time, the high is MUCH better due to the lower temperatures and the flavour is out of this world compared to combustion.

Plump for a Mighty and you just won't go wrong. I have that plus a Venty, a TM2 a Dynavap, an Arizer plus god knows what else gathering dust on The Shelf (VAS or 'Vape Acquisition Syndrome' is a very real
thing lol!).
I probably most often pick up The Mighty and it must be 5 years old (they are a real workhorse). If you team it with a Rocket (glass+beads) stem you will rid yourself of both the horrible plastic mouthpiece and the fiddly-as-fuck-to-clean Cooling Unit in one easy step and have a much improved airflow.
By adding dosing capsules and cotton bacon you can also use it with soft hashes and extracts or 'sandwich' concoctions of your own (mixing weed with resin for example).
There is very little not to love!

Dynavap saves money on weed and will last a lifetime, i own many vapes and always go back to this one.
My favourite gear for dry herb: Arizer Solo 3 2.0, Arizer XQ2 my number one, for concentrates: Yocan Orbit and Yocan Pilar.
Advice: watch videos on YouTube about cleaning and vape quality.
Advice: watch videos on YouTube about cleaning and vape quality.
I’ve been dry herb vaping for years and years now. I started with a cheap £50 and it was useless. Transitioned to the S&B mighty and never looked back. I’ve had a mighty, a mighty+ and now I’m on a S&B Venty. They are very expensive but by far the best. If I was to choose again I would go for the mighty +
I've been using mine for 6 months and I love it.
I would advise spending around £100 at least. Cheaper models won't do the job properly. I use an XMaxV3 pro, but there's lots to choose from.

It’s not cheap but the TinyMight 2 hits like a train. It’s more of a ripper than a sipper though.
Not sure how old this posting is but +1 on the volcano. It's the only dry vape I've ever gotten where I've managed to stick to it consistently without relapsing
You can also get loads of attachments for it to improve the user experience, ie. I got a bubbler and connector so I can water filter the smoke coming from it. I'd also recommend FB marketplace as there's loads of people selling second hand at a bargain
For the wets, puffco is great but pricy

I have second Mighty S&B in 10 years. Also for fun with old friends i bought Volcano Hybrid. They are really polite and responsible when you are handling a complaint with manufacturer.
I catch a good deal and bought both under 250€ per one.

I've had a few and my favourite is still the Mighty / Mighty+. It's easy to use and gives consistently great results - I also like its flexibility, with the option to have a few puffs then switch off or have a proper session.
I also have a Volcano Hybrid but it's more for when I'm looking to get absolutely baked, and I use the Mighty way more often. The Volcano is also about twice the price so I'd recommend avoiding that for now if you're new to vaping weed in case you decide it's not for you.

Dynavap for home use and some kinda electric portable for out and about (I use Xmax V3 pro)
Thanks for all the advice. I decided to get a Mighty Plus as they were on sale. Looking forward to trying it after a self-imposed T-break. For anyone interested; the following store currently has a sale across a range of herb vapes: https://herbalizestore.co.uk/collections/sale
The frolic seems to be the one everone is going for now or if you can afford it the taffee bowl 2.

Don’t waste your time, money or patience on those overpriced dodgy dry herb vapes. If you want a better high without tobacco go for live resin carts, it’s the closest thing. Otherwise make your own edibles, brownies are easy to make. Trust me on this. I spent lots of money and time on those dry herb vapes, wasting a lot of weed trying to find a way to minimise that awful tickle cough they all produce, water bongs connected etc, without success. Would then be on here convincing myself and others dry herb vapes were the way forward because I had to find a way to justify all the money, weed and time I had wasted on it….but that’s just my experience and opinion…:)

Shake 🫨 🫨🫨
Okay fellow bigga’s lots of vendors selling shake on here…who’s the go to on this? Looking for best quality for making my own edibles…
Your Natural Shake for me bro, swift delivery, many different strains available, bit stickie sometimes but always quality 10/10
Your Mum's House have some lovely shake just now, lots of tiny nugs and tons of kief as well. Not tried it for edibles but it's great for vaping and smokes well too.
Service is always spot on, never had a parcel take more than a day to arrive.

I loved it 2 weeks ago but now I can't take a draw of my joint without coughing . Its harsh harsh!
That's cos you're supposed to vape Shake. Shake can consist of trim, and you don't wanna combust leaves, that's what's giving the harshness.
Best tip I got from a fellow bigga was for the V3pro.
That was to get the glass mouthpiece and remove the screen then only use dosing caps.
It increases the airflow and keeps the oven clean and makes it so much better to use.
I still use mine for hash and extracts but I now use the water pipe adapter and vape it through a little bong.

They're pretty good, just can't get used to it, or? I get the wanting a J, but if you're buying shake, pick out the popcorn nugs, and just grind the rest. J for the Nugs, rest in the vape.
I just can't get used to it man . Putting in they wee dosing caps and I never have really felt the stone but I want to quit tobacco in sick of smoking it in joints.
Try sandwiches, flower with a bit of hash or concentrate in the middle in your caps. I used to use dosing caps with my mighty, but just became a pain, but I love my Mighty, don't even bother rolling up anymore unless I'm going out
Gotta be riley for me 💚🙏😇 always bang for your buck!
Oro verde has some of the nicest skunky fresh shake on here. I would highly recommend them mate!
Slightly delayed 😂 but this is where I landed and I was VERY impressed. Fresh, great flavour profiles and lots of small nugs. Made for some banging gummies 🤪
Shake seems to be very popular on here, never purchased it myself.
What do people do with it? Smoke it? Cook with it, what kind of things would you bake?

I normally use shake and trim to make butter and bake with it. Only need shake, butter, pot and some cheese cloth, then I can use the butter as I would normally butter (depending on the dosage) best things to make in my opinion is something with a lot of chocolate or strong flavour because strong canna butter can have a strong earthy taste same as an extract oil just not quite that concentrated

I recently took a week off- did it in tandem with another Bigga for mutual encouragement!
Weirdest thing was the intense dreams. Not bad dreams, just dreams that wake me up 30 times a night. Exhausting!

That's some good going, well done. A single day off and I'm proud of myself. I need to have a break soon though so will try and use your example as inspiration!
I once had a forced t-break while staying with family and I can still remember one of the dreams I had. I was caught up in a terrorist attack and it was proper full-on but somehow not really a nightmare. I woke up about 20 times but every time I went back to sleep, the dream picked up again and carried on, it was properly weird. I was knackered the next day but also amazed at how vividly I could still remember the details of everything that had happened.
I personally like the crazy dreams when I'm on a break but can understand why some wouldn't.

I didn’t mind the dreams at all, some were actually really ‘nice’…they were just so vivid it was crazy!😵💫
Good luck with the next break amigo👍

Try taper off your usage, discipline yourself and cut down usage. Then when it comes to the actual T break I've heard people using CBD to help, but not something I've tried personally.
First couple of days end up being the worst, but try keep yourself busy & question your cravings, if you can catch yourself wanting a toke you can talk yourself out of it 👌
Having said that if you're using it medicinally then do whatever works for you, people ain't taking t breaks for prescription meds.. 🙄

I recently did a 10 day t break and man it was rough. The first three nights I got virtually no sleep. My brain was wired! The upside was that the brain fog had lifted and my motivation levels were right up. Unfortunately so was my blood pressure too, which went from normal to type 2 hypertension. And then the vivid disturbing dreams started. On day 11 I had a tiny bit of weed and wow what a high. Like how it used to be when I first started vaping. Only needed like a 10th of what I was using before for the same intensity. I'm now trying to ween myself off daily use and just keep it to once or twice a week. I bought some CBD powder recently and that has helped a lot with the insomnia, the unpleasant dreams and keeping the body chilled and the blood pressure down so I highly recommend you use CBD to help you through it.
I have real problems getting to sleep if I'm on a break and that's usually the hardest part. CBD flower definitely helps with that for me, it won't get you stoned but can help to chill you out and calm the mind a bit. Doesn't seem to work for everyone but worth a go IMO.
My last break was the end of September 22 (now march23). I never intended on using daily but a combo of work and life challenges meant I started to rely on a daily smoke, vape or cookie (sometimes all 3) to get me to sleep.
A new job meant I had an unexpected 3 weeks off. I enjoyed the first 2 but wanted to have a clear head so decided a break was in order. I reduced my intake over a few days but still had issues with lack of sleep and the sweats- I proper stank in the mornings! Some Nytol have helped with the sleep and tonight will be night 4 without. Sleep is still not great but manageable. I’ll get to the end of the week and reward with a smoke on Friday.
I remember I made the mistake of hitting a vape cart after my last break. One hit and I had to lay down for 20 minutes!! Think I’ll stick to bud this time!!

Reading your experience makes me realise what an addictive drug THC really is.
Taking a t-break is a bit like a smack head going through hell after stopping heroin just to addict themselves again once they have 'Kicked it's crazy if you ask me. Once you get free I would probably stay free for a long time if I was you

Start mix in cbd to at least a 1:1 ratio. Then just one or to hits before bed for a couple of weeks. Then quit and the first night take some drowsy anti histamines . Then take another hit or two after four nights before quitting for however ever long you want to. This is a good taper imo
a distillate vape each week keeps you sleeping, keeps the sweats away, and will give you a decent 'buzz', it's very hard to describe, if you hit it hard.
Going full cold turkey isn't pleasant, after a few days you sweat heard and then your sleep gets screwed.

is it the lack of weed that makes me sweat all night long every time I travel for work? Shit, I just thought they all had the heating up too high!
I'm on a t break at the mo and have been for about 1/2 months so far. I'm resetting my tolerance ready for Glasto!!
My personal advice/tips:
Cold turkey. You literally need no THC to reset the receptors. THC can be in your system for up to 3 months, so for a proper reset, it's 2/3 months of no THC. You will see and feel the benefits this way.
Depending on why you are using THC might determine how to deal with the break. For example, I used to help sleep and to chill the mind of overthinking so for me, getting the natural sleep cycle back was the 'issue'. The overthinking wasn't as tough. The clearer head actually helps. Too long as a daily smoker can reduce the benefit of the chilled head that weed gives and you can end up just overthinking whilst still consuming. Motivation is zapped as a daily consumer too.
Sleep - to get that natural cycle back, go to bed and wake up at the same time everyday, even if you're on a day off from work, you get up at the same time, my wake time is 08:30. The first week or 2 I had broken, interrupted sleep which left me tired at 08:30. Tough shit, I still got up (no naps in the afternoon as that can make getting to sleep at night even worse. If you must nap, do it before 3pm). This cycle comes back pretty quickly, it's not forever. You WILL get vivid dreams BECAUSE when you go to bed stoned, you are going to bed sedated essentially and you will not get your natural REM sleep cycles. This is when we process the days activities, create memories (if you smoke daily and tend to forget things, this is why), have dreams. Your brain will have a back log, if you like, of REM sleep cycles that it's been trying to give you so when you stop going to bed sedated, this back log just goes mad and you get your dreams. This settles down when your cycle comes back.
Your entire feeling/emotions/attitude etc improves the longer you stay THC free. After a couple of weeks you're pretty much back to natural cycles and then it's straight forward. Generally.
Celebrate the little wins. This helps a positive outlook. The money you saved for example, the clearer head, the motivation for anything coming back etc etc it's all for the greater good.
I'm getting back to a irregular smoking habbit because I want that stoned/couch lock feeling again, and that will only happen with irregular smoking, not daily smoking. Too much of a good thing can be a bad thing.
CBD can help, but our bodies are amazing things, and will adapt.
Irregular smoking will give you the benefits at a higher degree. Regular smoking sees these benefits slowly degrade.
T breaks are a good thing, not a bad thing. It's the mental attitude that helps succeed.

I re-vape already vaped bud at a higher temperature. It’s enough to ward off night sweats and crazy dreams whilst still reducing your tolerance significantly.
1) just buy three holy grail v3..usually three are enough
2) running early morning everyday

Has anyone made their own vape juice with this distillate..? Can it be vaped as it is...?
Also, could it be mixed with VG, to weaken it down a bit..? Thanks.

2ml D9 Distillate
0.5 ml DIY Vape Flavouring
0.5ml VJ Mix
3 x CCELL Pro
1 x Syringe & Blunt needle
I make disposables this way. 3 1ml vapes. You can use carts but I like the CCELL pro as it is had a pre heat function and gives a super good draw.
You can find VJ Mix online, it contains the stuff that stops it separating from conventional vape juice, and the flavour is just to get rid of the plastic taste.
People have other methods but this works for me, it tastes good and doesn’t blow your tits off. Perfect for vaping when you are out and about and don’t want to disappear into a vortex.

Thanks for your help mate. I've ordered the pre-mixed ones now, so I don't have to mess around & potentially ruin a decent distillate. I've kept a record of this tho, in case I decide to try at some point....👍
Hey dude, I'm a noob here and I'm looking for some pre mixed too. Can you help with which you went for?
The pre-mixed is bang on dude, you'll enjoy it.
Ye if you don;'t enjoy the terpy taste, worth trying out the other mix with some normal vape flavouring.
EJ Mix have a youtube video showing you exactly how to do it too.

You can vape it pure if you use good quality carts like ccells but as oldmaned says it is very thick and doesn't taste great so we would recommend mixing with around 5% terpenes. Thats the ratio we use in our carts :)
Not 'around 5%' - 5% MAXIMUM - Any amount higher than 5% can cause the mixture to become carcinogenic depending on what terpenes you use. Various terpenes in higher concentrations are dangerous - and they definitely shouldn't be added to a joint by opening the cart/putting it on paper - super dangerous if you don't know the source of the terpenes.
How do you mix it or do you just add the terps to the cart at the same time? or do you mix it into a larger syringe first or something like that?
Great stuff. Hoping to get BTC sorted over the weekend & will be back for some of this. 👍
Distillate can be vaped as it is however it's tricky to use without any diluents due to it being so viscous. It also has a plastic-like taste when vaped in its own which isn't great.
Adding terpenes will thin it out which makes it easier to make up vape carts and they also add flavour. If you get the expensive cannabis-derived terp extracts then they can also add an extra dimension to the high, although they may reduce the stealth factor slightly cos some of them can smell a bit (or so I've been told... 🙄).
I've used PG-based ejuice flavourings before with it before which works fine, so I imagine VG will work too. It does make the resulting mix much less viscous so I've never added more than a few drops per ml of distillate; I use the CCell style carts which are designed for distillates and seem to burn out really quickly if the mix is diluted too much. VG is much thicker than PG though so may not be as much of an issue.
I reckon you could add more PG/VG and have a lower strength juice which is much more fluid and could be used in standard vape tanks. Just make sure it's mixed properly and it should be fine.

Thanks for all that. Never thought of adding terpenes, so that's something to consider.
I'm thinking of some carts strong for at home & some weaker for outdoors.
It'll be fun experimenting anyway....👍

Hello mate, VG does not mix with distillate the same way that PG does. You cannot add VG to PG when distillate has been mixed with it, it will pool on the top.
Also, using terps can be dangerous if you use too much, that's why any good manufacturer/distributor will advise a maximum of 5% terps - this is because various terps used in higher concentrations can be carcinogenic (cancer causing) especially 'natural' terps, aka botanical terps/plant derived.

Get some shatter/badder/diamonds and dump it in a cartridge.
You will be where you want to be before you know it.
You will be where you want to be before you know it.
You need to decarb/winterize extracts before they'll go in a cart, except for good quality shatter. To make our carts we have to vacuum seal our extract so no terps escape, then we decarb for 2h.
It gets me high.
I’m happy.
They go in just fine.
Anything that can penetrate my other meds is doing fine-believe me.

And your coil doesn't burn out half way down a 0.5ml cart...? Very surprising.
😂 Steady on mate, that combination would send me to Saturn. I think I'll stay on Earth (just about) with the vapes themselves.
Mind you, this is great stuff. The full strength ones are perfect for gettin baked & the half strength mixes I've done, are brill for outdoors etc.
Excellent value....👍

I made up 5 carts with this vendors D9.
Bought carts on Amazon Prime.
You will deffo need to source a blunt needle to fill them.
I used a hair straighener to heat the syringe, then filled up cart as neat as possible, then heated cart a little to get distillate to sink, then topped up.
Taste wise, its a bit synthetic and metallic by itself, but rips your loaf off!
Best used with a battery that has a preheat setting, first few toots are a bit weak, but once things get warmed up a little, its sooper!
Go easy to start, as its a creeper!

I've done it with this distillate as is. Not having terpenes does make this an ideal stealth way of getting high. To the point that I would say there's probably no aromatic evidence at all. The flavour of the terpeneless version is what I would describe as 'meh'.

Was just going to say almost all the above :) (have now discovered The Fallen thanks to pollypuff!)
I've tried the Druids buds and they were amazing. Sassy's too, they were so smooth and well grown. Both were special. Haven't tried any of the others yet but looking forward to - I've heard great things about all of them.
Def ❤️ the LB Growers. Been keeping a list :)

I've bought from the druids once before and was blown away by their service. The most friendliest and generous vendors I've dealt with.
Absolutely - lovely people, brilliant service :) Sassy was fantastic too, a real gent.
Most of them, I keep missing Sassy Buds cos it’s gone in the blink of an eye! Always good and always honest to the descriptions. These guys are enthusiasts who know exactly what they are doing. You just need to be quick- obviously they only appear when they have a harvest and when it’s gone it’s gone!
Cheers mate, I know from buying from druids how it is. I was very lucky to get anything from them as they sold out so quick.
Both have been mention but can definitely vouch for
- KiG
- UK Cannafarm
Two excellent growers who clearly care about their products. It's means a lot and is appreciated

BigRoo
From There to Here: A Cannabis Ramble.
The Beginning
When I started smoking pot, the UK options were various types of commercial hash or basic landrace weeds.
The mainstay hash was usually a Rocky which I believe was nicknamed from Moroccan and was a heat n crumble hash. Often we'd get a Slate which as per the name came in thin slabs which fluffed up when heated and crumbled - anyone know what the origin of that was? Squidgy Black of various but often low grades would often be available. We'd usually get red seal but gold seal and other stamps did turn up. It'd roll into snakes. Plus we'd get other basic, and often poor quality, hashes with some variations like soap bar or double zero. Often you'd find hash cut with something unpleasant like henna or plastic. Although equally you'd sometimes get a lovely treat like a temple ball.
Weed tended to be Thai sticks or similar dry stuff with more seeds and sticks in it than weed. I'd hear about sensimelia but I didn't ever see any in my town. It was all pretty basic.
This was universally true across life in that period. Channel 4 was brand new and edgy and digital watches still seemed like a pretty neat idea. It was a simpler time. You couldn't even buy fancy long rizla at Tesco.
Original 90s Hash
Honestly, if you bought the cheapest rock solid hash on LB, wrapped it in plastic, smashed it up with a hammer, then stuck it back together so the plastic was on the inside, you'd be a long way towards creating an authentic 90s hash. I don't recommend it but the option is there if you'd like to experience it. I'm hoping some old stoners will confirm to the younglings that I'm not making this up.
The Dam
During my first trip to Amsterdam my eyes were opened to a new world of cannabis. Which was ironic considering they were half shut for much of the trip. I think many of us brought back a piece of Dam with us (quite literally in my case) and the sharing of those experiences seemed to progress everything forwards. We wanted to be more Dutch.
I loved the weed out there of course but it was more than that. It was the open and tolerant culture that allowed it all to happen that really hit home for me.
Slow Progress
Although the four channel options on TV and digital watches seeming a pretty neat idea persisted for some time, we gradually got better at growing weed here until we reach the point today where we're comparable to much of the rest of the world - and now smart watches seem like a pretty neat idea instead of the digital ones.
In between then and now I've had a wide range of oddly grown weed and lack of flavours. Even as we made a bit of progression, for long periods, everyone would seem to have the same grow.
It'd be cheese, then blue cheese, with lemon haze phases, then stardawg. Variety, as a concept, seemed to take a while to bed in. There were of course highlights and exceptions but the mainstay weed was very samey for years - at least locally - and definitely below the quality and variety abroad. This period developed my loathing of lemon haze. I've simply had it one too many times.
LB Quality
Now, all these years later, I'm ordering high quality buds delivered to my door from a menu of a thousand products. The difference in the cannabis now to then is almost immeasurable.
We've got strong, tasty and exotic weed with new strains on a regular basis. We've got fresh frozen hashes and powerful extracts. We've got vapes and dab pens. We have clean D9 edibles and decarb products. It's a golden age of cannabis consumption with a bigger crowd of us than ever before. I'm excited by it - by all you loons in the LB community.
While attitudes have certainly progressed, we're still a wee bit behind when compared to the tolerant attitude to cannabis use we're seeing in the US and parts of Europe.
Channel 4 Cannabis Night
The afore mentioned Channel 4 once did a cannabis night back when they were still keen to be edgy. All night they showed a stream of cannabis TV shows which sent shockwaves through the mainstream UK of the time but was of course dynamite viewing for my generation. It felt like part of a culture shift. A line in the sand between the stagnant and repressed old folks versus the new, dynamic and hedonistic youth.
In one of the programmes it showed how a legal cannabis future might look. I remember that it showed designer prerolls in professional looking cigarette looking packets. Funnily enough even our cigarette packets don't look like that any more! It'd be an interesting clip to watch again actually.
As a 80s/90s stoner I don't think I'd have predicted how the cannabis market looks now. Firstly the sweetshop flavour names and youth-styled graphics on the packs are a naming convention and style that's a world beyond stuff like skunk and white widow. But also the products available expanded far further than I could ever have imagined. It all leaves me as wide eyed as Charlie was stepping foot into the chocolate factory.
I don't know where we go from here but it'll be fun to find out. I hope the UK will ultimately find a more tolerant and legal status for our favourite plant just like many of our friends abroad have.
Thanks
As always, thanks for reading my topic, I hope it was informative and if not I hope it was entertaining in some way.
I Stole it.
And yes, for the astute Douglas Adams fans, I did steal one of his lines for this piece. Twice in fact - to try and get good value from it. My grandma would be proud.
When I started smoking pot, the UK options were various types of commercial hash or basic landrace weeds.
The mainstay hash was usually a Rocky which I believe was nicknamed from Moroccan and was a heat n crumble hash. Often we'd get a Slate which as per the name came in thin slabs which fluffed up when heated and crumbled - anyone know what the origin of that was? Squidgy Black of various but often low grades would often be available. We'd usually get red seal but gold seal and other stamps did turn up. It'd roll into snakes. Plus we'd get other basic, and often poor quality, hashes with some variations like soap bar or double zero. Often you'd find hash cut with something unpleasant like henna or plastic. Although equally you'd sometimes get a lovely treat like a temple ball.
Weed tended to be Thai sticks or similar dry stuff with more seeds and sticks in it than weed. I'd hear about sensimelia but I didn't ever see any in my town. It was all pretty basic.
This was universally true across life in that period. Channel 4 was brand new and edgy and digital watches still seemed like a pretty neat idea. It was a simpler time. You couldn't even buy fancy long rizla at Tesco.
Original 90s Hash
Honestly, if you bought the cheapest rock solid hash on LB, wrapped it in plastic, smashed it up with a hammer, then stuck it back together so the plastic was on the inside, you'd be a long way towards creating an authentic 90s hash. I don't recommend it but the option is there if you'd like to experience it. I'm hoping some old stoners will confirm to the younglings that I'm not making this up.
The Dam
During my first trip to Amsterdam my eyes were opened to a new world of cannabis. Which was ironic considering they were half shut for much of the trip. I think many of us brought back a piece of Dam with us (quite literally in my case) and the sharing of those experiences seemed to progress everything forwards. We wanted to be more Dutch.
I loved the weed out there of course but it was more than that. It was the open and tolerant culture that allowed it all to happen that really hit home for me.
Slow Progress
Although the four channel options on TV and digital watches seeming a pretty neat idea persisted for some time, we gradually got better at growing weed here until we reach the point today where we're comparable to much of the rest of the world - and now smart watches seem like a pretty neat idea instead of the digital ones.
In between then and now I've had a wide range of oddly grown weed and lack of flavours. Even as we made a bit of progression, for long periods, everyone would seem to have the same grow.
It'd be cheese, then blue cheese, with lemon haze phases, then stardawg. Variety, as a concept, seemed to take a while to bed in. There were of course highlights and exceptions but the mainstay weed was very samey for years - at least locally - and definitely below the quality and variety abroad. This period developed my loathing of lemon haze. I've simply had it one too many times.

Oh 😯 Man thanks for sharing 😁🙏 90s hash was spot on review 😄😂 wouldn't come back to it but such a ride 😉 dude 😎
Thanks man. I buy a bit of old school hash from time to time. I've currently got gold seal from green cat. Lovely stuff. Much better than back in the day but still got the nostalgic flavour. Best of both worlds!
I've been seeing a few posts about the gold seal creating a bit of nostalgia and was wondering if the high was reminiscent of old school hash too and not just the smell and taste.
It's not going to blow your mind the same way that a cold cured jungle boys or barz LA would of course but it's a decent stone. Arguably much nicer than back in the day. I've been rolling it with a cheapie weed.
Douglas loved a good digital watch
Can confirm spent the 90's.picking plastic out of soap bar
And when "smells of diesel" ment shipped in lorry fuel tanks

That diesel ref made me laugh man. People too often look back at the past with a rose tinted view. Lots of it was shit.
Since joining LB, your New Year's topic was the first i read and I must say it isn't going to be the last 😆
Always a great read your topics!
Thanks BigRoo!

Thanks man. I've noticed your shop has weed flying out by the looks of it and some great reviews. I'll look forward to watching you grow and I'll have to sample your menu at some point.
Great post, Roo - definitely takes me back. My local plug had some very mediocre squidgy black for ages in the mid-90's and couldn't seem to get anything else. I was actually excited when he told me there was some soapbar on the way.
I remember the first time I got some good homegrown too, it was a revelation. Silver Haze, knocked my socks off with half a j.
I still have a soft spot for hash, maybe because it's all I could get for so long, but there are so many more choices now as you say. I do love a nice bit of clean blonde 'pollen' hash though, can't beat that for a nostalgic daytime smoke. 🫠

Thanks man. I mostly smoke weed but I'm very partial to a hash smoke for a bit of variety. I still often buy commercial or fancy hash and I'm fascinated with the process of making it. I favour the dark squidgy stuff now - the opposite to 90s Roo. I'll have to do another hash run and write up at some point.
Great read mate took me right back, "Pot Night" on channel 4 most of it is on YouTube if you need a rabbit hole to fall down. I remember watching it all and then thinking, why is this illegal 🤔 30 years later and I still don't have a reasonable answer.
Picking plastic out of the hash was just part of the process of skinning up, I don't miss that.
We had slate bars that would split like slate stone does, we also had some flat pressed hash that was called slate but didn't split like slate stone and smoked like rocky.
Who knows where we go from here as far as progress but I can imagine if I had seen a rosin press and had a dab of hash rosin in the 90's, my mind would have literally been blown🤯.

Thanks man. I'll have to have a look through YouTube one night and relive it. I can remember watching it at the time and it felt like potheads were going mainstream. Big enough for TV!
While I definitely enjoy modern products I do often have nostalgia smokes. Currently I have the gold seal from green cat that's genuinely one of my favourite current lb products. It's not that strong although it is decent. But it's that old distinct flavour that I've been loving rolled up with some weed. I'm going to buy more with my next order.
I've just ordered some hash rosin for my dab pen. It's a world away from picking plastic out of hash!

Thanks man. I guess the legalisation in the US has taken the lead on how it looks. I quite like the sweetshop names and cheeky packaging - I just didn't see it coming.
Your right it’s quite appealing as a consumer rather than having clinical packaging like that of medical marijuana from Canada / Cali just blew it all up
Only concern is attraction to young people who should spend more time studying and less time smoking
Only concern is attraction to young people who should spend more time studying and less time smoking
Aye. That's a fair point. I don't think anyone wants the youngsters future going up in a puff of smoke. I believe that statistically speaking, since legalisation in the US, the main group of people to increase smoking pot have been an older generation. And it looks like many either replace or supplement other pain or stress meds. So I'm not sure that in a real world situation the candy floss marketing has drawn kids in. But it's fair to say it's the exact sort of thing that's asking for more trouble than it's probably worth.
Your right actually kids will be kids and they’re will always be a bunch of them who want to try things whether cigarette packaging is in colour or not. Good bit of sociology and psychology convo here
Very interesting read mate, thanks for sharing. It has many many similarities to my smoking journey.... your weed and hash descriptions are spot on!! Amsterdam when I was 18 (in my early 50's now!) was unreal, I can remember my 1st visit like it was yesterday. Not been for about 10 years now. Cheers mate
Thanks man. I'm thinking about heading out again as a lot has changed since my last visit. I wonder if I'd still know my way round.
How did you smoke your hash in the 90's ? We used 3L bottles for buckets also home made bongs from drain pipes and a socket for the gauze no expenes spared.
I wrote about hotknives and buckets a while back - linked. We used to make coke can pipes and leaky bongs from bottles. I've got a nice glass pipe and a bong tucked away. I might dig them out. Not tried them out for years.
Ah man, can relate to all you’ve said apart from the Dam - missed out on that experience regrettably. 90’s hash with bits of plastic/cellophane - tick. Channel 4 night - tick. Seems daft now but as you say me and a few mates felt all subversive and excited to be watching WEED on TV? Oh yeah! I remember it had a few US PSA clips from the 60/70’s? Something along the lines of: “Remember kids, too much pot and you risk wasting the most precious time of your life” said in a long drawn out way by the long haired, half eyes closed, rictus grinned, stoned to the rafters, sideburned youth. Without any irony!
The attached image is copy of Face magazine from 93. Unlike prevalence nowadays any stories/pictures of weed had to come from magazines. Oh the innocence!

The channel 4 night felt definitive. I bet it influenced all sorts of folk who went on to be the movers and shakers of the cannabis market. I first went to Dam in 1989 I think as a teenager. It still had the gilder so everything was super cheap due to exchange rate. It was all about the skunk weed back then and you'd get a green skuff hash. I keep thinking about heading out again to see how it's changed.
Back in the 90's I worked with Heineken and we would go out to the Dam regularly on business. On the very first trip they put the meeting back to the afternoon so to kill time we ventured into a cafe for a brownie and coffee. On arrival at the brewery they decided to orientate us by putting us on their famous London red double decker bus that they used for tourists. Off our noodles this quickly became the most surreal of experiences. I was convinced I wasn't in the Dam at all and that I was on my way to school (having taken a red bus twice a day back then). The fact that I was wearing a collar and tie reinforced this for me. A colleague was freaking out because he couldn't work out why he was so high up (top deck) and kept asking if he was floating or flying? Another was convinced he ws somehow going to fall off and was gripping the seat edges so tightly I still remember how white his knuckles were!
Those were the days!!
Those were the days!!
There's nothing like your first visit to Dam. I guess the quality gap is no longer the same so tourists don't experience it the same. On my first trip I remember it was a super busy street on the way to the coffee shop. I was battling my way through crowds Couple of hours later I bowled out and after walking a short way I became aware I had the middle of the street to myself. Everyone was loitering at the sides. Then I realised it was absolutely pelting it down with rain. I was the only person stupid enough not to realise and stand in the middle of it completely oblivious. I then had to find my hotel, at which point I was soaked through and realised how lost I was. But I didn't want anyone to know I was lost so I carried on walking confidently like I knew where I was going because that made sense to me.
Man, the Dam! Very early 2000's for me and three mates: within an hour of arriving, buying Purple Haze, Crystal and Afghan Black from the booth at the front of a dark and narrow bar, the name of which I forgot, forgive me, because a further hour later I was flat on my arse outside said establishment after learning that a 'cocktail' of the three in one joint is not a viable trip! 'Whitey' anyone? God, yes no please, never again, my first and my hardest!
But Day 2 and we slowed our pace: this time, in the basement room of one of the three Bulldog cafes at the time, my mind expanded to discover that I was able to suddenly understand Dutch-dubbed Con Air playing on the TV! I didn't even need the English subtitles. Or were they dutch subs and English language? Either way, I was now fully native.
And then, oh my God, then, magic mushrooms from a lovely young lady in The Greenhouse Effect (I think?), subsequently rolling around the street in giggling fits and recognising other fellow magic people, voodoo people, doing the same amongst the straight shadows of normal people. Finishing the night watching the harlequin diamonds race across our hostel room ceiling, drifting off to sleep at the edge of the universe.
Fuck, good times! Three long days melding into the greatest weekend of my young life.

I've been to Dam quite a few times but not for years. You find yourself looking for English folk on their first day. Always go wild like a kid in a sweet shop only to find themselves ten minutes later with a thousand yard stare and slowly sinking into the table. You laugh but not mockingly because you know you were once them. You're laughing at yourself. "I did that on day one"
It's lost on the current generation as they just get good weed anyway. The quality leap between here and Dam is no longer so big.

I wish I could've visited again in the interim years, especially since I've learnt Dam is a culturally rich place with many other attractions too.
But yes, this generation, have to pity them in many ways, 'they don't know they're born!' but also, many other things have gotten worse. So the good weed is consolation. Speaking of which, I'm about to indulge in my Skywalker OG from Green Cat for the first time (and first time in about 15 years) since receiving it earlier this week. I'm WFH tomorrow so if I pass out on the sofa as I expect, I'm not expected anywhere tomorrow. Going to start with the smallest of joints. (...it looks like a toothpick, maan...').
Incidentally, this convo and you mentioning Ch4's Pot Night got me watching it on YouTube earlier - really good! It makes you want to go again. I'd missed it first time round in '95 - I was still a good boy in high school back then!
But wish me luck on my trip, hope I land back down safely.

Skywalker OG is a solid choice. GC had one batch that wasn't the full jedi but generally they have one that's strong with the force. I've bought it many times. It's one of my favourite strains as it leans heavily on the blueberry flavour but with a much more significant stone.
I keep meaning to dig into the pot night on YouTube to see what memories it brings back. I remember staying up all night at the time. It created a wave of change here.

Am I just old and cynical or was TV just a bit edgier back in the 90's. Or have we just seen it all now as middle-aged men?Watching Pot Night threw up another Dispatches video about mail order weed, I've got to watch that too, I might learn a thing or two, lol!
But anyway, I think I'm going to have to write a little review for GC and that Skywalker - these are the buds you are looking for! You're going to laugh at how low my tolerance is but I guaged it perfectly: I used about half the size of the nail of my little finger, so imagine about a 5mm bud, in a regular roll up with a filter. And it came on slow, didn't knock me off my feet. Felt it in my face first, which surprised me for an indi dom, but then slowly imbued the rest of my limbs and made me lie down. Mellow but firm stone, with merely a flash of anxiety at the start, just a second or two but then it went and I was chill.
For Skywalker itself as a flower, I'm no expert or cultured connoisseur like yourself, far from it but that musty, mossy, mild earthy smell isn't my favourite but I like that it isn't overpowering and pungent, not acrid. I'm surprised to hear you describe it as blueberry cos I wouldn't have made that association. That said, my only recent comparison is some THCa Gelato I bought and was disappointed by before discovering Little Biggy. I loved the 'candy' smell of it, and had really high hopes but utterly disappointed to learn what 'medicinal' cannabis was, lol!
Getting back to the Skywalker, I'm tempted to try it in a bong but worried I'm going to get too much of a hit. I'm curious to try it neat and filtered like that, to really taste it, as opposed to in a joint with tobacco. Something interesting that someone said on one of the Pot Night videos was that tobacco is 'male' and weed is 'female' and so seems contradictory to mix the two, but I don't know if there's further evidence and a basis for that opinion.
I also remember when watching City of God for the first time and being amazed at them rolling fat blunts with just pure bud, but since learned a lot of people smoke it 'neat' like that. I know I won't be trying that but realise now when reading a lot of reviews that many are using it like that and hence the descriptions of 'taste'.
I'm also curious to try a sativa now, and see if and how a head high helps creativity - I want to do some writing and so am naturally curious to see if it does 'enlighten'. Feel free to drop me a recommendation for a good sativa, I'd be interested to hear your experience and thoughts.

It's possibly the kush side overriding it in your batch. I roll with a fair amount in each Spliff I guess. My tolerance is pretty high but you don't have to go far on LB to find people with higher tolerance than me. Just be you man it's not a race.
Sativa is a mixed bag for me. Certain hazes make me ansy so I tend to avoid them. I prefer Indica or hybrid weed generally speaking. But yes a strong sativa will tend to deliver both a more immediate high and it be much more cerebral. I guess it depends on your personality type how much you want to ride that out. For me, I prefer the slower chilled buzz from an Indica or hybrid as it demands less from me. But saying all that I also like making strong RSO cookies which absolutely blow your mind and leave you pacing around the garden at 3am.

Haha, nah, I can do without the pacing manically! I knew I was going to be indica-leaning, but I'm just curious about sat, cos reading a lot of descriptions on Leafly, its always the sat's that are described as encouraging creativity, but if you know of an indi that does the same, give me a shout.
I guess the more cerebrally manic high of a sativa is considered to encourage creativity more than the lazy kickback high of an indica. I'm honestly not sure if I have a creativity sparking weed preference though. I suppose if anything I'm calming the already manic nature of my mind. So maybe it's all down to your starting point as to what will work best for you.
Fair enough man, I appreciate your honesty brother. I'll reading and researching and give something a go that sounds enticing. I'll be sure to let you know how it goes, but for now, I've plenty of SOG to keep me busy!
I've not had the sog for a while. Blue Nerds is ticking the blue box for me currently. Hope you find what you're looking for man.
Lovely reading mate. I'd saved this for Sunday night. I started in the early nineties, bad hash still big then. Stitching you mate up with the biggest bowl, though bucket or bottle bag. Now I've just finished yoga and taken some tincture. Spend the night topping up with vape cart made from top extract. The world has changed alright, and it seems I've become a cunt.
Thank you for the read big man.
Cheers G

I just stumbled onto this guide of cannabis types from 1990-1997. We were still 2/3 hash smokers. The document lists out the hash and weed available.

Seller refund after item marked sent
Hi I tried a new seller on here. They marked my order as sent but did not send it. He confirmed on chat that he had not sent it as he had not received the funds from LB. Not sure he understood escrow. Is there a way the seller can cancel the order and issue a refund. Would any of the biggas know if this can be done. I've raised a dispute but would rather not go this way as it effects my rep The seller seems decent enough.
I don't know whether the vendor can retract the 'sent' status and then cancel the order but I'm pretty sure they can issue a refund regardless. The only problem is that it sounds like they set up shop on here with not enough understanding of how the site works so they maybe won't actually know how to process a refund from their side, even if they're willing to do it.
Easiest solution would be for them just to dispatch the order that you paid for but if you're not happy with that route then you could try messaging Refund Borg for advice. If the vendor is genuinely willing to help then they could ask for advice from the borgs and other vendors via the Seller's Arms pages.
If all else fails then just let the dispute run and see what happens. Good luck anyway. 👍

Thanks, I would prefer the herb but I don't think he's comfortable sending whilst he's not got the funds from lb. I will share this with him.
This is a fundamental misunderstanding of how LB works. It's an escrow system: he gets his money when you have your goods and are satisfied.
There should be a way for them to initiate a refund then, even if it's been marked as sent. I'm guessing that happens sometimes with cross-border deliveries that get seized by customs so there are probably some vendors and/or Biggas here with experience of that.
That said, if this is a new vendor who is accepting orders and marking them as sent but not dispatching the items due to not understanding escrow then they'll start amassing disputes and it's only a matter of time before they're shut down by admin. From what I've read on here, this would result in you getting a full refund and the dispute wouldn't count against you.
If the vendor is genuine then they'll hopefully find the reassurance they need to start shipping or at least find out how to refund you.

Why are u scoring B4 it has even arrived?
The buyer has not received there purchase but have chosen to mark score.
Please can you explain why it is am 8/10, as it does not help me or other real biggaz with no comments especially when they have not received item in the first place as it is physically impossible.
I really do not care about the algorithm what I care about is the truth and to be scored fairly on my how well I do my job and how my green is.
Please try harder this blatant trickery is weak.

Hi Dopey - just FYI, the new review system now allows you to leave the 'days to arrive' box blank. If you do that, it appears without any timescale so there's a good chance that's what happened with your review, not someone reviewing before they've received the item to try and sabotage you. You'll notice it happens with 10/10 reviews as well.
I've just amended a review I left a few days ago for another vendor and it allowed me to remove the time to arrive and then save it again. It now shows the same as your screenshot.
Interestingly, it's also reverted to showing 'reviewed 0 days ago' when I first left the review a few days ago so looks like that resets if any edits are made.

Sorry Dopey but you're wrong. O days means reviewed today, 1 day means yesterday. I left a review today for YNM, just checked it and it shows 0 days.
Both reviews that have marked a 8/10 with no explanation and in the most recent case no bud have all got less than a handful of buys 🤔
I am still waiting on an out and out lie by stewie11 who claimed to have brought Sherbanger over 10 days ago now even though it was not listed
Is lying the new normal now???
Is this the state of affairs in this country now that this toxic weak lying underhand movement is allowed to go unchallenged???
This country and the whole of Europe s turning into a swamp of 💩 and needs calling out at every turn more and more and it will inevitably unite us all 🙏
Look at the state of France, Germany, Sweden, Spain, Belgium, Ireland and and Italy now!! And the backward regime in the UK the most incompetent nation hating government that has ever served its people!!!!
We can find 100 million in a flash for overseas aid but can’t keep our pensioners warm, what a fucking disgrace and shameful government that betrays us at every turn!!
All in the hands of Socialist with exception of Italy until just recently and WEF and all falling apart. The IMF will have to come in and print more money soon WAKE UP FFS BEFORE WE HAVE NOTHING!!!
What a horrible year I have never seen so much hatred and it is reminiscent of 1930’s Germany an utter disgrace and need addressing asap!!
Libtards need to know that they have blood on there hands!
It does not matter what side of the fence you are on right is right and common sense and logic must prevail above all else.

I have lived all over the world and take my views from my own experiences u on the other hand are the one who has been brainwashed into your Marxist ideology and should know this not once has comunisim worked ever. I still remember those haunting pictures of the poor children in those Romania orphanages that where blasted all over our TV sets back in the 90"s.

Because guns, missiles and tanks that are stockpiled and paid for already, won't feed the elderly. I hate the government as much as the next person, but it was the Tories that paid for a whole load of the material being sent to Ukraine. We're not sending money.
Mad batshittery rant, for what? Cos you got scored an 8? Chances are you sold to a noobie.

What fucking tune? The weed is still good, Dopey is still a Dopey cunt, and I've never said otherwise, clown.
If Bin Laden sold good fucking weed, I'd still buy from him, doesn't mean I agree with their politics, you absolute fucking mongoloid.

No buddy because it was scored before it even arrived look at the jpeg above my friend.
I am not a tory either I can't stand politics but when it is effecting everything else to its core I have to speak out.
Over 10 millionaires are leaving the UK this year the enterpeturs are leaving on mass there won't be an economy to buy weed if this carries on.
The only benefits of this are people who are either civil servants or people on the dole that depend on the state for handouts.

Look at the number of days there are none as it has not passed 0 days yet , look at the review beneath it clearly shows days arrived it only does not show days when its 0 days and also the only account with those stats brought yesterday so it has only just arrived around one hour ago not at 6 am when I saw it this morning.
Clearly one of the lot who stalk my page in the early hours drooling over my items lol

Help with psychedelics (TLDR ver: how much should I smoke and how much should I take mushrooms to find a good middle ground)
I love weed, it is my best friend. However I have a bittersweet relationship with it, it helps my anxiety but it exacerbates my low moods, especially in the mornings. I’m trying to implement mushrooms in my life to break up the groggy mornings but I’ve found when I trip, the shrooms exacerbate my anxiety but improve my low moods. When I trip should I stop smoking that day or vice versa? I’m finding it really hard to find a middle ground between the two and just wondered if anyone here has found something that suits them?
For context: I’m in my late 20’s, I fast every day until 4pm and eat relatively well and keep hydrated, I’m busy mon-fri working a full time job but I do dry herb vape in work, I have a healthy relationship at home, I smoke 3-5g a day and half a g of concentrate roughly.
My moods are pretty much solely derived from my drug intake and just want to find that beauty spot and take breaks when I need to but I can’t read the signs. Sorry for rambling on, I’ve just been struggling the past few weeks and it’s hard to get drug advice from my therapist ha

Sounds like we smoke similar amounts of weed per day, and I've been having good results for mild anxiety and depression, and general stress related to work, by microdosing for almost a year now. I just take a Stamets' Stack regime of 0.2g of shrooms, 1g of Lion's Mane and 50mg of flushing Niacin and still smoke just as much. Definitely feel the benefits of this. I've been using RocketDogRonnie for many, many months now and find his products work well for me. Link above.
If you want to trip as a general mood reset then I'd advise about 1.5-2g of shrooms like APE, maybe once a month or so? I'm still not entirely sure how best to fit this into the microdosing regime, but there's a 2 week gap in the regime where you could slot that in, potentially. I always have a joint when I'm waiting to come up, and it works okay for me, usually. My mate gave me some dried Liberty Caps last month and I haven't weighed them yet... They're very straggly.

Happy to send you a weeks worth if you hit me up with a message Harv.
Also have some full spectrum edibles which may not suit a man of your tolerance but might just help take the edge off before sleep if you’re trying a T break.

Yeah I’ll be honest big trips aren’t for me. Just get extremely paranoid. I did get some GT and B+ from ronnie and did quite enjoy the mild effects a lot more instead of these hero strains.
I love to pick libs at this time of the year, again, a great strength for me.
Thanks for the advice Rux, I genuinely appreciate it - taking it on board as we speak and Lion’s Mane currently in my basket

2 of RDR's Santa's Chocs and Flash Gordon in 4K with high quality surround sound makes for an excellent night. Oodie or equivalent garment to make it super cosy.
Just looking up the regime again and it looks like I should at least be doubling the dose of the Niacin, and maybe only take one capsule of the Lion's Mane. I do regularly get the flush effect from the 50mg though, which is apparently the important aspect. Not entirely sure why. Make sure any Niacin you buy is the flushing effect type as there are 2 formulations of it available from various manufacturers.

Aw, my Dad used to go on about Flash! Still got the videos somewhere, ha.
What mg Lions Mane am I looking at? There are 2000 and 4000 primarily. A good point are my vitamins in general to be fair, probably missing out on a few vital ones in the daytime too

Be careful where you buy from. Anything from china is no good. The air quality is so poor you’re likely to be doing more harm than good.
Cotswolds mushrooms are great.
Get some vitamin e and d. If you take nothing else these will give you the most benefit….i think.

Your Dad should have forced you to watch it ever time it was shown on TV... A classical education.
I had one that was (I'm sure) listed as 1000mg and the dose was 2 capsules. No idea why I went with that. Purity, quite possibly? They've changed the packaging and it's 1 dose for 500mg on it now. That's seemingly too much for the Stack dose specifically, but I'm not splitting capsules up. Try to find a lower dose, or just go with the lower one?

“Medicine” ;-)
Thanks for the assist Rux. And thank you to Ronnie for the little taster pack! Had my first capsule yesterday and just found it very difficult to get into a bad mood, couple things had tested me as well. Looking forward to the journey so thanks again Ron!
Special shoutout to THC23 for the flavours 😁 have a good week guys

Any time mate. Yeah, then that works for you it seems. I get exactly that when it's working well. Stressful scenarios are much less so, somehow. Presumably as it's mainly in our brains, and that causes situational reactions. 0.2g seems to be the sweet spot for me, at least. Looks like you may have outdone me on the Christmas stash dude! The other 2 K4B strains are amazing...
Yeah man! Looking forward to looking back in a couple weeks time, I think I’ll notice the benefits a lot more then.
I tried the Yuzu last night, AM4 tonight and the Lemon Peel tomorrow night. Payday next week, might treat myself to a couple more things then knocking it on the head then

Funny you say that because there are 120 1000mg at £25 and 180 2000mg at £9. Like you say, maybe they’re safer and purer. I think I’ll take ronnies advice and try this Cotswolds Mushrooms for the lions mane as they have a couple of different types, their website definitely reassures me. As for the Niacin, there seems to be a few decent options on Amazon
Can I advise you to drink at least 2 liters of pure water, i.e., not tap or mineral, but spring or re-mineralised distilled water. You can re-mineralise using a couple of grains of celtic salt. Just make sure it's genuine celtic salt. Hydration is extremely important and is always overlooked in disease and malaise. Dehydration impacts brain function tremendously yet is ignored by allopathic doctors, who just love to prescribe psychoactives. I suffered mental health problems for years until some research led me in this direction and couldn't believe how something so simple, yet devastatingly effective, cured most of my health problems. Homeostasis cannot be achieved without proper hydration and mineralisation. Peace, love and good luck my friend.
Interesting 👍
I’ve just read ‘Your Body’s Many Cries For Water’ by F.Batmanghelidj MD. Have you read it? I wonder what you think about the chapters on salt supplementation, especially in this ‘low sodium’ age?
(I also just bought some Celtic salt!)😉

Maybe microdosing shrooms is the answer, you wont be taking enough to trip so would avoid triggering the anxiety and will help give you the uplift in your general mood you are looking for, I'm adding a link for Fungal-Cate, its worth shooting her a message, shes proper knowledgeable on this stuff and i'm sure will help you choose the right path.
Also i know someone who struggles with anxiety and they tend to avoid Indicas when smoking as the Sativas dont set it off, could be worth testing the theory for yourself to see if one or the other helps you more.

Nice thanks man! Yeah I only get sativa from my clinic, indica is no good to me. I love my flavours which are naturally indica based but they don’t bother me too much if I moderate it
Thanks for your help mate
Thanks for your help mate
No worries, hope you figure it out, sounds like the Sativa thing is similar for you as it is for my mate.
I really like smaller doses of shrooms in my old age, 1.5 here, 2g there, gives me a couple of hours of nice borderline stuff, a little bit of technicolour, some nice body vibes and gets me into a really nice mind state, it always puts a little spring back in my step too.

Just to note, different strains have different strength. 2g of golden teachers is a strong dose, 2g of liberty caps is a heroic dose.
Research the psilocybin content of your shrooms before whacking 1.5-2g, that is a high dose.

Yeah you are right and its good advice, research everything as much as possible, it's the best way to keep yourself safe.
I should've pointed out if i'm messing with with stronger strains then 1.5 is normally where I land for my little vibe sessions.
Liberty caps though 😵💫💜💚

This possibly isn't the answer you're hoping for but my advice would be to try and dial back a little bit on the smoke. I'd say 5g a day is quite a lot, especially if you work full-time. You must roll big joints! 😂
I used to smoke all day, every day and it ended up being counterproductive. I smoke weed to help with my mental health but when I was doing it all day long, it stopped helping and I noticed my low moods returning much more often. Once I managed to cut down, I noticed a definite improvement in my mindset. I didn't even have to stop smoking every day, it was just about reducing the number of times I smoked each day.
The main thing for me is waiting until later in the day to have my first smoke/vape. If I go at it first thing, I tend to get stuck in a rut for the day and don't really feel the benefit of anything else I smoke that day.
I'd second the idea of microdosing shrooms. If you can do that first thing and avoid smoking until later in the day then you might see a difference.
Hope you manage to find something that works for you anyway.

I smoke around a gram with my vape in work and my joints are about 1.5g in each which I find a nice amount with a brew! But it’s funny you say this, as I am slowly starting to point my finger at the weed being a result of my moods. But I fucking love it. Weird?
Thanks for the support, Ed! I will try microdosing, a little bit more gym/sauna and a few cold showers in the morning! I’d attempt to leave my vape at home and not bring it in but that’s no good for everyone I work with 😂

Me too, I'm late 40s and I've been smoking daily for about 30 years now and still absolutely love it. 🫠
Have you tried distillate vapes for when you're at work? They're really strong so not much required however I find that the lack of full spectrum cannabinoids means I get high but don't get the Indica or Sativa traits. It also means that when I go back to vaping bud, it hits that little bit harder than if I'd been on flower all day.
Good luck anyway mate. 👍

I’ve always got a couple of vapes in the van but I do genuinely prefer using my prescribed stuff, really helps me out I’ll be honest. That’s what I love about dry herb vaping too is when I get back and roll a nice flavour which will be indica dominant, I don’t get anxious because I’ve slowly built up a tolerance throughout the day!
Thanks again Ed
Thanks again Ed
I would recommend taking mushrooms whilest you're in a good head space only.
If you feel hardcore you can try my Natalensis, it's a very strong strain. I found 1g can be very intensly uplifting for at least 4 hours

t break tips?
i'm a dedicated on the daily for decades dude.
now on t-break; day 1 and 2 are pretty easy, residue perhaps. day 3 is hell and i remember this from last time. any advice before i reach for the pipe?

I find that switching to edibles helps. The way you process THC differs between smoking and eating, so a week on edibles will see the smoking hit harder when you start again.
As Blazin said dude, edibles. Apparently the pathways for smoking and edibles/consumed THC are completely different, so you can have edibles, get baked, and then when you start smoking again you should have achieved your desired break.
I've seen your products, what kind of dose would your recommend for someone with an addictive personality, trying to take a t-break?
I know weeds not physically addictive but damn I get really psychologically addicted, after 3 days all I can think of is weed lmao, nasty moods, bad sleep, no energy...
I have always just got through it, mostly cold turkey, but if theres some way I can ease the "pain" without relying on harsher things, I'm open minded

We recommend working with very low doses so you can focus on your daily routine but the dose helps you connect to yourself and your mindset, and creates an open heart space where you'll become more observant of the "why" you get psychologically swayed. It helps connect neurological pathways and in the end you look at everything differently...not only the addiction but every part of your life ;-)
Interesting after reading the other comments, I would have thought since wether edible, vaped or smoked it's still THC so it would all be the same tolerance. I'll have to look into that. Not saying guys are wrong ofc :)
Sadly for me, I have a very high tolerance to edibles (lacking an enzyme or something perhaps) even after t-breaks -150mg for a slight buzz xD So this would never be an option for me lol.
I heard about microdosing shrooms or LSD but haven't tried myself wonder if any biggas have

I saw a video that explained the difference between eating vs smoking/vaping THC. The liver apparently attaches something called a hydroyxl group to the D9 molecules when it processes them which turns them into 11-Hydroxy-THC. It's this new molecule that gets you stoned when eaten which would explain the difference in effects and individual tolerances.

Ah! Thanks for this mate. Going to look into this.
I wonder if like for codeine, where some people possess an enzyme that isn't as efficient at breaking it down (or in rarer cases, more efficient), that there is some people with livers that just suck at that process of converting D9 to 11-Hydroxy.
Cos I've certainly never got baked from edibles even with little to no tolerance to any kind of THC.

Yeah, that would make sense.
I've heard of people that can smoke a half oz a day easy but can't handle 50mg of edibles, and others that don't feel anything no matter how much they eat.

Totally agree with the edibles suggestion. CBD products can help too I found that having a CBD vape to hit before bed was a help to get to sleep. Good luck 👍
If you haven't tried it yet then CBD might be worth a go (just not the weak crap like Holland & Barrett sell). I'm not really into edibles but CBD buds and distillate are really good to vape/smoke and you could make your own edibles from those, and there are high-strength CBD gummies out there too although I've never tried them myself.
I've found that exercise helps . You just have to pick up the pace for a bit , say a week or two . Cardio . It makes you feel good too.
Also a lot of reading .
Then you'll be back stronger ;)

Sausages and black pudding
What is the best black pudding in Scotland and who makes the best sausages?
For me it’s got to be some Stornaway pudding and the butcher up the Barras market for sausages they are amazing 😻 and am cooking some up right now 😎
Jeeze oh! I’ve no been to the Barras since I was a wean. And I’m eligible for a bus pass noo!
I think I’ve been along London Road once since they opened the extension on the M74

Hornigs black pudding for me, so flavoursome and a bit spicy. I live in the North West and don't see why people big up Bury black pudding at all, but I appreciate it's a personal preference. I get Hornigs black pudding imported in bulk, I like it that much
Crombies in Edinburgh do some fine sausages.

I was under the impression you Scots largely preferred fruit pudding!
I have had a number of very good square sausage from different Scottish butchers - no idea of origin I just know it seems to be the best form of sausage.

Charles MacLeod of Stornaway. World famous black pud. You can get it nationwide. Seriously orgasmic with some hand dived Hebridean scallops. ❤️❤️❤️

Well funny you should ask lol,the wife just brought a breakfsst pack from marksz and made Mr a couple of rolls for my brunch and the black pudding and sausage was very flavourful ..time for a long walk now.well wee vape first obvs!
Hate to be the bearer of bad news lads but the best black pudding is to be found in Bury, Greater Manchester.
Come on dazzler got to cook the links first get them nice and brown the slice next along with the black pudding and then the tattie scones then the bacon then the eggs beans in separate pot. big mug of tetleys two sugar and milk bit of brown sauce and hey presto am fucking starving again 😂 😂 got to have a smoke now
Yes I agree IT CREATES ALL SAUCE from back in the day 😋 tattie scone dipped in both amazing 🤩
Great thread :) Sigh, I used to have and love both A LOT many years ago. I had to lose a lot of weight though so I avoided them for years. Now thankfully fitted and healthier I have them very occasionally. White pudding is also very lovely but the best I ever had was from Yorkshire and free range Sausages from Essex.
Never tried Scottish so I’m intrigued….

McCaskies in Wemyss Bay for black pudding. They also do proper smoked bacon, not the liquid smoke stuff.
I'm going to jump to ice cream here, because 10 mins down the road in Largs is Nardini's and their ice cream rocks.

Although I did have an amazing blood sausage with pineapple in Lisbon which was nearly as good.
As for the sausages, are you talking lorne, beef links or pork? I go to two butchers, because one can’t make a decent square sausage, even with a set square and a protractor.
My personal favourite is Buchanan’s of Burnbank, Hamilton beef lorne. Stick that bad boy on a well fired roll with a tattie scone and listen to your arteries close up. Totally worth it!

Well fired roll. I miss those bad boys 😢 that’s what I get for moving to the east coast. The rolls here are just no right. No McGees
Remember when Greg’s did the pure burnt ones 👌

Possibly depends on what you're intending to use it for. If it's for smoking or vaping then I'd say The Spacemen's listing for Dust (linked above) is the best I've had recently. Not really dust at all, small amount of broken buds but mostly whole buds and some quite big ones at that. Amazingly good value.
RealD's Zkittlez shake is also very popular, not had it for a while but used to be great value as well.

Thank you Ed. I have never tried spacemen's before so I will give them a try as well. Cheers mate.
yeah I've tried spacemen's trim recently and it was quiet strong definitely got me blazed! If i remember correctly it was 7grams for under $20 which was great value.
not tried myself but heard rave reviews of RealD's Zkittlez, i think the feedback and ratings speak for themselves. Maybe mixed opinions on this vendor but i haven't had a bad experience with him is LVcannabis, trim is a nice mix of sugarleaf and pop corn and for the price you can't go wrong!
cheers, I will try RealD. The only catch is they stopped selling 14g. I am a bit apprehensive buying bigger bags, given RM is doing the delivery lol. Dont want them doubting the package.
Rd skittles , is probably the best about right now. Anything more Sativa, probably YNM or Hemp lady
All depends on the bag you receive tbh, some are better than others even from the same vendor.
Several vendors sell top trim, I should know it's all I buy.
GreenCat, RealD, JustWeed, Gentlemen Dealers, GreenTeam, Mk2020 and my current favourite is Your Natural Medicine.
2oz of banging Trim for a little over $100 with next day delivery, bargain.
I've personally had a number of issues with LV Cannabis and will never use them again

Cheers MasterC. I think you right it depends on the bag that is sent out that day. MK2020 used to be good so ill try them this time.
LV cannabis seem to be good I've never had an issue with them but this batch of trim is not that good.

What will get actually me stoned?
Sick of buying and trying just to be let down? What's actually strong and will get stoned and put me to sleep? I'm 36 and smoking since I was 15 so my tolerance is high but theres gotta something to get me stoned
Have a go on KIGs RSO. I went a bit heavy on it over the weekend, and it fucked me harder than a coked up horse. Genuinely one of the strongest, anything I've had.
Same happened to me too 😂. Tried a rice grain sized bit of KIGs RSO and it seriously fucked me up.
So I initially came here to recommend RealD's hash, as I'm smoking the Orange Cannoli (with some Banana Kush bud) as I type this. In my experience he's a great vendor and his wares are much better than his banter, depending on which end of the barbs you find yourself on... Link above.
Try Odin’s decarbs, on offer at the moment and great stuff!

Green Cat's Skywalker OG (linked) is also a pleasantly heavy stone for me and a regular in my stash when available. The latest batch is especially tasty and my current go-to vape at bedtime.

Very high quality, and got me very stoned. Would recommend. Not sure of the quality or differences in the different strains as I've only had the one, but there seems to be a lot of variety available with different batches being made.
for weed you got to put up that 36 year old money to get stoned. I buy from pontiff of piff exotics, gentlemen dealers packs, or eddies hashbar. for weed your looking at 90-120$ for 1/8. but its actually worth it. 1/2 joint will get you higher than a whole 1/4 ounce of mediocre shit. pontiff is cheaper but more hit and miss than the 90$ packs but rarely does he miss and its only 65$ 1/8
I tried RSO for the first time the other night and it was overpoweringly strong. My heart was going ten to the dozen. I'm guessing there's a fine line between dosing enough and dosing way too much with this stuff.
I had a syringe of it delivered and it all spilled in the baggy! Vendor is awesome and sent me another. My main concern was being able to dose it correctly, so how does that work if you scrape it off a baggy with your teeth...? Must be a formula to follow.
I'm at the contemplating stage, currently. Had a Hulk Cookie this afternoon and it was too strong to stack some RSO on top now. However I'll try my best not to eat the bag itself. My very best.
Yeah, unless you are the Mighty Mouse it’s very tricky. I loved my initial forays, upped the dose VERY slightly by way of experimenting and regretted it! The answer is FECO- as strong but a much smoother ride. Have a chat with RocketDogRonnie who makes his own🤤
It comes in a syringe (normally) with 1/10ml markers. Half of that is the blob equivalent of a small grain of rice. I went standard grain of rice as a test and it was too much. But I know people (🐰,🐭) who can do the whole 1ml in a single serving 🤯
Wow you'd have to have a massive tolerance to handle 1ml of it, or be someone who likes extreme intensity.
Eddy's Hash Bar makes amazing concentrates (for dabs, etc), when my tolerance got really strong, dabs/vaping was the way to go. it's like a whole new high. Eddy's Special Hash Rosin is my recommendation x
We can offer a cheap sample of RSO. We hope 0.1ml of that will get you going nicely. We will send you 5ml if you order the 1g option on our page.
:)
:)
For me it is extracts that get me the highest. ~A nice Diamonds in sauce or resin/rosin or even an RSO.
I am on full melt from pink leaf at the moment. They totally kicked my ass for the first week smoking them. Also i had some nice diamonds from miconaughts i think it was

Do magic mushrooms strains matter to you?
For me, different strains definitely have different effects but I can't claim to know the science behind it. I've not had a full shroom trip in years…
Do magic mushrooms strains matter to you?
I'm genuinely interesting as a cultivator what people feel about magic mushrooms strains? Do you notice the difference in strains or do you have the opinion that "a cube is a cube"?
What strains do you think customers prefer?
My customers typically ask me for GT, B+ or McKenna... rarely do I get customers ask me for specialist strains. Curious what others think here!

I dunno, I’m told a cubes a cube but I’ve felt a difference between strains.
But it could be psychological and my mindset before starting a trip.
With Golden Teachers I feel like the mushroom is teaching me something about myself.
With Mazaptec I see patterns that you normally see in Aztec art, but same again that could be because I associate the shroom with Central America.
B+ makes things look like a cartoon- I don’t know what that’s about 🤷🏻♂️

For me, different strains definitely have different effects but I can't claim to know the science behind it. I've not had a full shroom trip in years but microdose frequently and I've noticed differences in the effects as well as the strength/potency.
GTs are solid and reliable, 200mg of dried shrooms and I'm good to go. Steady, consistent and uplifting buzz which really helps when I'm in a low mood or stressed.
I've also had APE and APE reverts, both of which were noticeably more potent (only needed about half as much) but with the same type of effects as GTs.
I then had some Trinity Caps which were absolutely nuts. Tried going as low as 50mg and it was still too much. Very different experience too, like an emotional rollercoaster which was sometimes kinda fun in a way but also very unpredictable and not great for work days!
As already noted, it's quite likely an entourage effect from other compounds in addition to the psilocybin, similar to the way different strains of weed have different effects even though the THC is just the same chemically-speaking.

This answer speaks to me a lot, espeically regarding the potency. Pretty much sums up much of my opinion on potency; as someone who microdoses GT's myself, I find them and B+ most solid reliable. For me personally, 200-250mg is perfect, but if it's a spicy culture, 250mg can have be feeling a bit too energised. APE's seem reliable too, but I've had some which have sent me.
Entourage with weed edibles is a journey, for sure!

I hear alot about Penis Envy (Albino) ones.... These are very tempting. P.s. as an 'expert' what would be the best way to take mushrooms? Last time, I made an error by boiling them in a tea with other ingredients, and I later realised this pretty much destroys them (anything above 70degrees I read).... And certainly, I didn't feel a thing (not bought from yourself or LittleBiggy btw).
My understanding is that the myth of boiling water destroying psilocybin has been busted for a while now. In my experience, this hasn't been an issue for me (I don't know what you combind the shrooms with, maybe that had an interaction) but boiling in generally should be fine. Check Erowid for more details. https://www.erowid.org/plants/mushrooms/mushrooms_info7.shtml
For other ways of uptake. Try lemon tek, it can help with uptake and those with stomach issues. For me personally, I prefer making a tea or smoothie.
In your case, something to bare in mind is it could also be result of a not so potent batch you had -- esp if you bought them powdered (powdered shrooms generally lose their potency fast) or the hasn't been stored well.

Thank you for your response, yes I think something we mixed in with the tea must have interacted negativity with the psilocybin. I think chewing on them or lemon trek (if I understand correctly, grind the mushrooms into powder, then soak in fresh lemon?) is the best way.
Yeah, lemon tek seems to help with the uptake, although a lot of people also claim this is placebo... imo, placebo is great even if it's true. It also helps people with digest issues with shrooms. Personally, I'm not too bothered about scoffing one down with a swig of a drink, but some people don't enjoy the taste.

I'm very much a scientific person and I know the science says there's no difference but I just can't reconcile that with my decades of smoking experience. How is it that 'sativa' strains often trigger my anxiety but 'indicas' almost always have the total opposite effect and can bring me out of an episode?!
I know there's a whole lot more going on with the influence of terpenes, other minor cannabinoids, etc. that we maybe don't fully understand yet so perhaps there's a scientific explanation for it but for now it remains a mystery to me.

that's the thing, science often changes its mind once it considers more parameters and cannabis understanding is still in diapers.
This was actually really interesting. My partner and I have ‘debated’ lol at length the indica v sativa thing and whether there’s a difference, in the end all I could/can say is a good quality indica to me at least feels like I have a force almost pushing me deeper into the sofa where as a good sativa always brings me up, both mentally and gets me laughing and indeed wanting a good time! Seems according to this, that science says it’s in my head!!
Weed definitely has different effects from strain to strain but it does seem there is more to it than Indica/sativa
Headspace/terps/minor cannabinoids are my thoughts
Headspace/terps/minor cannabinoids are my thoughts
Set and setting is definitely a thing. One day I can consume with others and laugh my tits off, the next day by myself and I just fall asleep. All using the same strain (aaaaghh!! bacteria... Chemovar? one debate at a time!)
When people say sativa gives them an "up" effect, what time of day is this? Morning? or is it the first toke of the day but at 11 at night?
When using indica and people get a "down" effect, again what time of day is this? Night time after a tiring day? or is it first toke of the morning after a heavy session the night before?
All I'm trying to do is provoke thinking about why and when we perceive these indica/sativa effects beyond just sativa = energy and indica = couchlock.
It's all very interesting.

Very well put indeed, not just set and setting either, overall headspace and mood, and probably one of the most undervalued metrics in this whole topic is diet + exercise, every single one of these factors will dictate how you're going to be affected by the consumption of THC
and of course let's not forget the grow, grower, what it was grown in, time of harvest during flower and what stage the trichomes were at in their development are all things that will have a huge impact on how that particular batch of that particular grow will effect you! the people who are searching for a particular strain for it's supposed effects are wasting their time and money, the strains name does not dictate it's effects or how much of a indica / sativa hybrid it is, all a strain name will tell you is where the genetics are from and roughly what terpenes you should be expecting, that is all
there's also no such thing as 50/50 sativa indica hybrids and 70/30 etc etc

Yeah always thought the ratio thing was a bit dodgy. Why not 23/77 or 86/14 ?
Also, when 50/50 (or any ratio really) why is it usually "will give you a burst of creative energy but will eventually lead to a relaxed state of mind and peaceful sleep, if you can keep the munchies away!"
Why that order? It's 50/50 so why not: "will send you immediately into a creative sleep where you will raid the fridge by sleepwalking. Careful though you will suddenly have a burst of energy and wake up doing pushups."
Or, to make further mockery: "careful this 80/20 sativa will glue you to the sofa if you smoke the last 20% of the joint"
Regardless of ratio most descriptions just describe the cannabis intoxication journey. It will give you a high (head, body, insert personal effect) leading to the end of the high (relaxation, sleep, insert personal effect).

Steps down from soapbox. I need a toot, exhausted so I'll go for a nice sativa. :)

Well a hybrid is a hybrid. If my dad is aborigine and my mum is a Klingon then I’m 50:50 and the world is my lobster right? So cross a sativa haze with a Hindu Kush and it will be a 50:50 hybrid of the two, it’s just what difference that makes in the effects and whether those effects are attributable to the plant type rather than other elements. I guess we are now siding with “other elements “, which is fine.
But this is evidence based on blind tests where the reported effects didn’t correlate to the strains. In my own lab I have 42 numbered jars- I can only know what strain they are by referring to my trusty spreadsheet 🤓. When I try them at random and try to guess from the effects whether they are indica or sativa I always get it right. 100%. Not even slightly difficult.
But then I have 30 different tequilas and I am pretty good at blind testing those too 🤠…..

But what happens if your Dad is 32% Indonesian and 68% Armenian and your mum is 38% Klingon and 62% Borg (? that's a Trek thing innit?) Then your not 50:50. It's meaningless!
Ok you can identify between your own stash - well done but can you hand on heart take a toke and say hmm, I'm getting 25% sativa effects and 75% indica effects or whatever?
Unless you mean you are 50:50 as in hermaphrodite? 😉
With all that's been said I am still very much influenced by either sativa/indica descriptions - what more is there to go on?

Now don't get mad, I'm not being sarcastic or disingenious. This is a 100% genuine response after reading and re-reading your comment for the last 10 minutes: Sorry, I don't understand?
Thank fuck for that! My antenna isn't erect enough at the moment. I think it needs greasing and if I just give it a tug it may start working. Although last time I did that it poked me in the eye.
Phew! You had me thinking “Christ, if I can’t even get a smile out of CB then I’m cancelling my One Dog Stand Up Tour! “ 🥹
didn't take long did it for people to start glazing over the science once again and stating "but, but i can feel a difference" lol, i'm experiencing such high levels of second hand embarrassment
i know it's difficult they've been perpetuating this bullshit for donkeys years and don't want to pull themsleves out of their ways but i've linked every article under the sun on this in the past even ones on blind testing that continually expose this pseudoscience but it doesn't sink in
if selective hearing is a thing then i'm pretty sure selective learning is a thing too, well the past few years has proven this more than ever

Wish I could keep some in jars but It never stay s in the jars for long ,abit like my vodka bottle ha ha u lot are good people
I have 3 children using this theory they should all be fairly similar as 50/50 me and Mrs rabb1t and therefore the same as each other
They aren't
They aren't
Well genetically they certainly are. Unless there’s something Mrs.Rabb1t isn’t telling you..🤫
Yes but ones hyperactivity, ones like the opposite and ones bang in the middle
I'm genuinely not making this up
But technically they are all 50/50 yeah?

Interesting ‘cos it’s exactly the same argument- genetics vs effects yeah? We think that a plants genetics give us particular effects but the (scant) evidence suggests otherwise. Kids personality traits don’t mirror their genetics but their DNA doesn’t lie.

But we do at least know now thanks to science it's not indicas sedate and sativas don't
We know it's more complex

I like you on the soapbox
Fancy starting a political party with me?

Well I am a lying sexual deviant, two faced and with loose morals, no heart or backbone, serving only myself and people who pay me enough. So yeah, maybe I could be a politician. :)
Well that's ok because the idea I have means you would be in politics a short time anyway
I want to create a political party with two policies only
To change how politicians are paid and limit their activities outside of government being one
But the main reason I want to do this is, to have a party that changes the rules
No more first past the post, proportional representation elections instead
Once changing these the government would immediately have a general election to allow the changes to be made
Now there's the small matter of the house of lords
Now we know blowing it up didn't work previously...
So am open to suggestions 🤔
There's lots of fed up people on this island, the issue I feel is the lack of representation of our interests

My thought process is that sativa and indica are individual species of the cannabis plant which would itself suggest some biological variations between the two, so I still think there's maybe something missing from the 'no difference between them' position.
I get that selective breeding over the years has blurred that line somewhat but going back far enough, pure indica plants were very different from sativa variants in terms of appearance and growth behaviour, so logic would dictate other biological differences too.
The reason we started cross-breeding them to create hybrids in the first place was to combine the different characteristics of each species, so why did we do that if they're all the same?
If we're being truly scientific then we have to recognise that just because we haven't yet identified those differences, or what they mean for us, that doesn't necessarily mean they don't exist.

Hi OldManEd, It's difficult to get that image of large plant, narrow leaved sativa and small plant, broad leaved indica out of our heads isn't it?
On one hand you say they are individual species but later you say they are variants of each other? Science says genetically they are the same. It's how those genes are expressed that makes some sort of difference in effects.
I wish I knew more about plant biology but I do know the same species of a particular plant can exhibit different traits depending on environment, growing conditions, etc. (its phenotype -ooooh, swallowed a dictionary have you!) I have some Tulips from the same seed packet at my front door in a container and they are all yellow. In the back garden in the ground they are all red.
I just wish we had pure sativa and pure indica seeds because I theorize if you put either seed in hot, equatorial zones they will exhibit sativa traits and place them in cooler, temperate zones they will exhibit indica traits.
It's all interesting.

There not saying there isn't a difference more that there isn't a couchlock indica cannabinoid and a hyper sativa cannaboid and that's it's the different ratios of terps/noids etc etc but there isn't a thing that either sativa or indicas have that other doesn't
Yeah, all fair points - maybe I should stop trying to make sense of it all and just enjoy it for what it is. 😊
Love this, Since we've established that there is no scientific difference between an indica and sativa, it's only fair to discuss why these strains might feel so different when ingested. The most likely hypothesis is the entourage theory, also called the entourage effect.
The research shows that genetically it is impossible to prove whether a cannabis plant is an Indica or Sativa. There is no difference in the genes. “What studies mainly shows is that you should not just rely on those labels, but that you should look at the specific terpene profile.
The cannabis industry needs to look more critically at its own disclosures. According to researchers at Canada’s Dalhousie University and the Wageningen University & Research, the Indica and Sativa labels on cannabis are often wrong and misleading. Patients and consumers would benefit from a more scientific approach. The researchers analysed hundreds of cannabis samples. The study shows that the genetic and chemical composition of the cannabis tested often does not correspond to the typical cannabis label Indica or Sativa.
The terms Indica and Sativa are often used to categorise cannabis. These different strains are generally believed to be associated with certain psychoactive effects. Often the effect of a Sativa strain is described as mentally stimulating and energising, while that of an Indica strain is described as relaxing and soothing. In addition, it is often suggested that the labels say something about the genetic background.
“For example, cannabis labelled as Sativa often contains higher concentrations of single terpenes with tea-like and fruity aromas, while Indica samples generally contain higher concentrations of terpenes with an earthy smell such as myrcene, guaiol, gamma-elemene and gamma-eudesmol.”
The distinction that some researchers found is not convincing: “It really is about these specific, individual terpenes that make the difference. The overall chemical profile, like the genetics, shows no apparent difference between the labels. We also found only a small number of regions in the cannabis genome that likely contribute to the earthy aroma associated with the Indica label
It’s a tough subject for sure 😂❤️

So the people (like this woman who often work for big corporations who are profiting from weed) who claim we have proven that indica/sativa doesn't mean anything haven't shown any evidence that isn't an article that doesn't cite sources
Show us meta analysis of multiple peer reviewed clinical studies that conclusively prove indica/sativa is bullshit.
You can't. You don't have anymore evidence than the bro science people saying indica/sativa is important.
Neither side can actually evidence their claims so I am not require to believe or accept either position until it is demonstrated to be true.
Now stop pretending this woman is some sort of genius, and admit she is just repeating what others have told her without referencing any studies at all.

I was replying generally, it wasn't directed at anyone specifically, appreciate the "let me Google that for you there Jedi" 😅
None of the linked studies are direct confirmation of the premise, and near the end of the interview you linked to, she details how myrcene and limonene (as examples) are more responsible for the perceived effects, without mentioning that sativa plants grow more limonene and indicas grow more myrcene generally.
It's hilarious watching this whole debate realise indica / sativa are indicators of terpene content, not botanical classifications. Almost like we understood that all along if you've smoked weed for a while 😂
Its nice to have some basic evidence that terpene groupings are more important than anything else, will be interesting to see how minor cannabinoids and flavinoids affect our opinion of the botanical accuracy of the old terms.

I think sativa has just become a code word for, "not very strong" nowadays.
If you get enough THC in you, it's going to put you to sleep.

Agree.
That's why we stop listing indica/sativa in our listings. There is no way to determine which was it leans other than how you feel and we're taking one person's experience as fact.
It's absolutely ridiculous.
If anyone follows First Smoke of the Day, check out the episode with the guy that runs High Times. He addresses this amongst many other bro science things related to cannabis

Wow, she talks fast..I broke my pencil on the first question and by the time I’d sharpened it it was all over! 😵💫😂

Hi biggy boys and Ladies, i am very new to btc all that crypto, escrow etc Staff.. Found some people do not send btc straight away from revolut account but from some called trusted wallets? Anyone good advise me with Simple steps of doing that and if i really need that wallet then what's best to use?
I found guys that using wallet is optional?? Should i be safe doing payment straight away from revolut?
edit//anyone using without wallet without issues?
Love for any help given. Prace guys

Hi elsamosa, welcome to LB.
I'd recommend always using a wallet. It's possible to send directly from a Coinbase account but I've heard lots of people saying their account was closed down by CB after doing so. I did it a couple of times at the start of my BTC journey but switched to using a wallet which I've done ever since. I've never used Revolut but assume the same applies to that.
It does mean an extra transfer which means an extra fee but it seems to be more secure and if you use Coinbase Advanced then you can minimise the fees.
All the best. 👍

I just realised i made this topic at my profile.. Thank you a lot for visiting and a reply mate. I am using wallet atm.
Hi, I have been buying btc on revolut, it only ever allows you to withdraw to around 50 addresses then locks so you have to have a separate wallet as one of your withdrawals or you will run out of options. I buy as much as i can at that time and send it to trust wallet. From trust wallet I can spend small amounts and the fees are usually 1 or 2 dollars. For more crypto information there is loads under the help section that basically helped me get from completely blind to just severe cataracts, just enough knowledge to buy drugs 😉
Thanks for stopping by big man. I also bank with rev and buy there btc. I wish LB start using ltc or something else but (might be wrong) i think the btc for safety is the best option as so many using it. Anyway my fees till now were not that bad. No complaints from me. Thanks again mate
Hiya and welcome 🤗
I use bittylicious and make payment directly
The only thing I would say it’s good to set up a Coinbase or something similar just in case you need a refund, so you have an address you can receive btc back

Non weed flavours
I've been thinking about getting some of this stuff and having a crack at making some diy vape carts up to save money.
Is it difficult to add non terpene derived flavour to the distillate? I like mint and menthol flavoured nicotine vape juice and originally my plan was to try and mix the distillate with a menthol flavoured short fill but I'm guessing that's probably not the best idea, given that I don't see anything close to that for sale on here...
Its a bit of a dear do for experimenting with lol.
Any thoughts?

I've used standard e-juice concentrates in D9 distillate and they work fine. 10% flavouring is usually a good starting point, maybe less for really strong flavours.
The main thing to consider is that these flavours come suspended in propylene glycol which causes the resulting distillate mix to be noticeably less viscous than when using terpene blends. This can cause the carts to burn out a bit quicker than normal but I use 0.5ml carts and haven't had any issues with those. The 1ml carts might not perform as well.
The terpenes-uk.co.uk site has flavour concentrates which don't have any terps so might want to have a look at those. I've tried a couple and they're decent, if a bit pricey.
I use flavourexpress.com for e-juice concentrates but any good vape shop should have some too.

Not something we have tried but I think it would work fine if you use DIY e-juice flavour concentrates like soylifeform suggested (use a hotplate to mix if you have one)

I add .25ml DIY vape flavouring to 1ml of this D9 dude. Shot glass, D9 in it and microwave for ten seconds. Add vape flavour and swirl around until mixed. Then syringe into vape.
I’d recommend buying the CCELL pros as it has a preheat function you can use before each toke and makes the tokes super smooth.
Happy toking.

The biggest thank you
I can give goes to all the people over the years who have made this resource available for so many different types of users, from the medical user, the occasional, the regular, all of us benefit from this site being here, and I'm feeling very happy and grateful to everyone who has in some way helped to make this a reality.
I recently moved from Kent (where I had a fab supply through an awesome friend) to rural Scotland. I managed to eek out what I had to make it last as long as possible, managed to get a friend to send me some, which helped a bit, and managed to find a supplier eventually, all be it an hour+ drive away. I continued to buy from him when I could, but being disabled, and also having my eldest son in hospital at the same time meant that was infrequent. Then one day I sent the usual message through and didn't get a reply. Did get a read receipt though, so the phone was still active. Sadly I think he may have been caught. Not heard a word from him since. So that left me with no weed, just before my body went into the biggest fibromyalgia flare I've ever had. I needed to transfer my ID to the new address to register for a bitcoin account, so although I'd heard of little biggy, and browsed the site before I'd never used any of the vendors. I sent my licence off for renewal and spent a bit of time exploring the website. When I got my ID back I managed to set up a blockchain account. I was originally just going to use them as a wallet, but I realised I could buy bitcoin and send it to a vendor from the same app. I had to wait 24 hours to use my bitcoin, so I had to decide what would be my first purchase.
I decided to try some shake. Both to keep my risk down, and to test shake out. I've had similar from a BM dealer in Kent and was charged about 160 for dusty bag. It did have about 40g in it, but still pretty expensive for not very good quality. I decided to try my look and see if this shake is ny good. I eventually settled on @strainsburys for my first purchase, of 28g of skywalker shake. My bitcoin payment didn't go through till after 5pm on Friday so I knew they wouldn't be able to post until the Monday at the earliest. I didn't get a dispatch notification, so wasn't sure if it had been sent, but sure enough on Tuesday morning there is a knock on the door and my postie hands me a neat little package. No smell at this stage, no suspicion on his side. I took my little parcel inside, and with excitement I opened it up. The package was well secured, basically a plastic envelope containing a sealed little box which contained a vacuum sealed smell proof bag of blessed pain relief. Please bare in mind that at that point I was at the height of a prolonged extremely painful fibro flare, and I had been out of my herbal medicine for more than a month. I opened the bag and was hit with a lovely smell. Rolled myself what I thought was a very light weight joint and went and sat on my back step to smoke it. The pain relief and distancing from what had been overwhelming pain for the previous month was immediately evident. But I was barely half way down when I realised I was absolutely baked. I'm well impressed with how good the effects were from something that only cost me £70 for 28g. I've never been able to buy anything at this price before, not since the 90s when I managed to get an oz for a 100 once!
Since my first tentative and successful purchase I've been back for me. Another 28g of shake from the first vendor. Very pleased with this, similar or same price, but I much preferred Gelonade, which has a very pleasant taste, lovely smell when you open the bag, and is a very smooth smoke, that gets you nice and stoned. I've also decided to test out some vape carts, just waiting for the battery to arrive to test that out. And finally, I had an amazing bargain 14g of shake delivered this morning. Only ordered it yesterday lunchtime from justweed and to say I'm impressed is an understatement. OK, so none of the bags of shake I've ordered have contained much in the way of nugs, but that hasn't been a problem for me, because the effects are potent and good.
To sum up my stoned waffle, I just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone, vendors, site operators and buyers, all of you who make this a reality, thank you, and if I've missed anyone, I'm sorry, I just tested out justweeds shake and I'm stoned af

I didn't get a dispatch notification, so wasn't sure if it had been sent, but sure enough on Tuesday morning there is a knock on the door and my postie hands me a neat little package. No smell at this stage, no suspicion on his side. I took my little parcel inside, and with excitement I opened it up. The package was well secured, basically a plastic envelope containing a sealed little box which contained a vacuum sealed smell proof bag of blessed pain relief. Please bare in mind that at that point I was at the height of a prolonged extremely painful fibro flare, and I had been out of my herbal medicine for more than a month. I opened the bag and was hit with a lovely smell. Rolled myself what I thought was a very light weight joint and went and sat on my back step to smoke it. The pain relief and distancing from what had been overwhelming pain for the previous month was immediately evident. But I was barely half way down when I realised I was absolutely baked. I'm well impressed with how good the effects were from something that only cost me £70 for 28g. I've never been able to buy anything at this price before, not since the 90s when I managed to get an oz for a 100 once!
Since my first tentative and successful purchase I've been back for me. Another 28g of shake from the first vendor. Very pleased with this, similar or same price, but I much preferred Gelonade, which has a very pleasant taste, lovely smell when you open the bag, and is a very smooth smoke, that gets you nice and stoned. I've also decided to test out some vape carts, just waiting for the battery to arrive to test that out. And finally, I had an amazing bargain 14g of shake delivered this morning. Only ordered it yesterday lunchtime from justweed and to say I'm impressed is an understatement. OK, so none of the bags of shake I've ordered have contained much in the way of nugs, but that hasn't been a problem for me, because the effects are potent and good.
To sum up my stoned waffle, I just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone, vendors, site operators and buyers, all of you who make this a reality, thank you, and if I've missed anyone, I'm sorry, I just tested out justweeds shake and I'm stoned af
I also found LB just when I needed it most, having moved hundreds of miles and not knowing any plugs in the new area. LB has been genuinely life-changing for me, really glad it's helping you out too. 👍

DMT extraction /How to make DMT carts
Nice one, cheers.
Enjoy the journey buddy. 💚
+ 3 more
Mimosa Hostilis root bark
(MHRB)
Only shredded allowed in uk, not powdered.
Costs around £60 for half K, from which at least 5g can be extracted(pure dmt). (very easily) All products needed are available in uk.

I may be wrong, but are you sure powdered is illegal? I was able to buy it pretty easily a few years ago usually it was sold as a clothes dye.
Talking from experience. The whole extraction process is a ball ache. Done 10 odd runs and it ain't easy..
£90 a gram of freebass is the way better option. Makes a couple hard hitting vapes

Nah, not gonna orger a gram of white powder through the post, as you must also know 1g of dimitri dust looks a whole lot more than 1g.
You gotta think about the fact you've no idea who made such dust and what may be inside it too.
I'd buy another vape before any pixie dust.
It's as easy as Chris Cantelmo says, no exact measurements are needed, just chuck stuff around and do as you please all you need is ph 12 or higher, it's the only stipulation.
You can even use uk tapwater as long as it's not flouridated. uk has quite high ph so that helps.
more sodium hydroxide is needed if you put too much white spirit vinegar, big deal, use too much vinegar easily sorted.
use to little vinegar and bark won't break down, easily sorted, the bark is still sitting in crock pot, add more water and vinegar and cook it up some more.
Only bit of good advice over Chris Cantelmo's tech, is get a good face mask for the naphtha.
If you wanted to you could easily extract 5g from a £60 bit of bark, you're talking about 1g (made of fucks knows what) for 90.

If you do everything right yeah. Like I said I've done it 10+ times. It's all the stuff you need to do the extraction in the 1st place and the permanent mess(stains)you make with the red root bark. Most people don't like messing with lighter fluid either. And I was talking about that's the easy option for Mr Joe Bloggs. Not many people have time or space to do it.
And another point I've only had pure white crystal once. Its always got a orange tint to it. There are other steps to make fat heavy crystals 5 inches long.
NN-DMT is very nice but the real ride comes with 5-MEO-DMT (mexican venom)

My changa vape has yellow dimitri, it seems stronger for sure, the white is special tho, incredibly therapeutic and a physical healer too.👍❤️
I suggest MintyLove if you want to learn one-hit breakthroughs or precise dosing. He has some nice, informative videos.
Cheers Booba, got that channel bookmarked now.
I imagine with the popularity of the spirit molecule over the last few years the authorities have clamped down.
There's a few dmt communities online and all say powdered is illegal now and all i can find is shredded tho i've heard much of it is basically powdered anyways. (i've found some that's used for dyeing but not for clothes.
I used to order legally from Holland damiana extract, that's been banned now too no doubt just like the powdered mhrb.
Thanks again for your input my friend.❤️👊

First pull, 1.5g of the whitest dimitri i've ever seen,
2nd, half g, little yellowish tint, taste and effect is like what i've been used too.
The first white pull was quite different, so much smoother to inhale and the trip was the most gentle experience i've ever had on psychedelics.
Saving the white for two or three uber strong vapes.
Smoking the yellow tint in joints.
Thinking about some northern lights changa if i ever do it again.
It's very very easy, no gurus or wise men needed.
**naphtha is carcinogenic, so be careful.

congrats on the first batch! it's always a great feeling trying something you've made yourself.
Cheers Booba, i used brazilian mimosa, shredded, i've since found a site in Germany with powder, which produces many times more dimitri.
Getting my vape materials fri or sat, puffing on one of these vapes is gonna be pretty scary first time, tho saying that the trip off the white was so gentle and friendly.😁

A good yeilding bark is nice. Sadly, I was never able to find a very good one, although it's good that it's still fairly cheap either way. I was never able to get over the fear factor of DMT, even on little hits. It's odd in that way, but I found that whenever I was able to take the first hit, all of that anxiety, etc. just vanished. Most of my friends and people I've talked to over the years seem to think the same.
Had a few good puffs of my vape, very very happy with it, set it to low on my pen and it's perfect.❤️👊

Hi BB
You are really on top of this.
I think the yellow tint is due to oxydation.
I'm not a chemist but did look it up and found this:
“there seems to be some misconceptions of why crystals come out yellow. it has nothing to do with lipids, because lipids leave residue, separate from crystals. crystal lattice forms from homogeneity; obviously, lipids with dmt don't form a homogeneous lattice.
the yellow color comes from oxidation of pyrrole in the tryptamine structure. this is documented, and even occurs with tryptamine itself.
the vial on the right was freshly freeze precipitated from hexane. the middle and left ones were left at room temp for a day, they were initially white like the sample on the right. speaking of tryptamine .. this was freeze precipitated from acetone. it was initially clear leaflets/prisms, and turned yellow with exposure to air.
I've analyzed both white and yellow crystals with LC-MS, there is always a single strong peak at 189 m/z, and nothing at 205 (which would indicate dmt n-oxide).”
I'm going to have to wait until Summer (when my family is away) before hitting that Psychonaut vape.
Cheers

Interesting, my storage glass container had a rubber seal, after the first pull when i emptied the napththa, the rubber seal had come off the container lid.
On the second pull (which was yellow tint) the container that's put in freezer, wasn't air tight completely.
I'll get another container then, around 750ml is plenty, glass air tight.👊

I noticed this as well and it seems that the naphtha reacts with rubber or silicone seals which makes them lose their elasticity and they distort out of shape.
If you just give them a rinse under the tap and leave them out for a few hours, they'll go back to normal. Get another glass container and you can just alternate them as needed. 👍
I use glass mason jars to do the extraction steps and the same thing happens with the seals on those but you can buy spares on Amazon for a few quid.

I crock potted for around 16hrs.
nxt time i may blend the mix and have it a little more thicker, i had zero issue getting to ph12+
Have a fantastic day my good friend.❤️👊

I might give the crockpot a try on my next one, the jar method is minimum fuss but the yield isn't as good as it could be.

Made a .2 dimitri, .2 pg, .2 live resin vape, its more harsh but it wrecks you, basically a changa vape. With Sensi's GSC.
Ngl, You've given me the itch again. Thank you so much!. I just set up the subohm and made some liquid. I doubt there'll be any left tomorrow though.
Seen outline of entity, same entity twice within a short time, and closed eyed colored geometrical wonders.
Ended up setting my pen to high and blasting the white dust vape, i had a live rsin only vape in other hand, few hour session. Got through a decent amount.😁❤️

I have a couple entities who follow me across substances. Rude little bastards just stare at me and sprint out of frame whenever I notice them😅. One of them, what I believe to be a cat made out of the most beautiful neon pink spirals with a silver accent, sort of looks like one of those Vapourer catterpillres without the spikes; another is this amalgamation of clown faces thats constantly morphing; unfortunately, there aren't really any words to describe that one though, but they seem to like trying to jump out and scare me 😆I never used to get entities in my trips at all, really, until I had two bad LSD trips in a row (could also be the fact im a very heavy dose person), not sure if I ever fully came back from them. It seems like most trips include some sort of entity now, whereas before it was mainly just geometry and the very occasional entity. Have you ever considered a sub-ohm tank? It may be because I used to vape, but I found it to be much better than the classic cart; although you do use more substance, it looks less suspicious too! 😝 Well, my binge is over; not much insight into much seems to be just like watching a movie now, unfortunately, and I wasn't willing to go for a breakthrough. I'll give you a fun thing to try that I'm not sure many have. If you can get past the sort of sluggish, slow feeling DMT gives, dancing is incredible. I have not found anything else that gets me going quite like it.
That sounds insane! I wish I had thought about that a couple years ago. If it's too harsh, I suggest adding some VG to the next one, as it's less harsh than just PG itself.
We aren’t sure of this conspiracy but This legend actually strangely passed away not long after making these videos. I think alot can be owed towards this mastery even our amazing Vape has some gratefulness towards him ❤️🙏🏼
Hello my good friend, hey the colors in the opened eyed visuals i seen last night were so beautiful and zany.😁
You've a wonderful spirit vape maker i love your vapes and know they're nice and strong and tasty.
I much appreciate you folks for introducing me to this wonder.
Today, the day after a couple sessions last night (i wasnt feeling like eating anything yesterday so it was perfect time for session(as you must know you're good to go again after a good session after just an hour, you're completely back to ground level, as if it never happened.
so i had couple sessions totalling around 4+ maybe 5 hours.
Love you guys Psychonauts, take care.❤️👊

Cheers for the kind words bud!! We are super happy our vape is doing good for this community and its good to hear for experienced folks like yourself too :-) It's hard to get this level of purity and we prefer being able to micro or macro as we feel...we don't always feel like changing galaxies and this is perfect for still getting the benefits :-) We wish you well BBDoom and everyone on this journey of self discovery :-)
Hi Psychonauts
You folks are truly doing the Universe work
You have given many of us access to the key "Knock and the Door shall open".

I've gotten through 1g in the last 3 days vaping it,)over half g white, and another vape yellow changa. it has healed me physically (i had a frozen big toe for around 5 months, healed last night, my asthma feels better in more than 10 years, and my spirits are lifted.
I made a changa vape with the yellow and realized the yelow is stronger, with the more typical experiences, the white if you vape enough turns you into feeling like superman.😁❤️👊
Take care my friend.

Had my first breakthrough
here are my notes, appreciate you TW and all the biggas out there.
Ended up in a dense, 4d, full color spectrum universal life-force soup.
-i was just in awe and excitement here.
then ended up in a less dense life-force soup, i was more lucid and able to manifest.
The first soup was like being part of the universal life-force, the 2nd state i ended up was more dreamy.
remember kept thinking waw that was amazing and thinking it was over only to discover another level of the trip
took enough that i couldn't move, three blinkers after a 3 -4 hour session.(wasn't right after one another you don't have to go mad 😁
noticed always when you begin a session it always seems so scary and kinda awkward but after initial reaction it's plain sailing from there.
Was towards the end of my supply after a 3 day session, if it wasn't now then i don't know when.
Was just amazing and totally worth it.
❤️👊😊

I've always been taught 1 gram of freebass to 1ml of juice. Comes out around 1.35ml that's a 1.1 ratio
Strongest I've had have always been this ratio.
With added thc, I'm on the fence tbh but it's not a bad thing to have in the mix.
I want the blast off siren within 1-2 pulls. If im smoking freebass, i want a 1 toke blast off every time.
Now real changa/Enhanced herb takes me to a different slower dimension, more than once to the same place. So much love and gratitude

There are many methods. Lots and lots to learn. The main thing is the quality of the root bark and having it as a fine dust like flour.its really hard to blend the stuff,dry or wet. Household appliances are redundant, blenders or them hand held ones.
Actually the main thing is remember to be safe at all times
And the mess the root bark makes is next level. Red stains bleach struggles with

Trinity cap microdosing
Is anyone able to suggest a microdosing course for the trinity caps from the spacemen. I have around 3G sitting around, I took 2.5 on my first time and tbh the trip was too intense for me, not very visual just very emotional and a bit of paranoia.
Alternatively if these aren’t good for microdosing, if there are any takers I can post them to someone first class 😂

I've not had a full shroom trip in years but microdose frequently and got some of the Trinity from Spacemen recently. I've been using between 0.1g and 0.15g for a microdose which seems to work well if you're not looking for any real trippy effects, just a feelgood vibe all day.
If you haven't got any, grab some milligram scales from Amazon and you can be really accurate with the dose. I take them every other day for a week and then have a week off which works well for me.
Hope you find a nice balance that works for you. 👍

Thank you Ed that’s really helpful, I was about to go for about 0.5 and would’ve been off my tits again 😂
What’s your experience with driving, working etc. while dosing, I work in a regulated environment so do need to be ‘with it’ so to speak.

😂 Yeah, I think even 0.5g might be a bit too much of these bad boys.
I work full time from home and if I stick to 0.15g or under then I'm fine, it actually helps me focus on some tasks. Any more than that and my mind can start to wander. Same goes for driving, I try and keep that to a minimum anyway though cos I'm pretty much always going to fail a roadside test for THC. 😶🌫️
I once bought some Albino Penis Envy shrooms and took 0.25g on a work day which was my usual dose of Golden Teachers. I didn't trip but it felt almost like a threshold dose and I reckon these would be about the same.

Ah the roadside tests, funny enough a few years back I came positive on one but bloods were under somehow. I am a fair bit away from my work so have to drive most days. I stick to the carts when I’m out and about and keep a bottle of peroxide mouthwash next to me, heard it can make the saliva swab negative
I have a pack of these that i was thinking of doing the same thing with, this sounds like a pretty good regime, being as potent as they are there's a fair amount of doses there, nice one cheers, and thanks OP for asking💜💚👊🏻
I've recently being doing the Stamets Stack when microdosing, taking 1g of Lions Mane mushroom powder in a drink and a 50mg Niacin tablet along with the shrooms.
Not sure how much difference it makes tbh but I've read that it helps to boost the beneficial effects of the shrooms, and Lions Mane appears to have lots of brain-friendly properties on its own so the logic seems sound.

No-one will ever know. Try it when you're not working first, but I'm happy now that there's barely any difference in me to people that seems noteworthy. Driving, working, interacting, socialising, dealing with complex problems and machinery, no issue whatsoever if you've dosed correctly.
Exactly that, its about finding your own sweet spot for that particular strain.
Definitely best to experiment on days off if unsure though, saves any awkward disciplinary hearings. 😬

I have 3.5g of these and was going to just neck the lot. So it was a rushy come up where you just want to roll around in bliss, or something else? Haven't had a proper cathartic trip cry for many a month. Sounds like an epic afternoon wrapped in an Oodie.
As to microdosing, I've just been buying them ready made on here, and I'm having the best results from Stamets' Stack at 0.25g shrooms, 0.7g Lions Mane and 0.1g Niacin. Good luck!

Well I haven’t done shrooms in ages but it wasnt what I was expecting, the come up had that anticipation to it almost like LSD and when the trip came it was very much rushes of emotions for 4-5 hours and also a sense of losing touch with reality along with some mild visuals. Ended up on the floor with the Mrs waiting for it to end 😂 on the way done I got around 30 minutes where my mind was clearer than it’s ever been it felt like I’d never smoked a spliff in my life. Then I hit the motor breath and I was back into zombie mode 😂
So, how close was your experience to mine after my decades of not tripping? I left this review on the first Monday of July 2023. Somehow psychedelic Mondays became a thing just because of weird rota quirks. I'm in gainful employment, I swear.
Wtf it’s actually so similar barring the fact you seemed to handle it a lot better, I forgot to mention I threw up 2 hours in 😂
Decades eh..go back 2 of them and I’m in the single digits so I certainly wasn’t tripping then haha

Set and Setting. My mindset hasn't been right for a while, and I'm trying to sort that out. I think Stamets' Stack microdosing is definitely working with that. But, my Setting is almost always available, and secure, cosy and without uncontrollable influences. Makes a huge difference.

Nice list :)
If you are into Asian Extreme then there is also
Ichi the Killer
The Chaser
I Saw The Devil
Mother (2009)
The Wailing
Thirst (2009, not really extreme but I like it)
Memories of Murder
A tale of 2 sisters (though that freaks me out more than martyrs for some reason and just confused me, I should try watching it again)
I really like the Brazilan film Bacurau
For nihilist stuff like kill list there is also Traders (2015), Barry Keoghan has always unnerved me since.

this is a clip from mr designer, a soviet film about building immortality with wax mannequins.
Does any other "older" bigga here find it hard to be scared by films now? I used to love a good chiller back in the day. Now I'm 67, have access to the whole wonders of cable and the web, but any supposed "horror" I watch leaves me cold. Not trying to sound "old and wise" believe me, but every movie in that category I end up feeling "meh".
At 52 I thought I’d seen it all, not been scared for a long long time but then I saw Martyrs and whilst it didn’t scare me like Halloween did when I was much younger, it’s such a visceral experience that it’s become one of my favourite movies. Just don’t make the mistake of watching the US remake, it’s shit.
Never heard of Martyrs so just looked it up. Jeez that sounds heavy and dark! Will check it out some time. 👍
Nocturnal animals messed my head up more than any horror has done in a while. A lot of horror I like has to be more based on an interesting premise like martyrs, though a lot of horror made is targeted for PG-13 as that can command a box office so the films are more gore based but lack the total brain fuck.
It depends what you want from horror and also you possibly need to empathize with the victims. The American version of the ring I decided I was on the side of Samara so I turned it off. I like the Japanese version as it has a sombre ambience. Jump scares get very tiring very quickly and tune me out, though some only like jump scares as it is more popcorn.
You have to say what types of films you used to enjoy. If you want nasty I would put funny games above martyrs as martyrs actually has a reason. Funny games is just pure sadism. Martyrs I put off for a long while, I really enjoyed it when I watched it as the premise is very bizarre.
The Ritual was pretty enjoyable.

American Werewolf in London watched it when I was 6 and scared the shit out of me for weeks, love it now prob best horror ever.
here's some good ones that you might not have heard of all are amazing and worth a watch, you wouldn't be disappointed.
Apocalypto, would you rather, hostel series, saw series, also depends on what sort of horror you like but apocalypto is the best out of them all.

let me know what you think It's old but one of the best films I've ever seen. It's subtitled if you can get over that but its the movie itself that hooks you not much talking in it.
It's a mel gibson one too.

Not so much a movie, but the last series of Black Mirror saw a slight deviation in its final episode, rebranding as Red Mirror, a full on horror focused strand.
Demon 79, its debut offering is an absolute blast, up there with some of the best Black Mirror episodes.
Well worth checking out.

I exclusively watch horror movies all through October. My standards for horror movies are different than other genre's. Show me something a little bit different and I'll consider it worth the watch.
I try and watch a mixture of new and old stuff throughout the month. So far there has been a clear winner in terms of what I've thought about most after watching.
Talk to me (2022)
I watched about 40 seconds of a 2minute trailer and decided ok I'm in and wouldn't advise knowing any more than that coming in. Now the movie didn't scare me in any way but it did have an incredibly visceral reaction on me to the point of having to look away several times and literally dreading what was coming next. As someone who doesn't think of themselves as squimish in the slightest I can't think the last time a movie did that to me.
Also I found out watching that the guys started out as Youtubers who I actually watched a bunch of their stuff back in the day. Which was really surprising because it does feel like a really confident movie and the chemistry/dialogue between characters is actually way better than a lot of big budget movies.

Hostel or paranormal activity are a couple of my favs.
Although im a bit of a woosy when it comes to watching any horror lol

There's a Turkish horror movie called Baskin which has some of the most messed up scenes I've watched. It's pretty slow to get going but when the fun starts, it goes crazy very quickly.

Hi people. Quick question.
I made a payment to a vendor but it is stuck in a block chain.
It has been pending & waiting approval for nearly 36 hours now.
Anyone else had this before?
I paid for normal transaction speed as usual ,which would deliver in an hour or less.
Cheers.

btc is an absolute joke and working as intended, which is to say it's meant to maximise profit for miners.
I usually select the highest fee amount suggested by the app I use and it's there within an hour. The last couple of times it's sat in the mempool going unloved for many hours regardless of me paying for the shakedown..
You can pay for further extortion with btc accelerator services which run their own private mining services so they can prioritise your transaction. This can set you back a further $30-40 but can confirm it worked on my last transaction I had stuck.
It's worth checking bitcoinfees.net before setting your btc fee amount. It has a graph showing the fee amount and number of unconfirmed transactions for each. As usual it'll cost you more but will cut down on the delay.

I went to buy $100 of hash this am (6/12) and the fees were $60! I can’t justify this personally, so had to sack the order off unfortunately.
I had a transaction stuck during the last BTC fee spike and it sat unconfirmed over a week. It eventually dropped out of the mempool so never ended up being deducted from my wallet balance but still caused loads of issues with my order.
It's happening more frequently now too so we really do need an alternative currency option on here.

We are all wading through mempool mud at the moment as the miners set fees according to traffic and only high fees get processed fast…it’s total crap.
If your order times out then when your send order completes transaxe will return your coin.

How long does it take to expire?
Is this common? I've spent 100s of $ on LB with no hassle.
In my sending options I can tap tortoise, rabbit , or lightning. I always use rabbit and it is cleared in less than half hour.

These are crazy days for Bitcoin, it’s the transaction traffic. It has certainly happened before and is the reason LB is trying to set up alternatives. Orders normally expire in 24 hours but you’ll see the update…
I made 6 orders today and 4 are still awaiting payment, this has never happened to me before, will it all just return?
You should of added all 6 items to your cart and paid with 1 link. Save you a lot in fees buddy.
Mine has been nearly 48 hours. I've sent 1000s and never an issue. Maybe an hour or 2 .
I did wait around 12 hours for some to arrive recently but not to send.

The blockchain is heavily congested due to the explosion in bitcoin ordinals due to bitcoin accepting nft tokens. The massive rise in transaction fees are due to this crap.

Odd Vaping Reaction.
Scored an Indica strain on LB from a regular seller. The smell and taste are quite unique: a very oldskool hash taste on the vape exhale, mixed with fruit. Part lineage of the strain is Grape Pie,which probably explains that. The odd part is that a full Mighty cannister on around 187 only yields 2 decent blasts - and then nothing, no more vapour - the damn thing is done! I've had ridiculous ones that keep on yielding for multilpe sessions and some that expire quicker, this one definitely holds the unfortunate record of a true 2-hit wonder. What's up with that?
It means the weed doesn’t have much thc. You’ve extracted everything possible at that temperature. The ones that keep on yielding are higher thc! Moisture levels shouldn’t have too much effect. The mighty doesn’t lie.
I've had the same experience with some batches of weed. I don't know for sure but I reckon it's to do with the moisture/humidity levels of the buds. Lack of vapour suggests that the bud is too dry, perhaps it's been cured for too long or maybe just not stored in the ideal environment.
This can often be sorted by giving it some time in a mason jar with a Boveda or Integra Boost pack to raise the relative humidity. It usually takes a good few days at least for it to make any noticeable difference so not great if it's the only thing in your stash, but if you can leave it like that for 7 to 10 days with an occasional burp of the jar then that often improves the vapour production.

Thanks for that. When I first moved over to vaping from bongs and jays I read that the drier the bud, the better; definitely starting to think that was the wrong advice. After posting that last night and with the lack of vapour in mind, I really went for it on a canister. Still got 2 big hits and a few whispy ones but boy did it hit! Near tripping into the early hours..Cheers.

Coinbase 'network fee'
Coinbase seems to have added a large network fee for sending BTC to web addresses. Any one have any solutions to avoid paying this?
It’s a BTC problem not a Coinbase one.
BTC fees are high right now because there are more transactions ongoing than usual and people are willing to pay lots to prioritise their transaction.
Fees will return to previous amounts, likely within a couple weeks.
So basically you’re going to have to pay the ridiculous fee or wait it out.

Coinbase still seem to have higher fees than everyone else though so looks like they take longer to reduce their rate when the blockchain starts to calm down. Exodus was showing a transfer fee of £4.02 but CB wanted over £13 to transfer into Exodus.
Have you tried coinbase one account? You still have to pay the network fees, they are slightly cheaper though. SWIM bought an oz @ £160, cost £9.45 to send. You avoid paying on the purchase of BTC and only pay network fees. Yeah this is due to BTC going up to the 30k mark again. Happened a while back too.
Yeah my network fee for buying 14g of shake was £9.45. Absolute joke! may go back to my local till its sorted. never had such a high fee in 4 years
22/11/23 Been watching network fees on CB .... last night 10ish was £10.46, a hour later £13+, this morning 7am £15, 11am £9+. Just waiting it out for a bit longer (this is an inTolerance break). Oc once the fee drops there is always a chance it will take ages/too long and order expires.
17/11 am.
Just went to see how much a gram would of cost, gram came to 9.32 and the transaction to send was 10.45 total cost came to £19.77
Had to cancel obviously. That's on coinbase.

It's been so bad this week but starting to come down now. Just watched it go from £18 to £4 over the weekend. I think they are forking onto a new blockchain currently to reduce fees. I need to read into it, wouldn't be surprised if they're finally upgrading to Litecoins lightning network chain.
Side note. How good would Littlebiggy be with a Litecoin wallet!?

Brutal mate. Had this happen to me tonight. Well over £10, near £15 in transaction fees. Only it was a custom order, it would have been cancelled 🙃.
Just paid £5 to buy and £9.50 to send, lol for 14g. Fees were over 10% the cost of the weed. Can’t justify this anymore, will be going back to the streets for now :(
anyone keeping their ear to the ground on this? kept checking for weeks, but done with creating orders just to cancel. if anyone keeps checking back daily, a little dm would be appreciated! :)
Fees are still high it’s gone from like 14 pound somin down to 13 pound somin over the last few days it’s a complete joke! 🤦♂️
haha. nightmare... i've 71 quid in the base and refuse to top up more to cover fees. crazy money.
They made Bitcoin great again by bringing culture into it with Taproot Wizards. Now because of the Wizards we have to pay $20 to transfer bitcorn
16th I paid £8 in revolut fees for a $70 order
Nov 2nd £3.80 varies very week
For the price we have to pay it's still decent.

A couple of hours ago I was quoted 15 to send any amount from exodus just looked again and it’s 9.80 I’m going to wait to see if it goes back to normal
Could try kraken, it's fees are a lot better but the wording used in the app and website make things needlessly complicated compared to coinbase. Oh and there's a 72 hour wait period before you can send or withdraw btc or any other digital currency, only for the first time on a fresh account though.
i did order a couple hours back with 50 and the fees literally swallowed half of it sending it to exodus from coinbase then to the btc address through exodus, feels bad
Its awful this. Really bad. Its not a reliable means of payment and can take a week to clear with no way of knowing when. Money is held in limbo til whenever. Its a total shit state of affaird and has been a year or more off and on. Why arent LB using a more stable coin as means of payment? Why only btc when its the least stable?
Yep - Just been stung for fees on the price of an eighth. Not very nice. Hopefully things will calm down soon.
It’s a fucking joke, Apex is out till acceptable again.
Ohh you want to buy btc pay 10 quid, ohh you want to send that, another 15 quid please Apex.

Dmt filled carts
Has anybody tried one of these dmt carts that I’ve seen knocking around I’ve enjoyed the mushroom experience and wouldn’t mind giving this a try if anybody has any feed back
I've not seen these carts but I'm just starting out on my own journey with this by extracting it myself and the one thing I already know is that it must be approached with caution. I've had a few trips now to familiarise myself with it before I go for a breakthrough and it's next level stuff. Think the craziest mushroom or acid trip you've ever had and it's still nowhere close.
For me, it's a learning/healing experience rather than something to do for fun. Carts could be very tricky to get the correct dose from, and too much before you're ready for it could literally blow your mind.
If you're going to dive in, I highly recommend a good amount of research in advance. Tripsitter.com is a great place to start.
Good luck and bon voyages.

These bloody network fees!!!
Can't buy some hash because the fees are still stupidly high! No way I'm paying £13 just to send a small amount of bitcoin. Bloody fed up waiting for it to come down. Sorry, just having an impatient rant. This can't be good for littlebiggy vendors and the people who run the site either. Sales must be right down. Pity we are stuck with only being able to use bitcoin. There must be a better alternative?
It’s a shame Litecoin isn’t introduced as a payment method on the site. I’ve purchased from a different platform using that currency & the fees are less than £1. Hope you can order something soon 🍻
People been screaming for LTC as a bare minimum for best part of 2 years. btc just far too unstable to be the sole option, and reduced traffic here benefits no one
Yup. I lost $3,500 from one crop in 16 days when BTC tanked. Nearly made me leave LB altogether.
Just watching my money dissappear every day was one of the most depressing things I've ever experienced.
Having nobody to contact that made any sense, and having to wait it out for 16 days was like torture.
Fun times 😔
Cheers BB

I think its transaxe, lb is looking for a new payment processor, theres a few posts about this.
Found myself in a similar situation all be it on a smaller scale. Profits for the month wiped out over a few days. Would drive anyone to drink.
See most of my items are on the lower end so the fluctuations in price doesn’t really effect me that much
Had to make a purchase.
Fees using BTC were £221.
Converted coin to ETH, while it cost me £60 to convert, the fees for sending ETH were 71p.
This site really needs to introduce alternative currency

Yeah its shocking they haven't done anything still, I had to half my last order size and yesterday had to source some outside LB altogether.
I live in the scottish highlands so my alternatives are cowshit and turnips. This really needs sorting out. Buying here has become a lengthy and stressful shambles every time
Its such a shame. This site is the best thing to have ever happened to weed culture in the UK, entirely let down by this disfunctional and useless method of payment
Cost me over £40 today to send £200. Utter insanity. We NEED alternatives LB. BTC is going to be the death of the platform if we're not careful...
£30 in fees for a £35 order just can’t believe it!!!!
Does anybody actually know why this is happening???? Did an order a couple of weeks ago and the fees were normal
Does anybody actually know why this is happening???? Did an order a couple of weeks ago and the fees were normal
Btc volatility has been hugely positive recently - 20%-30% gains achieved over 30 day periods. Everyone wants to fill their wellies or take profits creating massive traffic on the blockchain. Miners can charge what they want to settle transactions. It’s proving that btc is utter shit when it comes to buying stuff! ..
Ordinals (pictures stored on a token) and BRC-20 (Shitcoins on BTC) are going nuts atm too doesn't help with fees as blocks are being spammed with shite now.
Network fees are currently absurd. Hopefully, administrators will explore alternative options. GAW
We should all go on strike. Would cause mayhem at Xmas & LB would have to pull the finger out to avoid a massive loss for them.
Just paid 6 quid to send 56 on exodus,it's shocking still but best I have seen it for a while, hope it will be down to normal before long
I'm sure that transaxe said litecoin would be an alternative payment option over a year ago, but nothing ever happened???
I just paid £36 in fees to get 0.03BTC from Bittylicious. Then it was nearly £10 in priority gas fees to send over that amount to Transaxe. It's much more expensive than usual as it's near 4% fees for the initial transaction, and that's usually 2-3% (so not massively more), but the fees to send are usually 1/10th of that.
How are peeps checking the transfer fee/ cost?
I only know wen I’m going to pay on coin base then I see the charges

Unfortunately looks like Coinbase is still charging way more than the fees on the mempool site. High priority is listed there as between $3 and $4 but Coinbase is still showing a £13 fee for a £20 transfer to Exodus. 😭 I really need to ditch Coinbase...
Did it process mate.otherlyether has posted just under here that his stuff didn’t process.
Thinking I may take the hit to order something off lb but not if it isn’t working still after paying fees
Thinking I may take the hit to order something off lb but not if it isn’t working still after paying fees
I have BTC in coinbase, need to order of LB but holding back till the high network fee comes down
Honestly these network fees are an absolute pisstake atm. We definitely need an alternative payment method on LB. I personally took the hit this time but I really can’t continue to use LB going forward if the fees stay this high, which is such a great shame because i love LB and it’s been nothing short of a god send since i’ve started using it and i’d be gutted to go back to my street dealer, but these fees leave me with no other choice
Even though my order has expired its now 8 days and my payment is still not confirmed, so my money is stuck in the blockchain for god knows how long. This is supposed to be a community based on trust. Id say that trust has been violated by LB administrators who still have not implemented any number of stable crypto alternatives after over a year of these ongoing ludicrous fee fluctations. Where in the world would you buy any other product where you have to throw your money into the void like this? It is truly ridiculous. Vendors are losing thousands and everyone is getting shafted using BTC. I just dont get it
Can anyone here help me out at all please? Ive had my order expire after 4 days waiting after paying 25 quid fees on 120 quid order. Apparently the payment is still loading on the blockchain despite the order having expired. My wallet stll shows the funds in it but cant send them anywhere as theyve already been started on the blockchain. Have reached out to both Cryptonic and Transaxe with no response, Vendor couldnt help either but seems hes just as fuming as me with at least 40 orders been waiting to confirm for a week or more. So much money being thrown in the air here by all involved with no clear way of sorting out. This is a horrific mess for all concerned
Only way to sort it quick is to repay the fees, but more.
Go to this link, add your wallet address and find the btc transaction id, the btc transaction that's stuck.
This is the general btc transaction id, has nothing to do with lb nor transaxe.
You can pm me this transaction id and i can check if you can repay the fees if you want and i'll tell you exactly how.
Just know this if you paid high fees sending btc from your wallet to transaxe then you're gonna have to pay even more fees to push it through, up to you if it's worth it or not.

I just buy direct from coinbase and do it at night time.
Normally under a £ for a 100 transaction??

It’s been £11 network fee to send from Coinbase for a week or so. Lowest it went to was £4 on Sunday morning
Finally I have been verified on coin base after many days. I will wait till Sunday morning to add funds as you say it's cheaper. I think coin base give £5 bonus on first top up so this should compensate for the high fees
Hmm 31 quid fees on a 17 quid order 😳😳
Am never paying that not as long as ive got a hole in my arse 😤
Am never paying that not as long as ive got a hole in my arse 😤
4 or 5 days ago it went down to about £5 late at night on CB so I managed to send some to my wallet.. tried more today and its £14, that's the highest I've ever seen it lol
You are better off adding cash and then using advance trade to buy. It’s £14 network fee to send at the moment it’s a joke
Am I right in believing LB don't accept LTC? Cos many other sellers onother websites state they can take litecoin as BTC fees are high at moment
Yeah it’s BTC only here and nobody can understand why they won’t add a cheaper faster alternative option
I only Dave debit card option to add money to coinbase, IV added £50 as a tester and they charged a £2 fee. Now when I want to send the BTC to coinbase wallet they are charging £14 fee. I also have a exodus wallet which tops up from whichever exchange that is giving the best rate (£9 fees) I'm abit confused. I'm wanting to buy a Oz which is 221dollars. Do I transfer from coinbase to exodus wallet and pay the £14 coinbase fee, do I pay the same fee again when sending from.exodus wallet to vendor. Or is it best to send from coinbase exchange to my coinbase wallet? What are people doing at the moment with fees being sold high
That's the transaction fee that's allways the same, we talking about the network fee here that you pay when transferring to wallet

Tl Dr : WANTED - Liberty cap magic mushrooms
Been dosing on half G for a week now, got a dog park that was once a golf course where we used to pick them as youths.
Some guy tho, every afternoon for a week got them all, was there for hours every day picking among the dog walkers.
I got a pocketful of the last of the year's pickings (image) today, the later in the season they're picked the stronger it seems.
Next year i'll be ready, i'm up at the crack of dawn anyways, i walked past them a couple times last week until i decided to go for it, the liberty's have been amazing, i just had a little one earlier and had a vry nice fuzzy warm glow from it.
I'm drying them out right now in a kitchen paper.

Im a fucking shroom noob so most of my experiences have been on LB I just dont have the time really to pick
I noted around 5 different mushroom types when out in the field, one of them looks very similar, you really need to know how they look.😁
All shrooms are the same tho, just different strengths, so they say anyways.👍

Are they still prolific? I have a mountain spot in mind for next week when it's supposed to not be raining.
Season has just finished, pretty much, i was too late also, planning big things for next year tho, the liberty's have been excellent this year.
I'd say it's still worth a punt. I'm no mycologist but I believe Libs prefer it a bit cooler than it's been recently in most of the UK, so the season may extend past the usual window if weather conditions allow. I've heard that the first ground frost is what finishes them off so you might still be ok depending on location.
I'm also looking for Wavy Caps this year after reading this article. Looks like they can be found Oct to Feb, and the fact they show blueing when bruised should help positive ID. 👍
Brilliant. 😁 🍄
Glad you managed to get some, gotta love nature's bounty.
Think we may have just come into the perfect weather for some of us so happy hunting!

See, that's what was always in my mind about the liberty cap gathering: get in before the 1st frost? Quite far from that here, fortunately. Some posters a couple of weeks ago thought the season had shifted forward?
Still plenty to be had 👀 I will post a topic on my page

I'm really enjoying the game of hunting little fungi.
I've seen horses,sheep,cows etc and a ufo.
The outdoors is a wonderful place when you recognise you are a part of it.
I've seen wood chippings scattered also. I was curious at first because there are very few trees. You have enlightened me 🙏

Vape and cartridges
Hey! I'm after a chargeable vape pen and carts that fit the pen from the same seller. I'm not wanting to buy pen/carts separately. Which vendors can currently offer this? Cheers all
Hi mate just got myself a yocan kodo pro off ebay it's awesome 9.99 look them on YouTube best 10 I've ever spent
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Nectar-Honeybee-Vaporizer-Variable-Rechargeable/dp/B099BNK63M/ref=mp_s_a_1_6?crid=TYE4E3HRVVZ8&keywords=nectar+vape&qid=1699787290&sprefix=nectar+vape%2Caps%2C85&sr=8-6
I use this for 510 carts, it’s been good so far - I’m not a heavy vape user but the battery lasts a couple of days for me.
I think the best bit is the cart is protected inside the vape body so you can put it in your pocket and less risk of snapping anything. ✌️

Any metalheads on here?
Hey guys hope you’re all having a cool weekend. Just wondering are there Any metalheads on LB? I love most metal but my fave genres are probably blackgaze and post black metal. I really like Alcest and Panopticon I’d say they’re the bands I’m listening to the most right now. I remember people telling me when I was a teenager I’d grow out of metal,well I’m in my 40s now and still listening just as much if not more. It really is a way of life. Love and peace.
The 90s had such amazing metal bands. So many genres were exploding and were so exciting. Wasn’t so keen on that rap metal mind. I loved RATM but the ones that followed like Limp Bizkit were pretty dumb.
Sorry dude didn’t mean to offend anyone. Just didn’t personally like Limp Bizkit. Sorry.
Oh sorry man I thought you meant I was preaching to you. Yeah I loved the first Korn album hated the 2nd but loved the 3rd album. Stopped following them after that but still like the odd track after the 3rd album. Alone I break is an awesome track.
I remember seeing Pantera at the Ozzfest back in 98. Amazing set and a wild pit not as crazy as the Soulfly pit a set later that was insane. Love early Deftones up to the White Pony album.
yes but thrash, osdm, 1st wave black metal and the list goes on. So quite a different list but yeah I'm a metalhead
Celtic Frost are probably my fave out of the 1st wave black metal bands. Did you not get on with the 2nd wave of black metal? There are some great bands.
No I do just lower down on my list. Celtic frost absolutely genius band although there was a time they were called death metal
Early Dimmu Borgir for me mate. First 2 albums are great(even the ripped off track on the 2nd album) went off them when they expanded their sound.
sorgens is one of my fave tracks pity m8 i love most of their stuff although my fave albums are Puritanical and In sorte. stormblast will always hold a special place in my heart..
Of course Screamo counts man! Love myself a bit of Mice&Men and Bring Me The Horizon. Not sure if they’re Screamo bands?
I'm mid-forties now and grew up on bands like Metallica, Pantera, Machine Head and NIN. I've always been into other stuff as well but it's what I mostly listened to during my teens and twenties.
I don't listen to metal as much as I used to however I've found the old adage that your tastes mellow with age to be untrue in my case. I listen to some much heavier, more extreme bands than I used to and I'm much more open to sub genres I wouldn't have considered before.
My current favourite heavy listen is Lullabies for Eternal Sleep by Apes. Hadn't heard of them until I read a brief review that described that EP as being sort of like post-metal if all the quiet bits were replaced with nasty grindcore. One listen and I'd bought the tracks off Bandcamp. The first track, Cornwall, is savage but has such an amazing groove too.
If you like blackened stuff then check out Apes' earlier album, Lightless. Different to the latest material but still bloody good.

I pretty much listen to every metal track thrown at me with passion :D.
I love albums in every genre.
Some of my favorites bands are Decapitated, Dimmu Borgir, TBDM, born of osiris, meshuggah, lamb of god, well theres too much really ^^..
Metal is definitely a way of life.
Recently i've been listening to the Nomad album by Kublai Khan (insane tone/sound) and a gradual decline in moral by Kim Dracula, pretty strange shit but i love it haha.

1."Reign in Bud" - Slayer (A stoner metal twist on Slayer's classic "Reign in Blood")
2."Black Sabbath's Munchies" - Black Sabbath (Featuring their heaviest hits to satisfy the munchies)
3."Master of Bongs" - Metallica (An epic blend of metal and cannabis-inspired anthems)
4."Weed the Lightning" - Megadeth (Thrashing through the green haze with high-intensity riffs)
5"Paranoid and Paranoider" - Black Flag (A punk-infused, paranoia-inducing masterpiece for the metalheads who like to keep it raw)

I go a lot of gigs and download/bloodstock festival. Some of the best music to have a smoke to.
Yeah probably the most community, friendly festival I’ve been to. Really chilled and there’s not too many people like major festivals.
lots of metal plays at the local gym, Sepultura, Nailbomb, SOAD, Pantera, Mastodon, Deftones, DOWN, Black Label Society, TOOL and some others I cant remember the name of
Seeing Municipal Waste again in October, really looking forward to that one
Recomendations wise, I've been really digging some of the "new wave trad" by the likes of Eternal Champion and Visigoth, super cheesy power metal about goblins and dragons, epic stuff...

Thanks for the recommendations man I’ll check them out. I’m seeing Alcest in October and can’t wait for that.
Must be more then a few metalheads here on LB for sure.
Right now I'm waiting for the re-recording by the Calavera brother's of the Morbid Visions record. Absolutely can't bloody wait for that! Artwork is on point and the sound, my goodness.
But otherwise, been on a death metal vibe recently - the new 200 Stab Wounds EP and the new Kruelty record basically.

Yeah I was thinking the same,that’s why I made the post just to see what bands everyone was into.
Oh if they get that right it should be awesome. Early Sepultura rocks. Love the Arise album lost interest around Roots. That album wasn’t for me. I really like Derrick on vocals even though a lot of Max fan boys gave him a hard time when he joined.

Tonight I've been listening to Cult of Luna and Boris. Last night it was Lamp of Murmuur and Fluisteraars. I'm in my 50s. Metal seems to make more sense the older I get but then the type of metal I listen to now is different from the metal I listened to at 16. Except for Sabbath. Always Sabbath 🤘Music just keeps on getting better.
Absolutely love Cult Of Luna their Salvation album was incredible! Can’t remember if it was their debut? Give Panoption a listen man especially there again into the light album it is pure genius. Austin Lunn plays over a dozen instruments on the album. Can’t wait to see them next month on their first ever UK tour. Always Iron Maiden for me mate though I do obviously love Sabbath.
Oh yeah I love Panopticon too. I was listening to And Again... last night. Also Botanist and Wolves In The Throne Room, sheer sheets of metallic sound, hypnotic riffs it's damn psychedelic as a genre in many ways. Also into stuff like Thou and Primitive Man, I was listening to the last Wormrot album the other day. There's just so much good stuff and such massive variety that it's impossible to not like something that's "metal" if you're into music. If anyone avoids metal they should take a deep dive into all the sub genres cos they'd be surprised at how much they would probably love. From Sunn O))) to Full of Hell and all the stops in between.
They’re ..again into the light album is so good. I found it very accessible compared to their earlier stuff. Still really enjoy their early folk metal inspired stuff. Kentucky is fantastic. I was lucky enough to see Wolves In The Throne Room a few years back. Beautiful gig. It was bombastic and majestic all at once. 🤘
I saw Panopticon a few years back over in Dutchie land, enjoyed them but haven't paid much attention to them since.Do you like Wayfarer? They do a similar type of thing kinda country tinged BM.
Really like Wayfarer too and a Scottish band called Saor. They play a similar style to Panopticon. Can’t wait to see them live,I’ve waited years for them to visit the UK. Gotta travel a few hundred miles but it will deffo be worth it. Much love.
Mate it looks epic!! Panopticon are headlining day one and are playing their entire Roads To The North album!! The entire weekend looks genuinely great too.
Dad got me into metal with sabbath i have to agree nearly 40 now .... So many metal genres would not exist without them ..
Yeah Sabbath are definitely the godfathers of metal. Without them half the genres today wouldn’t exist.
and if you into black metal check out Blackbraid they just relesed their second album its Native american black metal if you like melodic stuff check em out i feel they are only going to get better...
Thanks for the recommendation man. I’ll check them out later on they sound very intriguing.

Cali imports vs quality UK weed
Just had a question for the community - my friend and I have always had a bias against trying imported Cali weed. Not because of the quality of what's grown there, I'm sure it's amazing. But, firstly, worry over being sold fake stuff on the street at a high price (not a concern here with trusted vendors of course). And, above all, just worry about the transit process, not knowing what goes on, whether it might get sprayed with preservatives, or something else like that.
I just ordered some from the Pontiff (he said most of his Midzotics are Cali, plus other imports), and I cannot wait to try it for the first time, it sounds amazing based on reviews.
Anyway, is there any foundation for my concerns about imported stuff in general? I'm sure it's grown extremely well at source, and people are clearly loving it, but yeah I mean about the transit... Might be a stupid question, but I'm just genuinely clueless about it, as I bought directly from a very small, friendly group of UK growers for a long time (sadly, it disbanded recently).
My heart has always leaned heavily towards quality, local UK growers (also having a friend who used to be a small scale one, part of that group) - but should I just embrace both?
Grateful for any thoughts.

It used to annoy me a bit that people were so obsessed with 'Cali'. The whole thing just seemed like utter nonsense but thesedays I just figure if that's what certain people want then let them have it. No harm done (except to their wallet).
I'm sure there are some banging Cali products out there, I know TGD have a solid reputation for their imports.
To me it though it seems a bit like Cristal Champagne. Sells at about £300 a bottle and I've been guilty of paying that myself for a mates stag do. Is it any better than Veuve Clicquot at £50 a bottle? Well everything is subjective but personally I don't think so.
Not to mention even Veuve is outclassed in blind taste tests by supermarket brands almost every Christmas. I think a year or so ago Aldi was smashing it with a £15 bottle of fizz people couldn't get enough of.
But you're not going to look very cool turning up to a stag do with a bottle of Aldi's finest...
So it has its place.
The idea that just because its grown in California automatically makes it superior is (in my humble option) very misguided. But we've all got opinions. 😂
Interestingly my grow shop guy was talking to me about synthetic vs organic bud hardener a few months ago. Synthetic being PGR, organic tends to focus more on raising PK levels and also adding things like mollases etc (I'm no expert I don't use either) and when I asked him what the benefit of the synthetic over the organic was... he said
"it all depends whether your customers want that whole 'Cali' look. If that's what they want go synthetic"
That about summed it up for me.
As I said, there is genuine high quality California weed going round, even on here, but there's also a hell of a lot of neo PGR riddled 'Cali' rubbish that's probably UK grown and is sold at an elevated price because you can play marbles with it. 😉
Not to mention the points PP has made which are entirely valid. It seems we're getting the dregs from the west coast that aren't ending up being burned.
Anyway, live and let live. If people want it and enjoy it, and are willing to pay for it, then that's totally up to them.
Just my 2p as always.
Cheers. BB 🍻🇬🇧🐶

Thanks for your thoughts BB :) - for me, the thing that matters most is the homegrown, organic, care aspect. These plants are living things, so how could all of that (and the reverse - chemicals etc) not have an impact on the quality of the high and any negative aspects? Some of the best stuff I've ever smoked was grown by my friend here, so I never felt the need to get Cali at all. Definitely always seemed like a bit of a fad to me, as you were saying (the idea that it's automatically superior), plus I'm paranoid about the potential chemicals.
Can't wait to try your stuff! As I said before I think, I came to Little Biggy above all to find people like you and the Druids and others :) that's all I need. But also exactly, each to their own - whatever blows your socks off ;)

I have a similar bias but it's partly based on experience. I'd never tried 'Cali' before joining LB and having tried some of the low and mid tier options from reputable vendors, I've given up on it as a bad lot. The lows really are poor quality and the mids I've had weren't much better. A lot of the imported bud has obviously been grown using PGRs (not what I want to consume) which makes it fall foul of the strict US standards and means it gets shipped over here to us by the ton. Lots of UK buyers seem willing to lap it up just because of the Cali tag but I prefer to stick to well-grown UK flower any day.
I've not tried the $120 for 3.5g top shelf stuff and I doubt I ever will. I see no reason to spend that on an eighth when the same money could get me 14g of homegrown fire

We're cut from the same cloth! I'd love to buy an import pack from TGD but if I can get a half I'll always take that option.
I think good weed is good weed regardless of where it was grown. For peace of mind I think if you know someone who grows from seed then they're usually a safe bet. There's a reason why British Bulldog sells out crops in no time at all for example. I much prefer 'springier' (is that a word?) buds to the rock solid nugs that are sometimes sold as Cali. Definitely want to avoid any PGR shit.

Thanks for the replies! Didn't have any for days and then came back to all this :)
Yeah this just confirms my instinct...I didn't even think of chemicals during the grow process (as I just assumed some kind of regulation completely naively). But I'm paranoid by precisely stuff like the PGR you both describe. And the lack of freshness of the bud or the rock-hard quality. Completely agree about growing from seed. For me that kind of thing is much more important than a fad or hype (not to mention the cost). Btw the Midzotics from the Pontiff were very nice, great flavour and highs (and only a bit more expensive) - but I also later got some UK grown Blue Dream from Green Cat which is fantastic. And some UK homegrown weed has been the best I've ever smoked (I've never smoked in the US itself). I'm sure there's a place for top shelf, real stuff, but it's not worth the cost to me, except as a curiosity - I'm def sticking almost exclusively to well-grown UK flower!

This comment by oldmaned all day.
The us market is getting more strictly regulated by the day! If you've used pesticides or growth hormones etc your crop will not be accepted in the legal market over there.
And...
Why would they want to sell their wares at $800 a pound when they get that for an oz over here 🤔

There is huge overproduction in California (and Canada are destroying literally thousands of tonnes!), so exports are easily and cheaply bought with the shipping cost and risk being the key factors. The fact that an estimated 60-70% of users have “gone back to the streets” citing quality and taxation as the main reasons suggest that mass production is not the nirvana it was intended to be.
I don’t think there is any doubt that decent UK growers can spank Cali mids and lows with their eyes shut and we are lucky here to have some class growers.
Top shelf Cali is a fine product indeed. Can it be faked?, oh yeah, you can buy hundreds of different branded bags online. Is it too expensive?..well, that depends on your budget. I’m happy I’ve bought the Cali packs I have- 100% genuine and a wonderful vape. A great treat for a special occasion but overall I prefer to spend time watching for the next release from our UK growers!👀👍

Completely with you pollypuff20 :) thanks for the info, I didn't know that about the overproduction.
big up to the UK growers, I have my eyes on their next releases and can't wait!

I agree with many of the comments and the point of your post. I’ve had mostly negative experiences with imported bud, like someone else said it’s usually not that fresh and nearly always overpriced low/mid. Plus I see all the round up and poisons in the American food chain and dread to think what trickery can be used on weed production. I will always cluck for some proper uk homegrown, in my opinion it’s unbeatable. But each to their own. That being said I was having a crisis last night looking at THC’s new offering of the Lemon jars for $190. I sat for around half an hour debating if I should order or not, in the end I’ve decided to stay sober for abit longer. My last order on here didn’t come and I think it’s time to give myself a break.
Yeah exactly! The freshness aspect, the (scary US) chemicals, the cost...I'd rather try the real deal in the US itself someday. Proper UK homegrown all the way :)
Cali has become a poison chalice.
When people hear it they have the instant expectation that it will be of better quality than the UK flower they normally get.
It's such a vague term that in reality means absolutely nothing here.
So I think even if you have some unbelievable bud from West coast , it is best not to label it cali unless you want to, essentially (no offence)target it towards noobs here.

I’ll make it easy…
No it is not worth it!!!!!
While I’ve not wrote them all up, I’ve smoked some of the cheapest on here to the top packs (Cali and UK)and grown my own.
I’ve had cheap better than Cali and grows better than all. Does this mean one is better overall, does it fuxk. Waaaayyyyy too many variables and phenotypes at play…
The price per g is a joke and massively diminishing returns on flavour and potency!
Sometimes returning worse flavours or PERSONAL effects for that user!!!
The biggest take away id love the world of smokers to see, is:
The more that pay it the more that sell it and prices continue to go up!
I’d prefer recommending you all decent buds at half the price of Cali packs, EVERY TIME!’
even for treats, we just feed the system!!!!
These plants have roughly same life cycles and ain’t hard to grow (growing well is another matter) 😂

I'm with you - new to here but the UK Blue Dream I got from Green Cat has been lovely and a great price. And I'm (im)patiently waiting to try BB's and the Druids' stuff :) always on the lookout for some great UK bud!
And you're right too about all the variables (in my completely inexpert opinion, but that's what my grower friend has said)
And you're right too about all the variables (in my completely inexpert opinion, but that's what my grower friend has said)
Are you typically just paying for a taste ? Are effects no better do you think?
Iv never had the expensive stuff and I use bud as a lot I’m sure do for some issues I have. To the point I don’t give a shut about how it tastes, if it makes me feel ok I would smoke hey.

I think there is some correlation between flavour and the quality of the high, in general. But I am sure the obsession with Cali taste is overhype as well, and it's not a guarantee of a great high, or my first priority. Also, it for sure doesn't justify the huge mark up in any case. And especially for more medicinal use, as long as it alleviates your problem, that's the most important thing. Oh also, I've had some absolutely delicious UK bud.
A lot of Cali isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.
The bud coming from the UK atm is on par if not better then most of the mids and lower garbage that’s available now.
And then you have the time factor. For me especially it could take anywhere up to 2/3 weeks to get it delivered. Not so fresh when it comes & under p to get it sold.
Bigger fish may have a better experience.
That’s my 2cents on it
Good luck 👍🏻

Yeah that's what I was thinking instinctively - how could it be fresh? And justify the huge mark up.

The ‘Cali’ we get here is pants in comparison to the weed Americans smoke… I’ve never bought tops but can get mids for 3.5 for £30 locally.. anyways…
I went Cancun in May and got some ‘Cali’ from the Americans and the weed they’re smoking is nothing like what we get over here.
It tastes exactly as it smells, like most I can’t see how that’d be possible if it needed to travel over to the UK…
One thing though, this post has made me think I’ll even stop getting the mids I get and stick to getting some good UK on LB… someone made me want to try Pontiff - always thought prices were quite high but have seen a few peeps big them up now

Mushroom Microdose: optimal dose?
Hi Biggas
I have been buying 0.3g caps and splitting them in 0.1g for a microdose effect.
I think 0.3g is a bit too much, am after the stealth side of microdosing here: when others cannot tell that you are on shrooms BUT you definitely can ;-)
What do you guys think is the optimal dose?
Cheers

Cheers
Guides I've read online seems to class anything sub 0.5 as a microdose. Like with everything, how much you take really changes from person to person and what you personally want from it. I microdose between 0.2 and 0.4 depending on the strain. I always start with 0.2 - 0.3 and see how I react. I can then always increase my dose should I need to 👍
If 0.1g works for you then there's no point changing it

Agreed, the strain does make quite a difference. I usually microdose with Golden Teachers and find that 0.25g is about right for me. I then got some APE Reverts from SOTL and 0.25g of those was a bit too much, almost felt like a threshold dose tbh.
Hi OldManEd
Thanks for sharing, this is what I am looking for i.e staying under the threshold dose.

Hi PurplePunch
Thanks for sharing, 0.1g is OK but I feel I could push it a bit further.
I'll give 0.2 a shot next time :-)

Hi bro, I'm offering a $5 3.5 of golden teachers to the first 25 orders I receive. Would love to see what you think of them. Enjoy your trip.
For me around the 0.15g mark hits the spot and keeps me in that zone. It feels like I'm walking along the beach on holiday with the sun on my shoulders, if you know what i mean ; )
Hit me up if you want me to send a little sample through!

Hey Family,
We would say 0.3-0.5 is a microdose! You can try our CaliGold Chocolate bars that are 4G per bar and 0.4 per square. Alternatively you can cut the square into 4 pieces and that would make 0.1G each bite :) Try us out and you will not be dissapointed!
Peace and Respect

What’s up biggas,
Accepting I’ll probably use weed for my mental issues for life, I’ve got a fat legit prescription covering many strains 🥳
Thought I’d write up here to help anyone thinking about it.
Firstly, it ain’t cheap! No 10 quid NHS style prescriptions unfortunately.
Can take long to get initial consultation to your herb, so stock up better than Apex did, or end up buying brown terpless street weed
yeah my 1 guy up these ends goes from dog shit to epic, but it’s random 😂
My consultant was awesome, knew how to approach 1 of my conditions (PTSD) better than “conventional” medicine doctors!
Chatted for 20mins then he basically said, here’s the menu, order 60g of what you want and mail me 🤤🥳😂
That feeling was like, when you first joined LB but legit! 😜
For science and you lot, I literally ordered all the most expensive ones that were in stock.
Rapid delivery, and stealth was shit 😂 my postie was literally sniffing and laughing (I had a terpless joint on the go so couldn’t have been that)
Opened them all to give a whiff and tbh, only one smelt of nothing.
Cracked open the Farm Gas first, won’t lie a lesser content creator than Apex with green fur, might’ve tipped us off on this one ❤️
REALLY gassy and buds look divine with good spring and not like hay as I expected this medical to be.
Builder gives it “shit, mr Apex that new one stinks” he’s upstairs! 🤤
Smoked a joint and absolutely delish, washed it down on the mighty and able to hit 181c with no terp tickle, clouds of yummy Vapor and I feel medicated to fuck 🔥
I expect some lesser flower to come in this batch, but will update as I go.
Not that I really cared when vaping in public or anything, but it’s nice to know if a dog walking Karen comes over moaning to me while I vape and fish, I can now inform her that I’m just taking my medicine.
Old Apex would’ve slung the bitch in the lake to hide the body 😂
Anyway, hopefully helpful to anyone considering and feel free to hit me up with any questions 🤜❤️

Welcome to the party pal. I’ve been legal for a year now. I had huge problems with work but it got sorted and they are fine now.
In my opinion people who can afford it should. The more of us jumping through the loop hole the more successful it will be, then more rich people will back it.
They will have to decriminalise it.
Just a tip EMT 20% THC from sapphire is £5.50 a gram (10 grams for £55). I pay that so I can spend more on black market products.
Good luck mate and thanks for bringing it into the spotlight brother..

Thanks for the cheaper offering mate, I’ll try get some of those if available to balance out my heavy usage and give verdict.
For the strains I’ve tried so far, no complaints. One non smeller but smoked nice.
Couple drier than I like but brother Boveda will sort them out.

Good work Skunky👍
Although my understanding is that despite having a prescription it remains illegal to smoke cannabis flower in the UK. All that’s changed is that Plod have agreed that they will still investigate but where no other offences are apparent they will take no further action where prescriptions exist although they will record the incident. Smoking in public remains a grey area and there were three test cases going before the courts but I don’t know if there has been an outcome?…driving under the influence is another hot set of test cases.
So when Karen comes over for a moan mate she is perfectly entitled to because you are a stinky law breaking skunk (no offence). Just one with a prescription 😂🦨😂

Nah, the prescription gives you legal right to smoke it
If you have a script and drive you just need to not be impared. it can be in your system cos it's medical. drug swabs dont matter. Its based on impairement once you have a script

Can you show me where they changed the law?, because that’s my point- they didn’t, and certainly not in a public place. But hey, it’s just semantics, I get it that scrips work for some people and you are not going to get done if you play by the rules…
I’d expect approach varies due to knowledge and attitudes exhibited.
I’d respect people and their boundaries as that’s just me the friendly (but stinky) 🦨 ❤️
Mrs Apex was spitting blood as she thought could always beat me with the illegal stick.
The mighty tastes extra good tonight 😂

Smoking is not how it’s prescribed hence the vape mate? So would think legal to take dose at required time on lake this way?
Joints are no no, I’m really close to sacking it off as prefer mighty mostly now 🥳
Or can I not take my benzodiazepines while fishing?🤔
Laws a mess and needs updating really, driving especially.
Though I hate to drive even slightly impaired!
Would only vape on lake now.

Well I think “smoking” actually means “using” in this context but yeah you are right that it needs clarification which is why those cases going through the courts are set up test cases.
I think with prescription pills there is a specific defence written into the law. With cannabis it’s currently just an agreement amongst Plod.
Seriously, is anyone getting into trouble for personal use whether they’ve got a scrip or not?…I can’t remember the last time I heard of any?…

I’d hope not mate, don’t see harm done by weed I’m never smoking infront of kiddos or anyone really 😂
Hopefully law gets with times, fucking stupid at times.
Wish people could grow a few without fear too as is a great hobby and those skills can be applied to your garden (he says looking smuggly as his butterfly haven of colour that’s winning “neighbour wars: summer edition”

Was looking at going through this process myself but I seen alot of people say that you have to attend mandatory consultations quite frequently. Not only is that a pain in the ass, but the cost that comes with it really adds to the overall cost and makes it pricey
Is this true? How frequently do you need to attend, and what is the price of the appointments?
Is this true? How frequently do you need to attend, and what is the price of the appointments?
Think this varies on clinic.
Mine =
Initial consultation 150
1 month follow up 50
Then think it’s 6 months or year at 50
While it adds up, gives apex chance to review the strains back to doc on what they are targeting.
Same I did with conventional mind numbing medicine
The more I get the easier to select from available that will work for me come repeat time, which is free just the money for herb.
It’s not cheap, but so far my experience and bud quality has been fine for that extra piece of mind.
And now also “Mrs apex, it’s medicine” 😂🥳😜

Loads of flowers
Lots of oils varying in strength and sizes.
Vape carts and vape carts with battery. 0.5 and 1mg
Think they were like 100odd for a 1g pen though, definitely at the high end of the menu.

Wow I had no idea , appreciate the info. Will be looking into it again as I use 510's all the time 👌
Let us know mate, and if anyone else jumped in.
I’m late to the party but quality has been ok, some better than others like always.
Dw still ordering a couple of things on here for variety 😂

Hey Apex,
Amazing content, I’ve been toying with the idea myself. The cost was always a bit hard to stomach tho. However I think the peace of mind being legal is most likely worth it.
I imagine I would feel like every kid at Christmas combined if my consumption was legal, I’ve been dreaming about if for literally decades.
Who did you use if you don’t mind my asking? I’m looking at mamedica. As per our green furry friend suggestion.
Also I wonder, if you let the prescription lapse, I.e do not attend the follow up can you just show your last prescription or the old packing as proof as prescription? Looking to see if I can avoid the follow on costs.
I’m currently trying to get access to my medical records but my gp is a bit useless.
So all in you were looking at roughly £200 for a 6 month prescription + cost of medicine (do you have to use their weed to be legal or can I continue to source my own?) and roughly how long did it take from enquiry to receiving your paperwork?
Cheers,
Papps.

Technically your weed in pots should be prescription to be legit.
Not sure they’d check strain though…. While I wouldn’t promote I’m sure some just get a wee bit legit and top up their prescription 10g pot 🤷♂️
I went Mamedica, strain selection was key to me as I’ve chonged a lot in my years 😂
They were great and didn’t try push anything, but offered advice and then said pick from the menu.
However, it can get costly - I went mad last month to my detriment and picked all the absolute fire strains around 10-11.50 per gram!!
But it was absolutely banging and better than a good few on here!
From initial payment to my first consultation it was 4 weeks!!! Then + 1 week to receive meds on a Saturday delivery (you get multiple text so no postie peaking required) 👍
Mamedica will chase your records, my gp was on it and I just replied yes to access on an email I was ccd on.
My history is long and fat and they still nailed that bit in a week. Upload your id too as soon as you can, more chance to get appointment brought fwd if you can be flexible.
You’re not forced to buy your max prescription amount so can do in bits, or just get smaller one month and let them know.
Initial consultation = 4 weeks
First legal delivery = 5 weeks
Follow up consultation = 8 weeks
Now I’m on repeat which is ordering through phone!
And yeah can use an older pot for a bit, I.e would be hard to blag it’s the same 10g from 2020 😂
They can also rub out from ink wear, I fondle mine regularly and seen them go completely
Not sure they’d check strain though…. While I wouldn’t promote I’m sure some just get a wee bit legit and top up their prescription 10g pot 🤷♂️
I went Mamedica, strain selection was key to me as I’ve chonged a lot in my years 😂
They were great and didn’t try push anything, but offered advice and then said pick from the menu.
However, it can get costly - I went mad last month to my detriment and picked all the absolute fire strains around 10-11.50 per gram!!
But it was absolutely banging and better than a good few on here!
From initial payment to my first consultation it was 4 weeks!!! Then + 1 week to receive meds on a Saturday delivery (you get multiple text so no postie peaking required) 👍

Amazing! Thanks for taking the time to post such a detailed reply. I appreciate your kindness.
Im very tempted to go for it, I don’t know why but I do feel strangely apprehensive for whatever reason, that said I tend to overthink things a tad.
Yes the price per grams on some of the flower had me shook. How’d it compare to the top wares on here? I can imagine favourably.
So very happy this is now a possibility, even if a slight bit expensive. I assume with time prices will become more affordable, or I hope so at least.
Cheers.

Happy to help mate.
Firstly no need for apprehension ❤️
If you have condition that previously been treated they will look after you.
While it medication, it’s in their interest to sign you up for the cash. This being said it NEVER felt like that, in fact my doc kept highlighting 6.50 per g and Greedy apex be like nah 😂😂😂
In terms of bud price and quality it ranges from “it gets you medicated” to “fuck me it’s better than top shelf”
I go sniffing around on medbud wiki and YouTube, to research strains and what not, so even my lesser ones were better than expected.
I’ve smoked from $30-$120 per 3.5 on here. I think the very best ones of smoked are on par with many of the “cali” labels on here.
TGDs packs were the next level above.
Weed prices are fucked imo, medical uk is FAR too expensive as is loads on here atm.
The trouble is, if smokers keep paying the tip prices it continues and gets worse.
Same happened with my corals mate, slap a sexy name on it like “Nuclear Buddha Finger” and something once common is now “rare”.
I get the odd original strain being kept going by a mother plant “could” warrant a higher price point due to actual rarity. But ALL these plants have a short life cycle, so they are just cashing people out from getting natural plant based meds 🤦♂️

Update:
Had follow up appointment and as good as the first, well better actually.
Gave apex reviews of the strains, I think he knows my real identity 😂
And sacked off a few for some more.
For anyone not happy with their provider, well impressed with mine as treated like adult and can order what strains I want from the menu.
25 quid to transfer I think, and no I don’t get paid by them or anyone else 😂

Are disposable vapes getting banned UK?
The Daily Telegraph reported that the government is set to ban single-use vapes as early as next week to stop nicotine addiction among children. Asked about the reports this morning, the science and technology secretary said the government had been "looking into this"... What do you guys think doses this carry any weight??
They are chucked on the floor all over the gaff!
I’m no just stop oil kinda Apex, but these seem bad to be left around.
Vapes can be great for people coming off serious nico addictions, but then I always steer people to a big battery, tank and juice combo as much cheaper in long run

I would say it’s probably a good thing that teens won’t be getting as easily addicted to nicotine, however I do think adults should still be able to choose to put whatever they want in their body even if it’s not good for them, it’s a tricky one
Bullshit as usual. Overreach of a nanny state which is increasingly where we are heading. And people are asking for it as you can see because they have been conditioned to think that banning things is always the answer. Why not just force bland packaging as they did with tobacco?
Disposable vapes aren't a necessity. As apex points out you can get a box mod or rechargeable and fill the tank yourself. In London I see just as many school kids with disposable vapes as adults so there is a valid point there. Also the materials it's made from are indeed not very kind to the environment. I can't think of a single reason someone would need a disposable vape over a reusable one and it really is a mark of our throw away society and complete disregard for resources and recycling. I'm not an activist or anything but we all need to do our bit.
The environment and waste thing isn't really a very good argument for banning it if it's not even the reason they are giving.
I don't really recall proclaiming it was a necessity. But regardless, what logic makes it OK to ban something because it isn't a necessity? Ideology. That's exactly what.
What I was pointing out and asking is why is the answer to ban everything rather than encourage more responsible use or regulate the manufacturers to have standards for the waste and goddam it stop shops from selling them to kids.
They always use playing on people's general care for their children like this and it's getting nauseating that people continually fall into the trap.
Why should the convenience aspect be ruined for people who want to pay extra for that?
I spend 10 minutes doing my plastic and metal recycling once a week. Is that for nothing or are there things made of plastic and metal that can be recycled?
Getting to a place where the government is banning things rather than attempting to make the market behave more responsibly, we are ripe for some tyranny. Seriously.
Those of you sleepwalking through these times are pushing the rest of us that want our freedoms left alone off the edge of a cliff.
Meaning well is not all that's required here I'm afraid. The times are rather more serious than that.

But what would be likely to have more of an impact?
A) ask people to sell ethically, use and dispose ethically and hope for the best
B) remove the issue entirely
People can't be trusted, people selling things will generally place profits above morals, and walking to the bin would be more effort than throwing it on the floor and so we have literally millions thrown all over the place.
If there was a vote, id vote ban them all day long.
Having the freedom to vape is fine, having a disposable with more issues than tangible benefits is just illogical.

"People can't be trusted" as a rationale on it's own is too subjective and too facile in my opinion.
Without realising I think alot are becoming OK with authoritarianism.

Do people know it's wrong to sell vapes to kids? Or to litter? But still, it happens.
People being untrustworthy is inherently objective and you can find examples of untrustworthy or unscrupulous individuals from the very start of recorded history. Conjecture is not a valid argument man.
People being untrustworthy is inherently objective and you can find examples of untrustworthy or unscrupulous individuals from the very start of recorded history. Conjecture is not a valid argument man.
Examples are not conclusion though. "People being untrustworthy is inherently objective" is a totally subjective statement, with only the limited examples you give as evidence. If you don't mind me saying, it's quite a bizarre, and typically schozoid way to view the world..
The examples you mention seem to be cherry picked to support your position rather than a wide ranging array of incontrovertible examples that humans can't be trusted with anything ever.
Again, the whole premise is a reductive perversion of what I see.
Saying I am making conjecture by not accepting a subjective statement like "humans can't be trusted" is in fact an objective statement does not make it so does it? It means that you and I have divergent opinions, not that your claim is correct because yoi provide a handful of examples and a statement about history which is no stronger argument than me telling you that I lost my wallet in LIDL carpark last week and somebody handed it in with all the money still there.
Britain came together and ended slavery without being forced. Is that the footprint of an untrustworthy species?

Also you are entitled to your own opinion, but the fact of the matter is people are liars, cheaters, thieves and generally have self interest at the top of their priority list. There are exceptions to the rule of course but even someone as lofty as old mother Theresa has been demonstrable found to be self interested and untrustworthy.
Slavery is not a matter of trust, but ethics at large. Speaking exclusively about trust are you able to give an example to demonstrate as a species we are honest and trustworthy? Do you have antivirus on your PC? Why if we are so wholesome?
Do you lock your door at night? Why?
Do you leave your wages lying on the street? Why?
I think you are just trying to argue for arguments sake, we are the least trustworthy species on the planet.

I am yes entitled to my opinion and trying to remain respectful so I'm not too sure why you are trying to act like I am being difficult because I totally disagree with your position and am willing to continue to tell you why.
You have claimed something is objective and I have simply demonstrated why it cannot be objective.
I am trying to argue for what I actually believe, and I find it hard to believe that humans are only as trustworthy as the least trustworthy human in existence, which is the narrative you are trying to portray as inarguable here. To me that seems not only erroneous but also an awful, miserable philosophy to live one's life by. It nearly guarantees that you won't enjoy most aspects of your life.
The nature of protecting yourself against bad consequences because you have something worth protecting does not mean that you trust nobody.
In my village, there is a farm and unmanned farm shop with an honesty box. Still there to this day and I and my neighbours use it regularly to get fresh eggs, fruit and veg. That's an anecdote..it supports my argument but it does not make me objectively correct does it? I think the truth is more complicated and grey than you are prepared to admit.
There's also a take one leave one book cabinet in the village centre. Yet to see anybody abuse it or set it on fire.
Your logic would naturally lead one to conclude that the existence of bad is proof of the non existence of good. We know that isn't true. That is genuine fringe thinking.

How about the XL Bully ban? Overreach of a nanny state? or only sensible action after so many brutal attacks?
Put them in plain collars maybe? Ask breeders to only sell to responsible people please?

I am no canine expert. But I have always believed that a dog is a result of it's environment over it's genes.
I have known some exceptionally placid and lovely rottweilers for example.
There have been 4 fatal XL bully attacks of a total 6 fatal dog attacks this year. The truth is they are responsible for a large percentage of fatal attacks.
Are you telling me you believe that is more down to the genetics or criminally negligent ownership of the breed?
If the former is substantially true, then a ban is probably just given the fatalities.
The wider point being, when did banning everything become our first port of call?
It's a beautiful test run for the social engineers and think tanks.
Watching them manipulate the Overton window amongst the oblivious whilst we all get wound up and divided over disposable vapes 😬.

The temperament they have and damage they do is down to genetics. Just as hunting dogs are innately predisposed (I have pointers).
'Britain came together and ended slavery without being forced.'
Yeah what? It took William Wilberforce 20 years of campaigning within Parliament to end slave owning here - by way of a Govt ban. Then another 30 years to end it in the colonies, also by law.
Not every action of Govt is overreach in my view, as long as they remember who works for who.

Well I will concede that you have more dog knowledge than I, which is not difficult. But I'm not trying to die on the XL Bully Hill as much as the "ban everything I don't like" is not the answer hill.
So do you think taking 20 years of campaigning to ban a practice as old as time and as prevelant as slavery shows that we are inherently untrustworthy?
Seems a little bit like looking too hard for ideals in the past.
We were the first to do it and had absolutely no economic motivation to do so. It was a purely moral step to take and lots of rich, influential people had to be taken on to stop it.
CRT makes it easy to look at the slave trade through the lense that it started with the transatlantic one. Not true.

Waste is one of the reasons given by local councils.
Protecting children is another.
The plastic parts are recyclable - once collected, separated, cleaned of nicotine and the battery metals recovered. There's also the packaging, clearing empties from the streets and daily fires in landfills.
We're all on a site to buy illegal goods using our bitcoins, so not really blind sheep supporting a nanny state.
If markets could behave responsibly disposables wouldn't exist, and cigarettes would have gone 50 years ago. It's just about personal profits whilst the wider costs are on us.
My understanding is that disposables exist because tobacco funded lobbyists pushed for the 2ml limit which favours their replacement for the dwindling cig market. They just got outperformed by the Chinese.
Completely agree with you on the Online Safety Bill.

I think there is alot of validity to points made in your response.
I 100% disagree with you that banning totally is the right thing to do in most circumstances.
That is just asking for a nanny state and I don't understand how that is not obvious.
But...
Simply being on here does not make you immune to propaganda.
If you have seen the big thread about covid, it is very clear that many users here are absolutely sheep. Nasty, blind, gatekeepers wet dream type sheep. Present company excluded given we are having a sensible, enjoyable discussion right here.

Because they feel people can't be trusted to do the right thing annd most people cant , not everyone is as elevated as us Biggas :D
If you are right, we are facing certain state tyranny in the next 10 years. Likely that will mean that the type of government available is indistinguishable from the CCP.
This is probably supported by the "buildings energy performance bill" and "online safety bill" recently passed in Parliament without a whimper.

You're spot on here Ess. The over-reach is happening every day and no-one seems aware.
Did you see the gene-editing bill??!!
The "energy bill" will see you put out of your house, and much more.
Massive US style bills are being passed in the UK with so many vaguely defined terms (e.g. 'legal but harmful'), that can be defined later with Statutory instruments, passed by corrupt parliaments. Like they were doing through covid - putting instruments on the table at 9pm on a Sunday night when no-one was there to object.
Many thoughts are already illegal as our friend Eric Blair already knew would happen many years ago...

1984 bro even Tolkien predicted this shit he spoke about it at one of his dinners but he spoke in code. If you ever find it listen to it and think, Hobbits = common folk and wizards = politicians
True but then you still have to problem of waste and thats whats more important i feel.. But saying the main reason is kids is just not the case. It's so more people listen if they said it was just because of the waste then not as many people would care, I get how they work.
They are off their heads bro are they gonna ban fruit cider and flavored beers now also ?? i don't understand how they say its aimed at children just because of the flavours ...
The plan is to outlaw disposables, not fruit flavoured vape.
The waste is phenomenal, as is the take up from children, the strength is 2% by default which is considerably higher than most e-juices before the rules changed. Shockingly addictive
These problems were far less an issue with refillable vapes which didn't have pride of place behind every convenience shop counter at pocket money prices.

The waste alone is enough for me - more than enough.
I'd argue the same as anyone against banning vapour, but disposables can fcuk right off.

Totaly agree about the waste, My olds wont listen when i tell em to stop buying cheap lighters lol but hey if it cuts waste im all for it .
Seems adults aren't allowed to like sweet or fruity things. 😕 It was the same back when bottled vape juices became popular, anything other than tobacco flavour was decried as being targeted at children.
I get the waste/environmental impact side of it but can't agree with the rationale that naming them after sweets or having bright packaging means they're actually intended for children.
If so many underagers are buying them then surely there should be more of a focus on preventing those sales and imposing hefty penalties for any shopkeepers who get caught selling nicotine to kids?

Far more complex/time consuming and expensive to police corner shops than it is to ban them
Fair point, the usual lack of resources means they can't enforce existing rules so have to make new, even stricter ones to compensate.
agreed it seems too heavy handed maybe they don't have money in the companys like they do with beer and cigs??

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.👊

Liberty V5 cartridges
Anyone else having issues with these carts?
They are very poor in my opinion. I have them on the lowest setting, still burning coils constantly horrible burnt taste not even half way through the 0.5ml carts. I have 4 out of 7 not usable.

Yeah, I've only had one but it gave me loads of issues. I think it's due to there only being 2 intake holes which don't seem to allow enough liquid to be drawn into the wick, especially when it's something as viscous as distillate. I used regular ejuice for a few years to get off tobacco and built my own coils for vaping that - if there was ever an issue with burnt tastes, it was almost always due to poor wicking.
The CCell style carts have 4 intake holes and I got a Nectar cart from VapePlug which has 5, so the Liberty could definitely do with at least 2 more IMO.

Good old style soap bar?
I seem to be in a hash phase so have been trying a few. If you're still looking then get in on Eddy's Lebanese Blonde while it lasts. 👍 I got 7g …
I was literally coming here to write exactly that.
I can verify this. Get the Red Leb :)

SR3 stamp from shroom of the loom is very much like ye olde soap I’ve got me self nearly 10g of the stuff
It’s not the strongest but I like it,beautiful stuff when vaped through my Xmax v3 pro, I like as much if not more than the expensive filtered hash
I think Shroom of the loom might be on holiday at the moment and I think they might be running out of the stuff as well because they only selling 3.5g
I’m oldish and I definitely recommend it
Good luck.

Not tried the SR3 but it seems pretty popular. I enjoyed the Audi hash that shroom had a while back.
Mr B has a nice morrocan Sputnik at the mo.
I also think TGD’s Pakistani and Afghan are really great.
The Afghan high is great, it’s kind of potent yet functional and leaves you grinning and the Pakistani gives me proper red eye and a great nights sleep!
I’ve ordered some of eddy’s red and blonde lebs too which I can’t wait to try and report back once they land.
I don’t miss picking bits of plastic or diesel scented soap bar of yesteryear! Thankfully we’re pretty spoilt on here.

Yeah nice one the audi stamp is really nice still got some left just ordered 1g of red leb too,I don’t smoke a lot so everything lasts me ages,got me quite a selection of hashes😍
The SR3 was nice, the cloud of it was white and the stone was spot on. The green team do a very nice range of Kush hash.
I seem to be in a hash phase so have been trying a few. If you're still looking then get in on Eddy's Lebanese Blonde while it lasts. 👍 I got 7g of it and have been smashing through it faster than expected so might need to get more myself.
I can also recommend TGT's Royal Maroc, looks and smells very much like the hash I used to get back in the mid 90s but without all the crap in it. Nice and clean, really strong for an old school hash too IMO.

A great selection of hash from both

SR3 Stamp from Shoom of the Loom is very much like what I used to smoke in my youth in the mid 90’s. It’s exactly what I’ve been looking for for years. Perfect balanced mellow high. The hash looks and feels like decent old skool hash with none of the nasties. Not the most flavourful but a great price. Eddys Hasbars 🏴 stamp is great too. Great tasting mellow indica.
Yeah if you remember red seal black from yesteryear the gentleman dealers Pakistani black is the most like that in terms of the high.
I'll be making some "soapbar" style hash ASAP. Just gathering materials so to speak, but I'm on a mission to revive the 250g stamped pillow shaped bars. There won't be anything except cannabis in it, unlike pretty much all soapy or rocky from back in the day. But having done many hash experiments, the one that resembles the taste of soapbar the most is a mixture of lower grade kief and rosin from aged buds (the browner and more solid dabs you may come across sometimes). It brings back a weird level of hash nostalgia while also being pure, clean cannabis. On that note, if anybody has well aged flower or older extracts, please don't hesitate to message. I'm interested!
You're formulating 9 bars from a mix different products, AND making them just in the same style? I'm intrigued.
This only just came to me in a flash of stoner inspiration, but did we call that soap bar because of the shape and indentation, as it's the same shape as a bar of Imperial Leather?

I think they were called soap bars because they represented bars of soap, and interestingly they never weighed 9oz.
4 bars of solids was equal to 1kg, so although lots of us called them "9 bars" they weren't.
9 x 28.35 = 255.15
So you were always about a quarter under on every bar and an ounce under on each key if you assumed they all weighed 9 zips.
Not a big deal... but always got under my skin a bit.
Cheers BB 😊👍🍻

I'm glad someone else measured and remembers that 0.35g. One of the weird things that got me and GameChanger interacting on some topic too was me pointing that out.
I did wonder about the weight of '9 bars' when I saw that now everything is metric in weight and 100g with a weight disclaimer seems popular, so they probably were back then too, considering it was just us and the US that used imperial, and us only for drugs these days.
So we're looking at 35oz/key? That's relatively easy to remember and convert from either way.

Yup, 1000/28.35 = 35.3
35 oz per key when allowing for wastage etc.
So every 9 bar of solids was over sold by about 5-6g.
Doesn't bother me now as I grow, but yeah, 9 bars were never "9 oz" bars, they were 25% of a kilo - 250g.

Interesting. Thanks for confirming my suspicions mate. Clearly they weren't measuring those bars with 36 2p pieces, as was traditional for weights and measures.
That's why honest dealers back in the day would lose out with the pan scales in the purple velvet box.😉
1p - 3.6g
2p - 7.2g
and so on
So if you cut up an old school bar of solids on that basis...the ounces should be 28.8g each.
Which makes it even worse.

Hell BB i remember when we used a half pence for a 16th still got one in my old pans lol
As for why it was called soap bar well its not to do with the bar shape as i remember it first came in squares wrapped in cardboard,someone once told me it was because they smuggled it into the country in soap boxes to get by the sniffer dogs,though he might have been full of shit lol

My mum found my market tippers and threw them away! They were only a quid from the market, so not sure why whe bothered. She also too a roll of super microdots which looked very similar to clipper flints...not sure if she ever tried to use them 😃
I was always told that 1p was exactly 1/8 and it scaled with the coppers, and it was done as a weighing system for banking purposes. Just looked it up and it's apparently 3.56g per 1p. No wonder one guy kept trying to weigh with an obvious Pog on the scale, back in the day. Asked him to take it off.
Was that scale standard issue? My guy definitely had that, and a jar of change.

2p for a q as well... we are showing our age. Now can anyone remember weed being dealt by volume and not weight? 2, 3, 4 fingers up the side of the bag!
Apologies for the late reply. Yea, it won't be wildly different products since I'm trying to get different things in bulk, but it should be pretty much identical to the old soapy, minus the contaminants.
And yea I do believe it was called that due to the shape, certainly not because it's in any way clean! 🤣
Also a nice little trick for anyone who has enough kief, if you put it in the clear plastic that tobacco pouches come in, fold and tape it and then press it, you've got a perfect pillow shaped bar, only without that weird shine that 9 bars had. On the good ones it was because it was melted, on the bad ones that were hard as a rock... well... bees wax might've played a big part in their appearance

What 😬😲 gold seal is nothing like soap bar 🤣🤣 Its very hard to source good soap since back around 2005 .
Good old soap bar. You could smell it a mile off. Done a wee bit of work back in the day and my wee maws cellar was stacked so I had to hide the key from them. Didn’t have mobiles so my mate was never away from my bedroom window. 🤣

fav spacey, floaty albums?
sometimes i like to just pop on an album that takes me to another world. two most recent arctic monkeys albums are great for it, i feel like i'm floating through the galaxy whenever i listen to
DJ Shadow’s Endtroducing for me. One of the few multi format albums I own that I’ve had to replace several times cos I’ve worn it out. Freaks me out that it’s nearly 30 years old, it blew my mind then and it still does now. A masterpiece of a sonic journey.
I drove 400 miles to see him DJ. Got realy high then kinda drive home 400 miles. The good old days of 1996.
I second both of these choices. I came here to say the 2nd as clearly the thread title leads anyone who knows the album to think of it. Saw them play it live about 20 years ago, and they were superb.
I third them both amazing albums, I will add any ozric tentacles early albums, cinematic orchestra ,
At one point Spiritualized were my most seen band. Overtaken by Morcheeba by the end of the 90s (i used to go on tour with them tho). Smoke Fairies are up there now too.
If I was going to give a single suggestion it would be:
Aphex Twin - Selected Ambient Works '85-'92
Don't get Volume 2 if you like it and then expect anything like the same thing.

Omfg the Ozrics! Lying in the dark on the floor two massive kef speakers , head in the sweetspot after buckets and hot knives
The original Dreamfish album was amazing back in the day. I remember getting a cassette tape copy from a guy at school and listening to it on headphones after a spliff which blew my mind. Got the CD off eBay years later and it's still good for an ambient chillout option.
I’ve got the vinyl of that! Quality Fax output. That label did loads of amazing CDs and they were all limited to between 200-500 copies only….
Sweet, I'll need to check my copy then. I might have bagged a rarity if it's the same label! 😂
I had quite a few but sold on sone years back highest I got was £300 for the second I.F. CD!
I prefer to lose myself in a movie or a game while high but this question feels like it was meant to be answered with ELO - Time.

Tripping with Nils Frahm is great for a spacey floaty experience. Seeing him live is even better.
Both Nodun's Ictus albums are good choices too - the Ozrics without as many guitar riffs

Warp Artificial Intelligence 2, from the early 90s. Incredible album, well worth a listen.
I don't think this is what you're after, but it fits the bill...
I often fall asleep listen to a playlist on Spotify called "Floating through space" but it is literally ambient drone 😂

Some fantastic albums here and I can't wait to dig into the rest of the suggestions, great thread :)
Not an album but In Love Again by Red Rack'em is a great flip of y by Outkast; super deep house, floaty as you say.

Carbon Based Lifeforms, all of it. I tend to have a smoke.before bed, pop CBL.on and drift off to a nice spacey sleep.
Check out Haiku Salut - There is no elsewhere
Completely instrumental, so good to listen to while working, but also real nice to have on whilst having a smoke

I think it is much better to format address this way... Please read

I feel it is much more professional and legit to address your name with a Mr. / Miss or Mrs.
And also use capitals in the appropriate places
Takes little time to do, looks so much better and less suspecting especially for standard mail
Thanks guys

Have to disagree on this one personally mate.
All legit packages are first name or Dr. Apex 😂
Only ones that give it the Mr, are junk mail and even those are mostly “to the occupier”
Just my 2 cents 🤜❤️

If the stealth is to look like an online purchase then it really should appear as it would on a credit card since that’s how ecommerce works.
Some sellers have refused to send without a full name - seems fair enough to me.

See this is how I've always sent my address. Mr Initial Surname. You presumably only have to have one Biggus Dickus addressed order sent back to the sorting office to see the error of your ways, both in ordering and accepting orders.
My energy provider asked me for my title and being a bit pissed and stoned at the time of completing the form I ticked 'Lord'.

Lord Bulldog…fully deserved mate! 🏅…although I’ve been thinking about the appropriateness of ‘Highness”…I mean 🥁🥁🥁💥
Many years ago I had an account with a wine merchant and my account manager was a good guy. Used to keep things to give me first refusal if he saw something he thought I'd like that was below market value. So, once my mate wanted a decent bottle so I told him if he paid me I'd get my guy to sort it. Asked him to send it to Forename 'Ginge' Surname, Esq. Guy didn't bat an eyelid. Messaged me back and told me that 'Ginge' should expect his shipment in a few days. Ginge did indeed. Delivery guy said nothing, but he could easily identify that he'd delivered to the right guy.
Haha hilarious biggus dickus
Especially our standard mail are quite flat so seems like letters or documents inside so always helps to make it look professional!
Even junk mail is named to Mr or Miss / Mrs

I find it somewhat uncomfortable to send out packs that are named to someone with just a first name like “Chris”
Even Chris A is Better imo with atleast a surname initial
Mr and Mrs feels professional to me
But someone said below it is all about the stealth and I would agree

Yeah, Chris is a shit name….but it doesn’t make me uncomfortable.

I use a variety of different formats, sometimes full first and last names only, other times Mr + initial and surname, and so on. When I order from legal sites, I find the name and address format on the shipping label often varies depending on how the online shop is structured, what payment client they use, etc. so I try to mimic that variety when ordering on here.
I think any suspicions are most likely to be aroused locally to me, like my usual posties perhaps noticing lots of very light packages that look and feel very similar. I therefore try to make sure they're not also addressed identically every time, especially if I'm likely to have multiple orders landing together.
That said, I reckon a lot of postal workers know perfectly well what's in these parcels. By sheer odds, at least some of them must be LB customers themselves and I've seen some comments about biggas getting knowing nods/winks from their postie when the goods arrive.
If I do ever have to rely on my excuse of "No idea what's in the package, officer - I order loads of random free samples from legit websites so must be one of those“ then hopefully my switcheroo method will pay off, but I'm not sure the feds care much about the quantities we're ordering on here, tbh.

U seem to know a thing or two!
I agree that the postal guys probably know what it is in the standard large letters!
But they can’t do anything if it is not smelling!
I always thought maybe they have had enough of opening parcels and finding 10g Shake so don’t even bother anymore
LMAO

Depends who your postie is with regards to suspicions, I suppose? This was a delivery a few weeks ago. My postie has spent many, many years complaining about all the deliveries I get, and that I should stop ordering shit off the internet.
😂 your like me mate.
Told you lot the postie outright asked me, so hit him with “I’m anal sex toy reviewer for love honey”
He’s not said nothing since

I like that the bags are all different shades though, very colourful.
I seem to have mostly agency workers around my way just now, not been right since the strikes last year. The one regular I do have is very friendly and doesn't seem to care what he's delivering as long as it's out of his bag.

I used to go smoking with postie's brother. Sometimes he has holidays though, the fucker!
Think there are many vendors looking at this saying, 'That's mine!'? I can identify 1 vendor from the packaging from the back, and that's only because I needed a chainsaw to easily get into it. I used a sharp knife; it wasn't as easy to get into.

After 12 years of putting my nickname and real surname, if I did that the posty would notice something different and be suspicious.
I'll leave my address the same for opsec (not that anyone cares about my PUBP but at the same time posty might fancy a toke too!)

Hay Skuda,
By the reviews looks like you have made a decent start and definitely something to build on.
I like your honesty about your products. Just telling it how it is. Which I’m more inclined to give new vendors a punt for.
Fair play and good luck going forward?
Do you plan to add to the weed section and will it be packaged as the ones listed?
Sounds like decent some which is also decent on the pockets

Hi Skuda,
Just want to say cheers of the order and honesty on your part.
I seen the pucks and thought that they looked good and slightly different. Now my issue was if you’re going to all that effort. What are they hiding.
Not that I’m a suspicious 🤨 fucker or anything. After much conversation I asked them straight.
Would you notice the difference between the pucks and bud out grinder. The response was no.
I agree with the answer. I need up with both. I think they chucked a sneeky nug in to prove a point
Comms and stealth was excellent 👌
Glad you have loads. I’m good the now but at they prices I’ll be back shorty.

Cheers for the review Dazzler, just put an order in for one of the bud bars so looking forward to trying it!
You should man.
I enjoyed it in the dynavap last night and they were true to their word. No difference out the grinder and as advertised. Ugly bud made to look well packed. I’m ok with that as it’s a good price and smokes the same 💨💨💨
Let us know what you think 🤔

Order dropped today and I'm well pleased with it. Very nice indeed, especially for the price.
Would defo order again and will be keeping an eye out for any other items here. 👍

It's what's on the inside that counts. 😊
Don't care if it looks good as long as it's clean and vapes well.
I also owe you an apology, Dazzler. You put me onto the Coil King back in January and I said I'd report back but never did. I got one and then got so wrecked I forgot to say thanks for the tip. 🙄😂
7 months and various concentrates later, my tolerance is sky high but I'm loving the variety! I've recently invested in a Mighty and have given up combustion, hopefully for good (5 days and counting) .
The Mighty is kicking my ass in a good way, the flavour from it is unbelievable and I have a renewed passion for well-grown local (UK) weed to savour. 👌

Exactly could not agree more. Some of the best weed I’ve smoked isn’t been what you would call porn bud but the end product is the same.
No need to say sorry at all. Ha ha ha that’s the problem it just kicks open another door and I still love my AIO but I’ve been lucky and got a good trade off another bigga and got a core e rig 🤦♂️.
Yea the tolerance is a massive issue. I like to keep doing dabs to at least once a week. Less depending on gear.
Yea the mighty is a nice pice of kit. Stick at it man. I thought that I would never give up the tobacco or smoking joints. Now all can think about is all the money I wasted when I could have spent it on weed.
Way things are I certainly could not do both so the fgs got binned.
I went down the dyna rote and then another trade and cash for a tinymight 2
Yea I would take good local well grown all day long. Support local growers lol 😂
And it’s the extras that come with vaping. You get so much more for your gear. My gear lasts so much longer than it did when I was smoking. Which in turn helps on the old budget. So I can dip my toe in the big boys pool sometimes.
You are over the worse now. It’s about re training your brain now

Big boys pool 😂 I know what you mean, I got some of Eddy's Zkittlez Cake badder for a treat and it's stunning. Wish I could vape that stuff all day long but probably just as well I can't afford to, it's bloody strong and not sure my brain cells could cope with that every day.

Hi folks, might seem like an absurd question as I'm obviously logged in on littlebiggy.com but is this site fully active and in business?
I am hesitant to place an order since the .Org site is down, I'm hearing different messages on Reddit etc , some say .Com is legit and functioning and others warn of it being a scam.
can anyone give me credible reassurance? my usual vendor hasn't yet replied to my request for confirmation of normal activity.
cheers.

Wow just wow to the 1/10 review

I've been smoking this stuff pretty much exclusively for a couple of months at least and my lungs are fine.
I'm going blind in one eye and my bottom lip went black and fell off last week, but I'm pretty sure that's not related...

I've been smoking this shake for weeks and have no complaints at all - great quality, especially for the price, and better than a lot of supposedly 'premium' bud I've tried.
There's always the odd few who can't take responsibility for their own choices, not your fault.

Also, now july 2022 sad to say Pistach has a very dark weak Trimm. Use to be the best in the LB but lately not so good. I used to get half ounce with Pistach and half from RealiD every week (Trimms). Was heaven. Last couple weeks only RealdiD. Monday will order new strain I reckon Stat Dawg. No fear, his green is quality and the rash. See u monday pal. Thanks
OMG. I am sad now. Your honesty is something else. I think same as you zSkittles was THE BEST. I am torn now to buy 7g just to try or wait for the gold .lol. Do you known roughly when zSkittles would be back please? Thanks
Mate, I have purchased at least 10 X this skittles for over 4 month. Still brilliant. Still gets me high. I am 46 yrs old. Been smoking for at least 30 yrs. B é St trim/shake on Lb for months now. Maybe you hide something else for your doctor, innit? And is 2 people here smoking. I hope you get better. Cheers
Actually last 12 days already order over 40G in Trims with RealD. Should be dead by now. Lol... And I am just high as fuc*
FUCK ME LUBE LESS WITH A BURNT CHIP !!! , "THE DOCTOR SAID TOSS IT AWAY 🤯

Where did Real D go? 👀
I can see his shake and skittles pages, product not available, but if I go to his main page it says access restricted 😱
The items I can see are still accumulating reviews and say "online today" at the top, but I can't see any of it 😢
Is it cos I smell funny?

Lol. I've been smoking this all weekend/week. Was short of cash and this def does the trick. Im also asthmatic and I find it actually alleviates my symptoms. Also...DEFINITELY NO SPICE ADDED! Why the fk would someone be arsed to do that!? I'd be on my fkin arse if they did.
if this was spice then i'd 1000% be dead or in psychosis in a mental hospital with the amount i've smoked 😂
EDIT: just got my order in and i'm cooked, thanks RealD!

Really hope they come back soon
Really hope they come back soon
Ordered two oz from you now and smoked every last gram of both, your shake smokes better than some full price flower I’ve bought from here. This guy must have baby lungs and isn’t used to the power
Also reviewed today ordered 3 days ago hints that perhaps you are full of shite. I might of considered not buying more of the stuff you presume is spice🤦🏻 Can’t please some people

Second vote for RealD's Zkittlez, I've just placed my first order since he opened shop again.
It's possibly my favourite strain and his old stuff was some of the best bud I've had from LB so was glad to see it back. Recent reviews seem to suggest it's as good as it's ever been so looking forward to it landing.

Received my shake today as well, £25 for 14G of supposedly great skittlez shake (haven't opened the parcel so can't confirm).
Took 1 day to arrive.. Absolutely nuts value and service.

What you waiting for…get it opened and report back haha cheers for all the reply lads appreciated 💯👍🏻
Smells very strong upon opening. Filled my room with a skittlez/cali smell. Very nice smelling.
Very few stalks in there, mostly little leaves and bits of bud. Smokes excellent, pure white ash with the beautiful skittlez taste.
This is one of the best values for bud I've ever had in my life. Excellent.

Best version = rileypacks
Best value version = reald
Both good so all down to budget, if budget isn't a problem rileys is slightly stronger and consistently great.

The gentleman dealers zkittles hash Is a right decent bit of gear. Definitely one of the best hash for price on LB
I think sprout size would be extremely Generous, they’re more like peas 🤣 , it did go down quite nice so I can’t complain and will definitely buy the zkittles flower From RealD in future
Only Zkittles ive ever liked is the fuzzy round golf ball ones organic breaks up easy most the zkittles is rock hard small buds. Only ever seen one zkittles from San francisco i liked. give a proper buzzy head and body buzz for hours. with actual real zkittles tastes. Tried over 100 real gd grown ones to but nothing comes close.
I wish I tried yours mate lol ended up trying the grean teams and I 💯 regretted it, loads of immature seeds and pure black ash had half a joint an that’s it, complete waste of money,plus the strain wasn’t even skittles… no wonder they offer free stuff, or maybe I was just a unlucky customer, I won’t be taking advantage of there free offerings as a customer they have lost me due to dishonesty, never left a bad review as I’ve only got a few buys behind me but all I’ve stated above is 💯 the truth.

There is quite a bit, you can Google little biggy with magic mushrooms and you should find some. Off the top of my head maddabber 420 and fullersoal have other options currently
Check out Fulleroaks Shrooms, they have some McKennaii for sale just now. Not tried those myself but I have some Golden Teachers from them which are very good so can recommend them as a vendor.

Self medicating for depression / anxiety
Hi biggaz. Has anyone that smokes for the above reasons had much success with smoking hemp / high CBD flower with no THC? I’ve been researching it a little and it some people are raving about it?
I know people who don't "smoke weed" who have had success with anxiety while using CBD flower. Haven't met any stoners that have made the swap though.
The best medicine I have found for depression is a protocol of psilocybin microdosing in conjunction with periodic macrodosing (a full dose). Cannabis alone, depending on strain, alleviates my anxiety temporarily. Also, cannabis is useful in macrodosing mushrooms taken on the ride up and on the ride down.
I have tried many meds and ketamine infusions to treat my depression, but I have only had temporary results. The mushrooms are more effective long term in treating depression than ketamine. Cannabis seems to just add to a symptom of depression called amotivational syndrome. I still use fliwer and hash, but less frequently than before. DM me if interested in sourcing shrooms in USA and/or learning about my protocol for depression treatment..Thanks lil biggas for your time...

Couldn’t agree with you more! Although we love cannabis if your deep down there it could have adverse effects where psychedelics teach you to get back up! Generally leaves you in a higher state :))
I smoked the best quality cbd weed (21%+ average) from various sites for around 6 months or so.
It's shit.
If it was x5 less expensive fine, it would be worth a smoke now and again or mixed, i seen it on here but least it's not as expensive as the uk legit sites.

I personally use a mix of both CBD & THC flowers and find it helps alot for this. I really recommend vaping them together if you can and trying different ratios; 50/50, 70/30 and so on, I almost microdose it (having a few puffs on the vape in the evening or day time depending on what I'm upto/feeling etc) It took a little bit of time and trying different ratios to feel any benefits for what works best for me - maybe a few months but it definitely works positively for me now. Good luck stealthmode, I hope you find a solution that works for you ✌
Been self medicating for anxiety and depression for about a decade now. Personally I've found that products without THC aren't any help in dealing with my symptoms. Definitely worth a try though, as everyone's different. Best of luck to you.
i use a site called cbdhempweed, the pineapple express on that site is awesome... i have found that certain strains make me quite anxious and that is with either CBD or THC its all down to testing strains and see how the work for you... PE on cbdhempweed is bangin tho, check it out
uWakeiBake have pure CBD edibles that would maybe help with the above reaeons + cut out the disadvantages of smoking ... give them a try
I've been using CBD flower in addition to weed for about a year now. As others have noted, it's not that strong if you're used to proper bud but I do notice some effects.
I recently tried CBD concentrates and they're much more potent. They don't get you high or stoned but there's a noticeable shift in overall body sensation and they definitely chill me out if I'm anxious or stressed.
HempElf is a good place to start if you're interested. Hope you find something that works for you.

I grind together a 2:1 ratio of high thc bud with an equal percentage cbd bud. Its miraculous. I get nicely stoned with no anxiety and can go about my day quite happily. If I need to go shopping or something and don't want to be too baked, vaping cbd flower on its own also miraculous. Great for pain relief and muscle relaxation too
I've suffered with severe treatment resistant depression for years. I've not tried smoking CBD but I did use a high potency CBD oil for several months. Made no difference to my depression at all sadly, but it does seem to work for a lot of other people.
It helps for sure did have a friend who swapped to cbd weed after having a baby. I suffer from anxiety and ptsd yes cbd works but a nice indica works better for me personally. Good luck finding what works for you ✌️
CBD is ideal for tempering THC effects and giving you a very relaxing, mellow high. Much more like the kind of ratios that they had in the 60's
You can go the high cbd strain route, like Cannatonic, in bud or concentrate / vape form or you can look at mixed edibles with CBD and THC as well.

Items keep changing to Onion only
Hi guys, I’m hoping someone could help help us understand why the 2-4 item in our shop keeps on changing visibility to Onion torrent only. I keep on having to re-add the items and then they disappear after a day. The only way we find out is because customers email to say they cannot see the full dose etc. could someone please help PLEASE :))))
Hi there sorry about that! We did post to say we will be on holiday. We are now back until 11 am Fri
Isn’t your store LSD?….I don’t think LB likes that here🤷♂️…although if that’s the case they could just tell you!..
Thank you so much. I have asked them but no response so thought to try it out anyway but yes no warning on complaints so far. But I think it might be an automatic feature or something:) We would respect the boundaries if I could just get someone to say :-(
It’s so Algorithm based now that it can be hard to get responses. Try a chat with Happy Borg, they seem to reply more;

Not sure if it's related but I noticed last night that one vendor had products showing on their LB profile that would normally only be visible via Society. Seems to have changed this morning though so perhaps just a temporary glitch.
Honestly have no idea why it changes automatically and it’s only for the items we add after the first one :( It’s there for like 5 mins and then gone

working at home makes me a weed addict
cuase i can basically. work isn't effected at least not negatively but tolerance, weight and debt all headed up as well.
anyone else have this issue and how do you deal?
anyone else have this issue and how do you deal?
Pandemic sent me into a weed spiral not only could I do my job to the same standard but I actually got promoted to an advisory position so no work just giving advice on the phone. This made it worse but I found myself dropping two spliffs before work had started that soon became over 7g a day. That’s like college years and I became a little lazy work started to melt into home life being lit all day every day starts to become addictive but also routine. Every activity involved rolling one, like at college we drove nowhere without smoking a spliff in the car journeys were not measured in miles but how many pre rolled spliffs were required.
Now the only way out of this is to earn your spliffs unless I’ve been out clubbing probably not earned a 6am spliff (I’m to old to go clubbing anymore) so I had to set myself challenges as work wasn’t and despite having 4 kids and a part time wife home was boring.
I also got free Apple Music with new phone so went back to my 90s house and drum & base days and started walking. It’s kind of developed into a forest gump crossed with that terminator in T2 action but I found this a massive release from the stresses and an excuse not to get straight up and smoke. Soon enough smoking was back to after work. It’s mind over matter the exercise and music helped house music helps the mind body and soul before you know it you have done 5 miles and your back at the front door not knowing how you got there. After you have done things spliff is more rewarding and you need less. Don’t get me wrong weekends can sometimes contain a blowout when you blaze all day.

You could try CBD bud instead. I don't know if you like to smoke, vape, etc. but I find that smoking it helps stop me from reaching for my stash box during the day.
It's available on here but also via other UK sites and some stores, it's hemp flower rather than marijuana so it's all perfectly legit.
Looks like proper weed and actually tastes ok too, considering. It doesn't get you high or stoned as such but I definitely felt an effect from it, almost like my body was a bit stoned but my head was completely clear. It's a nice feeling and scratches the itch for a while at least.
There are CBD vape carts available too if you don't smoke, although I haven't tried those so can't comment on them.
I tried CBD oil for a while and didn't feel any benefit but the actual flower itself seems much more potent and I always have some CBD bud in my store now.
Might be worth a try if you haven't already. It's not that much cheaper so maybe not going to save you all that much but should help with the tolerance if nothing else. Good luck anyway!

I blaze from like 5am 😂 my addiction came long before wfh though and smoke to ease ptsd and other shit as much better in my experience than meds from docs.

Yeah I'm in the same boat my man...I work from home and have done for 2 and a half years now. Like yourself I could do my job well enough with a lil joint or two during the day but it's become an issue and with all the energy issues on top...well i'm bleeding cash left, right and centre.
I don't have many solutions for you but maybe one that can help. So someone mentioned CBD flower...I would suggest Delta 8 or HHC...some people on the net have talked about being illegal and yada yada. It's not and in fact have bought a total of about 150g of Delta 8 and HHC hemp flower.
Due to it being hemp the legal status is changed somewhat. It's treated more like a commercial/industrial material than anything else.
I would recommend hempiregardens.com if you're looking for some legal smoke that might hit that spot during work...I refer to the effect as a pale shadow of a stone. You don't get monged but it does chill you out and tastes similar to weed...they also do vapes and CBD stuff.
It's helped keep me sane when I don't have weed or need to not smoke it. As for the other issues I'm still trying to find a solution myself but some habits are almost impossible to kick so good luck bud!

My mate swears by Delta 8 and HHC. That said, my advice would be to get a strain that's leans heavily towards sativa and go steady with it. Sour Diesel is a good choice for focus - assuming you don't go too hard.
if it feels like an impulsive thing try to substitute a different action to feed it.
eat something nutritious and not delicious the next time you wanna smoke when you're already kinda stoned. it will feed the impulse without making you binge on food.

I recently got made redundant, but before that had started using carts during the day... As I am job hunting and they really got me high, I've just had to take a break from them for a while. I have very little self control.
I don't work from home but I know where you're coming from. Try and apply a smidge of discipline, for example, no weed until 12pm, then a reward, no weed until 4pm, then a reward. That's how I tackle it.
I’ve been hit by it too! I started consciously thinking about what it’s doing to my lungs/body, money etc. if that doesn’t help then good luck in your search buddy!

lsd vs mushrooms?
so i've always loved mushrooms but never really got hold of any acid. before i begin my journey i'd like to hear about the differences i can expect if some of you societals can help a lad out?
Acid is much easier on your gastrointestinal tract. Which also reduces the chance of a bad trip for me anyway;)
I've not had acid for years but I used to prefer it to mushrooms. I would say that there's not a massive difference in the effects but I found acid to be more a stable trip overall; mushrooms seemed less predictable, so one minute I'd have the giggles but the next I could be feeling sick or anxious.
I never had a bad time with acid and it was usually a more consistent experience. The only drawback is that it's more difficult to manage the dosage but you'll at least have fun experimenting. 😂

well said OldMan - set and setting is so important for all. Mushrooms are defo shorter and more unpredictable as you say. With LSD when you get it from the right source and know each drop is on average 125mg - you can go for a deep 8-12 hour journey or micro-dose on a 1 on / 1 off protocol and have fun with creativeness and problem solving - all fun 😂
Acid was always described to me as hd shrooms. Ive only dabbled in one tab at a time and its been lovely. I prefer it to shrooms cos i dont feel sick for 90 mins...what the others said is true
Hi 1313
I took maybe a dozen tabs in my entire life.
Mushrooms on the other hand I have been taking for 35+ years.
Be extremely careful with LSD: first dosage is a major issue.
Second - and most importantly - LSD being a synthetic drug you'll have a hard time telling what is on the tab unless you're a chemist.
I personally have found LSD experiences to vary tremendously - from overwhelming to underwhelming compared to high shroom doses - whereas mushrooms are fairly predictable once you have a handle on dosage for a known strain (and you respect the basic rules about setting and so on).
If you go for LSD buy from a trustworthy and reliable source. If you do not know the dosage for a given tab then cut a little bit and try that to see how potent the tab is.
Also the quality of the LSD can vary and sometimes you'll get tabs with something which is not LSD.
Worth reading the following page for good advice:

I took an awful lot of acid before I could get into nightclubs, most weekends for a couple of years. I agree with the idea that LSD = Digital Mushrooms = Analogue.
I always found LSD to give a direct, stable, predictable trip with large scale hallucinations strongly influenced by music. Less emotional in good company, maybe had one bad trip in 100+.
Mushrooms I find to be comparatively unpredictable, introspective, emotional, visuals appear less reliably but with a big dose the experience more deeply immersive for good or bad. Psychological effects can last much longer than the actual trip.
Also agree with the stomach upset problem and mushrooms. It can be minimised by starting the psilocybin breakdown in advance with lemon tek or the alcohol max out method, and practice.
I find people who are looking for LSD and only find mushrooms should probably keep looking, the two are not the same.
Just my opinion.

i think digital for acid holds but that means kinda square and pixely too. mushrooms feel like they have softer edges
Totally agree - we don't feel they are the same experience at all. I've found no stomach upsets with LSD unlike mushrooms - that's not to say all shroom trips have been all been with stomach issues! With stronger doses you sometimes experience nausea in the first our but that quickly passes.
If you want to journey with either mushrooms or LSD - you should defo source the psychedelic you are drawn too.
Happy journeying

Not had LSD for many, many years (cannot get it), but have to say I always loved the experience. Shrooms.... not so much; I tried shrooms a couple of times back in the LSD days and the nausea was awful.... but I put that memory aside and grew about 600g during lockdown... I still have around 500g left because I just cannot stomach them. I did find the best way to take them was steeping them in a cafetiere in hot chocolate milk and that helped... but still not for me. LSD is a much 'cleaner', more enjoyable and less nauseating high.
Just ordered a first dose of shrooms having only experienced 2cb and mdma psychedelics really looking forward to it haha. Cheapest I found on little biggy https://littlebiggy.org/link/pLFsdu

A new boy's BIG mistake

A new boy's BIG mistake
So my weed smoking days were back in the 70s. In the years since I've become a functioning alcoholic. In addition I have serious physical and mental health probs. Have sought out weed to help with both. Also hoped it might help me cut down on the booze because not only does that rarely give me a lift any more, it actually makes my depression worse. And I'm not talking the day after I mean while I'm actually drinking. I can feel my brain shutting down.
Anyhow, I knew I didn't want to smoke. I have breathing difficulties as it is and knew I'd cough a lung up if I smoked. So I came here interested in vaping. Bear in mind my last experience with weed was a couple of hits on a weak joint over 15 years ago so in modern terms I'm a complete newbie.
So I was drawn straight away to a Cart and bought one (Mimosa) with a battery and charger from the excellent Dr Extracts as my first order. Then I did a little more research and found out for the first time about dry herb vapes (I said I was a newbie). So I bought one (Nebula Fuzion). Then I turned my attention to actual weed. Given my long absence I looked for lower potency, and found some old school South African Dagga from DIUK and some Thai/Lao from mrb4real and promptly ordered both. One of these, with my new vape, was going to be my gentle reintroduction to the world of weed.
Anyway, thanks to all that have made it this far but to cut an unintentionally long story short both the latter have been held up by the postal strike. So two days ago sitting here half drunk and feeling very down mentally my eye kept wandering to my as yet unused vape pen.
Maybe just a little hit to see if it could lift my mood? Put it on low setting, pre-heated it, and took a small hit. Sat and waited, nothing happened. Thought maybe the hit had been too small so took a bigger one. Sat and waited, nothing happened. You can guess the rest. Took a third big hit, and a fourth just for luck.
Holy shit it hit me like a freight train. My legs turned to jelly, my head went into orbit. I was seriously fucked up for the next 3 hours. It wasn't a pleasant experience. I knew what kind of high I was looking for when I came here. This went way, WAY, beyond that.
It was bad to the point it's made me scared of trying again. I'm still waiting for the weed and will try that very carefully. Going to buy some CBD bud and cut it 50/50 to start off with. Just a shame my first experience has been a negative one.

Given my long absence I looked for lower potency, and found some old school South African Dagga from DIUK and some Thai/Lao from mrb4real and promptly ordered both. One of these, with my new vape, was going to be my gentle reintroduction to the world of weed.
Anyway, thanks to all that have made it this far but to cut an unintentionally long story short both the latter have been held up by the postal strike. So two days ago sitting here half drunk and feeling very down mentally my eye kept wandering to my as yet unused vape pen.
Maybe just a little hit to see if it could lift my mood? Put it on low setting, pre-heated it, and took a small hit. Sat and waited, nothing happened. Thought maybe the hit had been too small so took a bigger one. Sat and waited, nothing happened. You can guess the rest. Took a third big hit, and a fourth just for luck.
Holy shit it hit me like a freight train. My legs turned to jelly, my head went into orbit. I was seriously fucked up for the next 3 hours. It wasn't a pleasant experience. I knew what kind of high I was looking for when I came here. This went way, WAY, beyond that.
It was bad to the point it's made me scared of trying again. I'm still waiting for the weed and will try that very carefully. Going to buy some CBD bud and cut it 50/50 to start off with. Just a shame my first experience has been a negative one.
Sorry to hear that buddy. 😢
Extracts, whether it’s distillate, resin, rosin, RSO, shatter, wax, badder, crystals etc etc are all high strength and not the place to start your journey. They can hit the high 90%+ in virtually pure THC. 🤯 By contrast the weed you have ordered will be around 12% (compared to an LB average of c20%+). But even that will be a fair bit stronger than the norm back in the day when 4-6% was the going strength.
That said, vaping at lower temperatures delivers less of a hit than combustion. The Thai is a lovely old school hit. Dial your Nebula in at just 160c to start and you are really going to enjoy it but still just take a couple of hits for your early session. Mixing with CBD is a great idea too.
Please come back and tell us how it works out…🤞🫠

I think heard this tip from Seth Rogen. If it’s your first time smoking a new strain, take two small puffs from a 1 skin (pure) joint, put the joint out and set a 30 minute timer. See how you feel, you’ll know what to do, if you’re high then congratulations, if not relight and take a couple more puffs. I still practice this tip every time I pick up or order from here. One man’s heaven is another man’s train. Tread carefully and it’s great to have you here.
I used the same technique with the cart that I bought from dr extract and my mind left my body 😂, I’ve been a daily consumer for a while now so don’t feel put off if something knocks you for 6. It still happens to the most experienced weed consumers.
Again welcome!

sounds like you just took way too much for your tolerance level that's all, I hate this always feels like the room is spinning horrible stuff, suggest taking 2 alright puffs and you'll be sound
also if you worried about your lungs don't smoke at all just either do edibles or they have some cannabis oil pills on here i've seen, you could save your lungs completely
I've thought about edibles and will get round to trying them. Just a bit worried about getting the dose right. Came into this thinking try a bit at a time (yes, as my post here confirms I screwed that up) and though edibles are all in, once you've eaten one you get the full whack, no backing off so to speak. You can't really take it a bit at a time?
You can very much take edibles a bit at a time. A noob dose (and my favourite dose) is 10mg. Many Biggas laugh their socks off at this dose and some will claim to be able to eat 50 x this (literally 500mg) in a single session (in reality many cheap edibles wildly exaggerate their strength).
To put 10mg into perspective that is now the only legal dose in the US for a single edible.
Buy quality edibles, ignore big strength claims. (SayNo2Drugs sends 10mg edibles from the US) but most on here are 40-50mg per sweet. Simply slice off a quarter BUT you must wait at least 45 minutes for it to kick in- don’t top up because you think it’s not working. Just always limit your first doses to 10mg. You can simply build up in time but personally I don’t go above20mg and when I have I don’t enjoy it. Some are more susceptible than others to edibles soI’m just lucky I guess 😂
For me good quality edibles deliver a fantastic euphoric high that is very different to vaping.
Another way to go is Cannacaps. Northern Organics have 10mg caps, both sativa and indica or both in a mixed pack. These are a high quality fixed dose that deliver a very nice ride- you should probably start with the indica for getting chilled out.
Good luck buddy! 👍👍

Most sellers don’t get their edibles tested. We take a leap of faith based on what is says on the pack. Cheap edibles claiming high strengths generally don’t review well.
totally agree mate, I went way overboard. I've had a couple of small hits since I made my post. Just little ones spaced apart by an hour. Been all good so far. Just have to learn to pace myself with the stuff that's around now
That doesn't sound pleasant, everyone seems to have a similar story when they first started out.
The vape cartridges are very strong as they're made with a concentrate. They're also deceiving and it's easy to over do it with them due to the lack of vapour they can produce, you think you're not getting anything, so you take another toke..and another.... then all of a sudden you're part of the sofa 😅
Strength wise, you've picked 2 good strains to start off with as they are on the weaker side of the THC scale. Give them a go and see how you get on. I honestly think you'll be fine if you take a single small toke of the vape (make sure you have eaten before hand)
I'm sure it didn't help that you was half drunk during it either 👍

cheers. yes on reflection i was a total noob. too many outdated memories of the old days. didn't appreciate what i was dealing with. never too old to learn i hope!
Vape carts are creepy (as in the high creeps up on you).
In much the same way as you would be conservative with an edible, the same for vape carts.
When you get this understanding of your own tolerance down, my friend it is easily the most effective way of administering a controlled hit.
A friend of mine is a very occasional smoke with low tolerance, but he loves carts.
Put it down to a touch of misadventure and don't let it put the fear into you, sir.
As a rule I would suggest waiting at least 10 minutes inbetween your hits should you be of the mind to use the cart again.
Good luck.

I’d recommend trying some of northern organic’s products, either the thc capsules or the brownies. The capsules are at a low dose but enough to feel, and I think would be good for your tolerance level - they’re also extremely reasonably priced so if they’re not for you then there’s nothing to worry about.
As far as NO’s brownies go, as someone with a reasonable tolerance for edibles I typically eat half a brownie at a time, occasionally a full one of I want to push the boat out lol. For someone just starting to delve into edibles I would say a quarter of a brownie would be enough to have a pleasant experience without it being too much. And as another positive, they taste absolutely sensational.
Whatever you decide to try going forward I hope it’s a more pleasant experience than you had with the carts lol, all the best pal

Sorry to hear this experience has put you off. I think it's just down to the potency of the carts, though - they're very strong and even someone with a high tolerance (like myself) might need to approach them with caution. The first time I tried one, I took two small puffs and was baked for a good two hours.
The weed you've ordered is likely to be much lower strength so it should be easier for you to find the right amount for you, however I'd always say just start small and work up. You can easily have another puff at the vape but you can't undo one too many!
I hope your journey works out.

thanks mate. totally agree. like cooking you can always add more seasoning but you can't take out what you've already added!
