I’d have to say Cheese, between 2000/2005.

Reminds me of my school days when we used to chip in £1/2 to get a £5 draws haha

These were the days 3 pound each and trying to pursuade a dealer to give us a tens

Damm this brings back some memories doing the same things with my mates how things have changed 🤷‍♂️

4 ways on a teenth was not uncommon in NW2 in 1998.
Some lame hash with dog hairs in it from the local hippie-🤣🤣.

Those WERE the days ay.

And there'd be a party at 2am when you found a blim in the sofa recess during Shithead.

Definitely and Luton blues

Totally agree! Pure Banger! Light green color with a strong beer smell! Kept an eye open for it, never to be found!

For me it has to be some Bruce Banner #3 from 1e hulp in the dam all the way back in 2017. I've never been able to recapture that one. It was a skunky, kind of gassy & fruity type all rolled into one with such a unique flavour profile to finish. The high was second to none. Wiped me right out. Left me looking at the world with my eyes so bulged they were basically closed. They say you'll never recapture that first high, this one took me above and beyond.

Bruce Banner great strain very powerful

For sure! It flew under the radar quite a bit and I think it's unique musk and it's face melting is why.

I don’t know if it’s the best, but my favourite strain is Sour Diesel. I’ve been a fan since I tried the East Coast cut that Grey Area used to sell in Amsterdam. Some of the best tasting weed I’ve ever had.

Yes I remember that sour diesel from the grey area 👍😂😉also the New York city Diesel from Abraxsas.that was a nice smoke.i drove to Amsterdam that year 2006 if i recall world cup time..I smuggled 6 grams of that back 🥴.and made it through ha ha 🤣.those were the days 😉

It’s for sure a classic

Yellow Zushi for me.

Chocalope!

Probably the timeless Afghan Kush for me

I’ve only had this once but it was beautiful.
Tasted like Afghan black hash, made me very happy for about 30 minutes then sent me to bed.
Same with you?

classic Stardawg, u can never go wrong

I had the best stardawg from SDL recently classic old school gassy dawg

I couldn’t agree more

I’m not ashamed to agree.
Gets you boxed too. Can’t deny that.

Quality Stardog is done off the best bud

A Rare Cherry Pheno AK 47 from SIlk road in 2010.

I see we got a dark web veteran here

Ooh that sounds interesting.
Cherry AK.

I wonder what strain is it that brings this cherry terpene to the plate?

ESB - extra special bud , Old times #2 and S4 - Skunk 4 ways. S4 by far was the best I have ever had even to this day sadly it was a special made breed so will never have the oppurtunity to try it again :(

If you grow both those strains are available mate.
They're both OLDTIMER1 strains who sadly is no longer with us but some good fellows have taken up the mantle of his strains...people like buddelaire from fleur de mal seeds

Still got a couple of Oldtimes seeds in the fridge I think, probably no good after all these years?

You would be surprised.
People have germinated seeds found in Egyptian tombs thousands of years old.

Super Lemon Haze from the original Greenhouse Coffeeshop in Amsterdam :)
Also Arjans Strawberry Haze is right there with it, properly grown in soil for pure taste, can't beat the sweet berry on the exhale!

Ooo I forgot about strawberry haze, that was a great flavour esp the ones that genuinely tasted of strawberries!

8 month break with the family and dam is it good to be back with you Biggaz.

My favourite strain ever was back in 2004 and called MMG “Martian Mean Green” from DNA, I managed to get a few beautiful phenos from a pack of reg seeds

It was the ultimate strain and I’ve never seen or smelt anything like it since then ❤️

Absolutely loved that strain. I remember queuing for a long time as I was there for the cannabis cup (2006). Grey Area’s queue was ridiculous on a normal day!

A very special strain which I haven’t seen since unfortunately.
Would love to see someone give that a go and bring it back.

Purple Haze back in 2008. Smelt and tasted like lavender. Haven’t had anything quite like it since then.

Man I used to get some banging street weed back around those times. Northern Lights, White Widow and good ole Cheese were the norm.

Never knew the strain but I've been forever trying to find something that I smoked about the same era that had a lavender terp.

Lovely stuff, got it once and then I've never seen anything like it since.

got an oz like that in the late 90's, had the potent lavender smell and taste. think it was a bit on the indica pheno side. very dark purple and when you snapped the buds in half the core was almost black. amazing bag appeal. really strong and tasty stuff too

Gelonade I had a lovely batch a few years ago off the dw never tasted gelonade like it since and can’t even remember who the seller was called

recently went to albania, fuck knows what it was but it was something mint related.... they albanians know how to grow haha

Best growers in the world hands down haha

the world would be a better place without albanians, when it comes to weed. that much is certain.

Some sweet tooth from Barney's in Dam. Some of the "Ice" a local strain I smoked in Jamaica.
Barry Bonds from ULC on here

Now that is some serious variety 👌

I get around like the Beach Boys!

Honourable mentions to the Hawaiian Haze at Katsu in Dam too.

Had serious difficulties negotiating everyday tasks after that.

Blue Cheese for me. One best tasting and strong high, wish it would come back.

I absolutely love blue cheese. So tasty and so strong. I used to get an oz every week off my plug back in the day. Couldn't get enough of it. Got it recently in the dam too at Greenhouse effect. Was just like how I remembered it.

Yeah man, the real blue cheese was so pungant, it don't matter if it was wrapped in 3 layers, you could still smell that shit. it's just not same nowadays! :(

Yea you know if your saying that. A taste of more off it. The stuff I got in the dam was really nice but nothing like years back.

1995 Northern Lights
2023 FBC (from Druids Magic)

The two best strains/grows I’ve ever smoked. By far.

Purple Haze back in 2008. Smelt and tasted like lavender. Haven’t had anything quite like it since then.

Man I used to get some banging street weed back around those times. Northern Lights, White Widow and good ole Cheese were the norm.

Oreoz from super Hans back in lockdown. Most expensive bud I've bought but it literally tasted of chocolate biscuits. It was heaven.

Special Olympics, a sativa strain from a Canadian MOM, Zippy about 16 years ago. One that will never be forgotten.

Flowerbomb kush from the greenhouse Amsterdam in the late 2000’s I think it was Green crack x OG kush

Biggest hit I ever had was with hash - nepalese temple ball in around 1979.

I'd love to meet that again, might have been laced with opium.

Sorry its not weed.

I recently had a ZOAP that was grown in Thailand that I honestly fell in love with.
I would like to get a top top shelf version to get down with.
Imagine the hash you’d get from that aswell🤯💯❤️❤️

For me it's got to be cinderella99, I grew myself with seeds off gipsy nirvana from nirvana seeds, mental it was loved it.

Had a few, NY Diesel and Fruity Pebbles from Gray Area in Amsterdam back in 2016/17ish.

But about a year ago managed to get hold of Plum Mochi by Ted Budz, which ended up with me tripping over with a drink in my hand, laughing at myself uncontrollably. It was beautiful. I haven't been able to get my hands on it again since and it breaks my heart.

buyed some weed in the dam in 2009 ish that made me space out totally, was strongest stone ever. i felt like i was on a different planet. was fun but a bit scary. cant remember the name but was sooooo strong i just walked around in circles for hours
bulldogs gorilla zkitles also strong but not quite as heavy as the dam stuff. down to my last gram or two wish i had more.

Klass. 🤣🤣👌🏻😮‍💨

Gotta be some LA Confidental I got from Dam, Grey Area back in 2010 now 😫 and Chocolope when I saw it.
as of recently Sassy (LB) with Eleven Roses that was nice.
I think a lot of these newer strains get abit lost/too mixed

i was going to the dam around that time and also had some of the LA confidential it was crazy strong and very dank tasting. it was one of the best we tried that trip, those grey mist crystals from grey area were something else too!

Strawberry Jerry strain from Skookum Cannabis, BC, Canada hands down the best quality

For me, it has to be Durban Poison. Had a great batch recently and gave me the best europhic buzz. Close 2nd to Mimosa Evo and Alien Dawg third

Rainbow belts

Blue Cheese, back in the day - nothing like it used to be now….

Recently I’d have to say
black cherry gelato

Dr Grinspoon over in amsterdam when it was a new strain, 100% sativa, the head high and body tingles i got i will never forget.

OG Kush <3

Jack heera or white widow early 90s home grown. Most recently mango Kush at a club in Spain.
I would smoke anything to be honest. It’s all about the cost nowadays.

I have found that it's more to do with phenotypes and how they are grown. I've sampled different grows of the same strain and found the effects to differ with each one. Some of these grows have been some of the nicest in effects and then others of the same strain completely lack what was so nice about them.

*** Whatever *** Diesel.
Colombian Gold
Durban Poison
Skunk #1 - and anything that made
Arjan’s OG Hazes
Skittles - and all of the things it has made
Anything Mendo Purps, Grandaddy Purps, Trainwreck,
Dogshit, that kinda thing. Norcal staples.
*** whatever *** OG Kush
*** whatever *** Dawg

Although OG Chemdog.

I'm running around still chasing this Alien Dawg from a few months back, some of the hash in Amsterdam is just mental man

Mine is probably some jungle cake, Mac or boss og, all of them I got from here. Such great strains. Even chemdawg and uk cheese are up there too.

2018 Cali X Zkittlez, nothing else has ever came near and I wish I kept more for myself

The best strain I've ever smoked was Skywalker OG about 5 years ago. It was my first time smoking a strain I knew the name of and it was every bit as good as I thought it would be. I wish I could go back and get Zs off them

It's a toss up between bubba kush and amnesia haze for me. Had some bubba for the first time a few months back and it was a gorgeous body high. Delicious body rushes from it. Bought some again recently but doesn't have the same quality of effects unfortunately. Maybe because of different phenotypes 🤷🏻‍♂️.
Amnesia haze almost always gets me to a place of euphoria that's unmatched by other strains. Would love to find a strain that's more euphoric but out of the roughly 20 strains I've tried so far nothing has been more uplifting than ami.

As far as dominant sativa’s goes,I’ve always had a smile when bopping home with a bit of Amnesia in my sky.

99 problems 🚀🌛

Cali Yellow Zushi 🤤

I'd go with either MAC by citizen stash or wedding crasher by BLKMRT both outstanding. I also had a bit of alien sin mint cookies by BLKT, I kid you not the bud was bluish instead of purple, all these strains were from a couple years ago when I was living in Canada.

Home Alone 🎄

Planes, Trains & Automobiles 👍😂 (or is that Thanksgiving?…can’t remember but defo a great holiday movie!)

"Where's your other hand?"
"Between two pillows"
"THOSE AREN'T PILLOWS!" 😂

Thanksgiving mate, but it probably inches in there. 'That's not a pillow!!!' I was watching it with my cousin on VHS rental back in the day, and my gran had no interest in the film whatsoever. She walked in just as he goes to complain about the rental car that isn't there. I think it's the only swearing in the whole film, but they get their money's worth in that one scene.

National Lampoons christmas vacation
Die hard
Scrooged

Bad Santa
Jingle all the way
The Santa clause

Sorry, but it has to be Die Hard. He's coming home for Christmas, they play Christmas music in the limo that picks him up to see his wife at a Christmas party, and the entire plan is based on the shutdown over Christmas and New Year of the bank and the emergency services, so it couldn't take place at any other time. Plus, it's not Christmas until Hans Gruber falls to his death from Nakatomi Plaza. 'Ho ho ho, now I have a machine gun'. 100% a Christmas film.

That, or Violent Night, which is sort of Die Hard with Santa.

Hey QG- welcome to LB👋

Carts have a smell but it’s not as strong as weed and no way as strong as combusting weed. Personally if I’m not in my Den then I take hits in the bathroom just to be mindful of it.

Strains are less easy to discern in distillate carts than they are in the corresponding flower. Take Mimosa for example- a favourite strain of mine. I can buy carts that taste and smell of classic Mimosa but don’t have the signature effects imo. That’s not to say that the effects for all carts are the same regardless of the strain name. I definitely have some that buzz me right up and other that knock me right out!🤩👍.

You can also progress to live resin and rosin carts. These have a pure extraction method but they are still diluted to make them work in a vape so are not exact copies of the flowers effects.

We’ve long been campaigning to have date stamps on posts for the topics wall- it would make it function so much better. Obviously we can add our own but it’s hard to remember. Some say it’s a ‘security issue’…why that would be I have no idea🤷‍♂️…

Hi QG
The main reason I switched to vapes was the lack of smell compared to smoking or even dry herb vaping. Sure they still smell a bit, I use them inside usually with some sort of scented candle going which seems to mask the smell. I have a 15 year old with a sense of smell like a well trained bloodhound. She has never mentioned any aroma. When I vaped dry herb about 30 feet down the garden she would generally ask who had been smoking weed. The smell of vapes is nothing like weed or hash.
That's a good question about strains and distillates. I've spoken with G6 about this. They claim that their carts are "strain specific distillate" and have effects you would expect from the strain in question.
I've found distillate very variable in its effect. Canadian Imports Unicorn Piss for example will absolutely fk you over and last ages whereas others are less intense and short lived.
The major differences for me have been using live resin which seems a lot more allied with the strain effects you might expect. It's much closer to smoking a well stacked joint than distillate.
It took me a while to find which carts suited me through trial and error.
