Im struggling with the switch over from smoking weed to vaping (Mighty plus); in fact im rolling a joint as i write this. I think after 30 odd years of joint smoking it will always be a struggle; but I will persevere...

I Bought A New Dry Herb Vape
Full Time Vaper
I've become a full time vaper. I didn't really mean to but it's happened and for the time being I'm staying with it.
I'd been looking for a new dry herb vape that ticked all my personal boxes for a while and I finally took the plunge.
My Previous Vape
I've had the X Max V3 Pro for a while. As I used to smoke joints it was only used occasionally. When I moved onto vaping full time I bought the glass mouthpiece for it and a pack of the overpriced metal dosing capsules. Honestly as a starter vape it's been brilliant. It lacks a bit of oomph and the battery drains quite quick on a longer session. I don't know how well other vapes at the same price perform but I'd happily recommend it as a starter and I think it'd be fine for a light user. Happy to hear people's opinions on that.
The biggest annoyance is battery life. I could blitz through the battery in no time which meant I was faffing with charging it all the time. I bought a spare battery but then you have to charge two batteries for a session and swap them about which is logistically more complicated than I can cope with while blazing.
My Criteria For a New Vape Purchase
- I wanted something portable / hand held. It won't go on many voyages but it needed to be more discreet than a desktop thing with a long tube that looks like it could be used for colonic irrigation or a balloon filling station like Krusty the Clown would have.
- I wanted something where the battery would last me a whole evening so no faffing with repeat charging.
- It needed to be flavour focused with a glass mouthpiece. The glass mouth tubes on the X-Max improved both flavour and feel so I wanted to stick with that.
- I prefer a session mode vape too. I'll never sip on demand. If it goes in the vape, it's getting ripped now. I don't do micro doses.
Cannabis Video Reviews Online
These are always slightly hilarious but ultimately worthwhile to check out and helped me with my choosing process. The thing I especially like is that the reviewer is committed to getting stoned while filming themselves and attempting to sound intelligent all at the same time. In some small way I guess I know how they feel - but at least I can hide my red eyes and giggles when I'm doing a write-up.
What Did I Choose?
* Drumroll *
I chose the Arizer Solo 2 Max.
This one seemed to tick all my boxes. There's an upgraded and more expensive version - the Solo 3 - which I didn't choose as I think the solo 2 is probably powerful enough for my needs and it saved me £100 over the version 3. Maybe I'll change my mind and upgrade in the future.
Slow Chugger
I like to slowly chug through my bud and change flavours quite frequently so I felt that I didn't really need either the extra load capacity of the solo 3 nor the extra power to blitz my buds more speedily.
However if you smoke in a group or you still like to cain it like a teenager then I can see how the upgraded version might be better for you. It also looks like the interface and display is significantly better on version 3 - more on that below.
About The Solo 2 Max
I've been living with the Solo 2 Max for a while now and I really love using it. It feels like the spliff smoking days are behind me. I look forward to my vape sessions just as much as I used to look forward to smoking a few joints. It took a little while to adapt but I genuinely do enjoy it now.
The Solo 2 comprises two main parts - the battery / oven base unit and a separate glass mouthpiece which also holds the bud. I bought three extra 90mm mouthpieces with the caps and tubes to hold them in so I can line a few up ready to use. I'll probably buy some more of these too as it's handy having some pre-filled. It came with a 110mm stem but the shorter 90mm stems seem better to me - not least as they're easier to clean.
In Use
You load bud into the tail end of the special glass mouth tubes, then put this end into the battery oven. It holds in place pretty well with the small seal in the round oven opening and the glass tubes are exceptional at not transmitting the heat from the oven to your mouth. This creates a glass only vapour path so it doesn't taint the flavour.
When you remove the stems while still hot from the oven, one end is full uncle-Bernie and the other end is still pretty cold to the touch. It's easier to empty bud from the tubes when they're warm as the vaped oils get gluey when cold but are still slidey when warm.
Sometimes when you remove the tubes you spill a little bit of used bud into the oven chamber. Obviously this never happened with capsules on the X-Max which are very easy to use. It's easy to clean but it's another thing to be aware of as you don't want to scum up your oven.
It takes about 30 - 40 seconds for the device to heat up so it's ready to turn your buds into vapour. If you leave it a bit longer you get thicker clouds. If you attack it early you get a bit more flavour. I tend to run it between 180c - 196c. It's rare that I venture over 200c and doing so will start to blacken the bottom of the buds as they get slightly combusted by the oven heat. It really kicks out some significant heat.
No Timer
One thing I don't like is the lack of a countdown timer. The X-Max used to show a countdown so you knew how much time you had left. I guess a spliff burning down naturally shows a visual display of your smoking time eroding and I'd liked this time replication display more than I'd realised.
The Solo 2 can have a session time set from 5 - 15 minutes but it keeps the countdown timer a secret. It's a small thing but it does irk me a little. There's certainly enough screen space for a timer display. I'm probably going to buy a silent timer like a sand timer or something.
Clunky Start Up
The other small thing is the start up sequence. To turn it on you need to fat finger the up and middle buttons at the same time for two seconds (you can set this to a longer time but I've no idea why you would). When it turns on you then need to set a temperature before it starts heating up. This second bit I often forget. I guess it's a habit and I'll change. The X-Max starts up on a long press and then leaps straight into action using the same settings from when it was turned off. This is a much nicer user experience especially later into a session when you're baked and anything that simplifies your life feels like a bonus.
Serious Power
The battery life on the Solo 2 is unreal and I've not managed to drop it lower than 20% from a full charge even when using it all day. The glass tubes make cleaning very easy - even easier than with the dosing capsules of the X-Max.
Lovely Flavours
The flavour is lovely and consistent. This was the thing I was most concerned about but it delivers more flavour more reliably than the X-Max. Ultimately this was the most important aspect for me as the little X-Max does deliver a decent flavour initially.
Other than the timer display limitations noted earlier and a clunkier start up sequence, the Arizer Solo 2 Max is an upgrade to the X-Max in every other way. It produces bigger clouds of flavour filled vapour for longer. It's easier to clean and feels really nice to use and handle. It's constructed from aluminium and glass so it feels a very solidly built unit in your hand.
Vaping Weed
So that's me vaping for the foreseeable future. It took me a little while to fully convert but I'm really enjoying vaping my buds now. I probably wouldn't have stopped smoking if it was not for some health issues as I'd always enjoyed smoking joints but the vaping feels like a new chapter to continue my stoner life.

I didn't choose to quit, I got ill with Covid/Flu back in November and couldn't smoke for a couple of weeks. I decided to continue it on to see how it'd be. It was a quite a long time I til I adapted to vaping but at the moment I can't imagine going back to smoking. I'd have struggled with willpower alone though - my initial motivation was illness. Over the weekends I eat more edibles now to make up some of the shortfall.
Perfect choice M8, but you need to try Arizer xq2 my absolute favourite vape machine from all my Arizers (solo2, solo3 v2). Canadians know how to do good weed equipment 👌
I did actually consider that and the volcano. I wanted a portable device though as it fits my needs currently. As I've become a full time vaper I'll likely add to my equipment over time though.
What is it you like about the desktop? Also do you prefer your solo 3 v2 to the solo 2? I considered both for ages but went with the solo 2 as I thought it'd fit my chug along smoking style better than the solo 3 which seemed more of a ripper.

All down to high tolerance, need load more weed in one go, so no need reload many times, solo3 v2 is massive upgrade from solo2 but my wife prefer solo2 :) Arizer xq2 desktop doing best for me, 1g load in one go, really good on temperature settings and my favorite fan, plus as all arizer devices easy to clean and quiet compare to volcano.
I reckon I'll buy the 3 next time. It does seem significantly upgraded. Although I'm pretty happy slowly chugging on the 2 for now.
I think switching from smoking to vaping is so difficult because we’re used to combustion. Combustion extracts compounds much faster, releasing a wider range of chemicals all at once. That’s why vaping can feel like something is missing at first.
I’ve found that taking a short break about 2–3 days with no thc makes vaping work significantly better. If you only vape and stick to lower temperatures (around 160–175 °C max) for a few days, the effects feel much stronger when you later move to higher temperatures.
I’m using the Solo 3 now mine doesn’t show the timer on screen. I previously had the Air 2, but it broke, so I upgraded. I find the Solo 3 to be very similar overall just chunkier, more powerful, and with the option for on‑demand mode for big rips. Session mode feels basically the same as the Air 2, just with faster heat‑up times and more efficient extraction with a choice of using larger stems up to 0.5g
I also hope you’re saving that AVB for a special occasion. Vaping at lower temperatures really helps keep tolerance in check, and it leaves behind plenty of goodness for making some very potent edibles later on.

I used to roll with tobacco too. Not much baccy but enough for nicotine addiction. So vaping was very much missing something. I smoked a few neat rolled spliffs to start with but I prefer the flavour from the vape now. I've really adapted to it pretty well now.
I did save the avb at first. I made some butter with it then made chocolate from that. It was awful in both taste and effects so after much effort making it, I chucked it away after the first session. I've recently made some RSO / D9 chocolate and that's awful tasting too although the effects are much cleaner than the avb. It may be that I vape my bud til it's fully cooked so not much of the good stuff left in it.

I find it all in the ratio, if you use abv something like, 0.2-0.3 avb per gram of coconut oil works well, the taste has never been good, i just solve that by putting it into capsules.
If you do save some up and try it again, i find making the butter or coconut oil, once strained add in some D9 and RSO if the original infusion isn’t strong enough for you.

I've not tried using coconut oil for making edibles but it seems a lot of people go for it. I'll have to get some in. The last batch of chocolate I made it seemed the melted chocolate didn't like being mixed in with the marg / rso / d9 mixture. It went massively stodgy like it was going to set.
I think I'd turn myself inside out if I tried to hit a stem full in one go. That's got about 0.2 in it I think.
Congratulations 🙌
Switched to full time vaping a few years ago, haven't had a joint since.
Started on a Crafty+ then upgraded to a Venty to get a better battery life.
The Venty is amazing, but like all vapes, you have to pick the one that suits your style.
I prefer to 'sip' mine, take a few puffs at low temp (around 180C), crank it up another 15C, then finish on max temp (210C)
You'll need to keep your device clean to get the best out of it, mine gets gunked up after 2-3 weeks of daily use, get yourself some isopropyl alcohol and soak the components every now & then.
Enjoy 💚

Thanks man. I've got little container with iso in. I soak the glass stems overnight in it. Then clean them off. As the whole vapour path is the glass stem that's pretty much it all clean. Sometimes I wipe the oven but generally that stays clean. That was one of the appeals or the Arizer setup.
I'm using the ruby twist pro on a little dab lab perc at home and use a tiny might when out and about
I had to Google the Ruby. Looks more complicated to control than a helicopter! I take it it's simpler than it looks? Tiny Might I considered. Looks an awesome little device.
How you keeping Bud, really enjoyed your topics, for myself I prefer glass pipe, like for the crack, Polish and Easter Europeans should know, Fifka lufka, that's how we called,smoking from it last 26 years never let me down last few years start using carbon filters inside, making more healthy, nearly never smoked with tobacco, don't know working on me like fuckin salvia, can't mix it, make my head and my ass going together, if this makes sense.
Start vaping from pax2 and thinking about pax3 where you can use concetrat as well, big difference with taste,experience, how long your stash lasting compere to other times, definitely more discreet, can't go on my balcony with blunt and blaze all apartment out, hard to switch but the experience all together is different kind of puppy, and is worth it.
When we are younger is all about how fast you will roll on with your homies and how hard you will laugh 😂 and how hard your abs will hurt next day, how long you will spend on toilet 🚽 🪠 after yesterday munchies,
getting older your session should be more discreet and enjoyable, as well kids asking more questions and you don't want them to be stigmatized after,
somebody said in hire treat yourself with dignity and invest in your experience, little bit more expensive weed or hash, or different vaporiser, don't stuck in one place for to long, and of course the breaks are more important than getting stoned every day, tolerance biach is nothing serious when you vaping, vape get you stoned every time, if you doing this properly, nothing can be rushed, make this as sort of kinda spiritual experience, take your time with it.
Hope this helps.

Thank man. Appreciate your kind words. I've got a glass pipe - and various other paraphernalia - but am just not combusting anymore. I miss the routine of rolling up as the pre-smoke phase was therapeutic and needed some care and finesse to complete which helped refocus my brain away from stress. Preparing to vape by cleaning up glass stems in alcohol is just not the same.
It's literally like a spiritual ritual, I would say - really enjoying the experience of playing with flowers, looking at them, and smelling them.
To be honest, if I didn't do the gym every 4days I would rip everyone to pisces at work, Nightshift doesn't help either 🤣🤟😅 hope not only me having high temper.

Did You Miss Me?
It's been a long time since I wrote a topic so I thought it was about time and I should explain my absence.
I'm Still Alive
Back in November I got covid/flu and got a bit of an infection afterwards with a few complications. I'm not a youngling anymore and I was a wee bit ill so I completely stopped smoking.
No More Tobacco
As I mixed tobacco into my joints it seemed to be a step forward to quit that anyway. The dull and grimey coloured packets themselves have long assured me in both photographic and boldly written formats that it's very bad stuff.
But THC is Good For Me
To keep cannabis flowing into my bloodstream I moved onto a mixture of edibles and dry herb vaping to see how I went with it. I'd planned to start smoking pure rolls once I'd recovered but I smoke surprisingly few of them even though my lungs are working again and I'm back to normal health.
I've sort of got used to the dry herb vaping. It took quite a while to fully adapt to it which is why I stopped doing the review write-ups. I quite like it now though.
Vaping For Pros
My dry herb vape is an X-max V3 pro. And like pretty much all products with the word 'pro' in the title it's unlikely to actually ever be used at any professional level.
I bought the glass mouthpiece for it which is much nicer than the standard plastic recorder-styled mouthpiece and I also bought a tube of horrifically overpriced dosing capsules. Both were recommended by an LB user so thanks to whoever that was. At the prices they charge for the capsules it was probably the Xmax CEO on LB. Multiple capsules are really essential for convenient heavy usage as I can stack them up preloaded and fire through them one at a time but honestly the price of them genuinely takes the piss.
Which Vape Do You Have?
I'm interested in other people's vaping equipment and experiences so please jump into the comments section. What do you use and why do you love it? I'd genuinely like to hear the opinions of LB weed vapers.
Mighty Plus
I was going to buy a Mighty Plus but I tried my mates regular Mighty out and my Xmax seemed better on flavour in a Pepsi challenge using Z-cube in both. A sidenote - the Z Cube from Green Cat was superb. It looked a bit scrappy, was a bit sticky, but flavour wise it was the full sweetshop of loveliness. I saved most of it for Christmas. The Mighty was an incredible device in the effective speed at which it turned cannabis into vapour. It was amazing really. But it didn't have me leaping to buy one.
Psychological Challenge
The other thing I didn't like as much was a psychological thing which I didn't expect but it was definitely a thing. The Xmax is sort of a bit cigaretty in shape and usage whereas the Mighty is less so. I find that familiarity in look and feel oddly comforting in terms of replacing smoking. However I did like the kick-arse heating element on the Mighty I must admit.
Superboof
This is the main reason I started writing this topic. As usual I've written an essay before even getting going. At least some things don't change.
I know there's a lot more orange fans on LB than orange buds generally so I like to share a good one when I know it's about.
The superboof strain is honestly one of my favourite buds of all time. Despite the changes in my weed absorption style, I can still tell this is a lovely example from The Wizard of Oz as soon as I open the bag.
Orange Promises
This boof is formed of dense nugs and you can immediately smell the orange heritage. The grinder confirms this as it unleashes orangey promises into the air.
Orange Clouds
In the vape the delicious orange flavours flow through in some nice thick cloudy vapour. That first initial hit of terps have the full dank dark orangeness I love. The stone is typically orange-like too in its double stage delivery.
At first it hits with a bit of energy. It's not panicky like a lemon haze but it definitely fires up your mind. The second stage about ten minutes later suddenly sedates it into a heavier chill.
Best of Both
Orange bud flavours are a best of both worlds high for me hence me passionately hyping them up every time some lands in my stash. This superboof is linked so if you fancy trying it for yourself click on that and go check it out on the Twoz listing page.
Thanks For Reading
Thanks for reading my topic - sorry it's been so long since I've written one. I hope it was informative and if not I hope it's been entertaining in some way.
I'd thought about doing various write ups over the last couple of months but I really took a lot of adjusting to things and I'd sometimes start but just struggle to find the words. So I'm glad to be back.
Hopefully I'll get back to doing these topics more regularly when I find bits and bobs that make me excitable - and so long as people on LB are interested in reading them.
I look forward to seeing you all in the next topic. Thanks LB. Let me know about your vaping setups in the comments section.

But THC is Good For Me
To keep cannabis flowing into my bloodstream I moved onto a mixture of edibles and dry herb vaping to see how I went with it. I'd planned to start smoking pure rolls once I'd recovered but I smoke surprisingly few of them even though my lungs are working again and I'm back to normal health.
I've sort of got used to the dry herb vaping. It took quite a while to fully adapt to it which is why I stopped doing the review write-ups. I quite like it now though.
Vaping For Pros
My dry herb vape is an X-max V3 pro. And like pretty much all products with the word 'pro' in the title it's unlikely to actually ever be used at any professional level.
I bought the glass mouthpiece for it which is much nicer than the standard plastic recorder-styled mouthpiece and I also bought a tube of horrifically overpriced dosing capsules. Both were recommended by an LB user so thanks to whoever that was. At the prices they charge for the capsules it was probably the Xmax CEO on LB. Multiple capsules are really essential for convenient heavy usage as I can stack them up preloaded and fire through them one at a time but honestly the price of them genuinely takes the piss.
Which Vape Do You Have?
I'm interested in other people's vaping equipment and experiences so please jump into the comments section. What do you use and why do you love it? I'd genuinely like to hear the opinions of LB weed vapers.
Mighty Plus
I was going to buy a Mighty Plus but I tried my mates regular Mighty out and my Xmax seemed better on flavour in a Pepsi challenge using Z-cube in both. A sidenote - the Z Cube from Green Cat was superb. It looked a bit scrappy, was a bit sticky, but flavour wise it was the full sweetshop of loveliness. I saved most of it for Christmas. The Mighty was an incredible device in the effective speed at which it turned cannabis into vapour. It was amazing really. But it didn't have me leaping to buy one.
Psychological Challenge
The other thing I didn't like as much was a psychological thing which I didn't expect but it was definitely a thing. The Xmax is sort of a bit cigaretty in shape and usage whereas the Mighty is less so. I find that familiarity in look and feel oddly comforting in terms of replacing smoking. However I did like the kick-arse heating element on the Mighty I must admit.
Superboof
This is the main reason I started writing this topic. As usual I've written an essay before even getting going. At least some things don't change.
I know there's a lot more orange fans on LB than orange buds generally so I like to share a good one when I know it's about.
The superboof strain is honestly one of my favourite buds of all time. Despite the changes in my weed absorption style, I can still tell this is a lovely example from The Wizard of Oz as soon as I open the bag.
Orange Promises
This boof is formed of dense nugs and you can immediately smell the orange heritage. The grinder confirms this as it unleashes orangey promises into the air.
Orange Clouds
In the vape the delicious orange flavours flow through in some nice thick cloudy vapour. That first initial hit of terps have the full dank dark orangeness I love. The stone is typically orange-like too in its double stage delivery.
At first it hits with a bit of energy. It's not panicky like a lemon haze but it definitely fires up your mind. The second stage about ten minutes later suddenly sedates it into a heavier chill.
Best of Both
Orange bud flavours are a best of both worlds high for me hence me passionately hyping them up every time some lands in my stash. This superboof is linked so if you fancy trying it for yourself click on that and go check it out on the Twoz listing page.
Thanks For Reading
Thanks for reading my topic - sorry it's been so long since I've written one. I hope it was informative and if not I hope it's been entertaining in some way.
I'd thought about doing various write ups over the last couple of months but I really took a lot of adjusting to things and I'd sometimes start but just struggle to find the words. So I'm glad to be back.
Hopefully I'll get back to doing these topics more regularly when I find bits and bobs that make me excitable - and so long as people on LB are interested in reading them.
I look forward to seeing you all in the next topic. Thanks LB. Let me know about your vaping setups in the comments section.
Congratulations on ditching the dreaded tobacco, dry herb vaping is far better.
I used to smoke spliffs (with tobacco) then switched to pure joints and finally on to dry herb vaping.
My first vape was a Crafty+ & loved it but not the battery life, I finally upgraded to a Venty and absolutely love it. I vape 1 bowl every evening, getting through around 1.5g / week, the vapour that comes off the Venty is incredible, smooth, tasty & long lasting & I only need to charge it once every 4 - 5 days.
There's a good reason vapes are far better, lower temperatures means more cannabinoids & terpenes are consumed rather than being destroyed by 1000C+ temperatures at the end of a joint + of course no combustion means no nasty chemicals.
Enjoy your vaping journey, I'm sure, like me, you'll never go back.

Thanks man. The battery life sucks on the X-max but it is pretty small. It's always on charge. I'm still very much in two minds as to which vape I'll buy. I'll check out the venty though. I still go through a fair bit of weed so I'll get a fair amount of use out of whatever I end up buying.
I also have an Arizer XQ2 desktop vape (similar to the Volcano)
Doesn't get much use & only comes out with company but it's a beast of a vape, love the balloon & whip attachments.
Worth a look if you don't need something portable.

I know the Arizer brand cropped up on my searches. I'll check that out. It doesn't have to be portable as I mostly toke at home. Thanks man.
Ive got 11 cigarettes and an 8th of flower to go then I will be joining the great Vape exodus. Want to have at least a week off before trying my new Mighty Plus (which is problematic...)
I definitely went through a lengthy period of change but I'm genuinely reaching for the vape pretty happily now. Rolling a proper smoke doesn't taste nearly as nice as it once did. Giving up the tobacco was intense though. I still get random cravings out the blue. Good luck with it man. Let me know how you get on.
I can vouch for the Venty. I used the Mighty for years and the Venty is a definite upgrade. I use a glass adapater that you can store in the freezer pre use for chilled vapour.
I also use the Venty. I've had it for almost a year now and my only advice is to not push the inner vent in to make more room for the dosing capsules as this will quickly gunk up your device and capsules after 6 days.
Once I stopped doing that, the venty only needs to be cleaned every half month or 3 weeks. Went from smoking joints and going through 0.8g a day minimum to 0.4g maximum with the venty.
Dry herbing has shown to be a money saver for me. High feels stronger too. Probably the most satisfying confident purchase I have made in a long time.

Thanks man. Stopping was easy when I was ill. Not starting again has definitely taken some willpower. I wasn't myself at all for a couple of months. Hard to know how much of that was recovery and how much was a lack of tobacco. Seem to be on the up now.
Hey Roo, I remember that you once told me that 'they would have to pry the pouch of baccy from your cold dead hands'
So happy that's not going to be the case, mate!
Glad you are feeling a little more your normal self
You got this ; )

Hehehe - that sounds exactly like me. I didn't really quit, my lungs refused smoke for long enough to back me into the corner of re-evaluation. I'm at an age where it makes sense though so hopefully I'm on the up. I'm liking the dry herb vaping now though. Thanks man.
It’s definitely worth looking into Dynavap. But only with an induction heater. It’s a massive faff to use with a torch I found. The Yllvape version 1 is the one I have and it’s dead easy to use, won’t break the bank either.
I'd ruled it out because of the flame. In my hands that's a disaster waiting to happen. I'll check out a video later to understand the process a bit better on the Dyno as quite a few people have mentioned them. Thanks man.
I've had a mighty plus for a while but have found that I get virtually no flavour when vaping hash through it... Any ideas why?
I'm back smoking single skin spliffs
I'm back smoking single skin spliffs
Honestly no idea. I've tried vaping hash once or twice I think and neither time it was very good in the Xmax despite having a dosing capsule specifically for hash.
Hey BigRoo, good to see you back and glad you are feeling better.
Dhv is well worth sticking to, I tried a couple off a joint at Christmas after almost 2 years of only vaping and it tasted horrible.
I have got a tinymight2 which is great but terrible battery life and a dynavap B for vaping bud, I am also tempted to get a dynavap G3 which you might want to check out as it is pretty much cigarette size and only costs about £35.
I am a squishaholic at the moment I just keep pressing everything I grow or buy and I love rosin so I bought myself a puffco peak to hit the rosin in which is a great little device
I still use the xmax v3 mostly for hash and any darker rosin. I may be the one responsible for recommending the dosing caps, they may seem pricey but are well worth getting. I would also recommend the water adapter so you can put it through a bong, and the rattler or rocket stem mouthpiece with the glass beads for cooling ( promise I don't work for xmax🤣)
💚

Sounds like something someone who works for Xmax would say...!
The dosing caps have made a huge difference as has the glass mouthpiece. The caps just let me chill and blitz through them. I don't know why it bothered me more to fill the single cap it came with on repeat but it definitely did.
I had a few neat spliffs over Xmas. Like you say, the taste was off for me. This has been a key reason I stopped reviews. They'd have all stated "tastes like bonfire smoke" up until recently which wouldn't help anyone out. My taste went a bit weird when I was ill too.
But on the vape I've become accustomed to the flavours now so can get back into it. I didn't realise how many dry herb vapers there were on LB.
Thanks man.

I have the tiny might 2, good vape imo and can hit like a train or provide a good session.
Ease of knock out and refill does mean that dosing caps aren’t really necessary. However I never smoke more than a bowl because 12 year break made me a lightweight, def not a problem as an 8th lasts me weeks despite daily usage!

I briefly had a lower tolerance after I was ill. I think I got most of it back over a single weekend where I cained everything I could that wasn't smoking. Although on day one of that I got so stoned I couldn't work out how to use my phone. Was really high man. Full cerebral stuff going on.
I started with a Crafty+, now got a Terpcicle and Solo 3. Since getting the Solo 3 I haven't touched another device, the Terpcicle is good bit a bit more of a pain in the arse having to use a torch.
I've looked at the solo 3. The only thing that threw me was that it didn't have dosing capsules which is a feature I like on the Xmax despite whining about the price. The solo though ticks a lot of boxes for me. How do you find refilling it?
I'm not sure about using anything that requires a flame as I'm pretty dumb when it comes to fire.

Looking back at using the dosing caps with the Crafty+ they were a pain in the arse. So much easier with the solo and cleaning is much easier.
I have the same xmax however I'm always using the dynavap. Much more enjoyable although Xmax is good for out and about. I also have the water pipe for when I feel like treating myself. Green cat is legendary.
I ditched tobacco (blunts only) like 11 years ago and then switch to vape only after entering the dynaverse about 5 years ago. Partial to a live resin 510 cartridge also (vendor vape boutique)

I'll check out the Dyno. I definitely need more than one device anyway in case I have a problem. When I bought the Xmax I just wanted to try vaping. Now I'm a full time vaper I'm willing to spend out on something as I'll use it all the time.
I'll check out vape boutique too - I'm looking to get some carts at the moment. I used my 50/50 live resin cart over Xmas while I was out and about.

Just ordered from VB (and WOZ) so we'll soon find out.
Seem to remember you (or maybe Budzinho) recommended them in the past, but they were absent from LB at the time.
But in my absence they returned and now I have, having been "sober" for six months...
Congrats on ditching tobacco: I did early last year and although the benefits weren't immediate, I am the better for it!

I've had love lovely bits from Twoz previously. I'm going to buy more of the superboof too. Their d9 & RSO has always been super strong. I had some d9 a while back and had to adjust my cookie dosage as the first lot blew my head off.
Thanks man - I hope quitting smoking is helping me as I struggled initially and was really all over the place. I still get cravings at random times.

It seems that VB is to vapes, as British Bulldog is to weed.
Ordered a couple to test the waters and shop was empty before I could order more.
Smooth, tasty & strong.
Super Boof dispo from TWOZ was also poky, but I found the vape itself gimicky and distracting.
Developing something of a preference for 510 carts, over dispos in general I think.
Got some D9 carts from Dr Terpy to try: different methods of flavouring...

I had a VB cart lined up to buy but it was out of stock by the time I put my order through. I've got a 510 pen thing and have a 50/50 live resin / d9 cart at the moment. It's pretty handy while out and about but definitely has a synthetic taste to it. I'll pick up a new cart when VB have them again. I'm still deciding which dry herb vape to buy as an upgrade to my xmax. Probably will be an Arizer Solo 2 or Solo 3.
Vape boutiques carts are like breathing in a fresh bud, exquisite. The dynavap is brilliant cus you essentially vape a whole Xmas bowl (or less) in one puff, so much closer so smoking hit wise. But still full flavour and pure vape.
I looked at Dyno. You have to use a torch to heat it? It sounds like the sort of thing I'll start a fire with!
Small single jet flame lighter or bigger. I use an induction heater - see link, and never looked back. Torch ok for out and about, etc. and once over the learning curve is absolutely fine but the IH is just a smoother hit and less faff (less cleaning too), although too bulky for out and about.
1-3 flavourful hits and done. I would say more flavour and less inhaling required over the xmax (I have one as well) but I mainly use a Tinymight, about 3 years in and is still my favourite. The hit and flavour is simply lovely.

Thanks man. Me and fire are generally a bad combination. It's interesting though as I had thought all vapes were electric.
You can get an induction heater pack but I've never used one. Been using same chef blow torch for past 5 years. The only accident has been when my mate came round and I heated it for him and then he put the hot end in his mouth 🤯 I thought it seemed like faff until I got one, never looked back! That same device is still as good as the day I bought it.
Hey Roo, well done for coming across from the Dark Side 👹 (combustion!). You won’t regret it!
Thanks mate. It wasn't exactly planned but it seems like the way forward at least health-wise.
Welcome back!
I've said it before and I'll say it again for those at the back - the volcano is the way forward. It's the only device that I haven't bailed on after a month of usage.
Advantages over other vapes:
- huge capacity balloons
- bigger hits
- super tasty + temp control
- dosing capsules compatible
- bubbler compatible***
The volcano mixed with a Hubble bubbler is by far the tastiest and most sustainable way of consuming, for the self aware stoner. Feel free to ping me for extra details :)

So Many Orange Buds Available Right Now on LB

So Many Orange Buds Available Right Now on LB
Did You Know...
It's probably no secret that I am a big fan of orange flavours. When I joined LB one of my first topics was me desperately looking for orange bud options and hoping that I could connect with other fans to help lift the profile of our favourite flavour. I've written about orange flavours a number of times since.
Times Change
I've just had a flick through the current listings and I noticed that things have changed and there's a whole bunch of orangey flavours available right now. We have orange options folks.
I'd always hoped the world would wake up to the benefits of consuming orange buds and it looks like it has.
So I've quickly compiled the current orange options I could see. If you know of any more drop them into the comments please.
Many orange oriented strains don't seem to have the fruit in the name nowadays like Superboof, Mimosa, Miami, Spritz or Tropicana Cookies.
So hopefully this list will be useful to some of you lovely people.
Orange Bud Options:
The Wizards of Oz - Superboof
https://littlebiggy.net/link/2bsoe1
7g = $76
I've just ordered this one a second time as it's absolutely lovely. Dark citrus flavours and a full orange two-stage stone. Mmmmm. It's hard to imagine any orange fan not loving the boof. Twoz are a great vendor too. Comms, speed, stealth & products are all top notch.
---
Weed World Flavours - Superboof
https://littlebiggy.net/link/okQiIA
7g = $80
I've not ordered from here before but they look like an up and coming vendor. Has anyone ordered here who can share their experience?
---
The Green Team - Superboof
https://littlebiggy.net/link/Twa8b1
7g = $90
I haven't ordered from TGT for ages but back in the day they were excellent and they used to run a loyalty scheme which was very forward thinking and rewarded repeat buyers. I'm not sure if they're still doing it. I imagine it's a logistical pain at their end.
---
The Green Team - Super Buff Cherry
https://littlebiggy.net/link/36Cl8O
3.5g = $50
This was recommended to me a while back but I've not ordered any. The superboof cross and personal recommendation suggest it will be an orangey winner though. It's also a positive sign that growers are taking the boof to new levels.
---
Green Cat - Mimosa Punch
https://littlebiggy.net/link/b477xM
7g = $60
GC are one of my favourite vendors on LB and account for a lot of the weed I consume. This Mimosa Punch at sixty bucks a quarter is a great example as to why. They're very hard to beat in terms of bang for your buck.
---
Green Cat - Mimosa
https://littlebiggy.net/link/UoNvkI
7g = $65
This is probably the better choice from GC for orange fans. I've not had this batch yet but the previous Mimosa was absolutely lovely. In fact I think I've just talked myself into ordering some before it runs out.
---
Gentlemen Dealers - Mimosa
https://littlebiggy.net/link/Z7zSXI
3.5g = $40
I've never ordered from TGD before but they're well established. I note they do decent prices on the oz too on another listing if you're looking for bigger amounts.
---
Gentlemen Dealers - Tropicana Banana
https://littlebiggy.net/link/JwqicC
3.5g = $35.75
I've not had this strain from here or anywhere else so I don't know its orange credentials. The lineage suggests it could be an orange winner but the Tropicana side can go either way in flavour as cookies often dominate. If anyone has had this strain please let me know how it was.
---
Gentlemen Dealers - Jungle Boys Packs
https://littlebiggy.net/link/qU6IKM
3.5 = $120
It's above my price point for an eighth of weed in a fancy bag but if you're a high roller then there's a couple of interesting JB options here including a Tropicana.

Cannabis Cannibals - Tangerine Dream Pre rolls
https://littlebiggy.net/link/1awh5S
1 cone = $15
I'd always prefer to roll freshly ground buds in my own way but I notice people do buy the prerolls and that CC have this tangerine variation prerolled.
I've had this strain before and to me it was like an orange haze in taste and effects. CC are solid vendors and super friendly. I've ordered from them a number of times. They actually introduced me to the Superboof in the first place.

Magic Vape UK - Shake
https://littlebiggy.net/link/s9PmVu
28g = $60
I've never ordered from MVUK but have quite often been curious about their listings. This could be a cheap way to get some orange into your bloodstream as they have a Mimosa shake.
That's All Folks
So that's my orange roundup. I hope it inspires some of you to join me in my orange world. Let me know how you get on if you order any of these strains. I'm genuinely interested to know so don't be shy.
There's also quite a few orange based extracts and hashes available at the moment too which I've not listed here but might be worth your consideration for an all out orange session. What a time to be alive.
Thanks For Reading
Thanks as always for reading my topic. I hope it's been informative and if not I hope it was entertaining in some way.
Let me know if if you've had any of these strains and if you're an orange fan in the comments section.
Thanks LB.

There's also quite a few orange based extracts and hashes available at the moment too which I've not listed here but might be worth your consideration for an all out orange session. What a time to be alive.
Thanks For Reading
Thanks as always for reading my topic. I hope it's been informative and if not I hope it was entertaining in some way.
Let me know if if you've had any of these strains and if you're an orange fan in the comments section.
Thanks LB.
Just wanted to say thanks for making me aware of the superboof from the wizards from your recent vaping post! Incredible stuff
I've saved a small chunk for this weekend and ordered more. It's lovely stuff. Glad you've liked it. I've had some lovely bits from twoz previously. They had a White Widow a while back that I ordered loads of. It was the perfect mix of old school flavour from a modern grow.
I would also like to thank you for mentioning the strains you did, I luckily managed to grab the last of the superboof missed out on 7gs was in my basket next day it was unavailable haha so got the last 3.5 and boy its lovely, I wouldn't say its orange id say grapefruit the red/pink grapefruit you can buy, anyway cheers mate come across anything like that again or anything with nice terps please reply here... il be waiting lol cheers geezer you got good taste just like me 👍
I've got a q of the Superboof saved to one side for a special occasion. I really love that stuff.
The taste reference is towards the original old California Orange Bud you'd get in Dam coffee shops back in the day. Arguably that wasn't really that orange either when compared to the fruit as it's not nearly as sweet. Many of the descendent strains carry that original flavour and effect over. That's the strain reference point. Like many old people I live half in the past!
I've been enjoying the Z-cube from Green Cat (linked). It's a little bit airy / scrappy and a bit sticky but, and it's a big but, as soon as you open the bag you know you're in for a treat. It stinks. And it doesn't let you down once you're smoking it. One of the nicest tasting z strains I've had. It's the full sweetshop flavour. I've had it about 3 or 4 times since it's been in stock as I keep going back for more.

Your one lucky man haha its definitely the sort of terps I love, ive also had z cube and ozk from green cat cant remember which one tasted more like orange/ zkittles tho, also tiizer is very close to them and superboof, if you can get nice tiizer you will not be disappointed, manged to get some of the first batch from the hash collective ages ago but the 2nd batch wasn't as good unfortunately. But yea anyway thanks for your post mate so glad I went for the strain I did shake i missed out on the last 7gs, (crying in pain) lol cheers again il be keeping a eye out for any more of your posts/recommendations. Enjoy the rest of your night mate and think il be putting 2gs of mine away for a rainy day 💯
Tizer - I've not had that but have seen it a couple of times. Next time I'll order it. Thanks man.
Good to see you back in action I was wondering what happened.
I got some mimosa x orange punch coming soon so I will be popping up in your messages soon! :)

Thank man. I'm a dry herb vaper now following illness at the tail end of last year. I have a few pure rolled smokes but honestly I'm mostly converted to vaporising my buds. I wrote a bit about it last week. Link attached..
I'll look forward to your Mimosa Punch mate. It's a lovely strain. It can look a wee bit scrappy compared to the shaved pebbles style buds but it's filled with flavour when done right.

That's a good call mate! I've been smoking pures for the past 5 years and never looked back to mixing with tobacco again since. There's so much more flavours in the joints! I'm putting up some photos of the girls soon. They look beautiful.

Tron Ares 3D - Stoner Experience
I will be disappointed with all of stoned society if loads of us aren't indulging in a mixture of drugs and the audio visual spectacular Tron Ares in 3d.
It's truly made for a spaced out cinema experience. I wouldn't want to give any spoilers away and the plot is so light that it'd be easy to accidentally blurt out in it's entirety. However, if you happened to be on mushrooms or a heavy edible then the simplistic plot and your capacity to fathom a storyline will be well matched.
That simplicity will allow you to sit back and enjoy the thrill ride of the spacey visuals and the pumping mix of electronica and distortion which perfectly binds the film together into a borderline magical experience.
I found it a most entertaining way to spend a couple of hours. It'd probably be more popular if they gave out my RSO cookies in the foyer instead of popcorn.
Thanks for reading the worst film review ever. I desperately didn't want to blow the plot but I do hope it inspires some of you to go check it out. There was only 8 people in the cinema I watched it in and I'm pretty sure I was more spangled than all of them combined. That's a shame.

Always wanted to try the 3d cinema but never actually got around to it. One would have thought back in the 90s that this kind of cinema would be the standard in 2025 lol
I've seen some videos of this taken to another level where the walls have visuals as if the screen was extended to the sides. Must be trippy to watch.

The IMAX at Waterloo has a screen that's bigger than your field of vision and has speakers behind the screen so sound tracks where it's really coming from..3d films there are genuinely unnerving. Well worth going to see anything there just for the experience. There's other IMAX around the country but I've no idea what they're like. The BMI one though will blow your mind man.
8 people in the cinema even spread widely across the seats is still 8 too many people for me, so I'll wait for a good torrent haha
Wasnt expecting much from it tbf after 10 years in development hell and a dozen different writers, producers and directors all jumping in and out like Hollywood is entirely high on peruvian bam bam doing the fucking hokie kokie churning out brain dead escapist tripe that truly makes the Lumiere brothers turn in their French graves. The decaying of the 20th centuries grandest art form reduced to crappy CGI, half baked scripts and bad acting.
Where was I?
Oh yeah, the 25 years too late Tron. Honestly to hear it is in fact worth watching when I get my shrooms delivery, is very welcome news Roo thanks haha
Not the worst review i've read, shit, Ive had worse published pmsl

The previous Tron Legacy was also very light on plot but the simple story and mix of sound and visual carried it a long way. In the newer one there's probably a little more story but it's probably a little less meaningful. As a Spacey jaunt through light and sound it's joyous. A story needn't be complex to be good. The first cube movie was endlessly simple but they really pulled a lot from it. Probably the best low budget film I've ever seen.
I reckon your Tron mushroom combo will be a winner. A lot of it is clearly shot for 3d though and I'm not sure how much of that you'll pick up on. Some of the cool 3d shots will probably just be lingering pans on a 2d screen for no apparent reason whereas it was like a rollercoaster movie at the cinema in 3d. I'll be interested to see how it compares when it's available.

That's my issue with 3D it never has real purpose? Never enriches the narrative or even experience, just big flashy distraction at the emptiness of the film.
But it dont matter because damn its fun the way i watch 3D at the cinema 🤣
Loved Cube. Gave me claustrophobic nighmtarees for months lol
Modern Hollywood saddens me. Best films have been low budget since tarantino sold Dogs at Sundance, Rodriguez sold El Mariachi and Smith sold Clerks. Streaming has made serials better than films. Crazy how tv has improved so much so fast tbf while film has declined year by year since Lucas showed the world how cheap and practical digital fiming truly was with that god awful prequel trilogy.
The death of 'film' and the rise of 'digital' an age where depth of field is now a flat green screen; but the graphics are amazing 😂

I guess 3d was largely an attempt to make the cinema special again and give people a reason to go. It looks like most people have walked away from it as it's not popular except on certain more visual films.
The TV format has improved immensely but there's not the same payoff as with a good film. Lots of series get cancelled before they get close to making any point or completing a story arc. We get to see endless back stories of minor characters. There's a lot of filler content.
I think the worst thing in Hollywood has been the reboots. Every time they reboot something some poor writer with an original idea gets overlooked. It stifles creativity. I suppose arguably that the Tron movie that started this discussion sits in that category.

That pay off tho is much more personally impactive due to the time spent with that narrative and tv shows have dozens of story threads to tie up unlike a film which is self contained. Totally agree though, cancelled shows and bad endings are fat too common and something studios must figure out asap
Tv offers more of a venue to return than film tho which can offer salvation and redemption like Dexter did
And yeah I totally agree filler is a big issue on shows the longer the season the worse it gets. Whxih is where I think British uk thrives, short self contained seasons that follow a clear arc.
3D is just a gimmick, was in the 70s when it flopped and it is now as box office numbers attest too lol its where cinema screwed up massively. Historically when times were bad cinemas offered mega deals to encourage people to go in, Hollywood doubled efforts on quality not quantity to give value for money. Modern Hollywood said fuck cinema, fuck the audience and threw gimmicks at us instead. Breaking a century old relationship with viewers and venue and studios. Losing rhe "cinemas" social relevance and community based function entirely.

Lots of shows fully deserved cancellation as they artificially try to stretch the plot endlessly. Every episode has a hook into the next, each season the same. The modern format makes a story almost impossible to complete. It's a shame that they can't complete a story in season 1 and have people think, hey that's a great story - I'd like another one. Instead they keep fleshing it out and cliff hanging it until it's so bloated that the core point is lost.
I mostly download series in their entirety after they've completed. It's a bit sad but I ask AI if the story completes before starting it. I invested too much time in half finished stories that I'll never know the end of.
One of the only exceptions to this has been the Foundation series which I think has been brilliant so far. One of the best pieces of TV Scifi I've seen. I really hope they complete it.
It's interesting actually how cinema loses it's visitors. We went for burritos after Tron. That'd be an easy sale for a cinema. We walked through the empty foyer to leave. That area could be a vibrant and film based bar / cafe. So you could hang out and discuss the film after. You'd likely meet up beforehand too. The cinema would be a social event. It'd significantly extend the time and money you'd spend there. But then the films need to be worth discussing too.

What's next from you, book recommendations?
We should definitely all experience a few things stoned. A night out at the cinema, a good walk in nature, spending time with friends etc. The list goes on. You've inspired me to see what is on at the local cinema this weekend and may have created the thought of a curry with some friends.
It would appear I'm going to have to plan a stoners night out.

Back in the day a couple of mates went to see gremlins 2 on acid. Midway through the film the gremlins take over the projector. Mates had a wee freak out and legged it from the cinema.
I hadn't been to the cinema for ages. I was surprised how quiet it was. Glad I went though. I had a great time.

At the Cinema Hulk Hogan was in that scene but on the video version it was totally different for some reason 🤔
The eternal internal struggle between wanting to see visually stunning films in the cinema but also wanting to smoke during them at home 😞
I'll get a projector setup someday 🤞

Spritz & Friends

Spritz & Friends
Quality Grows
Keep It Green grew one of my favourite orange bits a while back - Orangina. They had a lovely Mimosa Evo back then too. This Spritz caught my attention so I thought I'd share it with the LB community.
As you'd expect from KIG, the Spritz has been well cared for and is super clean. The buds are hand trimmed and pretty densely compact.
Grinding Spritz
In the grinder my orange radar pinged immediately; There's a strong hint in the smell. Now sometimes, like with Tropicana Cookies, that orange promise is not always fully delivered upon but I'm immediately very curious. I noted in the reviews that someone compared it to Mimosa which obviously caught my attention and is a good sign. Let's find out.
Lighting It Up
First impression: Mmmmm. Oranges. Bloody hell that's a nice citrus flavour.
It's not quite as orangey as a boof or a mimosa but it's got the dank deep citrus edge I love. That's not to say it's not as flavourful - it is - but it's more of a complexly mixed citrus rather than a pure orange focus. The smoke arrives in thick oily clouds of deliciousness. After just a few puffs I know I'd have this one again for sure. It's definitely ticking a lot of my boxes even before the stone fully kicks in. If you like orange buds or mimosa you'll probably like this too.
Stone
The effects are orange-like too in that it's a light smoke to start with and slowly gets heavier as you chug away with the last parts of the stone catching up with you ten minutes after you stub. It's initially cerebrally invigorating and you need to meet it half way but it's a lovely energising buzz that becomes a much heavier sedated stone as it settles in. It's not like a panicky full haze energy buzz but it's a thoughtful stone. Which I'm down with as I like thinking. At least I think I do. I'll sit and have a think about it.
I Approve
The Spritz absolutely gets my approval. Not least for popping some unexpected orangeness into my life. It's decently strong stuff and two smokes back to back have given me need for a little sofa moment where, for at least a short while, I simply ain't going nowhere.
Even the effort of reaching towards the table for my tea seems like too much. But I want the tea. It's a battle that probably only a stoner will understand. Yes, it will be cold by the time I overcome my pothead paralysis and reach for it. No, it doesn't make sense to wait. Yes, I'll still wait.
Spritz Hash
I also had a small bit of the spritz hash and a couple of other buds which I enjoyed but didn't do a long write up on although I've noted them below.
The hash is a dry sift and smells like heaven when you warm up the block to check it. It's probably one of the freshest smelling hashes I've had and the aroma is a lot like the bud. The bud-like smell doesn't fully transform into taste though sadly like with most hashes. It isn't a spicy / hashy like an old school Moroccan either though and is more purely gassy like an extract. It's pretty strong stuff and produces thick clouds of smoke. It's a nice little treat.
LH2P
This bud tastes how I expected the spiritz would - like a lemonade gas. It's strong stuff and a lovely smoke. The name is like a lesser known Star Wars robot from a spin-off series though. And it probably only beeps. Not one of the talking ones. That aside it's second favourite here.
Blue Peach
This one's a true blue and reminiscent of an original blueberry from way back when but much stronger than an old flavour. I think old school blue seekers might enjoy this but for me the other two buds outclass it with more complex flavours and wilder stones. Perhaps others will prefer the blue for its more refined flavour profile and easier going - but still powerful - stone.
If these three buds were the original Top Gear trio then this one would be James May. I think that's the best way I can explain it.

Trusting LB Ratings Over My Own Choices: Apple & Cream

Trusting LB Ratings Over My Own Choices: Apple & Cream
The Kid Who Ate All The Sweets
I was like a kid in a sweet shop on LB when I first joined. While that feeling hasn't ever quite left me I had really started to zone into my favourites and derivatives of late and had gotten into a bit of a loop.
More Sparkle
When it came to order time I was becoming less excited and as I'd seek out the same things on repeat it felt more mundane. It was a chore like popping to the supermarket. Now, in many ways, that's exactly how buying dried herbs online should feel like and I fully adore Little Biggy for making it so, but I just wanted to get a little bit of the sparkle back into our relationship.
Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit
I've probably mentioned previously once or twice that I quite like orange bud for example. So things like Green Cats Mimosa or Cannabis Cannibals Superboof were an obvious match for my tastes and I have repeatedly thrown my coins at those sorts of products. I've actually got a little Mimosa tucked away from Green Cat currently. Lovely stuff. I'm not faulting it for a moment.
Changing Behaviours
However, for my most recent order I fancied something different than I usually go for. But what? How do I change up the monotony of my own purchase behaviour loop?
Fear
While I wanted to roll the dice on something different I didn't want to end up stuck with weed I don't enjoy. That fear was holding me back.
Budget
I'm on a budget like I suspect many people here are so I can't just keep buying endless bits of weed until I find something that tickles my fancy, I have to smoke what I buy. Yes, not exactly a hardship, but it's still my reality and so whatever I do buy I'm making a commitment to.
Leap Of Faith
I decided to put my faith and trust in the Green Cat buyers ratings for my new choice as I was ordering a super-cheapie there anyway. Things like the Silver Bubble or the more recent Red Kush are incredibly well priced stash fillers.
This Is All Your Fault
I looked through the recent GC ratings and I picked from the things you folks rated the highest at the time. These are your 9.9's. So this introduction was basically just a very long way to say that if this all goes badly then I'm blaming you. It is everyone else's fault but mine.
My Order
I ended up ordering two flavour types I've had before but that I didn't really love. I went for Apple Fritter and Cream Soda. I really hoped the GC customers were onto something I'd missed. Both of these were at 9.9 ratings - albeit on fairly low volumes of reviews. I couldn't help but feel that I may be doing a stupid thing here but it was a new thing and I felt excited by it so I ran with it.
An Exercise In Trust
This is the cannabis buying equivalent of the trust exercise when you stand up then have to fall backwards with your eyes shut and rely upon someone catching you so you don't stack it into the floor. Will the GC customers have my back and catch me? Or am I hitting the deck? Let's find out.
Apple Fritter
https://littlebiggy.net/link/ZXYkvG
Let's start with the Apple Fritter. This is 65 bucks a quarter. I've had an apple strain before and I didn't like it. It had an unpleasant tang and a headiness I didn't get on with. Even as I write that sentence I am reviewing my own stupidity. There will be no need for anyone to point this out to me if it goes badly.
Grinding Apple
The Apple Fritter unsurprisingly has an apple smell immediately in the grinder. There's more complexity than that but it's fully earned at least half its name. Since I'm not an apple fan my first thought is to wonder what the hell I was thinking. However, we're all in and committed now so let's see what's what.
Smoking Apple
Lighting up I'm met with nice thick smoke and an initial musk note that reminds me of the old musky silver haze flavour I can't seem to find anywhere.
At first I thought it was going to be like a fruity nerds which has a similar backnote. But this is quickly overpowered with sour notes that remind me of an apple laced sour diesel. This sourness is packaged up inside some sweeter notes making it a really interesting and balanced smoke that remains tasty and varied throughout.
I Like It
I'm enjoying it much more than I expected. Which is good as I've bought a bit of it so I'll be chugging at it for a couple of days.
The hit has a heady few minutes to kick off which is then eased with a slow hitting but heavier chilled stone. So it's not manic or too cerebral. It does get your attention but is very easy to get along with.
Overall
Overall it's a lovely smoke and I thank the good people of Little Biggy for rating it highly and thus aiming me at it for purchase.
Your Reviews Help
If you ever wonder if your buyer reviews have an impact then they do and I hope this makes you feel better about taking the time to do them. Apple Fritter reviewers - I thank you.
But What About The Creamy One?
It's 1-0 to the GC reviewers so far. Will they bang in the winner? I've had cream strains a few times and I don't fully understand them. I don't dislike them the way I dislike Stardawg or Lemon Haze but I generally don't seem to get along with them.
Generally they've seemed to me to be a way to dilute a nicer flavour that was trying to get out. Again I don't need anyone to point out my own stupidity for ordering something I might not like but so far it's actually worked out great.
Cream Soda
https://littlebiggy.net/link/ks0JLi
The Cream Soda has decent sized buds that are pretty dense. Like the apple it's also 65 bucks a quarter.
Grinding Cream
In the grinder it immediately reminds me of Gelato. It's not a derivative strain though as far as I know.
Smoking Cream
Sparking it up the first drag was a little muted but the early tastes I get are subtle notes of cream with a gassy or kushy note. Maybe there's a blue hint in there. Maybe it's not as fruity as a blue and it's more like a red wine. For me the cream does dull this but it is slick and velvety smooth to smoke. Perhaps that's a core appeal to cream fans.
Creamed
The stone is decently strong but very easy. It arrives as smoothly as it smokes so it's like it's giving you a bit of a cuddle. It's a very safe high but not by any means weak. It keeps on arriving after you think it's arrived. Then it arrives some more. But it's a reassuring high that is easy going and feels like everything is pretty okay.
Quality Check
I'm going to dip into this again later as it may have been a little muted because I'd been at the apple for a while. You won't have to wait though as this is not a live performance.
Round Two
Okay we're going for round two on the Cream Soda. In the grinder, along with the vanilla that reminds me of Gelato is a sort of soured port barrel smell like a cookies or a Durban strain. Perhaps these are the soured wine and fruit notes I was trying to describe earlier.
Second Smoke
Smoking the second one I'm still at butter cream icing flavours that stifle potentially fruitier notes. It still reminds me of a creamy gelato. It is a nice strong smoke and I am enjoying it though.
The more I plow through it the more I enjoy the stone which really is lovely and keeps on rolling in after you stub. However, for me, it's just missing a magic something. There's nothing wrong with the weed itself - I'm pretty sure that the cream lovers at GC were correct with their high rating - it's just a flavour that's just not quite right for me.
Flavour wise it is both literally and figuratively a bit too vanilla for my tastes. I'm still glad I've tried it though and the strong stone is well worth it.
Conclusion
- Will I do this again?
Yes, I'll push my comfort zone and put my trust in the LB community more often. Maybe I'll buy some Lemon Haze or Stardawg next to really test my limits.
- Which was the best strain?
The Apple is definitely my preference but the cream is probably the stronger of the two.
Final Words
I'm glad I tried a couple of different flavours outside of my usual comfort zone. One I'll have again, one probably not so much. Sorry cream lovers. But either way at least I opened my world up to a new experience and that's made me feel more alive which can only be a positive. I'm also really stoned so it feels like a win all round.

Please do get involved in the discussion below. I always like to hear peoples thoughts. Thanks LB folk.
I was like a kid in a sweet shop on LB when I first joined. While that feeling hasn't ever quite left me I had really started to zone into my favourites and derivatives of late and had gotten into a bit of a loop.
More Sparkle
When it came to order time I was becoming less excited and as I'd seek out the same things on repeat it felt more mundane. It was a chore like popping to the supermarket. Now, in many ways, that's exactly how buying dried herbs online should feel like and I fully adore Little Biggy for making it so, but I just wanted to get a little bit of the sparkle back into our relationship.
Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit
I've probably mentioned previously once or twice that I quite like orange bud for example. So things like Green Cats Mimosa or Cannabis Cannibals Superboof were an obvious match for my tastes and I have repeatedly thrown my coins at those sorts of products. I've actually got a little Mimosa tucked away from Green Cat currently. Lovely stuff. I'm not faulting it for a moment.
Changing Behaviours
However, for my most recent order I fancied something different than I usually go for. But what? How do I change up the monotony of my own purchase behaviour loop?
Fear
While I wanted to roll the dice on something different I didn't want to end up stuck with weed I don't enjoy. That fear was holding me back.
Budget
I'm on a budget like I suspect many people here are so I can't just keep buying endless bits of weed until I find something that tickles my fancy, I have to smoke what I buy. Yes, not exactly a hardship, but it's still my reality and so whatever I do buy I'm making a commitment to.
Leap Of Faith
I decided to put my faith and trust in the Green Cat buyers ratings for my new choice as I was ordering a super-cheapie there anyway. Things like the Silver Bubble or the more recent Red Kush are incredibly well priced stash fillers.
This Is All Your Fault
I looked through the recent GC ratings and I picked from the things you folks rated the highest at the time. These are your 9.9's. So this introduction was basically just a very long way to say that if this all goes badly then I'm blaming you. It is everyone else's fault but mine.
My Order
I ended up ordering two flavour types I've had before but that I didn't really love. I went for Apple Fritter and Cream Soda. I really hoped the GC customers were onto something I'd missed. Both of these were at 9.9 ratings - albeit on fairly low volumes of reviews. I couldn't help but feel that I may be doing a stupid thing here but it was a new thing and I felt excited by it so I ran with it.
An Exercise In Trust
This is the cannabis buying equivalent of the trust exercise when you stand up then have to fall backwards with your eyes shut and rely upon someone catching you so you don't stack it into the floor. Will the GC customers have my back and catch me? Or am I hitting the deck? Let's find out.
Apple Fritter
https://littlebiggy.net/link/ZXYkvG
Let's start with the Apple Fritter. This is 65 bucks a quarter. I've had an apple strain before and I didn't like it. It had an unpleasant tang and a headiness I didn't get on with. Even as I write that sentence I am reviewing my own stupidity. There will be no need for anyone to point this out to me if it goes badly.
Grinding Apple
The Apple Fritter unsurprisingly has an apple smell immediately in the grinder. There's more complexity than that but it's fully earned at least half its name. Since I'm not an apple fan my first thought is to wonder what the hell I was thinking. However, we're all in and committed now so let's see what's what.
Smoking Apple
Lighting up I'm met with nice thick smoke and an initial musk note that reminds me of the old musky silver haze flavour I can't seem to find anywhere.
At first I thought it was going to be like a fruity nerds which has a similar backnote. But this is quickly overpowered with sour notes that remind me of an apple laced sour diesel. This sourness is packaged up inside some sweeter notes making it a really interesting and balanced smoke that remains tasty and varied throughout.
I Like It
I'm enjoying it much more than I expected. Which is good as I've bought a bit of it so I'll be chugging at it for a couple of days.
The hit has a heady few minutes to kick off which is then eased with a slow hitting but heavier chilled stone. So it's not manic or too cerebral. It does get your attention but is very easy to get along with.
Overall
Overall it's a lovely smoke and I thank the good people of Little Biggy for rating it highly and thus aiming me at it for purchase.
Your Reviews Help
If you ever wonder if your buyer reviews have an impact then they do and I hope this makes you feel better about taking the time to do them. Apple Fritter reviewers - I thank you.
But What About The Creamy One?
It's 1-0 to the GC reviewers so far. Will they bang in the winner? I've had cream strains a few times and I don't fully understand them. I don't dislike them the way I dislike Stardawg or Lemon Haze but I generally don't seem to get along with them.
Generally they've seemed to me to be a way to dilute a nicer flavour that was trying to get out. Again I don't need anyone to point out my own stupidity for ordering something I might not like but so far it's actually worked out great.
Cream Soda

All the evidence would suggest you are.
Thanks man, your comment is appreciated. I put a fair effort in writing these up so honestly I appreciate it.

Shame Biggy doesn't show views, cos I guarantee you loads of Biggas read your posts Roo :D
Tastiest Apple strain I've had has actually been from Capital Steez, the White Apple Tartz. I almost cant bring myself to finish it, just love cracking that jar open and giving it a big sniff, smells sooooo good!

Thanks man. It'd be interesting to know the stats.
I've looked at Capital before - they're the US based vendor aren't they? Looks like nice stuff but I've never imported before. Have only used UK vendors.

Yeah they're US based, and it was a one off really with the prices at the time, and had a mate willing to split it, but very nice stuff. Hopefully they get someone based in the UK to import and sell from the UK, but its unlikely I guess.
I've thought about it a few times where there have been low cost US or Thai vendors but never seen it through as I see some people importing run into complications.
Great read BigRoo that apple fritters has me tempted. It is on my list, maybe have to do a fruit bowl order one month and just get different fruit flavours.
I used the reviews to do a tour of vendors I have missed. I basically looked for any vendor that I hadn't used who had 9.7 or above, had been here for a couple of years, and was selling something I was buying.
I still use my main vendors for most orders but there are now a few more on my tried, tested and approved list and still a few I plan on trying out in the future.
💚

Thanks mate. The Apple is lovely. I steamed through my bit.
I've become pretty averse to trying new vendors - especially newly established vendors. It's a little unfair as some of them go on to be brilliant and it must be tough getting some traction here.
I like the fruit bowl idea. There's loads of strains that'll fit that.

Aye. It's a lovely bit. I went through mine pretty quickly. I'm still not a massive fan of the cream though.
A lot of the opening salvo resonates (kid in sweet shop etc). In terms of why i tend to gravitate towards certain sellers (ive had 3 main ones and another 2/3 that i use occasionally), i’m not 100% the same. Obviously budget is relevant, but the biggest thing for me is stealth. It could be an absolute nightmare for me if stealth isnt great, so once ive taken the plunge and confirmed a seller isnt sending packages that stink, i tend to stick with them.
I’m less bothered by trying something i end up not liking. Ive had a few that havent been for me, but in, god what must be well over 100 strains tried off of lb, ive only ever had 1 that was really bad. The irony being that it came from a smaller, potentially niche vendor, and absolutely everyones reviews on the same product absolutely raved about it. I thought it was basically unsmokable and gave it to someone else. This was back in the day (probably 2021) where there wasnt much on biggy for less than $40 for a 3.5, so i didnt do it lightly!
Fortunately my go to vendors have generally got pretty extensive menus so that helps!

I too tend to use the same trusted vendors on repeat. Every so often a new one enters my list - usually off the back of an orange order. I've not had many bad bits from LB but it's not zero.
Agree about stealth - that's a non negotiable quality for a vendor. I'd never order twice from somewhere that stealth wasn't up to standard.

The other thing for me is if a seller has a particular strain i absolutely love. Hands down the nicest flower ive ever smoked was a gelato 45 a couple of years back so if that ever comes up i’ll often try the respective seller after trawling their reviews!
Theres one called frittlez, which literally smelt like a can of lilt being opened if i ever see that again…,,,,
Great review btw, should have said that first response!

I've not had or heard of frittlez I don't think. KIG grew some orangina a while back that was a fantastic orange bud. I've got some of their current strains to try out this weekend.
Thanks man.
Thanks man.
Ill take your word on flowers with much more legitimacy than anonymous reviews Roo. Another awesome review essay lol
Thanks man. In defence of the cream it is a nice bud but just not one for me. I can see why people like it without actually liking it myself. Whereas stuff like thin mint cookies are a total mystery to me. Apple was lovely though. I'd have that again.
Tempted by the apple, been on a real slutty smoking spree recently trying out vendors outside of my trusted 3 so need to get back to GC.
NGL the way you described the cream has me sold, the "gives you a bit of a cuddle" is exactly what im after at 2am and im still wired like a chipmunk on crack lol Red Kush was ok IMHO, for the price at least. I was a big fan of his zombie kush, that was class but Im a big kush guy.
Whats the next planned research and review?

Whats the next planned research and review?
Of the two I reckon the cream is stronger and probably the nicer stone. I'd still choose the apple as it's just lovely to smoke though.
I've no idea what is next. I wrote a piece up the other week about my old raving days and a legendary spliff name from that era that's not referenced anywhere online. I might tidy that up if it's interesting when I read it back and post it as a topic. I've also got some bits from KIG that might be interesting to write up - and another GC order on the way (I hope).

Chasing bloomingcorns. Nonsense. Haberdashery. Britscotti b.
One part of that made sense.
One part of that made sense.
Try a punt on Radar Breeders Britcscotti. The cheeky cheap 7g option. Id love to hear your muses.
Thanks man. I'll have a look. I was going to get the RB blue cheese recently but they ran out before I got an order in. Generally they have some decent bits though.
Being a savage savant, a severe svengali of the sativa, a participator of the pukka. Have you tried the best value weed on the bluniverse?
Loved the review of the strains. I'm in the same boat of "Stick with what you know and trust" kind of attitude which stops me from trying new strains and vendors.
I'm currently in a loop with Radar Breeder and TheHashCollective simply because they have strains I have tried before and can trust the quality. Always got some Stardawg from RB as my "safe" strain and if THC got a strain that doesn't require me to dig through multiple websites to find out if the effects are for me, then i'll give a new strain a try.
Posts like these get my hopes up to try new strains and vendors again.

Thanks for your kind words man. Honestly means a lot. I think it's easy to get stuck in a purchase loop. Supermarkets move all their stuff around just to shake up our buying patterns. We are creatures of habit.
RB & THC are both solid vendors. Maybe roll the dice on their top ratings or a favoured review or something. Let me know how you get on.
Oddly, after writing this my next order was decided in seconds as there was a couple of bits I fancied straight away so it's felt like a good exercise.

I got a couple of cuts from cali some mad ones, going to try these out and see what comes of it
I read cuts as bits as I hadn't fully woken up this morning when I replied. I'd love to have my own grow. I've not got the space and it'd be a poor location anyway. What are the strains you have? I'm mostly asking - are there any orange ones?!
I got the list at the spot I can’t remember off top of my head some weird names

Its hard to imagine better budget weed than Green Cat pump out on repeat.
Delivery is usually fast and generally I'm looking at the buds in my grinder two days after ordering. Stealth is spot on and the buds arrive in perfect condition.
The three strains I've just picked up are great examples of the bang you get for your buck at GC.
Let's start with the Purple Mazar
This is a bargain $55 QTR / $105 Half oz
https://littlebiggy.net/link/Ug0GEM
Mazar is half of one of my favourite strains - Skywalker - so we're halfway there before starting.
Firstly it must be noted that this is the prettiest weed I've had in a long time. It's actually purple. In the grinder you get a beautiful mixture of the outer purple and inner green leaving a grind of highlighted purple hues with an old school smell. The pre-smoke appeal alone makes me glad to have bought it and it's the reason I decided to start writing.
To smoke it's like a musty kush. I meant that in a more positive way than it sounds. It's got the Mazar twang. An odd high note that laces the overall Afghanish taste much like it does to the main blueberry flavour in my favoured Skywalker. It's like a tinge of stale red wine. Is this making it sound better or worse? I like it, I'm just struggling to describe it.
The stone is pretty chilled. It's a lovely essy smoke and definitely amongst the best value bits I've had on LB.
Mcflurry is next.
This is $60 QTR / $115 Half oz
https://littlebiggy.net/link/bpau6d
I'm going through these in price order. This came as two buds, one weighed over 5 grams - one of the biggest buds I've had in ages. As expected from the name it's a sweetshop candy flavour with a pretty strong kush style stone to boot.
This is what I often refer to as an 'easy' stone. As in it gently arrives as you're smoking and doesn't demand much from you. It tends to be at the relaxed and euphoric end of the high spectrum. That's not to say it's weak, it's not, but it is easy to smoke. I can see why so many popular strains fit this subset like Runtz or gelato.
That's the Mcflurry.
For five bucks more than the purple you get more flavour and a stronger hit but it's not as pretty. It's a flavour you've had in a hundred other strains but there's a reason it's so popular.
Zowah
This is $65 QTR / $120 Half oz
https://littlebiggy.net/link/2f8E2P
Mmmmm.... Zowahh. Even in the grinder you know you're in for a treat.
This is an absolutely delicious smoke. Much like the Mcflurry it's a sweetshop flavour but so much more so. This has thick sweetly gassy clouds of smoke and a full flavour exhale. It tastes devine this stuff.
It's heritage includes zkittles and sour diesel which is evident in the mixed flavour profile as it's sweetly sour and gassy all at once.
The stone is both an early chilled buzz with a follow up sedative hit that keeps rolling for a while.
So this is easily the best smoke of the three. The extra five bucks again buys you an upgrade.
The Zowah is a really lovely smoke and a perfect mix of flavours (although no orange).
So what does all this prove?
You pay more, you get better weed. To be honest I didn't expect it to work out like this. I wanted to show the opposite of this. Many times I've ordered a few bits from GC it's turned out to be one of the cheaper bits that was the best. That was what I expected to write up when I started this. It was supposed to be a bombshell piece but really it's blown up in my face.
I guess life is like a box of cannabis. You never know what you're going to get.

Another great post Roo, love how this one got away from you lol
GC is among my most trusted vendors and the range he has between great budget and pricier A grade provides a fantastic menu with something for everyone IMHO.
On GC's top budget cant ignore the Gold Seal Squidgey and the Cookie Dawg. Always great value for the money.
Ive never been a fan of Skywalker, always feels like all THC and no terpenes to me. But I was on the fence on the Mazar and despite my feelings on OG Sky I always appreciate your opinion so will deffo grab a half of it now thanks Roo!
I love how I like a lot of flowers descended from the strains I dont particularly like so hoping the Mazar is one of them.
Do me a favour please Roo if you go on a Lemon binge let me know your picks for me to try out. Big lemon lover lol

Thanks man. Yeah I thought it'd work out differently. Can't win them all.i guess!
Aye, you don't go far wrong with GC. The squidgy black is a lovely nostalgia smoke. I'd been buying the LA Mousse (US version) for a while though as I like that as a basic hash.
I'm pretty unlikely to dive down a lemon haze rabbit hole. I used to like the lemon but locally it was the default for so many years I went off it. I'd have to be really significantly curious to order some lemon.

Honestly there is nowhere I would ever read up a review that big, except for big roo. Literary genius brother you must be a journo or something. Either way always a pleasure and always insightful so thank you Roo.

Thanks man. I really appreciate your kind words. I enjoy the challenge of trying to explain a smell, a taste and a feeling. I also feel that the overall cannabis experience is more than just the sum of these component parts so I like to explore it and see if I can describe the overall experience and convey my own excitement about it. I'm always happy to hear that it resonates with some readers here on LB and that I'm not alone in my thoughts.
For the record though I'm definitely not a journalist. I'll settle for a 'something'.

Why I’m I so drawn to that stale red wine 😂
Tidy write up mate, gonna grab me some purps.
How would you say they stack up against the staples of the skywalker and silver bubble or cookie dawg as that’s the cheapest iirc?
Shout out to green cat too, never had a shit bit from them, been rapid in delivery too.

The Skywalker is (apart from one batch) a lovely example and just how it's meant to be. The silver bubble is fantastic value as you get a lot of old school flavour at a bargain price. So you've picked possibly two of the best strains at those prices to compare to. I liked the cookie dawg I had too.
The Mcflurry certainly stacks up. I was probably a wee bit unkind as it's such a typical flavour now but it's a nice smoke. The purple has more of an old style taste that I'm still struggling to describe. It's not muted but it's not as full on. If you buy some see if you can better describe the taste. It's really distinct and recognisable from Skywalker.
The Zowah is bloody lovely.
Thanks man.

Always worth a read. GC for consistency, quality, menu variation and stealth as a total package isn't topped by many
Thanks man. Aye, GC have the full package are on a fairly short list of vendors I routinely use.
Rightly so Roo, hoping I can get on this zowaah while its there but always something on the menu for all budgets, and perfect mix of UK and import for me. Enjoy the wares!
This topic was from a while back. The zowahh isn't available I don't think. There's a lot to choose from at 65 bucks a quarter though. Ozk or Mimosa (if you like orange) are both lovely.
Nice work BigRoo. Always a pleasure to read your reports. Love how descriptive you are with the flavours. Don't suppose you used to be a wine taster?
BIgRoo, frankly sir, I hugely enjoyed the last review, but im a bit concerned about whether your neck returned after the transmutation.
A concerned reader.

Hehehe - I'd forgotten about that one - it was the sweet retreat wasn't it? Was lovely stuff. I am back to vaguely human shaped. Hopefully.
Thanks man, I've not written a weed review in a while. I probably should add a new one.

I Made Cookies With Vaped Weed

I Made Cookies With Vaped Weed
Is This a Thing?
I don't know if this is a common thing or not but I've decided to make vaped weed cookies.
My Vaped Weed
The weed that's been through my vape has had about 6 mins of vape time. Usually around 180c-200c. I don't vape much and when I do I'm still a flavour chaser so don't vape it that long - I guess. I've been stockpiling it for a short while so there's a wide mixture of bits in there. I weighed it up at a very handy and familiar number of 3.5g of browny coloured strands and dust.
The Theory
So the theory is that locked away in my vaped weed is THC that I've paid for but not enjoyed yet. And that I shall be able to extract it using nothing but heat and margarine. That's the science here.
Preparation
Yes. Preparation. You need more of this than I did. I wrote the steps below on the fly then wrote this introduction afterwards. I guess it's a very Tarantino way to deliver a topic but it will make sense if you read through.
Firstly, you probably want to make sure you actually have enough cookie mixture before you start. More on that later. Also required are a cheesecloth or other strainer, a pan, a baking tray, greaseproof paper, vaped weed, and an oven which needs preheating to 190c or whatever your cookie mix packet tells you to. And some margarine or butter.
Step 1
I melted a couple of spoons of margarine in a stainless steel pan until it was hot but not bubbling. A strong start.
Step 2
Then I chucked the vaped weed in. I kept it hot but removed it from the heat if it bubbled. Then put it back on the heat. Over and over. I did that until I got bored. Probably just a few minutes. I stirred it a bit too.
I figure, and I'm happy to be corrected, that the hot oil in the marg will likely mop up THC and other compounds quite rapidly. But please chime in if you know the science around this.
Step 3
Then I let it cool off slightly as I think boiling margarine will probably be quite hot to touch. This is a safety step. If you do happen to burn yourself doing this then maybe cookery ain't for you. Don't blame me. We are all adults here.
Step 4
I ordered cheesecloth from eBay. To be fair I did this in advance. If you wait until step 4 before doing this it probably won't go so well. If you don't have cheese cloth then use what you do have like a sieve or put pin holes in tinfoil. I'll write an introduction so this is less of a surprise.
The cheesecloth actually works well and I got most the liquid margarine, which is now a nice dark colour, squeezed out of by twisting it and squishing it with my fingers. I also got loads on my hands and lots of other places. It's a messy process. At least for me.
Step 5
Now it's time to mix the (cooled) margarine with the cookie mix. At this point I hit a wee snag. I don't have enough cookie mix. I'll definitely add a paragraph at the beginning of this about what you need to prepare - or what I should have prepared.
The mixture is now brown liquidy stuff. No chance of making cookies from it. It has not gone well. In the cupboard I do have a brownie mix so I added this to rescue this project and bulk it out into a dough.
You'll know when you have the consistency right as it'll be like sticky dry breadcrumbs. Once it's like that you can grab some in your hands and roll it into a ball of dough in your palms. I have a mixture of brownies and cookies. Brookies.
Step 6
I took my two brookie dough balls and popped them onto greaseproof paper on a baking tray. The oven was another thing I'd prepared in advance by switching it on. It is becoming clear that I shall never have my own cooking channel. The brookies went into the oven for 8 minutes. They probably needed a minute less or less heat.
Step 7
You need to remove them from the oven. Again, anyone who needs to be informed of this should probably stick to deliveroo for meals. Don't try eating hot cookies off a baking tray with your head in a 190 degrees oven folks. Oh... I probably should have mentioned the temperature earlier. I'll definitely add all this in. I didn't choose the temperature specifically though. I'm sure the packet probably has better instructions than me so follow most of that.
Anyway, remove them from the oven and then let them settle. If you mess with cookies straight out the oven they tend to disintegrate. Once cooled a bit they will solidify into biscuits.
Step 8
I have two vaped weed brookies. Now I've got to eat one. I've no idea if it's going to blow my head off or just be a bad tasting biscuit. Maybe both. But we won't know until later.
Let's See If This Was A Good Idea
It's actually a tasty biscuit. Either the vaped taste is covered or just not massive. No terrible aftertaste either. It's not like a brownie or a cookie and more like a cheap chocolate biscuit. It's how you'd expect a biscuit to taste if nesquick made them. At least it's edible. Now all I can do is wait. I'll be back in a bit and hope that it's not just to tell you to ignore the previous 8 steps.
Nothing Yet But My Weedy Sense Is Tingling
I'm impatient. I think that the brookie is starting to take effect as I've squinty eyes and a little cheeky grin forming for no reason at all. That could just be as I'm pleased with my own stupidity. Give me half an hour and I'll be back.
One Hour In
Okay. An hour is generally enough to judge and I've got a pretty solid heady buzz and a sedate effect from the brookies. It's not crazy strong but I'm definitely aware that I've had some edibles.
There's a part of me that feels my Grandma, who never lost her war-time habit to save, economise, and maximise everything, would feel proud of this moment. I have extracted some added value from something. This is a happy day. I also believe I'm getting incrementally stoned as time progresses too. I'll check back later. Although not on poor old Grandma. She's been buried for years now. The brookies would really need to be bloody powerful to change that.
90 mins in
Space. The final frontier. Nah - that's where I thought I might be headed but while there's no doubt proof of residual unused and perfectly decarbed THC in my vaped weed, it's not put me in a crazy place where I'm pacing back and forth in my garden only stopping to sigh.
My house really smells of weed. I'm used to making RSO edibles and vaping in the house but this process has really made my whole house smell like a cannabis factory. I'm definitely quite stoned too. It's a dopey hit. Clumsy and heady too. I need tea.
However I'm also eating the other one. You know the drill. Give me an hour and I'll be back. Unlike poor old Grandma. Perhaps she wouldn't be so proud of me picking on her for this topic. I don't usually find this subject so funny so there's undeniable happiness in this cost-cutting and money saving exercise to maximise your vaped weed into edibles. This is probably how she felt about saving lard from the Sunday roast.
Few Hours Later
I got a bit sidetracked. I had a few absolutely massive headrushes and was a bit stoned as I pottered around some basic tasks. Overall the vaped weed has done well. It's not as strong nor as long lasting as my favoured RSO but as a little bonus from existing vaped weed I'd say this was a winner. The buzz isn't as clean either and the best way I can describe it is as clumsier with unexpected headrushes.
It Works
So it works. I guess if you vape your weed til its charred then it probably won't. But for me, there's clearly enough goodness left in my vaped weed for a little bonus. Does anyone do this routinely?
Thanks
Thanks for reading my topic. I hope it was informative and if not I hope it was entertaining at least. Let me know if you've tried or will try the vaped weed cookies.

I made mahjoun with mine once. Just the contact high was enough I could feel it. Literally passed out on the kitchen floor 45 minutes after eating one.
Cut the next few a little smaller.

Hi, AVB is wonderful the lower the vape temperature, the better, or a lot of it works even at higher temperatures. I saw you used margarine lol. Some people say coconut oil or MTC oil is a better option.
Something like
Putting AVB into a jar with coconut oil using the double boil method for 1-4 hours works very well if you keep the lid on it limits smell. Use a thermometer to make sure you are within the perfect temperature range this is important.
If you are lazy like me, get a Milk Frother Handheld Mixer Wand. Makes mixing it much easier
When it’s time to strain, using a Finum Permanent Filter Brewing Basket is much less messy, and once the AVB is strained into the brewing basket, it’s ready to use. I bet you threw your strained material into the bin?

I already had margarine in my fridge and I'm used to making edibles using it as a base. I've had feco in MTC oil which worked really well. I did throw the material away. It'd been used twice so I figured it'd be done by then.
Next time you strain it, if you add it back to 200-300ml of hot milk for 2-3 mins and then strain again, you will see how much goes into the milk. If you drink it, make sure you have nothing to do for the next 12 hours.
Done similar in the past and like you found the buzz and effects quite light. However passed it on to a few of my non smoking/ex smoking buddies and they had a great ol giggly time. it's all about that tolerance level at the end of the day.
I do have a fairly high tolerance as I'm used to doing RSO cookies and have been smoking for years. It was an interesting experiment though.
I did used to dry vape bud roo but all my devices are defunct. I tend to make cinnamon, nutmeg and hash flapjacks. You can make them with ground up bud too, as the cooking process is set up to clone the decarb process, eliminating that step. ABV is super worth working with. Definately a different specrum high.
Always enjoys your muses brother. They brighten my day.

Thanks man. My favourite edibles are with RSO. Or a mix of rso and d9. My house definitely smells less cooking those and it's still a full / wide spectrum high.
Great read as always BigRoo, I am expecting your cookbook to be released in time for Christmas.
All of my AVB goes in to making FECO but I have been squishing most of my bud lately so I am building a nice collection of rosin pucks up for a future project.
Do you use the glass mouthpiece and dosing cap technique with the xmax. A fellow bigga put me on to it and it really does improve it massively.

Thanks man. Free binder with part one!
I've got the dosing cap but the mouthpiece is ceramic I think.
Do you have the proper press or have you adapted something?

Definitely worth buying the glass mouthpiece mate, if you get it just dispose of the fitted screen and use the dosing cap as the chamber, it keeps clean easier and the taste and vapour is massively improved.
I use the water adapter on it for hash through the bong, and I got the rocket stem for rosin.
I got myself a proper press as I wanted good temperature control and some consistency to the results.

I'll check this out mate. The dosing caps are great though. Makes it really simple to use and clean. I've only got one - I should buy a set. Maybe I'll treat my vape on payday.
Great read!
I'm encountering the same scenario myself as a newly transformed volcano user - there's just so much potential waste from the AVB but saving it has led to me now having ~30g in a jar and idk what to do with it
I suspect the "foggy high" was a result of already vaping most of the goodness out of the weed, leaving you with bud containing little THC but high in CBN. My thoughts were that these would be optimum for natural sleeping pills
Opting for gummies as they seem more shelf stable but also considering tinctures as they can be made way more concentrated. Will report back once I bite the bullet and actually go through with it haha

The high was different for sure. It didn't make me that sleepy - although nothing really does. It'd be interesting to run a test on the vaped weed to see what it did contain.
Apologies in advance if my black mark wrecks your posts vis but I’ve done this loads so thought I’d pass on tips.
6 mins total vape time is that for all of it combined? A vape in my mighty lasts a minute max if I’m sipping it. Ball vape seconds 😂
Mine is a very pale brown mostly not dark.
I’d use 7g-28g of vaped herb per block of butter. Clarified if I can be bothered.
I’d water cure / rinse the avb using cheese clothes and water. Till the water is not brown and stinking anymore..
Drain and the steep in butter for as long as I can be bothered, sometimes hours on low heat 😂
Coo in fridge and then get rid of any water residue at bottom when set.

Buy the butter already clarified is easier or just use coconut oil no residue when set.
I have also found that less is always better unless you plan on eating the whole block of butter 😂😂

I have an x-max vape. Much smaller than the mighty. It has timed sessions and it's set on 6min. It takes about a minute warming up til it vapes properly. I'd probably get a mighty if I was upgrading but currently I don't vape enough.
Aaaahhhhh the 360 cycle 😇😇 haven't heard of this for years. I thought it was a bit of a forgotten craft!
There was a good few years i lived by this religiously! The simpler times I call them. For a while I was heavy into cannabis activism, and one of my associates through this put me onto it and swore by it. I don't actually remember why I stopped.
I will say i didnt vape my buds for as long as 6 mins though? So maybe try a lighter smoke on some more buds? And personally I only make edibles with a minimum of 7g 😅 but obviously this presents the problem of either double the smoking or a longer time in between baking?
Light and guidance ✌🏻💚

My vape is an x-max. It seems rather underpowered compared to the mighty. It takes about a minute to heat up properly. It's much cheaper than the mighty as well though.
Thanks man.
Thanks man.
I’ve read that it is mostly CBC that remains after vaping. I used to save my vaped weed (had jam jars full of it), and make banana bread every once in a while with a good helping of vaped bud. It just used to send me into a deep sleep, and I’d wake up with the worst weed hangover known to man. So I stopped, it wasn’t worth the faff in the end.
The idea of the extraction was to avoid eating the bud and getting the hangover. Which to be fair does seem to have worked. I was alright this morning. The buzz was different to the edibles I make usually so perhaps what you read is correct though. I'd be interested to get a sample tested to see what was left in it.
I have 10ML of D9 For you make some cookies with this and let them know the feedback thanks. PM us!

The Pink Runtz That Bamboozled Me

The Pink Runtz That Bamboozled Me
Loving The Pink
I'm loving the Pink Runtz I have at the moment but I can't quite place the flavour. As I'm an old pothead, usually when I smoke a particular strain, I can taste the component parts. These strains have grown up with me so I've usually been through the component flavours over the years. Basically, most new strains - I used to know their Granddads.
I'm rarely surprised if I Google the strain lineage as it usually confirms what my taste buds already suspected. As I'm sure we are all aware, I particularly like doing these write ups by following that exact flavour journey.
Runtz Got Me
This Runtz has bamboozled me, although it's given me the chance to use the word bamboozle in a sentence. Twice now in fact. I might add it into the title for the hat trick. From your perspective this has probably already happened and was in fact amongst the first words that you read but I usually write the title last as I don't know what I've said until the end. I'm pretty excited with this opportunity to use a fancy word. I'm running with it. Where was I...
Order and Delivery
The Pink Runtz in question is from The Wizard Of Oz. It really must be noted how bloody quick these guys work. Comms, stealth, speed, delivery - these guys have one of the slickest operations on LB. This is $120 on the half oz with free postage, although I ordered a mix n match deal. But that's a great price for this quality.
I ordered about 10pm. Order was marked as processed and sent later that night. Arrived, not the next day (obviously as it'd only be picked up by postie then) but the day after. Every order I've had from Twoz has been incredibly fast so I'd just like to flag the solid service. That must take effort and it is appreciated.
Back to the Runtz
It's a really lovely smoke with a flavour that I'm really enjoying and it tastes very familiar but I can't quite place it. I shall however try to explain.
The Runtz has a main flavour layer that's exactly what you expect. It's a sweetshop strain and has many of the generic traits you'd expect of this type of weed. But it's got another layer of deliciousness and it's this that I'm struggling to identify.
Genetics
The internet says it's likely a cross between Zkittles and Gelato as Pink Runtz is simply a pheno of Runtz that turned out a wee bit pinker. There's other suggestions that Pink Panties was included in the mix. But it's of course impossible to know which seeds the grower got and what the real genes I'm experiencing are.
However there's certainly a flavour layer that easily agrees with the Z x G cross. A sweetshop and ice cream flavour mixed together would explain the main layer. Plus there's something else. And it's the something else that I'm struggling to place so easily.
Grinding
In the grinder I'd guess at a sherbet or slurricane from the smell. It's a sickly sweet underlying scent I feel I know. Except it's not either of those. The sunset sherbet does have Pink Panties in the lineage though so perhaps this variant includes those genes and that's the simple answer to the mystery. But I'm not sure by any means.
Smoking
It's got a particular sort of thick and smooth sweet vanilla musk under the sweetshop flavour which gives a super satisfying inhale. Blue Nerds when grown well has a similar duality where it's blue tasting but it carries a backnote with a little silvery musk which delivers a wide ranging taste mixture. This is like that blend but with all the flavour parts replaced with sweetshop flavouring.
Unique Taste
Perhaps this Pink Runtz has the rare quality of actually being a unique taste marker that I'll refer to in future. I've had other Runtz strains which tended to tick the more expected sweetshop flavour box of a Zkittles or Gelato descendant but that weren't the full wide band of flavouring that Pinkie here is delivering.
Stone
It's an easily delivered stone that ultimately does get you blazed but leaves you still capable of achieving basic human tasks. Basically a nice balanced feeling where there's enough head stone to be thoughtful but not enough to be panicky and there's enough body buzz to be chilled without feeling like someone has nailed your feet to the floor.
And it's all gently delivered as you smoke so you don't have a sudden bang of a stone like with some of my favoured strains that are like being shot by a thc shotgun ten minutes after you stub.
What Are Your Thoughts?
Have you had the Pink Runtz? How was your bit? I'd be curious to know.
Thanks for Reading
As always thanks for taking time out of your day to read through my rambling. I hope it was informative and if not I hope it was entertaining in some way.
I appreciate the votes and comments if you like this type of content. Let me know your thoughts on Pinkie. I have a Rainbow Zkittles currently too so I might write that up later.
Thanks people.
I'm loving the Pink Runtz I have at the moment but I can't quite place the flavour. As I'm an old pothead, usually when I smoke a particular strain, I can taste the component parts. These strains have grown up with me so I've usually been through the component flavours over the years. Basically, most new strains - I used to know their Granddads.
I'm rarely surprised if I Google the strain lineage as it usually confirms what my taste buds already suspected. As I'm sure we are all aware, I particularly like doing these write ups by following that exact flavour journey.
Runtz Got Me
This Runtz has bamboozled me, although it's given me the chance to use the word bamboozle in a sentence. Twice now in fact. I might add it into the title for the hat trick. From your perspective this has probably already happened and was in fact amongst the first words that you read but I usually write the title last as I don't know what I've said until the end. I'm pretty excited with this opportunity to use a fancy word. I'm running with it. Where was I...

Not going to lie BigRoo sometimes i want to send you strains just to see a write up like these on them 🤣
I love stopping to read your bits n pieces, always brings a sense of comfort and a smile, with all the info a weed nerd like me could want. Appreciate you dude 🙏

Thanks man. I appreciate your kind comment. I find writing up my experience an interesting process to go through when I get bits in that excite me for one reason or another. I always hope I'm adding something to LB with these pieces and that as we all go through our own little processes, rituals, comparisons etc so that other people will relate to it.
Always a great read BigRoo, and might I say in depth.
Appreciate your custom and support as always BigRoo, and hopefully many more years to come 😊
Lets get bamboozled!

Thanks twoz. The Pink Runtz was much more interesting than I expected. I had fun thinking it through and doing the write up.
Their delivery times are brilliant, never had any messing around from them. Only ever ordered the edibles and d9, I do keep looking at their bud menu though, some nice looking bits on there.
They had some white widow a while back that was lovely too at the same price. I bought quite a bit of it. I've had a few really lovely bits from Twoz. I've been getting RSO here too as it's usually so strong. In fact now I've mentioned it I'll do some cookies tonight. I prefer the full spectrum spaced-out vibe from RSO edibles although overdoing it can be a wee bit heady. And yeah man the order process is on fire.
I'm going to have to give them a go soon I think for flower. I tend to try the home grown stuff when it pops up and have some nice OG Kush from MKK2020 at the moment and some BSS from Franz, and waiting on an order of Super Buff Cherries (super boof cross for you there BigRoo) as I've been wanting to try Trop Cherries for a while and this is the closest I've seen (TGT). Truly feel like a kid in a sweet shop with the choice on here, beats the old days of waiting hours for a bag of whatever.
Ah - I've heard good things about Franz BSS. The druids do some fantastic small style grows if you've not tried them. I missed out last time as it crossed when I'd just bought a load of Mimosa Punch. I'd not seen the Super Buff Cherries so might check that out - there's too many options and too few coins sometimes for sure! .

Super Silver Haze from LazyDaze

Super Silver Haze from LazyDaze
I thought about making the whole topic rhyme like the title but luckily it was just a phase. Now, a point I'd like to raise, about LazyDaze, is the parcel was wrapped up in many ways, so opening it felt like navigating a maze. At least the postman couldn't smell haze. Fine, I'll stop (and end this craze). Before you begin to feel unneeded malaise. Let's get onto the Super Silver Haze as it's what we're all actually here to appraise.
Phew. Glad That's Over. We Probably All Are.
Stealth was really good. It's best never to detail this in reviews but the maze part above is a fair description - you can trust me on that - people have cracked safes more easily - but yes rhyming was not needed. I got carried away because I was excited.
The vendor is super friendly and replies to comms. It's a small operation with a few delicious looking strains on offer and both a high rating and a seemingly elite following of well known faces on LB.
A Haze I Like
Although I'm mostly haze averse there are a few that tick my boxes and super silver haze is on that very short list.
A Classic
Much like with pop music, you can never tell at the time which strains will go on to be the classics in years to come. Super Silver Haze, I guess, is like the Rick Astley of strains in that respect as it seems we're never gonna give it up. I wonder which current strain will be the Taylor Swift equivalent that we can't shake off in the year 2055? Probably gelato.
Grinding
In the grinder it reminds me of silver bubble as I think the northern lights genes immediately shine through. It's also got a clear citrus smell in there.
Smoking
Lighting up it's definitely an old school flavour with a very clean, slightly musky backnote that edges toward a lemon. In some ways it's not actually the full musk silver flavour I have been looking for and in another way it's cleaner and probably much nicer.
Head High
The haze buzz is there but it's nice and clean without the dizzying cerebral head trauma that some hazes deliver. It's pleasantly strong and leads to a little face sweat. It is a head high but not an unbalanced one. I feel thoughtful but not panicking because I need to pop to the supermarket. Although I'm still stoned enough to forget the main thing I went in for and buy munchies instead.
Overall
So overall, while it's not the exact flavour that I was looking for, it is absolutely lovely to smoke and probably a better example of the strain than the one I would like to find.
The Silver I Seek
There was a silver / super silver haze sold round here years ago with a deep musky backnote that I found irresistible. It's that musk that I usually describe as the silver taste. It's not unlike the lynx musk deodorant of the 90s - although don't try smoking that. Does this sound familiar to some of you old school pot heads out there? Let me know.
Silver Lining
This variant has a hint of that musk but the taste is much fresher, more like a citrusy northern lights. I don't want to say lemon as it's not a lemon haze and I don't want you to dismiss it as such but it's that end of citrus in flavour note.
It's not dissimilar to silver bubble in many ways. The silver lining is there, often on the exhale, but not as pronounced as the old strain I'd like to rediscover - which may be more typical of a silver instead of a super silver. The terms were largely interchangable locally so it's hard to know which strain I was really getting.
Lovely Haze
It is however a fantastic example of an old school haze, grown and cured perfectly, that delivers a nicely balanced flavour and high and is a joy to smoke. It had an unfortunate poetic side effect but if you don't mind a few desperately crowbarred rhymes you'll be good with this.
Thanks
A special thanks to anyone who made it this far and forgave the early rhyming section. Love you guys. I appreciate you staying with me. I hope that it was informative and if not I hope it was entertaining in some way. Let me know if you remember the musk I described.

Hey Budd sorry it took me time to respond to your post, been a bit occupied!
I see there’s a poet in you budd, either that or you do a bit of rap in your spare time 😂. It rhymes nicely!!
Thankyou for a lovey description on the super silver haze.
I feel like it’s a forgotton strain nowaways as people are mad about so called “Cali weed”
You give a vivid picture of why super silver haze still bangs, and it’s clear you got an appreciation like I do towards it ❤️.
I know the musky earthy taste you’re talking about budd, that lingers in your mouth after exhaling .
I don’t if it was because of this particular seed brand or the way it was grown, but the musk did play a big part in the overall taste and making the strain stand out because of it.
Thankyou again budd it was a joy to read ❤️

I think the 'cali' strains have narrowed the genes we pick from. It drives us down a samey route where every bud needs to be solid enough to bang nails in with and taste like something from a pick n mix sweet bag. So while we have more strains than ever, I swear it's from a narrower genetic spread. There's probably commercial growing reasons behind lots of it. I know some strains don't yield much and some are more likely to rot so I guess big growers bank on a cash crop that is easy to grow. Probably hence so much skittles and gelato.
But, returning to my original point, I fully believe that some lovely old genes sit outside that and don't get the love they deserve. I've had white widow that on paper wasn't mentally strong but it blew my head off as I think I'd just not had those genes for so long. And the green crack (skunk 1 x skunk 1) was similar. It hit like a new strain lthough tasted like skunk.
I'm guessing the more musky version of silver is either a particular pheno that happened to be cloned and mass produced in that era. I expect yours is the truer / cleaner silver you'd have got from Dam back in the day. You can really taste the component strains much like a well grown silver bubble. Also it hit as a haze but not in the horrible way some haze strains feel to me now. I can't stand lemon haze for example. Yours felt much more balanced and delivered a head high that was clean and nice with some energy.
So we're definitely lost some pieces from the past and it's good that you and a handful of vendors do keep it alive. I was excited recently reviewing the super Boof as it's a modern strain but they've pulled some very old genes into that - and it's a recent cup winner. The modern generation, when offered up these old flavours, actually like them.
Thanks man. Keep up the good stuff.

I think I see what you mean,
All the Cali strains derives from the parents of an old school strain, and there is a standard, that is required in order for it to quality as a Cali strain or a uk Cali strain. ! So we can narrow it down with the quality and the linage it's coming from!!
Hmmm youv got quite a bit of budd insight and history. That makes sense about why there was a musk taste remaining back in the days when the super silver haze was popular then. and not now as a small independent grower .
That dirt was part of the nostalgia; a feeling and now a memory- a taste of what once was!
It's nice that the new generation are still into old school strains, so as long as you can grow it with love and care give it the attention it deserves , it will still be a beautiful budd to smoke !!

That's my theory. Like many stoned thoughts though it might not be accurate. I'm definitely glad to see many of the old strains given new life in a modern grow though. Like fashion and music the future is often the past. Progression is more cylindrical than linear.
Hehehe... I'll never detail anyone's stealth but Professor Rubik would have scratched his head about where to start with that. It's most definitely not a complaint. That's probably top of the list of absolute must get right.things.

White Widow Just Landed

White Widow Just Landed
The past is the future:
Yes. I've gone down another nostalgic rabbit hole. Twoz had some of the White Widow and since I'd not seen it for years I simply couldn't resist.
When I were a lad...
I remember White Widow was the top of all the menus in Amsterdam on my third trip out there. That'd be around 1994 / 1995. Back then each visit would introduce me to a new cutting edge strain that we could only dream about in the UK. I can remember looking in wonder at the glistening white crystal coating on the Widow and seeing how it'd earned its name.
Genetics:
White Widow was created from two very old strains so we're diving into some of the original source code of cannabis genetics. This is a cross between a Brazilian Sativa (landrace) x South Indian Indica from over thirty years ago originally.
Purchase & Delivery
I grabbed a two strain deal from The Wizard of Oz here and bagged an extra gram on both quarters with the extended bank holiday offer. The other bit was the Blue Diesel which I've not tried yet but it smells fantastic.
It's also worth noting the speed at which Twoz operate at. Weed was delivered within 24 hours again. I imagine they put some effort in to be as quick as they are so it's worth flagging up the excellent service - not least as there's many folk on LB who find themselves with a level of unplanned urgency and love a speedy parcel.
Out the bag:
First of all it's been grown nicely but it is scrappier than the furry pebbles we're used to seeing from modern gelato style crosses with their large dense nugs. This is not necessarily a bad thing and some of the best tasting buds I've had have been a wee bit scrappy.
It's also a little sticky but grinds into a lovely fluffy texture ready for sprinkling and doesn't glue the grinder together. It's not damp, it's sticky and resinous.
How's it smell?
It smells amazing. It's like a very heady alcoholic fuel that hints towards diesel but with a less deeply sour / sweetshop undertone - although there is a old fruit note. Maybe like a gassy northern lights would be. It's a bit harder to describe than when I usually write these as it's not leaning on relatable ancestry that I can easily pick out. It smells like White Widow!
What's the taste like?
Upon lighting it up, a puff of the widowy goodness takes me back to the past faster than Doctor Who could. The flavour is less overstated than the smell but is joyously old school in taste and brings back memories. It's like a lightly sweet skunky taste.
I don't drink coffee anymore but I'm craving that mixed cappuccino (pre-latte era) and cannabis smell wafting into the streets from those early coffee shops in Dam.
The weed burns lovely and smokes nice and thick with smooth resiny clouds. I like it.
How strong is it?
The stone is moderate to begin with but with a hefty follow up oomph a short while later as the buzz kicks in. It's not a full sofa zombie and has a more energetic but cerebrally spacy high. Although thankfully it is more balanced than a crazy haze. So while it's old, it's no weakling and holds its own against newer varieties.
Verdict
I'm glad I bought it and I'm enjoying smoking it. It's unlike modern strains so its a bit of a the change from the norm. Arguably it doesn't quite stand up to the amount of rich flavour breeders have squeezed from modern weed but it's got a lovely old school taste and it's not completely outclassed by its younger relatives at all.
If you remember it from back in the day there's a good chance you'll like it again now.
If you don't remember it from back in the day here's a chance to experience something different that's not crossed with gelato. It'll probably be a whole new experience.
Thanks
As always thanks for reading my topic. I hope it's been informative and if not I hope it's been entertaining in some way at least.
Let me know in the comments if you've had the White Widow and what old school strains you would love to see available on LB?

If you don't remember it from back in the day here's a chance to experience something different that's not crossed with gelato. It'll probably be a whole new experience.
Thanks
As always thanks for reading my topic. I hope it's been informative and if not I hope it's been entertaining in some way at least.
Let me know in the comments if you've had the White Widow and what old school strains you would love to see available on LB?
As always, a great read BigRoo!
It was a great feeling reading your review, especially since it came as a surprise. The team and I are really glad you had an overall positive experience.
You're a great presence here at LB, always giving us something enjoyable to read when we’re lighting up.
As always, all the best and have a great evening BigRoo!

Thanks man. I was in two minds about buying the widow due to its age but I just couldn't resist trying it out. I wasn't sure how well it'd stand up to more modern strains. I'm genuinely glad I did though. It's all I've smoked since it arrived.
You guys are either naturally gifted parcel senders - like the Mozart of the postal world - or, as I suspect, you put continual effort into the logistical process. Every parcel from you so far has been sent quickly and arrived within 24 hours. People are very quick to rant when a package is late so efficient service should be shouted about too.

Good service paired with good quality products is what we strive for BigRoo.
We try our very best 😊 always

You're doing a fine job. I'll start on the blue diesel later today. I'm looking forward to that.
That not crossed with gelato comment gave me a good chuckle. Thanks for the read roo 😂👍
Thanks man. Honestly I smiled at that when I wrote it. I actually like a gelato cross but the widow was a reminder to me that some of the forgotten flavours are still interesting.
Just reading your ramblings takes me back and puts a big grin on my face, thank you.
I do like a bit of white widow, always a bit of a creeper I thought. Like yourself I first experienced it in the dam... it'd be about the same time too. It blew me away....growing up in the middle of nowhere I'd only heard rumours of this strain but it was now my new favorite!
I may have to purchase when the coin allows now I've read this.
Top job BigRoo 👏

This stuff definitely fits the creeper pattern. Much like my favoured Orange Bud I like it when it creeps up and batters you.
The gap between the Amsterdam weed and the UK weed was massive back then. In the coffee shops I'd watch as an English person walked in for first time, bought one of everything, got a quarter way through their first smoke and lulled into a spaced out borderline catatonic state that can only be described as English person on first day in Amsterdam. Obviously, I was that person once too. The difference in weed now is much less I expect so I guess that's a more a thing from our teenage era that people don't go through the same now.
Thanks man for your kind words.

🤣🤣🤣 yep we've all been there. I remember buying so much the first time....a bit like when I discovered LB....I had to stash it in my girlfriends bra ...brought nearly an oz back, weed & hash....I think I actually pooed a little going through customs! No problems though, straight through. Nothing quite like people watching in the dam, there is nowhere quite like it...or should I say like it was. A friend has just got back and he said it's died right down.. even the grasshopper...everyone's first time stop...is just a plain old coffee shop now. Alot less " coffee shops" than before...and they're only supposed to sell you 5g max. Still nice stuff around just a bit harder to find. Shame really
I'm gonna get a little bit of widow ...and the diesel..on the 3.5 deal...just waiting on my coin.

I'm glad to have experienced those days when I did and before everyone carried a camera device in their pockets too. I'd probably be a meme by now otherwise.
I've not been out there in over fifteen years now. I know they wanted to get away from it being the the hot spot for getting completely spangled. Hilariously they created an anti-waster advert which showed wasted English people falling into canals and stuff. It was meant a to put those people off going. Bookings went up!
I've not tried the diesel yet but based on my sniff test I don't think there'll be a problem. Reckon it'll be lovely.

Ditto BigRoo. I went out there for new years 1998, that was messy ... a story for another day. 2008 was the last time I went...smoking tobacco alternative everywhere and rooms with massively powerful extractor fans. Didn't enjoy it quite as much and never been back.
Ordered my nice bits from the wizard ...Happy days.
Have a splendid weekend sir💨💨

Maybe it's more like 19 years since I went. Around 2006. You could still smoke tobacco at that point.
Thanks man - enjoy your Twoz order. Let me know what you think.

Wizards landed this morning .. excellent service. Dived in the man shed , to have a quick sniff and that was it, 11am and I was on it...just couldn't resist once i'd smelt that sweet smell. Haven't had widow this good in a long while. Nice cure on the buds, not to dry but grinds nice. Smells and tastes spot on..really quite sweet in fact. Burns really clean. Hits like it should, nice heady high...one where you don't realize quite how stoned you are until you try to do something! That was me by 11.30...Nice.
Not tried the diesel yet...went to about an hour ago , ground up about a gram , paper and glass tip at the ready and proceeded to drop my grinder on the floor!! Ground weed everywhere ffs! I came in the house in disgust. It smells bloody lovely too... really smell the blueberry side of things. I'll try again tomorrow.

Glad you got on well with the widow. I've just lit one myself. I think it's a lovely smoke. As you say it's a creeper that sneaks up on you. I like that. It's one of my favourite characteristics of my favoured orange bud too although OB is less cerebral.
The blue diesel is decent. Hits pretty hard and has blue and sour notes. It's a lovely smoke. But it didn't inspire me to jump on LB and ramble about it to everyone like the widow did. It's quite possibly the better smoke. At least if you don't throw it on the floor!
We've all done that mate. I can remember years ago I couldn't get anything. I had one smoke left. My last bit. It was going to be a perfect last smoke. Everything was set out. Put the last of the weed in the grinder. Then I fumbled it while grinding like a dickhead. I saw it pop open in the air and the last of my freshly ground weed scattered and rained down into the carpet. Obviously I attempted to recover it but got all sorts of crap and plastic fibres with it. I've had magnetic grinders ever since.

Thanks for your kind words sir, I did contemplate getting on the floor...then I took one look at the man shed floor and just thought naaaarrrrggghh! I do have a magnetic grinder but it was whilst I was separating said parts that disaster struck!
I tried again yesterday and boy you're right, it hits pretty hard. I do like the taste...it tastes as good as the smells.
Thanks for the recommendations BigRoo. I'm gonna try and grab some more widow when I can

I'd avoid it on my shed floor too. It'd have all sorts of dust and crap in it. Although it'd probably end up tasting like an authentic 90s hash!
I've been thinking about topping up on the widow. GC have a load of new strains in though and some look pretty tasty. I fancy the gorilla butter. I don't like the original GG so it's an odd choice but my sixth sense tells me I'll like it. As always massive choice / limited funding.
Twoz have done well though as a new vendor. Really made a mark. I've had 3 orders, all decent quality and fast delivery.

Yes, definitely can't fault there service or there bud... I'll defo be going back.
See I like GG, it's one of those marmite flavours, you definitely know what it is straight from the off. I'd spotted the butter on GCs , I've had it a couple of times...last was from greenteam and it was very nice.Nice balance of original gg and peanut butter breath Gorilla cookies is another good one. They're quite heavy hitters but that's what I like. I reckon you'll enjoy it.
I'm afraid like you , my basket is bigger than my budget ....as usual

All the GG versions I've tried have been strong but at the expense of everything else. A lot of people rate it highly. I don't hate it like I do with stardawg but it's never had the taste for me. For some reason this bit appealed although I've not ordered anything yet.
I've looked at a few bargain options this month. Radar breeder has a cheapie mix bag, skuda has orange sherbet half ounce bars, and GC have the Skywalker shake. I've always been pretty curious how some of the cheapie bits pan out and my wallet would thank me.

Hazzar I'm not only one who hates stardawg... dare I say it's just too strong...I don't like having a weed hangover next day and that does that to me.
I've always liked the taste of all the GG's I've had over the years...a mate used to get some really nice Glue strain but I can't for the life of me remember what it was called.
I would recommend GCs Skywalker trim...I'm on it now! Full of little popcorn's and nice trim. I would say the only thing different to the bud is the smell. It tastes, smokes and hits like it should. If someone passed you a spliff of it you wouldn't know the difference imo. To be honest it's probably a bit strong for daytime but I'm not working today so why not. For $51 delivered , you will not be disappointed.

My mate has had every version of stardawg imaginable. Every time I've bought a bit I've skinned up the first one, smoked it, thought it was well alright and couldn't understand my own aversion to it. Then I have a second and it's just dead to me. Seems to taste awful and have little effect. I don't know why but I just don't get on with it. I'm also averse to lemon haze (had it too many times and it's too heady) and thin mint cookies (no idea what they were thinking there).
I've just ordered a couple of bits from the wizards as I was late to it and they're a solid bet to get it to me by the weekend.

How strange...total opposite to me...nothing else mongs me out like dawg. I'm don't smoke any hazey strains anymore because the lack of effect
Enjoy your new bits ...pretty sure the wizards will come through for the weekend. Have a good one

I once got some Widow in the early noughties that was one of those freak white out grows - dripping in trichomes, unbelievably good.
Couch lock so hard, we ordered pizza, from our upstairs flat, but were too mashed to go and get it when the doorbell rang.
Feel terrible for the delivery guy. And we got blacklisted from dominos.

Too mashed for pizza! That's really something man. At least you're still in the clear with Papa Johns. White widow tends to have a secondary kick which I really like.
Another of Roo's rambling reviews where he spends more time reminiscing about the past than talking about the weed itself.
Another excellent review, I always enjoy the backstory, I too am often on the hunt for the weed I smoked back in my youth, I seem to remember it hitting like a train and could get your evening ruined off of 1 big silver skin joint shared between 5 of us, though it was never a named strain and always came in a bag.
Could anyone on here think of a strain that's familiar to what I used to smoke as a teen? It definitely wasn't an indica, what was kicking around in the mid 2000's? We always heard rumours it was "AK-47" or White Widow as Roo is sampling here.

I do like a ramble! Thanks man, yeah a trip down nostalgia lane can be a great experience.
I'm not sure about your mystery strain. For a few years here we got cheap random unnamed skunk types, usually grown with little care and sold in a panic while not fully dried and cured. I doubt they were all the same strain.

Nice to read a lot if U got time but can U please show us actually how your White widow Looks like??? I had a blue cheese from the Oz and the quality was below what I expected for the price..I had a white widow it was actually white and that made me white and I would never forget that

Super Boof - Could It Be My New Favourite Orange Bud?

Super Boof - Could It Be My New Favourite Orange Bud?
What A Lovely Thing
I was sent some Super Boof and other bits to test from Cannabis Cannibals as they wanted my opinion on the orangeness of the boof before listing it. I'm really down with the concept of being an orange approver. Like I should have an orange stamp or something.
So I thought I'd write up my day and share it with you nice folk on LB as I was very excited by it all.
Packing and Delivery
Starting with the basics, all these buds were carefully sealed without squashing and were placed in sensible multilayered packaging. Everything arrived in perfect condition and was neatly print labelled. This was all spot on.
Super Boof
This weed is badly named. If it was named Super Dank Orange I'd likely have tried it already.
Why The Name?
I googled it as I had to know why. Apparently it was originally named Blockberry and was changed by a grower who found it amusing to call it Super Boof (with the meaning of low quality weed - not 'that' Boof - hence why it is ironically funny. Or was funny to them at least). Bloody stoners. I swear none of us can be trusted to take anything seriously.
The Promise of Orange
Immediately, in the grinder, the orange smell is teasing me. Even at this point I'd bet a pound against a penny that this is going to be a lovely orange bud.
And orange is exactly what is fully delivered in the smoke. Bloody hell it's a nice orange bud. It's got a rich dank complex deep orange note lined with citrus. It's not lemony citrus but a much deeper and a multi-layered, thick, fruit note with a deliciously orange inhale and more complex flavour as you breathe out that reminds me of sweet twangs of diesel.
True Orange Buzz
The strength is there too and delivered in true orange fashion. You get a relatively mild and intriguing buzz while smoking then a short while after the rest of it catches up with a much heavier hit.
Orange Fans
I honestly cannot imagine any orange fan ordering this and being disappointed in anything other than the name. I've just rolled a second to confirm my thoughts and I'm even more sure that this is a supremely nice orange bud. It may even be the orangest bud available on LB right now. Maybe.
Genetics
The Super Boof is a mixture of Black Cherry Punch and Tropicana Cookies. The latter is mildly orange as cookies tends to dominate the flavour in my experience. I've not had the black cherry so can't comment on how punchy it is. This cross though is distinctly orange.
Orange is Always a Winner
I note the Super Boof has won a few accolades including Leafly Strain of the Year 2024 so perhaps there are more orange flavours are on the way than I'd realised - not least because the word Boof doesn't make me think of something that smells like orange.
I guess I don't really care what costume the orange bud wears, I'm just glad to see the flavour sneak back into the mainstream
Conclusion
I'll be buying some Super Boof and actively seeking it out for the foreseeable future. This is the orange bud I've been looking for.
[Note - Since first writing this I have ordered some Super Boof from CC. Most of what they had left in fact. I fully put my money where my mouth is. I believe the bud is being restocked this weekend but prerolls are available - check the link. Message CC to secure your bit.]
Next We Have Tangerine Dream
After all that excitement comes the Tangerine Dream. This is a mixture of g13 haze, Nevilles Haze and Afghani so it doesn't have any actual orange bud genetics despite hinting at such with its name.
Arguably, everything we smoke is essentially derived from about 10 or 15 original landraces so pretty much everything is linked somewhere along the chain.
But, back to my point, the Super Boof is parentally linked to my hallowed orange bud but the Tangerine Dream isn't. By name alone this is difficult to tell but I assure you that it's true.
Haze Fans
If however you're a haze fan, particularly a g13 haze fan, then I suspect you'll absolutely, completely love this.
It is a citrusy and fruity taste and it is far better balanced than a pure g13 but it's that end of the flavour spectrum from its parents. It's also pretty strong in effect like a g13.
Head Haze
The effects are more typical of a haze than any orange bud too as it's head-hazy and hits fast. I know some creatives love this about haze. It's not a flighty buzz like a pure g13 where I'd feel like manically doing a hundred things at once for twenty eight seconds before hiding in a dark corner and hoping no one notices me. It's much more enjoyable than that but definitely a cerebral high.
Conclusion
So I guess that's my ultimate conclusion. It's a really nice, high-end, well balanced, haze. Much more user-friendly to smoke and flavourful than a lemon or a g13 but still at the hazey end of the smoking world.
It'd make more sense to have called it Tangerine Haze. Yes this is the second strain I've tried to rename in this topic. I make no promises about number three.
Finally the Pineapple Runtz
In the grinder I can smell the pineapple immediately and that's the taste delivered upon sparklng up too. It's less sourly complex than an orange bud which will likely mean some people will prefer it. It's a sweeter fruit note but still zesty and not so much of the weed-candy sweetshop flavouring the runtz name suggests.
The stone is easy going and is delivered gently while smoking then develops into a nicely balanced high that carries on lifting after you stub. It demands very little from you.
It's a really nice, enjoyable smoke. If you like real fruit flavours but don't put orange buds at the top of your list then this is likely a bit of you. It's just very easy to smoke. I don't feel the need to rename this one either.
So To Conclude
To wrap up what turned into a much more extensive piece than I'd intended to write - the Super Boof is a fantastic orange strain, the Tangerine Dream is more hazy and the Pineapple Runtz is an easy fruit stoner. It's also been a great day and I'm really quite stoned.
Thanks

Have you tried the Super Boof? Orange fans - I swear you'll love it. If not let me know why.
Love reading your detailed smoke reports mate! We gonna have to make a "BigRoo Approved" stamp for you! :)
I was unsure if I should put these on my menu but after your super detailed feedback I'm confident that people gonna love them.
Enjoy the weekend my friend and thank you for spending the time trying and reviewing my buds! :)

I bought most the buds myself after trying the tester. Genuinely put my money where my mouth was. There's more coming at the weekend I believe.
Thanks man. That was a pretty fun one to put together. They were all really nice smokes in their own way. Hopefully I've done them justice in my piece. I genuinely believe orange fans will like the Boof, haze fans will like the tangerine and sweet fans will like the pineapple. I hope I'm right!
Another great review wroth reading BigRoo thank you
Shame its a Haze head high, not what I look for. More of a lemon guy myself

The tangerine dream is a mix of two hazes and Afghan so no surprise it's turned out a hazy strain. The super Boof is super orangey though. I think orange fans will love it.
I note the full bud listing is live now - and orange fans are already on it as I've had dm's. Hope you all like it.. I can't leave it alone.
See personally I was one of the risk taskers with Thai lands superboof. And since smoking that no other cut has matched it for me. Clean ash, clean orange flavour and smell (so orangey it almost smells like tuna 🤣 only way I can describe it) and at around £60 an oz shipped?! Miss those guys!
P.s Thai-lands if you see this...you're a legend

I didn't order from them - nor have ordered from any exporter. I remember the pricing though as it had me considering it.
This one is a UK grow I believe. No idea how it stacks up against the Thai orange but it's definitely extraordinarily orangy but also definitely more than £60 an Oz.

Hey BigRoo great write up as always mate, 3 in one review, you really put yourself through the mill for us. I think this topic deserved a rocky style training montage with an 80's power ballad soundtrack and alternating shots of rolling, lighting, smoking, and docking.
You got me tempted to try some superboof now 💚

Thanks man. If ever I do video reviews that's how I'll do them.
I think you'll like the Super Boof. There's a few versions about but I don't know if they're all routinely so orange.

Send them a message from their profile (linked). I believe they have more stock arriving at the weekend.
3 Roo posts in a week, and two of them are orange related? Are we witnessing the second coming of Christ, Or has Roo become the Stamp of Orange Approval?
I went to order some after seeing your write up and I must have forgotten the bit where you said you'd bought it all. Drat, I guess I'll be waiting on the weekend!

Like buses. None for ages then three at once.
JC could turn any bud orange. That stamp wouldn't be safe in his hands. I reckon I'm qualified for this. Smoking pot is pretty much my whole CV.
Honestly mate the bit I got was delicious. I didn't plan to write about it until I opened the bag up. I'd seen super Boof about a couple of times. I'd always overlooked it. I figured I'd not be the only one. I was genuinely excited by how modern a strain it was and how strongly orange leaning it was. Perhaps a new era.

I've had a thought about that chap, JC.
If he's capable of turning Skunk into Super Boof then I wonder what he'd do with 5 Green rizla's, 2G of Thai brick weed and a Woodstock full of stoners?
Great write up again. 10/10 from me.
And CC, When you restock it I think I'll be grabbing some. I may have to start questioning random posties on streets and begin sniffing their mail for the scent of orange if it becomes that long of a wait.

RB Super Cheap Mixed Bargain Bucket Review

RB Super Cheap Mixed Bargain Bucket Review
A Promise is a Promise
I mentioned in my previous review of the lovely Mimosa from Radar Breeder that I'd also got a bit of the mixed bargain bucket and I'd review it if anyone was interested. Here's a review as promised.
Let's Check Out the Cheapie
Before reading any further it's important to note that this stuff is stupidly cheap. $82 for half ounce, $48 a quarter. That's delivered. I'll post a photo below in the comments. It's listed as grade B buds. Let's all set our expectations to realistic.
First Smoke
I picked the biggest bud and started with that. Cracking it open didn't release much smell. The grinder released some smell though and it was skunky or maybe hazy. Sweet, skunky, hazy. Could be a lot of things.
The flavour is a little muted and there's a bit of a green taste in there. Smoke is thick and while it's not as smooth as some of the nice bits I have in, it's not desperately harsh either. It's got a bit of a stone to it though. Seems a bit heady so I'll guess some kind of haze derivative like the ammie haze but not too sure on this.
It's not a bad smoke but it's probably priced about right.
Bud Two
This was one of the really small airy buds. In the grinder it is setting off my orange alarm. Either some Mimosa terps were leftover in my grinder or this is an orange flavour.
Smoking it, the flavour is again a bit muted. It's definitely an orange flavour or a derivative though like a tropicana. It smokes nicely and the effect suggests even more that it's an orange bud of some kind. Again, it's not a bad smoke but probably deserved its place in the bargain bucket.
Bud Three
This was one of the little nuggets. Again hard to tell by smell until it went in the grinder. Once ground up I'm pretty sure this is a silver haze.
Smoking it, it's not quite as musky as I expected but I'd still guess a silver haze. Of the three buds I've tried this is probably the nicest smoke of them. I quite fancy buying some high quality silver haze now. Silver is the one of the only hazes I really like.
Conclusion
It is what it says. It's a bargain bucket of grade B buds at a cheap price. It gets you stoned but you're not getting dispensary grade bud at pound shop prices. Sadly. Does anyone do that?
For the money it's completely fair quality in my opinion. I like detecting what I think each bud is so it's like cannabis cluedo. Although if RB or anyone who's ordered them is reading this they maybe chuckling at how wrong I am.
Gets You Stoned
The three smokes I had got me pretty stoned which is the core aim of course. I think it's partly as there's a mixed cocktail stone effect from multiple strains going on.
However -
It's got to be noted that you don't have to go up the price scale very much further to better the quality here. I've bought half ozs for about $13 more plus postage that were a much nicer smoke. That's of course around 22% more in total price so is significant for anyone on a budget. That extra chunk of cash plus postage counts of course.
For me personally I'm glad I've tried it. I'll use it as a daytime or starter smoke and I'll enjoy guessing at what each bit is. It might also vape alright if that's your thing as that tends to bring out more flavour.
Upgrade
But I'd be more likely to order a more expensive bit as while my budget is tight it's not quite that tight yet. The extra bucks are worth it to me.
That's my personal opinion but is in no way a slight on Radar Breeders bargain bucket nor anyone who doesn't have the extra (at least) 19 bucks for a half oz. Also worth noting RBs full priced buds are lovely.
Final Conclusion
Matched price for price I'd expect it's hard to beat. It's definitely much better than having no weed to smoke and definitely gets you stoned whilst sending you on a magical mystery tour. But personally I'd rather upgrade.
Thanks
As always thanks for reading my topic. I hope it was informative and if not I hope it was entertaining in some way.
Let me know what your goto low priced bargains on LB are. I'm genuinely interested as money is tight.

I’m smoking it just now, blast in a bong it’s all good🤣. Worth the cash for sure, and smoked with a little 1g extract at the weekend, happy days. Some of the expensive smoke is well overrated in my opinion. Just back from Amsterdam, purchased a pre roll, not house pre but a doughnut ( designer🤣). Rubbish. €65. I won’t name the shop as I’m not about that. 🤣
It's great value, completely agree. There's not many places will deliver weed at that price. Some of the expensive bits aren't worth it I agree, some are really nice though. I rarely buy top shelf stuff but some of it is fantastic as are some of the bargain bits I've had. That's the beauty of LB - there's so many options.
Exactly, the choice is plenty!! I started on here for some bud, now am smoking/vaping/eating everything 🤣. Happy days😎
That's a good point. My consumption is now much more varied. I buy various hash, extracts RSO, D9 and vapes as well as buds. I had tried various things previously but never had a reliable supply of oddities until LB.
I ended up getting the truffles in the dam, been a few year since I tried the old Tripp. 🤣
It's been about twenty years for me. Sometimes I fancy a little dabble when I see certain things on here. Maybe one day.
I’m just the same, throughly enjoyed them. 🤣. Wasn’t sure what to expect, 2g and guy says eat them within half hour but take your time, make sure to crunch open before swallowing. That was me, off I went. 🤣
Had a friend try the chocolate, he said the the visual was fantastic, colours ect, but also very clean not so much the head if you get me?.😁
I think I'm going to grab a bit this month at some point. I like the deep musky note you get on a nice silver.
Yo

Thanks BigRoo a joy to read as always. I now want to play cannabis cluedo... brilliant. Someone should market a version of that...copywrite it quick.
RBs mixed bucket looks and sounds like a good buy...I may partake when I next order.
Smoking neat weed i tend to smoke alot of shake so im all about a bargain ...and GCs sliver bubble trim/shake is banging stuff for $51 an Oz delivered .
Also Your Natural Medicine have a good selection of quality shake... about 14 different varieties. They sell it in 1/2 Ozs . You can get an Oz for $64.95 plus delivery and you can mix and match varieties. I've not been disappointed by any I've had yet...which is about 8 so far!

Thanks man for your kind words. I'm thinking about heading in the same direction. I was going to buy GC Skywalker shake last month but they sold out. Does the shake interfere with bud flavour when you mix them?
It depends how good the shake is really. Tbh I dont tend to mix quality bud with shake ...hash yes, I mix that in sometimes.... again tbh the shake /trim is so good you don't need to. GCs silver bubble is a perfect example, yes no bag appeal but it smells..and smokes just as good as bud. Expect a few small twigs but lots of pop corns and I even got a couple of nice nugs in mine this time. I honestly think you'll be surprised....and it sure gets you stone.
Ah - I thought you used it like tobacco. I need to finally quit the nicotine so need to try a few things out.
Maybe try some other herb mixes with the flower? Seeing as you're used to mixing, it'll still give the feeling, without using as much bud? https://www.alchimiaweb.com/blogen/herbs-mix-cannabis/
Only when I was trying to save money, used Chamomile. Was nice, no complaints, but I don't smoke baccy, so I rarely roll a j. I primarily vape, bong, pipe.
Its pretty common that people add in other herbs when trying to kick the baccy
Its pretty common that people add in other herbs when trying to kick the baccy
Yeah it's a terrible habit really. Very hard to give up though. I'll have to try a few things out and find a new balance.
Taper in CBD bud for the nicotine, gradually? Eventually it's 100% cannabis and then you may as well be vaping. Budget CBD bud (smalls, mixed, or heavy discount etc) make it affordable. Happy to make some recco's if you like
I've never tried the CBD buds at all - nor any other CBD product. I noticed someone was selling some on here though.
I found the best way to give up the baccie is to just stop. I tried various different ways to consume my greens after and found smoking shake suits me . Like you BigRoo I thought I would be using the cheap stuff as a filler and mixing the good stuff in but ive been pleasantly surprised by the quality of trim.and shake. Yes there is some rubbish out there but ive found about 3 good suppliers of good trim/shake and stick with them now. Also it makes me question why have i not been smoking this before.
I have to say ace, you've got me thinking. I've been aggro anti-shake (aka trim round here) since tbh my first and only experience. From TGT, no shade, but it was fucking awful - mildewy-mushroomy hay-smelling misery - but I was naïve and knew no better so sucked it up and rode the quite gnarly headband high until I could next get something better. Assumed I should have known better than to expect a genuine bargain, and learned just to avoid the stuff like the plague... but, honestly, whenever I spy a profusion of fat milky trichomes on a sugar leaf I wonder whether just maybe I'm missing a trick?
Maybe I should try the bubble huh?
What's the feel like?
Maybe I should try the bubble huh?
What's the feel like?
I think you should fateharder...you won't go wrong with GCs trim. I have never had a bad bit of trim/shake off the cat . It hits just like it should. .quite hard behind the eyes but quite uplifting and you can.get shit done! Plus i.find it hits quite hard because you're smoking it neat ...a single normal rizla blunt does me for a good couple of hour....i've been smoking 40 years so a pretty high tolerance
I started smoking it as my daytime smoke when.i packed up the baccie and it was costing me a fortune smoking neat bud. I get through about an oz a week plus 8th to 1/4 of good bud. Costs me about a 3rd of what i was spending...and I dont feel like I'm on a tight budget if that makes sense.

1. Big Roo - legend of the lil biggy, whose milkshake bars bring to the boys (and gals) to the yard. Honestly pal you make this place worth checking into even when you've got nothing to spend, and for that alone the respect on the name is plain.
2. Thoroughly approve of the sort of tidied up train of thought style - it's very engaging, very natural, so it pulls you along super organically. It's lovely, because often ganja reviews feel weirdly out of step with the vibe of consuming and enjoying cannabis: aspiring to rigid convention with the deployment of numeric ratings - which, frankly, mean fuck all - and segmenting the review into the arenas of aroma, flavour, and effect (my favourite is aesthetic. Like, yes, I can see it too. There are pictures. It's good for the blind though so I do support the inclusion. And tbf pictures get sent back to 2008 here so descriptions can be helpful) - each of which frequently get equal weighting and word count.... As if effects aren't fundamentally all that matter?? I've bought plenty of bud that smelled and tasted glorious, but did close to fuck all.... idfk.
3. As a budget bugger I feel seen, which is kinda uncommon and therefore pleasant. And I would too concur that +£10-14 is a worthwhile investment for 14g of good vs 14g of, naturally, very mixed quality product. Not that a mystery bucket isn't a fucking bucket of fun, because it is, especially if you enjoy the aromatic aspects but don't mind digging deep to unearth a terp or two.
4. I'd also suggest that specifically these kinds of takes are really important to share here: it's tricky for any one of us to get a read on the market, unless you have endless $ to pitch. It's all too easy to make disappointing decisions when seeking to scrimp a little, because you can only really know the level of quality you can achieve at differing price brackets by dropping hot wads of cash moneys, repeatedly. And even then you can probably never really know anything - phenotypes; 6x potency variance in tops vs bottoms, etc etcetc - but any little guidance is better than unprotected prodding at unknown orifices. Or, and I'm just saying... Or, those with sincerely-considered reference points referring to them in their reviews. Rather than the ultra-casual, oblique and fucking ambiguous "good shit", et al - just tell me what you know! Is it better or worse than similarly priced gear? That's the gold right there - and Big Roo digged it up. What a good egg.
5. And, lo! An authentic, not-uncritical review! The holy fucking grail. Another feather in your cap matey.
6. I'd support (emotionally if not especially financially... soz) a Big Roo Review Fund to enable more (and tbqh longer, still) reviews (- I'd read em!)
Come on boys and girls, get him back down the review mines - deep in the dank, where he belongs!!

Thanks man. I appreciate your kind words. I've tried to make my reviews reflect the smoking process and hopefully step readers through my own experience. It's really difficult to describe a taste, a smell and a feeling so I like the challenge. Sometimes I'm not sure if I'm communicating what I want to or not so I appreciate your detailed reply here.
I actually sincerely agree about the challenge! I'm a dog for terpene profiles - I love how evocative the aroma and flavour of good ganja can be (not to mention how significantly both can impact the subsequent physical/psychoactive experience)
As onesuch recent example, I had some of the larfy buds from Rozzyexpress' Violet Face grow - understandably not thc-rich, but even these were absolutely abundant in not only a really medicinal-feeling array (ratio?) of cannabinoids but also a fascinating collection of terpenes and terpenoids (and flavanoids too, I guess?) that elicited a memory of freshly dug allotment carrots down by the sea, transporting me back a hatful of decades with every new bowl.
So no, I was just being hotheaded. Aroma and flavour are essential categories of assessment. Really - it would seem - I just wish more users had a knack for describing the ephemeral! I wish I did too...
I do practice, though, as part of a general reverence and gratitude to the plant for the medical problems it (at least provisionally) remediates.
I'd be pretty lost without it, so love everything about it.

Definitely agree. The smell and flavour are critical to the overall cannabis experience. It's not just aromatherapy either but more entwined than that. Some of my favourite smokes are not the strongest ones but the tastiest.
I've got another topic to post from notes at the weekend. Hopefully I'll get chance to read through it later and post it up. It's the most flavour excitement I've had in ages.

Well, to pressure drop, I should probably mention I meant sensational as in, of the senses...!
But I left a deliberately vague lure... and caught a big one!

Great review,
I love the mix. Shame about the price hike though. Still good value.

That said I would rather see the quality stay consistent and the price rise over diminishing quality and a static price.
Welcome to Britain 2025 folks.
Welcome to Britain 2025 folks.
Here I was comparing a half oz at $101. 95 + 6 postage. Hence 20% more cost than the bucket. I've had a few half oz at that price that have been really decent smoke.
hi pal I've been smoking radar breeders shake his stardawg and silver haze both the best I've had on here and a lovely price too. there's never any mess about with them highly recommend them top service ❤️☮️👍

I Have a New Mimosa. I May Be Excited
I got orange buds. Yes if there's one thing that is irresistible to me it's orange flavoured buds. Regular readers of my topics may have picked up on this very subtle theme.
Sniff Test
I knew this Mimosa from Radar Breeder ticked my boxes as soon as I opened the bag. I didn't have to smoke any to know for sure I was in for some orange loveliness. The smell of magic was there.
What's the Vendor Like?
I'd not ordered from RB for ages. The combination of newly added free t24 postage and orangeness plus a recommendation landing in my dm's teased me into ordering.
Delivery was quick, appropriately stealthy and it reached me in two days in great condition.
In the Bag
There's a couple of bigger buds and several smaller nuggety ones. I'll post a photo in the comments. They're Dutch apparently but they seem to be speaking my language.
Side Note
I also took a punt on the RB super cheap mixed bucket - although I didn't buy a bucket full. There's some interesting looking buds in there that might be worth investigating. Let me know in the comments if anyone is interested in me writing up a super cheapie session.
The Mimosament of Truth
Upon lighting up the Mimosa I was pleased to find out I was completely correct about its orange credentials. I'd had the message about this bud but they couldn't tell me how orange it was as it was their first orange. I sensed that it'll not be their last taste. So I felt pretty certain I was on safe ground even before ordering. Thanks for the recommendation fella.
Distinctly Orange
The smoke is thick and distinctly orange. It's not a massively heavy hitter initially but it's got a decent strength via the typical delayed delivery stone synonymous with orange buds - it's a mild smoke until shortly after when you realise it's sneaked up on you and you're actually pretty stoned. I'm grinning and have achey cheeks.
I don't know what it is about the orange flavours that I like so much. On paper it's the opposite to most the other weed I buy. It's a sativa dominant whereas I buy Indicas. It's more of a head buzz whereas I prefer a body buzz. It's sour whereas I prefer sweeter flavours. On paper I should hate it. But I just love that thickly sour citrus flavour followed by a predatory stone that stalks you a while before leaping on you and lighting up your grin cheeks.
Is It The Best Orange Bud Ever?
No. But it is bloody nice. Of the Mimosas I've had from LB this is a pretty nice one. I'd not hesitate to order it again. It gets my orange stamp of approval.
What Is The Best Orange Bud Ever?
I'm not sure which was my favourite orange bud ever. KIG had Orangina which I really loved although from memory I think they preferred the Evo themselves. I've had an orange glue from a local in the past that was a pretty powerful and tasty orange variant. I'm happy to keep on searching for the perfect orange bud. That's a journey so good that I hope I never reach the destination.
Thanks
As always thanks for reading my topic. I hope it's been informative and if not I hope it was entertaining in some way. Thanks LB.
Let me know if there is any interest about the cheapie in the comments and whether you're also an orange fan.

I knew this Mimosa from Radar Breeder ticked my boxes as soon as I opened the bag. I didn't have to smoke any to know for sure I was in for some orange loveliness. The smell of magic was there.
What's the Vendor Like?
I'd not ordered from RB for ages. The combination of newly added free t24 postage and orangeness plus a recommendation landing in my dm's teased me into ordering.
Delivery was quick, appropriately stealthy and it reached me in two days in great condition.
In the Bag
There's a couple of bigger buds and several smaller nuggety ones. I'll post a photo in the comments. They're Dutch apparently but they seem to be speaking my language.
Side Note
I also took a punt on the RB super cheap mixed bucket - although I didn't buy a bucket full. There's some interesting looking buds in there that might be worth investigating. Let me know in the comments if anyone is interested in me writing up a super cheapie session.
The Mimosament of Truth
Upon lighting up the Mimosa I was pleased to find out I was completely correct about its orange credentials. I'd had the message about this bud but they couldn't tell me how orange it was as it was their first orange. I sensed that it'll not be their last taste. So I felt pretty certain I was on safe ground even before ordering. Thanks for the recommendation fella.
Distinctly Orange
The smoke is thick and distinctly orange. It's not a massively heavy hitter initially but it's got a decent strength via the typical delayed delivery stone synonymous with orange buds - it's a mild smoke until shortly after when you realise it's sneaked up on you and you're actually pretty stoned. I'm grinning and have achey cheeks.
I don't know what it is about the orange flavours that I like so much. On paper it's the opposite to most the other weed I buy. It's a sativa dominant whereas I buy Indicas. It's more of a head buzz whereas I prefer a body buzz. It's sour whereas I prefer sweeter flavours. On paper I should hate it. But I just love that thickly sour citrus flavour followed by a predatory stone that stalks you a while before leaping on you and lighting up your grin cheeks.
Is It The Best Orange Bud Ever?
No. But it is bloody nice. Of the Mimosas I've had from LB this is a pretty nice one. I'd not hesitate to order it again. It gets my orange stamp of approval.
What Is The Best Orange Bud Ever?
I'm not sure which was my favourite orange bud ever. KIG had Orangina which I really loved although from memory I think they preferred the Evo themselves. I've had an orange glue from a local in the past that was a pretty powerful and tasty orange variant. I'm happy to keep on searching for the perfect orange bud. That's a journey so good that I hope I never reach the destination.
Thanks
As always thanks for reading my topic. I hope it's been informative and if not I hope it was entertaining in some way. Thanks LB.

You should be writing for High Times or something BigRoo, excellent smoke/ bud/ vendor review. Your love of orange flavored weed knows no bounds. I would be interested in a BigRoo review on the mixed bucket ...as I'm on a tight budget these days and always looking for a bargain!
Thanks once again, your writing always brings a smile
Thanks once again, your writing always brings a smile
Thanks man for your very kind words. That'd be a great writing gig. I'm open to offers!
I'll break open the bargain bag at some point and write something up. I'm on a budget too at the minute.

Here you go mate - a wee write up of the bargain bucket for you.
If I see a Roo post I hit the upvote button before I've even read it. A true poet with words, I am sure Shakespeare is proud.
"But soft, what light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Mimosa is the sun"
I am now awaiting review of the mixed bucket. I always appreciate your opinion.

Great write up mate, RB is always stocking quality bud, and top comms too. The mix bucket is excellent value and I think of it like the Jellybelly beans of weed, some times one bud at a time and sometimes just a few random buds ground together as a cocktail.
I have been getting my orange hits from hash lately, working my way through the orange options.
Not sure if you have tried it but if you want quality orange hash then so far I highly recommend the WPFF Orange Canoli from RealD (linked) it is not the cheapest but well worth the price IMO.

Thanks mate. I've not shopped at RB for ages. I think it used to be a signed service (from memory). I'm looking forward to seeing what's in the mix bucket and wondering how many flavours I can pick out.
Most my hash buying sits in two categories. Tasty daytime commercials or mind-blowing evening expensive bits. I've not had the wpff orange but I've considered it a number of times.

Green Crack & Sweet Retreat: Is Twice the Price Twice as Nice?

Green Crack & Sweet Retreat: Is Twice the Price Twice as Nice?
It All Started With a Bonus Extra
Green Cat sent me a little unexpected sweet treat of Sweet Retreat alongside the other much cheaper strains I ordered - which included the wonderfully named Green Crack. There's no better price than free for a premium bud when I'm on a tight budget so it was very much appreciated.
Is Twice the Price Twice as Nice?
The Sweet Retreat is almost twice the price of the Green Crack on the menu ($50 for 3.5g / $55 for 7g) so I thought it might be fun to explore both and consider whether the fancy weed earns the fancy price tag.
Let's start with the cheapie.
Green Crack. The Promise of Skunky Goodness
https://littlebiggy.net/link/v25R2d
Green Crack is a back crossed skunk #1 so has a bunch of old school genetics in there. This cheapie from GC is very good value at $55 quarter.
Really Skunky
It delivers thick skunky smoke and a decent stone. As someone who routinely looks for some old school bits to accompany the various modern kush / gelato derivatives strains that are the norm now, this firmly ticks a box for me.
When I Were a Lad
I can still remember my first smoke of skunk and this flavour takes me back to the memory. It was completely unlike anything I'd had up to that point and it absolutely blew my mind.
I often think about kids starting smoking now and instantly being exposed to mind melting quality weed from day one. I wonder whether I'd have loved it the same or more or not at all.
Is My Smoking Rose Tinted by Nostalgia?
I don't know if it's all nostalgia or that you really need to dip into the past to get weed with really different genetics. It feels like there's a sort of feedback loop of modern cannabis that shrinks in an ever decreasing circle of genes while spitting out more strains than ever. I'm interested on people's thoughts on this.
What Was I Here For?
It's probably just as I'm old and set in my ways that I seek out old familiar things. Where was I? Where are my glasses? What did I even come into the kitchen for?
Ah yes, the Green Crack. I'm enjoying it. For a skunky cheapie it's really quite lovely to smoke; lovely deep skunky taste and a easy-hitting stone that creeps up into a nice little buzz.
Reboot Old Strains
TV and cinema have dived fully down the nostalgia route of late and it'd be interesting if the cannabis market did the same and rebooted classic strains.
I really enjoyed the White Widow I had from Twoz the other week too. I guess with modern growing equipment and techniques those older genetics could get a new lease of life. Maybe start with the old orange bud...!
Anyway, Green Crack is a winner. I like it. Absolute bargain of skunky loveliness.
Sweet Retreat
https://littlebiggy.net/link/tON5Zo
GC are renowned for decent quality lower cost and bargain strains like the Green Crack but this one comes in at $95 a quarter. That's a shelf higher than I usually reach for.
Notable Quality
The extra quality is immediately notable. It's a perfectly formed and pretty little compact bud. It smells a little like Permanent Marker with a distinct fumey essence. Maybe like a new piece of electrical equipment when you unbox it. That sort of solventy release.
Well Named
Upon lighting up it delivers thick smoke filled with hints of cherry candy. It's well named with some really sweet notes. It's a thick, creamy, silky sort of smoke with a modern sweetshop flavour tone. There's a tiny musk note amongst the fruityness making it a complex taste.
It is of course the very genetics I was questioning just a few paragraphs earlier that I'm now thoroughly enjoying. The stone is really pretty strong and arrives quickly. I have a strong dislike of thin mint cookies which are close relatives of this but I'm happy to report I'd not have picked that up from smoking it.
I'm Definitely Stoned
It's a heavy muscle relaxing stone making it feel like my head is too heavy for my neck and that it's amazing it took me until now to notice this basic human design flaw. It will be solved soon as my head finishes slowly sinking into my body until I finally have no neck left at all. I didn't expect to evolve into a blob-like species smoking this stuff I must admit. I have a bit of a brow sweat too. Although it could just be I'm nervy about the transformation into my new neckless human existence. I will need to sell all my scarfs. There's a lot to consider and adjust to.
Yup. Stoned.
Okay, reading that back I can immediately tell that the stone is really pretty good as it's the first bit of weed I've expressed as transmutational. I think it's fair to say it's doing its job very well.
Is it Worth (almost) Twice the Price of the Green Crack?
That really is the question isn't it. It's stronger, tastier, cleaner and I wish I had more. There's also an awful lot of other options at the price point to consider if I was opening my wallet up that wide.
Honestly, if money was no object I'd probably still have ordered the Green Crack to try its skunky goodness and I'd still enjoy it just the same. But, I will admit if my wallet was bigger I might well shop from a higher shelf more frequently. The Sweet Retreat really is a very nice smoke.
What About The Genetics I Questioned ?
They're lovely aren't they?! While I do believe my base point is somewhere close to being valid, I can see why we tend to drive down a narrowing route.
It Depends On Your Budget
So ultimately, the question as to whether it's worth it or not depends entirely upon how much your wallet bulges. Sadly life isn't fair and equal so, if, like me, you need to budget your cash then such things remain a little treat. Although the quality of the cheaper bits from GC is so bloody good I'm not desperately sad about it.

Hey BigRoo, great read mate. I think I would have to go for the cheaper option. TBF I would probably smash through the tasty stuff faster unless it knocked me out. If I was an occasional smoker I could maybe justify the pricier stuff, but if I am buying bud it is bang for buck that takes priority.
I think everyone is nostalgic for that weed they smoked when they had just started smoking, but just built up enough tolerance not to whitey. I am sure this will be the same for young stoners today but they will be nostalgic for Candycookiegelato77 or something.
Maybe it's a cycle and the old strains will become fashionable again but it seems a lot of breeders are more interested in high thc and sweet flavour strains.
Long live the orange terps 🧡
Keep up the good work mate

Good write up and views mate 🤜
I think green cats offerings are a good range of price vs quality.
The cheaper ones like cookie, silver and skywalker are solid staples for anyone’s smoke box.
I’ve had. Few of the pricier options and I think they edge the cheapest on flavours alone and that of course is subjective.
Myself I’m drooling over skywalker terps 😂
Others hate the stuff.

Thanks man. Skywalker is a favourite of mine too when it's the bluey version. I'm surprised I like the cookie dawg as I'm not a huge fan of cookies strains but it's a solid cheapie and I've bought it several times. The silver I had was nice too. Very old school flavourings with hints of the northern lights and less musk than you often get with a silver - although to be fair I like that flavour. I've had some remarkable cheapies from GC over time. I remember getting what I guess was end of bag Pink Certz smalls at like 50 bucks a Q.
I must admit not every time I've gone for a higher priced bit has it really been worth it. And some of the cheapies I've had have been really nice. It's a real mixed bag and like you say lots of it is personal tastes.

The pricy stuff was stronger but I guess you'd go through it at the same rate. There's also a lot of options in between those two prices. If money was no object I'd probably buy some more expensive bits. However I'm not fortunate enough to know for sure. I'd like to try out wealthiness to see how it'd be. Reckon I'd be good at it. I'd give it a good go anyway.
It'll be interesting to know which recent strains will be the future classics for the current generation. Perhaps strains are too fleeting now as they're crossed and back crossed into new strains so fast.
Aye, flared trousers have been all the rage two or three times in my life. Perhaps everything works in these cycles and orange flavours will be cool again.
Thanks man.

Great write up Big Roo. You make me go all nostalgic about smoking, which is something I do very rarely these days. But I'm content to enjoy smoking vicariously through you!
Thanks man. I appreciate your kind words. One day before long I'll knock it on the head and move to vapes. But not today.
I switched to a dry herb vape to wean myself off joints. Never really got on with the liquids. Unfortunately there comes a time when the lungs just can't take any more
I'm definitely approaching that point. I also prefer a dry herb vape to the vape liquids which tend to make me cough more than smoking does.
Another write-up, another read.
I have a feeling that the more Old school strains are making a comeback, Maybe not as the entree but more like a subtle undertone in the background. Much like classical music being played at a high end restaurant, You feel it but maybe aren't as aware of it?
Anyway, You may have twisted my arm into some Green Crack.

Maybe - I read about a jungle boys strain after I wrote this topic, called divorce cake. It's a white widow / wedding cake cross. Maybe we're stepping backwards one step at a time until we reach those tier one strains again - and then they will present them as new.
I like the Green Crack. It's really Skunky. For the price I think it's pretty decent. Let me know what you think if you pick some up.

Great reviews dude. Ordered 1/2 of the Sweet Retreat as I've had some recently for probably 50% over that price from another vendor, and I can't say I was as impressed as I should be by it. Typing that I realise I'm not necessarily a sensible or rational person.

Orange Fans: The Love is Spreading

Orange Fans: The Love is Spreading
As a keen follower of the orange products available on LB, I've noted an uprising. Like a cult movement. The orange love is rising up like a wave washing through the LB vendor menus.
I wished for 2025 to be the year of the orange flavours and that dream is slowly starting to become reality. This is it folks.
Let's start with the Mimosa. It does seem to be the one most people love. A sort of Goldilocks mid-point of orangeness that people have deemed to be just right. Not too much or too little orange flavour. And to be fair it's a good compromise point. I like it despite it not being my number one orange strain - but I believe we can do better.
Tasty Mimosa Variants
-----
SOTL has a Mimosa Evo:
https://littlebiggy.net/link/VlmRH0
I've not had this one but I've had the strain before and it's a lovely variety. SOTL are a super top reliable vendor with next level stealth. Like military bomber levels of stealth.
MJ has a Mimosa x Orange Punch:
https://littlebiggy.net/link/OvIuwt
I've not ordered weed here before but if something is going to tempt me to then it's this. If this is available on payday I'll likely order. Double orange. Hard to go wrong with orange genes on all sides. Part of me has to know has this tastes. Could it be my new number one? Plus I'll get a live resin cart I suspect as the menu here looks pretty good.
Tangerine Dreams (of Being More Orange)
-----
The Cannibals have an entry here with their Tangerine Dream:
https://littlebiggy.net/link/0hVlKB
Tangerine isn't my favourite orange strain but it's welcome at my party for at least wanting to be orange - and I like those cannibal guys.
Orange Bud Descendants
-----
GAW has a descendant strain from the original Orange Bud with their Passion Fruit:
https://littlebiggy.net/link/R5Jpqh
I had this ages ago. It was nicer than some reviews suggest with hints of the old orange flavours.
On that same note, my favoured weed vendor GC do also have a descendent strain from the hallowed California Orange Bud in the form of Tropical Cherry:
https://littlebiggy.net/link/bIx7EM
It's not a hugely strong orange flavour, as the name would also suggest by virtue of it being called cherry. But you can taste the orange linage.
And More Orange
-----
TGFB is bringing up the rear, so to speak, with an Orange Tree grow with a few seeds in. Not perfect but discounted.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/EheuGk
I've not had this and I don't know the strain but I've always liked their enthusiasm on LB.
Worthy of note are the bud bars by SK.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/JobMLq
I've not had these but I'm tempted to see how orangey they are for a budget item. They seem to review well and the price is great. I might jump in this month and see if it's a bargain smoke. Anyone had these?
Fancy Orange Hash
-----
As a fan of fancy hashes there's a couple of orange versions worthy of being on this list. I don't expect they'd bring so much orange flavour to the party but I think they're worth noting.
Firstly the Orange Cannoli WPFF from RD:
https://littlebiggy.net/link/UQW5hY
Expensive bit of hash but I remember Mr Rux stating one of the WPFF hashes was the strongest thing he'd smoked so if you're rich or celebrating then maybe it's worth a little treat to see if it's the full space rocket variety.
Next up is Orangina from BS:
https://littlebiggy.net/link/EbFlLp
Another fancy hash at less of a fancy price than the WPFF.
While I doubt they would add much of that dank sour orange flavour, they are orange in spirit so are welcome additions to my list. Who doesn't like a fancy hash - I know I definitely do!
A Short List
-----
Okay, so it was a short list. What I described as a wave of orange was in fact just a few items. More of a splash than a wave.
Become an Orangetarian
-----
If we all jump in though the splash will grow and before you know it every vendor will offer an orange option to satisfy our cult desire for that old sour dank orange flavour of the past.
Back in the 80s they didn't have vegetarian options in every restaurant but after enough people adopted the diet choice they are offered everywhere now. We need to be proud of our Orangetarian status.
Mystery Disappearing Orange Strain
-----
There was another nice looking orange strain from a well known vendor on here - Agent Orange - but both it and they seem to have disappeared from LB. I've no idea what happened there but overall I hope to see more people get on board and ride the orange train with more orange on more menus as the year rolls on.
More Orange to Follow
-----
I bought a small mimosa treat from TGS recently and I believe there's more of it incoming next week. I might do a separate write up of the nice bits I'm accumulating.
We can make it happen folks. Buy orange, support the cause and help liberate the orange flavour from oppression. Become an Orangetarian.
Thanks LB Folks
-----
Thanks as always for reading my topic, I hope the links are useful for you to have your own orange party, and if not I hope it was entertaining to read at least.
I'll see you orangetarians in the next topic.

As a fan of fancy hashes there's a couple of orange versions worthy of being on this list. I don't expect they'd bring so much orange flavour to the party but I think they're worth noting.
Firstly the Orange Cannoli WPFF from RD:
https://littlebiggy.net/link/UQW5hY
Expensive bit of hash but I remember Mr Rux stating one of the WPFF hashes was the strongest thing he'd smoked so if you're rich or celebrating then maybe it's worth a little treat to see if it's the full space rocket variety.
Next up is Orangina from BS:
https://littlebiggy.net/link/EbFlLp
Another fancy hash at less of a fancy price than the WPFF.
While I doubt they would add much of that dank sour orange flavour, they are orange in spirit so are welcome additions to my list. Who doesn't like a fancy hash - I know I definitely do!
A Short List
-----
Okay, so it was a short list. What I described as a wave of orange was in fact just a few items. More of a splash than a wave.
Become an Orangetarian
-----
If we all jump in though the splash will grow and before you know it every vendor will offer an orange option to satisfy our cult desire for that old sour dank orange flavour of the past.
Back in the 80s they didn't have vegetarian options in every restaurant but after enough people adopted the diet choice they are offered everywhere now. We need to be proud of our Orangetarian status.
Mystery Disappearing Orange Strain
-----
There was another nice looking orange strain from a well known vendor on here - Agent Orange - but both it and they seem to have disappeared from LB. I've no idea what happened there but overall I hope to see more people get on board and ride the orange train with more orange on more menus as the year rolls on.
More Orange to Follow
-----
I bought a small mimosa treat from TGS recently and I believe there's more of it incoming next week. I might do a separate write up of the nice bits I'm accumulating.
We can make it happen folks. Buy orange, support the cause and help liberate the orange flavour from oppression. Become an Orangetarian.
Thanks LB Folks

Thanks as always for reading my topic, I hope the links are useful for you to have your own orange party, and if not I hope it was entertaining to read at least.
I'll see you orangetarians in the next topic.
I fear I may have become a victim of the mystery disappearing orange strain.... if it doesn't appear tomorrow I'm pretty sure the agent has gone undercover!
I was interested myself - ironically, it was what originally sparked me to write this topic but when I searched for it, it was gone. I hope yours appears. I've no idea what happened there.
*Update, I've received a message from Dopey providing a tracking number, that storm has obviously hampered logistics, fingers crossed for an orange Monday
Glad to hear it. I'd actually love to know what that bit is like so please let me know. It was fully hyped on the sales page but it looked pretty good - like it might live up to it.
Will do mate, looking at the tracking deets it's a fair punt at the best of times but it's in the area so should drop tomorrow
Really nice bit of weed, good sized fresh buds, grinds perfectly, really smooth smoke and a nice kinda zoned out high. It doesn't scream of orange, there are definite notes of citrus but I'll be honest if it was a blind test I wouldn't necessarily say it was a predominantly orange strain. That said I have absolutely no complaints and would say yes, it's worth it for the price. I'm away to buy a can of Fanta to wash it down, that'll deffo bring it up to a ten!

It does look really good in the photo I must admit. Glad it came through all good. Thanks for the write up man.
Here are an extra couple from Radar Breeder:
Mimosa:

I had a q of this in the summer, i’m not an orangetarian, but this was some of the orangeyest bud i’ve had, it smelled like fresh orange peel. Lovely.
Clementine 73u hash:

Pricey, unreviewed, but RB is a name we trust.

I've had some nice bits from RB in the past. Thanks for adding these. The hash looks amazing. Pricey stuff but bet it's proper strong. I think I'll try the MJ Mimosa cross if still listed on payday. That's got my curiosity but I've not had their weed before.
Hey BigRoo as a fellow member of the orange terps fan club, I would be glad to see more orange options. I have not been buying much lately as I am on the homegrown but I am really tempted by the fancy hashes you named so I think a treat might be in order.
As soon as my current grow is finished I will be trying another orange bud in my next crop, the last one was disappointing but I always live in hope. 🧡
Keep up the good work

I figure the more we talk about the orange, the more people will try it and the more vendors will stock it. Every time I post about orange flavours there's a few more fans jump in. I hope for a moment like the Greggs vegan sausage roll which broke open the vegan market so wide that that even Kentucky now do a vegan option. We need that but on LB and orange flavoured; An orange product so universally polarising that's it's all anyone can talk about and vendors struggle to hold it in stock. Could be this year man.
The hash collective have some lovely looking (but not orange) stuff in at the min. Very spendy but looks the nuts. I'm hoping to have some piatella from them on payday too.
I guess it's all about picking a strain that'll grow well in your setup. Although from memory I think you said you had some excess heat last time. I'd love my own setup to grow a few bits I like. Hopefully one day.

I am definitely struggling with ventilation in my current setup but hopefully getting something better sorted this year.
You will have to do a write up on the piatella if you get some, I was fortunate enough to get some Cosmic Gelato from myconauts and it is really nice and a cut above, but I still struggle with the price.

It's hard to know what I'll think of it ahead of time but I expect that I'll come to that same conclusion. I've got some crumble wax at the min which is lovely at 35 bucks a g and some apple hash rosin at 25 bucks a g - that stuffs amazing in the dab pen. So the piatella would need to be about 4x as good as having both of these for it to be the same value for money.
I'm excited to try it though and I'll keep an open mind til I've tried smoking it a few different ways and see if I love it that little extra bit that makes the price seem okay.

That is a great selection. I love orange strains too, especially in the summer.
Would love to see a good version of Orange Bud make a come back. Miss that strain!
Loved Superboof recently though 👍

The Orangina is pretty full on orange bud flavour. I've only had it once. I think orange has a more marmite effect than other strains so is more of a gamble for growers and vendors. That's why I keep pumping these posts out in the hope a trend will start!
Superboof is noted. Not had it before but will try it for sure.

The Humble Spliff: A Celebration

The Humble Spliff: A Celebration
Once Upon A Time
The year was 1987. Margaret Thatcher won a historic third term of bossing the country about and Rick Astley dominated the pop charts with Never Gonna Give You Up. One did not inspire the other as far as I know. Also a very young BigRoo scored some basic Moroccan hash at school and had to learn how to roll up.
It's Harder Than It Looks
My first spliff was of course a disaster. I ended up getting a mate to re-roll it for me. This was very inconvenient so ultimately I had to overcome my clunky uncoordinated fingers and learn myself. I can now roll a joint in a semi-conscious state with my eyes shut and broken fingers so it's hard to imagine that it was once a tricky skill I had to perfect. But I genuinely used to look at proficient joint rollers with wide magic-filled eyes like Paul Daniels had just turned a handkerchief into a flower on TV.
It's Like Fricking Magic
This must be something we've all been through at some point. Not the watching of 80s magician Paul Daniels but the fumbling of a joint roll so badly it seemed only possible to accomplish by magic.
Three Greens and a Yelp
At first I started rolling using golden Virginia tobacco, the basic hash of the time and three green rizlas. The middle rizla held the other two together and creating a thick blanket of paper. Gradually I got the hang of turning this chunky mixture of tobacco and badly crumbled hash into a viable paper cylinder to smoke.
The next thing I had to perfect was crumbling the hash so that millions of hot rocks didn't suddenly fall out and give me pin burns that both ruined my clothes and forced me to leap up from my chilled seated position yelping and flapping at small skin burns to the amusement of everyone else in the room. Everyone from this era will relate to this I believe.
It Was A Simpler Time
Even with this rolling technique nailed it wasn't really that great. It's worth pointing out that rolling material options were not as plentiful as they are now and you couldn't just bowl into Tesco and buy ocb's. The internet hadn't been invented yet so no LB to order from. Pagers were still cool. On the plus side most towns had a dodgy backstreet pub that accepted that most the regulars were pot heads and so you could skin up and smoke in the pub. Very civilised - even without fancy rolling papers or internet connection.
Rizla Bonfire
Rolling with three thick green rizlas created a harsh smoke that smelled like you're lighting a bonfire with newspaper. So next was the lick, dab and peel method where you use just the sticky bit from the third rizla to stick the other two together into a long paper but dispose of the joining paper itself. Man this seemed clever at the time. Like beating the system.
Houston, We Have a Problem
Over time this was improved by using the thinner small blue rizla instead of greens. Every so often that clever join would let go while you were smoking it and it'd partly unravel. An Apollo 13 style rescue would ensue with a lot of moving parts, limited materials and a ticking clock until it was too late to save it. "How we gonna fill a round hole with a square peg?"
Bedsheet Sized King Skins
The larger king size rizla were ridiculously wide at the time and not available everywhere. They were much wider than large papers are now. I've since realised they were likely designed for reverse rolling (back strapping) but I didn't know such a thing existed then so using them for a regular roll wrapped up your joint in more paper than a chippy uses on your fish.
Fancypants Papers
In specialist shops things like rips were available. These came in a roll which you ripped to size, hence the name. The shop local to me also did rainbow coloured rolling papers for students who smelled of patchouli oil. At least they were the only people who bought them from what I could tell.
Channel 4 Cannabis Night
In the 90s I watched the channel 4 cannabis night. I've mentioned it before but for anyone who doesn't know we used to only have 3 channels on TV. Channel 4 was launched to challenge the musty, stagnant traditional channels with something more edgy and youth focused.
Amongst the many events on the channel during its experimental phase was a cannabis night. This showed all sorts of interesting and supportive Cannabis content all night long. Like a channel takeover. Cannabis was universally never addressed as a fun or positive thing in any mainstream media. I truly believe that this single night of viewing was culturally transformative for the UK and gave the mainstream media of the time a shake up.
It was like the cannabis version of the Sex Pistols seminal 1976 gig in Manchester where almost everyone who attended went on to start a band.
As years passed after the show, cannabis smoking turned from hash to fancy weed, rolling paper options increased, and it became common to find a range of smoking products in both local corner shops and big supermarkets. I think much of this early progress was born on channel 4 pot night as so many of us carried that with us as we grew.
Reverse Rolling
During this culturally important TV show I discovered reverse rolling (back strapping) was a thing and very popular in Holland where the cannabis scene was very different at the time. I didn't learn reverse rolling right there and then but that's when I wanted to learn it. I'd try every so often but would usually make a total mess of it and would find myself back on Paul Daniels territory thinking it was another magic trick.
The Sexiest Way to Roll
It was a while later when I met someone who could do it properly that I finally learned. Even then I had to relentlessly force myself to do it over and over with a much higher failure rate than I had on my regular rolls of the time.
But I gradually got it and that's how I still roll to this day. I like that you get a neat single piece of thin paper wrapped around your precious ingredients with just a small seam running along the length just like a tailor made cigarette or a pinup girls stockings. Basically back strapping is sexy.
Newfangled Cannabis Consumption
I'm totally down with what all you crazy kids get up to these days. Together you have further transformed the way we buy and consume cannabis here in the UK. I like my herb vape and I dabble with dabs with my little pen. I make my own edibles with RSO or D9 and I've got a live resin vape cartridge thing. Sometimes I get my pipe or bong out to smoke hash.
But... You Cannot Beat The Humble Spliff
Despite the myriad of smoking options, the one thing I return to over and over, is the simple, humble, basic spliff. I like the slow burning, gentle relaxation of gradually consuming a nice joint. It's thoughtfully ponderous and mentally resetting for me. Long term I'll likely migrate away from combustion for health reasons and I tip my hat to everyone who has - but for now I just can't resist puff after puff of thick flavourful smoke from a slow burning joint of a premium weed.
The Joint Rolling Ritual
Rolling a joint is ritualistic and an important part of the overall cannabis experience. You get to savour the freshly ground smell of the weed before undertaking a very personal and artisan rolling process that borders on the strictness of a traditional Japanese tea ceremony. Basically it's smoking foreplay to ready and excite you before sparking it up.
My Current Roll
These days I set out a brown OCB on my rolling tray. I still use tobacco and roll with a token amount of American Spirit. On top of that I add a pretty healthy amount of weed. Probably about a 0.4g. But I don't weigh it or particularly measure it. Might be 0.3. Could be 0.5. Somewhere around that though.
I then reverse roll it into a slight cone and stick it before tearing the excess paper off. I never burn this off as I see some people do as this has not worked well for me. Fire and me don't get along.
I roach it after rolling. I've never got rolling with the roach in place dialled as it seems to mess it up for me and either flair the end or turn it into a matchstick.
Then I light and enjoy. This was loads more words than I'd planned to write about rolling a joint. I got a wee bit carried away. If you're still reading you deserve a prize. You won't actually get one but really you should. I appreciate you sticking with me here.

I absolutely loved reading this. You're fantastic at setting the scene and creating vivid imagery with your words.
Nearly every fecking comment I leave on this site turns into an essay, so I can absolutely appreciate that
Stoned thoughts are a bonus to being on this site. It's nice to have a place to communicate them.
😂 we’re of the same generation, I remember those rock burns. All my fleece tops and joggers were covered in them!
And the days before rizla made the blue slims we had to make 2 sheeters with the paper that was so much thicker.
We used gold bennys for the baccy. My poor lungs

That takes me back - scraping together 70 pence to buy ten bennies to roll up with. That dry crusty tobacco. It's no wonder it took me ages to learn to roll. I think as prices went up I moved onto the Lambert & Desperate, not least for the hilarity of asking for it in shops and them knowing exactly what you meant. I've used American Spirit now for about 20 years I think.
Oh god yeah L&Bs, they had bits of bark in them!
I’m a dry herb vape and oil guy now
I do miss the whole ceremony of skinning one up.
I might blag a ciggy off a mate and make one for old times sake.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane

That's where I'd like to get to myself. While I've written a topic heralding the mighty spliff I know it's something that ultimately needs to be replaced in my life with a healthier alternative. Thanks man.
Finally got round to reading this, as I always enjoy your topics BigRoo!
Great read as always, and back strapping has been a game changer for me. It also helps the joint burn evenly as there isn't excess paper wrapped around.
I also recall the days where those green rizla would be stuck together, in my day we would call an L roll 😆
Although there was also flaff about having the right materials to roll up, i.e. a grinder, I always made do with what was available, and most times that was cigerette from the corner store called a single, blue slim rizla (if I were lucky) and my good old fingers to crumble partially wet weed which wasn't dried properly.
Still, simpler times nonetheless 😄

I don't want to tempt fate but I've not had a stuck rizla cascade for years.
I can remember my mate turning up with the first grinder I'd seen many years ago. I used scissors or just picked at it to roll so I laughed at his silly expensive paraphernalia buying. Then used his grinder all evening and bought myself one the next day. Was turned around on the subject very quickly.
Thanks man. I had the widow and diesel turn up today - with the bonus offer. Thanks. Not tried it yet but a brief sniff suggests all is good.

Great bit of writing and so very familiar. Loved it.
First joint in 87 also. 12 yrs old. Picking up my Dad and his mates joint butt's after they vacated where they usually sat and smoked a big fat homegrown doofers after a surf. Bit of a grotty intro but we managed to roll a single, badly, and got so stoned on the cliff. It was magic and love at first puff.
I've never tried this fandangled back strapping. Might have to give it a go as I hate too much paper on a joint.
I always L-plated, tore off the spare half and then licked the back to transfer the glue to the torn off edge. Nowadays it back to my roots and strong single skins.
Thanks for bringing out some memories.

Thanks man for your kind words. Once you backstrap you'll never go back! It's really nice ending up with a single wrap of paper with a neat seam. It tends to burn better and more evenly as well as you smoking less paper.
Basically,.you start with the sticky on the outside and facing you on nearest side. Literally the opposite to how you'd normally set up. You roll as usual but you have to make sure you roll perfectly as the first bit you tuck in is the sticky (don't lick it yet) and will become the seam. This is where a slightly sloppy rolling technique over the years will show up the most. Once you get the neat perfect roll you just need to keep hold of it, look at where the sticky seam is, then lick it through the papers to wet it. Hold it a short while so it's stuck then tear off the excess while the seam is wet and the paper will tear easily and exactly along it. That's why the initial roll has to be (near) perfect. You tear away from the direction it was rolled in if that makes sense so you don't rip the joint open. Hardcore back strappers can set fire to the excess and leave a perfect seam but this has never panned out well for me. I'm sure there are YouTube tutorials that explain it better. Give it a go and let me know how you get on. I'd genuinely like to know and I promise if you persevere it'll be worth it.

Hold it a short while so it's stuck then tear off the excess while the seam is wet and the paper will tear easily and exactly along it. That's why the initial roll has to be (near) perfect. You tear away from the direction it was rolled in if that makes sense so you don't rip the joint open. Hardcore back strappers can set fire to the excess and leave a perfect seam but this has never panned out well for me. I'm sure there are YouTube tutorials that explain it better. Give it a go and let me know how you get on. I'd genuinely like to know and I promise if you persevere it'll be worth it.
This is brilliant. Did you not start with a rolling machine though? I learned to roll in earnest when older friends would skin up for me and spark it first. That definitely wasn't continuing.
Just sparked a joint of Cherry Runtz from DrShroom rolled with my standard 3 small silver Rizlas, and I can't see me changing at this point. I also roach after rolling as I don't understand how it works otherwise.

I made more of a mess with a rolling machine if memory serves me correctly. I tried a reed mat too. I guess like most things it's mostly practice. Ultimately I got it and became the default person in the middle of an acid trip that people would hand rizlas and hash too knowing I'd still put it together into something we could smoke.
I've not met a three skinner for years though and I must admit it seems an odd habit to keep considering there's now about fifty thousand different pot rolling papers in the local corner shop. Do you not get on with a single sheet roll? Or just set on your ways?
I'm with you on the roach though. Whatever I do it messes with my roll if I put it in first. Probably all true connoisseurs do this in a two step process for perfection. It's worth the additional time.

I don't get on with a single sheet roll dude. I'm mocked about it by stoner friends, obviously.
If that's how you roll it's how you roll man. No need for anyone to gatekeep getting stoned. If it works for you, it works. I'd never mock it.
Honestly, the truth of the matter is I had to dig deep to write that. And not least as I had to delete two potential phrases your mates may might mock you with that I really thought were great until reading them back. I may have just grown up. Damn that happened when I expected it the least.

It's been a few years since I sat down with a humble joint and had a nice long relaxing smoke, normally it's home, switch the Volcano on and get about .5 of the 'erb in there, grab a bottle of coke and that'll normally do me about 2 hours, then I'll give the bowl a clean, reload and repeat. Probably up to 3-4 times a night dependant on how I am feeling, maybe even a cheeky high temp run at the end of a night to sort myself for bed, to repeat it all the next day.
Though it's been that long I may not be able to finish a joint in one sitting. I normally share a joint with a friend once every now and again and I can just about manage to get through it (Though I have a feeling this is down to his tobacco of choice, as I was a GV smoker back in the day and Amber leaf tastes like I'm sucking on a bottle of disinfectant to me)
On the bit about rituals, It's always the same for me, it adds a bit of calmness into what is a hectic life, and just the thought of getting in, getting my boots off and turning the volcano on means I can power through another day. It's the small things in life that gives us the power to go on sometimes. Cannabis and I have a mutually beneficial agreement, I agree to vape it and it agrees to help quieten my thoughts down a bit and allows me to be able to relax, and I would hate for that agreement to not follow it's usual ritual.
Another excellent post Roo, Now I am just waiting for you to review GC's Gelonade as I am always curious to the difference in stone from vaping Vs smoking.

Your routine is probably more sustainable than mine. I still do a lot of sport so tobacco is not helpful. Eventually it has to go. I also have a stressful and hectic life - you know - no one warned us it was gonna be this hard - so I like the punctuate the end of my day with a smoke to draw a line under it all. Divide the mentally draining bit from my own section of time. So when I get up the next day to do it all again I feel I've had a break. I guess most our chill rituals fit a similar pattern.
UK amber leaf is awful. Oddly the imported stuff is totally different and not too bad. I've long since used American Spirit. It doesn't have the same additives and comes almost dry to start with. It burns nicely and the taste is very mild so the weed dominates the flavour.
Didn't I reply to you about the Melonade? It was a decent bit with a nice diesely flavour. I've still got a 3.5 left I think. Might break it out this afternoon.

So you did, and yes, It was Melonade not Gelonade (apologies, I did go through it fairly quickly though).
I think a ritual is a good thing. We all partake in daily rituals, so why not have one for relaxing in the evening? I doubt your method is any less sustainable than mine, maybe on a health point yes, but your ritual is your ritual, You do what works for you.
I will always advocate vaping though hopefully without getting too preachy, solely for the fact it doesn't stink my office out to high heaven, Though I do keep a small glass piece clean for if I decide to combust, but no tobacco.
Have you looked into something like a Ruby Twist running through glass? It looks complicated but is pretty easy to set up. Great extraction and running it through glass brings back some sort of familiarity.

Yeah man it's the tobacco that really has to go first. Nicotine is probably the only drug I regret trying. I only smoke it in joints but it's still detrimental to my health.
Aye - as my grandma used to say, "a little of what you fancy does you good."
It's definitely good to break away from the stressful parts of life for a while. Even if all the same problems are there when you get back you can at least look upon them with fresher eyes.
I've no idea what a Ruby Twist is - I'll Google it later on.
I'm not against vaping. I do enjoy a little vape but usually as a top up. I also make vaped weed cookies which are surprisingly strong. Possibly as I don't vape the weed enough.

Brilliant BigRoo. Still can't bloody back strap to this day!
Your first paragraph basically summed me up but it was 85 for me. I was 15 ( 9 days before I turned 16!) Village junior school bikesheds. Red seal
I did love a good spliff
The biggest change for me was giving up tobacco 15 months ago. This was forced...I needed an operation on my stump ( I'm an amputee) and they wouldn't do it until I'd stopped smoking for 3 months! I refused to give up the weed so we agreed on vaping. Didn't help at all in the end but I never went back to tobacco. I really don't enjoy vaping so now I'm on blunts...gets me really stoned but is costing a fortune! I'm now up to an oz a week ...used to be about half that.
I have found I don't enjoy hash as much. I smoke hash through the bong or vape now and It tastes awful unless it's really top notch hash.
Thanks BigRoo for putting a smile on my face this early on a Saturday morning 👍

I should give up the tobacco too. It's definitely detrimental to my health now and I don't just brush it off like when I was a teenager. I've tried a few times. Every time I get ill I quit smoking and go onto edibles / vaping. I figure it's the perfect time to see it through and quit. But it never lasts for me. Once I'm back to normal I just go back to smoking. I guess I have a complete lack of commitment and willpower. I suppose you had the additional motivation of the op you needed which forced the issue and it's making me think I probably shouldn't wait for something similar and should take control now. I like the taste from vaping. I don't smoke tobacco inside my house so quite often have a few blasts on dry herb vape if I'm watching a film or something. It's quite nice and chilled but it's not the full hit I crave. Might try rolling a couple of pure spliffs later and see how it is and how long I last.
Thanks man for your kind words as always.

Hehehe - you're not alone on this thread. I'm still on the road to hell though it seems - and there's a hell of a lot of traffic.
It's worth a try BigRoo. I've got to admit I wasn't happy at the time..being told what to do, I'm an anarchist don't you know. I'm with you...nothing really hits like a spliff. I stuck to the vaping til after my op but then the bong creeped in....hits better but made me cough something rotten. Then I started experimenting with blunts and different filters. I've tried various filters but OCB Activ carbon filters are very good, they stop alot of the crap getting through. Some say they ruin the taste but personally I think they have a marginal effect. The last few months tho I have been experimenting with various glass tips and I'm preferring them more and more. They take nothing away from taste/hit...they sometimes add a bit when you suck some grind through but usually this is just the first drag ...but you can also get some with glass beads in that stop all that..I just tend to find them to big and you have to roll a big bifter to accommodate. I prefer the slim ones...about 7 mm diameter for a blunt....just right I think. Now the only trouble with smoking neat is the cost ..I'm buying more and more shake to smoke and just a few nice bits for the weekend. I know some don't like messing about with shake...I was one...but I've had some banging stuff off LB for like £40\ £50 an oz... GCs is very good shake and i had some fantastic skunk no1 last week off Oro verde ....but all of it gets you stoned ....really stoned sometimes and then you wonder why your buying stuff at £200 oz!
You will cough to start with but it gets better...I only cough when I actually smoke now....not from dawn til dusk like before. Worth a try mate

If you haven't tried it yet you should get some 'professor herb premium hemp blend', it is basically a pouch of ground up CBD bud. I used to buy it from flawlesscbd.co.uk and it is kinder to the budget, throat and tolerance than shake.💚
I'll look into it mate. I've got a glass blunt thing in the cupboard I'd forgotten about. It's sort of like a syringe. So you pack a tube full of weed, light it at the end, and then you can keep pushing the weed along the tube so the smouldering bit is at the open end so it keeps burning. Like a glass Spliff - at least that's how it's sold I used it before when I quit tobacco and it was pretty good. The drawback, like you've mentioned, was it cost a fortune to fill up. I tried using vaped weed as tobacco with fresh weed on top in spliffs. That got me proper stoned but had an unenjoyable taste for me. I will find a better balance as I move forward as the tobacco definitely has to end at some point. I'm still at a point where it's not hugely detrimental and I still enjoy it but that balance is shifting fast as I age.
That thing sounds interesting...never seen or heard of such a thing...I will now be searching! Any recollection of where your acquired said glass blunt thing?
I think.you should think about getting some shake/trim to try as a tobacco alternative...honestly I have been truly blown away by the quality of shake around.. just took delivery of an oz of Skywalker of GC.. $51 delivered on a Sunday. It's full of popcorn buds, stinky and once ground up it's not far of the bud and I'm smoking it neat and far to stoned for a Tuesday afternoon....naaaarrrrggghh!
Tbh I definitely smoke more now, it used to be about 1/2 a week. Now it's as least 3/4 probably nearer a 1ner but saying that I don't smoke as often because I get alot more stoned when I do....if that makes sense? If I'm at home all day it's probably 6 to 8 blunts a day instead of a spliff every hour or so...when I'm working and only toking in the evening it's 2 to 3 at most. I still like my nice bits but I buy alot less 1 to 2 8ths a fortnight now and I only get 4-5 blunts per 8th if I stretch it so that's why I switched to shake for weekday/ all day smoke. I can also say I've been more surprised by the shake than disappointed...and there's quite a bit of choice out there too.
Hope you had a good bank holiday btw 👍

The last time I got shake I made some hash from it. I've often thought about picking some up again so probably will after payday and see how I go. I've linked a similar glass blunt thing. When searching for it I saw you can get better ones with corkscrew action. It did work pretty well though. I should dig it out again.
Thanks BigRoo, I think i will have to purchase one...I'm intrigued.
It's worth a go and it's not loads to lay out if you don't enjoy it... and there's always hash or edibles for leftovers.
I do feel healthier....whether I am or not I don't really know but I definitely cough less.
Thanks again for the link 👍

Mmmm... Mimosa Punch

Mmmm... Mimosa Punch
Orange Fetish
It's no secret that I have a wee thing for orange flavours and also for Green Cat. So when GC added a Mimosa Punch to the menu I was all over it. What a perfect combination of vendor and product. I'll probably be smoking it all month now as I bought extra.
So what's it like?
Mmmmm... It's bloody lovely and orange that's what it's like. It's got a very old school orange flavour. There's hints of other vintage strains in the smell. It's almost a bit northern lights, a hint of skunk, but mostly it's a lovely deep citrus orange.
Stamp of Approval
It gets my orange stamp of approval. It smokes lovely and is definitely very pleasantly orange. The main stone is nicely delayed and kicks in late. It's not a massively heavy hitter but it's getting me pretty stoned so I imagine it'll work out for many other LB folks. I've just hammered two fatties on the bounce and have a little face sweat and will be super happy to eat dinner soon.
Genetics
Mimosa Punch is a cross of Mimosa and Orange Punch. Basically it's double orange and I suppose double punch too as Mimosa has purple punch parentage. Both strains have a link back the original old orange bud. It's the perfect orange storm.
I Reckon You'll Like It
In short, if you like a bit of orange then jump on the GC train and get yourself some Mimosa Punch. I'm pretty sure you'll like it. Orange fans may also like the Forbidden Fruit too which I have bought too but I've not smoked yet as I'm Mimosaring my way through the evening.
Thanks for Reading

Evening BigRoo, As someone who has never tried orange strains, How would you say the stone is? I've had a couple of bits from GC before and have all been absolutely top notch, I may order the Mimosa Punch next.
Generally a good orange bud stone will be a fairly gentle hit to start but with a much more solid but delayed follow up hit. So you have a bit of a high first but then a heavier stone sneaks up and kicks in. That's the sign of good orange genes. The Mimosa Punch is a really decent stone but not a massively heavy hitter. I've got several strains at the min and am only smoking the mimosa though. I've got a melonade I've not even opened. That says a lot.
I am vaping away on the Melonade right now, I rate it highly (though I don't carry much weight around here), And I'd be very interested to hear your opinion on it. Though I am new I have read most of your reviews and have been toking a little while now before I found LB.
The melonade is lovely. A fruity twisted diesel flavour. It's a good strength with thick smoke. I like it.
A sentiment I echo, it's packed with flavour and goes nicely in the Volcano too. Just curious, and I'm not getting preachy (You do you man), but have you ever tried a DHV? Not cheap shit, a good one? I haven't smoked for years and struggle with a good old joint. I understand the "cleaner" stone might not be everyone's cup of tea, I'll be honest, it took a while to get used to.
I've got an Xmax which is alright for my occasional vaping. My mates got the mighty which is excellent but I think he probably goes through more weed. Every so often I quit spliffs and use my vape and also my dab pen. I always go back to smoking joints. I miss the slow burn chill of a simple joint. If you've not tried extracts through some sort of dab rig or pen then that's a pretty good experience. They go a long way in a pen too.
I may also own a Proxy for extracts. I'm glad you've done what a lot of my friends have done, which is try a DHV. I feel as though cannabis is a journey for some of us and it is all about trying new experiences.
I'll dig a bit out tomorrow and have it as my first one. My review now would just be "it's not orange" as I've already started on the Mimosa.
Thanks for reading my stuff man. No one's opinion is more important than anyone else's though. Our cannabis consumption is a personal thing and I'm sure we all have our unique needs. You're the best judge of your own needs so your opinion is just as valid as mine. You may also find there are more people like you here than me. So your opinion has every chance of speaking to more people than I do. Your voice likely has more weight than you realise.
A good example is that I haven't vaped any of this weed. And quite often you'll find things that smoke well don't always vape so well - and vice versa. So even within the remit of this chat you have some knowledge I don't (yet). This places you as the vape expert within this conversation.

Hey BigRoo, you have got me very tempted to try this one. I would love to buy enough to press some and get some orange rosin but I spent all my coin on hash again.💚
I wish I needed to restock! Still got lots of Skywalker og and pink certz, didn't have that in stock when I purchased.
Skywalker OG is one of my favourites when you get the really blue tasting versions. I had pink certz smalls which was probably the best bargain bit I've had on LB. Really lovely smoke that.
Honestly I'm over stocked at min as I ordered twice in just a few days - and I've not got the money for the druids new crop which I'd probably have dived into. I guess life is all about choices.

Lol. Yes mines quite blue it's very nice, very strong flavor in the vape. The pink certz is very candy like. I've just bought 3 live resin vapes so don't need more bud 😅
I'm not familiar with the druid, who's this?
I'm not familiar with the druid, who's this?
The druids are a small grower that produce really old school natural buds with tons of flavour once per season. Their latest batch went live and sold a couple of strains out straight away. I'm not surprised. It's really nice weed - and very different to the commercially grown furry pebbles we're more used to. I've not had any of this recent lot so can't say how it is but I expect it's lovely. Worth keeping on your radar. Linked to their profile.
Thank you! Know what you mean about furry pebbles. I love a pungent flavoursome flower that's got nice structure not like a rock. Just checked out druid and looks like they have nice bud for sale now.
Snap it up while it's there if you've got the coins. So long as you're expecting a more wispy natural grow with lots of old school flavour notes I think you'll be happy with it. I can see why they sell out fast as it's a lot different to most commercial buds here - aside from a few other small growers - so is a standout product. Damn it I want some too now...
I've over spent early though so am committed to an orange month. I've got last bit of jungle juice, forbidden fruit and double helping of mimosa. The druids are due a new crop sometime soon so will be a shame if I miss out through cash flow thoughtlessness.
I'm with you on the cash flow front , I'm smoking shake at the mo...all my good buds gone on gardening chores this weekend and the coin man says no more til payday too. I,ve got about an ounce to go through and I just looked st GCs menu and i have just enough coin to get an oz of his Skywalker trim. Gonna be a lean couple of weeks.
Druids look like they've got a couple of nice bits coming through...fingers crossed til.payday

Looked at Druids again last night and couldn't resist trying Wham Boom...so the trims out the window now!
After reading this topic I jumped in on the Wham Boom too. Never had driuds stuff before. Can't wait. Thanks guys.
Damnit.... Everyone has the druids weed but me. Might have to scrape it together for an order. Let us know how you get on with it.
Will do .. i changed my mind on the 7g of wham.boom and went 3.5 wham boom and 3.5 fosters ...the other strain they had on ..they got some frozen black cherry coming through soon
Good choice. I'd have done exactly the same. Might wait til the black cherry. I'll mull it over later and make a decision.
I'll let you know how it goes
There were no reviews on these two strains so might be around a little while

Thanks mate. I'll be interested to know. The druids stuff doesn't usually hang around for long though.
Well the druids landed today, I must say it's impeccable service from these guys...when I message to change my order I had an immediate reply. Never had that happen on LB before.
The bud, they really do stink, both have a skunky edge to the smell. I've only tried the Foster so far...so glad I changed my order! Sticky icky buds, light in weight and take a bit of grinding coz of the stickiness..smells so good tho...even though I think that grinding buds knocks the flavour/ taste ..a discussion for another day that. Still it tastes divine, and a quick draw on the blunt before lighting takes you back 30 odd years , beautiful taste. Smokes and burns clean,no harshness at all . The high hits fairly quick In the eyes but the head takes a little longer but it keeps coming and coming....I has my first blunt around lunchtime, 12ish...had another about 2ish and still felt stoned when I had tea at 6 ish ..never touched anything else til after tea. Bloody lovely.
If you can, grab some mate ...you won't regret it.
Wham boom tomorrow 👍

That's the druids experience! Top vendor. I felt just the same when I got my first order. Took me back to early Dam days.
Apologies for the delay... Wham boom, another beautiful smelling offering from Druids.... sweeter smelling bud this, definitely get vanilla and a bit nutty too but my nose isn't the best! Again sticky buds, a bit denser than the foster too. Smokes super clean and smooth, can taste the vanilla aswell on the inhale a bit ...slightly spicy exhale, not unpleasant at all. The hit comes on pretty quick to the head, quite uplifting straight away...then after 20min ish the body starts to catch up and everything starts to relax. All in all pretty well balanced imo.
Again I have no hesitation in recommending it...but if you have to pick one I'd go for the foster...so happy I changed my mind and got some of both.
Have a good weekend BigRoo

Damnit. Feel like I missed out. Druids always pop out unusual strains grown to perfection. Am jealous. I can't justify ordering though as got a few bits left still. I'm smoking the blue lemon from GC at the min. Was silly cheap but is actually pretty nice to smoke and tastes much as the name suggests. I've got some RS11 for later on. One of my favourite strains. Seems to taste of something different each puff. I've still got some mimosa tucked away. Will go back to it once I'm desensitised to the orangeness.
GC has had quite a few nice cheap bits lately . Never tried the blue lemon tho.
Roll on the end of the month! Have a good one sir

Yeah GC cheapies are generally really good for the price. It's hard to justify spending more sometimes. Thanks man.
Always a pleasure reading your posts. As an Orange terp fan myself, it's nice to have confirmation when there is something tasty on the wall.
The last Mim punch I had, was from MJConcentrates. It was spectacular and something I will go out of my way to experience again.
Much appreciated

Thanks man for your kind words. I had the mimosa punch from MJ too which was lovely. This is a bit different to that, the buds don't have those dark little leafy bits like on the MJ version so it's not as pretty. But it's a stinky old school flavoured double orange bud to smoke for sure. Price is cheap too.

Join Me For Star Wars Day
Welcome to Star Wars Day. For the uninitiated it is like 420 for geeks and there's no better year to start as it's a bank holiday tomorrow. It was only a year ago I realised other stoners actually celebrate star wars day. I went to the shop to buy a couple of packs of ocb's and the fella asked me what was going on as he'd already sold two boxes that morning. Then I realised that a load of us plan to blast off into space for the day.
- How to Celebrate Star Wars Day
Get stoned and watch Star Wars. It's really pretty simple. It's the sort of multitasking I'm sure we can all handle. There's now a massive amount of viewing options available as there's various films, series and cartoons to choose from.
Basically there's a Star Wars suitable for virtually everyone. To help us celebrate they're dropping Tales of the Underworld today as six brand new short animated episodes focusing on some of the bad guys which might be pretty fun to watch as a starter.
Some local cinemas will show the movies depending upon how cool and trendy an area you live in and LB has a range of edibles and mushrooms that'd make it a cinema trip to remember. The core point is to get fully hyper spaced and absorb Star Wars content. I don't think Disney particularly push this angle but I'm pretty sure it is correct route to take.
- Believe in Your Dreams
The extended star wars world really is a testament to just how fully you can realise your creative dreams if you believe in them enough.
The first film very nearly didn't make it all the way through production. Even many people involved in the film had little hope of it doing well. George clung to what he could to get it across the line and in to the cinemas.
And here we are, almost fifty years later, and we're not only still celebrating the film series but the story is still growing. Admittedly not always quite as brilliantly as the original concept set up but growing nonetheless. New generations will grow up loving Star Wars just as much as I do. The story will likely outlive me and I find that oddly comforting.
- I've Got Some Good Bits In
I've got a few bits stashed including some crumble wax extracts from Dr D and the last of the Piatella I had from THC plus I have just picked up a couple of lovely looking new strains for the day.
- Jungle Juice from The Wizard of Oz 420
https://littlebiggy.net/link/L86xh4
First up we have the jungle juice from Twoz. I ordered some of their RSO too but to be honest it was only as Dr D had sold out. However it's really a decent grade for using in my cookies. The syringe comes in a extra little protective tube so it's in perfect condition and the strength is very floaty, clean and wide ranging. Actually it's really strong stuff. I really like edibles with RSO as it tends to completely nail me and this did not let me down. Anyway, on with the jungle juice.
- Is It Orangy?
The jungle juice appealed to me as it's Animal Cookies crossed with Tangie. The Tangie has a direct link to my favoured Orange Bud. Opening the bag definitely promises some orangeness is on the way. Smoking it however doesn't deliver the full dank orange flavour like a Mimosa would but it's fresh and citrusy with the delayed stone that creeps up and batters you that's typical of orange strains. Tastewise it probably leans towards a citrusy cookies flavour although a cookies fan may tell you the opposite. It's a lovely smoke in it's own right though and I wouldn't want my orange fetish to put you off ordering it.
- Half Breed Strains
I guess this is often the case with many crosses. You assume it's a 2 for 1 flavour bomb whereas it's a 50/50 flavour mix. You get half of each. The Jungle Juice is a really nice balanced smoke, lovely flavour and a hard hitter, but it's just not as tremendously orange as my expectations were. At least my reputation for supporting new orange related strains is fully in tact.
- Twoz's Vendoring
Twoz seem like a solid vendor to me and must be one of the fastest vendors on LB. I've ordered twice now and the service has been great, fast and the weed very decent for the price. Both times it's reached me inside of 24 hours so they're a good bet if you're in a hurry.
- RS11 from Green Cat
https://littlebiggy.net/link/77Qg9B
The next strain I couldn't resist was the RS11 from GC. I also ordered a few cheapies as they've had some unreal cheap bits of late plus more of the American LA Mousse. That's a lovely daytime fresh tasting hash. I'm really liking smoking it. Easy to roll with and clean to smoke. The Italian Ice is my favourite variation although with some orange in its genetics that's no surprise. It's also no secret that GC are my favourite vendor on LB. I can't recommend them highly enough.
They've just dropped all sorts onto the menu including Mimosa Punch, Forbidden Fruit and Blue Nerds plus lots of other bargains. So it's a great time to dive in and buy one of everything much as I intend to later today. I really ordered at the exact wrong time in all honesty.
- Back to the RS11
I've had RS11 a few times from other sellers. When it's done well the flavour is incredible. It seems to taste like one of everything from the sweetshop. Will this one go all the way up to 11?
Oh yes. First few puffs and I'm immediately unable to place the flavour as it's every flavour. It produces sweet, rich, thick smoke that is a new flavour every puff. It's sweet, it's sour, it's blue, it's musky, it's citrusy. It's like the mambo number five for flavour sensations. The stone doesn't hit you with the powerhouse thump of some strains but it is no weakling. It's more of a gentle hit where you don't fully realise the stone until it's crept up and is sweating from your brow.
I can definitely recommend the RS11. I've just rolled a second one. First puff like blueberries, second puff a sour candy, third puff cherries. It's a great example of the strain but in all honesty GC have so many nice options right now that you'll struggle to choose.
- I've Let Myself Down
I've missed an obvious trick by not ordering any Skywalker OG. It's a favourite strain of mine and I often get it. This would have been the perfect moment to order that and a bunch of other space related strains too like the cosmic gelato and starburst. Man, don't you hate hindsight. I did not think this event through thoroughly. Let's make a plan for next year. Space strains and Star Wars - who's in?
- Happy Star Wars Day
May the Fourth Be With You - Always. Well, not always. Once per year is fair. You can still get stoned and watch Star Wars on other days though. It's not only allowed it's fully recommended.

As always thanks for reading my topic. I hope it's been informative and if not I hope it's been entertaining. I also hope I've encouraged some of you to join me in space today. I wouldn't want to 'force' anybody though.
Let me know if you're joining in and how you plan to spend the day.

Hello there!
Keen to get your insight on your favourite hybrids and their effects. I'm in search of an elusive mix of 'creativity' head buzz but with a gentle body stone. Help bring balance to my force.

I once watched 9 movies back to back in chronological order (as Lucas suggests), 5 on a Saturday and 4 on the Sunday... that was all of them at the time...
You'd need to spend weeks to consume all the films and series now. And would likely need a guide to get them into chronological order. I assume someone's mapped it out though.
I'm doing the Obi Wan series today. 6 episodes. Will do the new tales cartoons later on tonight. Am getting slowly baked too. RSO cookies later. Thought it best not to start on those for breakfast.
Happy Star wars day Polly.

Happy Star wars day Polly.
The chronological order of the Star Wars movies is: The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, Revenge of the Sith, Solo: A Star Wars Story, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi, The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi, The Rise of Skywalker. 🤓👌
11 movies. With series at various points in that time line. I think some of the series cross over too. We're 3 episodes into Obi Wan now and just had first of the RSO cookies.
May the 4th be with you once a year (beep-boop-beep/lightsaber sounds)
I am taking some Galaxy Runtz for a walk to enjoy with a cold hoppy IPA - Brewdog Fruit Twist 🌞🥦🍻
Enjoy your weekend 👍

Thanks man. Happy Star Wars Day. I'm just settling in for the rest of the day. Gonna get spaced.
May the fourth brother. Count me in for next year and getting cosmic. Still remember queueing down the flicks to see the first film in 77.
Likewise I'm on some of GCs menu... mimosa punch...Nice, Melonade... hard hitting for the coin 👌 and my personal favorite at the mo Snowman Og [ reload ]. Also some Static shock shake and Tangie 120 hash from Dapper . It's a good day
Have a good one everyone 💨💨

I'll get organised ahead of time for next year. I'm ordering mimosa & forbidden today. I got the snowman - lovely old skunky flavour. I've got melanade too but haven't tried it yet.
What's the Tangie hash like? I've never ordered from Dapper.

You'll definitely like the mimosa punch... glad you like the snowman, nice looking buds too. Melonade is quite hard hitting imo and tastes nicer than it smells. VGood value for money.
Again I think you'd like the tangie hash...lots of orangey terps going on and a nice mellow stone...good for listening to some music. Never had a problem with Dapper. Good stealth and comms, postage is usually 2-3days on the tracked but no sig ... altho I think some of the delay is RM last couple from GC have been 2 and 3 days....surprising how quickly we get used to super fast here In 16 hours deliveries

I hope I like the Mimosa. I've ordered extra as orange strains are pretty rare and tend to sell out so I thought I'd get a bit extra to stash.
GC have been 3 days from ordering for me too of late. Some of the cheapies have been amazing lately though.
I'll check out Dappers hash at some point. I've currently got the American LA Mousse as a daytime puff. It's not that strong but it's a nice smoke.

What did you think of the mimosa mate? Mines all gone now.
Yeah.not sure what's going on with RM at the mo....everything seems to take a minimum of 3 days no matter what postage I buy. So long as it keeps getting here that's all that counts.

I've not had it turn up yet. Ordered Mimosa & Forbidden Fruit on Sunday before bank holiday. Hopefully will be in the post today and with me soon.

I Made The Paranoia List But I Am Only Me!

I Made The Paranoia List But I Am Only Me!
- I Am Only Me
Not that it really needs addressing but as the same conspiracy is flying around LB again and I'm now on the list, I'd just like to state for the record that I am only me. I am not an alt for any vendor. I am just your basic old pothead looking to get stoned and interact with the LB community.
- The Paranoia List
I've no idea why I've made the paranoia list. It gets more ridiculous every time it's posted and the list of vendors and buyers is now so long it is fast reaching the point where there would only be one person on LB who is every vendor and every buyer. How any of this is meant to make sense is beyond me. Both me and the main vendor I order from are on the list.
I guess there's some irony around the fact the paranoia king has personally had more LB accounts than any of the people on their list.
- How to Report It
If you spot this stuff on LB you can open a message to Cleanup Borg and send them the link. Just go to chats, open a new chat and type 'clean' into the to box. You'll see the option to select the Cleanup Borg. The faster this nonsense is deleted the better for everyone here. We all have our part to play keeping this community rolling along and under the radar.
- Goodbye
I hope whoever keeps wasting their time creating endless accounts to post this nonsense seeks the help they clearly need. They should probably lay off the weed too.
- Thanks

I did notice your name on there...made me laugh tbh....the guy seriously needs to seek help tho.
Thanks for putting up the cleanup borg instructions, I didn't know how that worked. I will be doing that in future

I'm not quite sure how or why I've been included in the list. I posted just in case anyone had seen it as I don't want to be associated with all that. I figured more people would report it sooner if they knew how. On LB it's not always so clear how stuff works so hopefully it'll be helpful info. Possibly the only actual useful topic I've created to date!

Vacuum packing - does it change bud quality?

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

Its a bit of a shame and not really necessary but as you say the buds will bounce back quick and I don't think it harms them. Getting them straight into glass (preferably UV) quickly is important. I do like Bovedas packs for longer term storage, I even have some with humidity indicators lol!
I guessed it was most cost efficient stealth from a budget vendor and completely forgivable, as you say, the buds do recover. I'm just glad I'm not imagining it!
Yes, I've always been opposed to over sealing, whether it's shake or buds. Sealing it more will not make it smell any less. Certain vendors will also use a much cheaper plastic meaning it can stick to the bud too.
If you have good overall packaging, there's no need to strain the pack and if it really came to it, just seal one pack over another.
If you have good overall packaging, there's no need to strain the pack and if it really came to it, just seal one pack over another.
I guess cheaper vendors can't blow huge numbers on packing but need to meet a stealth requirement. I got a bit yesterday that was disappointing. Today it's fine. Certain vendors do it exceptionally well and everything arrives perfect and ready to roll. I guess it's all cost & speed. But at least other people agree so it's not me imagining it.
I think it doesn't change anything. It preserves it better tho. Think of all your food products that are vacuum sealed.
Buds exposed to air are constantly degrading slowly. Same as if you left some clear distillate opened exposed to air/oxigen it will turn dark yellow and brown eventually. Same will happen to buds even if they are in a jar. The thc oxidises, degrades and loses most of its terpenes.
Vacuming buds just ensures safe delivery and fresh product.
It is absolutely necessary for safety.
I prefer to be safe than sorry.

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

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

Happy E420ster Folks
- The Best 420 / Easter - Ever?
Hello folks of LB. Hope you are all having the best 420 Easter celebration there's ever been in the history of humankind. I'd like to wish you a Happy Easter or Happy 420 depending on which your religion is.
- Hoarding Weed
I've saved a bit of everything I've bought for a while so I've got loads of different bits to pick my way through over Easter. Added to that I've got extracts, various hash, rosin and all sorts in my stash.
- Kid in a Sweetshop
Basically I'm at a point where I've been ordering more than I actually smoke just because I wanted to try various stuff and I need to use up what I have and stop being Mr Greedy. Not least as I'm skint. I wonder if these two things are connected? It seems I am not fully past the kid in a sweetshop phase of LB membership.
- Fellow Potheads
Anyway I'd like to take a moment to reflect and to say I'm glad I found LB. First off, aside from a few nutters, you're a good bunch and I appreciate the interactions with my fellow potheads here. It's a real release from trudging through the monotonous drudgery of the real world each day. I've had lots of good advice and I've learned a lot. So thanks to the strong community of supportive LB folk.
- LB is a Winner
The obvious core amazing thing on LB though is being able to get decent great value weed delivered to my door. It's a world away from the procedure I used to go through.
- Pleasure from Pain
I only discovered LB while I was injured. That's a whole other story but it wasn't so easy to get about town. I really wanted someone to deliver me some weed so I spent the sofa time searching online until I found this place.
- The LB Feeling
I'm so glad I found LB. The products and service offered here is incredible. Often I order regular retail stuff coincidentally on same day as an LB order and almost every time the LB order beats the retail order to my door by days.
- It Blows My Mind
It's the selection of products that really blows my mind though. This has led me to buy and try all sorts of new stuff leading to my current overstocked situation. Which I'm not moaning about - it's much better than not having enough. As they say: weed will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no weed.
- Selections
Being able to carefully select what I like is such a luxury compared to my old late night scramble for whatever random bits matey had picked up. Yes, there's a lack of orange strains - I believe I've mentioned this before?! But overall there's such a great choice that I (almost) forgive the lack of some basic orange options. Especially nice is being able to order the hashes, extracts, RSO and D9 which are all luxury items to accompany and enhance my regular smoking but I love having them in my stash.
- I Am Lucky
I'm glad they built LB with a community feel too as it's nice to read through the recommendation topics by other people happy to share their thoughts and help guide others towards a great product. I feel lucky to be here.
- Thanks
Anyway I'll wrap up by saying thanks for reading this to anyone who still is. It's hard to imagine it's been informative but if it has that's a win for us all and if not I hope it's been entertaining at least. Thanks people. Enjoy the bank holidays.
Hello folks of LB. Hope you are all having the best 420 Easter celebration there's ever been in the history of humankind. I'd like to wish you a Happy Easter or Happy 420 depending on which your religion is.
- Hoarding Weed
I've saved a bit of everything I've bought for a while so I've got loads of different bits to pick my way through over Easter. Added to that I've got extracts, various hash, rosin and all sorts in my stash.
- Kid in a Sweetshop
Basically I'm at a point where I've been ordering more than I actually smoke just because I wanted to try various stuff and I need to use up what I have and stop being Mr Greedy. Not least as I'm skint. I wonder if these two things are connected? It seems I am not fully past the kid in a sweetshop phase of LB membership.
- Fellow Potheads
Anyway I'd like to take a moment to reflect and to say I'm glad I found LB. First off, aside from a few nutters, you're a good bunch and I appreciate the interactions with my fellow potheads here. It's a real release from trudging through the monotonous drudgery of the real world each day. I've had lots of good advice and I've learned a lot. So thanks to the strong community of supportive LB folk.
- LB is a Winner
The obvious core amazing thing on LB though is being able to get decent great value weed delivered to my door. It's a world away from the procedure I used to go through.
- Pleasure from Pain
I only discovered LB while I was injured. That's a whole other story but it wasn't so easy to get about town. I really wanted someone to deliver me some weed so I spent the sofa time searching online until I found this place.
- The LB Feeling
I'm so glad I found LB. The products and service offered here is incredible. Often I order regular retail stuff coincidentally on same day as an LB order and almost every time the LB order beats the retail order to my door by days.

I love LB! It's like a stoned facebook 🤣 interesting reads, interactions with other users. The occasional grab a brew beef on the topic page 👀 some absolutely wonderful people on here! Each brings their own uniqueness to the table!
Hope you have a wonderful easter/420!
P.s easter is technically the celebration of the one and only recorded zombie! 🤣👀🐣

Thanks man. Zombie Jesus made me laugh. Aye, LB is a great place to hang out with some interesting characters for sure. I've learned a lot and laughed a lot. It's part of my escape from the general pressure of regular life. Happy Easter / 420. I'm already working on getting slowly baked.
Happy E420ster All!
Hope the cookies went well for you Roo, that is the way dosage should be done!

I well overdid it yesterday. Was still completely spaced out this morning. I fully ticked the 420 box. Was a good practice for Star Wars day in a few weeks time. Happy E420ster!
Happy Easter 420. I was making cookies using an RSO syringe on Good Friday. Was aiming for a fair 250mg. The syringe stuck then suddenly unstuck under a wee bit of pressure and I unloaded the entire lot into warm butter. So I've had to make 4 cookies at about 250mg each. As we spoke before they don't store well. The last remaining cookie could be used to knock nails in. There's lots to be said for ordering in proper edibles man. I really should keep some of your stuff in my stash.
Happy Easter 420 to you too! That’s a proper Good Friday miracle—RSO cookie style. Sounds like the syringe had a mind of its own and just said, “Nah, you’re getting the whole gram, mate.” Four 250mg cookies is wild though—definitely a “clear your schedule” kind of bake. I feel you on the texture going from chewy to “construction-grade.” Honestly, that last cookie could probably survive a nuclear winter.
And yeah, it’s always handy having a stash of proper edibles on standby—measured, smooth, and no risk of accidental overkill. I’ve got you covered anytime you want to restock the munchies drawer.

I do definitely like the idea of edibles with a longer shelf life. You could paint this cookie up and make Captain America a new shield with it.
I've never had that happen with a syringe before. Must have been slightly stuck or fused where it'd been left a while. Then very suddenly unstuck.
What do you use for your edibles? It's feco isn't it?

Haha yes! Captain Canna-merica—defending the world one 250mg cookie at a time. Honestly though, it’s impressive it didn’t crumble under its own potency.
Sounds like that syringe had a crusty bit near the tip from sitting too long—bit of stickage, bit of pressure, and boom: butter bomb. Classic RSO drama.
Yeah, I usually use FECO for my infusions. It gives a stronger, more full-spectrum effect than distillate, and it’s a bit more predictable than straight-up RSO in terms of dosing and flavor. I’ll mix it into warm butter or coconut oil using a low-temp double boiler to make sure it blends evenly, then go from there depending on what I’m baking or making. Helps a lot with consistency and shelf life too.
I could sort you with a few long-lasting treats for the stash—stuff that keeps its potency and doesn’t end up doubling as home improvement gear.

Cannavengers would be the superhero film dreams are made from. Captain Cannamerica, The Hemp and Rizlaman save the world from tainted hash and low grade buds.
I definitely prefer full spectrum edibles to D9. Your Doritos were fantastic. I had a wee moment where I had to talk my brain round into functioning again as the strength surprised me. I do use D9 but usually only when I need to be up and at it the following day as it's an easier ride. RSO tends to hit harder and linger longer I find for me.
What do you recommend?

Totally feel you on the edibles front — my millions are strictly for the heavy hitters. The kind that sneak up like a friendly freight train. My gummies tend to be the slow realisers, you know the type — chill at first, then suddenly you're deep in conversation with your own thoughts about the texture of sound.
RSO is a beast, definitely has that "strap in, we're going for a ride" energy. D9’s nice for daytime — lighter on the mind and less couch-locky, especially when there's stuff to do. But yeah, when it’s time to fully tune out, full spec or RSO every time

A belated happy Easter Big fella! Hope you had a good one. It always makes me smile that over two thousand years after a man was nailed to a tree for saying how great it would be to be nice to each other for a change (to paraphrase the immortal words or the sadly all too mortal Douglas Adams), we celebrate this by worshipping a magical bunny who miraculously produces chocolate eggs!
Thanks man. This has reminded me that I should re-read all the DA stuff. It's been years. I've still got well used books on my shelf somewhere.
Happy Belated 420 one and all.
Good read sir...I've been on here 3 years and still feel like a kid in a sweet shop 😀...and there's just never enough coin to go round !
Like yourself, LB is a revelation to the old days ...chasing half way round the country for a dirty daughter. Now it's delivered to my door....brilliant!
The funny thing is , over the years 3 of my plugs have been postmen. 🙆♂️

Thanks man. Yeah there's so many things to try and I only have limited funding. LB requires a wee bit more planning ahead around bank hols like Easter or Xmas but is so much more convenient. I've had bud land within 18 hours. I've spent longer than that chasing matey round the corner in the past.
😅😅 been there man.
I have to limit my LB time else I'd be bankrupt! Everytime I come on I find something new I want.
I'm always amazed at how quickly some orders get delivered, ive had similar experience to youself...even deliveries on a Sunday!
LB has definitely been liberating

LB has definitely been liberating
The Sunday deliveries were an eye opener for me too. I didn't even know they worked on a Sunday. As payday comes round I usually have a cart full and have to delete three quarters of it. My eyes are bigger than my wallet.
🤣🤣🤣I've taken to not adding things to my cart until I have coin at the end of the month , like yourself. This way I have forgotten half of what I've seen and hence spend less of the hard earned. Doesn't always work tho....way over spent this last month 🤦
Having to order in advance tends to make me overestimate what I really need. Especially when we have bank holidays. I don't want to get caught short. I'm not quite as bad as when I first joined though - I'll buy one of them, and one of them, and two of those, and woah, not seen that for years - one of them.. etc.
That was my problem this month....didn't factor in easter!
My other short fall is bargains...can't resist. Talking of bargains, have you tried GC's Snowman og....bloody banging old school skunky high.
There you go $55 a daughter... bargain

Aye, I can't resist a bargain. I've not had the snowman but I've had some bloody lovely bits from the GC 55 dollar range. Had Pink Certz smalls in my last order and that was phenomenally good for the price. I'll not be ordering again til month end though. Waiting on payday. in theory anyway.
Agreed the $55 range are banging...missed the Pink Certz tho...it wasn't around long. Hopefully there will be some snowman around when you next order...I highly recommend it
I think the Pink was probably end of bag sale so limited amounts. If GC still has the Snowman I'll definitely order it to see if I end up walking in the air and get to see Santa.

Hopefully that works. A BigRoo inspired edible... looks killer tbf. Domutwo I think is the guy who invented it

I found it. Has made my day. Thanks for flagging it up to me.
No worries. It made me chuckle . I might have worked it back in the day but not now. I'd be asleep on the sofa with the Mrs moaning I'm doing to much 🙆♂️
Great info!
I really enjoyed the Banana Runtz from TGT, and I'm looking forward to getting some more this Friday. The flavour is so moreish and it vapes beautifully and smooth.
I'm also looking to try some products from The Good Stuff. Particularly, the Pineapple Frozen or the Sour Diesel x Purple Punch.
There is also the Fruit 3x Filtered from Babstar
https://littlebiggy.net/link/tyj69i
and the Apple Runtz from Dr Green Thumb
https://littlebiggy.net/item/kL32tcaauSJqM8U2pttCd1JQ/view/p
I wonder if you have any experience with these sellers or products.
Long live LB ✊

The hash from the good stuff is amazing. The pineapple frozen is lovely stuff. However the last two orders I had from TGS were wrong and it took ages to get the right products through the post. So, the hash is amongst the best on LB but the service not always as good. Maybe they've got it running better now so might be worth looking through the recent reviews to see how many days it's taking for orders.
I've not ordered from Babbstar or Green thumb but I'd expect you'll get something decent there.

420 Promos Are Live On LB But What is 420 All About?

420 Promos Are Live On LB But What is 420 All About?
- Surely Star Wars Day is the Big One?
For me, my big stoner day is usually Star Wars day on May 5th. It's the perfect day for me to get fully spaced and I fully recommend the experience. This year it's a Sunday before a bank holiday. The perfect year to start.
- 420 Growing
I see that 420 has grown year on year both in scale and culture. Many vendors cite 420 in their names and people are gearing up for it here so I thought it might be fun to explore it as I don't actually know that much about it. Perhaps I could use it as a practice run for May 5th.
- 420 Origin Story
A small amount of 'research' online suggests that it started when a small group of teenagers in California (of course) during the 70s would go in search of a rumoured abandoned cannabis grow after school each day. They'd meet at 4.20pm. I suppose if digital watches had been popular earlier then we might now be calling it 16:20. Anyway 420 became their slang for the weed search and then afterwards for weed in general. I've no idea if they ever found that grow but something else grew from their slang.
- It's Not What You Know But Who
One of the group was friends with someone connected to the band The Grateful Dead. They're a fantastic band of stoners if you've not checked them out; very spangly guitars; Friend of the Devil is a brilliantly written song.
The Grateful Dead followers were referred to as Deadheads and they picked up the 420 slang for weed and spread it amongst other potheads.
It's a beautifully simple origin of something now set solidly in the calendar as a cannabis celebration.
- The First 420
The first 420 celebration was in the early 1990s in - guess where - yup - California. The 20th April has been chosen for 420 as Americans write dates the wrong way round like 4/20.
- Should We Make It British?
I suppose we should really call the British version 204 to be true to ourselves. The rapper Fifty Cent should probably also be called Thirty Seven Pence over here - or I suppose Zero Point Zero Zero Zero Zero Zero Five Eight on LB. This is why no one puts me in charge of anything. Where was I....
- So what's on offer for 420 (UK 204) on LB?
I've noted a few 420 promos launching in the last week or so hence writing this topic.
- Bargain Extracts
First up we have a bargain crumble from Ganja. $45 for 3.5g is a bargain extract. The reviews look good. It looks like a good deal to me. I've never ordered from Ganja so can't comment on them as a vendor.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/7Tfs4u
- Bargain Distillate
Taking 420 very seriously Ganja have another promo live on their distillate. This one must be one of the biggest bargains on LB as they have 10ml for just $45. That's like $4.50 per 1ml for anyone really bad at maths. That's a fantastic deal if the distillate is good and clean. Has anyone ordered this?
https://littlebiggy.net/link/AEgde9
- Bargain Trainwreck Weed
Next up we have a promo from a new vendor looking to make a mark for 420. Herb has some Trainwreck at just $25 per 3.5g. Trainwreck is an old school favourite that crops up in the genetics all sorts of lovely strains. It's a solid choice for a 420 celebration. I've not used Herb before and it's rare that I'll use newer vendors but the bargain is there should you choose it.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/DGnUR8
- Bargain Price Edibles
Following this we have a deal on some brilliantly named edibles from SilentHippoIV. Family High, a play on the popular cartoon name, are currently being sold at $45 for two packs (1200mg) plus a bonus sweet all to set us up for 420. This is another vendor I've not personally used before but the reviews look good. Always do your own due diligence though folks.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/rvuLLx
- Bargain All-in Bundle
And the final deal I've found comes from the lovely folks at Cannabis Cannibals and it's 420 bundles so you've everything you need for your stoner session in one pack. This is the only listing here that's not $45 with the bundles ranging from $80 - $360 with a mix of ready rolls, hash and edibles. Nice work CC.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/Qrmykf
- Get Involved in 420
I'm sure loads more deals will go live after I post this topic and I expect I've missed some out because I'm a lazy stoner. That being so please post links up in the comments to any 420 specific deals that you see to share them with me and the LB community.
- What Are You Doing For 420?
As always thanks for reading my topic, I hope it was informative and if not I hope it was entertaining at least. Please upvote this if you like this content and get involved in the comments as it helps to share it on LB.

This topic got me thinking.
Is 420 the only day celebrating a medicine/drug? It would make it just a little more special :)

I don't know but it's likely it is. I'll take it. Hard to imagine coke day or smack day being able to sail the same fine line between popular tolerance and illegality.
I think it was a year ago I recieved my 4oz order from Thai lands. The boofscotti. Absolute bargain for 4 oz and so glad it turned up. Best 420 ever. This year I've been done out of $160 buy a new vendor currently only got a couple of Gs of radars mix bucket left and praying the local pulls through with some 10/10 wedding cake 🤣. Swings and roundabouts I guess 😬
I was always tempted by Thai lands but I've never done an import buy before. I've read on here your 160 is to do with one of the vendors I've linked. I apologise about that mate. I looked at the product and reviews when doing this topic but didn't check out the vendors thoroughly to see they were involved in a spat. I just saw they were new. Did you get a dispute through okay?
Hey BigRoo, I have heard a few origin stories over the years but that one always persists. If you haven't seen it Long Strange Trip is a Grateful Dead documentary which is a really good watch and shows how their fans were such a big community.
I think my 420 treat budget will be going to RealD this year, the only offers I have been tempted by and you missed them out so I added a link. I haven't bought from them before but that Orange Canoli has been on my wanted list for a while now🧡
4/20 is Easter Sunday 🐣 so plenty of chocolate eggs to munch on but don't forget the bank holidays.💚

I'll check out the documentary. I think I've seen a clip as the Grateful Dead tour bus driver was Neal Cassidy who Jack Kerouac based the character of Dean Moriarty on in the novel On The Road.
I just checked out Real D. They've got their static on offer too. I didn't see this as it's not listed as 420 specific. Real D are highly regarded and I've ordered from them a while ago myself so hard to imagine you'll have any issues there.

Yeah I am tempted by the static too, I think the offer was posted on the wall last week. I have no concerns about ordering off them, I think it has just always been above budget, but this is a special occasion😂
It's a great price for a static hash. I'm pretty tempted myself. It's highly rated over a long period of time. I need to put an order through today for some bits n bobs for the weekend. I'll probably just get weed though.
I may be wrong but i am fairly sure the 420 thing started from a legislative effort in the 90's called "proposition 420" and all other 420 related things, like the date, 420 basically becoming slang for weed etc spawned from that
That's what I'd expected to find when I started researching it but the 420 name is much older than that. The story presented here has been in the Huffington Post and also in High Times. There's also interviews online with members of the group who started it.
I'd heard something totally different years ago and that's what I had in mind when I searched for it. The story presented here is referenced and published in the news. Of course that doesn't make it true but I did check sources to try to be factual and this seems the most likely to be correct - I think. Thanks man.

La Mousse Vs L.A. Mousse. International Hash Challenge

La Mousse Vs L.A. Mousse. International Hash Challenge
- Mousse Challenge -
When I saw that Green Cat had both the Moroccan La Mousse and the American L.A. Mousse I thought it'd be an interesting comparison to pitch them against each other and see what the differences were.
- Moroccan Roll -
La Mousse:
https://littlebiggy.net/link/3azIcS
We're going to start with the Moroccan La Mousse. This type of hash is super popular these days. I've had it a few times elsewhere and it's usually a mild hash that's very crumbly and dry.
So the first thing with the GC Moroccan La Mousse is that it's not quite like that. It's more solid and it doesn't touch crumble the way I've known La Mousse to usually. It seems oilier too.
- Internet Research -
Yes, I'm using the term 'research' very loosely but looking online there's a few different methods of creating a La Mousse as it's either dry sifted or ice water extracted before being dried and whipped into a crumbly texture. This hash has come out more solid than I've had with previous la mousse. I would be happy to learn more about this from any hash heads out there.
- Smoking La Mousse -
It's a nice hash to smoke with some thick hashy clouds forming on each puff. It's got that traditional Moroccan spiced flavour in there but is a fresher smoke than something like an old rocky. It's smooth to smoke too with no cheese grater throat going on.
As a cheeky daytime hash this is spot on. I'm glad I bought it. In a blind test I'd guess this as a commercial Moroccan hash from that expected spice note, possibly even from the smell of it burning before I even took a drag, but it's still a pretty nice hash with an easy stone that demands little from you.
- From The Land of the Free -
So the big question I had is did the Americans take this hash staple and improve it?
Los Angeles Mousse (L.A. Mousse)
https://littlebiggy.net/link/fBdJSp
I've no idea how Green Cat packed the American L.A. Mousse and got it to me in mostly one piece. Captain Kirk would genuinely have had trouble beaming it somewhere and landing it there in one piece. It is a testament to the care GC must take. It disintegrated as soon as I touched it. Touch crumble is an understatement for this hash. It's more like the consistency of yesterday's sand castle. That does make it awkward to handle but simple to use. I have the Italian Ice variant of the L.A. Mousse.
- Fresh Smelling -
When you roll with it it leaves you with slightly sticky fingers and a very fresh cannabis smell. It's not so much like the spiced piney dry hash smell of the Moroccan La Mousse and has retained more of a fresh floral profile. That doesn't follow through as much on taste as you'd hope but it is there and it's a smooth and fresh hash for sure. I'm enjoying smoking it. I'm getting nice lightly flavoured clouds of smooth fresh smoke. It's not as strong tasting as the Moroccan nor as floral as the smell first teases it might be but I'm enjoying it more I think.
- Power and Strength -
Neither of the hashes are desperately strong for me as you'd expect from a commercial grade. It is probably the Moroccan that wins on both strength and flavour but it leans more on the traditional hash spice taste and heady stone. I think because of that I'm favouring the American version as a daytime puff. There's just something very fresh and clean about smoking it that I seem to enjoy more and it eases into a gentle stone.
- How Does it Compare to a Triple Filtered Hash? -
Banana Runtz Triple Filtered Hash:
https://littlebiggy.net/link/Prui70
Let's chuck a curve ball in and compare both to a triple filter hash also from Green Cat as I happen to have some. I thought that despite it being a bit more expensive that'd it'd be a good fit for this review. I've had a few triple filtered hashes that would have been a decent comparison to the Moroccan La Mousse I have here. However, typically for Green Cat, this 3x filter hash is loads nicer than I expected it to be.
- Mmmmm... Gassy -
This has smells of gassy fresh resin and pleasantly squidges into fluffy pieces as you crumble it. The smell is one I know but I can't place it. I think it might touch on an original kush smell. It's zesty but not my favourite sort of orange. Perhaps it's the banana smell in there. It's nice and fruit-fresh though like an extract smell but not at that hyper strength level.
- Flavour -
Flavour-wise it's well ahead of either Mousse and the same goes for its strength which is an easier stone than smoking weed but still provides a solid hit. The smoke is thick and oily. This hash is much nicer and much fresher than I expected.
Much like the American L.A. Mousse there's a lack of the typical old spiced hash flavour in lieu of something much fresher but with this it's much more so.
- I Am Surprised -
I'm genuinely surprised by this hash. It's not that it's the best hash I've ever had. But it's so much nicer and fresher than any of the triple filters I've had before I'm questioning if they were even genuine. The stone from this too is a decent level and a notch above either Mousse. I actually regret introducing it into this topic and the point I thought I was going to make about it having similar flavour traits to the Moroccan La Mousse has fallen apart instantly. It doesn't in any way.
- So Which La Mousse is Best? -
If I was to buy a Mousse again, of the two here, I'd buy the American L.A.
If flavour and strength were plotted onto a graph this decision may not make sense on paper but I know that given those two I currently reach for the L.A. Maybe it's a novelty value. I expect fans of the original rocky / soap strains will like the old spice of the Moroccan and tell me how wrong I am.
- However -
Where my hash money will actually be going is on the triple filtered banana runtz as it's a really bloody nice hash and has completely surprised me. I want more of it. It costs more than the Mousse but is worth it.

I've no idea quite what the video is showing. The American LA Mousse is a pretty nice smoke though.
I couldn't quite grasp what was going on. Like I couldn't watch that and go and make la mousse hash. It wasn't like 1. Grow plants. 2. Cut plants. 3... Etc... it looked like they were mixing up some weird stuff but without explanation I don't know what it was or why. I'll look into it some more when I get some down time.
Thanks for this good read
Was going to try some of the American stuff but you’ve just convinced me otherwise. Will stop being so tight and get something with a bit more power

I'd have the American again but only as a chilled daytime smoke I suspect. Much like the PK black I've got stashed it'll come out from time to time. For me it's not going to fill my full stoned requirements. But that's also true of pretty much every other commercial hash I've tried too. It depends how much money you want to spend but there's a hash at pretty much every price point on LB - and some of them are crazy strong.
Can u mention some crazy strong hash ?? When I see the prices for some hash here what the f happened..? Green Cat prices are ok..but I'm still had not tried a hash from here better in effects on myself than El chapo black hash that radar breeder had in year 2019. over priced expensive hash gives u nothing but a feeling of wanting more plus tolerance grows with every use .. so not recommended unless u like the addiction feeling in your chest.. Tropicana la mousse good hash and strong, cheesecake mild but super relaxing and just ordered Italian ice will see how is that... But the main problem of all hashish are the strains that people create and what they create is same genetics all too many times crossed... Bless
Some of the hashes like wpff, some statics, stuff like the Barz LA or cold cured jungle boys are crazy strong compared to a commercial hash. Stuff like the Piatella is crazy priced too. I quite like a fancy hash as a top up smoke from time to time though.

"We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars" (Oscar Wilde)
Something I find oddly reassuring is looking at the items wall. Perhaps it's like gazing up at the stars. Staring into endless infinity of space peppered with the light from stars that spent millions of years travelling before meeting our eyes. It tightly frames our little place in the universe in a reassuringly small but optimistic way.
Looking at the thousand plus products on the LB items wall reassures me similarly that I'm just a tiny part of a massive overall picture and as a result of the scale of it all, I'm unlikely to run out of weed or hash. It's where I find an element of peace of mind in my life. My LB zen.
- Wall Stalker -
I'm often browsing the wall, wondering if certain products or strains are available. I routinely check for orange strains of course and I'm routinely disappointed by the (lack of) results but this isn't yet another orange rant so I won't jump down that rabbit hole.
I also like to check for certain oldies like White Widow or Durban Poison or just cruise around seeing what's what.
I've watched with keen interest as a very small number of products seem to hold the top spot as I routinely hit the items wall.
- First Up -
When I joined it was the static hash listing by Real D in our consistent top spot. I've not had this hash yet but nearly bought it a couple of times when they had an offer on. Real D are a solid vendor although I've not ordered there for ages. The hash flavours have changed slightly but I remember the Blue Dream being available and I've always fancied it even when the orange variants are on offer.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/JX9Q0Q
- Another Winner -
I can't remember what exactly replaced Real D but I remember for some time The Spacemen held the top spot with their bargain listing. I've seen all sorts of lovely looking bargain bits fly through that post over time. But again I've not ordered from their top listing although The Spacemen also provide a great service with loads of great quality bits.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/P9pt1M
- Most Recent Top Spot -
It seems there is another consistent winner recently as it's been all about Don Loco and their Top Shelf listing taking the top spot on LB. And once again I can't comment as I've not only not ordered this number one wall product, I've never ordered anything from Don Loco. Although they seem a good sort by reputation and often have bits in that I quite fancy.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/OUvkd2
- Conclusions -
I'm not sure what conclusions to draw from this but it's kind of odd that I've not ordered any top spot product. It's also interesting that they're all multi variant listings that remain in place with just the product details changing. Perhaps the algorithm here loves a long term listing over a freshie. And perhaps we buyers do too as I assume there's some logic to how it all works.
- Top of The Buds -
Have you had any of the top product listings? Do you see the wall like a 'Top of the Buds' kind of pop chart?
Can we get someone to smoke through the top 40 products on a Sunday evening?
Man that's an entertaining show waiting to happen. I'd like to see someone reviewing Don Locos top shelf after 17 other types of bud, 12 different hashes, 7 vape pens and 3 lots of edibles. That's a weekly show we'd all be down with surely.
Cannabis curation is something that interests me greatly since joining LB. Maybe the top ten is more realistic to do?

As I like to drone-on about "buying the seller", I only use the Wall if I need to search for something specific.
I suppose it would be nice to see more variety, but given my approach to buying, I doubt it would influence purchases.
Given the recent doxings and related hoo-ha, I'm even less likely to be buying from (and therefore giving my details to) anyone new.

I see your point and I'm very much the same. I mostly stick to a small number of vendors. However certain products like orange bud will get me to roll the dice. Although I still look for a vendor that looks to meet my core criteria. I guess the newer you are the more influence the wall has though as you'll not have made those loyalty choices yet.
One every twelve minutes for eight hours straight. I'll watch. Someone needs to run betting on this.
Out of the 3 vendors you mentioned, ive ordered from 2 of them previously, Don Loco is a tip top vendor imho. No idea what influences why/who stays on the top of the wall though. After using the site for a while you know who you generally want to buy from; whether thats down to cost, quality or service. I guess new buyers are more likely to rely on the wall to guide their purchases. From what I can tell some vendors dont want to appear there and are happy with their customer base...
I generally use the same people but I guess the wall had an effect on who they were to begin with. I still routinely scroll it though just to see what's new. It'd be handy for me if I could set up alerts for certain strains.
Hey Bigroooo,
It’s great to see you rallying round the community getting people together to discuss our shared passion for MaryJane, talking bollocks and tunnock’s tea cakes.
I’ve also wondered how the items/topics wall works. I assumed it was an algorithm, but it seems to be the same for everyone so maybe theres some borgs in the background manually hiding topics and moving things around on the wall? Surely not, not in 2025. Maybe it’s linked to reputation? Interaction? God knows.
I had an 1/8 of the lemon cherry gelato from the good DonLoco, top vendor, great stealth. The bud was nice and really strong but it wasn’t my cup of tea, the terps were a bit sickly for me. For others i’m sure it would have been a 10/10, and you can’t argue with the price!
I’m taking a bit of a T break atm, so perusing the items wall and filling a cart full of delicious product is as close to a high as I can get. I’m holding out for 420 deals, think i’m gunna treat myself to some top end hash when the time comes.

Thanks man. I've no idea how the algo works but I'd assumed some measure of popularity would be involved. Perhaps combined with reputation. I'm guessing there's some logic behind it anyway.
T break is sensible. I usually only have breaks when I'm ill but generally appreciate it all the more for a bit of time off. I should do it more.
I've never done a 420. On star wars day I went to pick up some rolling papers at the shop last year and the fella said he'd already sold two boxes and asked me what's going on. That's my spaced out day - and apparently many others too.

Perfect. No early Monday limiting my behaviour. I'm looking forward to it already. Might buy something special for it.
Hey BigRoo, great read mate.
The item wall seemed like a wonderland to get lost in when I first found this place
When I look at it now I usually use keywords to find an item or vendor, or scroll way down and work my way back up. I just wish it had a filter tab to narrow the range of items/vendors.
I have noticed that if a topic on an item is getting a lot of chatter and upvotes it flies up the item wall.
If a vendor puts a competition on an item and the topic gets attention it has a positive impact on the item. If the competition can't be won easily and keeps rolling on the algorithm sees it as interest and it seems to boost the item.
Keep up the good work 💚

I still routinely scroll the wall to see what's what although generally I'm looking for specifics to order. Am with you on the filter - that'd be bloody useful at narrowing results. As would having a favourite vendors list or a save for later option.
Someone posted a link elsewhere in this topic to the plus / minus effect of different types of vendor posts. It's interesting what LB likes / dislikes.
Thanks man.

In your attached link it states:
Each commercial topic remains on the wonderwall for 3 days +/-
-2 days if gross or cheesy
Gross or cheesy?
Now that's open to a wide degree of interpretation! So, for instance, don't mention The Orange Fart or Lone Skum. 😁

Lovely post dude!
I started off with The Spacemen as a new biggy. Then went with TGD and Radar as my main for a while.
Kinda stepped away from TGD and TSM. Purely for me because after getting my buys up I felt more confident expanding to some other vendors. The buds I god from both TSM AND TGD were always decent, but after shopping around a bit I mean no disrespect by it at all, I started to prefer vendors with smaller stocks, bit like going from tesco to the local farm shop to me. (I repeat, though the buds i had from them were always good!)
These days, I mostly stick to Yourmumshouse. I adore their UK offerings of bud, some real bangers for 160ozs is a hard deal to turn away (The dia runtz, Skywalker, Biscotti were my favs so far, the OG kush was close behind). If I see Franz's BSS I'll shit my pants and make sure il get some of that whenever I can, I only had the one batch which was the one people said wasn't as good and I really loved the flavour, so any new batches are instantly in my cart. Then I don't use them as much anymore but Radar Breeder are always someone I sneak back to sometimes. Always had a fantastic experience, great comms and the budget offerings are still as much as a good smoke as the cali ones. (The small buds/shake listing is also one of my favs on biggy)
I don't really ever see YMH on the main page, which is wild. Franz's edibles I see quite often though!
I do try and avoid new vendors though, just purely for the worry of doxxing and/or
a faff honestly. I would love to support some new guys that come in with good looking offerings, I just have a horrid fear of being burnt and disputes going wrong lol.
I started off with The Spacemen as a new biggy. Then went with TGD and Radar as my main for a while.
Kinda stepped away from TGD and TSM. Purely for me because after getting my buys up I felt more confident expanding to some other vendors. The buds I god from both TSM AND TGD were always decent, but after shopping around a bit I mean no disrespect by it at all, I started to prefer vendors with smaller stocks, bit like going from tesco to the local farm shop to me. (I repeat, though the buds i had from them were always good!)
These days, I mostly stick to Yourmumshouse. I adore their UK offerings of bud, some real bangers for 160ozs is a hard deal to turn away (The dia runtz, Skywalker, Biscotti were my favs so far, the OG kush was close behind). If I see Franz's BSS I'll shit my pants and make sure il get some of that whenever I can, I only had the one batch which was the one people said wasn't as good and I really loved the flavour, so any new batches are instantly in my cart. Then I don't use them as much anymore but Radar Breeder are always someone I sneak back to sometimes. Always had a fantastic experience, great comms and the budget offerings are still as much as a good smoke as the cali ones. (The small buds/shake listing is also one of my favs on biggy)
I don't really ever see YMH on the main page, which is wild. Franz's edibles I see quite often though!

I'm pretty sure I've seen Franz BSS recently on the wall. I'd heard good things about it but never ordered. Same for YMH but noted they had a great looking deal on. TSM have decent bits and good pricing. I mostly don't order there due to signed delivery only. Never ordered from TGD. I mostly avoid new vendors too. I did break this rule to try out TWOZ and the bud and service was great. They weren't exactly new by the time I ordered though. I've had a faff with some newbies so usually steer clear same as you.
Yeah I saw they just listed a new batch earlier, its already in my cart for payday early next week! They are the first vendor I have used that are grow to door. Heard great things about BB and DM for homegrown bits too which I don't think are on the wall or often.
I will say TWOZ have seemed to start off on the right foot and have had lots of good praise from the community. Have debated giving them a try but I just want another couple months safety net before I give em a go!

I've ordered from DM before and written a topic on it. Very good service and lovely weed. They're due to do their new listings later this month I believe. Guessing by what you like I'd expect DM to be a good fit. BB I don't know. KIG have some nice grows too that might be up your street. I think TWOZ are here to stay. They seem engaged with the community and cool headed. Service was good, weed was good. I think they'll likely build a solid reputation.
Do you always use the same vendors? I mostly stick to the same people but I like seeing what's about in case I might want to try something new.
I don't think there's any vendor who does all my bits n bobs as I order weed, RSO, D9, hash and extracts. But yours is probably the safer strategy and gets top marks for loyalty too.
This went straight out of date as Ganja now have a top performing crumble at a bargain 420 price. Gotta admit I'm tempted myself.

THC Cannabis Chocolate Easter Eggs?

THC Cannabis Chocolate Easter Eggs?
- Easter Edibles -
I saw some cannabis advent calendars around at Christmas and I wondered does anyone do Easter specific edibles like cannabis Easter eggs or chocolate bunnies or something? I'm not particularly after them, it was more a curiousity.
- Hash Eggs -
A search for Easter yields no results and a search for eggs shows just a couple of hash eggs on LB. I am actually curious about them, not least if they've been shaped as such for intimate transportation, but either way they're not Easter themed.
- Comparison to Supermarkets -
It's an interesting comparison, I guess, as the supermarkets have been hammering Easter treats non stop for weeks now with the novelty stuff flying off the shelves as we accumulate an oddly shaped chocolate stash.
The chocolate makers ovoidify and repackage their core products then sell them for more money than is usually possible. From a sellers point of view stuff like Easter is a boom time. But not so much here.
- Why Are We Different? -
Why don't we go nuts for novelty seasonal items here the way we do in other shops?
Do any of the edibles sellers have any plans to do Easter Eggs?

The Wizard of Oz Scooby Do'd Me
- It Started With Tropicana Cookies -
This story starts with an urge to buy Tropicana Cookies. Finally the relatively new vendor the wizard of Oz had a bud I simply couldn't resist ordering. With close relatives of orange bud via it's Tangie ancestry and Durban poison via the cookies, it seemed it might just sit exactly where I like my flavour profile. Added to the fact I've not had it before, I felt I needed to check it out. It takes a lot to draw me away from my favourite vendors but orange flavourings are like my kryptonite.
- The Wizard of Oz -
Twoz aren't exactly a new looking vendor now with hundreds of positive reviews and a menu with more different options than a subway sandwich but it was only a few months back they were heckling for their first sales. The list of products is growing impressively fast and I suspect they'll be a big go-to vendor on LB if they're not already.
- LB Fans -
They're very involved in the lb community and seem to largely set a good and positive tone with their contributions and interactions. It's the exact sort of level-headed personal quality that makes a vendor appealing to trade with.
- They Have My Order -
So I've put my order in and am now in the waiting phase. We've all been here. Our mind salivating at the potential delivery but simultaneously fearing the worst.
- Fast Delivery... But Not the World's Smartest Postie -
I didn't wait long. Delivered in one day. The postie left it outside so I can't tell you the exact time but it was within 24 hours. If there's a single occupation where you'd expect an employee to almost instinctively understand that something smaller than a letterbox can easily be posted, it'd be a postman. On this occasion it'd seem their spatial analysis failed them. Stealth was all good without detailing it for obvious reasons. Aside from the postman's decision making process, this is all going well so far.
- Unboxing -
That moment has arrived. We all love it. We all live it. Time to open my parcel. Will my dreams be met or my nightmare realised?
Upon opening the bag I have my order plus I have a free mystery gram folks. This topic was meant to be me reviewing the Tropicana Cookies but that's been pushed to one side and Scooby Do mode has been engaged. I have a mystery to solve here people. We could be going to a creepy abandoned fun fair. I don't know where the clues will lead but let's get this solved first.
- Mystery Bag -
The mystery bag is two small half g buds. One of them looks like it's got the foxtail trait. Both are compact and glistening. Cutting the vacuum bag open I'm immediately getting orange vibes. Twoz ran a post looking for sensible suggestions a while back. I flippantly suggested free orange bud with every order because I'm a stoner and I don't do sensible stuff that often. I'm getting a sense of being called out on that here. That's what this smell is. This vendor has been paying close attention. I have a stalker.
- Matching Profiles -
The obvious match from their menu is Miami. But the bud looks more like Neck Bones. That has diesel in its lineage which I think I'd pick out better by smell but the compactness and shape of the bud is a better visual match. As I write this I'm waiting to hear back what it was from Twoz. I'm betting on Miami but I genuinely don't know. It's a really lovely smoke and definitely has an orange twang from somewhere making me feeling confident on my bet but not a hundred percent. Their menu is big now. A lot can be ruled out but there's a few options might catch me out. It is of course an added bonus to my order no matter what it is.
- Lessons from Scooby Do -
I was meant to be writing about the Tropicana Cookies. But if there's one single thing that Scooby Do taught us as kids it's that human beings of any age simply cannot resist a mystery. I'm hoping Twoz reply to my message soon so I can get on with my life.
- Mystery Solved -
The culprit has been unmasked and true to the mystery genre my initial prediction was correct but with enough seeds of doubt cast that it was still a surprise to find out the answer for sure. It is the Miami. Twoz are fantastic at communication fortunately so this didn't drag on like a netflix drama and I knew my answer within the first episode. No cliff hangers. Arguably writing it on the bag with a Sharpie would also have solved this. I had fun though. I hope we all did.
- For the Doubters -
Anyone who doesn't believe this was the exact process here and I've added it for drama please feel free to message Twoz to confirm the story unfolded precisely as above. All my posts are written out as they happen. So what was I actually writing about?
- Finally the Cookies -
Tropicana Cookies. Here we go at last. I really should have started with this. You can smell the heritage in the bag but the Miami has already stolen the orange show.
I can taste the sweet Durban nature of the cookies and it's a nice smoke, with thick clouds and hints of old flavours. It's got a zest of old orange thickening up the sweetened cookie smoke with a citrus note which is a lovely mix. It's not drippingly orange like a mimosa nor as pronounced as the Miami but the hints are there. I definitely approve of the flavour but it's not on my orange list. It is a nice cookies variant and props up the sweet doughy flavour with a zesty overlay.
- Finally -
The bud I got weighed at 7.2g for a quarter and were all fair sized buds - plus I got a scooby surprise. At $60 a quarter it's hard to fault on quality or service. I expected good things from The Wizard of Oz and I'm glad that expectation was met.
- Thanks -
As always thanks for reading, I hope this topic has been informative and if not I hope it was entertaining in some way. I'm aiming to do a few reviews this month as I bought a few bits and bobs which I thought might be interesting to write up as I unpack them.

Great read BigRoo as always, and not to seem biased on this occasion!
It is always nice to hear great feedback, therefore I'd like to thank you for giving us a try 😊
As I’ve mentioned before, your positivity is a great addition to the LB community. We can only hope that LB continues to grow and improve with that same energy 🙌

Thanks man. Same to you. Not every vendor is able to keep cool and remain positive but those like you that do are much more appealing to trade with. I'm sure I'll be back in the future but right now I'm pretty much stocked til payday. Your service was bang on point from order to delivery. I'm sure you'll thrive here on LB.
Great read as always BigRoo. Have checked their menu several times but never committed....I feel i need to revisit it!
Is your postie a stoner🤭

Thanks man. My old postie was definitely a stoner. He'd sign packages for me and post them anyway. This newer one clearly never mastered the shape game as a baby. Fella needs training up.
I'm the same mate - seen many times on the wall but had never committed. Based on this this one order though all looks good. They tick all the boxes a good vendor should. The Miami is really decent quality and the cookies completely fair for the lower price. I expect these guys are here to stay.

😅😅 you'll have to do it without him realising....bit how women train us men!
All sounds good with the Wizard. They do have some interesting strains on their menu... neck bones, Tokyo something and a couple of others. The mix and match offers look good too. I will definitely have to give them a whirl in the near future

I fancy the neck bones too to see how diesely it is. I'm stocked til payday at the minute though and I've got a couple of hash reviews I'd like to do this week.
A great read, as always. Highlights a bugbear of mine with strains not being at least identified by initials on the bags.
Vendors: you may be only sending 1 thing, but you're sending it to stoners who may open 5 packages at once, then not realise what they've opened and from whom. Happened to me near the start of my journey on here, and I was much more methodical afterwards.

Thanks man. To be fair to the vendor, the strain I bought was print labelled and packed in a nice bag. It was only the freebie that was a mystery - and I genuinely wonder if it was off the back of my "free orange bud with every order" comment a while ago and this unlabeled bit was aimed specifically aimed at me due to that. Basically calling me out in the loveliest way possible. Or maybe they don't own a Sharpie.
Maybe it was all a test and in a short time I'll be invited to an exclusive and secret stoners club run by a multimillionaire with too much time on their hands and who gives free weed out, but only to those who can identify it from a scratch and sniff test. I've put a lot of time and money into educating myself up to cannabis bloodhound level. I believe it's about to pay off Mr Rux.

How Do You Write Reviews?

How Do You Write Reviews?
- Powerful Tool -
The review system on LB is one of the powerful tools LB gives us consumers. A bad product or vendor has a short life on LB because of the reviews and ratings system as well as being able to create topics like this. Its one of the ways in which vendors are held accountable for their products and services.
- Share Your Experience -
We have the power to share our product knowledge and experience of vendors to help steer other LB purchases. I've seen bad products removed pretty fast off the back of the community response. Equally I've seen people rush to buy vendor products driven by positive content here.
- No Guidelines -
However, there's not a set way to do reviews so we all make it up as we go along. This leaves a mixed quality and lots of discussions around what is correct.
I review the overall deal - product, value, stealth & service. I'm likely to give a ten assuming everything went well and the weed matches the photo and description as well as being good value for the price paid. I start dropping points off for poor quality, delays, mistakes etc.
How do you do yours?
- We Have a Voice -
Looking at new vendors as a way of estimating review rates, it looks like a fairly small number of people write reviews - maybe 25%. I'd be interested if anyone has any accurate numbers around this in case I've got it completely wrong. It's a shame though as in many aspects of life we don't have a voice. We do here.
- Mixed Quality -
While many reviews here are great and contribute to the lb community, there's some reviews which are not nearly as useful.
This is a discussion so please chime in if you believe I'm wrong about any of these or have something to add. I have rewritten the below reviews as examples of the bad review genre so as not to directly quote anyone's actual review. It's not a witch hunt. This isn't aimed at anyone personally but is a discussion about writing reviews that will benefit everyone.
- Review Examples That Could Improve -
Top of the list of course is:
"I haven't tried it yet. 10/10."
- Unless you're Nostradamus maybe wait til you do try it. It could be an 8 or lower by then. I've had weed that looked and smelled just right from my favourite vendors but was so-so to smoke. I've also had iffy batches of stuff I'd ordered previously. Proof is in the pudding. Also writing a review closes the dispute window so if the product has a problem you'll have to jump through more hoops to open a dispute after reviewing it.
Next are this type:
"Amazing. So stoned. Huge glistening purple buds. Overweight. Pure white smoke. Perfect oil ring. Probably the best weed I've ever had. And they sent me a freebie too. 6/10."
- I get it. You're difficult to please. High standards are good and you want to leave some ranking margin at the top for better stuff. Or maybe there was another issue like stealth or delivery time that you marked down from a ten. It'd be good to the reasoning for marking down here.
The one and done:
"1/10"
- If it's a 1 out of 10 we need to know why, especially on a product page of 10s. What went wrong for you - give us the heads up. Tell us your story.
That's also because of these:
"Terps and stone amazing. Incredible stuff. I'm ordering this again. 1/10"
- Clearly a mistake and likely a mix up on delivery time and rating or fat fingering the zero on a ten. I wonder how many one and done reviews had meant to leave it as a positive.
Expecting miracles:
"Ordered on Christmas eve next day delivery but it took 3 days to arrive. Weed was good though. 2/10"
- Set your expectations to realistic. The only person who delivers that fast at Christmas is Santa. And then only if you've been good. Have you? I fully understand the disappointment. Rolling papers at the ready and the postman walks straight past to your neighbours. We've all been there. At time of writing this, I am there now. But before you leave a low score do question, was this the vendors fault, or royal mail.
New vendor first reviews:
"Great. 7/10"
- You're the bold adventurer to roll the dice and place an order with a new vendor and we need to know more about how they operate. Stealth, delivery, product, communication. How did they do? Should we all drop everything and order here immediately? Spending a few mins here helps out the buyers and the vendor. Often new vendors have some great bargains but do we want to risk it - you know the answers.
On a multi product listing:
"It was amazing. 10/10"
- Which of the options did you buy? Often naming the product is unnecessary but on multi product or multi variant listings it's a useful habit that helps us know which are the good options and which to avoid - rather than blanketing multiple differing products with the same rating. Your 10/10 may have sold out days ago.
- My Ideal Review -
"[Product name] was a great example of the strain with strong [flavour] taste and strength. Big nugs. Perfectly cured. Thoughtful stealth and fast delivery. Vendor is awesome, I order here all the time. 10/10"
- Here we're ticking off the key points that make us trust the product listing and the vendor. Equally, if any of these points fall short then flag it up to the LB community. There's a thousand products here so give us a steer. If you read reviews to inform your own choices then please equally contribute by reviewing the products you buy. Your opinion counts.
- Negative Reviews -
Of course not all reviews are positive and where the value, weed, vendor, service or stealth is not up to scratch, that's the point where constructively explaining that to your fellow buyers in the reviews helps the whole community.
Negative reviews can have a powerful impact and help us make good choices about where to spend our coins. Give the vendors a chance to achieve their ten but if they're not up to the job in hand or you've had a terrible experience then sharing it helps us all.
- We Are Lucky -
Basically we're a bunch of lucky folk buying great quality cannabis products at decent prices with our payments protected by escrow.
Spending a few mins and doing our bit on the reviews helps the community thrive and the good products fly - as does creating or interacting with topics and recommendations. Equally steering us around poor service helps us avoid the problems you have had. It's these things that make LB more than just a marketplace but make it our community.
- Thanks -

- Set your expectations to realistic. The only person who delivers that fast at Christmas is Santa. And then only if you've been good. Have you? I fully understand the disappointment. Rolling papers at the ready and the postman walks straight past to your neighbours. We've all been there. At time of writing this, I am there now. But before you leave a low score do question, was this the vendors fault, or royal mail.
New vendor first reviews:
"Great. 7/10"
- You're the bold adventurer to roll the dice and place an order with a new vendor and we need to know more about how they operate. Stealth, delivery, product, communication. How did they do? Should we all drop everything and order here immediately? Spending a few mins here helps out the buyers and the vendor. Often new vendors have some great bargains but do we want to risk it - you know the answers.
On a multi product listing:
"It was amazing. 10/10"
- Which of the options did you buy? Often naming the product is unnecessary but on multi product or multi variant listings it's a useful habit that helps us know which are the good options and which to avoid - rather than blanketing multiple differing products with the same rating. Your 10/10 may have sold out days ago.
- My Ideal Review -
"[Product name] was a great example of the strain with strong [flavour] taste and strength. Big nugs. Perfectly cured. Thoughtful stealth and fast delivery. Vendor is awesome, I order here all the time. 10/10"
- Here we're ticking off the key points that make us trust the product listing and the vendor. Equally, if any of these points fall short then flag it up to the LB community. There's a thousand products here so give us a steer. If you read reviews to inform your own choices then please equally contribute by reviewing the products you buy. Your opinion counts.
- Negative Reviews -
Of course not all reviews are positive and where the value, weed, vendor, service or stealth is not up to scratch, that's the point where constructively explaining that to your fellow buyers in the reviews helps the whole community.
Negative reviews can have a powerful impact and help us make good choices about where to spend our coins. Give the vendors a chance to achieve their ten but if they're not up to the job in hand or you've had a terrible experience then sharing it helps us all.
- We Are Lucky -
Basically we're a bunch of lucky folk buying great quality cannabis products at decent prices with our payments protected by escrow.
Spending a few mins and doing our bit on the reviews helps the community thrive and the good products fly - as does creating or interacting with topics and recommendations. Equally steering us around poor service helps us avoid the problems you have had. It's these things that make LB more than just a marketplace but make it our community.
- Thanks -
As always thanks for reading my topic. I hope it was informative and if not I hope it was entertaining in some way. Please upvote this topic if you like reading this stuff as it really helps to share it and get involved in the comments to let us know how you do your reviews.
10/10 great read, will definitely read future topics👌
Good points well made as always mate I think you need to add a tip jar to your account🤑
For my reviews I will usually have a quick test when I get it and put a number score 10/10 if all is as advertised, and then I go back to add comments if I think it is worth mentioning.
If I am marking down for anything I will always put a comment but luckily I have very few bad experiences on here.
If there is an issue with the order but it is a genuine mistake and is dealt with in a decent manner I won't necessarily mark down but I will mention how it was handled in the review💚

That made me laugh mate. Nice work. Glad I got a ten! Maybe I should set a tip jar up. You're not the first person to ask me.
Completely agree with what you're saying about review stance. I've had a mistake rectified and still gave a 10 due to the way it was handled. I noted it in the review too. I think it's important to be fair. Some vendor services do slide over time though so it is worth flagging. A buyer who can see a row of problems in the reviews may choose to shop elsewhere.

I added a tip jar. If nothing else it's interesting to see the seller interface. I can't imagine anyone will use it to be honest but we'll see.
I am sure a few biggas will wanna pass you a joint mate you put the work in and keep the conversation going.
just to say i'm really keen to participate in this discussion (but i wont be around too much until the weekend).
much about the reviews system that i've been mulling over too...
personally i think it's busted and needs work (like how many buyers actually know that vendors don't get to see the usernames of their reviewers? almost nobody leaves negative reviews, which is a blight tbh, there are plenty of dodgy products which are nevertheless rated 10/10 with not a bad word said in reviews, and that harms customer confidence, or at least it does mine)
and although i fully subscribe to the idea that providing some kind of a rough format for people to follow, in order to best help them provide everyone with an illuminating review, i also wonder how many even have the time for that shit.
i feel like there's a few of us though that might aspire to provide helpful, comprehensive reviews, and so maybe we coalesce loosely - like a so-called coalition of the willing, to coin a fucking phrase lads.
i'd be interested either way to keep exploring the art of cannabis reviewing, because i think the zeitgeist too is kinda busted. one such reason being that there's rarely any affordance for the context surrounding the given experience of a product, which i feel should be given primacy, like a framing device for any review. e.g. i was exhausted at work but this buzzy little bud got me through the final hours, or i was so high after a night out i thought i'd never sleep but this hash sent me to fairyland, or i use this every day as it keeps my mood up, but prefer something more potent for evenings and weekends, etc. that way i know immediately which reviews are relevant to me.
anyway, it's very cool you made this thread. i've also been thinking about doing the same, because the review system as is just isn't producing the kind of value it should for it's users. it could be a goldmine.

To highlight your "context" comment, I have recently seen this review from GASSED's Edibles:
"1/10
Sorry but zero effect from this I tried 3 days in row today on empty stomach and nothing and me tolerance is low"
Now, Edibles are very contentious on LB but this sort of review doesn't help. These Edibles have a 9.9 rating from 2,270 reviews - so surely these DO contain THC? (I have personally sampled and, yes, they do.)
Has this reviewer had success with edibles in the past?
What is "low" tolerance for this person? And are we talking smoking or edible tolerance?
What time of day did they take them?
How high were they before taking the edible?
How much had they indulged in for the past few days?
If edibles usually work for them, was it a dodgy batch maybe? Have they been in touch with the vendor?
Maybe a fuller stomach, or at least having a fatty snack, would help kickstart the edible. I don't think gummies have any fat in them - not sure?
I know it is disappointing when a product doesn't work but after exploring all the avenues with the vendor if I was still to leave a bad review, I would make sure to give more details. Especially a 1/10 on a product that is rated highly.
You could say just ignore it but I am intrigued to know why such a low score, there may be a genuine gripe.
Even if there was an overhaul of the review system with lots of criteria to score, we still need written comprehensive information to explain those scores.

Hard to know what happened there. Perhaps it's one of the review scammers trying to leverage extras off the vendor "or else I won't change my 1/10 review". But then maybe it's genuine and there was a quality control issue. Working with the vendor is first base to solve it I'd recommend but maybe they dived straight for a 1/10 out of anger.
Hard for me to judge without seeing it or having tried the product. One of the strongest extracts I've had was from Gassed though so I'd be surprised if they did poor quality stuff.
I usually make my own cookies with mix of rso and D9. I eat them after dinner. That definitely works out pretty well for me. I do have a pack of the cannabis Doritos to try which is an interesting novelty.

The review system could do with some work. That's true of many reviews systems on other sites too. There's the technical headache of updating it in such a way to keep legacy ratings too. IE if you change a x/10 into a yes/no it's not obviously migratable for long term vendors to hold their rating.
I've not really thought hugely about context to be fair. I have a fairly high tolerance as I'm a long term pot head. So if it nails me, it'd blow a newbie or occasional user into space. I do try to add some details into my reviews although often when there's lots saying the same I'll keep it short.
Here, on LB, I feel that we can work as a community, support each other, and hold vendors to account for their products and service as well as helping the great products and vendor services reach a bigger audience.
I agree we could squeeze better value out of the systems we have in place here which is where this topic was born. I wondered if it was a me thing but it feels like it's a big subject. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts mate.

I’m just wondering - I’m sure there are valid reasons - but why are reviews anonymous? Start any subject matter in a Topic, not anonymous. Comment freely, not anonymous. Leave a review, and shhh, quiet, wasn’t me, hide my identity, the world falls apart if my username is attached…
Would it help with the integrity (or lack of) of the review if there was an option to show/hide username? By actually adding your username to a review you will be held more accountable. Anonymous reviews could then be taken with a pinch of salt? I dunno…

If reviews weren't anonymous they'd nearly all be 10/10. While I'd probably still have my say anyway (quote - "happy is he who passionately defends that which they believe in") a lot of people probably just want a quiet life and wouldn't want hassle with a vendor who has their address. The anonymous review allows someone to complain and walk off hassle free.
You can now click to see the ratio of the reviews people leave which I think is a cool feature. Probably my favourite part of the recent upgrade.

The current review system is far too broad to give anything more than a general idea of how you can expect things to go.
- How does "your" 7/10 compare to my 7/10? What does 7/10 even mean?
This could be drastically reduced (the majority of reviews are either 10/10 or 1/10). EG Would you buy this product again: y/n; would you buy from this vendor again: y/n.
- How many days... from when you ordered... from when you got the "sent" notification... from the next working day?
Given the different postal services available and the unreliability of all of them, perhaps more useful would be "dispatched on time?"
And then we have the issue of reviews being gamed (in both directions) and vendors issuing "sent" notifications at 2:00am on a Sunday morning...
Finally, even the best tools are useless if you don't know how or want to use them. 9/10 for +1,000 sales over four years, is quite different to 9/10 for ten sales over four months.
How many "scammed help!!!" threads do you read, check the vendor and conclude that no amount of reviews, ratings & red flags can help some people.

Love the suggestion of 'dispatched on time'. Its ideal for items checked in a post office. But with normal stamps and tracked24/48 put straight in the mailbox, hard to know when it was posted.
Though I do worry how many would rate correctly. Despite having a manifesto dictating when items are posted, every day I'll be asked when the item will be posted.

Being as a lot of people seem to think the "D" in "NDD" means delivery, you're probably right to be concerned.
I did see a recent post from TGT, who have created some sort of post-bot: they add details (bar code scanner perhaps), customer looks-up via post code.
But like you say, some services don't detail the date of dispatch, so that could still be gamed.
Hey-ho...

It's better than nothing and is useful despite the vagueness but I agree it could be tailored better. However what would happen to historical reviews if the system radically changed? If it changed from x/10 to yes/no how would a vendor hold their ratings? A tech team will have to merge fields that don't match. Approx 20 years ago eBay did this and just killed off ratings prior to their update as it was either a technical issue or they wanted a reset.
So to improve it would take some careful technical tiptoeing to not level vendors with a solid history and new vendors to the same rating.
I agree - buy the seller. It's why I tend to stick to the same people. That being said I've had half an order delivered almost two weeks ago and it's still not sorted out despite assurances from the seller. Will probably end up as my first dispute.

I didn't mean to suggest what we have is worthless, nor was I particularly advocating for change.
But I have gone-off on something of a rant...
And yes, "past performance..." etc etc.
I don't have your history, but to date (just ordered from TGD, so I think I'm safe) I've only had one deal I've been unhappy with and I didn't get ripped-off as such.
Curiously, that's the only buy I didn't review.

I've not ordered from TGD before but have noticed they have lots of quality looking stuff.
The reviews could use some work - as you correctly say, and I said something similar in the original piece - there's no exact guidelines. So it's down to interpretation. How they'd make a huge change on the format work technically though I don't know.
I always review my orders. Most are 10/10. But I've done a couple of well deserved low ratings before.

My comment about TGD was firmly tongue-in-cheek.
Having thought about it some more, I really can't think of an objectively good ratings system, perhaps because ratings are inherently subjective?
Ordinarily I review, but it was a slightly complicated situation to explain and in these situations I prefer to vote with my feet: "Money talks and mine just told you goodbye!"

You were probably along the right lines by simplifying it and making it specific to product / service / delivery. How they'd migrate the current ratings would be the question mark there. I suppose eventually instead of reading through ratings we'll just get an AI summary at the top which will highlight delivery or quality issues across all the reviews. Much as certain Google results already do. That's where we're headed I guess.
That’s a solid write up, and I agree with the points you’ve made. Reviews are one of the most powerful tools we have as a community, and the more detailed and accurate they are, the better they serve everyone buyers and vendors alike.
The examples you gave of weak reviews really highlight how much misinformation or missed opportunities exist in the review system. A simple rating with no context doesn’t help anyone, and reviews that are misleading (whether intentional or accidental) can cause unnecessary confusion.
I especially like your take on realistic expectations. People sometimes forget that external factors, like postal delays, aren’t the vendor’s fault, and it’s unfair to punish them for it. Similarly, a vague or overly harsh review without explanation can hurt a vendor who may have otherwise provided a great service.
Your “ideal review” template is a great example of what buyers should aim for detailed, balanced, and helpful. It’s also a reminder that we all benefit when the community actively participates in sharing honest and well-thought-out experiences.
Overall, great post.Thanks a lot Roo! Hopefully, more people take this approach, so reviews become more useful across the board.

I think it's important to be fair. A vendor can't ask more than that. I've given vendors a ten who messed my order up but subsequently rectified it. I've noted it in the review and in the days to delivery. I believe that's fair. I've given very few really low scores and each and every one was fully deserved by the seller.
It's particularly important to new vendors. If I gave a vendor with 20000 sales a 1/10 it'd barely be noticeable and would bury itself quickly anyway due to sales volume. A newer vendor trying to hit their first hundred sales would feel that. Now some new vendors may deserve the bad rating if they've not got it together yet of course but either way being fair is the way forward for the whole community.

Couldn't agree more BigRoo!
Reviews are a great way for the LB community to find the right products and vendor for them.
For vendors/customers, it can be a make or break, so it goes without saying that customers should always take care when writing them by covering the 3 points you mentioned, whether they be good or bad, constructive or just general criticism.
As always, the positivity you spill onto the LB community doesn't go unnoticed.

If you read reviews prior to purchase it's only fair to contribute back to that system. It's important to be fair to vendors but I write my reviews for other buyers. I've done very few low ratings. Each one was deserved though and explained so that other people on LB can make their own minds up. I believe that to be fair and that is all anyone can ask.
You've held a good rating over a growing number of sales now so must be doing something right. The reviews helps differentiate you from some other new vendors who've struggled to get to grips with vending here. That's useful knowledge to us as buyers.
Thanks man.

One of my pet peeves on multi-choice listing's is the lack of letting us know which one!
I try to be thorough with my reviews. I usually consume a blunt and then provide my review. For new vendors when I do branch out on my vendor list then I tend to comment on stealth and comms etc..
I leave more in detail reviews here than I have ever done on Amazon!
I do like leaving in detail reviews on trip advisor though 🤣🤣 can be quite fun if you're stoned to bone!
Big love Roo!

This is the way forward man. It'd be handy if lb tagged the option you chose on a multi listing. With new vendors I'm aware of the additional responsibility and I'll also mention more about the service than someone who's sent thousands of orders out.
I usually write the review as I first sample the product so I'm fair to it. I also try to make sure its my first of the day but that's not always possible. Either way I try to communicate the key points to lb buyers. On products with 1000s of reviews I tend to write less as it's not needed. I guess the core point is to leave the review you wish had been at the top of the page prior to you ordering it.

As always a well thought out, constructive and interesting post. I would have given it 10/10, but the internet is playing up here and the page took a while to load, so I'm afraid I can only give it an 8. If Virgin Media sort their act out I will of course consider revising my rating.
But seriously, you make some great points here. As a new vendor myself I know it takes a while to build up some reviews that will give more people confidence in your products and service, and that these reviews can be really important to getting business moving. Patience is the key here.
I also think it's interesting that people tend to leave either 1/10 or 10/10 and not much in-between, but I guess that's just human nature.
Also I know that vendors can interpret anything other than 10/10 as being a negative review. Whereas I would have thought that the whole point of having a one to ten rating system is to be able to add a bit of nuance, rather than just being either perfect or rubbish. So an 8/10 is still a really good result in my books, and not the disaster some think.
But you are right an honest review system is one of the things that makes LB a great place to be bothered a customer and a seller.
Oh and finally I always love the classic "The postman left the package behind the bin and I didn't find it for 2 days and then it was wet 1/10". Perhaps we should have a separate Royal Mail review section?

Hehehe. I really have just asked for the LB community to rate me haven't I?!
Most of my reviews are 10s now as I mostly stick to same vendors. But even my favourites slip up and I'll notch them down fairly in the reviews with an explanation so that my fellow stoners can make an informed choice. I've done very few low scores but each of them would have been thoroughly earned by the vendor in question.

Not read any of this yet 10/10.
I did read some of this vendor’s posts previously. They did not get me stoned and left black ink on my fingers afterwards with a harsh taste in my throat. But rather than take pictures to bolster my case it went straight IN THE BIN. Avoid this scam artist, l’m right, ignore the other 4,637 10/10 reviews…
😀😂🤪😁
Good read as always matey. My problem is trying to remember each nuance of the product whilst partaking, think I then have a really good detailed review to write but inevitably get too stoned and write: yeah all good 10/10.
I blame the products on here. They all seem to make me feel funny, like a drug or something…
Cheers :)

I import all my words direct from LA and test them at home in conversation before using them in a topic dude. They burn clean and bright. I also sent a batch of replacement words out to this reader folks. Other writers beware!!
Thanks man and I know what you mean about the reviews. Some sellers are at such a volume of sales it's hard to add something to the many already positives.
However, if you read reviews to help steer your purchases you gotta give back man. The yin and the Yang. Karma. The general balance of the universe. It all pivots on us giving what we hope to receive. Like at Christmas when Santa judges your worthiness.

Replacement words? Hah! I’ve read 50 books a day, from all over the world, for the past 92 years so I know what I’m talking about. This joker sent me some “top gear” turned out to be about Mats and Cats which sit upon them. Had better from my local poet, and that was generic Stephen King.

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.

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!

Could never have imagined the cannabis market to be the way it is now also. Youthful and comic

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

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.

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
Thank you for the read big man.

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.

Cleaning My Grinder: A Story With Questions
- The Dirty Grinder Problem -
My grinder is a few years old. It's a metal one that screws together in separate layers for grinding, ground, and kief. It has never been meaningfully cleaned. I've poked and chipped at it a bit when it got stuck. The kief catcher has been blocked for ages although I was never sure I wanted my kief caught in anything other than what I'm currently smoking in the first place. Its become more of a masher than a grinder as compacted dark resin coats much of its once sharp teeth.
- New Grinder Dreams -
I was thinking of buying a new grinder when I decided I should probably clean the current one up first to see how much that helped. One of the grinder teeth snapped off years ago and it actually really improves how the grinder works. That gap is where your bit of weed starts. If I made grinders I'd engineer a weed gap something like this in. If I bought a new grinder I'd be tempted to break a tooth off. I'm sure several people will tell me why I'm wrong about this but it's a hill I shall die on.
- I Need Alcohol -
So first thing I reached for was our good friend alcohol. That age old tale like it's the solution to all of life's problems - but it quickly became clear that poking a bit of alcohol around was inadequate for this.
Obviously more alcohol was needed. That age old tale...So the whole grinder went in for an iso bath. Cleaning it with a sacrificial toothbrush after a good soak brought it back to factory levels of cleanliness pretty quickly with all that compacted resin dissolved into the alcohol. But it had one flaw. It was now a super sticky solution. A film of glue-like stickiness had settled across every surface of the grinder. After you touched it, the same is true for you. We are back in sticky Spiderman fingers territory. More wiping with alcohol didn't seem to clean it so much as smear it onto more surfaces.
- Saving New York -
So before I started using my sticky fingers to climb buildings and save New York City from crime, I went for possibly not the best solution, but for the one within the easiest reach of my Spidey fingers. Cif cream cleaner.
- The Lemon Problem -
This dispersed the stickiness with ease using the same ex-toothbrush. I think it more thoroughly cleaned the grinder too. The problem now wasn't stickiness, it was lemonness. And not the nice lemonness one might have in their grinder. The bad lemonness that you don't want. It'd be like smoking a yellow block from a urinal if I put weed through it.
- The Wet Problem -
After some more rinsing and cleansing the problem was no longer lemonness. It was wetness. The kief mesh and the many nooks and crannies hide water away. This was a better problem to have but still a problem. After much careful patting and some hairdryering I decided some resting time was needed for full dryness.
- The Outcome -
A while later I tried it out and it's essentially like a new grinder. It twists super smoothly with ease, evenly grinding buds into useful little pieces and once more my kief is being caught.
- Kief or Thief -
Although I'm still questioning if saving kief is better than having it now. Is it robbing me under the guise of future reward? Like daylight savings when the clocks change back. We don't ever get an extra hour in bed. Merely what was once already ours has been returned. If someone stole a tenner out of your wallet in spring then gave it back to you in Autumn you would not thank them for it. So is it a kief catcher a kief thief? I'm intrigued to know people's thoughts on this one.
- New And Improved -
The grinder basically works like new but with the added toothless gap that seems to improve function for me anyway and feels like a design feature. It's my hill - my hill folks.
- Fresh and Clean -
It may not be completely radical news to many people out there but cleaning stuff makes it better. My grinds are now fresher than a brand new pair of underpants.
- Thanks -
As always thanks for reading, I hope it was informative and if not I hope it was entertaining in some way at least.
Please upvote the post of you like reading this stuff and get involved in the comments to let me know how or if you clean your grinder - or what the cool kids use to grind with these days - and whether it's a kief or thief device? Thanks.

I need to clean mine again.
I just stick it in a pot of water and boil it, everything basically falls off at that point!

I didn't think that would work as water never washes resin off your hands. Part of why I'd put it off for so long. Might try that first next time.
I keep it simple a cheap plastic grinder that comes out of the dishwasher completely pristine.
Reading this brought back memories using these hand grinders. My 2 cents is they are a great budget/starter solution but if you're a hardcore daily smoker like me take my advise and get a cheap ninja, nutribullet or kenwood blender for like 30 quid that comes with a smaller jug for nuts etc. Then take your daily buds (3-7g?) grind them for a second or 2 and you have your weed ground for the day just need to roll them. Do this and the walls of the jug will staticly attract and build up kief and every month or 2 you will harvest an oz or more kief that you can turn into hash or press the rosin from it.
The missing "stashed" kief is not noticeable in your joints as I'm sure you could tell by experience using a kief catcher grinder where you will lose plenty of it stuck to the teeth and the walls of it anyways.
So having an oz or so kief as a reward or cashback every month or so is 100% worth it when you light a fat one up boosted with your own hash or rosin!
Thank me later ;)

I tend to flick between different flavours all day so only grind one or two spliffs worth at a time. The last grinder I bought was actually downsized from previous so is the mini type I guess. I'm not at your level mate where you need industrial electrical hardware for your bud volumes!
I wouldn't call a kitchen blender industrial level hardware but even when I grind 1g I use that it just more convenient, same goes for having pre ground weed the kief is just a bonus really that builds up over time.
That's what I mean, I been there. I know what's it like to grind as you go. Done that for nearly 2 decades and I felt stupid when I started using the blender for not doing it sooner. Just saves me hand grinding everytime I want to roll a joint and having ground weed in a tupperware for a couple days is perfectly fine for me, I often had 3-4 flavours pre ground but these days I only have 1 or sometimes 2 strains pre ground for the day.
I can still remember my mate turning up with the first grinder I'd seen years ago. Thought it was stupid and unnecessary at first glance. About 3 minutes later after seeing it used, "can I borrow your grinder mate" I still like a grind and sniff as part of my rolling ritual. Might be an interesting topic to discuss rolling rituals - yours has clearly evolved. One of my mates always rolls 3 at once for example, lights one and pockets the other two for later.
Yeah I also do that often, having a few pre rolled if I'm out for a while or just a couple in advance ready to go while busy. Call it lazy or convenient I guess to me it just became to repetative grinding each joint one at a time.
I never think that far ahead. I'm wondering now if I rolled a batch up if it'd be convenient and save time or I'd just blitz through weed much quicker by chaining my rolls.
Just having them pre ground already saves me a lot of time.
The rolling part only takes few seconds but having them ready to go certainly helps.

Great read, as usual mate. Iso should work if you cover it and leave it for ages. Mine looked like swamp water when I last tried this. Felt like I was wasting all the goodness though, so my mate suggested boiling it in milk next time. Yeah, don't do that. What a mess, and I threw the pan away. That's probably more a me issue and not paying attention. The grinder, however was fine, eventually.
I've had (and am having) very solid service from a Herb Ripper grinder, which is available in both kief stealing and non varieties. I went with the stealing version and it blocked up. It always blocks up.

I've decided when I do finally get another grinder it'll be a no kief thief. It's not just a choice but a lifestyle. Life on the edge man. No kief reserves. That's like a pension scheme for trichomes. All or nothing grinding is the way forward.
I go for the cheap plastic grinders buy 4 for £5 off amazon and just bin them when they are too gunked up😬.
I use a keif box with a 100ų screen for all of my bud so it collects nice clean keif

I used to get The Original Grinder Company ones out the local shop. Were a few quid but nice to know the convenience store understands its customer base by getting in quality plastic grinders. They sell blunt papers too. I don't know what they are but have seen the crazy kids buying them. Since then though I've aimed to use as little plastic as possible. I figured a metal grinder would last a long time and it's fully recyclable once I'm done. It has lasted ages and now clean is really like new. I'll buy another one but will choose more carefully next time now I know the level of time commitment I'm making.
I remember every so often I'd have a kief smoke before it blocked. It'd be strong as was such a blend of bits and bobs. But each saved bit and each saved bob must be robbed from me now. I was considering not getting the same thing on my next grinder.

Love reading your stuff man, please keep it up, and it was on your reco that I picked GreenCat for my first purchase - no regrets whatsoever. So thank you for that.
To the matter at hand though, you've channeled one of my secret penchants - that for cleaning. I believe a clean is the cheapest repair. And for anything involving organic compounds such as food and the good bud, I have to say, anything inorganic is just, well, grinding me up the wrong way, much like a bad bud broaching device, brother.
So, can I suggest following an organic cleansing ritual for your toothless wonder: firstly, splash liberally or dunk shallowly in some (white) vinegar and then sprinkle with some bicarb (not baking soda) and watch the fizzy, oooh. This should cut through some of the resin, but maybe not all cos it is a sticky goo. Maybe have another go, cos yeah, bicarb fizzy cool. Not once, not twice, but trichome's the charm.
Then, you do need some natural acid to cut a little further: slishe a lemon in two, and press and grind. I wonder if this could also inadvertently be the start of some wonderful concentrated edible tincture, the lemon juice and the goo, I don't know. I'll let someone else try, but maybe you could start with this method and follow up with the vinegre, if you're so inclined.
But then, finally, as some other good fellow suggested, boil it: just water and again, squeezed lemon or that white vinegar. All natural, all clean, because you're worth it, my bro.
And following the organic theme, if it plugs in the wall, it takes away some of that soul. Cos after all, we are green, we spice up life with the herb, a flower, a blooming bud and in that, there's no need for a machine.
I do hope you concur and may the good times continue to roll.

Thanks man. Green cat was the first vendor I ordered from too. I then tried loads of different vendors before returning again. I'll get a few bits and bobs elsewhere but the price and quality at GC is solid.
My grinder is some kind of aluminium alloy. Doesn't aluminium react with sodium?

Ah! Of course, dissolution precipitation, it would just melt away if you left it long enough. Apologies, it hadn't occured to me it might be aluminium, the missing tooth should've given it away. Well, I'm glad one of us is still lucid enough!
I gave up on my trusty plastic grinder when i heard about all the microplastic stuff
had a metal one since it had the kief catcher but i removed the screen section so now im smoking the full shabang 😄

I was thinking I'd get a very technical description back but this sounds simple enough for me to do. I'll have a look at mine later.
I guess targeted grinder vandalism over a kief storage indecision is, on a world scale, a nice problem to have.
This makes me think about the time I went to Amsterdam for a quick trip, and purchased a fairly cheap, if not reasonable plastic grinder for my time there.
One thing I must say though, that grinder, of course being new was just a joy to use. It weren't like those plastic grinders you get here from the poundshop which starts making screeching noises after a couple spins 😂
Nonetheless, I lost that grinder on the last day and now I'm here rolling a joint using my 5 year old metal grinder that needs WD-40 and doesn't spin without giving my biceps a little workout 😆
Always a good read as always Big Roo!

Thanks man. My grinder is lovely and smooth again now it's clean. I've also seemed to become the Barry Scott of LB without realising it.
yo buy some 99.99% isopropyl (pure alcohol) from amazon, soak your grinder in a tiny amount for 2 mins and it will be as good as new. im still on my very first grinder I bought in 2001
Brilliant read that....and I thought it was just me with the kief dilemma. I have a metal Cheech and Chong grinder...never seen a good cleaning apart from emtying the kief catcher...i have several little pots of kief laying around, I'd rather that had been in my blunt ... so definitely thief. Yes I could still smoke it.. or try and make some hash but I dont need this dilemma
I have thought about one of these here fancy electrical/battery operated grinders but I just imagine them to get constantly bunged up...and i would feel disloyal to my trusty C&C

I doubt I'll go electric but my next grinder will have no kief thief. I like the look of the Santa Cruz 3 piece shredder. Pretty spendy but it'll last a long time I guess.
Yep, not going down that route again. Not seen the Santa Cruz one. I will take a peek ...if it lasts as long as my C&C one I'd be very happy.
Another commenter said the anodising chips off over time. My grinder is only coloured on the outside so doesn't suffer from that. I'll keep looking I think. Flag up any good ones you find mate.
No paint on the inside either. I did see quite a nice 3 piece one today per chance...can't for the life of me remember the name but it was $79 ...metal and not painted. I'll see if I can find it again mate
It's a lot of money but for something that's used several times a day and will last years it's probably worth paying a bit out for.

Druids Magic - First Order

Druids Magic - First Order
Highly Recommended Vendor
I've had so many people recommend the weed and service of Druids Magic that it is unreal. It's like the vendors really are druids and actually cast a magic spell on their buds prior to posting them which hypnotises people into commenting 'Druids Magic' everywhere that bud or vendor recommendations are discussed. It's also possible I don't know a huge amount about druids, magic or hypnosis. Either way It felt important to me that I investigate this hot topic and test it out for myself because while I may not know much about druidism, what I do know a fair bit about is smoking weed.
Will I come out of the experience zombiefied and only able to slowly mutter the words "Druids Magic" as an answer to every question? Let's find out.
Who Are Druids Magic?
As far as I know DM are a home grower and small vendor on LB. They have limited stock and limited options as they sell off their own grows. As such, any time I'd looked at their menu they appeared to be sold out or to be in between grows.
I Swiped Right:
This time I dropped them a message and true to reputation they were super keen to help me out with a couple of strains they had via a custom order. This is the way forward here.
The communication level was off the charts even before I ordered. After I pressed go, every state of the order was documented to me via message. There are surgeons who operate in less detail than this.
That's all very reassuring but I'm now at the waiting stage which is the worst bit of LB. Where's my weed?
Waiting:
"He waits. That's what he does. And I'll tell you what. Tick followed tock followed tick followed tock followed tick...... "
But what didn't follow was my weed. Not yet.
I'd hoped for RM efficiency but I also hope for world peace. I'm basically a dreamer. There is always tomorrow.
Day 1:
It's so far only been one working day so please don't read my impatience as a delay. I'm excitable and just really want to try this stuff out. I believe if there is one single thing that everyone on LB can relate to it's waiting for a weed delivery.
The postal folks do not understand the significance of what is happening here or the utter importance they are tasked with. Oh - hang on - that's actually the aim isn't it!
The Red Van:
Postman Pot has been. Dreams have been delivered. I ordered on Saturday and my parcel was delivered on Tuesday. That's a good service. Let's see what it is all about.
Stealth:
Stealth is thoughtful enough without me deep diving the details. It ticks my boxes and the buds arrived in good condition without leaving a bisto trail of stench in their wake.
Big Bags:
I ordered 7g and Druids sent me about 9g in total across two strains. One half is the Candy Kush and the other is the Coco Jambo. I've no idea if this extra weight is typical but it is of course appreciated.
Tis a Stinker:
First impressions upon opening the bag of cosmic - bloody hell that's a smell from somewhere deep in my memories. I had to take several sniffs. It's a pungent sweet old skunky aroma that instantly makes me think of my early 1990s trips to Amsterdam. This was back in the days where Dam weed was so far superior to UK stuff that it may as well have been a different drug. That's the smell here - of something long lost but welcome to return. It reminds me a bit of the original old bubblegum in Dam too.
The Grow:
I don't know enough about grows to adequately understand the production here but basically this stuff isn't the commercially produced furry pebbles. These are large natural looking buds that are looser than is typical from a modern commercial grow.
The buds are a little sticky and will benefit from being in a jar to even out. That might just be from travel as some buds don't seem to love being sealed up in the postal process. It's perhaps part of the reason for the tendancy to produce furry pebbles commercially as they do travel well.
The cosmic grinds fine though and it's not like you've just poured glue into your grinder. The bud is not wet but it just wants some love and care to hit perfection. I hope I'm explaining this correctly. Much delightful smell was released in the grinding process.
Cosmic Kush Family:
Cosmic Kush is a mix of Trainwreck (constructed of some very old genetics) and Kush which is still of course a mainstay of many vendors menus.
Smoking it I feel I'm getting more of the Trainwreck than the Kush and it's that end of the scale my nose instantly seemed to recognise when opening the bag too.
Although arguably much of the power probably has come from the kush I've no idea how to quantify that. Not least as I'm blazing a smoke while writing this.
It's a lovely smoke though, that much I can verify for sure. Smooth, clean, with a floral sweetness. It has an initial hit and a follow up stone with some smells and tastes that are deep rooted into my own cannabis history being enjoyed by my senses in the process.
You People Make Me Do This:
I suppose I'm going to have to test the Coco now too. You LB folk have twisted my arm. Basically forced me into it. I've already had a few of the Cosmic and I'm nicely stoned. Very clean buzz and a lovely smoke. But there's no point only having half an adventure. Let's see if the Coco stands up.
Coco Jambo:
The smell of the Coco Jambo is familiar too. It's cherry-like and teasing my favoured orange smell. It's all in there but it's more complexly mulled together. The smell is less prominent than the Cosmic but still definitely familiar. I had to Google the strain and it looks like it's Tropical Burst x Coconut Milk. So I guess I'm picking up on the tropical genetics which has orange cookies in its lineage. The coconut milk side feels like it contributes less but is probably subtly balancing the flavour which is why I felt it was mulled.
Pepsi Challenge:
Of the two weeds, going by the name, then going by the smell, I'd have bet on the Cosmic Kush being my favoured strain. I'm not sure that's true at all though smoking them.
While the Cosmic is the more lairy and definitely has some wonderful old flavours in there, the Coco Jumbo seems more refined. It seems to give me more of a head high but not in a hazy paranoid ansy horrible way and it eases into a nice stone. It is another really nice smoke. I think I'll have another one of these and ramble my way to the end of this topic.
So What's The Verdict on Druids Magic:
Yes folks. I get it. Thanks for the recommendation. The whole experience has been lovely. The smokes I've had this evening have been very much enjoyed and definitely different from a typical commercial grow from a high volume seller. This weed feels very well cared for and thoughtfully produced. It's powerful in both strength and flavour.
I guess comparing the service of Druids Magic to a high volume vendor is like putting your local Aunties cafe in a cage fight against a branch of Subway. Yes, Auntie knows your name and does a fine cheese and pickle sarnie and Victoria sponge cake but often you crave the mindboggling choices and size of a Subway footlong followed by more cookies than any human should consume in one session.
Would I Recommend Druids Magic?
The simple answer is yes I would. Drop them a message, try out some strains, the entire experience will be lovely from the first message to the first smoke - if your experience is anything like mine.
You'll end up with some lovely stinky weed that gets you completely stoned. If that's not an ideal transaction on LB I don't know what is.
Have The Druids Cast a Spell On Me?
I have had nothing but a lovely experience with the druids and their weed is a lovely natural product made with care. But....
I'm sure we all know my love for Green Cat remains borderline creepy. I really like caressing my way through the many strains on their menu and making the hard choices and doing research is part of the experience I enjoy. While I do return to old favourites I tend to explore new flavours every week.
I'll Be Back Though:
I will however be visiting Druids Magic as they get their new grows done and seeing what's what. This is especially true if they put an orange strain up. Now that could be a very interesting proposition from this grower. Something like the Orangina or a Tangie. So I've been glad of the introduction and thanks to the really impressively large number of people who recommended the Druids to me. I can see why you are super fans.

I've had so many people recommend the weed and service of Druids Magic that it is unreal. It's like the vendors really are druids and actually cast a magic spell on their buds prior to posting them which hypnotises people into commenting 'Druids Magic' everywhere that bud or vendor recommendations are discussed. It's also possible I don't know a huge amount about druids, magic or hypnosis. Either way It felt important to me that I investigate this hot topic and test it out for myself because while I may not know much about druidism, what I do know a fair bit about is smoking weed.
Will I come out of the experience zombiefied and only able to slowly mutter the words "Druids Magic" as an answer to every question? Let's find out.
Who Are Druids Magic?
As far as I know DM are a home grower and small vendor on LB. They have limited stock and limited options as they sell off their own grows. As such, any time I'd looked at their menu they appeared to be sold out or to be in between grows.
I Swiped Right:
This time I dropped them a message and true to reputation they were super keen to help me out with a couple of strains they had via a custom order. This is the way forward here.
The communication level was off the charts even before I ordered. After I pressed go, every state of the order was documented to me via message. There are surgeons who operate in less detail than this.
That's all very reassuring but I'm now at the waiting stage which is the worst bit of LB. Where's my weed?
Waiting:
"He waits. That's what he does. And I'll tell you what. Tick followed tock followed tick followed tock followed tick...... "
But what didn't follow was my weed. Not yet.
I'd hoped for RM efficiency but I also hope for world peace. I'm basically a dreamer. There is always tomorrow.
Day 1:
It's so far only been one working day so please don't read my impatience as a delay. I'm excitable and just really want to try this stuff out. I believe if there is one single thing that everyone on LB can relate to it's waiting for a weed delivery.
The postal folks do not understand the significance of what is happening here or the utter importance they are tasked with. Oh - hang on - that's actually the aim isn't it!
The Red Van:
Postman Pot has been. Dreams have been delivered. I ordered on Saturday and my parcel was delivered on Tuesday. That's a good service. Let's see what it is all about.
Stealth:
Stealth is thoughtful enough without me deep diving the details. It ticks my boxes and the buds arrived in good condition without leaving a bisto trail of stench in their wake.
Big Bags:
I ordered 7g and Druids sent me about 9g in total across two strains. One half is the Candy Kush and the other is the Coco Jambo. I've no idea if this extra weight is typical but it is of course appreciated.
Tis a Stinker:
First impressions upon opening the bag of cosmic - bloody hell that's a smell from somewhere deep in my memories. I had to take several sniffs. It's a pungent sweet old skunky aroma that instantly makes me think of my early 1990s trips to Amsterdam. This was back in the days where Dam weed was so far superior to UK stuff that it may as well have been a different drug. That's the smell here - of something long lost but welcome to return. It reminds me a bit of the original old bubblegum in Dam too.
The Grow:
I don't know enough about grows to adequately understand the production here but basically this stuff isn't the commercially produced furry pebbles. These are large natural looking buds that are looser than is typical from a modern commercial grow.
The buds are a little sticky and will benefit from being in a jar to even out. That might just be from travel as some buds don't seem to love being sealed up in the postal process. It's perhaps part of the reason for the tendancy to produce furry pebbles commercially as they do travel well.
The cosmic grinds fine though and it's not like you've just poured glue into your grinder. The bud is not wet but it just wants some love and care to hit perfection. I hope I'm explaining this correctly. Much delightful smell was released in the grinding process.
Cosmic Kush Family:
Cosmic Kush is a mix of Trainwreck (constructed of some very old genetics) and Kush which is still of course a mainstay of many vendors menus.
Smoking it I feel I'm getting more of the Trainwreck than the Kush and it's that end of the scale my nose instantly seemed to recognise when opening the bag too.
Although arguably much of the power probably has come from the kush I've no idea how to quantify that. Not least as I'm blazing a smoke while writing this.
It's a lovely smoke though, that much I can verify for sure. Smooth, clean, with a floral sweetness. It has an initial hit and a follow up stone with some smells and tastes that are deep rooted into my own cannabis history being enjoyed by my senses in the process.
You People Make Me Do This:
I suppose I'm going to have to test the Coco now too. You LB folk have twisted my arm. Basically forced me into it. I've already had a few of the Cosmic and I'm nicely stoned. Very clean buzz and a lovely smoke. But there's no point only having half an adventure. Let's see if the Coco stands up.
Coco Jambo:
The smell of the Coco Jambo is familiar too. It's cherry-like and teasing my favoured orange smell. It's all in there but it's more complexly mulled together. The smell is less prominent than the Cosmic but still definitely familiar. I had to Google the strain and it looks like it's Tropical Burst x Coconut Milk. So I guess I'm picking up on the tropical genetics which has orange cookies in its lineage. The coconut milk side feels like it contributes less but is probably subtly balancing the flavour which is why I felt it was mulled.
Pepsi Challenge:
Of the two weeds, going by the name, then going by the smell, I'd have bet on the Cosmic Kush being my favoured strain. I'm not sure that's true at all though smoking them.
While the Cosmic is the more lairy and definitely has some wonderful old flavours in there, the Coco Jumbo seems more refined. It seems to give me more of a head high but not in a hazy paranoid ansy horrible way and it eases into a nice stone. It is another really nice smoke. I think I'll have another one of these and ramble my way to the end of this topic.
So What's The Verdict on Druids Magic:
Yes folks. I get it. Thanks for the recommendation. The whole experience has been lovely. The smokes I've had this evening have been very much enjoyed and definitely different from a typical commercial grow from a high volume seller. This weed feels very well cared for and thoughtfully produced. It's powerful in both strength and flavour.
I guess comparing the service of Druids Magic to a high volume vendor is like putting your local Aunties cafe in a cage fight against a branch of Subway. Yes, Auntie knows your name and does a fine cheese and pickle sarnie and Victoria sponge cake but often you crave the mindboggling choices and size of a Subway footlong followed by more cookies than any human should consume in one session.

Great review BigRoo,
And your bang on..DM does kinda cast a spell!
I've never been disappointed and get proper excited when a new crop is available.
Hope they read this and you never know, an orange strain may come along.

Thanks man. I hope so. I think there's a niche orange fandom that'd lap it up. I guess it depends what the druids like smoking themselves and I've also no idea how hard it is to grow.
Love this kind of review BigRoo, really well thought out, and the Coco Jambo sounds amazing. I had the pleasure of some Smashberry Fumez, you can absolutely tell theres love and attention to their grows.
Both are lovely but the Coco is a little more balanced for me. I'll definitely be back to check on their grows to see what's cooking. I completely agree - can see a lot of love went into their crop.
Nice one BigRoo. Have seen them around but never tried their wares. I'm just gonna pop off and check their menu out now. I like the sound of that kush.
Thank you for sharing your musings 👍
Thank you for sharing your musings 👍
I think you'll need to message them for a custom order same as I had to as stock is (or was) low. Thanks man, as they're recommended so often as a vender, after ordering, I thought it'd be fun to diarise the experience.
Managed to bag a little schnifter of that Kush. Let's hope the postie does his thing right for the weekend 🤞
Top comms from Druids too
Top comms from Druids too
Postie has let me down on one today. Thought I'd have some magic level hash this weekend. Seems it's not to be. Hope yours is more efficient.
I'll be interested to know what you think and if it matches my description. I particularly find it challenging to describe smells, flavours and feelings so always hope I've communicated it well.

I have everything crossed. I'll definitely let you know BigRoo... when i read sweet skunky aroma and memories of 1990s coffee shops in the Dam in your review, I was salivating and heading straight for their page. Just got in in time before they shut til April .DMs service has been exemplary so far. Fingers crossed your postie comes through tomorrow 🤞
I think you're going to be pretty content with what you get. Hope so anyway. Hopefully RM will be bringing the magic to us both.
Postie arrived but order was incomplete. So my luck was better but didn't hit the top of the podium of lucky people opening their post today. Vendor is sorting so that's good. Still bit frustrating but at least it's being sorted.
Bummer! I gotta feeling they'll be a few of us this weekend. Even my GC order took 2 days this week and that's not happened for a while. I'm far from dry ...just looking forward to a new strain🙆♂️ I'm guessing the bit you were looking forward to most was the missing part. Glad to.hear it's being sorted quickly tho
Exactly that! One good priced bit, one fancy bit. Fancy bit was missing. The good priced bit was top notch though. I'm also far from dry so I've not got my knickers in a twist or anything and vendor is sorting it so can't say fairer than that I guess. But still..I wanted my fancy bit.
Lol...it's always the way. I feel your pain dude.... But glass half full and all that, you had a pleasant surprise with the bit you received and it's gonna be a fine start to the week....for both of us
I'll save the fancy bit til the weekend once it arrives I suspect. Although quality control may need a wee tester.
Postie came through yesterday....yay! It was worth the weight. As soon as you open the pack you're hit by some old school sweet Skunky smells.. I swear I got a hint of cheese! These are definitely some nice light airy buds...looks way more than a garden gate here. I agree that the trainwreck side is the most dominant....but the kush side comes through when you're nice and mellow imo. An excellent day time smoke...i cant leave it alone...All in all I'm glad I followed your recommendation....can't wait to see what April brings!
Glad it landed mate. Cheese is a skunk #1 that went rogue (if legend is true) so it does dip right back into those original old strains everything was created from. The smell of weed history! Enjoy.
Oh, most definitely and you might need to test it the next day too...for comparison purposes
Glad you managed to get some ;)
I couldnt get enough of both.
You rate Green Cat? Havent tried them yet but have been tempted.
I big +1 on the tangie though.. i havent had a me.orable orange strain in years.

Yeah man both are lovely natural smokes. I look forward to seeing what they grow next. I like the range of bargains and keenly priced nice bits at GC. Lots are imported although often the UK stuff is great. It's pretty rare to get a bit that doesn't feel good value for the price - and I do like a bargain.
Cool, thanks ill give them a go next time im shopping about. Im the similar as long as i feel its good value for money im a happy guy.
It’s always such a pleasure to read these posts on here. Thanks BigRoo.
I’ve still got a bit of their Bola Mints stashed. It’s one of my special occasion treats that comes out now and again. 🙏👍

Thanks man for your kind words. I've got bits in jars for same reason. Have a couple here and there. Lovely stuff. Looking forward to getting in early next time the new strains hit the menu.
The Druid’s are magic! I was lucky enough to get some future planets and high Mars from them and it was my most favourite weed of all time!

Blue Cheese Yes Please

Blue Cheese Yes Please
I've Had a Lot of Blue Cheese:
In the past I've had a lot of blue cheese. I really mean a lot. For a period - probably years - it was about all you could get locally and, generally speaking, the weed strains that have saturated the local market I have grown completely averse to.
I honestly don't care if I ever see another bit of lemon haze or stardawg ever again. I had those so often I began to question whether I even liked smoking weed. I once felt a little like that about the blue cheese. My shoulders would sag and I'd sigh after knocking round at mateys flat only to be informed the menu consisted of blue cheese, blue cheese or a cheese that was blue.
However it seems I've gotten over it because as soon as I saw that Green Cat had some I was straight onto it. Nostalgia is a mixed up thing there's no mistake about it. Maybe there's hope for the lemon yet.
The Smell of The Past:
As I opened the bag the smell of the past wafted over me like time travel aromatherapy. I bought a few bits from GC as usual but I was super excited to jump straight onto the blue cheese. The buds are huge and the price is a bargain $55 a quarter. It's probably a bit drier than bud perfectionists might demand but the buds still squidge and aren't crispy or dusty.
Blue Favourites:
The blue flavour is dominant in a number of my favourite strains - I don't exclusively like orange despite the rumours. Things like the Skywalker OG are repeatedly irresistible to me. One of the first blue strains I could get on repeat though was the blue cheese so I suppose that my love of the blue taste comes more from the blue cheese than from the blueberry or any other blue strain.
The Original Blueberry:
I've had original blueberry several times. Only twice was it actually nice. Although to be fair those two bits were the holy grail of flavour at the time. I assume it's hard to grow well. It'd be interesting to see someone do a modern grow as I've not seen it for years and I'd be curious how the original strain stacked up when grown to perfection. The blue cheese was clearly a much more reliable strain hence - I assume - its booming popularity over a long period of time.
Cheese Was Cool Once Dude
The original cheese was also a breakthrough of its time and quickly was what everyone was asking for. Interestingly I'm not so bothered about getting cheese again. Perhaps I should.
What's The Blue Cheese Like To Smoke?
Mmmmmm.... Blue cheese... It's a blend of two flavours. Obviously there's the deep blueberry flavour that's banked as a solid base for a number of tasty strains. But it's interlaced with an old pungent thick and original sickly sweet skunky taste. If you liked it back in the day I expect you'll like this little trip down memory lane. This is a decent level blue cheese.
The stone is solid with both an immediate hit and a little follow up. Despite being a weed of the past it sits pretty nicely in my stash and I'm happy I bought it to dip into. I'm going to have another blast from the past right now. I suspect the novelty will wear off and I'll probably stash a bit away for the future but right now I'm loving the blue cheese.
Thanks:

I had some of the exodus blue and squidgy black from TGT in my xmas stash this year. Can’t beat the nostalgia! ❤️
I loved the pk black. There's a topic about it on my page here. I've still got a bit left and keep rolling the odd one here and there. The silver bubble is (or was) a lovely bit. Not as musky as some but with a northern lights twang so a real old school bit. I've not had the exodus. Might have a dabble next time. There's nothing like memory lane weed. I love the new stuff of course but dipping into the past on LB is awesome.
I love a drop of northern lights , going down memory lane . That takes me straight back to amsterdam 96 ish . Absolutely lawless the place , but best times . Not a fan of the cheese strain , unless i got plenty of neurofen on me . Too head strong the cheese 😂👍👍 roll me a northern lights any day
I think the original cheese was just a rogue skunk #1 plant so is the same genes essentially. It was cloned and spread from there. So it's probably got it's flighty buzz from that. There's a lot of modern strains with much better balanced high for sure. I'm pretty haze averse for similar reasons. I loved the original old orange bud in Dam. Was never top of the menu but the locals smoked it.
Am a fan of the Original Cheese (been hunting without any luck) not the Blue Cheese kinda makes me a little Nauseated the taste.
However, in my endeavors to find the Real Cheese; which I am hearing I will never Get (Waaaa ... a little cry) ..... I ended up getting some Blue Cheese from THC23 during Xmas ... Probably one of the best smokes that I have had of the Blue Cheese albeit it still makes me a little "Ergh" with the taste & Smell ... The bud, the structure and the whole shabang was actually Primo Quality ... The Buzz was extremely Euphoric and was one of the strongest smokes of any Cheese and The quality was defo 10/10-Cali+ Standards
If THC23 Ever puts it out ... I would say worth trying it for Sure ... But they are always a bit Pricey. But well worth it if you are a fan of Blue Cheese.

Does the Exodus Cheese not match the old cheese that everyone had back in the day? I remember once jumping on the train to score and getting my first bit of cheese. On the way back I became rather aware I had stunk out the entire train carriage. It was the stinkiest stuff I'd had at the time. I only had a quarter or something.
Exodus isn't even close, has the smell but tastes horrible to me, reminds me of burnt matches. I've not found anything close to that original "baby sick" funk. Tried GC, C&C weed factory and a few others.
Back when I was a youth real cheese was literally the only thing available for a year then it was gone never to seen again.

Burnt matches is definitely not what you want. I remember the cheese phase well though. Hope you find it one day. I know I've been super excited when finding old flavours from the past.
mine has just been confirmed as sent, I'm looking forward to it even more now after reading your review!! Cheers
If you like a blue cheese, and I assume as you ordered it that you do, I reckon you'll like this. It might not be the best blue cheese I've ever had but that'd be a high bar to hit considering I've had something like eighteen thousand, six hundred and thirty seven different varieties of it previously. For the price I'd say it's bang on and you'll be a happy toker.
Got my BC yesterday...not left it alone since! This Q is not gonna last long! Like you say BigRoo...not the best but a very good effort. I will be ordering more.
Yeah man I've been loving it. I've started on the BC today already. My big bud did even out a bit in a jar overnight so it may have been an unhappy traveller. It's great stuff though. Taste of nostalgia and a solid stone at pretty much the same price I paid all those years ago.
Yes, it definitely appreciates a bit of breathing space... and tbh some of the nicest tasting BC I've had in a very long time....Best hitting too.
I'm always looking out for old school strains/ flavours and this definitely didn't disappoint. Also that Static shock of dapperdanks is well worth a punt. Can taste the white widow mostly and pretty strong...not quite as hard hitting as this BC but nice. Arrived next day ,good stealth and coms too

I'm always wary of new vendors as I've had a faff in the past with a couple. I was tempted by the static shock though as I've not seen any white widow in years. Glad to hear dapper had a good service.
I hear you on that but the temptation was to much and luckily all worked out well. Riley packs used to have a bit of white widow when I first started using lb a couple of years ago but not seen any since

Some Interesting Newbie Vendor Products

Some Interesting Newbie Vendor Products
Okay. Before we start it's probably worth noting that I rarely order from new vendors and I've not tested any of these out. I have dabbled with new vendors in the past with mixed success rates. Some were great, some definitely weren't and many of them now don't exist on LB. Generally I order from the same reliable vendors unless I'm specifically looking for something special or something exclusive happens to catch my eye.
I guess it's also worth noting that even some usually reliable and long established vendors have either hiccups or just fall to pieces over time. So age isn't always a complete guarantee of success and happiness either.
Newbie vendors often make their mark by offering us some interesting products and wonderful bargains to tempt us away from our mainstay vendors. Some of these newbies will of course be the big vendors of the future while some will possibly not get the hang of LB.
So please remember we're all grown-up here (hard as it is to believe) and make your own choices. I admire the people who routinely roll the dice on a new vendor. Your payment is protected via escrow of course but, for me, you have to kiss too many frogs to find the prince. If you do like kissing frogs though here's some stuff that might be princely.

The Wizard of Oz.
Only a month or so in and already flying. I have noted a few interesting bits passing through here and they seem very engaged with the community.
Amongst the loveliness would be this new batch of Blue Nerds. This strain is beautiful when done correctly. A mixed blue / silver flavour that's just divine. And this looks likely to be done to perfection. I've not tried it though. It's a pricey bit but will it be princely - see what you think.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/a5yFhz
They also have an RS 11 that looks spot on in the photos. This is one of my favourite strains as well. It's got a wild mix of sweet flavours when done right.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/cQhysC
A lot of the bud here looks great on the photos and reviews well. I'll have to dive in at some point. They certainly have some tempting options and fantastic looking buds.

Dapper Dank
There are some interesting products on the menu but the one that's super tempting to me personally is the White Widow x Skunk #1. I definitely wonder what old school flavours may lurk in there. Very tempting to find out I must admit. These are two very familiar strains to me from the early Dam days. I can almost smell the coffee shops just from thinking about ordering it.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/zjU0gT
They've made an enthusiastic start on LB so I hope it all goes well.

Another colourful addition to LB. I noticed they had the L.A. Mousse hash.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/XiAYsv
It's a sort of fancy packaged American version of the familiar Moroccan hash we all know. This has my curiosity as to whether it'll be better or just the same and the price seems very fair to try. While I mostly smoke buds I do like to try various hash out. They have a few nice looking products on the menu.
That's All Folks:
Anyway, that's my quick roundup of some of the newbies that tempt me to be disloyal to GC. It's of course up to you where you order from. Basically don't blame me if it all goes wrong. Currently the vendors listed have a short trail of positivity behind them but as we all know that can change fast. For the bold adventurer there's some interesting bits out there to try.
If I've missed any new vendors off this list it's not personal. These are simply vendors I've come across while looking for bits and bobs. Please feel free to add yourself in the comments so I know you exist.
Thanks
As always thanks for reading my topic. I hope it was informative and if not I hope it was entertaining at least. I'll see you in the next topic.

Newbie vendors often make their mark by offering us some interesting products and wonderful bargains to tempt us away from our mainstay vendors. Some of these newbies will of course be the big vendors of the future while some will possibly not get the hang of LB.
So please remember we're all grown-up here (hard as it is to believe) and make your own choices. I admire the people who routinely roll the dice on a new vendor. Your payment is protected via escrow of course but, for me, you have to kiss too many frogs to find the prince. If you do like kissing frogs though here's some stuff that might be princely.

The Wizard of Oz.
Only a month or so in and already flying. I have noted a few interesting bits passing through here and they seem very engaged with the community.
Amongst the loveliness would be this new batch of Blue Nerds. This strain is beautiful when done correctly. A mixed blue / silver flavour that's just divine. And this looks likely to be done to perfection. I've not tried it though. It's a pricey bit but will it be princely - see what you think.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/a5yFhz
They also have an RS 11 that looks spot on in the photos. This is one of my favourite strains as well. It's got a wild mix of sweet flavours when done right.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/cQhysC
A lot of the bud here looks great on the photos and reviews well. I'll have to dive in at some point. They certainly have some tempting options and fantastic looking buds.

Dapper Dank
There are some interesting products on the menu but the one that's super tempting to me personally is the White Widow x Skunk #1. I definitely wonder what old school flavours may lurk in there. Very tempting to find out I must admit. These are two very familiar strains to me from the early Dam days. I can almost smell the coffee shops just from thinking about ordering it.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/zjU0gT
They've made an enthusiastic start on LB so I hope it all goes well.
---
Zaza
Another colourful addition to LB. I noticed they had the L.A. Mousse hash.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/XiAYsv
It's a sort of fancy packaged American version of the familiar Moroccan hash we all know. This has my curiosity as to whether it'll be better or just the same and the price seems very fair to try. While I mostly smoke buds I do like to try various hash out. They have a few nice looking products on the menu.
That's All Folks:
Anyway, that's my quick roundup of some of the newbies that tempt me to be disloyal to GC. It's of course up to you where you order from. Basically don't blame me if it all goes wrong. Currently the vendors listed have a short trail of positivity behind them but as we all know that can change fast. For the bold adventurer there's some interesting bits out there to try.
If I've missed any new vendors off this list it's not personal. These are simply vendors I've come across while looking for bits and bobs. Please feel free to add yourself in the comments so I know you exist.
Thanks
As always thanks for reading my topic. I hope it was informative and if not I hope it was entertaining at least. I'll see you in the next topic.
Yep, can certainly vouch for the WizardofOZ (had some great flower at a great price) and ZAZA (some blinding L.A hash).
Also, props to cmdMAK for some beautifully grown Shining silver Haze, and Lushbitzandbuds for a nice range of really clean hash.
Still so many more new vendors to sample, though. New edibles sellers next, methinks!
Keep up the good work and great recommendations, Roo!

Thanks man. Yeah even after a year on LB I'm still basically like a kid in a sweet shop. Too many choices! I always make my own cookies using D9 or RSO or often a mix of both. It works out super cheap to do with a premix cookie pack out of Tesco. I usually make just one or two at a time.
I can vouch for dapperdank, received an order from them last week. Great promo offers available atm, the hash is really good for the price point. Stealth spot on, they’re gunna do well on here 👍
Medicatedmunchies sent me a pack of millionsbites as a competition winner. Again stealth spot on and they have some interesting edibles (hot chocolate and doritos). Check them out:

I'm genuinely really tempted by those old school flavours so I might dive in. I've picked a few bits up for now though.
Spotted that " Static shock " from Dapperdank myself and had exactly the same thoughts as you BigRoo. Old school goodness I hope 🤞 Just trying to justify another order this week!
I've also already got a few bits n bobs to keep me ticking over - including two types of mimosa. So I'm also finding it hard to justify diving into any of the options I've listed above. The static shock - I expect will be a pretty rare find.
Well I've slept on it and decided ..f*ck it I might not see it again. So just ordered a bit. Like you, makes me feel disloyal to GC but the temptation of some old school is to great.... talking of GC, have you tried the Ice cream Sunday? If not you must ..it's a beauty imo.Having some more of that when I next order ...if it's not gone 🤞
I've not had the ICS but I'll add to my next order if still available. And yeah I doubt you'll see many old school bits like that. I'm still annoyed at missing out on the Durban Poison a while back.
Bugger I didn't see that about! I did have something called Ice Age last year...that was some real old school flavors.. should be some more coming soon ...from Oro Verde...he grows it himself and let's have a good 3 month curing. Keep your eye out for that mate, it's worth it
I delayed ordering, by the time I decided I would, everyone had snapped it all up. I think it was the spacemen had it but maybe wrong. I've not ordered from Oro but have noted them for future reference.
Zaza is great first order with him was a 3.5 of the l.a mouse great hash just crumbles nice clean taste off it too, 1 day it took to come. Domutwo also mentions cmdmak which I had the opportunity to try his lovely smoke which is still the cheapest oz I’ve had he was great the smoke was great I’m excited to see what’s next from him ❤️❤️
Seconded on Zaza, got 7gs of the Cherry Ripple last week. Lovely tight little nuggets fruity with a good hit, i'll definitely be back on this
I wrote a topic on new vendors a while back as zaza and others had caught my attention. I've not ordered there but glad to hear people are getting a good service. It's reassuring if I do dive into their menu.
Oh - it's this topic. I hadn't realised this had cycled round as I have another more recent vendor topic.
I was really tempted by the L.A. Mousse they had. If it hadn't of sold out by my pay day I'd probably have ordered a bit to try. It was the tropical version I think from memory. I hope they get more.
I had some of the LA tropicana hash, it was nice although quite similar to the pilon/blonde that LV has listed cheaper. I also tried the LA jealousy hash from TGT which was a lot nicer.
I'd heard mixed reviews about it but I'm always curious about new hash. Maybe I should buy a good la mousse and and an L.A. Mousse and have a mousse-off between them. You think the L.A. is worth it?
Appreciate it BigRoo 💚
Always a great read no matter the topic!
And the Blue Nerdz is a beauty 😆

What Does a Top Vendor on LB Do Differently?

What Does a Top Vendor on LB Do Differently?
I started to wonder what are the best qualities for a vendor to have. We all have our favourite vendors who we rely on and use on repeat. But what put them there into that top spot holding the gold medal? There's over a hundred vendors and over a thousand products at the time of writing this. What separates them?
I would likely drill it down to these main pillars of great vending from my own experiences. This is what I like vendors to exceed at.
- Great products
- Reasonable prices
- Good communication
- Fast delivery
- Thoughtful stealth
- Reliable service
I'll pick through these one at a time below.
- Great products -
All of these probably speak for themselves. But primarily we want to smoke, vape and eat great quality cannabis products. We don't want to be rolling up ditch weed in a bus ticket. I personally like vendors with relentless quality controls; Where the vendor name feels like a stamp of approval. So whatever I order there is very likely to be of good quality. This is number one on the list for a reason.
- Reasonable prices -
No one likes being rinsed for their coins. One of the key appeals of LB is the great value compared to buying from a local. While I'm sure we all appreciate that a bag of imported jungle boys is more costly than a bag of shake, feeling we are paying a fair price is definitely the winner.
- Good communication -
This is not as relevant when everything has gone perfectly. But eventually, if you order enough, something goes awry so good communication is a must for me.
I'm not looking for a new best mate but knowing we're in some way together in this until the deal is complete reassures me that you'll deliver. I have stopped using a couple of vendors who are unable to tick this box. I understand that vendors can't reply in 5 mins and that their shop is a business so they deserve their work-life balance as much as anyone. But timely replies to valid questions or issues are a must for me.
- Fast delivery -
"I've ordered some lovely looking bits - get them to me right now!" We're all excited when we order but need to apply an appropriate amount of patience and face the reality of logistics. I've had orders delivered inside of one day but generally you can't rely on that level of service particularly as RM is a piece of the puzzle.
However, what I do like to see is vendors routinely hitting the service level they state on their profile and getting orders sent out in decent time, particularly when you fluster your way through moving coins to hit their stated cut off points. I appreciate that I won't be rolling up five minutes after my payment clears but the faster and more reliable a vendors process is, the more likely they'll get repeat orders from me. The main vendors I order from have their order process completely dialled in. I also prefer tracked to signed deliveries as that requires less commitment on my part.
- Thoughtful stealth -
Here's an area where even some of the big vendors could do with improvement. I'm not going to detail anyone's stealth for the obvious reason. I guess ultimately it needs to hit a few key points. Professional / No smell / No touching / What if someone else opens it. The vendors concerned about all these are the ones I trust the most.
- Good service level / rating -
This really follows on from good communication. If a problem has occurred I don't just want a nice chat about it, I want a simple solution. There are vendors I've had problems with that both communicated well and solved the problem that I'd still happily use and recommend. Vendors ticking all these boxes should naturally attain a high rating.
- Community interaction -
It's good to see vendors interact with the LB community. I'm glad they're involved. Often they can shine a light on things us punters know little about and knowing they are here is reassuring for many of the reasons I've mentioned such as service and communication.
However this isn't as essential as the other elements to get me to order weed. If a vendor runs multiple channels and is super busy just by nature of being a great vendor then I'm cool with that. After all it's that volume of sales that give us the great pricing. Some of the core vendors I use don't interact huge amounts with the LB community and I'm fine with that so long as they tick my other boxes. Being quietly fast and reliable while not wanting to draw attention or whip up controversy are all positive traits considering the nature of the purchase we're all trying to make anyway.

My core vendors:
It's no secret that Green Cat are my core vendor for weed currently.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/9GReqt
They tick all my boxes on repeat and once delivered me an order about 18 hours after I paid for it.
The weed range and price is exactly what I'm after (with the exception of orange flavours) with some top bits and a bunch of bargains. Service is fast. If I have questions they're answered. I've not had a big problem to sort but I'm sure that GC would be all over it if I did. The GC logo is a quality stamp. Trust in the cartoon cat.
I've just ordered some more blue nerds there which is one of my favourite strains. Marked as sent already.
-----
Dr Distillate would be next on my list:
https://littlebiggy.net/link/7JrVXL
A quietly reliable vendor. I order most of my RSO, D9 and extracts here. I trust the Dr and they've proved reliable. I'm a fan of the crumble waxes too. Very good value and a superbly smooth and flavourful smoke in my dab pen. I've also had orders from here inside of 24 hours.
I quite fancy trying a cart from here when I next need one. Probably a live resin version.
-----
Other vendors:
I've used loads of other vendors of course and many of them have a tip top service too. I've detailed many before in other topics like the one linked and I still love you all and will be back to buy again in the future. Two recent stand out services though were:
The Hash Collective provided me a brilliant service recently over the Piatella order.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/oQQ9WB
They held me a bit until payday for my birthday treat. They kept their word and so did I. There's very few online shops outside of this world that would do this usually I imagine. It was a great, if bloody expensive, transaction.
They also have really fancy special glass pots. Very posh and carefully selected. One of the best pots I've had on LB. Probably the second best pots in fact :-) What isn't second best though is the range of fancy hash products. Lots have a price tag that will make your eyes water long before any of the smoke hits them but they've got some real posh stuff going on that's worth exploring for a special treat or if you smoke like a gangsta.
The Good Stuff proved themselves a committed vendor to me as well recently.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/LqYu0Y
They went the extra bit to rectify a small mistake that's not worth detailing as I wouldn't want this to be taken as a negative. Unless you've never made a single mistake then please never judge a vendor on their single mistake - judge them on what they do next. Their response showed they truly cared about their service level and reputation. They subsequently did precisely what they said they would to fix it. Top notch stuff. And while we'd all rather have no mistakes ever, knowing the vendor has your back is a powerful indicator of service and engagement with customers. I'll order there again. Not least as they've got a fantastic range of really nice hash at great prices including some very fancy looking static. The bargain mimosa I had previously was lovely and orangey.
Great Vendors:
Going the extra mile to satisfy customers requests or taking the time to fix orders shows a service level that barely exists outside of a platform like this. It elevates us and strengthens us as a community and makes me proud of my little part here in buying and smoking as much weed as I can to help everyone out.
Let Us Know About Your Best Vendors:
If you feel a vendor you use hits all these pillars of great vending or they have gone the extra mile for you then please flag them up to me and others on LB by replying to this topic. Or if you feel there are other key indicators of a great vendor that I've not thought about let me know.

excellent post as always, bigroo! you're truly a credit to this community.
I've had a smooth service from the goodstuff, and their statics are unreal.
I'd like to give a particular shout out to the following vendors who are a joy to deal with and who make the whole experience feel a bit special:
odin's
rocketdogronnie
druid's magic
psychonauts
keep the articles coming BR, they are a joy 😁

Druidsmagic, ive not experienced anyone better so far. From bud to comms they are top notch. Its smaller scale own grown they really know what theyre doing.
If youve not tried i cant recommend enough
If youve not tried i cant recommend enough
I wish there was a notification system on LB so I'd get notified when Druids (and a handful of other smaller operators) had bits in. They've been recommended a lot and the buds look lovely on the photos people post up.
We do around £20-35k a month in sales, so we must be doing something right here :)
It must be something to do with having decent product and replying to messages quickly. Also getting all parcels shipped out quickly.
It must be something to do with having decent product and replying to messages quickly. Also getting all parcels shipped out quickly.
I've only heard good things about your products and service so must be doing something right for sure! Sounds like you do a fair volume of sales.
the vendors I keep going back to are the ones that don't fuck up. Spaceman, Eagle Bakery and Eddie are the only three on that list for me
Everyone makes mistakes from time to time. I definitely do. If one of those three vendors slipped up would you not forgive them if they communicated well and fixed the problem? Or would that be them done?
let me put it another way, I don't go back to vendors that fuck up and then piss about with shitty excuses and take ages to resolve an issue. everyone makes mistakes, it's how you handle them that makes the man
Your topics are always a good read BigRoo. The following are what I look for
1] value for money
Goes without saying really
2] stealth
All you said BigRoo...some vendors have been very creative over the years. Pretty sure my postie knows what the package is now...he always puts it through the letter box rather than leave it in the post box outside
3] comms
I think I've been lucky coz I've never had any real problems. But if I did I would expect a reply with 24h
4] delivery
Again I've learnt patience over the years. When I order I work on the basis it's gonna take the full 3 days... I usually go for the 1-3 day tracked no signature...if turns up on day 1 , happy days. If it's not turned up by day 4 then I start to panic
Green Cat is my goto and he smashes all of the above imo.
I would also recommend
Oro Verde ... small batch home grown weed. V small menu but worth the wait for his weed .
Eddys ....if I want some nice hash
Also worth a mention
Cannabis Cannibals
DapperDank
Dr Greenthumb
The Greenteam

I’ve used cannabis cannibals too a couple of times and was impressed. (Thanks for the reminder about them, I’ll have to go back)
Cannabis cannibals are top people. Love those guys. I don't order nearly enough to show my support but they've jumped in and helped with a number of my projects and are really here and involved with the community. I've mentioned them on my linked post and many times previously. For my main post here I didn't want to have to ramble through a full rundown of every vendor I used and just focused on my most recent examples.
Thanks man. I thought I'd replied to this. I've heard good things about Oro but not tried them yet. Will have to soon. All good recommendations there mate.
Love this post, agree with all your factors. For me it’s consistency and comms; which is why I stick to vendors I trust for the most part
Top list of sellers too, a couple I haven’t tried yet but will now. Thanks
Top list of sellers too, a couple I haven’t tried yet but will now. Thanks
Thanks man. I went in a big circle on vendors and ended up back ordering at GC as they tick all my boxes for weed. I had no idea this post would go quite as far as it did. Some newer vendors have looked at it as a guide which I never expected.
That’s good because they should, it’s a really well put together manifesto mate. Exactly what all vendors should aspire to be providing.
Theyre not like dealers I’ve had to deal with for 25 years, they’re vendors and I like that distinction. Your ideals pretty much determine the difference imho and the more vendors new and old alike that read this and take it in the better for them, us and the whole community here on LB
With you all the way GC is my go to for most things, absolutely brilliant vendor all round. Also love Green Avenger Warrior for all the same reasons and Hashman_UK too but he’s MIA right now for some reason.
Hope as many people as possible get to see this 👊

I know there's a fair few vendors that have aligned values to this. A lot of them I don't order from simply as it's signed delivery and I lack the commitment to be home. So while they don't match my exact needs I know they do a great service generally. GAW I've ordered from a few times. They get a good commercial hash in as well as some orangy strains.
They are still dealers but are more accountable due to the LB platform. I might do a topic about that in the future. I think it's always worth remembering they're not set up like Amazon and are having to take numerous cautious steps for both ours and their benefit to send us our parcels.

Yeah very true, far from Amazon. But it does have an early days of eBay vibe thanks to being ran well, the good many good vendors and having a positive, active community. Maryjane finally coming out of the shadows after decades of political stupidity 🙏
I remember eBay essentially solving the same issue of remote trust in their early platform too. LB does a great job in the same ways by adding accountability. Simple but brilliant really. The fact they've also managed to build up a community is something eBay never quite managed in the same way. The UK I expect will choose to remain politically dumb on this subject for some time though despite progress in much of Europe and the US.
Agree with all of the above.
Main thing for me is Comms & Stealth. (After Quality of course) 3 Years on here now & tried a lot of the bigger sellers & several smaller ones.
The two I have settled on are RealD and Green Cat both of whom have always delivered quality, reliability & great service.

Fair comment on both RD and GC. Both are vendors whose name is like a quality stamp of approval. I use Green Cat all the time as the service is spot on. I only usually stray away if I'm looking for orange buds or certain random things.
I am new to LB, I have 13 buys, all have gone well, and I have received 2 great subs. The one thing I would suggest, is that sellers clearly mark their packs with the strain. The reason I say this, is due to the subs being an unknown strain, and I don't know what to reorder in future. I am happy to be here, and I look forward to trying more products from as many recommended sellers as possible.
I stopped using a vendor for subbing stuff yet the listing stayed live. I'd rather pay a couple of bucks more and get exactly what I expected to. All the sellers I buy from currently mark the packs so you know what's what. I tend to order quite a few bits at once and while I'd likely be able to identify them by smell I'd definitely get the hump if I actually had to.
As a new seller there is some great intel here - many thanks 🙏🏽
You've definitely saved me a bunch of time and effort researching exactly what people are looking for and what is important to customers.
I've been gradually getting my products listed up and getting my logistics sorted out. Once that is all done I'll be running the obligatory competition/giveaway to try and get a bit more traction, but know that it takes time and patience to build up a solid reputation. Onwards and upwards!

Thanks man. It didn't really occur to me it'd be useful for new vendors. It must be hard to make your mark as a vendor. You need to build trust up first and get your first few super fans. Good luck with your shop.
Integrity and attitude is what makes a good vendor.
My favourite vendors are Shroom Of The Loom (he goes above and beyond, great relations with this guy), TheGoodStuff (made two mistakes out of 20 orders, rectified them no questions asked) and FungalCate (was willing to accommodate a special request for me). All 3 have good stealth (TGS has the worst but it's not bad at all). And they all have good comms.
Vendors that use their own products are the ones you can trust the most imo, and I know these 3 vendors do.
Dr Distillate and Greencat are also two vendors I trust, Greencat can be hit and miss but generally gets decent stuff. I'm going to go against the grain here and say, I wouldn't recommend druids magic. Sure they are lovely people, but it's overpriced homegrown sadly. The terps I had from the two strains I sampled were nice but the weed was not even that strong, I wasn't impressed considering the £10 a gram price.
The worst vendors are the ones peddling questionable hash and then getting extremely defensive over it. They make the borgs money though so nothing will ever be done :)

I like SOTL although not ordered there for a while. Used to like the Tommy Shelby shatter. Stealth+1 delivery style. Tgs are getting some nice products at not huge money.
Dr D & GC are my core vendors as they generally get it right on repeat. Very reliable and trustworthy services. GC get some lovely bits in that are great value. The blue nerds variant they had previously was incredible. I've just bought a bag of the new one but not tried it yet. Was delivered on a Sunday too.
I've just ordered from druids magic to see for myself what it's like. The order process was very friendly. Will see what the buds are like. Was same price as the White Gummies I just got from GC - $75 QTR.
Fake hash is a contentious issue. I've seen comments saying hash was fake that I'd bought and known for sure was good. I have had one bad bit from LB though. I've kept it just to show people.

Hey BigRoo great read as always. Hit the nail on the head with what's hoped for.
I have to give Radar Breeder a shout out as I have never had an issue with an order and they meet the expectations on all fronts. Loads of other great vendors mentioned here already.
Another issue for me is subs. If a vendor is going to sub one of my products I would prefer a message to let me know or ask what would be preferred. If I look at their store and they still have a listing for something they tell me is out of stock I won't use them again. If it's disappeared or been marked out of stock then I can accept it was an innocent mistake.

I've ordered from RB before. Think I had a cheapie that was really lovely. Looked scrappy but was a joy to smoke. Really gassy. Can't remember why I stopped unless they're special delivery which I mostly avoid due to a lack of commitment on my part.
Subs is a good shout and I should have considered that writing the topic. I fully get that lb sales system leaves vendors with tricky inventory handling. But I agree that the solution is communication. That's a whole logistical pickle for a vendor to hit smoothly at volume though and would slow deliveries. Which in turn would trigger another subset of more urgent customers. I imagine it's a juggling act at the vendor end. However I do agree that getting a sub of something you don't like when you ordered something you love is a right kick in the nuts. And even more so when the listing doesn't disappear as you know that up and down the UK folks are smoking the weed you want but don't have. Lucky bastards! I'll always forgive the odd mistake especially when compensated but agree regular subs is goodbye from me.

Also worth noting GC subbed half of one of my bits before and upgraded me simply as they felt I'd like the other bit better. And were completely correct. I was skint so bought the cheapest so the part upgrade was a lovely thought to make my week better. So not all subs are bad. There's a good way to do it!
Been on here a little while now off n on. More of a vaper these days but I can vouch for
ULC
Dr Terpy
Canadian imports
Druids
Others worth a check still maybe:
Green Cat - though not used in a while now, when he started out he was on it
Radar breeder, drugs Inc (now natural medicine I think) were pretty good but delivery took a little longer

Druids are on everyone's list it seems. I'll definitely have to get onto that when they've got new stock in.
I'd say message ASAP just now bud, the candy kush is absolutely stunning. Think everything else from the latest crop is low or sold out. Catch it while you can, and everything you mention on your list will be more than met.
Great article, enjoyed reading and the comments👍

They only have tincture on their page currently. I missed out by looks of it. This was same last time loads of people recommended them. I could do with an alert notification system on LB.
They update their store page regularly so it’s a good idea to bookmark it and check often. Just drop them a DM, if they have anything available they will sort you a custom order at any time. Great people!😍
I've just done that very thing. Hopefully will sort something out with them. They've got a solid fan base here though for sure.
Yes - I've got two strains heading my way for next week. Am looking forward to seeing what the score is there. Seems like a nice vendor. If the weed matches the communication I'll be blown away.
Haha amazing, look forward to hearing your thoughts.
Yes, absolutely mint vendor, really cares..as your finding out..
Enjoy and glad your getting to sample😁

I had it come through yesterday. I wrote my typical blow-by-blow diary style blog topic as I was testing it but had some stuff get in the way of me proofing and finishing it. I'll post it up in the next couple of days. Thanks man.
Great post mate.
Well done
DonLoco provides an absolutely faultless service in all areas.
Especially stealth and speed of answering queries.

I've not ordered from Don. They usually have some good looking bits on the menu though. I'll dive in one day.
Definitely not us atm 🤦♂️ but for me personally, I have to give a shout out to Your Mums House and The Spacemen.
Never had an issue when I used to be a customer and never had a bad strain. What I loved most about them was their consistency.. I had full faith that my last min orders would make it out that day and that I'd be smoking on it the next.
They set the bar for our store and service.. and now with our recent cancelled orders fiasco, I appreciate their long running service to this platform even more. Props where props are due!
Great post too, Roo 🏆

Thanks man. Just read through your issues. Hope you get your operational stuff running smooth. I note you had some good reviews for your stuff previously. Good luck with it.
Have to recommend Green Avenger Weed. Free next day delivery and a lot of the time they chuck in a freebie too. Reasonably priced and their stealth is always on point.
I've not ordered from them for a while but always had a great service when I did. And they often get orange leaning strains too.
This is a formidable post Bigroo!
I’ve used this intensively recently to apply to my page.
Big up to you brother this site wouldn’t be as successful without peers Involved such as you!
Thanks for your info man I really appreciate it

We do pretty well to check those tick boxes
We’re quite new here but we are most definitely here to stay
Think the worst think we have done is question a vendor about there been a discount and them not changing the price just said it’s the same price as before just disliked my comment 😕
Hope you biggas have a nice weekend
We hope to get to the top of the leaderboard some day 💚

It's must be tough for a new vendor. Trust and reliability are core and you can only build that up over time. Have to keep plugging away at it. . However I note big vendors do change on LB so some of the current newbies will be the big teams of the future. I think most customers are looking at the values I've listed and like me hope to find a reliable vendor they can use on repeat. I'm sure you'll build a base of superfans who'll elevate you to the next level. Good luck with your vending.
I think that’s effectively the humbling aspect of this all at the end of the day I had a bad start on here family problems and what not but essentially in the short time that I’ve done this consistently I’ve seen two repeat customers if not only great business but also Great relationship and connection!
It's a cliche but all businesses are about relationships. Even the big brands we like, we form a sort of relationship with. And like all relationships there's a key factor of trust. People trust based on feeling. And creating that feeling is what it's all about.
Already have a couple people coming back been ducking buzzing
Just have to keep the ball Rolling ty bigroo💚

That's the thing man, deliver great products reliably, in good time, with minimal fuss and you'll soon build up your repeats. Because why gamble when you've got a solid vendor meeting your needs. Keep on keeping on.
I think we tick most of the boxes apart from when Royal Mail want to be a pain in the ass
I tend to agree - I've ordered from you guys in the past and you've been fast at processing the order and delivered great products at great prices. There's no accounting for RM of course but we all rely on them.
Thank u mate allways good to see positive feedback from are customers yes I definitely agree with that on the Royal Mail subject but what can we do

Piatella Review: is it the hash dreams are made from?

Piatella Review: is it the hash dreams are made from?
I finally got Piatella folks. I am very excited. Let's go check it out. But first - what actually is Piatella and why am I interested in it?
Hash Making Fascination:
I am fascinated with the hash making process. I really love how someone's been through the smarty pants thought process of extracting and isolating the loveliness from our favourite plant and how the process has been refined and improved repeatedly over the years. I have often spoken about lusting after the fine and rare hash called Piatella.
It's a truly artisan hash and the amount of care that's gone into creating it completely intrigues me. Making basic hash is easy. Making good hash is much harder. Piatella, with its detailed production methodology, is meant to be at the cutting edge of how well it's possible to make a hash and I suspect a super hard method to perfect.
The Official Piatella:
Piatella is a product name by Uncles Farm, I believe, although similar methods are used by other fancy hash makers such as LA Barz. I got told last time I mentioned the subject that for authenticity it needs to be Uncles version.
How to Make Piatella:
The process of making Piatella, in short, avoids oxidisation through avoiding contact with heat, light and air. It replaces these with lots of love and care.
Regular hash is darker due to oxidising. Piatella has avoided this which creates a different hash composition. Pretty high tech stuff going down I think we can all agree. Like, the people making this are probably in a clinical environment of brightly lit stainless steel surfaces, wearing lab coats and glasses while doing calculations on clear perspex with marker pens. This is sciencey stuff.
Fresh Frozen:
It's made with fresh frozen weed which is processed much like a frozen hash would be initially. I guess they're probably pretty fussy about the starter product and the filtering to make sure they only capture the trichomes they need to work with and not any plant material. I suspect a lot of care has been taken with the starter weed before any hash making even starts.
Freeze Dried:
The wet hash is dried in a freeze drier then wrapped and cold cured without air or heat getting to it. The upshot is the terps are meant to dissolve inwards and create a perfect solventless extract. This keeps all the strength and flavour locked in. At least according to the internet. This however is the first time I've had it for real. The question is will it live up to the hype?
It's Expensive Stuff:
The Piatella I have is Cap Junky from TheHashCollective. It was $60 for half a gram. Huge thanks to THC23 for kindly saving it for me 'til payday. That's a vendor that's working with the community right there and great service is always worth flagging up for all to see. However grateful I am for them saving it, it must of course be noted that this is really expensive stuff. It's not just champagne prices, it is the Dom Perignon. Will it have me in a fizz or leave me flat? Let's find out.
In the Pot:
It's very pretty looking stuff as you can see in the photo and it's homed in a fancy little black glass pot. It's not the nicest pot I've had from LB but we are in premium pot territory for sure It's got a fragrant floral scent laced with fresh resin. My nose and eyes tell me there is the potential for magic here.
In a Spliff:
To roll up with it's sticky but workable. I've kept it in my fridge to keep it cold and fresh. It crumbles into sort of fluffy wisps leaving my fingers a little tacky and smelling of fresh resin. Very satisfying. It's not like when you roll up with shatter and you find you've accidentally glued yourself to a packet of rizlas, a pair of scissors, two paper clips and a frying pan.
As I light up the joint I'm quickly met with thick yet light and clean clouds of fruity smoke with a slight hint of a hashy aroma set amongst a more gassy smell. In a blind test you'd know this was a form of hash as that baseline Moroccan hashy taste is in there amongst the flavour but it's not dry and pasty like with a commercial - it's much fresher.
Effects are pretty fast with it immediately making me aware of it's potency. It smokes like what it is I guess - a fantastically clean and perfectly produced cannabis extract. The effects continue to creep up as I plough through this joint. It's pretty powerful stuff but well balanced as a stone. It seems smoother than smoking a shatter extract and more akin to a wax or rosin but with a less pronounced flavour. It's probably not the strongest thing I've smoked although I must admit it is very pleasant and certainly not weak. Twas a very enjoyable if horrifically expensive joint.
In the Dab Pen
For the canna tech heads my dab pen is utillian 2. A small and basic device that's been really reliable and handy. I'll upgrade it eventually as the one thing I don't like is it's hard to clean. Other than that though it's a great little device.
Okay, it's actually pretty strong in the dab pen. Like really noticeably and immediately. I always write these reviews on the fly as I try stuff out and I had to pause a second or two there to compose myself and eat hula hoops before writing again. Two packets of BBQ Beef (suitable for vegetarians). Onwards.
While in some ways it's similar to a hash rosin in smoke and aroma, the sudden immediate stone is notable in the dab pen. In terms of exhale to headrush this is probably the fastest of anything I've smoked. My face and body feel warm seconds after dabbing it with a little europhic wave happily following - probably skipping along with flowers in its hair. So it really does have the pop and fizz of a champagne level hash with hipster overtones when you dab it.
I'm not sure it's actually stronger than my other extracts but it seems faster and a wee bit peaky. The flavour isn't as pronounced as with some extracts and it does have a hashy aroma. It's pretty smooth but not the smoothest stuff I've had through my dab pen and it definitely gives my lungs more of a tickle than my favoured extracts do.
Is it the Best Hash Ever?
Probably not. It is however really bloody good. And the effects feel markedly quicker for some reason. I'm not sure if it's the strain or the product itself or simply my imagination but that's how it felt to me. Like a rocket hash.
The Nitty Gritty:
While it's definitely a really exceptional product, it's not the god of all extracts and not least because of the cost. Perhaps it's because I'm on a budget but it's the cost that I just can't quite get to grips with.
So What Other Extracts Could You Buy for $60?
I currently have a diesel crumble wax that was $35 a gram and a apple hash rosin which was $25 a gram. So 2g's of pretty lovely and varied extract. I love both in my dab pen and for the same price as the Piatella I got four times as much product. I've not had an extract I prefer to the diesel for flavour and smoothness. While it's not the strongest I've had it's just really nice to dab and filled with flavour. I can chug along happily for ages with that stuff.
Conclusion:
I'm glad I've tried the Piatella after seeing it online and reading about it so much. Life is all about experiencing new things. While it was spendy I don't feel like I've been rinsed for the money as I'll get a fair few goes on the dab pen for the sixty bucks and it's a nice smoke. I expect I'd buy it again in the future for a special occasion - maybe. I don't feel like I'm missing out on a Rock Star stoner lifestyle by not being able to either afford or source a steady supply of it. It did feel like a treat which is exactly what I wanted but it's difficult to say it's in any way good value for the money.
Thanks:
Thanks as always for reading my topic. I hope it was informative and if not I hope it was entertaining in some way. Did it convince you to try the Piatella? Or the opposite? Have you tried it? What was yours like? I'd love to hear about what expensive treats you feel are worth spending out on in the comments. Thanks.

Totally with you mate amazing stuff but I can't get past the price.
I had the myconauts cosmic gelato which is half the price of this one, but I still can't bring myself to pay it.
I noticed how fast it hit too, I described it as hitting fast like an extract but with the full body hit and stone of a bubble hash.
Myconauts extracts are definitely worth trying , I think the Pink Goo was probably my favourite.
I just got an order from TheGoodStuff and his menu is 🤯ATM

I noticed how fast it hit too, I described it as hitting fast like an extract but with the full body hit and stone of a bubble hash.
Myconauts extracts are definitely worth trying , I think the Pink Goo was probably my favourite.

This bit was for a treat so I let the price slide. But for me it wasn't worth the extra dollars except for the prestige of trying it and understanding it in real terms. It did however pack an extra punch for sure.
I ordered from myco previously but last time I looked they had a lucky dip. I usually get a crumble wax from Dr distillate along with my RSO and D9 order currently.
Tgs I noticed have a static range that looks great at the min. I'll probably pick up another treat bit come payday.

The statics are definitely worth getting mate I have the apple fritters and the mac, stunning terps on both, beautiful hash and great value👌
I've got my eye on that for payday. I had the apple hash rosin from tgs which I thought was lovely in my dab pen. Such a great hash flavour and really smooth. I might pick up another bargain mimosa too as that was great value.
Thanks man. Appreciate you guys being true to your word and saving it for me. And despite me whining about the price I'm grateful you sourced it for LB folk to try. I do understand the price is high for you too - hopefully that's clear in the topic.
No problem with that mate. We understand we're on the pricier side, but we feel its justified.
Only qualm is the comment on the jars.
We use miron violetglass. Considered the best for storing your wares. More info here

I did say it was a premium pot and I am keeping it! But yes I have had what I thought was a fancier one. Externally it's cubic but inside it's parabolic. Made from some kind of white ceramic I think.
Solventless extracts are more expensive. Cap junky is a strong strain and hits hard. Alot of these crumbles and resins now are crc'd to shit i just don't trust them anymore.
I appreciate the extra price reflects the extra effort put in. I guess it's hard to know the full process a crumble has been through. I've had a bad extract too which made me more cautious about them full stop. Not least because of the effort to clean it back out my dab pen coil.
wonderful review mate. precisely what LB needs from the buyer side. appreciate you taking the time out roo, keep them coming!
currently working my way through your fine works good sir. its big help whittling the list (going to plunge on some GC PK asap!) and hoping (once i've got something worth saying) to add some comparable reviews of my own. hats off
Thanks man. I'll look forward to reading your stuff when you post it up. I'm sure everyone has something worth saying mate. Just be yourself. The PK black is a lovely hash. Not crazy strong of course but it's just lovely to smoke. It's sticky so pop it in the fridge for ten mins and it'll be easier to handle. Especially out of a plastic pack.

Who remembers buckets & hot knives?

Who remembers buckets & hot knives?
I'm currently looking at different products like the mighty and the ace cup. The bottle of the latter product made me think of what we'd do back in the day to maximise our low strength hash by using a bottle and a bucket or a bottle and hot knives.
For those who have no idea what I'm on about:
Buckets:
A bucket would use a bucket of water - hence the name which I guess shows a lack of creativity of the period - with a large coke bottle with the bottom cut out in it and with a tin foil gauze on top of the open screw thread. There was a knack to lifting the bottle while you held a lighter to the hash to get it burning and fill the bottle with smoke as the water sucks air as you lift the bottle. It was possible to screw this up and have a hash eruption that would fire hot rocks in all directions over your mates parents carpet. Assuming you'd avoided that, you'd remove the gauze and put your mouth over the end of the bottle. Then inhale the smoke as you push the bottle back down into the bucket. This would fill your lungs with thick hash smoke.
Hot knives:
This involves another bottle with no bottom. Best to use glass - like a milk bottle. You'd raid the cutlery drawer and heat up two knives in a gas burner flame until really hot but not red hot. And yes the naming convention was still very much, 'it does what it says on the tin'. There were no ace hot knives or a mighty bucket as far as I'm aware. You'd pick up a tiny bit of hash with the hot knives and squeeze them together inside the bottle. It instantly turned most of the hash into thick smoke which you'd inhale from the bottle.
Other ways of heating the knives involved wedging them into all sorts of electrical appliances where knives probably should not be wedged.
Does anyone still do these? I've not even heard them mentioned for years. Seems a pretty basic and brutal process compared to the fancy devices you can get now. The ace cup looks so civilised in comparison. Like comparing an iPhone to two yoghurt pots on a length of string.

Remember them? I made a little bucket the other week! I fancied a bit of nostalgia so I used an old bucket from the garden, a cut up 2L bottle and a bit of foil on the top, just to keep it classic. A few lung-busting hits and I was flying!
I also made a lung a while back. For anyone who doesn't know, it's the same concept as a bucket, you cut a 2L bottle at the bottom and tape a carrier bag to it. When you burn the weed at the top, usually on tin foil, you pull the carrier bag out and it draws all the smoke in. You then take the foil off, inhale until the bag is back in, cough a lung out and get high as all hell!
Maybe this week I'll get my grubby wee mitts on some hash and put the blowtorch to the butterknife! Every time I've done hot knives I've whitey'd so wish me luck! Haha

Yes, along with drainers, and bottle bags. I mate of mine, had a bucket set up in his shed, well into his 30s. I think the bottle bag was the most elaborate, and used to try and fuck up your friends as much as possible (Stitching). Large Bottle, cut of bottom sellotape bread bag round the bottom, pushed up inside, pull the bag down to draw through the bowl in the top of the bottle. Horrific. God I miss the nineties. G
Think we called that a lung. Was like a bucketless bucket. Seems ridiculous now. Yet I guess there was beauty to the dedication and innovative nature of it all.
Yeah, I have heard it called a lung. But more of an innovative name for something made from a bottle, and a bag. 😂
Bottle bag is much more fitting name for the time period. Perhaps they started calling it a lung, not based on the mechanics of the device but on what you sacrifice to use it.
Used to have a bucket as a permanent fixture in my bedroom when I was about 18/19, along with a 4/5 litre Robinsons squash bottle in it, used to have 2 or 3 before I went to work everyday, fucking mental times, proper lung fuckers!!
Ah. You are that guy! I used to visit someone who called their bucket a bouquet like on the TV show. "anyone want a bouquet?" Kinda quaint now but happy times. I guess the availability of the original skunk removed the need to chase the extra hit.
Traffic or police cones in a bath of water used to properly fuck us up, would struggle to inhale a 1L bottle of smoke these days though!! If only I was 20yrs old again,lol
I'd actually not heard of that - what a brilliant mental image I've got now though. That's absolutely the spirit I'm referring to. I'd turn my lungs inside out if I was to attempt a bucket now.
I remember Stonehenge 81 and Glasto of that era, hot knife stands all over. 20p for a hit, great times.
Before my time but I remember back when it seemed like no one really cared about it being around. I used to go to a pub where everyone smoked openly. Cheap beer, crap local bands, openly available pot. A formative place to be as a youngster.
Christ I used to transfuse the blades in my old nanna's kitchen with grandad kenny!

Get a 2 litre plastic soft drink bottle and empty it (keep the cap). Make a small hole near the very bottom at the side (we favoured burning it). Get a sturdy foil milk bottle cap (thick foil works but isn't as good) and poke loads of holes in it with a pin. Plug hole with finger and fill with cold tap water. Careful position the foil on top, add hash, light hash and as it starts to flame release the water so the smoke fills the bottle. When there's still some water left plug the hole, take the foil off, cover the top with your palm, shake the cold water through the smoke, inhale smoke. Probably cough. Helps if you have a dextrous friend, or 4 arms. When finished, scrunch up bottle, add cap, discard.
Names must have travelled by mouth back then. Like someone got talking on a train to someone from London or Newcastle where waterfalls were a thing and migrated the concept. In the internet era that can happen in minutes. Yet regionally we still can't agree the name of a bread roll. Bap, cob etc.
🤣 Takes me back first way I ever smoked weed, used to call it a "death bong" and it absolutely killed me that night🤣
Youngish guy here my friend was all about theses called them gravity bongs that was when i was 16 damn good times
I don't recall ever trying one of these but can vaguely remember hearing about them. I'd forgotten about the nice quality tinfoil of the old milk bottle tops too. Simple times man.
Everytime I roll my sleeves up, I remember hot knives...
Probably forty-odd years ago now, this patchouli oil drenched greebo who was peripheral to our "gang" asked me if I knew hot knives could burn twice.
The very stoned, slightly intimidated, teenage me replies "no"; at which point he lays one of the recently used knives on my forearm...
How we laughed!
Not quite as loudly as when we threw his bike off the mulit-storey car park.
Or when I saw him in a club and took all the shrooms he was flogging and gave them away.
Buckets? Well, there was this time...

That's a dangerous trick to play when you've got a glass bottle in easy reach! Would probably deserve it just for the oil. I'd forgotten about that stuff. Usually sold in shops with the purple velvet scales in the window and worn by people who'd visited the head shop and bought one of everything. They'd sit rolling up with rainbow rips, in a rolling mat, with special roach card.
I never really got the whole hot knives thing, it seemed really gnarly to me.
2 or 3 litre buckets though - totally classy ;-)
i feel a bit ashamed to admit that i used to revel in giving weed virgins immensely strong buckets as their first introduction to cannabis, and then sit back and watch them lose their minds. (i was 15 - not old enough to know better?)
wondering if anyone else indulged in this kind of terrible behaviour?

They definitely did! I was personally not bad for this. I'm basically like an angel obviously. But I can remember a few places I hung out would set people up with a sizeable bucket and then watch them melt to some Floyd or something spacey. Simpler times. Although the weeds much better now of course.
Back in the mid 90’s a mate of mine worked the night shift at the local Jet petrol station, one slow Sunday night he emptied one of the forecourt spillage buckets to get blasted and ended up passing out in the back, the dickhead lol
A guy I used to buy off had the bucket in the shed always ready to go. He would do half g buckets all day long until he ended up with popcorn lung and it fucked him up big time.
Know your limits, too much is too late in some cases.
Nothing hits like 2 litres of dank smoke though😶🌫️

Smoking copious amounts of anything will not do anyone any favours. I guess we all try to balance that. My lungs are definitely not as happy as if I didn't smoke. Up until recently I managed to keep a good level of fitness which I guess helped.
My first try of an extract made me feel like a teenager who'd just sat back from their first hotknife. I guess that's what the crazy kids aim for these days.

The Battle of the 2 Mimosas
Orange Fan:
I am a huge fan of orange leaning strains. You only need to scroll my profile page to see how true this is if you're not aware already. So I won't repeat myself too much.
This month I picked up a couple of Mimosa variations. So I've decided to put them head to head and see which I like best. Like a Mimosa bake off. Which is the Mimosta and which is the Mimonster?
The Two Contenders:
Ladies and Gentlemen, in the orange corner, from MJ Concentrates flower range we have -
Mimosa x Orange Punch
https://littlebiggy.net/link/OvIuwt
This was $70 for a qtr
And in the other also orange corner, arriving fresh from The Good Stuff it is -
Mimosa
https://littlebiggy.net/link/1f8PCz
This is an utter bargain at $55 a quarter.
Ready for Battle:
Mimosa gets it's orangeness from the Clementine > Tangie > Orange Bud line.
Orange punch is, I think, created from Orange Bud x Grandaddy Purple. The internet was a wee bit mixed on this so if you know please comment. I'm taking it that the mimosa cross is a double oranger.
Either way both strains have a solid family connection to the original orange genetics we know and love and aren't simply orange by name like many options. I think this will be fun.
- Ding Ding Ding Round 1.
Mimosa x Orange Punch by MJ
The buds are dark, purple, natural leafy buds. Not solid boulders like many bits now. That's okay. Not every bit of weed needs to look like a small furry pebble you could skim across a lake. You can smell the orange immediately. It's a very distinctive aroma. In fact this bud is so nicely coloured you can probably smell it from the photograph.
The buds are a little sticky and as such didn't love the vacuum pack or postal process. That's a shame but not huge amounts of harm done and resting in a jar for a couple of days has made it happier. In the grinder the scent is unleashed and the promise of a good orange smoke is made.
The promise is delivered upon as I take my first few puffs. We are in orange country. This is a very grownup and evolved orange flavour - like a posh dark chocolate orange bar as you inhale the luxurious thick smoke.
One of the core effects I like of the original orange strains, other than the buckets of dank sour flavour, is the creeping stone. It sneaks up on you. And this is a sneaker. After you stub a follow up stone is delivered over the next fifteen mins or so. It's ticking many of my orange boxes as we progress.
Testing the same bit in the vape it's really nice with tons of flavour coming through. I'm not a huge vaper but this is working for me.
Before I get carried away with this bit I should test the other Mimosa out.
- Ding Ding Ding Round 2
Mimosa by TGS
The buds here look a little bit more scrappy. The colouring and trim are not nearly as impressive. Judged by your eyes alone it's not an amazing bud. It's lucky we have a nose too which immediately tells my eyes they are wrong. In the grinder this is confirmed as oily orange aromas are set free to stink out your whole house.
Taste wise this is beautiful. Really deep citrus sour orange flavour comes through in every puff. The smoke is not as thick and chocolatey as the Mimosa x Orange but it tips it on that original dank flavour note by a small margin. It's like dunking your head in a barrel of oranges with deep sour notes that seem to pop up and slap you in the face like the old tango advert fella.
Strength wise it's comparable and may actually be a fraction ahead on initial stone than the punch cross. Will it have the follow up orange thump of its orange crossed cousin though?
[I waited 15 mins but you don't have to]
It does but not to the same degree. More strength was delivered initially but the follow up hit was not as ramped as with the cross. The orange punch side lives up to its name by giving you an extra whack.
In the vape the pure mimosa may have a little more strength but a little less flavour. Hard for me to call. Not least as I've been blazing orange buds all day.

The Decision Goes to Points:
There's no clear winner here except for me. I am stoned on orange buds. Other than bag appeal which the Mimosa x Orange Punch easily took despite being squished, there were arguable positives for both in every part of my hugely scientific and thoroughly measured and conducted orange test.
The pure mimosa did edge ahead on a few core points despite looking the scrappier bud and being the cheaper option. I guess, if I had to declare a winner, I'd have to say that it edged it ahead of its prettier cousin not least due to it being a lot of orange for a bargain price.
Although if I primarily vaped I may say the opposite. Also the follow up stone on the punch cross was like the warm feeling of an old friend visiting unexpectedly. This is a very difficult choice to make.
Which Orange Strain Should I Buy?
If you truly want my advice as to which orange strain you should buy, my final words on the subject are simple. You should buy both of them of course!
Both these vendors provided a decent service and both of these strains are great and will make you happy and orangey if you buy them. You've already picked a winner simply by choosing Orange as your strain flavour. Thank you to both MJ and TGS.
Thanks
As always thanks for reading my topic. I hope it's been informative and has further persuaded you to go orange. If not I hope it was entertaining in some way. I'll see you in the next topic.

PK Gold Seal Squidgy Black
by

PK Gold Seal Squidgy Black
A fella asked earlier for tasty hash recommendations and I suggested this. Then it got me thinking about writing about why. So here we are.
The PK Gold Seal, which I've routinely been calling Afghan Gold Seal for some reason, has been one of my favourite hashes on LB. I've bought this about 4 times now which makes it all the more remarkable I didn't remember the name correctly. I've not been able to resist a little side order of this nostalgic but hard to name hash with my regular main weed order from GC.
Solid Body Stone:
While it's a better grade of hash than many of the commercial hashes available, it's not LA Barz. It's not the Piatella. You've not found a secret cheap rocket fuel hash. It does however have a solid stone that slowly wraps itself around you like a comfort blanket and a beautiful exotic flavour of the past.
In terms of power and effect, while it's nicer than many basic commercials, you wouldn't have to go that far to find something that benchmarks much better.
Why Do I Love It?
So what's the deal here? Why am I loving this apparently average hash? Why has this been one of my most popular products? What am I getting from this?
I don't exactly know all the answers. I do know that it's the exact hash that I'd been searching for though because since I first tried it I've ordered it on repeat. I've been through a lot of cheap commercial grade hashes to get to this point. So let's explore together. I'm going to roll one up to start figuring things out as we go.
Cannabis Stress Putty:
It's very satisfying to roll up with. As it's squidgy it's quite therapeutic to tease into a snake. Like a cannabis stress putty. This leaves your fingers smelling of spice and herbs as though you were a chef or you worked in a medicinal herb garden. It's not super sticky so you don't end up with fingers like Spiderman like with some fancy hash.
It takes me back to some of the first hashes I bought. We usually got red seal and it usually wasn't really that good. The quality here is a long way from how it was back then but it definitely pulls at the nostalgia strings and makes me think back to simpler times (digital watches etc).
Ready For Action:
The pre-smoke rolling phase is important. Well, not important like world peace, but core to the overall ritual of smoking. And with this gold seal I feel well prepped and smelling like a spice farmer who's finished a tough day, erm, farming spices and is going to sit and have a cuppa. This is a strong pre-roll phase. I'm excited before I even light up. No I don't know much about either farming or spices. I got out of my depth very quickly there I'll give you that.
I'm rolling the gold seal up with some Cherry weed and a small bit of tobacco. The cherry adds a fair bit of the power but I find hash is a bit crap rolled in joints on its own. This is a lovely combo with the added contentment of rolling the hash snake so it'll be nicely nestled in weed and tobacco and take a nice central position like a hotdog in a roll.
Back to the Future:
This smokes like a dream. The hash boils into clouds of distinctive tasting smoke that you only seem to get from a handful of traditional old hashes. This vastly overpowers the cherry weed flavour. You don't tend to get a red glowing fire snake poking out the front as the hash all burns away cleanly into smoke. It really is lovely stuff. The unique taste is medicinal, like a Victorian cough remedy or a botanical drink. It's dandelion and burdock but as a smoky medicine. A really truly divine flavour that simultaneously takes me back to the past and forward to the future.
Flavour Craver:
It's arguably got some strength - it is cannabis after all - although I feel it's the slow burning taste I'm loving the most. This is a flavour-craver. It's not just THC going into my bloodstream. I could achieve that with tablets. This is why I smoke. It's a whole multi-sensory experience.
Indiana Jones Scent Vision
(yes really, stay with me here):
Certainly, every one of the gold seal smokes I've rolled I've enjoyed immensely. Hence why I keep buying it. The aroma as it smoulders away is incredible.
As I inhale and absorb that spicy scent, I'm instantly transported to a bustling market built on sand in some exotic place with a blistering climate. People are haggling over prices of carpet and pottery. If Indiana Jones rocked up he'd not look out of place inside of my scent vision. Although I might leave at that point. I have seen the movies. Shit will kick off.
I've not had any commercial level of hash that I love as much as this or that I could write about at this length or that would make me invoke Indiana Jones as part of a vision of how great it is. This is like the holy grail of cheap retro flavoured hash. Maybe. I've not tried them all to be fair. It's nice though.
Spliffs / Pipes / Bongs
I've had this hash in my pipe and my bong as well. They had been in storage for years but I couldn't resist trying this out as it just burns so clean and tasty. It's lovely with thick smooth clouds of smoke.
Finally:
So there we have it. If a hash induced Indiana Jones scent vision is what you're after then you'll likely love this hash too.
I hope as always this topic was informative and if not I hope it was entertaining at least. Thanks for reading and I'll see you next time.
Lastly....
Hash Buyer Top Tip:
If you buy a soft sticky hash like this and it's stuck in plastic, pop it in the fridge for a while and then it's easy to peel off.
The PK Gold Seal, which I've routinely been calling Afghan Gold Seal for some reason, has been one of my favourite hashes on LB. I've bought this about 4 times now which makes it all the more remarkable I didn't remember the name correctly. I've not been able to resist a little side order of this nostalgic but hard to name hash with my regular main weed order from GC.
Solid Body Stone:
While it's a better grade of hash than many of the commercial hashes available, it's not LA Barz. It's not the Piatella. You've not found a secret cheap rocket fuel hash. It does however have a solid stone that slowly wraps itself around you like a comfort blanket and a beautiful exotic flavour of the past.
In terms of power and effect, while it's nicer than many basic commercials, you wouldn't have to go that far to find something that benchmarks much better.
Why Do I Love It?
So what's the deal here? Why am I loving this apparently average hash? Why has this been one of my most popular products? What am I getting from this?
I don't exactly know all the answers. I do know that it's the exact hash that I'd been searching for though because since I first tried it I've ordered it on repeat. I've been through a lot of cheap commercial grade hashes to get to this point. So let's explore together. I'm going to roll one up to start figuring things out as we go.
Cannabis Stress Putty:
It's very satisfying to roll up with. As it's squidgy it's quite therapeutic to tease into a snake. Like a cannabis stress putty. This leaves your fingers smelling of spice and herbs as though you were a chef or you worked in a medicinal herb garden. It's not super sticky so you don't end up with fingers like Spiderman like with some fancy hash.
It takes me back to some of the first hashes I bought. We usually got red seal and it usually wasn't really that good. The quality here is a long way from how it was back then but it definitely pulls at the nostalgia strings and makes me think back to simpler times (digital watches etc).
Ready For Action:
The pre-smoke rolling phase is important. Well, not important like world peace, but core to the overall ritual of smoking. And with this gold seal I feel well prepped and smelling like a spice farmer who's finished a tough day, erm, farming spices and is going to sit and have a cuppa. This is a strong pre-roll phase. I'm excited before I even light up. No I don't know much about either farming or spices. I got out of my depth very quickly there I'll give you that.
I'm rolling the gold seal up with some Cherry weed and a small bit of tobacco. The cherry adds a fair bit of the power but I find hash is a bit crap rolled in joints on its own. This is a lovely combo with the added contentment of rolling the hash snake so it'll be nicely nestled in weed and tobacco and take a nice central position like a hotdog in a roll.
Back to the Future:
This smokes like a dream. The hash boils into clouds of distinctive tasting smoke that you only seem to get from a handful of traditional old hashes. This vastly overpowers the cherry weed flavour. You don't tend to get a red glowing fire snake poking out the front as the hash all burns away cleanly into smoke. It really is lovely stuff. The unique taste is medicinal, like a Victorian cough remedy or a botanical drink. It's dandelion and burdock but as a smoky medicine. A really truly divine flavour that simultaneously takes me back to the past and forward to the future.
Flavour Craver:
It's arguably got some strength - it is cannabis after all - although I feel it's the slow burning taste I'm loving the most. This is a flavour-craver. It's not just THC going into my bloodstream. I could achieve that with tablets. This is why I smoke. It's a whole multi-sensory experience.
Indiana Jones Scent Vision
(yes really, stay with me here):
Certainly, every one of the gold seal smokes I've rolled I've enjoyed immensely. Hence why I keep buying it. The aroma as it smoulders away is incredible.
As I inhale and absorb that spicy scent, I'm instantly transported to a bustling market built on sand in some exotic place with a blistering climate. People are haggling over prices of carpet and pottery. If Indiana Jones rocked up he'd not look out of place inside of my scent vision. Although I might leave at that point. I have seen the movies. Shit will kick off.
I've not had any commercial level of hash that I love as much as this or that I could write about at this length or that would make me invoke Indiana Jones as part of a vision of how great it is. This is like the holy grail of cheap retro flavoured hash. Maybe. I've not tried them all to be fair. It's nice though.
Spliffs / Pipes / Bongs
I've had this hash in my pipe and my bong as well. They had been in storage for years but I couldn't resist trying this out as it just burns so clean and tasty. It's lovely with thick smooth clouds of smoke.
Finally:
So there we have it. If a hash induced Indiana Jones scent vision is what you're after then you'll likely love this hash too.
I hope as always this topic was informative and if not I hope it was entertaining at least. Thanks for reading and I'll see you next time.
Lastly....
Hash Buyer Top Tip:
If you buy a soft sticky hash like this and it's stuck in plastic, pop it in the fridge for a while and then it's easy to peel off.
Wonderful write up mate it must be some good stuff 😂 Sounds exactly what im looking for. Cheers paul
That is a lovely take on things, Roo. Whilst the modern tech hashes are expertly crafted, beautifully clean and flavourful with often euphoric highs, sometimes a modern or updated take on the classics can really whip you back in time twenty or thirty years.
Nostalgia hash is powerful stuff : )
Nostalgia hash is powerful stuff : )
I've got a few bits of hash and extract at the min but I keep dipping into the gold seal. It's a really nice smoke with a unique and unmistakable smell and flavour. Perhaps representing something lost in modern hash making beyond just nostalgia.
Nostalgia is the word my friend, takes me back gone 20 years for gold seal. Puts me back in college..Had my eye on this one a while, good price and you might have convinced me

If hash were a religion would Piatella be its god?

If hash were a religion would Piatella be its god?
Dearly beloved we are gathered here today to worship hash mastery at its finest. There is Spanish Piatella hash available on LB (linked).
Look at the divine fudgy goodness & rich fawny colouring. Just looking at it, every cell in my body yearns to have its stoney and spiritual wonders racing around inside and filling all my senses with joy. Will it submerge my brain with the bliss it looks to my eyes?
Someone has put an awful lot of time and care into an artisan process to produce this stuff. And it's a long haul process from what I've read with a number of key stages that really need to go right.
It's hard for me to justify the spend on this at five times the cost of the best hash I've ever had, I have to admit. Literally I have to admit it before I spend what I can't afford. Don't do that folks. If I was a rock star or had more disposable income I'd be all over it though. Unless my lottery ticket is luckier than it usually is there'll not be a new BigRoo review incoming for this.
Please can one of the LB high rollers out there buy some - take the pilgrimage on behalf of us all - and write an in depth review so I (we) may live vicariously through your thoughts, words & feelings. Thank you.

A few thoughts:
Piatella is a brand name, like Iphone or BMW, not all cars are BMWs, not all cold cure water hash is piatella, only Uncles Farm can call their hash piatella, it's essentially a trademark.
Cold cure water hash is probably the best form of hash as it doesn't loose anything in the heat/press like rosin does, it doesn't contain lots of particulate and plant material like flower rosin does.
The only thing that stops cold cure from being the top dawg for me is that it's not full melt, meaning it leaves quite a bit of residue in your dab device.
If we can get to the place where we get nitrogen fresh frozen, -40 degree ice wash, cold cure full melt hash then I think we will have reached the peak of what is humanly possible with resin.
Also I think Rux has splashed on some so you should get that review soon, this Jedi isn't quite ready to splash yet.

Thanks. Informative reply. Even if I had spare coins I'd struggle to justify the cost here... Maybe... . Mr Rux - I'm needing you to deep dive this experience.
Yeah, okay. Unfortunately I'll be working from Wednesday to Saturday so may need time to consider it. It's a hard life, isn't it?
Yeah. Sounds rough. I'm lucky I've not got any artisan hash to burden me. Thoughts and prayers.
Personally thought it was overrated each time I gave it go. And it was real deal “Piatella” I found it strong and flavourful but nothing close to worth what it goes for. It is excellent stuff no doubt but no way is it 100+ a g excellent.
When we next stock some piatella, we'll give a discounted gram so you can give us a review.
That would be an awesome thing to happen. I'll be more than happy to sit & write how I feel as I test it. I've liked doing the few reviews I've written previously. Thanks THC. This is how Charlie felt when he pulled out that golden ticket.

My New Year's Resolution for 2025 is -
by
BigRoo
My New Year's Resolution for 2025 is -
As we reflect upon the past year and countdown to the new one it's customary to get completely spangled and propose a radical shift in your life that you have no real long term intention of committing to once your brain is back at it's regular capacity to function. This year though I think I've come up with something manageable.
So, in the style of a reality TV show announcement, my new years resolution for 2025 is... [add tense music] [extensive pause] is... [additional long pause] is... [one more pause for added tension] is... [deep breath] is... to keep getting stoned. We have a winner.
It's predictably more business as usual than an actual resolution but I like smoking weed and it helps with pain. I'd like to claim it's medicinal use only but I definitely enjoy blazing far too much to fully convince anyone of that. However, as resolutions go, I've a high chance of sticking to this one.
So What's for 2025?
I'll likely keep picking at Green Cats bud menu. It's hard to fault price or quality with some truly exceptional bits popping up regularly.
Orange is Nice
However, the one flaw in the GC menu, as well as many other vendors offerings, is a lack of Orange flavours. There's Gelato or Kush crossed with everything but, in my opinion, a lack of Orange.
I get that I'm quite lonely in my Orange Bud Fanclub but I'm not completely alone. There are others. Mimosa is not the only orange strain either so LB vendors please open your hearts and your shops to the orangeness ticket. List it and they will come. Possibly. Don't quote me on that. They might not come. I'm copying a line from a film. It's probably a poor indicator for weed vending. Blame Kevin if in fact they don't come.
What Else?
I missed getting Piatella from The Hash Collective at Xmas as I'd overspent already when it came online so I'd hope to pick some of that up and some top spec WPFF hash as well later in the year - is it the strongest stuff ever? It's a question worth exploring.
I Am Old
I've really enjoyed having some old school gold seal over Xmas from GC for that taste of nostalgia. It's a perfect example of that old sticky black hash and probably much nicer than back in the day while retaining the essential essence of the past. Yes, it won't hit you like a cold cure jungle boys hash or a barz LA but it's still a lovely enjoyable smoke. So I expect some further old school sessions throughout the year when I see an old man's product listed and can't help but take a stumble down stoner memory lane.
You CAN Teach an Old Dog New Tricks
I'll likely update my dabbing equipment and also my vape this year. I'm liking these modern devices and chilling out like a cool kid. I'll probably try some other carts this year too although I'm less convinced by these.
More Extracts
I'll be on the lookout for the tastiest and smoothest extracts at decent prices of course. I still like a bargain. Currently I favour wax in my dab pen but I should probably experiment more.
What About Edibles?
I'll definitely continue on with my RSO and D9 cookies. That's the theme this evening in fact. It's hard to beat when you really want to be blasted into space. Which I do.
I've actually got a new recipe for cookies that I'll likely write about in the new year. It started when I didn't have a cookie mix packet so I listed the stuff I did have in the cupboard onto Chat GPT and asked it how to make cookies with it. So AI can even help you get baked it turns out. It really will take over the world one day.
Happy New Year - 2025
So that's it, happy new year LB folks. This has been my first year on LB. I like it. Cheap quality weed and a community of potheads; what more could you want?!
I hope, just like a stereotypical Miss World contestant, for world peace in '25. Try to enjoy whatever you are doing - this is good advice all year round not just tonight. Let's make 2025 awesome.
Thank You
Thanks as always for reading my topic. I hope it was informative and if not I hope it was entertaining at least. I appreciate all the interaction with you fellow stoners throughout the year and look forward to three hundred and sixty five more days of it before another post like this.
I'd love to hear your stoner plans for NYE and for 2025 so jump into the comments below and gimme the good stuff.

Thanks man. You too. Happy New Year. I'll be readily applying myself to my resolution. I reckon I've got this! To be fair I actually do have stuff to achieve this year, I just don't tend to state it as a resolution on Nye as it cues you up to fail.
Hi BigRoo!
We're new here and just started to get settled here at LB.
Stumbled across your new year topic and love seeing the community we have here!
We want to wish you a happy new year, and wish many more great years to come!
As for your new year resolutions, I'm sure you'll smash it!
And we completely agree, as a smoker myself, I do miss having a sesh with a orange flavor joint lit up but hey, its something we can all work on here at LB.
All the best BigRoo, and we hope to see you around LB!

I just checked your page out. A lot of tasty looking buds there mate. Wish you guys all the best with your vending on LB. What's your RS11 like? Is it the full sweetshop flavour?
Appreciate it BigRoo.
As for your the RS11, I would say its sweet, but not as sweet as the Cherry Pie and Tropicana Cherry we have.
Hope this helps BigRoo!

Nice write up my pleasure to be at your service I don’t normally big up my listings on peoples posts but I had to let you know the Tropical Cherry is maybe something your looking for.. Its flavour profile is like a Mimosa/Grapefruit vibe I think you’ll like it!

Thanks man. I had my eye on the ztarburst at the min. I've still got couple bits stashed away as I didn't know when everything would be running smoothly again with post backlog etc. I'll check out the cherry.
Just checked the cherry on leafly. Has the tangie / California orange genetics from the Tropicana. Reckon I'll be ordering some of that.
Completely just remembered... Orange flavor...
That is our Miami aka Miami Heat, it has a strong citrus orangey aroma to it, and one of my favorites out the bunch.
Think my new year resolution is going to be getting more Orange flavors from now on! :D

For me, it's an underused flavour. I think some people are really averse to Orange the way I avoid almost every haze though (silver bubble is an exception for some reason).
Miami looks interesting and is a bit of a mystery strain on leafly. Might be tempted in the future but I ordered some Cherry this morning from GC. Has direct genetic line through Tangie to California orange so -might- have my favoured orange flavouring in there.

You're right, can't remember the last time I came across anything which is orange dominant.
Any reason for avoiding haze? I've personally always been a fan since I took my first trip to Amsterdam and brought Super Silver Haze.
Hope you enjoy the sesh with Cherry either way BigRoo!

There's been a couple on LB over the last year but it's very rare. There's some with hints of it like the Citrodelic Sunset that the Spacemen had for a while. I bought that a few times.
I think the haze thing is twofold. Firstly there was so much lemon haze about for so long that in the end I couldn't tell if it'd genuinely got worse or if I'd just started to hate it. I think the latter because the same was true of blue cheese but I'd have that again. The second thing is haze tends to make me a bit peaky. I don't get paranoid but smoking haze I can more easily understand why people do. My favoured weeds are nearly all indica or indica dominant hybrids. There are of course exceptions but I expect 90 percent of the weed I really love fits this pattern.

Which vendors are staying open for Christmas 2024?

Which vendors are staying open for Christmas 2024?
I've got a stash. I'll likely be fine. I've got about 20 small bits of different weed stashed and some fancy frozen hash -hopefully- in the post. It's delayed but I've not given up hope yet.
Despite my stash, sometimes I get a wee bit carried away and I get ahead of my schedule so it would be useful to have a shortlist of vendors staying open.
If you are a vendor or know of a vendor who's staying open please let everyone know in the comments.
I know some people will have waited on payday or will have had a tough month budgeting for Xmas so will be looking to get some bits in. I believe it'd be a useful reference for the LB community.
Thanks for helping folks.

Dk if carts are your thing brother but I’m posting things every day but 25-26th
Have a nice Christmas brother 💚

I tried a 50/50 live resin cart a while back from another vendor. It was pretty useful to have but I've not rushed to buy another. I prefer to use a wax extract in my little dab pen now. Seems to me the best mix of flavour and hit. But thanks for commenting. I know vaping is huge now so I'm sure someone will need you. Happy Christmas mate.
Here for all your bud needs. Free pre roll for every first order.
Happy Christmas all!
Love Jimmy

Nice! It seems this post is bringing new vendors to my attention. The name Jimmy always makes me think of the song - "I wish I had a name like Jimmy recard...."

The vendors who mostly got me stoned in 2024

The vendors who mostly got me stoned in 2024
As the year draws to a close and we are knee deep in department stores brainwashing us with their visions of unfathomably wholesome Christmases in order to sell us more shit we don't need, it's nice to look back and reflect on the year. In this case I'm reflecting upon the lovely LB vendors that have ensured I have remained continually stoned.
Thank you to all the good people who keep this website running and make it what it is. That includes the devs, the vendors and the consumers who share their experiences and help us choose what to buy - and what to avoid. Thanks to all of you too for reading my stoned drivel on a regular basis. I genuinely appreciate it.
This vendor list is correct as of December 2024. If any or all of these vendors fall apart after this point please don't blame me. It's not my fault. I've written about my own experiences. Other experiences may differ but it doesn't mean I didn't get the service I've stated below.
Always look through ratings, recent reviews, and topics to see where a vendor is at and make your own decision.
If in doubt message the vendor. The response or lack of a response will probably be a good indication of whether you want to order from them or not.
However, do give vendors enough time to reply. They are selling weed, they're not your wife.
Here's my 2024 vendor list:
-----
Green Cat
https://littlebiggy.net/link/9GReqt
Overall:
It's no secret that my current favourite weed vendor is Green Cat. Trust in the cartoon cat. They've been super reliable and have always delivered decent quality stuff that matches the listing.
Products:
They have some high quality cheapies, some keenly priced imports, and overall offer great value. One of the best bits of weed I've had came from Green Cat. It was Blue Nerds and was a delicious blue / silver taste with a creeping and lengthy stone. The best value weed I've had also came from GC - the Cookie Dawg. Their menu isn't huge but does change frequently so there is something new to try.
I've not had any hash from GC yet but they often get a quality commercial in stock. I've actually got a bit of Gold Seal on order currently, mostly for a trip down memory lane rather than an expectation it'll be a face sweating hash.
Service and Delivery:
Stealth is on point, delivery tends to be fast and communication is good. $6 delivery cost for tracked 24. You won't go far wrong with GC.
-----
Dr Distillate
https://littlebiggy.net/link/7JrVXL
Overall:
My go-to vendor for distillates and RSO. Fantastic logo. Love the nutty science guy. I regularly buy extracts here too and they've always been lovely. I'm currently going through all the crumble waxes one at a time.
Products:
The product range extends beyond the distillate, RSO, and extracts I usually buy here into different weeds and other cannabis products. I can't vouch for the other products but what I buy is good quality and a fair price.
Service and Delivery:
Quietly reliable vendor that tends to deliver in good time. Delivery costs $5 for a tracked service.

Eddy's Hashbar
https://littlebiggy.net/link/zui7Gg
Overall:
Lots of fancy hash. Fast and reliable with a wide range of products and special offers.
Products:
While hash is the focus there's a range of weed and extract too. I've not had weed from Eddy's so I can't comment but the hash and extracts are spot on. I picked at the sale priced jungle boys cold cure hash for 25 bucks a g for quite a few weeks. Really lovely stuff.
Service and Delivery:
Eddy's is very invested in LB and delivers fast and free. They have Hash Wednesday sales with a number of bargains and there's often a sale item listed. Super reliable top notch vendor with a solid reputation. Eddy's have great communication too.
-----
Shroom of the loom
https://littlebiggy.net/link/XjhiLB
Overall:
High quality vendor with high quality products.
Products:
Great quality weed and extracts - plus mushrooms which I don't do these days but are available so worth mentioning for the more adventurous folk looking to expand their minds. My mind is already big enough from previous expansions.
Alongside high quality weed they also have a few hash options. I've had the Rasta Mafia hash from here a few times and it's a fine bit of commercial hash. Certainly one of the better commercials.
I'd ordered the Tommy Shelby shatter a number of times previously but it's not available now. I was tempted by the red seal hash here but went for GC gold seal for a jaunt down memory lane.
Service and Delivery:
SOTL offers a great service with next level stealth. They're super strict on their quality control and take pride in what they do so you know you're getting something decent when you order here. Delivery is $5 tracked.
-----
Myconauts
https://littlebiggy.net/link/qXvcmh
Overall:
Great value extracts and I love a bargain - not much else to say. Seems like they're building a solid service.
Products:
They usually have a super cheap extract on sale amongst a small list of extracts & concentrates.
Service and Delivery:
They have been solidly reliable for me. I've not spoken to them so can't comment on comms but generally this is a good sign that things have always gone smoothly enough to not need a bit of a chat about anything. Delivery is $6.28
-----
Green Avenger Weed
https://littlebiggy.net/link/t1W3NF
Overall:
Some surprisingly decent bits of commercial hash with fast free delivery.
Products:
A mixture of interesting weed strains and commercial hash. I've ordered hash here a few times and it's been a decent level.
The Simpsons kush is a touch crumble with an old school rocky taste and a heavy kick. It really is better than you expect from the picture.
The titanic hash is dark and oily, needs a bit of heat, but smokes up a charm with an indica stone. It also exceeds the expectation of the picture.
I've not bought weed here for ages but they always have some interesting strains and often have orange leaning flavours.
The reviews have been a bit mixed recently but the bits I had previously were all good and delivered fast. I'm genuinely curious what their current bits are like if anyone's ordered recently?
Service and Delivery:
Personally I've always had my order delivered quickly and it's always been spot on. However it seems I've missed some logistical issues here. Looks like they've taken action in both acknowledging the issues and improving. Delivery is fast and free.
-----
Pistach
https://littlebiggy.net/link/b6VSPq
Overall:
Okay, this is probably a controversial final addition to this list and you certainly roll the dice ordering here but you do get super cheap bud delivered quickly... Usually. I've not ordered here for a while but I've had quite a few orders previously when money is tight.
Products:
A lot of super low cost weed & hash that's often pretty good. The weed tends to be decent for the price, if not always a perfect example of the strain. Quality does vary but if you want to get stoned fast and cheap there's something for you here.
Service and Delivery:
You don't have to go far to find complaints about this vendor. My own ratings have ranged from a 2 to a 10.
My experience though, to be fair, has been largely positive. The biggest frustration for me is sometimes getting poorly chosen substitutions or end of bag shake buds when the last time you ordered the same bit you got a large tasty solid bud.
Communication isn't that great but they've usually responded and sorted out any issues I've had.
If you're low on funds and want something delivered fast and free that'll get you stoned then a Pistach special can save the day.. Usually.
-----
Other Vendors
It's fair to say a number of other vendors here are also excellent but it just happens I don't order from them so much for one reason or another. I guess all of us over time repeat business with the people that fit our needs the best. I'd be interested to hear your own recommendations though in the comments.
Notable mentions would go to Real D who I should order from more often but generally I avoid signed services. TheGoodStuff who also have a great range of hash and products and TheHashCollective who've also got a great range of high quality hashes.
I don't order weed from The Spacemen very often as it's a signed service and costs 9 bucks so isn't the best fit for my life but I've had some lovely bits from them in the past such as the Citrodelic Sunset which was very nice with a lovely orange tang.
The Green Team are also notable and although I've not ordered from them in some time they always had a huge range at a decent price with free delivery and good communications.
Dr Green Thumb has one of the most enticing hash menus that I've never indulged in. One day I will though.
Cannabis Cannibals are a super friendly and interesting LB vendor with a mix of UK grown bits. I like those guys hence why I'm mentioning them.
There are probably other vendors I should mention but have forgotten about. I apologise to them but that's an unfortunate quirk of building your customer base from potheads.
We're Done Here
So that's my non-exhaustive and probably forgetting someone list of core vendors that I mostly ordered from this year. As always I hope it was informative and if not I hope it was entertaining at least.
Please remember to check out vendors yourself. Don't blame me if it goes wrong for you. We're all adults here - surprising as that is.
I'll see you in the next topic. Please jump into the comments and let me know your favourite vendors and experiences.
Thank you to all the good people who keep this website running and make it what it is. That includes the devs, the vendors and the consumers who share their experiences and help us choose what to buy - and what to avoid. Thanks to all of you too for reading my stoned drivel on a regular basis. I genuinely appreciate it.
This vendor list is correct as of December 2024. If any or all of these vendors fall apart after this point please don't blame me. It's not my fault. I've written about my own experiences. Other experiences may differ but it doesn't mean I didn't get the service I've stated below.
Always look through ratings, recent reviews, and topics to see where a vendor is at and make your own decision.
If in doubt message the vendor. The response or lack of a response will probably be a good indication of whether you want to order from them or not.
However, do give vendors enough time to reply. They are selling weed, they're not your wife.
Here's my 2024 vendor list:
-----
Green Cat
https://littlebiggy.net/link/9GReqt
Overall:
It's no secret that my current favourite weed vendor is Green Cat. Trust in the cartoon cat. They've been super reliable and have always delivered decent quality stuff that matches the listing.
Products:
They have some high quality cheapies, some keenly priced imports, and overall offer great value. One of the best bits of weed I've had came from Green Cat. It was Blue Nerds and was a delicious blue / silver taste with a creeping and lengthy stone. The best value weed I've had also came from GC - the Cookie Dawg. Their menu isn't huge but does change frequently so there is something new to try.
I've not had any hash from GC yet but they often get a quality commercial in stock. I've actually got a bit of Gold Seal on order currently, mostly for a trip down memory lane rather than an expectation it'll be a face sweating hash.
Service and Delivery:
Stealth is on point, delivery tends to be fast and communication is good. $6 delivery cost for tracked 24. You won't go far wrong with GC.

Dr Distillate

Hey man great topic, the only vendors that I can see missing from my list this year would be Radar Breeder (linked) who has consistently high quality bud and always a massive selection.
Also Skuda deserves a shout for the budget bud bars, total lifesaver when the budget is tight.
Diamond Extracts have great value d9 which I got 20ml of to fill a load of carts with
I am smoking homegrown bud now so I got myself an advent calendar of assorted extracts from Myconauts and bubble hash from Eddy's which I am hoping will last me well into next year.
💚🎅All the best mate and to all biggas out there 💚

Thanks man. RB is a good shout. I've not ordered there for ages but did have some nice bits. I've seen the bud bars but never tried one. They appeal to me to keep in stock for emergencies. What do they smoke like?
I just ordered the acai frozen top tier hash from Eddy's to stash for Nye. Got some RSO and D9 in and some bits of weed waiting. I'm looking forward to trying the gold seal although I expect it'll mostly be a nostalgia smoke. Perhaps now I'm on LB it'll become a tradition to search out something from my teenage years to smoke at xmas.
Thanks CN. All the best to you too mate.

Definitely worth giving the bud bars a go mate they smoke really well and he usually has an orange variety on the menu.
My orange bud turned out a bit muted😞 but I have got a couple more seeds to try it again next year.
If you're looking to upgrade your extract pen, I just bought the xmax riggo (£63 amazon) and I am really pleased with it, have a look at some videos and see if it would be any good for you.

I will likely get another dab pen as I do like it. I considered the Xmax as my vape is the same brand. I definitely want one that's easier to clean.
I'll pick up a bud bar in the new year and try it out.
Hope your next crop of orange goes well mate. Perhaps it's one of the awkward ones to grow well?

The big problem is the grow room I am using has limited ventilation so it gets a bit hot at times and it's a battle to keep them happy. I am hoping to get a more suitable space sorted next year which should give me a better chance🤞
It’s certainly been a good year Roo😍
I’ve probably had close to a dozen strains from the Druids and they would be my 🥇 for another year. Simply sensational in every sense.
A big new hit for me this year would be RocketDogRonnie who finally bust my shroom cherry with his great advice and hand crafted products. Crazy generous he is the epitome of what a biggy vendor should be…🚀
Green Cat’s Mimosa rocked my Mimosa Wednesdays…as did Eddys Mimosa Crumble…and that Mimozz from THC23!👏
SOTL’s Thomas Shelby Badder was possibly the best extract overall..🏆
And a very special mention goes to both RealD and SensiMart for sourcing the whole Barz LA range of amazing hash. Jeeez I’ve been flying!✈️👨✈️
Finally my competition win of a live resin mix cart from Diamond Extracts surprised me as to how good it was…😶🌫️
Another fantastic year- thank you to everyone and Long Live LB!❤️❤️

I've not ordered from druids but have heard good things. I'll have to address that on the new year. Sensi mart is a good shout as I had the Barz LA from them a couple of times. I knew I'd forget someone!
Thanks so much for the mention mate, really glad you liked the citradellic! You're a big part of the community and it's post like this which really bring customers and vendors together. Have a great Christmas and here's to 2025!
The Citrodelic was a lovely bit - I am very partial to orange tasting strains. I had a few nice bits from you guys through the year. Looking forward to seeing what's on the menu in 2025. Thanks TSM.
brilliant write up glad green avenger got a shout for 2025 give odins devarb a shout its faultless transaction all the very best 👍🏻
Thanks for the shoutout Bigga Roo! I thought you must have forgotten about me but I'm glad I could contribute to your highness! :)
Nice to see a big write up like this and lots of different vendors get a shout out!
My go to this year has been the spacemen - always getting new strains in, super consistent in terms of quality, stealth, and delivery times (the holy trinity).
Got to mention thc23 as well for when I fancy something a bit special, always feel like they are proper connoisseurs who share their fine wares with us on LB.
Shout out to Canadian imports for having the tastiest vape I’ve ever tried (unicorn piss). So bloody good.
Plenty other vendors on here do an amazing job and it’s nice to see so many of them get the recognition for it.

TSM have some lovely bits. The signed service isn't the best fit for me though. I'd heard a lot about the unicorn piss but didn't try. I might seek that out in the new year.
Great write up bud, definitely a few in there I have looked at before and never tried so may well give some a go in future👌
I was waiting for mention of druids magic 🧙♂️ but maybe you haven't tried yet?
Got to say, keep an eye for next crop of ladies and give it a go..promise you won't be disappointed, the whole experience from chat to order, delivery then smoke is next level..and genuinely the reason I very rarely buy bud anywhere else now..
If he made his own hash, he'd have to name it carlesburg😄
Cheers again though, good and interesting read👍

Thanks man. Druids have been mentioned a couple of times but I've not ordered there yet. Will be on my list for 2025 for sure.
Can't argue with any of your choice there BigRoo. The Cat is my goto of choice...never had a bad bit from him and the stealth is 👌
Have purchased of everyone on your list at some point . The only others I would add is The Gentleman dealers , always a big choice at all price levels and super fast delivery.. altho I must admit I've not had anything from them for a few months.
And Oro Verde ...only just discovered this guy, had 2 orders so far. He grows his own greens and by thunder is it good! Stealth is good aswell as comms.. Worth a look
Anyway I hope everyone has a fab Xmas and new year. Cheers 💨💨

Thanks man. I've not ordered from either of them so I'll check them out in the new year. Have a great Christmas & New Year.
Thanks DD - your products are great & you're one of the quietly reliable vendors. I look forward to seeing what you get in stock for 2025.
Wow , thats some proper right up bigroo 👍 i got a very impatient other half , so very brief as ive only been on here 57 days , and used a good few vendors , and must say …. All the stuff I’ve ordered thus far has been banging , but will admit i stll get overly excited just seeing the postie and tend to chuck 10/10 scores with out even trying . So im not connoisseur when it comes to budd , just it turning up does me . But strawberry haze from tgt rocks my boat 🏆🏆 merry xmas 🤶
Thanks man. Yeah there's a lot of great vendors and products on here. Glad you're finding good stuff you like. Still lots to explore!
You should give our extract a go. We've had some very nice reviews on them all. We will be listing some new badder in 1g pots next year as well, so you'll be able to sample before purchasing a large amount :)
I usually only buy small bits. I'm not a big spender but a frequent spender. I was going to order one of your carts to try previously but ended up ordering something else. I'll check your page out though.
We purchase our product in huge bulk. 6LB+ at a time. If you're aware of wholesale prices in bulk, you'd know how it's financially viable.
Well if you don't know the wholesale prices, it will always be a mystery for you. 1lb of live resin can go for as cheap as $900-1500. That's 448 grams. You do the maths.

Let's talk about buying your first electric dab wax pen extract thingymebob
Dithering:
I'd been looking at options for dabbing concentrates for ages. Polly Puff had recommended an Ace Cup a while back but it didn't seem as portable as I wanted and also like it may make more vapour smoke than my little ol' lungs could handle. It's an expensive bit of kit to invest in if I ended up not liking it. So I did what I usually do when I'm unsure: Nothing. Nothing at all.
Commitment:
Recently I decided to finally commit to buying something cheap and simple to dab with just so I could see how it was. Crikey - it's a minefield. There is too much choice. Too many different options, all with a distinct angle on how dabbing should work electronically. There were more shapes and sizes than an Ann Summers catalogue. This also confusingly included a lot of differing technical terminology making direct comparisons tricky.
I think the pen I have is a wax pen. I have no idea if this is actually distinct from a dab pen and if it is, I've no idea why it is or what the difference is.
A wonderful discovery:
This shopping mission did however introduce me to a wonderful chunk of the internet that I didn't know existed. And that is the cannabis paraphernalia reviewers on YouTube.
I saw quite a few wonderful dab equipment reviews where the reviewer takes a few blasts on the device and becomes instantaneously too spangled to say anything useful about what has just happened.
You'd see their spaced out eyes staring through the camera calling out for help. But while their useful words were sparse, the frozen rabbit-in-headlights look was actually a good marker for equipment performance in this instance; their eyes so glazed over it reflected the dazed world they were in almost enough to see into it.
I probably shouldn't condemn them too much as most of my own topics probably read like that too for the exact same reasons.
What did I buy?
I ended up buying a Utillian 2 wax dab pen. The reviewer said, after taking a blast on it, "oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah," before taking a long pause to think carefully what he would add to this but still only managed to add another, "oh yeah." I couldn't help but want a device that could reduce my vocabulary to that of a 1980s Casio calculator and was sold immediately. Oh yeah.
Utillian 2 wax dab pen:
It's a little pen that comes in a storage box a bit bigger than the footprint of a credit card but much fatter, so it's easy to transport the pen without destroying it.
Inside the box, the pen is in two bits which magnetically stick together. It's all magnetic which is pretty cool and simple. There's a charger and dab tool in the box too.
It's got 4 different voltage / heat settings and uses two little coils in a chamber where the extracts go. Was 40 quid from a seed shop online. Did I do well?
In use:
In use, I like it. But I've nothing to compare it too. My lungs won't take a big hit on normal bongs or pipes these days so I only have little but constant puffs on the thing but even that can still be a bit harsh for me. It does get me super stoned though.
There's a bubbly attachment available for it so I might give that a go. It certainly makes extracts go a long way compared to rolling them in a joint.
Thanks:
Thanks for reading my topic. I doubt that you've learned anything because I largely failed to but hopefully it was briefly entertaining.
I would like to better understand dabbing extracts and the best equipment so if it's your bag please jump in and educate me and possibly other folk on LB.

The reviewer said, after taking a blast on it, "oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah," before taking a long pause to think carefully what he would add to this but still only managed to add another, "oh yeah." I couldn't help but want a device that could reduce my vocabulary to that of a 1980s Casio calculator and was sold immediately. Oh yeah.
Utillian 2 wax dab pen:
It's a little pen that comes in a storage box a bit bigger than the footprint of a credit card but much fatter, so it's easy to transport the pen without destroying it.
Inside the box, the pen is in two bits which magnetically stick together. It's all magnetic which is pretty cool and simple. There's a charger and dab tool in the box too.
It's got 4 different voltage / heat settings and uses two little coils in a chamber where the extracts go. Was 40 quid from a seed shop online. Did I do well?
In use:
In use, I like it. But I've nothing to compare it too. My lungs won't take a big hit on normal bongs or pipes these days so I only have little but constant puffs on the thing but even that can still be a bit harsh for me. It does get me super stoned though.
There's a bubbly attachment available for it so I might give that a go. It certainly makes extracts go a long way compared to rolling them in a joint.
Thanks:
Thanks for reading my topic. I doubt that you've learned anything because I largely failed to but hopefully it was briefly entertaining.
I would like to better understand dabbing extracts and the best equipment so if it's your bag please jump in and educate me and possibly other folk on LB.

What do you use for dabbing / smoking extracts?
I love my Core! I have the Minion bubbler for it (not actual name) and the little bad boy really packs a wallop, it has 4 heat settings, reaches temp nice and quickly, there's a knack to keeping it clean for a whole session but its pretty easy to use and maintain once you figure that out, because of the shape of the chamber I would recommend getting a hot drop tool to use with it but i'd recommend that whatever you end up with, I got the Crossing mini HDT to use with mine💜💚
Hi BOW13, I keep looking at the Core but convince myself I don't need one as I only dab occasionally and my Lightning Pen does me fine. But. But... sometimes I wish I had the option to have a big rip bong style without breaking the bank.
Are there any other add ons/upgrades you would recommend for a first time buyer of the Core?

That sort of thing can open a massive rabbit hole and kill the moths in my wallet! Thanks, though. I will have a look.
There are a few mate, Devine Tribe have some decent looking percs, bubblers and even a recycler for it but so far haven't felt like I need to upgrade from the Stargazer.
Thanks. I'm seeing a few thumbs up (thumbs ups?, thumb ups?...) er, recommendations for the Stargazer online. One to consider.
In fact, one of the reasons I have dismissed the Core in the past is the awful looking bubbler (not saying it's bad at what it does, it just looks like some sort of sample jar -"can you fill that up for me? What, from here?")

It's oddly reminiscent of a minion, r2d2, and the tardis centre panel. Perhaps there's a magic shape ratio at work. Nice looking bit of kit though. I think adding bubbles to my dab experience would be an improvement.
I think you might be right!
About to bust R2D2 out now, if only it could do that hover thing R2 does, I wouldn't have to move!

Just a quick photo of the AceCup in action for anyone who doesn’t know it. Not pocket size! I bought the Puffco Proxy for portability and sold it 2 weeks later- truly horrible piece of kit! (replacement atomisers are £60, AceCup £10). It’s worth noting that this has a 510 thread so you can screw any cart in and use that way. Believe me, chugging a glass of Unicorn 🦄 Piss is quite an experience!💥
Two things I like in that picture. DSOTM. I mean, Floyd, what else is there to say? Better than knickers on a washing line.
Secondly, is that Dawkins in the corner? A bit tough to read when stoned but taught me it’s the egg not the chicken, that came first. Oh yeah, back to topic, Ace Cup looking good may have to buy one someday! :)

Hey CB!…yeah DSOTM has to be my Go To stoner album🤤…even after all this time….
There is The Blind Watchmaker by Dawkins on that shelf…certainly blows the noodle 🤯
Hope you are doing well mate?

Hehe…it’s a pretty straightforward atomiser but with a small pump that delivers the vapour into a glass or bubbler using a non return valve, so instead of drawing up vapour with your lungs you can sip or chug it at leisure. The process also means it’s much cooler so sweet on the lungs🤤
No honestly, it sounds really ideal. Do the terps tend to stay or do they burn off in there? Especially when sipping for a while..?
There are 4 cook temperatures and I go at the lowest for great terps. In reality the sipping happens pretty fast😜
I can see the attraction for 510 carts but how does this unit work for traditional dabbing? The cup seems so small that it would instantly fill before the dab has started to get going.
Tried to find some videos about it but really struggled to find any examples 🤷♂️ have you seen the nice dreamz fogger? Same type of fan assisted tech, I guess it could be used with a cup or bag too 🤔

That’s really not a small cup! and you can fill it multiple times from a single dab. How would the vapour be produced before the dab “has started to get going”?…sorry if I’m being thick but I don’t really understand that….
Wouldn’t say it’s small in terms of liquid if you were drinking, but for vapour the only video I found the guy took a sip and the cup emptied instantly. Like when sucking an empty 500ml bottle it instantly collapses quicker than it would vs drinking it 🤷♂️ only video I could find on it though.
My e-dab sessions last 60-80 seconds with a 12-18 sec heat up time and then continuous heat the whole time for id say 4-5 good draws/clouds. If I took 1 hit when it got to temp took a hit and turned it off needing to reheat for the next draw, I feel the quality of subsequent draws would be lacking terps as they’ve been boiling off while you sip the cup? I thought that’s why session/auto fires were so important that people modded it onto their boxes and now all e-rigs seem to have this mode as standard now. Seems like it would take 20+ of those cups to clear it if I didn’t adjust to a much smaller dab, if you see the video linked in my last post that fogger could easily fill 2 volcano bags.
Just noticed it uses a quartz pad for dabs that can’t be cleaned between uses. That’s one of the things Roo and I disliked about coil pens, the inability to cotton swab properly after each dab for untainted flavour! Really crazy they did not make it a full wipeable chamber like the the peak etc. I suppose at only £10/atomiser you could buy a ton of them and switch it out everytime you switch strain, are the pads available separately too?

There is no continuous heat. Pressing the cup down initiates the cycle, and after a few seconds the cup starts to fill with vapour. You release the cup to end the cycle when you have added all the vapour you want. A full cup entirely fills my lungs, I couldn’t do more and I rarely chug for this reason. The bubbler content is less and is designed for single hits. You can repeat this cycle until no more vapour is produced, or go back to it later- but depending on the quality and amount added I’ve always found it good for 4-5 terpy jars minimum.
You can clean the atomisers by soaking them in iso but I don’t think it’s great- I prefer to have a new one with each of my extracts or extract type. Pads are built in. Obviously if you are using carts you don’t use the atomiser.
It’s just one piece of kit, sounds like you’ve got the right rig for you👍

I bought one recently and agree about the ACE. Easy to use, easy to clean and a great delivery system.
Edit: I have tried soaking the glass mat in 100% iso. That seems to work but it's a good idea to take the O rings off as I've found that iso can degrade them.

Is the bubbler glass worth it? I bought an Ace Cup few months ago based on multiple here mentioning it, including you Polly. It looks like the vapour doesnt escape with the bubbler, or does it?
It actually escapes faster because of holes at the side needed to operate the bubbler so you hit it quick and hard. It’s worth it because it’s so different- you can sip or chug the cup, with the bubbler it’s one hit to empty it. Plus the water keeps it very cool so you can crank up the temps…
Does it run off a battery or needs to be plugged in? I'll probably end up with one of these.
Nice photo - I've not listened to that album for ages.

Nice write up mate, I started with the AIO Coil King pen which looks quite similar to the one you’ve got. I enjoyed it at first but over time it was frustrating as you can’t clean it after each dab and the flavour while it started great quickly diminished.
The pen I got and the AceCup recommended by PP are made by the brand Crossing (Chinese manufacturer), which works in tandem with Divine Tribe (USA designer) to design amazing products and they have a direct UK supplier Recommended Vape Supplies. They offer a Lightning Pen that has a small chamber that is easy to clean between dabs and will provide a better experience, but I have skipped this tier and went to the Divine Tribe v5 atomiser which is used on a box mod (Pico25 I have in the pic) which is levels above the coil pens! This atomiser is used in their other all-in-one products like the Core 2.0/2.1 (their Puffco Peak) for people that prefer less customisation and more pick up and go.
You can then get a bottomless banger for this atomiser for use with any of your glass rigs, you can customise the fuck out of it with all sorts of bubbler attachments, different size cups and the list goes on… what a great rabbit hole to be stuck in 😮💨
Divine Tribe has an excellent d/iscord, a ton of information about the products and u can see how people are using them (check pinned comments in channels)

I've already tried cleaning mine and can confirm it was near impossible to do properly. As you say it's constantly tainted with whatever the last extract was.
What's a bottomless banger? It's this exact sort of stuff that made me dive at what looked the simplest option!
Puffco I have heard of and noted their high end thing was top of most recommendations lists. That was too much cash for me as a starter system.

The Crossing Core 2.0/2.1 is only £150 and the replaceable parts are much cheaper than the puffco parts too!
A bottomless banger is something the atomiser would go in (via the open bottom) and attaches to a glass rig - in the picture I attached the yellow outlines a box mod (battery that powers the vaporiser, the orange/red outlines the atomiser and the white outlines the bottomless banger which lets vapour go into that glass rig.
The box mod I bought was £30 from France called a Pico25, the DT v5 atomiser itself was £53 but comes with an extra heating cup which can last a year or more.

Here it is with a “Hubble Bubble” bubbler for a smoother draw. Right now I’m using a vinyl tube/whip and it’s fine but most prefer it through water. I went with this option as I can have it discreet and portable (like my first pic next to dab pen) or I can hook it up to all sorts of gear in the house and it’s as good as any e-rig.
As you said all the info made you dive into the simplest option I would recommend the Crossing Core 2.0 or 2.1 (only difference is one has a rebuildable heater for cheaper maintenance) as they really are just great out of the box and requires no fiddling, very easy to clean and there is some customisation available when you are ready! The AceCup you’ve been recommended whilst good, is an older piece of tech compared to the v5 generation of products from Crossing.

The ace cup is actually a newer device than the divine tribe stuff but I wouldn't recommend it for dabs only carts

What's the difference between the box mod and the 510 cart pen batteries I have? This thread is lengthening my Christmas wish list!
The Motar 3 is essentially very simple. A quartz bucket with an electric coil on the outside of the bottom. Meaning that all you concentrate is heated up in glass. There are terp pearls (see Google for a good explanation) and a mouthpiece. You set the box mod to deliver the right wattage (from the atomiser maker), drop a dab of wax, rosin, badder or really any concentrate in it, press the power button for up to 10 secs and a dose of THC vapour gets delivered to you. I've tried waxes works fine. Good quality rosin (for example from Eddy's Hash Bar) is excellent. Hash, in theory, is good, but in practice I find it too easy to overheat and then I get an off-flavour. To me, anyway . YMMV, of course 😉
Up to 10 seconds is crazy for dabbing. Check out mods that are compatible with ArcticFox/RedPanda for autofire and your experience will be much better!
While you can technically use any 510 battery with the v5 atomiser, you want access to specific settings to dial in your temps correctly. Based on the resistance of the heater cup (every one is slightly different) you will adjust some values to reach a specific temp, tested with a cotton bud where your product would be, colour of the cotton bud at the end determines if you need to increase or decrease settings - you only do this once per heater cup and as mentioned they can last a very long time.
The box mod I use (Pico25) is also compatible with an extremely convenient software that once loaded (plug into pc, run program, very simple instructions available) will provide you with an “auto fire” function that will keep the cup hot for a predetermined time so you can enjoy your dab without having to remember to press on for 10 seconds off for 2 and repeat 😂 it all sounds very complicated but honestly there are great tutorials and people available to help

Oh man, I can relate to your Dithering paragraph. I always assume most people say to themselves: I want x so I will buy x right now today. I’m more like: I want x, x looks good… should I though? Yes go for it… but do I really need it?…no…yes…erm. Etc. repeat a million times. About 6 months later I end up buying it!
As I only dab occasionally I have a similar pen to you that’s already being mentioned, the Lightning Pen from RVS. Brilliant. Smooth tasty vapour. Easy to use/maintain. You say a bit harsh in the Utilian? Never tried but I find the LP really smooth.
One day I may upgrade but I’m happy with this set up for now. Enjoy your pen! Cheers :)

I'm definitely a ditherer. Not that it actually means I make better decisions, it mostly means I just take longer to make them.
Hey man, great read the dab paraphernalia really is more baffling than cryptocurrency. I found those YouTube reviews to be helpful when choosing a dry herb vape, it helps to find head to head comparison reviews otherwise the reviewers just seem to ramble about manufacturers specs.
As it turns out my first dhv has now become my hash and concentrate vape. I got the xmax v3 pro as an entry level dhv to see if I could get used to it, before buying a Tinymight2.
The beauty of the xmax is the little stainless steel dosing caps I can just load them up with a little bit of cotton bacon and the hash or concentrate of my choice and cleaning is just as easy, open the cap and throw out the used cotton, occasionally requires a wipe but otherwise low maintenance which suits me.

I have the xmax too! I think it works well as a weed vape. I also like the dosing caps. I tried hash and concentrates with it but didn't think it was that great with those. Concentrates definitely hit much much harder from the wax pen.
I bought a dynavap b to use as a hash vape, got a load of hash in and was disappointed with it. I did a lot of testing different methods with what vapes I have, in cotton and with bud.
I have settled on the xmax in cotton bacon. Heated to 220°C (which I find too hot for the bud) and then left at temperature for at least 30 seconds to evenly heat before hitting it I think this keeping it at temperature part is why I struggle with the dynavap as I don't have an induction heater and if I hit it too soon I don't seem to get the full flavour.
I haven't done a lot of extracts with it yet but plan on getting a decent stash in for Christmas so I will have to do some more testing then.
You will have to put an update up in a month or 2 and let us know how the pen holds up or what you upgrade to 👍

Shame about your DynaVap/hash experience. Hash wrapped in a bit of vape cotton using a YLL 2.0 induction heater works really well for me. Hash needs more heat cycles and using a lighter in this instance can be a pain! The initial downside is finding that £100ish for a heater. Honestly worth it though in the long run.
I am happy with the dynavap for bud which is what I mostly vape, and it came with a carry case so it will be handy for out and about and will get plenty of use. I don't think I can justify the cost of a decent induction heater since I am happy with the xmax for hash but I can tell it would make a massive difference for keeping the heat in the hash
Pop it on your wishlist. Look out for deals, Black Friday soon or 4/20 next year. Yeah it’s not vital, especially for bud but never say never! :)
I'll likely upgrade the pen around Christmas time. There's lots of options just on this topic now!
I started with a yocan evolve plus xl which is a cheap way to try. Not a bad device but quickly upgraded to a core 2.1 erig. World's apart the core is a workhorse, easy to use and keep clean and delivers every time.
Hi - I have played around with various pieces; here's my 2p worth... AFAIK the term dab pen and wax pen are interchangeable. I use a vapour cup (the Crossing ACE which is the same as the Tronian Omegatron). I wouldn't be too concerned about the vapour. You fill the cup, but it's up to you whether you spit or down it in one 🙂. I also have a Utillian 5 wax pen. With bubbler. This works well and the bubbler cools things down nicely. Good solid device with spares easily available. Coils seem to be long-lasting. Also a box mod with Motar3 vaporiser. This has a pure quartz cup so the element doesn't actually touch your concentrate. More info if you need it, just ask away 👍
Thanks for filling in some of the gaps. I remember I saw some attachments for box mods - so first question is, what's a box mod?
It's another name for a battery, generally with a 510 socket into which you can screw pretty much anything with a 510 connector. The thing about it is that you can set any voltage/wattage that you like. I have a geekvape - here it is with a Motar 3 vaporiser.
Hey BigRoo, how is the dab pen holding up, is it getting much use or has it been abandoned?
Is there an upgrade on the Christmas list?
Is there an upgrade on the Christmas list?
Hello mate. Am still using it. Might upgrade after Xmas though as it's hard to clean the coil. I've been getting crumble wax from Dr Distillate which works pretty nicely. Usually just have a few blasts as a top up while watching tv.

Commercial Hash Labels - why are they mostly shite?

Commercial Hash Labels - why are they mostly shite?
This has been a curiousity of mine for a while. How and why do the hash producers / distributors go to so much trouble to make the hash - literally an entire season of work - then wrap it in plastic with a shite label?
How, during that long season did one of them not think to download one of many graphics apps or ask their mum's friend's son's mate who's handy with computers?
Is it simply irrelevant to many hash producers what the label looks like? Perhaps it's the culture here where a fancy label adds to the price and how easy it is to sell many products as they form a brand or product identity.
Take the Titanic hash from GAW here.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/R9AeKG
This is actually a pretty nice basic commercial hash. Someone has put some love into producing it. Yet they slapped a crap picture of a sail boat onto it making it look like they'd not taken it seriously at all.
How does that titanic hash not end up with one of many easily sourced photos of the titanic on it? It's one of the finest examples of a mismatch between label and quality.
GAW actually have a few nice hashes but mostly with terrible graphics. I'm not picking on GAW though, if you look at Eddy's commercial hash listing here:
https://littlebiggy.net/link/5jWrj7
You'll see similar lackluster designs albeit more on point than the titanic. The BMW does have a BMW badge, and some have at least used easily sourced images. The super turtle in particular looks like someone put some effort in to create that label. It's an example of the sort of graphical embellishment that I believe hints at extra effort by the team.
This Rasta Mafia hash from SOTL has a nice quality graphic but still there's little love gone into the label. The image itself is a stock image that's unaltered. The hash again is a decent commercial but you'd not note the quality by the hastily prepared label.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/agse21
Green Cat have just dropped a New Zealand flag hash which I've not tried. The label is at least a collage of two photos so someone put some effort in but I've no idea what it's trying to say as it's hard to imagine what the NZ link is - although if someone knows please fill me in. I'd like to think the plant pictured is what the hash was made from but I suppose its likely as relevant as the flag is.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/HHNEIi
And to hammer home the point one last time below is a pineapple beldia from Pistach.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/k7oQau
I guess the pineapple sorta makes sense but it's not a graphic that inspires any faith in quality.
There are of course better examples of hash labels such as some of the hashes at Dr Green Thumb like this tropical nerds.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/mEEBYV
I'm not sure if it's a stock image or stolen or if they created it but it's a nicer looking label and the hash looks pretty nice too. It feels like in our culture that these go hand in hand.
As soon as you look at Cali hashes they instantly look good quality due to posh labelling and proud branding. My favourite Barz LA being a great example of something that looks high quality before you even see the hash. You know there's a team behind this that love what they do and want to proudly represent themselves. The label is like a stamp of approval.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/6HlEIN
And in this case the label ain't lying. This is a fantastic hash that's probably one of the nicest I've tried. It is of course also about four times as expensive as a commercial Moroccan hash. I'm unsure if this proves my point or if I've just started arguing against myself.
So to round this topic up, why have the Moroccan and Spanish hash producers / distributors seemingly failed to learn the basic marketing trick of a posh label and brand being a keen indicator of quality? It'd surely help both their sales and pricing to do that part well and it'd seem relatively straightforward to create a decent label if you're already committed to printing a bunch of colour labels anyway.
Chefs say it best: The first bite is with the eyes.
I'm genuinely interested in hash production so please do chime in with your own knowledge on the subject.
Thanks for reading my topic. I hope as always it was useful in some way and if not that it was at least entertaining.
I'll see you in the next topic.
Please share with me your best and worst hash labels plus feel free to educate me about hash production.
How, during that long season did one of them not think to download one of many graphics apps or ask their mum's friend's son's mate who's handy with computers?
Is it simply irrelevant to many hash producers what the label looks like? Perhaps it's the culture here where a fancy label adds to the price and how easy it is to sell many products as they form a brand or product identity.
Take the Titanic hash from GAW here.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/R9AeKG
This is actually a pretty nice basic commercial hash. Someone has put some love into producing it. Yet they slapped a crap picture of a sail boat onto it making it look like they'd not taken it seriously at all.
How does that titanic hash not end up with one of many easily sourced photos of the titanic on it? It's one of the finest examples of a mismatch between label and quality.
GAW actually have a few nice hashes but mostly with terrible graphics. I'm not picking on GAW though, if you look at Eddy's commercial hash listing here:
https://littlebiggy.net/link/5jWrj7
You'll see similar lackluster designs albeit more on point than the titanic. The BMW does have a BMW badge, and some have at least used easily sourced images. The super turtle in particular looks like someone put some effort in to create that label. It's an example of the sort of graphical embellishment that I believe hints at extra effort by the team.
This Rasta Mafia hash from SOTL has a nice quality graphic but still there's little love gone into the label. The image itself is a stock image that's unaltered. The hash again is a decent commercial but you'd not note the quality by the hastily prepared label.

Green Cat have just dropped a New Zealand flag hash which I've not tried. The label is at least a collage of two photos so someone put some effort in but I've no idea what it's trying to say as it's hard to imagine what the NZ link is - although if someone knows please fill me in. I'd like to think the plant pictured is what the hash was made from but I suppose its likely as relevant as the flag is.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/HHNEIi
And to hammer home the point one last time below is a pineapple beldia from Pistach.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/k7oQau
I guess the pineapple sorta makes sense but it's not a graphic that inspires any faith in quality.
There are of course better examples of hash labels such as some of the hashes at Dr Green Thumb like this tropical nerds.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/mEEBYV
I'm not sure if it's a stock image or stolen or if they created it but it's a nicer looking label and the hash looks pretty nice too. It feels like in our culture that these go hand in hand.
As soon as you look at Cali hashes they instantly look good quality due to posh labelling and proud branding. My favourite Barz LA being a great example of something that looks high quality before you even see the hash. You know there's a team behind this that love what they do and want to proudly represent themselves. The label is like a stamp of approval.
https://littlebiggy.net/link/6HlEIN
And in this case the label ain't lying. This is a fantastic hash that's probably one of the nicest I've tried. It is of course also about four times as expensive as a commercial Moroccan hash. I'm unsure if this proves my point or if I've just started arguing against myself.
So to round this topic up, why have the Moroccan and Spanish hash producers / distributors seemingly failed to learn the basic marketing trick of a posh label and brand being a keen indicator of quality? It'd surely help both their sales and pricing to do that part well and it'd seem relatively straightforward to create a decent label if you're already committed to printing a bunch of colour labels anyway.
Chefs say it best: The first bite is with the eyes.
I'm genuinely interested in hash production so please do chime in with your own knowledge on the subject.
Thanks for reading my topic. I hope as always it was useful in some way and if not that it was at least entertaining.
I'll see you in the next topic.

Isn't it because the bars aren't the retail unit?- very few people buy bars, they are immediately cut into portions so the vast majority would never see a label anyway, particularly on the street. Dealers need to tell one bar from another but customers don't in the same way. Just a thought....
That's mostly it.
Commercial hash isn't worth the effort to brand/market. Its about quickly moving quantity. Nobody considers the brand/strain.
Higher end products have better branding but even then the end buyers rarely getting full slabs.
A lot of high end brands or vendors are creating bespoke jars for sale of 1-2g.

From the original producers perspective the bar is the unit it's sold in. I'm guessing fancier labels don't sell more bars though. Maybe the buyers just sample / test the hash so the label is irrelevant.
Not sure how old this post is, but comms bars will have stickers on without any farm name, cos no one wants to put their name on that shite. They aren't made with single strains either it just moves quicker if it's called some fruity strain.
You can get clean comms, but it's rarer and rarer these days.
You can get clean comms, but it's rarer and rarer these days.
I think most of the stickers are just to help the retailer ship to supplier. Bars are pre-ordered to go to certain places and the stickers make it easier. A supplier could be shipping the exact same hash to various buyers using different stickers. Mr A gets all the bars with Messi stickers, Mr B gets all the bars with Donald Duck stickers, it’s a visual aid.
I never buy the commercial hash but you have got me wondering mate.
It could be just a marker for the couriers to seperate a shipment. If you were shipping a load then obvious pictures might prevent anyone getting the wrong product at the other end.
I can't help thinking that putting fancy packaging on some of these products would be like putting lipstick on a pig, but as I don't buy them I can't judge them.
Maybe a future topic for you there mate. What is the best cheap hash?

I don't buy much commercial hash but I quite like the odd bit for a change up from time to time. Some of it will get you pretty stoned but generally in a less heady way so I like it as a daytime / alternative smoke sometimes. It's also quite nostalgic for me as I started with hash so I enjoy it on that level too.
As to which is the best cheap hash - that's a good question and I suspect one that many are asking. I'm still searching for the answer. My preference is for the darker / oily / sticky hashes though.

All I’ll chime in with is it’s actually the flag of Australia with the 6 white stars and the southern cross. The 7 points of the star under the jack signify the 7 territories of Australia The Kiwi’s flag has 4 red stars of the southern cross. The red signifies the importance of Māori culture. So it could be the hydro bud from Nimbim 😂
Also fully agree with your observations and analogy. I would always use it on my apprentices. My second bite is with my nose. Personalty I think the graphic design, marketing and social media presence of western new world hash production is vastly different from say the Moroccan scene hence the difference. I’m certainly no expert but you see clips of Moroccan farmers beating dried plants over sieves wrapped in plastic and then on the other hand your seeing clips of American/Canadians producing with care using much more controlled environments and different techniques and technology

I probably should have known that! I just took the title as is. I suppose the people who buy from farmers maybe just test the hash. I get they live in a more rural place than me so will likely see a different world.
When you order those label's, are they shipped with the sticker on them or is it just in the photos?
I think the quality of graphics is random some don't care, some don't have the latest tech/skills, some just use whatever works and sticks to it

I think they're stickers. Hopefully one of the vendors will answer that.
The "we have always done it this way" ethos certainly might apply. Maybe it makes no difference to sales at all.
If you look at your own shop profile as an example, you clearly understand the need to make a splash as your image is great. It's the first sign that as a vendor you've likely put time and effort in and take pride in what you do. Perhaps the farmers don't see the world with those eyes.

Cannabis edibles advent calendar for a stoner Xmas!

Cannabis edibles advent calendar for a stoner Xmas!
When I was a kid:
When I was a kid we used to have just 3 channels on TV, no mobile phones or internet, and at Christmas we had basic cardboard advent calendars with little doors that when opened would reveal a crap picture of a star or a donkey underneath.
And that was it. Every day a new crap and badly printed mystery Christmas picture was revealed until Christmas day when Santa would arrive and let you down just as badly. Where's my f**king Raleigh Burner huh Santa? That was Christmas.
Christmas 2024:
These days you can get calenders stuffed with chocolate, or Lego, or beer, or chocolate Lego beer (probably), and now it seems you can get one with cannabis edibles on LB.
What a time to be alive. Advent perfection.
I don't know if this is the only stoner advent calendar as it'd work for hash or weed or extracts too - maybe if it was a fridge calendar. And while I'm personally unlikely to buy one I'm down with the concept and I'm glad it's available. I hope they sell out and it makes Christmas more magical for all who buy them.
It's definitely a significant notch up from seeing a tiny blurred picture of three kings revealed in a torn cardboard window.
The magic of Christmas:
As always thanks for reading my topic, I hope we've all learned something about the magic of Christmas and now have a warm feeling as though sat in a thick knit jumper in front of an open fire while holding a steaming mug of mulled wine with both hands and a smiley choir wearing wooly hats sing carols outside the window in the snow covered street. If not hopefully it was entertaining in some way anyway.
Would you buy a cannabis advent calendar? Are any others available?

Great festive write up mate almost inspired me to get the Christmas decorations out of the loft, almost.
I can still remember how the first chocolate calendars tasted, I would rather eat RSO.
I love this kind of thing💚 if I was into edibles I would grab one.
I haven't ordered a lot over the last couple of months so I am going to get 24 different bits, mixture of hash, extract and bud and just open something new every day, already looking forward to the 1st 😂

Thanks man. I do like making edibles but usually when I plan to be overdoing it. While I like the calendar concept, it's not for me now. I like your plan though mate. I should start stocking up a bit myself.
I remember the early generic chocolate too. Like it'd been made from brown powder and water.

Could be a fun project mate RSO, distillate, bar of decent chocolate and a pound shop advent calendar.
Just open the top of the calendar bin the cheap chocolate. Melt and space up the good chocolate pour it into the calendar mould let it cool and put it back in the calendar packaging.
👍

I'd probably eat in all in one day. It's a sound concept though. I like it. I might adapt it for Easter and make myself a special egg.
love the 80s advent calender when things were so much simpler and no i didnt get the raleigh burner either but did buy one as a grown adult which has pride of place on garage wall 🤣 u write well 👏🏻
Thanks man. There's definitely things I look back on fondly. But it's easy to crave the past when sat in a warm house and forgetting about how ice used to form on the insides of the windows in winter. Nostalgia is always rose tinted. I am glad I grew up before everyone walked round with cameras in their pockets though. I'd not want video footage of me gurning at raves and stuff to follow me round forever like the kids these days will have.
the window towel for condensation 🤣 in saying that we roamed from 8am till sundown bikes skateboards footy mischief me and brothers shared a ' main " present so xmas day was fights 🤣 still id not change it at all but the missus cant believe some of the stuff from our youth. Was back in day when coppers would give you a clip cos they fancied it or throw you in wagon for a quick beating excused by " we had reports someone of your description " - a kid 🤣
It was character forming. But the local kids now have a super smooth concrete skatepark with floodlights at night. I must admit I like the 21st century facilities. I'd have been there all the time. And to be fair it smells like the crazy kids get a few good bits too!
I’ve just ordered RocketDogRonnie’s version- stuffed full of homemade delights- couldn’t resist!🎅💥🥳
This was the only one I'd seen. I like the concept so I'm glad other people are doing it. I'd probably get to whatever the first Friday was and eat the whole calendar.
Appreciate the topic mate! Glad you like the idea.
Someone had mentioned a bud advent calendar a month or so ago but I haven’t seen it come to light.

I'm glad you put it together. Younger me would have this in his kitchen. I might have been interested in a bud or posh hash version but in all likeliness, I'd just spend whatever it cost on a bit of nice Xmas weed. However the younger stoner in me definitely approves of the novelty concept. I genuinely hope you sell out and people love them.

Can you remember your first LB order?

Can you remember your first LB order?
Green Cat were the first vendor I ordered from. I ordered zereals. And, although I'm a complete LB slut liable to jump onto any vendors tasty flavours at a moments notice, I do keep coming back to GC. So while I can't exactly claim complete loyalty, they were a solid first choice and I'm glad I chose them.
My first order:
I randomly had some bitcoin at a time when I had an injury and couldn't get about easily. My local fella refused to pop over to me (something which ultimately has turned out to be a costly decision) so I started looking online.
All I found were the typical scam sites and I'd nearly lost all hope when I found a Reddit post telling me to ignore all the websites being discussed and head to little biggy. It said that I would thank them later. And I definitely would if I knew who it was. Thanks Reddit person, you were completely correct.
So I ended up on little biggy looking through all the listings, trying to find something I wanted from someone who looked trustworthy and who'd take orders from a newbie. I found Green Cat and ordered zereals. Or I found zereals and ordered from Greet Cat. I can't remember which way round it was. I can remember thinking quite carefully about who looked to be trustworthy though as my expectations were actually low about the likely outcome. I guess I figured that a cartoon cat felt more trustworthy than the other options.
At this point I was still wondering if it'd actually turn up. Not least as I'd just put both my money and my faith into a cartoon cat on the internet. I wondered if it'd be any good. Would it be ditch weed; would it be cbd?
The weed of course was top quality, delivered in good time and it weighed over the amount. I remember that really blew my mind as your average local round here aims for 6.9 on a quarter and that last point is mostly dust. The GC order arrived overweight and no dusty sprinkles. It was a decent bit of weed and cost less than a local would charge. All delivered to my door by Postman Pot.
So that was me instantly converted to an LB user. Since then I've been once or twice to score locally and only because of bitcoin or postal issues.
The qualities I look for in a vendor:
- Top products
- Reasonable prices
- Fast delivery
- Good communication
- Reliability
I find myself constantly in need of decent weed, at a good price, delivered quickly from a reliable vendor.
The last bit - reliability - that's really core. Knowing that your order will be processed and will arrive at a predictable time is essential to ordering weed online for me. I've had delayed orders from some vendors for a range of reasons varying from reasonable to what the actual fk. So a vendor who churns through orders in a timely and reliable way is always most likely to get my repeat business.
GC don't have the huge number of listings of some of the big boy (and girl) vendors, and don't have extracts but I've never had a bad bit of weed from GC and their listing text is accurate. Basically you get exactly what you expected to. There's a lot to be said for that when I consider some of the bits I've had elsewhere that were definitely not up to the promise of the listing.
At the moment I'm consuming lots of the GC super cheap cookie dawg which is lovely. I'm not actually a fan of cookies nor most dawg named strains but I'm chugging through the cookie dawg and enjoying it. It's 50 bucks a quarter so a bargain smoke. I've ordered it three times.
A while back I had the Blue Nerds from GC which was one of the best bits I've had from LB and one of the nicest smokes I've had anywhere. It wasn't that expensive but I can't remember the price. Think it was 75/80 bucks a quarter. It had a sort of silver blueberry flavour - absolutely spectacularly delicious. Lovely stuff.
While you've missed that the Jealousy is a lovely bit available right now and they have a cheaper UK Skywalker OG which is a favourite of mine. I've just ordered some Purple Mochi and while I can't vouch for it yet I'm betting it'll be lovely. Check out their LB shop from the link.
I focused on Green Cat here as they were my first vendor and that's what the topic is about. There's loads of vendors I've used on here that give an excellent service as well and would be worthy of their own topic. I might do a future write up on my top LB vendors.
But, coming back to my original question which got lost in my Green Cat fandom - do you remember your first order on Little Biggy? How did it go? And do you still order from the same vendor?

After many years of not smoking anything circumstances arose where I needed some decent weed. I asked my long-term smoking buddy, and he pointed me here. It was like a magical wonderland!! Look at all of the fantastic things available! I was dazzled. Searching through I settled on 7g of Cherry Sherbet from Riley Packs. Left me in a drooling mess. Eventually I had to get my own account as my mate was pissed off with constantly being asked to buy stuff. I'd like to think the thrill had worn off by now, but, alas, it doesn't.
Druids Magic, had a 1/4 Slurricane popcorn fluff…
Done a bit of research on reddit prior; This is what I was after, small batches of ‘grown’ cannabis not produced but grown with dignity.
Popped them a message and received a prompt reply.
I could tell I was talking to someone who actually took pride in what they were selling.
Ordered, processed and sent same day. Received the following day. Amazed to say the least, hats off to Royal Mail.
Opened the parcel bag, teared the cardboard apart like a heathen. This method of opening is pretty much ritual now.
The sweet smell that slipped out of the mylar bag made me grin from ear to ear. Tipped it out… purple strewn medium to small buds with a resinous lacquer covering portions a lazy trim to say the least but my eyes lit up.
As I raised the bud closer for inspection, delighted to see cloudy thc glands with heads in tac.
This far superseding any £30 8th I could buy off the street.
I couldn’t believe it this was “popcorn fluff”.
It smoked ni on perfect, and to top
it all off it was massively over weighed.
I was on board, thank you DM :)

Dr Green Thumb for me. I ordered 10 grams of Sunset Sherbet hash which got lost in transit 😅. They sent me out another in no time 💚
The Sunset Sherbet was my first hash buy on LB. Went back for that a few times, really nice hash.
I've not ordered from Dr Green Thumb but often look through their hash listings. Am glad you got your first order sorted - that's the exact thing you don't want to happen first time! What's the sunset like as a hash? I think I might take the plunge and get a Q from there on payday. I'd likely get the apple one I think.
They are my go to for hash. I’ve gone through most of their menu since that order. The sunset sherbet I had was quite some time ago, but I do remember it being clean and tasty for a single filtered commercial hash. Very strong too. However, since then, I now seem to go for their triple filtered ones as they tend to be very strong and taste of the used genetics. I’d recommend their Runtz triple filtered they have at the moment 👍
I’m more of a weed smoker tbh. I have tried a few on LB since I’ve joined, but I’ve not found any as good as I can get currently. It’s the hash I keep coming back for!
My first order after browsing on here for months was with Urban Leaf Co.
I was getting really fucked off waiting for dealers to either show up hours late or not at all and being made to feel like I was an inconvenience / in the wrong.
Started browsing the internet. Dropped £50 on a punt on what turned out to be a scam website after googling. Similarly then found a post on Reddit about this place despite being sceptical.
My first order was 3.5g of Gelato and ULC posted it and arrived the next day, WITH a grinder, papers and some cbd lollies.
I miss the days of vendors giving out free stuff. But I’m not an entitled prick and obviously as long as I get what I pay for, I don’t care. It’s just always a nice bonus when vendors do that. Have had a few do that in the last 5 years.

Glad you got a good first experience too. I was also hacked off with the general chaos that surrounds a local seller. And how hit and miss it was on strains and quality. Am super happy to find LB.
As you say first purchase and impression really important to how your future on here will go...I indeed remember it was gorilla zkittles 2g off the original JJ. Went on, researched, watched, read, and touch wood fingers haven't been burned since
Definitely. I see some newbies caught up in chaos in the topics sometimes and feel for them. I'm glad my first one went smoothly.
My first buy was an ounce of Zheetos from the original Pistach. In my hands less than 24 hours after the order was placed.
I've had some good cheapies from Pistach, and as you say very fast. Glad yours worked out man. That first impression of lb is important I guess to whether we stayed.
My first TWO orders on here exit scammed!- its hard enough choosing as a noob and they both had excellent reviews and had been around a while. The second one called Premium Extracts had a very good reputation but were gone as soon as they got my order lol!
I had no idea if escrow was a real thing so was amazed when I got all my moneyback straight away- without even disputes because they had buggered off!
So with my coin back in my wallet I thought "3rd Time Lucky!" and ordered Portland Oregon Mimosa from Smoggyman. It rocked my world. Turned up the very next day in a tupperware container to protect the integrity of these truly huge beautiful nugs. I was in green heaven and I've never looked back!

That's a rough start Polly. I don't know if I'd have continued. Possibly as I started with free money. My first two orders were sort of free as I had random bitcoins I didn't know what to do with and the tiny amounts I had grew pretty substantially over the years that I didn't know what to do with them. Didn't last long once I found LB though.
I didn't believe the escrow system either and thought it was probably smoke and mirrors - a part of the grift. Also as the order gets paid it disappears as a number until it's sent so I first thought that was that. Money done. Order gone. I am stupid. I was lucky to trust a cartoon cat that turned out to be super reliable.
I look at the site with different eyes of course now I understand the clunkiness of the design and the way it works.
I'm glad you stuck with it Polly - LB wouldn't be the same without you of course. Considering my affection for orange strains I'm not the hugest Mimosa fan. It's like the lager tops of orange strains for me. Although it's fair to say many people actually hate the exact dank sour orange flavour I crave the most.

Thanks man for being super reliable. LB is a funny looking place for a newbie. As you know how it works behind the scenes perhaps you have a different perception. Looking through the comments it seems like lots of people hung around a while before ordering to satisfy themselves it was real. I count myself lucky I chose GC first and had a positive first experience. Honestly I've had loads of nice bits from your store since then. I'll be back for more GC - just been paid.
After a 30 odd year hiatus I decided I wanted to get back into smoking weed again but didn't know any plugs any more so I looked online and came across budmother who sells D8 hash. I really enjoyed the high from the D8 but the hash was poor quality and probably contained contaminants. So I kept looking and came across a website called star doggy who i bought some girl scout cookies off. Lovely bit of weed with a very euphoric come up which suddenly switched into the most relaxing body high I've ever had, like floating weightless in space. Then soon after I came across a few people mentioning little biggy, I think on Reddit, and had a look at it and never looked back. Figuring out all the bitcoin stuff was a headache but I persevered and after sussing it out put my first order in for a 1g sample of Hindu kush from the green team. I don't buy from them anymore but I'm grateful to them for their no minimum buy requirements which allowed me to build up my buys, and cheap 1g samples which allowed me to try out lots of different strains.
I guess bitcoin is a bit of a barrier for some people. If I'd had to buy my own first time I don't know if I'd have moved forward or not. I was lucky I had some from taking the revolut quiz when I got that account. Those coins had grown enough to cover my first couple of orders. So I got in to lb gambling the coins I couldn't seem to spend anywhere else anyway.
I've not had the Hindu kush but I've used TGT cheap g's before too. I had master kush which I believe is a Hindu kush cross from GC quite recently. That was a lovely bit.
I understand why many vendors don't deal with newbies. But without some vendors accomodating newbies the site could never grow so I'm grateful many do.

I had a lovely bit of bubba kush off TGT. Lush tingly sensations throughout the body. Funnily enough it was one of their lows and very cheap but even though it had crap bag appeal, it had one of the nicest body buzzes I've ever had. Another funny thing about this was some bigga was kicking off about how crap it was and that they'd bought a large quantity and was going to bin it and I thought no, give it to me instead I love it 😄
I've had all sorts of nice cheapies from LB with only a few crap ones. I think some people expect top shelf for twenty bucks a go.
I vaguely remember my first being Drugs Inc, few years ago. Only been here 2 years, feels like a lifetime.
I definitely don't miss the days of waiting for matey to get home from the pub so I could rush round there at whatever random time it was before he passed out or sold out. I don't know drugs Inc but glad your first order went well and you converted to LB.
Drugs Inc is now Your Natural Medicine, or I believe that's the rumour. Yeah, I absolutely hated getting from street, the guy almost never knew what he was given, and it's awkward as fuck getting on the bus with a half oz of smelly weed wrapped in a takeaway menu. One of my best mates nowadays though, not bought from him in years, had him round mine for a smoke of the good stuff last week :)
Hehehe. That made me laugh. I came back on a train once with a load of cheese and stunk the whole carriage out. Definitely don't miss that. Ah ynm - I know them.
7g of trim from the Green Team. I didn't understand crypto and paid about £20 in BTC fees!
Was that the fairly recent halving event on bitcoin? That's the one time I had to go see a local to get some Stardawg dust as fees were matching order costs. If you're a newbie to crypto it would have been about the worst point to dive in as you'd have nothing to compare it to.
Henry of Ak-47 hash, think it was from Hashtag UK# 🤔.
Don't believe they are on here anymore.
Got so fed up with either shit weed or no weed at all in my local area.
Despite being friends with several growers locally 🙄.
So pure desperation forced me to Google and look at different sites offering weed, all of which I felt were fake scammer sites.
Even bought some CBD garbage off of a legit site, it's like the difference between real Coke Cola and some very cheap Cola.
It tastes about right, but you can tell it's not the proper thing and mostly just gave me a headache.
So many more months of shit/ no weed googling away trying to find any site slightly genuine looking.......
Wait what's this??? littlebiggy??
Could just tell from how the site looked and the topics/reviews/items etc, that it must be real.
Ummm'd and ahhhh'd for a while, researching/checking Borg info for how to buy on the site. Did research into Bitcoin and all that.
Then finally thought fuck it, take the risk or smoke shit/no weed.
Had a few questionable deals from a number of vendors over the years, but like I've always said to others when I talk about the site "I've always received weed" some better than others.
One of the best risks I've ever taken in my life! I will continue to use this site till I die or the site does!
Long live LB!!!! 💪💪💪💪

I've been tempted to try the CBD stuff to see what it's like. Your description is much what I expected. Like alcohol free beer. It almost tastes like beer but you wonder why you're drinking it.
Amongst the many bits I've bought I've had some questionable bits and some questionable service but for the most part I've had decent bits from vendors who are pretty efficient. I've got two orders outstanding so now I've called it one of them is bound to f**k up! Long live LB!

My first buy was 1ml distillate from bud brothers if I recall their name correctly. I don't think they are around anymore, I hope they doing well. At that time distillate was very hard to find so I was really happy to have found this place and for the first time I could make my own thc vapes.
This is all before my time here for sure. Distillate / RSO is still one of the things that excites me the most here as I know I can't get that from a fella down the road like I could some weed.I use it for edibles though.
They were different times for sure with only a fraction of sellers compared to now and when distillate was in stock it was like christmas arrived.
So age old smoker but started a family and it dropped off, started fishing again with my pals and night fishing was filled with old pals chatting and smoking, none of us like weed anymore all found the high to much for family life so searching out quality hash, I’ve always loved good hash. Found the site through high and politie newsletter and sat and watched for a few months, one night decided to order a mix of hash off eddys, surprised it turned up and was great, have purchased a few more since and also won some thanks to a giveaway, still don’t smoke loads but I’ve got a lovely little stash for when I do👍🏻
Eddy's has some crazy good bits of hash in. Good first choice too as he's super reliable and you get exactly what you expected to. I still pick up commercial hash once a month-ish as I quite like a basic hash joint. Especially if I start early.
Yes I have to stop myself from buying when I was younger I loved the hunt for quality hash, now it’s all here!
I found this place after a relative posted some bud for my MS suffering wife and it got me doing a bit of skimming the web for a source. Found this place and thought I'd take a punt on £50 and threw an order in for a Q of Biker OG Kush from The Green Team. I remember holding in laughter as the postie turned up with a package. I've never looked back and I reckon I've driven site traffic up a bit. I know at least two others who signed up after I pointed this place out. Long may it continue.
I hope you signed them up via your referral link to get a kickback from your sharing! I had the biker OG from TGT - was pretty alright from what I remember. I still feel like that when Postman Pot drops off my latest parcel. Glad you had a positive first experience and shared the love with your mates.
Unfortunately word of mouth, way too excited to tell someone about here to remember, sadly.
That said, we have a little smoke club going on a few years now and the likes of little biggy have certainly made a decent contribution.

Bet it blew your head off. I gave up a few years back. It didn't work out so well but that first smoke when I started again - bloody hell -was liking taking a hard drug. I was fully off my tits. My brain off in cerebral lala land.
Yes It did 🤣
I remember taking 2 - 3 small hits thinking this is enough .
But now , I’ll empty a 1 ml in 3 days if its Strawberry Diesel or GSC .

I wish it did that every time. Tolerance is a curse. I should probably schedule in breaks as I'd enjoy it more. Annoyingly I suffer some pain though.
Sorry to hear brother .
I’ve come to the conclusion that I enjoy weed . Been off and on for years , contemplating if its good or not ….
I dunno its by far the best fun i have when it comes to consuming something .

i started uni and went to a dealer here twice before i decided in person wasn't for me. had to head to his place, wouldn't message me till 2am, soggy weed, etc. looked online and found lb through a reddit post and looked for the most weed for the least amount of money, which was some lovely shake from drugs inc uk (are they still about? been a while since i've seen them) and it got there a couple days later. never went back. been to a few other vendors since, i was enjoying pistach shake for a while, but now i'm onto lvcannabis and their lovely popcorn shake
It's interesting how many people found LB via Reddit. I don't know drugs Inc but I've read that LV & Pistach are the same vendor.
i try to keep my nose out of discussions like that on here because it makes me more paranoid when my post doesn't arrive lol. they're both good service for the price either way!
That's probably very wise. I also don't tend to involve myself on LB politics. I've had cheapies from both that have been great value but you roll the dice a bit there.
Covid hit and I had moved to a more rural location. So no way of meeting my usual plugs. Did a bit of googling and stumbled on this site. Was humming and hawing about putting an order in but eventually did with Radar Breeder. Cant remember the strain now but I was blown away. The rest is history. I would be lost without this site.
My local was actually super reliable during covid as he'd actually be at home instead of the pub. He'd pop bits outside so no human contact. Was all very quick and simple. LB offers a much better service & better prices though.
🤔I am not actually sure, I think it was some blue zushi from pistach. I had ordered from here and a Canadian site at the same time and I think I had 3 or 4 LB orders in before the Canadian stuff landed.
I wanted to try some moonrocks and needed a minimum number of orders, I was ordering off anyone in the early days, for me and for friends just to get the numbers up, got the moonrocks and they were the RSO/FECO ones🤮. Eventually got some decent ones when they were on but the novelty had passed and I had fallen for the hash on here.
Now I mainly stick to a few favoured vendors, I only have a few that I wouldn't buy from and all the others are on a kind of would use list.

I'd also always wanted to try moonrocks and I also got rso type. Were okay as a smoke but I didn't rush back and I've still not bought any others. Maybe at Christmas or something.
I have only ever seen them 3 times on here and bought them!!! 2 were really nice but 3rd was 🤮the vendor sent me an 8th of Biscotti as a replacement and that was 🔥🔥🔥 Haven't seen any moonrocks since but always looking and hoping 🤞
I was going to post a link but I couldn't find them. I saw kaws moonrocks recently on here. I think I'll try to get some in stock for Christmas just for a change up - if any become available.
Unfortunately it was the kaws i had and were 🤮 Big up to the vendor for replacing it tho😁😁 they're no longer in stock
Oh. Well I suppose on a positive note you've saved me some money in future! I'd thought they would be the go-to rocks on here. Seen them twice in branded little tubs. I guess you're probably better off buying some premium bud, bit of shatter, and a nice hash then just mixing them together in a joint or pipe as it'd smoke pretty much the same.
With the reasonable prices on here for the components i guess ur right 👍 i hadn't thought of that 😁😁
I guess you could make your own fairly easily then let them fester for a while in a tub to go fully authentic. I don't know what the ratios are but there'll be a website out there with instructions I would imagine. I know there's kief for sale but I think it'd be nice with shatter and static hash. Or if you wanted to be super posh you could get the diamonds from the Canadian place, crush them into powder, and use that on outside. If you do get playful please let me know how it goes.
Likewise and will do, tho i will more likely get side tracked by something "shiny" as usually happens on this site and keep my fingers crossed that some will appear from a reputable source on here 😂
I know exactly what you mean. I went through a cold cure hash phase recently while eddy's was selling it discounted. Really lovely stuff. Think it's full price again now for the new batch. I've got a dab pen now (did a topic on that) so I've been blasting that. That's the nice thing on LB, so much choice. You're not at the hands of whatever your local picked up cheap that week.
Agreed, a veritable Willy Wonka's wonderland of products from far and wide. Seen your topics on here and love the profile pic 👍👍👍Happy Dabbing 😁😁
My first order was 3.5 grams of Liberty Haze from Hemp Lady. I was slightly apprehensive after placing my order as it was my first time so didn't know what to expect but everything was smooth sailing and it landed two days later.
I mostly order LV's trim and pop corn now as for the price and weight it's unbelievable value and keeps me going through the week without breaking the bank.
I'm just so thankful to have found a site like LB if I'm honest don't know what I would do without it and not to mention the vendors who make all this possible :-)
Thanks

I can remember HL starting on here! Glad it went smoothly - what was the haze like? There's a lot to be said for the budget vendors and bargain bits on here. I often get cheapie bits in to get me through.
It was a while ago now but the high was nice and mellow and definitely did the job and for the price you can't really complain.
The thing that was a real eye opener for me after discovering this site was just how many people buy trim/shake. I didn't even know there was market for such a thing before finding this site as most street guys i know only deal in buds with the standard price being £30 for 3.5 for example haze or dawg.
I know higher quality bud costs more but when i started seeing 3.5 bags being sold for £40+ i just couldn't justify spending that kind of money and thanks to LB i don't have to!

My Perfect Cookies: D9 & RSO Baking with BigRoo

My Perfect Cookies: D9 & RSO Baking with BigRoo
If you're shit at baking like me, trust in Betty Crocker. She's a dab hand at baking and makes a near perfect blend of whatever ingredients go into a tasty biscuit. So all you need to concentrate on is your concentrates - the one key ingredient that Betty leaves out of her mix.
Maybe someone should package ready-made thc cookie mix as the Betty Canna brand. Until that day here's my method.
I've been baking cookies out of various stuff from weed to vaped weed to hash to distillates for a while and have recently decided upon my perfect blend.
You will need:
- Butter or margarine
- Grease proof paper
- Pack of Betty Crocker cookie mix
- RSO
- D9 Distillate
- An oven
- An evening with nothing important on
- Music and/or sci-fi
Making the cookies is simple. If it wasn't I'd f**k it up and this would be one of my disaster reports.
First you need to decide how many cookies you are making. Then put enough mix for that many into the bowl. This is easy so far right? I usually only make one or two cookies at once then I save the rest for another night. I'm making two small cookies for sake of these instructions. Never underestimate what I do for the lb community folks.
You'll need the oven turned on to start heating up. This probably isn't news to you but an Ideal starting point nonetheless. I've no idea what temp it'll be for you. Go with what the pack says.
Next you'll need to get the small bit of butter and melt it. By small I mean a teaspoon. I use a microwave for two seconds. Probably dangerous. Ask a grown up about this.
Both the RSO and the D9 are easier to work with warm. I pop them in a baggy in hot water for a few mins.
Then you want a blend of D9 and RSO squeezed into the butter. I am doing 200mg RSO & 400mg D9 for two little cookies. But please find what works for you. I recommend starting small. Too much RSO isn't completely wonderful to experience. But you do you.
Mix the D9 and RSO and hot melted butter up so it's blended together. Sometimes D9 can be stubborn so take care not to discard it if it's solidified into a small lump. The RSO makes the butter go green and you start to question your life choices.
Let the mixture cool a bit so it's not boiling when you add it to the cookie mix. If you do it melts the chocolate chips.
Mix the butter and cookie mix up with a fork. Get it to a breadcrumbs look. Then add a tiny bit of water. Like a teaspoon. It should form into a ball in the palm of your hand as you roll it about. If not add a bit more water. You're aiming for a dough not a liquid though. It should be easy to handle and mildly sticky.
Pop your balls of dough onto the baking tray on the greased proof paper I'd forgotten to say to get ready earlier, and flatten them a bit so they're biscuit shaped. I usually mark with a fork on top but I don't know why.
Put that into the oven at the correct temperature or about 190 if you're using my oven. (Also say hi. I'm in the front room.)
It takes 9 mins in my oven which tends to aggressively cook stuff.
Let it cool for a few mins. Eat the first one while it's warm and melty but let it solidify into a biscuit format. Find the Goldilocks point of perfect cookie consumption. RSO does taint the cookie flavour but later on you'll be glad you ate it.
First you bake the cookies and then the cookies bake you. You need to chill and give the cookie(s) an hour or so to work their magic.
If you've made lots of cookies I'd recommend waiting over an hour to see how you're going rather than munch them all. Space out the cookies so the cookies don't space you out.
And that's my perfect cookies. That's all you do. Then all you need do is find a comfy position and absorb whatever evening's entertainment you've got lined up. Doesn't matter if it's a sci-fi film, spacey album or a night out at the bingo. Whatever floats your boat is likely to be even more floatier after eating the cookies.
I used D9 and RSO from Dr Distillate who's generally got a good deal on them. Have linked below.
Even if your tolerance is high I'd recommend starting with a disappointingly low dose to check out how it is. Or make multiple cookies so you can test and then dive in after an hour or so. Caution really will be your friend when it comes to edibles.
Happy to hear recommendations on baking, thc products to use, or any questions or advice. It's always nice when people chime in and knowledge gets shared so please do comment if you have something to ask or add.
I hope my cookie recipe was useful to you and if not that it was entertaining at least. If you know about cooking, as I say, please add your own ideas.

A very enjoyable & indeed thorough guide there mate!
About only tip I’d maybe add is instead of putting your rso/distillate syringes in baggies filled with hot water to make the stuff more runny, you can simply blast the syringe with a hair dryer for a few seconds 👍
Actually I do have a second tip!! I never get munchies anymore from just smoking or dabbing but fuck me, sometimes edibles give me crazy munchies 😂 I’d recommend anyone making their own strong edibles also has some nice snack food close by heh.

Thanks man. Both fair tips. How likely I am to get munchies usually depends on what I've been doing. If I've exercised and had a good dinner I'm alright. But if I'm a bit out of balance food wise or I've been lazy all day, I go off on a wild one and eat everything once I'm properly stoned.
Hey man entertaining as always even when it goes right😂
In my experience with cookies it is time and temperature = texture. Lower the oven temperature and bake for longer if you want a crunchier cookie.
Another thing that might be worth thinking about is making all the butter and storing in fridge or freezer depending how soon you will use it. This means you only have to mess about mixing it once and you can calculate the required dose easier, probably better mixing in a bowl over a pan of simmering water.

Thanks man. I've not made the butter to store before as I don't tend to think that far forwards and only make up what I intend to consume. Would make sense though as I tend to have a little bash at the cookies every weekend.
I probably should melt the butter properly. Always seems like it's on the brink of exploding in the microwave. It is fast though.

RSO is the way to go

RSO is the way to go
I was kindly given some FECO a few weeks back which I'd been enjoying immensely so this week I bought some RSO to continue on the full spectrum journey. It was recommended to me on a previous topic and I'm glad it was.
Small Test:
My first test I baked a cookie with a really small amount of RSO in. Even if you're pretty tolerant like me I'd advise starting small with any new thing. I'd heard RSO can be a wee bit unpleasant to take too much of.
Anyway, even with a cautious amount, it wasn't exactly the best flavour addition. I've been on a healthy diet and a lot of my sweet hopes and dreams were bet on that cookie. It made it taste how I imagine a cookie would taste if it had been grown in a lab. It had a sort of clinical taste. My usual delta 9 distillate doesn't notably change the cookie taste.
Full Test:
After a couple of hours I figured I was on pretty safe ground. Like I wasn't crouched trembling in the corner of a dark room or pacing around gasping. So I squished a bigger bit out the syringe onto a piece of chocolate and ate that.
That tasted pretty bad. However the effects were really quite lovely. I had a wide eyed spacey buzz going on. Really cerebral. Even grabbing a snack from the kitchen I found myself bowling around like I was Shaggy solving a mystery in Scooby Do. Perhaps it's not to everyone's liking but I definitely enjoyed it. I slept pretty well that night too.
Conclusion:
RSO is my new friend. But I could do with a better delivery method.
Please let me know your preferred consumption methods for RSO and also if any other strains are better or different - or anything else you think may be of interest.
Thanks for reading my topic.

I should really take the time to bake it into something like yourself but I usually just slap it between a couple biscuits or sweets.
Thinking of that there is not many sensations worse than getting RSO stuck to your teeth lol, tastes like bitter grass.
A grain of rice sized blob is my go to dosage, anything more and I am out of action for the night.
Dr. Distillate's wares are quality mate, I find their D9 gummies to be very consistently dosed although I do prefer the full-spectrum edible high more.

I buy cookie mix out the supermarket but just use a bit of it at a time to make just one or two cookies then save the rest for next week. Takes 9 mins to bake in my oven. I usually make them with d9. I think that's probably a cleaner high and lingers less - and if course tastes fine. I preferred the rso buzz though. It battered me.
Hehe yup RSO really does taste like crap!🤮
I stir mine into a strong milky coffee - but it won’t win any awards!

This is what I did, dropped it into a small bit of warmed milk and gulped it all down the hatch like a pill, thought best to avoid things that need chewing or I’d be tasting it all night!
Wish I could get blasted on a rice grain size like you guys though… from the 1ML syringe i recently got a 0.2 gave me a great sleep with crazy dreams and a great feeling morning, 0.2 the next day did nothing and then the last 0.6 a few days later did nothing too 😭

I tend to build a tolerance quite quickly but not -that- quickly or to that level. Although I guess I'll put that to the test this weekend.
Definitely a sort of tainted sour botanical taste. I've not tried it in milk but might give that a bash.
Heya BigRoo!
After experimenting with RSO a few times I usually do one of the following methods.
For smaller doses upto around 300mg or so, I would just squirt the RSO onto my fingertip and then suck it off in 1 licking/sucking motion...then quickly wash that down with a strong tasting drink.
If you fancy a bigger dose and dont have giant fingers lol, then I found you can get a little piece of bread, squirt the rso onto it and then kinda fold the bread onto it self so the RSO is inside and then just plop that down the hatch.
Empty capsules as mentioned by comfortablynumb is a good idea too, bit of a pain filling them up. If you wanna try that then give the rso syringe a quick blast with the hairdryer...the liquid comes out so much easier when its warm :)
One word of warning, RSO can often make me feel just as stoned the next morning as I did when i went to bed, especially on larger doses. Once to my Mrs's horror, my eyes where fuuuuucked until about midday the following day haha.

With the rso I popped it in a bag in hot water for a bit before I used it as I always do that to use d9. I'd definitely rather avoid licking it off my fingers though I gotta admit man. The bread might be a winner.
I used to get cookie hangovers making edibles with weed. The d9 is usually pretty forgiving the following day in comparison. I was okay the day after the RSO but it was a Sunday and I got up late. Might have been a different story if I'd had shit to do early.

Hi BigRoo
Thanks for sharing your experience with RSO.
I've been using edibles exclusively for two years now and do not smoke anymore but my experience of edibles is that they are not all created equal ;-)
On that basis I ma curious to find out the differences in products used to make those edibles: shatter, d9, rso, etc
Wide eyed spacey buzz is a good description of the kind of high I get the edibles I like so thanks for sharing.
Cheers

I usually make d9 distillate cookies. I find it's more predictable than using weed and a much cleaner stone. Also tend to not feel so wrecked the day after. The RSO had more complexity going on as a buzz. I liked it.
I've had imported shatter chews before which were really strong. Those put me on my arse.
I still smoke as well though and I've just bought a dab pen which is pretty nice. I mostly use edibles when I aim to get fully blitzed. First you bake the cookies - then the cookies bake you!

I do have some that were given to me with the FECO. I'd forgotten about them. Might try it although it doesn't fit my cookie ritual. I've always quite.liked the preparation part - just like rolling up, a sort of prelude to the stone.
Nice read mate, I love the RSO/FECOs too they're magic aren't they? That deep cerebral thing is just perfect, I havent been able to enjoy them for a while 😢
I've tried a few ways to have it and i'm no baker so always ended up with gap tooth or Hulkfinger or both so now I squeeze it out on a silver Rizla, wrap it and bomb it, nice and easy, no mess.
I remember from an older similar topic one Bigga squeezes theirs on to foil and puts it in the freezer for ten minutes which makes it nice and easy to swallow with a drink, I might try this when i'm able to get involved again!

Regular RSO user here - pain relief - and I find the rizla method works well too, with zero taste.
One of my old mates, when taking fresh mushrooms, would blitz.them in a blender with some water, then freeze it into tablet sized portions and take a load of them just so he didn't have to taste it at all.
I'm not any good.at baking, I just buy cookie mix out the supermarket. You mix it with water / butter. Pretty hard to mess it up. Takes 9 mins in my oven. I usually just bake one or two and save the rest of the mixture in the packet for next time.

Yeah I saw you mention the cookie mix elsewhere on the topic, I think its a belter of an idea and i'm definitely going to have a go at making some myself!
Definitely simplifies something I'd otherwise f**k up. I usually mix distillate with a really tiny bit of warmed butter as I feel it distributes it more evenly through the cookie mix. You'll need some greaseproof paper too. Let me know how you go with it.
Yeah i'm cack handed enough to balls it up pretty easily, that's what led to the RSO delivery system, it's sound logic with the butter too, makes sense to infuse your butters and oils for even distribution, was thinking about infused oils before as i'd quite like to try some savoury edibles.
I've only ever made sweet stuff. Someone was selling d9 crisps here before. I've seen d9 pizza too although I'm not sure I'd want a posted pizza. But I guess people like the cannabis savouries.
Great read mate
Glad to hear that you are enjoying the full spectrum, and over doing it as always 😂
The empty capsules are about the best way I have found to avoid the after taste, you can get all different sizes and they are really cheap.

Thanks man - the feco with the dropper wasn't as bad tasting as it was mixed down and went under the tongue. I'd have some soda water after and it was done and dusted. The RSO I tasted for ages after eating it with chocolate. I am liking the effects though for sure.
Yeah diluting it with MCT oil definitely makes it more palatable. I usually have it with a hot drink and that always washes any taste away.
Made one batch which had a nice flavour so I am tempted to have a go at some single strain batches at some point to see how the terps carry over.

I should get some. I'd be interested to know how the strain effects the final product - let us know if you move forward with it.
I will do.
I have got a couple of plants grown from seeds that I got in some shake.
They will be getting flipped to flower once my last auto is chopped and I hope to do some experimenting with whatever they produce, that will be next year though.

I think if I had a grow I'd play around at kitchen science a lot more often. I used to take trim off a mate but he doesn't do it any more. Sounds like you got a fun setup mate.
I had grown my own for about 6 or 7 years then had to take it down. I endured a year of shit street weed before I found LB💚 which has saved me so much hassle but I have managed to codge a temporary setup together it has got issues but it is producing now so it will keep me going until I can get a decent space sorted out next year. I will still be buying hash and concentrates and the occasional bit of bud on here though because I love the variety.
I'd likely be the same. There's some fantastic bits and bobs pop up on LB. Pink leaf pharmacy got a deal on diamond extracts at min 2for1. I've not ordered any but there's always something like that to tempt me on LB.
Had the wax off them and that was banging, top vendor. I have just bought a mixture of hash from the good stuff or I would have got some of those diamonds
I've had a couple of bits from them which have been excellent. I've not got any hash at the min but had been having eddy's jungle boys clearance cold cure hash which was lovely and then had the green barz hash. I like a bit of posh sticky hash to liven up my spliffs. Looks like you've got a good selection there man.
Try those Betty Crocker brownie mixes you get in the supermarket. Half a 1ml syringe mixed in will do wonders.

Ever heard of a strain called Gringo?

Ever heard of a strain called Gringo?
Apparently the Gringo was an Essex / East London thing. Like we're special or something. I believe it was a cheese cross that had monstered into a potent and flavourful sort of sweet n sour musky weed. It was only available as cuttings not seeds for growers. I've not seen it for years now but part of me hopes someone still has a crop going.
I'm wondering - how far did the Gringo travel? Have you heard of it? For a while it was a sure-fire winner round here. Lovely stuff. Probably around 2004ish.
So - have you had the Gringo? Has your part of the country had any unique strains you've not seen available elsewhere?

I don't ever remember a specific strain called "Gringo" but around the late 90's early 00's Gringo became a generic slang term for any sort of weed in my area of Fife, Scotland
Interesting. It was definitely a thing locally. Perhaps first grown by a Scot who chose that name. "This is the Gringo pal"
I remember Gringo, I'm from Essex. Haven't seen any for over a decade now, but I do remember it. There was also a similar cheese cross doing the rounds in Essex/London called Armageddon at around the same time. Gringo was better tasting but the Armageddon was stronger.
Cheese is a funny strain, at one point it was all you could get on the street (like stardawg today). Then all of a sudden you couldn't get it anymore and the versions that are around now aren't as good. I've found the same with Sour Diesel, can't get a version that tastes like the East Coast Sour D that Grey Area used to sell in Amsterdam back in the day.

I've not seen it for years either. I picked up a bit a couple of years back that had a similar taste but can't remember what it was. I'm pretty sure I've had the Armageddon too as it rings a bell. I wondered how far the Gringo travelled.
I posted a topic on here about old school weed strains as I'll probably do an old school session this month. But I currently don't have the plan or the strains lined up. Eddy's has some Diesel but I've no idea what it's like. It was one of my favourite old strains though as it had a sour musky kick like a silver or an orange making it interestingly tasty.

Eddy's previous batch of the Sour Diesel was excellent, but I don't think that's quite what Blazin has been after either, unfortunately, flavour profile and effects wise.
I had actually considered ordering that this time but I've a soft spot for Skywalker OG and couldn't resist as GC had a batch there.
It's an alright grade Skywalker with the classic blue taste and chilled stone. Not the best one I've had but I've liked blitzing through it this weekend. The blue nerds GC had recently was bloody amazing. One of the nicest bits I've had from LB.
I remember gringo cheese was the loud pack. I was south London based so the ends were flooded with it
I wonder why it didn't get turned into a commercial strain or was not recreated. Seems universally popular amongst those that had it. Glad to know it made it south of the river.
Don't think the gringo made it this far north, but we did have a cheese around that time the guy called it nirvana, we only ever got untrimmed lows but that was better than most of what was around. I can only imagine how good the trimmed tops were though
Seems to be a London / Essex thing. Which is a shame as it was a lovely and distinctive strain. I wonder how many localised strains there's been that are lost now - and if anyone is preserving cannabis genetics like the seed projects we have worldwide.
I’ve only heard of “Gringo” Urban dictionary - “a person, especially an American, who is not Hispanic or Latino”

Memory Lane: Old school weed strain recommendations please

Memory Lane: Old school weed strain recommendations please
I was sent a sample of Afghan Kush by Cannabis Cannibals this week and it got me thinking about doing a week on the old school flavours.
This weekend I've mostly been rolling some super strong bangers. I did a gram of tangerine dream in my first of the day yesterday with mixtures of a couple of types of live resin sugar, jungle boys hash, and blue nerds weed to follow. It's all quite lovely stuff. I've been pretty blasted as planned. Mission accomplished. Well done me. It's rare I get a weekend devoid of responsibilities so it was nice to nullify my ability to take any new ones on.
Anyway, this morning, as I was sat chugging away at the Afghan Kush as my starter for the day, it brought back some flavour memories of the past and I started to think it might be fun to do a week smoking a few old school flavours.
Back in the day (yes I'm an old fella) in the UK you mostly got hash of mixed quality depending upon exactly which era you point at. Weed was usually the Thai stick kind. I'm not planning to go back to then. I remember the first person in my town to bring Skunk in from Amsterdam. Man, he was popular. I can still remember those first few puffs blowing my mind and me heading out to Amsterdam not long afterwards.
Over the years that followed the quality in the UK remained so-so and every trip to Dam showcased new excitement in the form of a new prize winning strain at the top of the menu. I was super excited as I discovered skunk, skuff hash, super skunk, white widow, icolater hash and many more with each trip out there heralding a new treasure. The California orange bud I've heavily covered off in other topics so probably better not dive down that rabbit hole again but it's my favoured flavour profile and was a banker on a Dam trip.
The UK seemed completely backwards in comparison to the scene in Holland although of course it's now been many years since UK weed caught up with the rest of world in terms of a general standard. That being said the obsession with serving up Stardawg perplexes me to this day. How that became and remained a go-to strain will always be beyond me.
There's many strains of yesteryear still widely available on LB that I generally look past as I flavour chase the new tastes - much like the blue nerds. But bits like silver bubble, diesel or blue cheese might be interesting blasts of the past. The silver has a very unique tang to it that I've not had for a while and diesel also has a significant and unique sourness that I've not tasted for a long time. Blue cheese was at one point the only weed I could get. Everyone had it. I wonder what I'd think of it now or if I'd just sigh, "blue cheese again..."
I'm pretty haze averse so I'm unlikely to be going down the lemon, ammy, g13 route but some hazes I do like such as silver haze so I wouldn't fully rule them out. Although I prefer silver bubble to the silver haze. That's the right mix of flavours for me.
It might be nice to have a plain old cheese or a white widow like I mentioned earlier. I've not had the Gringo for years but I'd be into that if it was available.
I'd be interested to see some old school recommendations and have a trip down memory lane. What old school strains do you still actively buy or wish you could buy?
Thanks for reading what turned into a longer piece than I intended. I hope you enjoyed my trip down memory lane or that it was informative at least.
Please let me know your old school strains & stories.

Great read mate, took me back to my first dam trip. A menu for weed 🤯 12 guilders(£4) a gram and the best weed I had smoked.
Allowed to smoke and not made to feel like a criminal and the relaxed atmosphere.
Then walking around stoned AF and having to dodge cyclists who are coming from all directions, ringing their little bells.
I think the white widow was about the strongest I had, but I preferred the orange bud and Hindu kush flavours.👌

you comment is so similar to mine it is uncanny.
first trip the the dam me and a couple of mates headed to what we thought was a coffee shop shyly asked for a menu and she proceeded to tell us they only sold drinks here and we should try across the road at double reggae,
red faced walked across and grabbed my first taste of proper white widow and some super pollen and it was wonderful. then proceeded to participate in traffic which was a sight to see, those 6 foot dutch women riding cycles at 20 mph with thighs like ronnie colemans biceps :P i headed straight into one saw her did the left and right jiggle then ended up with the front wheel between my legs ahah.
follow that up by getting to the hotel stepping in the elevator and not actually pushing the button. 1 min later the doors opened and the receptionist was still there looking at us and then burst into laughter at 3 red eyed tourists.

There was a magic in first being, and then on subsequent trips, seeing, an English tourist on their first trip to Dam just commented similar. Brings back memories. Good times man although I'm bloody glad I don't have to travel hundreds of miles to smoke something decent now.
Aye, I remember the gilders. The exchange rate was favourable so not only were you in the mind-blowing and often eye opening (sometimes eye popping) situation you describe, it was at a bargain rate. I haven't been out there in fifteen years now. The euros made it comparable to bowling around London in terms of prices. I guess it'd be less of a culture shock now and.the weed would be similar to what I smoke anyway. I still wish the UK would catch up with much of the rest of the world and adopt a tolerant cannabis culture of some kind. As you say it was enlightening to be able to blaze a spliff and not be a criminal in the process but a tourist.
Aside from my first trip, when I fitted.the profile myself, we used to look for the typical English tourist on their first trip who'd roar into the coffee shop, buy every bit from the top of the menu, start smoking, get halfway through, and start to realise they'd bitten off a wee bit more than they could chew.
I think the nicest bit I had last trip was a bubblegum (don't quote me) and also had an ice hash that was ridiculously strong. My mate who I was with happily tried all the weeds but three puffs of that and it, he said, "ruined my whole night"!

I used to work for the company that brewed Heineken in the UK which was a great excuse to frequently visit the Dam "On The Billy's" (Billy Liar=Business Expense Claim Form). Amazing times...
More than half of our team at work definitely wouldn't be trusted on expenses in Dam. That half includes me.
I remember sitting outside a bar at least 6 feet away from the canal (probably more). All 5 of us were holding onto the sides of our chairs convinced at any minute we were for some inexplicable reason going to tip into the water. We thought the ground was tilting that way and the gradient was slowly increasing. For some reason we couldn't stand up. We just sat there like a group of total fucking idiots anxiously laughing!
19 years ago on my 14th birthday I was given 1g of white widow and 1g of ak47 by my older brother. Never had an example of those strains that has come close to how good they were. The ak 47 had crazy terps that left a sour taste on the side of your tongue for hours after. The widow was coated in sticky milky white trichs, pretty sure it’s where the rumour of weed being laced with coke came from lol. Never seen ak or widow like them since.
I've not had AK for years now. That might be an interesting one to find again. White widow I remember well from Dam.
I could do with a mate like that! I vaguely remember the SAGE. I'm definitely going to have an old school session at some point.
Lovely piece mate, nice. Old very familiar, to a 90s boy like me. Not just that, but having a couple of days to really have a go at your stash. Love it. Good haze is always one for me, but I have a sweet tooth. I do remember one called white tiger, that I've not seen since. Skuff royal...🤤.
Druids Magic have shiva skunk on its way. Not a strain I've tried, but was a favourite picture in the 90s sensi seed catalogue. Basically bud porn for teenage boys. Couldn't just Google it back then 😂

Its available now mate- just drop DM a line for a custom. Its very old school indeed- I woke up covered in pizza crusts lol...
I think I might remember the catalogue or one like it. I ordered some bits from a magazine to look at growing back then which I never went forward with. I remember the two booklets I had though. One explained how to grow and one was a seed catalogue. This would be 1992 ish. I can remember Northern Lights, Purple Haze, Blueberry and various others were in there although the list was short, maybe 20 options at most. Like you say I used it like bud porn and read it over and over.
I'm pretty haze averse these days. The lemon haze locally was abundant and just seemed to get worse each generation. I'm curious actually to try a lemon haze from LB but with a thousand other products available here, probably not -that- curious.

Now I remember being sold Orange Bud by some guy back when I went to the weed man and we were happy he sold weed. Actually he was probably the hash guy who occasionally got decent Red Seal, back in the mid '90s. Was this Orange Bud, or was the man a bullshitter? Thinking back through the annals of time I'm thinking it was about £30/Q? When the Red Seal was probably similarly priced due to rarity and alright hash without plastic in was about £80/oz.
I only ever got it in UK in early 2000s it was around £120/oz but it actually had a nice orange flavour which stood out against the general shit of the day. I am sure my memories are enhanced by nostalgia and my tolerance at the time.
I think it would need a crazier name to get noticed in today's market though.
I think it would need a crazier name to get noticed in today's market though.
Yeah, it would have been around then. I'm calling bullshit then as I've suspected for a long time, and the weed man called it that as it was particularly hairy and orange due to that. That's a huge reason I'm glad of this place: you can pretty much guarantee you're getting what it says on the tin.
remember purple haze from the late 90s early 2000 bro ?? man smooth as silk and the high was sooo chill bro.
thats still like that round hear mate i found a local plug first couple of deals were ok then the dick bag sold me Myrrh buds like i couldn't tell the difference , because Hindus smoke it to get rid of body odor. needless to say i've done with street dealers...
The only purples I ever got were like smoking perfume, put me off purples scarred for life.
The original orange bud was a creeper of significant proportion. You'd blaze through a spliff, taste was completely unique with a dank sour note, then, after you stubbed it out the secondary hit would begin to kick in.
I've not had that nor can remember ever seeing it. Sounds blooming marvellous as a strain though.
Sour Kush. Had a m8 grow it years ago, the best clout I have had from a strain and the taste was one of a kind. I've never been lucky enough to have it again but always looking for it on here 😁
There's certain strains I routinely look for on here too that seem to have been left behind. I've not gone old school this week but it'll happen eventually. Might download an era specific TV series too for the full effect.

Is this the strongest product - ever?
I read this brilliant review for WPFF ice hash by the very lovely Mighty Rux a while back (linked). The product is no longer available but the review is worth the read nonetheless.
He says that it is 'probably the strongest stuff' he's smoked 'ever'. Having run into Mighty Rux a number of times on LB, I appreciate that if he says it's the strongest product he's smoked then it's quite likely to be the strongest stuff I'll smoke. There was of course the disclaimer of 'probably' in his statement.
Payday is looming so I might make a dive for something special. What's the strongest product you've had? There's all sorts on here like cured badder, shatter, diamonds, Piatella, WPFF hash and solventless extracts. When you spend the big bucks on a treat to get you fully blasted - where is your money going?

My best highs don’t come from the strongest products, it’s much more about quality. The search for strength is much more related to Biggas battling tolerance. I’ve discussed this with Ruxxy- there is every chance I get ‘higher’ on a microdose than he does on a blasting simply because his tolerance is on another planet.
Full spectrum products delivering a full ‘entourage’ effect deliver the power highs. If you want to test that theory at the sharp end go for a good quality RSO or FECO added to a cookie or hot drink. But go steady on the dosage! 😂

What can I say? I like to keep, and you provide, wise counsel.
I collapsed after a couple of RSO and mushroom chocolates (and a joint of Great White Shark as I was coming up) a couple of months ago, so there's a definite limit to tolerance. Spent a good 5 minutes with my face pressed against the cold tiles, panting, being one with the floor. Then we went to the cinema.

More that I paid money and that happened, really. Only ever happened to me that once. My girlfriend was horrified when I mentioned it, so it may only ever happen once!
It wasn't my finest moment. I was making quite strong (for me) cookies but it left 100mg in the syringe so figured I might as well use it all up as I'll never make a cookie out of 100mg. It turned out it tipped it over to be a wee bit too strong for me. I'd say lesson learned but honestly it won't be. To be fair the hour before and the couple of hours after were fine. Just a minor hiccup in the middle there.
Face pressed into cold tiles while panting is a stone level I don't desperately crave, I must admit. Every so often I find the outer edge of my tolerance with cookies but I'm usually pretty careful. I overdid it on my last session and ended up laying with my head back as random images shot through my brain with my eyes closed for about half an hour (felt like that - was probably 3 minutes) before I got a handle on it. But no face-tile-panting. Was the film good?
Yeah, pretty good. It was the Ghost concert documentary thingy. Cinema was really cold, and not helped by the shrooms, I'm sure.
I don't do acid / shrooms anymore. I feel I have a bit too much baggage to take with me now. But even back in the day I'd have struggled being somewhere like that I think. I'd usually get out amongst nature. My mates went to see Gremlins 2 at the cinema on purple ohms and had a freak out when the gremlins take over the projector. They ran out the cinema.
I remember them explaining it to me and I thought they'd hallucinated it. Was a while later I finally saw the film and realised what has happened. Every time I randomly see the film I still think about it.
I've not had rso. I usually buy distillate for cookies as I tend not to get the cookie hangover I used.to.get doing it with weed. I guess I should give it a go at some point - and I'm out of distillate so may order rso this time.
I don't bother with the cookies now, just drop one of these and have a kitkat 😂

I unfortunately don't make enough to sell it mate but if you buy some rso or feco off here you can buy mct oil and empty caps on amazon for the same effect.👍
I might well order some rso this month instead of distillate to check it out. Do you make it with alcohol washing?
Yeah it's a long soak technique with isopropyl alcohol. I did a write up about a simplified method I will put a link.
I mostly use it for pain, I rub it in to my old back and feet and any muscle strains, but I can't resist topping off my buzz with a bit now and then

Just read your piece mate, does it really work rubbing it into an injury? That's pretty interesting as, although I mostly don't have to take it, I'm prescribed a lot of stuff for a back injury for when I do have problems.
Yeah mate it helps me, if you want to try it out give me a message and I will send you some to try.
Free 1mL RSO AND a Hulk Cookie if you order (and it's confirmed? Not sure of the logistics of that...) in the next 55 minutes.

Don't ever spend more than 50 buck for a single gram of cannabis no matter which form its in.
NO.1 in it's country of origin, where the vendors buy, it's less than half the price they charge at the very least.
no 2 canna gets you high for what 30 mins then youre on the way down.
3 try a dmt live resin vape, pure dmt and pure live resin, to understand what being high really means.

1. You just described nearly every product on LB.
2. Ok? It’s weed, we know.
3. You should try heroin to understand what being high really means.. /s.

yes pay a hundred pounds for a single gram hash, and enjoy it! That's the way, get that 30 min stone down you, then knock it off with a bit of heroin yes thats the way.
So far I haven't spent more than the 50 although I likely will for something special like a Piatella simply as I'd like to try it.
As for the try -something other than weed- I have man, I've been there and ticked many boxes. I only smoke weed these days, I just like a kickass strong bit.

Strongest stuff I’ve had was some live resin sugar/wax from here, think it was from euroterps(?) as a sample, never had it before and think I went in strong as used about 1/2 of the sample, had a bit on top of some weed in a pipe, 10 mins later I pretty much couldn’t move and couldn’t even put a sentence together to talk to the wife, I kept dozing off as was knackered but every time I woke up I’d sit up with a jolt and it felt like I was coming up/rushing on a pill…mental stuff!
Got some on order from hebba1.5 now, hopefully that will be similar!! 🤯😵💫

I've actually got some live resin sugar wax on order from pink leaf pharmacy as they have a 2 for 1 offer on. I think it ends today or tomorrow. I've not had this type of extract before but hopefully it will be ideal for the weekend.
im just gonna say what everyone else is thinking...
you have a fucking massive ego and you're absolutely full of yourself
go and shove that DMT pen up your jacksey and get back to us, pure messiah complex on you dude 😆

Most intense experience I have had is from eating 4 of the full spectrum gummys from Dr Distillate.
For smokables its either the guapicana hash from Thc23 or the purple barz la

Edibles - it's definitely easy to overdo it and end up not in an entirely pleasant state. I think I'll get some rso this month. I've only had the green level Barz. Should really spend out and try the others.
Diamonds in sauce for me when i want to get really blasted. Pretty narrow spectrum, but yeeehaaa lol

Rock Star Level Hash - Piatella spotted on LB

Rock Star Level Hash - Piatella spotted on LB
Piatella. It is meant to be the rock star level hashish. Apparently. To be fair I've never actually had any - only read about it.
Currently mycoconauts (who I've not ordered from before) have a Lemon Skunk Piatella at $58 gram. Follow the link to check it out.
So why has this apparently magic hash captured my imagination?
I've made basic hash several times now. I've had good results and I've had poor results plus everything in between. A couple are written up as topics on my profile here. While I'm not actually the most massive hash smoking fan, and certainly not an expert, I am utterly fascinated with the process.
Depending upon what your starting materials are, the process you use, how carefully you run it, will result in wildly different qualities of hash.
At one end of the scale you get the light and calming daytime smoke for someone who is meant to be doing something else but felt a break was needed. At the other end you have the full space cowboy high grade smoke for someone who'll be doing little else that evening but grinning at people and being confused by the complexity of opening sweet wrappers.
There are lots of interesting hash making techniques from traditional hand rolled to the modern static method and the even newer plasma static process that can create a static sift in an automated way. That's worth seeing - some clever sciency folk figured out that the nice tasty trichome heads that get you wasted and the rest of the plant were oppositely charged and thus could be separated at speed using lots of static electricity to draw them apart. The application of human genius at its finest. But back to ice water hash and the piatella.
The piatella, from what I can tell, starts life with an expert ice water separation. This will be using high quality materials and taking a large amount of care to separate the heads only and not any plant materials. This will create a full melt hash base.
Following on from this the next key part is to make sure the product doesn't oxidise. This is why regular hash is usually darker - oxidisation - from exposure to air and heat. Freeze drying must be used to limit that while making sure all the water is successfully removed.
With a regular hash you'd likely heat and press the hash in some way to get the trichomes reacting for a long term storage once it was dry. With Piatella, to keep it from oxidising, it's vacuum wrapped and cold cured for months. As the terpines naturally try to leach out but cannot escape the vacuum pack they react inwards instead. And that's apparently where the light colour and fudgy consistency come from. This process takes months of planning, processing, love and care, hence the artisan price tag, but is meant to preserve the fresh taste and high quality of the product. It's essentially a solventless 'natural' extract.
It's this last part that I'm particularly fascinated by. Like any human innovation I look at, I'm always perplexed to think about how someone stepped it through in their brain as a process.
Anyway, I spotted this Piatella available and as it's pretty rare I thought I'd flag it up to everyone on LB. I'm pretty tempted myself so may jump on board the piatella train after payday as a treat.
I must admit I find it a little hard to justify the price particularly while the LA Barz hash is a smidgen cheaper but as it's so rare I might just dip in for a taste of something I've only read about. They say to never meet your heros - so will this be the like the moment I discovered a rock star I'd admired for many years was actually a wee bit of dick?
Have you had the Piatella? Would you consider it? Is it a disappointing washed up rock star? Or is it the full Rolling Stone? Let me know your thoughts below...
As always, thanks for reading, I hope it was of interest and if not I hope it was entertaining at least. I'll see you in the next topic.

Eddy has got the jungle boys cold cured on clearance sale for $25 for a g and it is 🔥. Really tempted by the piatella, but like you it is still just a touch north of my price limit.
I've just ordered the jungle boys from Eddy's so thanks for the heads up. Yeah it's hard (for me) to justify the price of the piatella for anything other than a special occasion although due to the rarity I am pretty tempted to celebrate pay day with a little sample. That's sort of a special occasion. Only get twelve paydays a year.
It’s not the nicest shit I’ve dabbed but an extremely unique, taste, high and experience for the price. Will definitely be buying more, in fact, I’ll be buying it as long as it’s on the store
Not really mate, just left with that golden honey-like stain across the banger. No sign of any nasties or anything 👍🏻
Sat and had a few last night so I could get a good feel of the high and I’m genuinely really liking it. Won’t sit here and say pistella has changed my life but I think it’s almost important to have a little pot like this in your inventory

Thanks man. That's etched me towards boarding the piatella train. What is the nicest you've had?
Some of the nicest dabs I’ve had were some black mamba diamonds I had off someone on here ages ago can’t remember who. A close second will be a more recent purchase of Peaches n Cream micro diamonds from 420buds. It’s not on his menu but if you message about his concentrate collection I’m sure he’ll advise 👍🏻
I tried it and to be honest, while it’s very clean in the banger, I agree with Euroterps that it’s more likely good quality BHO. The terps are just not very strong and it doesn’t have a hash-like taste. Also the consistency is more like a budder/shatter. At this price I’d rather pay a little more and get some top tier hash rosin from a UK producer e.g subzero extracts/reytrosin etc. You would be surprised some of this UK rosin is admired by even people in the US.
Having said that myco is always very generous with his portions so that makes up for it and it is still some high quality stuff, just prob not piatella.

Probably right tbf mate, never tried it before but I think it’s still worth noting that can never expect real piatella at the price it’s sold for. Plus I still think it’s a really lovely smoke. Cant quite afford the likes of the SZ rosin but always used him to get my mood mats and bangers! Very jealous!
Yes I would expect piatella to go for £80-100 a g as does HR from the likes of SZ. I’ve only tried that tier of stuff a handful of times and tbh it’s such a headache actually finding a reseller, keeping it in the fridge to preserve the flavour etc that it really is a once in a lifetime thing.
Best I’ve ever tried was ‘the hive’ hash rosin by reytrosin, that shit was honey and papaya flavoured pure melting goodness 😌

I’m gonna be ordering some next week when I get paid. I’ve wanted to try Piaetella for ageees!
I'm not sure if I'll order it or not. As always there's too much choice on LB and I've always got a stack of things I want to check out that have been waiting for payday. It's rare it appears though and this one is a strain that might produce really interesting results and below the previous 'kidney for sale' price point I've seen it sold at. If you get some let me know how it is man.
I hear ya BigRoo!
$58 a gram is more than i usually pay for other extracts like live resins and crumbles and its definitely way more than i've ever spent on a single gram of hash before....but i mean just look at it...its not really even recognisable as what i would call hash lol. It's some golden yellowy gorgeous glob of what looks more like budder than hash.
I'm certainly not expert on the process of making it but it looks time consuming & complicated compared to many other types of hash making or extraction.
I'm just going to grab a gram so I i can say I have tried it :)

Completely agree. I'll regularly get shatter / sugar / wax from LB at half the price of this stuff. And it's hard to imagine it being twice as nice. But I still want to try it.
BTW THAT IS NOT I REPEAT NOT PIATELLA, ITS SOME KIND OF BHO/OTHER EXTRACT being vacuum packed.
There is a level of difference especially since its way too golden for Piatella. Piatella usually is white/greyish, this looks like some vacuum pressed resin BHO not piatella. Real piatella does not have such a color homie. This is made to look like piatella so you can get charged more. Piatella either is brownish or white/grey, not yellow golden like bho would appear.
no hate just honest opinion.

Ok so I have been producing and consuming extracts since about 2015. I've been to Spain and tried Piatella from uncles farm and la kolada farms, I've also been to Colorado and Oregon and tried their version of cold cure water hash and I've tried it from black cats dead rats in den haag.
This is 100% cold cure water hash. If you leave the jar out at room temp for a few hours, you start to get terp bleed.
You do not get terp bleed with bho, even with top shelf badder, the terps and cannabinoids stay together and don't bleed out.
I have also dropped some in iso, where it dissolves and leaves a small residue. Bho dissolves completely in iso as there is no plant residue, where as piatella still has a small amount of plant material.
That said, it's not piatella cos piatella is a brand name, from Uncles farm. Not all phones are Iphones and not all cold cure water hash is piatella.
But I am extremely confident this is not a solvent based extraction (excluding the fact that water is actually a solvent)

Can tell you with absolute certainty that this is infact not ice water extracted "hash".
I have never seen any ice water extracted work or drysift/ static hash which had such color, but when using i.e. Butane as extracting agent the extract always looks golden yellow like that (depending on the material used) but typically its that yellow golden when a material with terpenes is extracted with i.e. a butane based gas mixture (blasted through the material and then pushed through one or multiple micron mesh screens by the high gas pressure)
Why its not ice water hash / wpff / piatella (just google these types on google pictures and youll see):
Such golden color is only achieved if the cannabinoids and terpenes are extracted evenly. That is only possible if the terpenes and cannabinoids are being dissolved. Which is not the case with i.e. water as "solvent" because water actually is not a solvent, its a MEDIUM. Hash is produced by mechanical separation whereas extracts are produced by dissolving and filtering the solvent mixture used to extract the product.
this golden colour can only be achieved when high pressure pressing flower or trichomes/kief, which would be solventless and in fact of a different consistency (wax/shatter).
Pretty sure (99.9%) that this is a solvent based extract, therefore not real Piatella.

Hash making challenge: Can I make $25 worth of hash from $25 worth of trim?

Hash making challenge: Can I make $25 worth of hash from $25 worth of trim?
Since my last hash experiment was a disaster (see rolling tray hash topic) I'm hoping to redeem myself with this challenge. Can I make $25 worth of hash from $25 worth of trim?
Now, $25 worth of hash could mean many things. You can buy 1g of a high grade hash for that. In my case I'm going to use a commercial hash as a benchmark. This is for a couple of reasons. 1. I have a twenty five buck hash already. 2. It's a fair target to hit.
The benchmark hash:
The hash is Rasta Mafia from the wonderful Shroom of the Loom. It's $25 per 3.5g and you can see it at the link below. It sits between a Moroccan crumble and and Afghan black in taste and consistency. The stone is pretty solid. I'd buy this hash again. But can I beat it?
https://littlebiggy.net/link/agse21
The product for the hash challenger:
Just after I'd bought the afore mentioned hash, the very lovely folks at Cannabis Cannibals had a clearance sale on their trim. The lower grade of the two they had was $25 for 28g. And thus the idea of the $25 hash challenge was born.
Place your bets:
Can I make 3.5g of (at least) commercial grade hash from 28g of trim?
As I write this my trim is in the post and I've utterly no idea how this will work out. Obviously you don't have to wait for the post. From your perspective these words are the highlights of a lengthy event. But I have to wait. I'm currently betting that I can beat the benchmark hash. That I will get a 3.5g back. And it'll be lovely to smoke.
Which way are you betting? Are you a believer? I hope you will comment which way you thought it'd go honestly at the end.
My equipment:
I don't have much. I'll be using a filter and ice. A lot of ice. Plus water, plastic bottles and gravity. And if that goes well I'll be using some long bendy tube as a syphon and some coffee filters to capture the final hash.
You are allowed to change your bet.
Now I wait. If you've not made hash before those three words sum up much or the process.
The product arrived:
I've never bought trim before and I'm not sure this is all that great. It was however less than half the price of most shakes and was the lower of the two grades available. Hopefully it will suffice for this experiment. Although I am much less confident than I was some paragraphs ago in this article. The bets still on. Let's find out.
Freezing:
I've had the trim in the freezer overnight. I've added ice to it. I'm super chilling some bottles of water and have several packs of clean ice ready. Top tip - if you ever use bought ice from a supermarket for hash making you'll never buy it again. It's unreal how many impurities are in it. Freeze your own ice. If you're making posh hash then I'd go as far a leaving water to evaporate chemicals out prior to chilling it - or buying mineral water. That's not needed here though.
Processing:
I ice washed 3 grades. First is from gentle agitation with ice and ice water. Second from less gentle agitation. Third has had the significant agitation that only a blender can provide and it's not been second filtered (although it's sieved). I want to see what grade that ends up as as it includes stuff I'd routinely throw away.
I can already see skant amounts of what will likely be good hash forming in bottles 1 & 2 and copious amounts of what will likely be a rough as hell hash in 3.
After a few hours that pretty much sums up what I'm getting.
The output:
After syphoning and filtering and drying I'm left with 1g of the grade 1, 1.8g of grade 2 and it doesn't matter how much of grade 3 as that experiment was clearly a disaster. It was mostly plant material. I ended up crushing it as it was so cardboardy and then alcohol washing a spliffs worth of extract out of it. It's interesting how much plant material the early filtering actually removes.
The result:
So I got 2.8g of hash (pictured) plus I'd likely have got another gram or more from the final wash it I wasn't fuckarsing around. I'm willing to bank it as an eighth. So what's it like? Did I beat my $25 dollar hash with $25 trim? Which way did you bet? Because the answer is......
.... No. Definitely not. Buy the twenty five bucks hash from Shroom of the Loom and save yourself a lot of time and hassle. The hash I made is alright. Smokable. Definitely gets you stoned. Strength is comparable to the Rasta Mafia bit but it's just not as nice to smoke. If I offered you a choice of the two you'd have shroomies hash in a second.
Conclusion:
I've made hash a number of times. Mostly with good results from fresh frozen plants. One of the best hashes I've ever had was one I made. It was from a wispy crop of lemon haze given to me by a mate. It's a weed I don't even particularly like. However, processed into a hash it made the tastiest hash I'd had at the time and it left you with face sweat after 3 tokes. That's what I'd like to recreate. If ever I do I'll probably start selling it on LB just so someone else here believes me.
I guess if I was to run this same process with a higher quality material I'd get a better result. The issue would be if I paid $60 for the shake, I'd be aiming to create a $60 hash and I expect the result would comparatively be the same but from one rung higher on the hash ladder; instead of failing to match a $25 hash I'd fail to match a $60 hash.
So I guess the ultimate conclusion is the one that I expect many people bet on to start with. Buy hash. This is good advice. There's a hash at every level and price tag on LB. Buy it, get stoned, and enjoy the time you're not faffing with ice and bottles and filters. You will not have to Jenga stack the items in your fridge to make way for hash making. You will not get the unique flavour of green liquid in your mouth. There are many plus points to just buying hash. Buy it, smoke it, enjoy it, simple.
Will I do this again? It makes little sense to but that's never stopped me before so of course I will. At some point in the future my curiosity will pique and I'll find myself writing another one of these articles to share what went wrong.
Thanks for reading my topic. I hope it was informative and if not I hope it entertained you at least. I'll see you next time.

Brilliant all round amigo- wish we had more of these type of posts on LB and they hung around the wall for longer!
I'm way too lazy and inept to believe for a minute I could compete with whats available on here but I applaud your efforts all the way!

Thanks Polly. One of these days an experiment of mine will pan out and amaze everyone - especially me. I guess all great things are built off of the back of many failures and I'm simply plowing through the preliminary failure stage. It's actually odd some of the posts that linger on the wall - some that are clearly timely like Christmas offers. The algorithm is a mystery to me.
Fantastic piece, mate. Loved it. Just the sort of shit I get up too. I'm playing around making carts at the minute. I had the same deal. Found myself opening a Oz of trim thinking what the fuck now. I decarbed it, ground it in pestle and mortar, mixed it with a bag of sweetener. Now when I have a cup of green tea, it makes the whole kitchen smell, and looks like run off from watering the house plants. However about half an hour after you finish chewing, it will fuck you up nicely. Good work, and keep up the experiments. The hash looks like something you cut off the back of a sheep, but there is joy in the process. Nice one
Cheers G
Cheers G
Thanks man. I've never had decarb canna tea but it's a good shout and probably the most efficient use for it.
Well done sir!
I'm honestly impressed you got so much return.
You could make it more fun by taking it a step further and press some juicy rosin out of that ice hash ;)

Thanks man. I've not done that before but I'll get to it one day. This bit will stay as hash.
Excellent entertainment as always mate. I guessed that you wouldn't, but it is the journey not the result that is what I tell myself every time I make some unconsumable concoction. So you don't be too hard on yourself my latest fuck up was allowing 5g of bubble hash to get mould on it because I didn't dry it properly 😱 Bubble bags work a treat but the operator is a stoner and a liability 🤣
The hash is smokable and is strong enough to be worthwhile rolling for more than curiosity. We're not at the rolling tray hash level of terribleness. I'll leave some to cure properly but I already know the improvement will be marginal. I guess it was a fun day in the kitchen and it satisfied my curiosity for a while. I was going to test a new cold drying method this time but the product wasn't worth the faff.
Best part of 3g and a day's entertainment for $25, you can't knock that. You got more than I thought I guessed about 1g. If it is smokable aswell then it was a success.
I think my micro method is probably more efficient than the bags but also probably messier and wouldn't work at any scale. I've thought of cheap ways to refine it but I don't do it enough, nor have enough material for it to be anything more than a sidetrack really. Pity I don't grow as I guess that's the ideal position for experimentation.
The grow surplus is definitely the best material to use, easy come easy go and you have the buds to Cheer you up if it goes wrong. One day I hope I will grow more than I can smoke then I will take CC's advice get a rosin press and squash all the goodness out of it
If I had a bit more space I'd probably set something up just as a hobby. Not least for the fun playing with extract and rosin as well as hash experiments. It's definitely different playing with wastage. As it is thank goodness for LB.
It would be great if you could make a video showing the process the next time you make some 😬

Beginners guide to buying weed online from Little Biggy

Beginners guide to buying weed online from Little Biggy
I thought it might be helpful to add this to the feed for newbies. However, Budzhino has a fantastic buyers guide which I've linked. That goes through everything step by step in a nice, measured & detailed way which I fail to. I recommend reading it.
Below is my guide to buying weed online from little biggy in 7 easy steps.
It's probably worth adding that the LB website is very clunky. Particularly on a profile page. You may have to wait for a page to load like you're browsing the internet in 1998. It's worth the wait though.
If you have questions, ask the LB community or ask the vendor. You'll quickly find people who'll do their best to help you out.
Here's your buyers guide:
Step 1. Find some weed that you like.
Simply find weed or hash or extract, rosin, shatter, vapes, edibles, distillates, oils, mushrooms or whatever else is for sale. Whatever it is that floats your boat - find that. This is the fun bit. Whatever your taste or product kink is you're going to have multiple options to fulfil your desires.
Go to the items page and scroll through or search by keyword. There's currently 900+ items from 90+ vendors. If you don't find something you like then you are on the wrong website. If you're a massive pothead like me you'll likely find hundreds of items that you want to buy.
The topics page will contain some promotions and competitions amongst posts like this one. Vendors also post new strains they have on topics.
Part of the protection of buying via LB is in front of you as you look at each listing. There are anonymous reviews and ratings on the products left by buyers. Read them. Look at the ratings. This will help steer you toward quality products and reliable vendors. After you make your purchase please also review your items to help the community .
You need to select your country to show the prices. Then click buy. And checkout if you're ready. You can add multiple items from different vendors into the same cart for checkout.
You are now very close to being very stoned. This is easy - right?
Step 2. Check the vendor
Now, some vendors will not deal with newbies until you have a number of prior purchases. Often between 5-15. This will limit the initial number of vendors you can buy from, mostly to larger vendors. It sounds unfair but it's not. Some scammers try to abuse the protection systems from newbie accounts. Such vendors will likely refuse your order so check on the vendor page by clicking on their name from the listing or cart page. They will clearly state a minimum order number if they have one.
Step 3. Get some Bitcoin
Before you buy anything you're going to need a method to buy and send bitcoin. This isn't anything to be scared of. It seems a faff the first couple of times but is relatively straightforward once you've done it a few times. Be aware of fees as occasionally, if the network is busy, these can be costly.
A favoured wallet here would be Exodus as there's no personal checks to use it but there's many alternatives. The same for buying bitcoin. If your order is $50 you will need more than $50 to cover the order cost plus fees. You can (usually) check this in the wallet so you know how much bitcoin you need to buy.
Step 4. Send the payment
Once you've got a shopping cart filled with loveliness and you know your vendors deal with newbies (you can always message them if you are concerned) it's time to checkout so you can space out.
Assuming you have completed step 3 then you have some bitcoin waiting in a wallet somewhere itching to turn itself into cannabis. If not, now is the time to face that. Have a watch of someone running through the process of buying and moving bitcoin on YouTube.
Once you have your wallet ready then you can pay for your order. Enter address details and click to pay it. It'll take you to an escrow screen by transaxe. Open your wallet and select to send a bitcoin payment. You need to copy the bitcoin amount and the address into the corresponding sending boxes in your wallet Check the fees & all details. This is a very simple process once you've become used to it.
Then you need to send the bitcoin. Depending on your fee level and network traffic will depend upon how long it will take to complete.
Step 5. Payment protection / shipping
Once your payment has gone through it will sit in transaxe escrow. The vendor will not have access to your money until 8-13 days after. This allows you to open a dispute if something has not gone right. It is possible to open a late dispute after this time too. However in the first instance you are best off messaging the vendor and giving them time to reply and solve whatever your issue is.
You will get a message saying your order is paid and the vendor will ship your items.
Your orders tab will update once they have shipped.
Step 6. Wait.
Generally the top vendors are also very fast at sending orders out. Next day / signed for services exist but generally cost extra. But this is the worst bit. You have your stoner kit at the ready and can almost taste the dank flavour of what you ordered but you have to wait for Postman Pat to pop it through your letterbox. I don't know what to advise. Learn a new skill. Read a book. Do yoga. Go skydiving. Appreciate nature. Fill in your waiting time in a positive and meaningful way.
Step 7. Get stoned as f**k.
Before you know it, Pat is there with his black and white cat popping a discreet parcel filled with secret magic through your letterbox and you'll be smoking / vaping / edibling such a wide range of high quality THC products from that point forward that you'll wish you had found LB years ago.
Wrap up a banger and sit and consider how easy it all was while scrolling the item list, "I'll have one of those.... And one of those.... That I've not seen for years.... Two of those...."
If something has gone wrong with your order and you can't sort it with the vendor directly then the dispute system is there to help you. It's these systems along with the review feedback system that make LB so appealing to buy from.
It was easy huh. And now you are stoned. Like me.

Flavour Chasing - BigRoos Orange Day

Flavour Chasing - BigRoos Orange Day
Orange Fandom:
I'm a fan of orange strains. I particularly like the dank bitter citrus tang of the old orange bud you got in the 'dam coffee shops along with the delayed sledgehammer stone that followed twenty mins after you smoke it. It's not for everyone but it is for me. There's a few orange strains I've had in the past like Orangina (KIG) or Orange Glue that have had the special taste and feel of nostalgia but it's seemingly not the most popular flavour.
On LB - of course - there's a fair few orange options to choose from so I thought it'd be fun to have an orange day and report my experience back. So I've ordered a mix of orange hash, orange weed and orange extracts to chase the flavour memories of the past.
Questions:
Will it be too much of a orange thing?
Will it bring back a taste of the past?
Will I be too stoned to care?
Let's find out.
---
Special Orangey Thanks:
Firstly a special thanks to Shroom of the Loom for sending me a couple of testers with my last order. The mimosa punch was really bloody nice. It didn't tick the very specific old tasting void I was trying to fill but my word it was grown to perfection and got me super excited for my orange day. I know a lot of people prefer the mimosa flavour to other orange strains precisely because it's has less of a bitter dark orange tang. If that's you, you can check it out here: https://littlebiggy.net/link/XjhiLB

Orange Day - The Session:
This is the bit we've all been waiting for. I definitely have anyway. Everything before this was like the trailers at the cinema. But now the lights are going down, the volume is going up and the curtains are opening to full wide screen. I'm settling in to enjoy the ride. Please join me as the action kicks off. Hopefully my chair will be more comfortable though.
Tangie Berry:
First up, Tangie Berry. It may seem like an odd choice for orange day but this has a grandparent of original c-orange bud; the precise old flavour I'm chasing.
The Tangie Berry has a super strong smell to it. It's a really strong mix of gas and sour citrus rind. One of the strongest smells I've encountered. On arrival the closest smell I could equate it to was being like wd40 or furniture polish but after a couple of days in a jar it'd tamed to a more satisfyingly citrus / orangey aroma. It definitely doesn't smoke like wd40 so no one dive off down a conspiracy rabbit hole but it also doesn't carry the special dank tang of its old orange bud grandpa either. It's still a good start to the session and it definitely has tons of fruit flavour. It's so strong that the next couple of bits through the grinder pick up the smell. I'd buy this again despite the overwhelmingly curious fragrance.
Mixed with Orange Hash:
Mixing it with the orange n apricot static hash is a potent combination which should help move things forward at pace. The static hash is touch crumble and leaves you with sticky fingers. It's a great addition to the Tangie Berry but the TB overpowers any flavour. And at this early start point I sense the writing will get messy as I plough forwards. The effects of the orange hash and Tangie Berry bud mixture is making my face sweat.
The orange hash smells citrus fresh as you crumble it but smoking it on its own doesn't add much orange flavour to my party. However it's nicely strong and you feel much different after smoking it than you did before you started. It's a really clean smoke. I see most hash as a joint topper rather than it's own thing as I'm yet to find a hash that isn't better rolled with weed. Open to suggestions there.
Citrodelic Sunset:
Next up we have the Citrodelic Sunset bud. This is the second time I've had this and I already know I like it. It's got strong hints of the dank tang of sour orange I crave but mixed in with lighter citrus and fruity notes. It's more of a tease than full orangecore but it's a small taste of the past to help feed my memories. The stone profile too feels similar to old orange bud in that it's a heavy one with a delayed onset. I like this. I'll probably order it a third time.
Let's add wax:
The orange Creamsicle wax isn't the easiest to work into a joint as it suddenly shifts from solid to goo on your fingers but part of the joy of extracts is the challenge of rolling up without ending up with stickier hands than Spider-Man. Both the waxs have distinct citrus smells that's heavily overridden by the spirited smell of strong fresh resin.
For my first extract roller I've mixed orange Creamsicle wax with Citrodelic Sunset bud. Taste and effect are pretty close to perfection. Orange day was a good idea. You should do this folks if you aren't already. It's a pretty expensive idea at the rate I'm going but a good one nonetheless. I like it.
Triple orange mixture:
I've followed this up with a triple mix of Citrodelic Sunset, white nectarine wax and a layer of the orange static hash on top. The white nectarine seems easier to handle than the OC. I think I prefer it Now this is a flavour and stone mix that's giving a lot from each puff. If I won the lottery, this is how I'd roll. It's pressing a lot of my orange buttons all at once. I might have peaked too early and I'm glad I've nothing else to achieve today other than writing this post.
In pursuit of balance:
For the sake of balance, science and the community, I have now gone with a triple of the Tangie Berry, orange Creamsicle wax and orange hash. It's a really potent smoke but the orange of the Tangie Berry overrides the other flavours with its full Jaffa cake topping taste. Tastes aside this one is making my eyes feel seriously heavy and the screen I'm writing on look blurry. It hasn't helped my own balance but hopefully has added something to this topic.
Stoner perfection:
While these smokes were brief moments of wonderful stoner perfection, I don't think I quite found the flavour of the past. There have been hints of it with the Citrodelic Sunset but nostalgia is an elusive beast to bring back to life in full force. I'm in a new, orangey and happy place though. Let's face it, it'll actually be incomparable to the past bud as it's likely the bud I have is probably twice as strong in both potency and flavour - and it's weakest thing I'm adding to my smokes. The memory is over-kind to the past as it looks through orange-tinted glasses.
I'm enjoying each and every one of these smokes. Perhaps in years to come I'll be flavour chasing today's orange session. "Do you remember back in the day, the old LB orange...? "
I asked 3 questions earlier:
Will it be too much of a orange thing?
- No. You can't have too much orange much as I suspected. Orange is good. We like the orange.
Will it bring back a taste of the past?
- A few hints but not really - and that's okay.
Will I be too stoned to care?
- You got me there. Apparently so.
Flavour Chasing. The conclusion:
I'd definitely do this again. I don't usually put so much thought into my smoking and generally I don't keep a running diary as I go. So that was interesting for me to try to put into words how it was going. I'd happily have another orange day although I would likely do a blue or silver version next. Maybe a diesel day. I'm open to suggestions.
I hope you found this post interesting, and if not I hope it was entertaining at least. Thanks for reading, I'll see you in the next topic.
Have you been flavour chasing your own favourite before? Are you inspired to try? If you do I'd love to hear about it.
I'm a fan of orange strains. I particularly like the dank bitter citrus tang of the old orange bud you got in the 'dam coffee shops along with the delayed sledgehammer stone that followed twenty mins after you smoke it. It's not for everyone but it is for me. There's a few orange strains I've had in the past like Orangina (KIG) or Orange Glue that have had the special taste and feel of nostalgia but it's seemingly not the most popular flavour.
On LB - of course - there's a fair few orange options to choose from so I thought it'd be fun to have an orange day and report my experience back. So I've ordered a mix of orange hash, orange weed and orange extracts to chase the flavour memories of the past.
Questions:
Will it be too much of a orange thing?
Will it bring back a taste of the past?
Will I be too stoned to care?
Let's find out.

Special Orangey Thanks:
Firstly a special thanks to Shroom of the Loom for sending me a couple of testers with my last order. The mimosa punch was really bloody nice. It didn't tick the very specific old tasting void I was trying to fill but my word it was grown to perfection and got me super excited for my orange day. I know a lot of people prefer the mimosa flavour to other orange strains precisely because it's has less of a bitter dark orange tang. If that's you, you can check it out here: https://littlebiggy.net/link/XjhiLB

💚 Great review as always mate, love that old orange bud too. Dutch Passion still have it as a seed strain so after reading this I am now going to be ordering some for my next grow. Only thing missing from your orange day was some homemade bubble hash made in Fanta 🤣. Thinking of having a kush session and following the strain through its many variants but I think that would have to be a kush month.
Keep up the good work mate👍
Keep up the good work mate👍
Thanks man for your kind words. It'll be interesting how your orange bud turns out. I think Orangina is the most orangey orange bud I've had. If I had a grow I'd probably try a crop of that although I don't know how tricky it is to grow or what it yields.
I've got some bubble at the moment just to remind myself of how it's meant to be. Won't be experimenting for a while but I'm tempted to buy some shake and do a run to redeem myself.
A kush journey would be an interesting exploration although, as you say, it'd be an extensive mission.

Genuinely enjoyed reading that! You’ve inspired the PLF team to have a flavour day soon ourselves. Glad you enjoyed mate
Thanks PLF. I really appreciated your enthusiasm for my Orange Day. I had a great time trying to untangle the different flavour and stone profiles as I blitzed through. I hope some of the folks on lb relate to it and try it themselves. Hope you enjoy your flavour chasing as much as I did.
Lovely write up BigRoo mate an old orange fan here too.
Sounded like you had a good ole smoke and topped off with the terrys orange 🤤👌
Personally anything informative as well as entertaining gets my vote more flavour days and write ups my man 👍

Thanks man. I might do another one next month after payday on blues as this was pretty fun to go through.
Hey bro
Nice review, thanks so much for including my Tangie Berry! I think the flavour you after might be in the Tangerine Dream the latest strain I got. It's more on the sweet side

Thanks man. The Tangie is one of the strongest smelling bits I've ever had. I considered the tangerine dream but went with the Citrodelic as I'd had it before and knew that a hint of that flavour was in there rather than gambling on two unknowns. The strongest of that orange flavour I've had was the Orangina. I'll be back to try your other bits in the future though mate.

Rolling tray bubble hash - can I remove tobacco and make hash?

Rolling tray bubble hash - can I remove tobacco and make hash?
The problem:
Every time I roll on my tray then close my tin up a tiny bit of the leftover weed and tobacco ends up in the box. This really accumulates over time but is a dried mess of dusty tobacco & kief-ish stuff. Usually it reaches a point where I chuck it out. Sometimes I add it to a smoke. It's not pleasant although it's usually strong.
The theory:
So this time I've decided to apply science to it. Look away actual scientists.
I tested dry tobacco in water. It dissolves / floats. So I figured if I freeze my tray of leftovers, mix them with ice and water, hit it with a blender, filter all the big bits out then leave it to settle in a cold bottle with ice and occasional agitation, that the only stuff capable of sinking will be broken bits of trichome. Everything else would float or dissolve.
Solution in action:
It's been half an hour and it's working. It creates a really truly horrible smush of brown plant material to chuck out from the first filtering but I've got hash settling at the bottom of a bottle filled with what is -probably- toxic brown water.
* Don't try this at home folks *
If you do please acknowledge you're probably working with a poison. This is really a note to myself as I'm still mid-process while writing this. Perhaps one of the scientists I told to look away earlier but who kept on reading anyway could comment on how lethal the water would be. I still have to syphon it so I'll definitely need to take care with that.
I'm assuming the water uptake of the final hash will be so low that this isn't an issue. I'm going to give it one hour more then see what I've got. You don't have to wait an hour though. This is not a live show.
Generally the longer you leave it the more you get but I'm impatient and getting anything back will already be a better result than I expected when I started.
Hourish later:
We are ready to syphon this and filter the hash out. It looks like there is enough as a proof of concept. If you're reading this in my obituary instead of little biggy then you already know the outcome. Personally I'm feeling how I imagine Dr Frankenstein felt when his monster plans began to pan out. We are one spark away from perfection here. I'll be back. Hopefully. It went well for the Dr - right?
Syphoning:
Honestly, this is generally unpleasant when doing this even with fresh frozen plants but this was new level unpleasant. Really like kissing an ashtray. If you're thinking of quitting smoking tobacco, making some of this would be a good start. Tobacco - it's repulsive stuff. Anyway, off for a smoke then I'll be back.
Filtering:
Final filter done and I have a small amount of hash of an unknown grade. Those doubting this at the beginning, you may eat your hats now. This actually includes me. I hadn't thought this through. Still my hat will not taste as bad as syphoning tobacco water. Mmmmm.... Chewy cotton & cardboard.....
The hash needs to be dried. A good hash would be well dried and cured for a length of time. That's clearly not going to happen here. As soon as it's smokable I'll smoke some to see what it's made from.
I started with 6.2g of a skanky dried mixture of old weed bits and tobacco and I've got 0.6g of hash back. What are you betting on? Good hash? Bad hash? Poison hash? Not poison but tastes like poison hash? I'm actually betting on smokable hash at this point. I don't want to have to eat two hats.
The final product:
This is it. This is happening. The cumulation of a stupid idea I had late at night when I was a wee bit stoned is at its moment of completion. I'm going in.
I've speed dried this so I might update this post once I've tried the bit ill leave to cure.
It definitely tastes horribly tobaccoey. First taste is not a positive. Nor the second. This is a bad hash based on flavour. Really bad. The smell of it burning does smell like hash. The smoke's quite thick and it leaves white ash behind. It's also got some stone. Probably around the strength of a $30 3.5g hash on lb. Except this tastes more like an ashtray. It's really bad. However bad you're thinking - it's actually worse than that. I'm currently filled with regret for starting this at all.
Any hash flavouring, and I doubt there is any, has been washed away with tobacco flavour. And not a nice tobacco flavour like when a smoker sparks up a cigarette straight off a long haul flight and has that first puff. This is a dirty ashtray taste. It's really bad. It tastes like I'm the second or third person to have smoked it. I roll with some tobacco; I enjoy tobacco - in moderation, but this is really f**kin' awful. You could lick a pub ashtray clean from the Red Lion in the 1980s and still not taste more of a used tobacco taste. You could have a more pleasurable smoke by rolling up some fallen autumn leaves into a bus ticket.
My thinking was that the hash itself is waterproof so once it's back out the water any nasty taste would go with the water. This is so far from true. Even my dinner tastes bad now. I smoked this ages ago. All I can taste is ashtrays. I keep thinking the taste has gone while I'm eating but soon as I stop it's back like I'm still smoking it. It is genuinely ruining my evening.
Conclusion:
I was really fully ready for a smug ending to this post. I guess, arguably the science worked. I did create a hash from waste tobacco and weed. And it will get you stoned if you can bear smoking it. Earlier I wrote I'll try it once it's cured but honestly I don't think I will. It's genuinely that bad and I hadn't lived with it long enough when I made that declaration. I'm not standing by it. I wish the taste of good hash lingered like this. I guess the only positive I can draw from this experience is a greater understanding of how much flavour a bubble hash must accumulate during processing.
So there you have it. In answer to my initial question - yes, you can make bubble from a tobacco / weed mix but still don't. I'd rather eat two, three or more hats than have to smoke any more of this crap. If this is how smoking tasted, none of us would smoke.
I hope some of you found this informative, if not I hope it was entertaining at least. I'll see you in the next topic. I'm off for some extreme teeth cleaning and then smoking whatever the strongest tasting thing there is in my box in the desperate hope I may taste something else other than ashtrays. Thanks for reading.

Absolutely brilliant article mate. Just the sort of silly shit I'd do. Difference is I'd be bigging up my self as a chemistry genius. "I made hash, yeah it tastes like a woodbine smoker finger rapped my mouth, but I made hash!".
Nice one G
Nice one G
I was fully ready to do that right up until the end when I smoked it and realised that my hash genius status was firmly on hold. While good hash requires some technique, a basic hash as described above - but starting with something better - would be simple enough for most people end up with some smokable hash. Can get shake on here. I don't think it'd add up money wise but for 60 odd bucks you could get some and make your own. I'd be happy to explain it out to you although there's a lot of people on lb know a lot more than me.
😂 what a v entertaining lunchtime read, thank you for sharing! My bet was v undecided, I knew getting some sticky buildup would make some hash but was curious how much the tobacco dust might have fouled any goodness stuck to your tray, alas my suspicion was right on that one unfortunately - would be cool if there was good way of separating the two but no such luck there. Wonder if any scientifically minded people might know if it’s possible.
Cool experiment though, maybe save the result for an apocalypse/desperate drought times 😅

I already binned it. However desperate you were you'd honestly still not want to smoke it. It's without doubt the worst piece of hash ever made. I was still tasting it 6 hours afterwards. A static sift technique might work for this though I guess. However I'll leave that to someone else to experiment with. Not least as I've no idea how it works.
🤣Absolutely cracking mate, like reading a story when you know what is going to happen, I wasn't sure how much you would try or how bad it would taste but I knew it was gonna end badly🤣.
I recommend buying a keif box to grind all your weed into, they don't block up like the little grinder screens and you don't even notice how much you are collecting until you open the bottom, and you know it is all good to smoke.👍
As a side note when syphoning just submerge more of the hose then put your finger over the end to keep it full and then release it into a bucket much less flavourful.

I'm not exaggerating - it genuinely was the worst tasting thing I've ever smoked. That taste stayed with me for at least the next 6 hours. It wouldn't go. I chucked the hash in the bin. When I started I thought there was no hope. As I progressed it started to look like it'd work and this would be my key contribution to the world of cannabis smoking. I guess you should never count your chickens until they hatch. There are some positives (I always look for these). 1. I now know not to ever try this. 2. There's more interplay with the flavour as bubble is created than I realised.
My syphon hose was a bit short as I had it tied up and the bottle tied up to make sure I didn't knock it over. I've done that before with bubble and it makes a sticky mess. This would have been far worse - although it'd have stopped me from having to smoke it.
I'll look into the kief box. That definitely sounds better than this was. I might buy some shake just so I can redeem myself by making a decent smokable grade.

I didn't actually enjoy tobacco for a couple of days afterwards. Other than actually feeding my small addiction I vaped a bit & made edibles. Honestly, however bad you're imagining it, it was worse than that. For over six hours it was all I could taste. I'm glad I tested the theory but I'll need to keep trying if I'm to contribute something useful to the world of hash making.
I think this is only bad because of the tobacco in it.
I used to have the same 'left overs' in my rolling box that over long time becomes a very dry mix of weed and tobacco which used to be a great back up when I found myself ran out of weed.
Since then I quit tobacco so now only weed is collecting but still isn't nearly enough to create extracts. I used to press rosing from ounces of prime buds and only had less than 10% return. Tried bubble hash from prime buds aswell but even less return.
The most yielding methos is to use alcohol to extract the thc but not sure about the tobacco being a good idea

Yeah, had I of run this same process with just leftover weed it'd likely have made some form of smokable hash of unknown flavour and potency.The hash I made, had you of removed the tobacco flavour, was completely viable to smoke and get stoned. It's not an experiment I'll try again though.
I've not done an alcohol or butane wash before. The quick alcohol method is probably what I'd start on but it won't be on tray leftovers. I might have the (unofficial) world record for the worst hash ever made. It's not how I wanted to be remembered.

I also think after all the materials I have 'wasted' making diy concentrates at home it doesn't really worth the trade other than the cool home science experiment lol.
Basically trading 6g smoke to 0.6g smoke.

My best results have been from fresh frozen materials. Still small returns for a hefty effort but the best tasting hash I've had was one I made from lemon haze - a weed I don't even particularly like. It was only after joining LB that I've had hash stronger than the ones I've made. But you're right - it's more for the fun of kitchen science than any practical reason.
Hypothesis, Method, Experimentation, Analysis, Conclusion. Sounds pretty scientifically sound to me mate.
100% wouldn't repeat or bother to tweak this experiment (all my bits go from magazine to ash tray every time), but did chuckle a couple of times. Hope you've brushed your teeth a lot, and possibly your tongue too.

I tasted that crap for over 6 hours. Brushing, eating, smoking - all made no difference. I'm not going to be repeating it, I'm not exaggerating for artistic effect how bad it was. I made what must be the worst piece of hash ever produced. There will be people synthesising hash who are making a better tasting product than I did. The bit I left to dry and cure, I put in the bin. I guess no experiment ever truly fails if you learn something. And I did learn something. Not to bloody try it again. To be fair I did also learn that bubble picks up some flavour from processing and it's the first time I've made bubble from over dried materials so I've a better feel for working with dry stuff instead of fresh frozen.
I’m afraid I predicted the inevitable conclusion by just the first photo 😂 This was a terrible idea from start to finish! However your write up was fantastic and I speak on behalf of all, we are grateful for your efforts and contribution to the world of hash!
Im curious whether soaking the mixture in some other strong flavoured liquid might dampen the taste of ash tray, maybe whisky? Probably not 😂
Next experiment, old shotty water hash?

When I started I thought it was a waste of time but I thought I'd take diary notes in case I hit on something useful. Mid way through I was fully convinced I'd get some smokable hash. And that confidence stayed with me right up until I smoked it. Then it fell apart really fast.
The experiment is not worth continuing. The taste from smoking one of these stayed with me for 6 hours. I don't think it'd matter what you added. However it's interesting how much flavour the hash picked up from the processing. I'd always thought you separate the hash and it just tastes of what it tastes of. But there's more at play in the process I think. It must absorb flavour from the liquid - which is usually tasty weed remnants.
I'd guess this could work using a dry static sift technique.
I'm currently thinking of buying some shake & running same process to redeem myself. It's the first hash I've made in over a year and it was not just awful but probably the worst hash ever made.

Best Orange bits for an all out Orange Session?

Best Orange bits for an all out Orange Session?
I'm thinking of going all in on an orange session after payday. I've long since been a fan of orange strains. Seemingly not for everyone but for me both the taste and effect of a decent bit of orange is hard to beat. The dank deep citrus musk taste of a nice orange bud followed by the delivery of a powerful sedative hit delayed by just enough time to lull you into a false sense of security before it leaps onto you from behind is my favourite kind of smoking experience.
As it's possible to get orange everything here, it feels a good idea to combine it all into a super orange session and see how that goes.
I read someone else's post a while back which I'd link if I could find it. They had an orange evening and I always did like the sound of it.
Can you have too much orange in one session?
Because the idea of rolling orange buds with orange hash on top of orange extracts seems the most marvelous idea ever to me.
A mixture of some of these I guess will be the way forward. What would you choose?

Thanks for reading. I'm happy to hear your thoughts about it.
Final note: If I buy an orange hat for this it is going to be overdoing it - isn't it?

The Orange Creamsickle from PinkLeaf Pharmacy is superb. I found their White Nectarine extract to taste quite orangey too :)
Nice man! We’ll throw in some White Nectarine as well for you, to pay homage to your Orange night - very jealous!
Well that'd be awesome thanks. It is a worthy cause. I'll write up a topic as I plough through orange day to record my experience. I'm curious how it'll go. I put my order through with low gas fees so payment will take a while. My fee levels were higher than I expected so I had to set it low. Hopefully it'll have gone through soon. Thanks PLF.
No worries mate! We’re away until tomorrow anyway so no rush on payment. Look forward to seeing your topic!
Hopefully it'll have chugged through the system by then. I'm looking forward to this. Thanks.
Will definitely be visiting after payday. I've been on cheap bits for a while, which to be fair, on lb, are really pretty decent. But am excited to have a blowout.
Defo recommended the spacemens Citrodelic Sunshine one of the nicest I've tried for orange flavour.
Completely agree - I've had that one before. I was surprised at how orangey it was. Keep It Green was the king of orange strains but seems to be taking a break. I'll likely order the Citrodelic again.
Ooh our Tropicana Cherry may be right up your street.
Got a 3.5 left.
You need to get the orange hat and a carton of Tropicana orange with bits

I don't get paid til end of the month so I assume someone else will have had it by then. I am glad someone is down with the orange hat though. If you're going to do something you may as well overdo it.
I found the original post. Turns out they got the idea from someone else too. Like Picasso said, good artists copy while great artists steal. Anyway, is linked if anyone wants to read it.

60 bucks for 7g - Cheap UK Weed List - Less than $60 qtr delivered to your door.
Okay LB folk, this is a list of quarters (7g for the metric heads) of bud, available on littlebiggy, delivered for under $60 including postage. That's my criteria here to filter down to the bits that'll save you - and me - some pennies.
There are a couple of vendors I expected to include that haven't got products listed currently. Maybe if people like this post I'll do it again in the future.
I've not listed shake / bars / hash nor any Thai weed. Only buds. All prices are for a quarter (7g for cool kids) listed with LB rating & postage if there's a charge. Beware some of the super high ratings as there will be just one review there. So, if you intend to purchase, check things out yourself on the listing, particularly from vendors I've stated I've not used and you don't know yourself. Be smart people.

Conclusion
So that's my rundown of the sub $60 market on LB. Correct as of May 2024. Yes there are more exotic bits over this price but this seemed a fair bar to set. Please feel free to comment if you believe I set it too low. I know I've missed out some great bits just above this price. Also let me know if I've missed any bits off under $60 in the comments. Feel free to share any other bargains or useful comments below to save people money here. No hatred please.
I hope some of you have found this useful for picking out a budget bit of UK bud to see you through to your next pay day.
Thanks for reading. See you next time.

Your Natural Medicine (YNM)
I've ordered from this vendor before.
Blue Cough, 9.6/10 $42 + $6.55
https://littlebiggy.net/link/XNcUFN
I've had this bud. It is cheap so I'll just say it wasn't for me and leave it at that.
----
All4twenty (A4T)
I've not used this vendor.
Organic Outdoor, 8.8/10 - $55 + $5
https://littlebiggy.net/link/m2aIQ5
Outdoor buds can be an interesting smoke as the sun seems to bring something else out of the plant. I might have a further search on sun grown some time.
----
Now these last two are marginally over $60 and are only included as I've had them both and are both decent for the price in their own way. See notes.
----
Radar Breeder (RB)
I've ordered here a few times. Great vendor & high quality products.
Kerosine Krash, 9.7/10 - $55 + $6.50
https://littlebiggy.net/link/M0IgmV
I had this a while back. Looked scrappy and disappointing but actually was gassy & strong.
----
That Guy for Bud (TGFB)
I've never ordered from this vendor but I was sent the haze as a freebie.
Tropical Haze, 10/10 - $61.50
https://littlebiggy.net/link/jGCWVP
I wrote a full review about this one here: https://littlebiggy.net/link/mdbEKL
if you'd like to read it. Ultimately whether you like it or will be down to whether you love a haze or not.

Conclusion
So that's my rundown of the sub $60 market on LB. Correct as of May 2024. Yes there are more exotic bits over this price but this seemed a fair bar to set. Please feel free to comment if you believe I set it too low. I know I've missed out some great bits just above this price. Also let me know if I've missed any bits off under $60 in the comments. Feel free to share any other bargains or useful comments below to save people money here. No hatred please.
I hope some of you have found this useful for picking out a budget bit of UK bud to see you through to your next pay day.
Thanks for reading. See you next time.
Are they ones I've used or not used? I wrote in the early paragraph for people to check the vendors out themselves, although the escrow systems does offer some protection. I just went through the wall looking for cheapies and thought it might be worthwhile sharing it.
Gramazon are supposedly over weighing all orders by 20% and with their oz's at $190 it's quite the deal. Decent looking strains, haven't personally tried them yet though.
I've not tried them. Only found them as I was checking out all the cheap options this month hence why I decided to post my list. It looks like they've got some bargain bits I must admit. I went with LV as I'd ordered there before & is super cheap to match my current budget.
Big love for considering us! I know it’s haze but it’s done beautifully so thank you for recognising that
It is full of haziness for sure. However you grow brings out the flavours so I'm looking forward to your orange. If you grow an orange derived strain to this same standard it'll be amazing.

Shaky hash making
I've made bubble hash several times in the past, usually from (other people's) trim or failed crops and just using stuff I have at home or could buy for pennies online. Fresh frozen has given me my best results - and some of them have been startlingly good.
As there's all sorts of shake & trim on lb I've been thinking about doing a run of hash.
Does anyone do this?
Do you think I'll get good value or that I'd just be better off buying hash?
Any thoughts appreciated. Thanks for reading.

I make oil with some and decarb the rest mix together for something that you can smoke or swallow and either way it puts you on your arse for a good while. Always made bho in the past but just upgraded my equipment and used ethanol for the first time for the oil extraction 14g of a skuda shake bar I won. Going to decarb the other 16g this weekend and I expect/hope to end up with about 12-14g of squidgy decarb hash. If you use bubble bags to get the grade A hash, I hope you then decarb the shake and at least make some edibles with it or press it or extract oil from it. If you bin it😱 I have just increased your yield massively you are welcome 😉
I've never used bubble bags. Only filters of varying size plus gravity. I end up left with soggy leftover plant materials and bubble hash(s). Soggy bubble hash to be fair so it needs drying. I've always put the plant materials in the compost. I usually do a lower grade blender hash as a second wash though so not sure I'm missing much. Or am I?
If you haven't done any chemical extraction on it then it will still be worth decarbing just throw it in a brownie mix once its done and you can decide if it is worth doing it or not, I don't think you will be disappointed if it was going on the compost anyway.👍
I'll give that a bash next time mate. It was only recently I made some edibles from a load of vaped weed and was rather surprised to discover it blew my head off.
Yeah ,same concept mate. I used to decarb on a hotplate turned low (or on and off for a few seconds) and you have to keep it moving so it doesn't burn but the vapour is filling the room. Can end up in a real mess if your ventilation is limited or if you decide to turn it off.
I've got gas burners so it'd go every shade of wrong. My oven is pretty reliable though so guess I'd go for that.
You could decarb on gas in a heavy pan if you had no other option but probably safer in the oven. I got banned from hash making in the house after stinking the kitchen out so I kitted my lab(shed) out with a 9litre mini oven for £30 and it does the job perfectly 👌
Hi guys i use the french method for decarbing in water and in air tight bags, i find it maintains most if not all the smell, i put about 1oz per bag and vacuum sealed, then boil at 93c for 2 hours, seem to me to get the highest conversion rate. 10lt saucepan half full of water and a heavy weight to hold the bags down, put a silicone mat in the bottom to stop bags sticking to the pan, you can do this on gas or electy and its a very forgiving method.

Also put a pin hole in the corner of the bag it saves a lot of hassle and no water gets in.
After it's taken out of the bags it stinks omg 😂😂 especially if there's a little moisture in the weed, good thing is it only stinks over night then it starts smelling nice again thought i let you know 💖

Ahhh the pin hole is what I was missing. Gave it a try with half ounce that I had already part decarbed in the oven but it took some effort to keep underwater. I only managed to get about 2ml of rso from my extraction on the other half so couldn't get the squidgy consistency I wanted but I still ended up with around 16g of crumbly hash, pressed up in an old clamp I always use, this should tide me over for a while😶🌫️
Done it myself with a box of stardawg dust, ended up getting a 10% return on it so 100G bar out of 1kg.. The box cost me 400 so it probably wasnt worth it.
Good quality with fine micronbags

4 bucks a g isn't that bad a result if it came out a high quality. But probably a lot of faff for something you could have bought. That's why I'm wondering if it makes sense or not.
It sits around there in price £5 g but it’s just a 2-3month process if you wanna do it right, but the results are worth it imo out of all the sick hash I have atm im still smoking the homemade stardawg instead just so clean and pleasant to smoke 🤤
the hash was high quality but i can pick up BARZ LA for that price so wasnt worth it.
It worked out at 40p per gram on the trim, if u cant get it cheaper than that i wouldnt bother tbh

I saw a former vendor here, selling that hash on a different platform for £40 on the eighth.
Thought that was either a fraud or the price had been driven down all of a sudden since it appeared here for silly money. This makes sense what you are saying.

LB takes a 16% cut from vendors, with BTC fees vendors probably lose 20%-25% of their payout depending on time, the crypto is held in escrow for 21 days aswell so by that time btc could of dropped and you're actually losing money..
Thats why everything has to be marked up here

Hey, I'm not taking a cheap shot, and I understand why the escrow fees cause a bigger markup. Vendors have a right to charge what they like and biggas have a right not to buy it. Simple.
But £400 is £100 for 25g. The 16% plus profit doesn't fully account for the crazy prices on the gram just a couple months back.
I'm not moaning because I have other platforms and means to source stuff too.

I wasn't trying to come across as negative or anything bro, no cheap shots here no worries :). Im pretty sure ik the vendor your talking about "P"? He was selling the green ocaso hash which is the cheapest one, and the one i can usually pick up for that price.. (still fire)
The purple/red ones are abit more expensive.

Yeah; no drama man 🙂 I just didn't wanna come across like I was bitching more than anything.
That's exactly the vendor 🤣 and I'm not tempted in the slightest. But I couldn't work out how he could be selling it so cheap.

Yea I think it's odin who makes his own and he's given to a few biggas,I believe it's potent.
Thanks. I might well have a bash and document it for community interest. Either I'll do well and people will be happy to copy me or I'll get loads of advice as to how to improve - I guess.
You get around 10% or less yield depending how much crystal covers your starting material and how fine your filtering. So you need dirt cheap/free raw material to make it worth when there's hash out there for 100 quid an ounce

Happy Star Wars Day
Popped to the shop just now. Fella there said he's sold a whole box of ocb rolling papers already today and asked what's going on. Star Wars day innit - we're all going to space man.
Mentioned it to someone in work earlier and they said, 'only heard about it on the radio on the way in'. Yeah, it's only been a thing for decades now.
I feel sorry for them missing the most joyous & important celebration of the year. It's the closest thing I have to a religion.
Brown. He had to get a new box from store room so asked me why. Browns my preference on ocb. Seems rizla / rolling paper quality has gone down over the years.
Yeah, rizla has always been tobacco and bud papers but raw, ocb and elements more just bud papers. But it's nice to know retailers out there doing a range of papers as opposed to just generic type rolling papers.
Also, think more vendors on here should have a little headshop here selling paraphernalia.
Also, think more vendors on here should have a little headshop here selling paraphernalia.
Tesco do ocb papers now. The whole toker industry has grown year on year so I guess it makes sense to the giant retailers now to supply us our bits. I wonder how much trade a headshop would do on LB.
I don't think a headshop in itself on here would have legs as you already have good options on the net but in addition too their menu add paraphernalia, bongs, grinders, foreign skins etc. When placing an order it's more convenient and we're more inclined to try some new papers. Just a thought for vendors to increase additional sales whilst they have our attention and coins!

Let's talk about hash
For me payday looms and as it's been a wee bit bleak at BigRoo Cottage of late I'll likely treat myself to some of the hash here amongst some other bits and bobs. Since joining LB I've approached it with all the restraint of a child in a sweetshop. "I want one of them & one of them & ooh - two of those & one of them..."
I'm super intrigued by the Barz LA products. I'm likely to try a green level & red level. But it got me thinking - what's the best bang for your buck hashes on LB. The ones that deliver delicious flavours & potency rather than make you feel you've just picked it up off a shifty fella in a smoky pub backroom of the 1980s.
I've made bubble before - fresh frozen. This seemed to me to produce my best results. Now I see there's a myriad of processes like static, triple filtered, fresh frozen, dry sifted, hash eggs, and many more.
Basically, if you had to bet money on a hash blowing my mind while not blowing my wallet what'd you go for? Is there a hash method that you prefer? (I know some people say fresh frozen products taste green). Please jump on the hash train and share your thoughts with me. Thanks LB people.

I just did. Looks like you have some lovely bits at a decent price. I'll definitely add you to my list to visit after checking the Barz stuff. Thanks for commenting.
If you are looking for the best experience with hash, I would say whole plant fresh frozen ice water hash pressed into rosin, you keep the highest amount of terps possible with a high thc percentage and a very low almost zero amount of plant matter.
Starting material is what matters most, the Barz LA purple is probably the best but it's also the most expensive I think

From what I can tell Barz has 3 levels. Green, red then purple. Going up in grades in that order. They seem to do dry sift & fresh frozen varieties across that range. The purple is probably above what I'd pay for a gram of anything but I might just once for curiosities sake. I'm not experienced with Rosin but it's on my list. I ordered some previously but was out of stock.
I’m on the Purple GMO right now… it’s very special indeed but it needs to be dabbed in the right kit…fabulous and because you use so little not a bad deal at all..🤩✈️
It looks exquisite but with a connoisseur price to match. I'm not a dabber and mostly use extracts to supercharge spliffs. I'm hoping the price will drop and other people will replicate the process.
That'll be my starting point. It actually looks decent price point too for what it is. I'm looking at the Ace Cup atomisers now. I've got a feeling my vape has an atomiser function that I've ignored so might explore that if I can find the instructions.
I've googled it. I may have overstated what it does but it does have a oil / wax cup. My vape is an Xmax V3 pro. It works great for vaping when I do that but is a wee bit small. Would this work with extracts / full melts do you know?
In theory you can by using the little concentrate bucket but most reviews say it’s poor as there is not enough heat produced. Some people try wrapping in cotton bacon instead which conducts heat well but might put your oven at risk. Tbh I’ve never found a dry herb vape that does sticky extracts well despite the claims. The Mighty is good with soft hash but I don’t use it for wax, rosin etc…
Ah. Will strike that idea off. It's not why I bought the vape so no loss but it'd have been handy to discover I already had the thing I needed.
You could try it but with quality extracts being so expensive it’s a false economy for a sub par hit imo…
For a budget dedicated pocket atomiser get the A10 Coil King👍

The thing about atomisers is that they heat as hot as Hades and drawing straight into your lungs requires either ‘experience’ or a Teflon coating to avoid The Cough. The beauty of the AceCup is that the vapour is initially pumped into a glass and that process alone cools it significantly for your delectation …🤤
Some Extraction Kids would consider that process ‘girlie’ 😉

I'm lucky that I gave up caring what people think of me years ago so long as I'm happy! I'll see if I can get an Ace Cup setup at some point. If it's girlie not to turn your lungs inside out then please call me Susan.
The cost of the purple now is less than what the red cost me per g when it was first listed. Oh, and we were told it would have to be $100/g more to get the purple to LB. 🧐
A few weeks back I saw some Piatella hash on some vendors page.
This is meant to be the mother of all hash, if for real.
It is 6 star bubble hash that is cold cured for around 4 weeks.
There's a reason people pay £80 a gram in Spainish clubs for this lol.
French cannoli always swore that the ice wash beat static, ff etc.
Having got a good amount of FF from a rl plug recently, I cannot tell any difference between this and the static I have tried aside from the look of it.
I have, however tried Nero's hashes via the reliable vendor who has already commented.
I have to say, they are several notches up from the other hash on sale at that price on this site.

Thanks - I was.just checking their stuff out. Looks great at the price point. It amazes me how well thought through the various methods of producing it have become so I wondered if there was one method to rule them all.
If you're going Barz LA specifically then from the green range the Ocaso is some of the best hash that a hash smoker from back in the day would recognise as hash (and at $30/g it's well worth it. Some of the $45+/g hashes aren't as much of a re-buy for me as this would be, even if they were cheaper), but I think the Cherry Trifle is even better, marginally. Lovely head stones from them, and they got me very stoned with my quite high tolerance. I'm yet to try the Currency, but it's in my cart.
Barz LA red (I've only had the Banana OG) is so much a step up, but you'll really be wasting it in a joint, and I'm a combustor first and foremost. It'll completely obliterate you, and you won't doubt where the extra money you spend went, but you'll think it wasn't worth buying it again. If you dabbed it, you may think differently. If you really, really must, then mix some up with ground bud like you would butter and flour to make pastry. You want it ideally not soggy and well mixed in both cases.
Kid in a sweet shop, yeah? Well, me too. I haven't got over that, and it's been just over a year now.
Purple: so, piatella was mentioned. I've had that. It was superb. It was $150/g. It was, at the price, something I'm glad to say I tried, but I definitely couldn't order regularly. The purple GMO Barz LA is as close to that as I've ever had in every way, and it's nearly half the price.
I 100% appreciate that cost and value concepts are very different for every individual, but that purple at $80/g is some of the best Quality Price Ratio I've ever encountered. Get yourself an Ace Cup, which is Polly's preferred way to fly. Looks like it wouldn't make you look like a crack head despite smoking trates.

Thanks man, this is a great response. I've been wondering which versions to gun for so I value your opinion. I've only vaguely come across dabbing & until I joined lb I'd not have had regular access to dabable product so it made little sense to get my full attention. I've no idea what an ace cup is nor how to use one. I'm interested though.
Google will lead you in the right direction. My main thing with consuming concentrates is not burning myself and not knocking things over, while also getting as obliterated as possible. Fine line, isn't it?
He says at 00:15 on 29/04/24, thinking of smoking more, and maybe another glass of wine? Some late night M&S sausage rolls (the little ones from the Collection range, which I still reckon are the best QPR M&S sausage roll)...? Almost a week off work now, so time is basically irrelevant.

Ahoy Big Roo! I too have been on a hash quest recently, it's a glourious quest to be on! I thoroughly recommend....
Dr Green Thumb: Papaya Punch 2X filtered, Runtz, AppleRuntz 90u, Hashtag hsh farms.
The Good Stuff: Lemon Cookie DryTech
Babbstar1: Blue Cookies Filtered
Sensi Mart : All of the Barz hashes
I find all of these hashes fantastic and the shops friendly and professional. I also hear great things about RealD, Eddys hash Bar and The Hash Collective23. Quest on brother!!

Thanks man. I'm looking forward to exploring. I appreciate your list here and I will have a look at them all. I've not ordered from any of those vendors yet. I'm definitely going to start with the barz as I'm so fascinated with it. I'm guessing it'll be a hard act to follow.
I gotta say bang for buck I'd go for the jungle boys cold cured from eddy's $45/g and absolute 🔥 but if you buy on Wednesday or Sunday he has a discounted selection. Enjoy, whatever you go for😶🌫️
I've not ordered from Eddys yet but they crop up all the time. As you mention the deal days would be a good time to jump in. Some of the hashes there ook amazing. Jungle boys make exceptional product so would not be surprised to find the hash glorious too.
If your talking best bang for buck then your lucky as a new vendor I’ve put up a promotional offer
But it’s one per customer at 5$ per gram
However our normal prices is still amazing and the product you will get is soft like sand
A true nostalgia product
Hemp Lady Mary
Hope to get some few sales in and test the waters on this lovely site

Sweating & waiting Biggie
Just thought I'd give a shout out to some of the great services I've used here since I imagine everyone is sweating about gas fees and is waiting to pull the trigger on their orders / business / existence.
I joined LB quite recently so I'm still getting comfortable with everything. I hope it's okay to post this here. I've been amazed by some of the products I've bought and some of the service I've received.
First mention, The Green Team. TGT. What a great service. They reward loyalty, are bang on comms, and generally a pleasure to deal with. They've sent me a couple of freebies now.
Next, Keep it Green. KIG. What a nice chap and fellow orange enthusiast. Sent me a sampler with my order following a conversation about orange flavours. Hard to fault that. Brilliant.
Shroom of the loom. SOTL. These are new to me but I'm having a sample sent out, mostly out of sympathy, I guess, as I do so poorly with competitions. I'll be back to order there.
The spacemen, TSM, are worth a mention. Some super cheap bits that are great. I had a citronella that was a lovely orange flavour. Green Cat, GC, are probably also worth mentioning as a vendor that have had some great value (and generously weighed) bits.
So far the two nicest extracts I've had have both been from Gassed. G. (Do they still get an initial?)
The great vape company, TGVC, were exceedingly patient with my various issues with my new vape (not their fault) so are worth noting great customer service.
The super cheap bits I've had that were worth smoking were from the pontiff of piff POPE and from Radar Breeder. RB.
After pay day (desperately waiting) I'm looking forward to trying some of the Barz hash. I'm fascinated by how well it looks like they've made it. I've not ordered from Eddy's Hash bar, EHB yet either which I should probably correct. Will likely also aim for a mix of bargain buds & mids, some extracts, and some more distillate to make my own edibles - assuming of course it's viable to move coin by then.
So if you're still reading this - well done - and if you've got any great vendors to share let me know. I suspect orders are down and they would probably like to hear that what they do is appreciated by all us Biggie Folk. BF.

Sounds like you went mad like a kid in a sweet shop with all of those excellent choices here, as I did too.
You are in for a treat with the Barz LA stuff. The Green is some of the best 'normal' hash I've ever smoked. The Red is crazy, and barely recognisable as hash. The Purple is a whole different level. I'm being strong-armed to buy an Ace Cup to smoke it in, and I'll probably cave in soon...

“strong armed” lol…. the only question you haven’t asked me is “does the colour match my outfit?” 😵💫
I did approach LB with all the restraint of a child in a sweet shop yes. I used to be able to pick decent bits up but for last few months it'd been lemon / dawg / ammie with the odd bonus of Skywalker. So suddenly being able to get everything was pretty overwhelming. A lot of hard choices were made on selections man as I wanted everything.
I've made bubble before. In fact the best bubble I've had, I made. I'd not have to go too far on here for that not to be true anymore. But the barz stuff looks a different level. They must have been putting thought and care into that before a plant even went up. It must be such a considered process it's artisan.
I'll likely try the green first and work my way up. It'll take my extract money to buy it so hope it's good. I would expect they've set a benchmark for other brands now. Hopefully we'll see more super high grade hash coming through.

Hopefully it'll not sell out before end of the month. Even though I was curious about some of the exotic hashes they weren't high on my list til Barz. Am completely fascinated by the amount of effort someone has gone to to create that. Lotta love in that there hash.
I can honestly recommend EHB some of the craziest bits of hash on here tbf. Pablos revenge was a personal favourite for me 🔥 he lists buds now too, his shake is top notch and his edibles are my go to without fail on every order I place. Great stealth too. If you're looking for edibles then I recommend MJ Concentrates some of the best tasting edibles on here, he's a true canna chef! Your Natural Medicine come highly recommended by me too!
Just to add a counterpoint, not start an argument (different people have different experiences), but Eddy's Hash Bar has been my only disappointment on here.
Spent just shy of £360 with them in the run-up to Xmas and got treated like a schmuck for my troubles.
It was a custom order of several items and only once I'd paid, did they tell me one of the items was out of stock...
So they priced-up a custom order, invoiced me, received payment AND THEN told me they didn't have what I ordered.
Oh and the cherry on the top of my £360 cake, was that when I received my order, there had been ANOTHER substitution...
Oh and the sprinkling of icing sugar on the top of the cherry on the top of my £360 cake, was that I had ordered the Xmas box, with all the bits & bobs.
Instead of which I got a bubblewrap envelope (with vac-pac inside) containing a lighter and a crumpled packet of papers.
But like I say, different people have different experiences: I guess there's just something that screams "mug" about me...

I understand the logistics of vending on LB is a bit of a nightmare due to stock control. However communication from vendor is key to manage customers expectations in that instance. I'll take what you say on board man.
Agreed! Keeping tabs on what you do/don't have, what's been sent etc etc, is not straightforward, especially if you're one of the more popular vendors.
And if I'd ordered "off the shelf" I'd have no complaints (in that regard at least).
But if you check their page, I'm certainly in the minority: lots of happy customers and EHB is consistently recommended on here.
I guess I just got unlucky and caught them at a bad time...

On an e-commerce site the sale also manages stock levels. So you can't easily sell something you don't have. Even those fall over sometimes. On a site like this it must be wild trying to keep organised. I'm not excusing the vendor - you had the experience you had. I'd have the hump too. Good communication could have solved that ahead of you getting the package and being disappointed. At the moment I'm mad keen on trying the barz hash which EHB doesn't sell anyway I don't think. I expect I'd try them at some point though as there's lots of interesting bits there I don't see elsewhere.
If you're looking at Barz LA, I guess that's RealD.
FWIW I just made my 3rd order from them today.

Sensi Mart have variants of it too. I've not ordered from them before. I have had hash from Real D which I didn't love but it was more a personal preference rather than there being anything wrong with it. I'd order from them again.
Thanks man, I'll definitely be onto EHB soon. I've almost ordered there a few times but something else tasty & exciting always seems to pop up. Next month I definitely want to get onto the barz. The Pablo you mention I've looked at several times so maybe they'd be a good start with Eddy too.
Hi pal, posts like this are great! We have some cheap samples and given how well you write reviews we’re happy to send you some bits too! Welcome to the community
I would love that man. I'm happy to do a write up for you with my thoughts. Your timing is fantastic as I can't shift any coin about at the min due to fees / general skintness and am running on fumes. I'd definitely welcome a review package to pick through. Will give it my fullest attention.

Where's the best orange bud?
I can remember from years ago in Dam, the nice orange bud, a Californian Orange Bud I believe, that had a potent after kick a while after consuming. Was a great one for spacing out for a while. What'd be a close match these days? What's got the heftiest after kick?
KiG is seemingly obsessed with orange bud and has Mimosa Evo and Orangina which i have here, so orangey, ill add a link 🍊❤️🔥
Just as BOW13 says and has. KIG. ( Keep it Green)The way to go with anything that has Orange 🍊 terps. . Look no Further. Top Vendor. Top Guy. 1 of the best on Here 👍😉
A little obsessed yes.
I went on an Orange hunt in Dam the other year, nothing come close this Orangina and the more Grapefruit(to me) Mimosa Evo. Both sweet and delicious and the way the Evo grinds is special

Thanks man. A few people suggested the same person now so that's definitely on my list as the first place to try.
That was such a fav of mine as well back in the days. One of the very first “skunk” from holland .. early 90’s bliss.
IMO the new fancy mimosa & Co don’t carry as much typical flavor as the original orange breed…

True its a different type of orange. But now it's a way more distinctive orange smell and taste. I do a cure with fan leaf,in massive tubs and the orange is so strong
I grew lots of Dutch passion Cali orange decades ago and Orange hill special last year. That's why I took a Punt on the Mimosa Evo

Thanks man. This is now on my list. I'd had a few samples through from elsewhere so that was going to be next but I think this leapfrogs it. I'd go for oringina I guess from the name. But which has the best orange zest plus following sedation in your opinion?
For me it's too tight to call
Orangina is a sweet orange and Evo more citrus dank orange but thats all my opinion.
Get one of each and compare, bit rude not too lol

I went for the Orangina. A lot of nostalgia riding on this man. I'm hoping to taste both the past & the future simultaneously. No small task there. I'll be back to try the Evo & I think I'll have a bash at the orange extract too as that looked pretty appealing. If I didn't already have bits on way I'd probably of had one of everything like a kid left alone in a sweet shop unsupervised. All-in-all a fine discovery to find your profile. Nice to meet you man. Looking forward to trying the orangina. I didn't know this thread would get so many comments to be honest but felt I should update an outcome.
I've seen a couple of people have done some of the older ones on here. I'm guessing the demand is always the new thing crossed with another new thing. I'd order a bag of the orange if it popped up though for nostalgia. Maybe it'd not seem so good now. Still, be curious to know.
Look for a strain called Orange Creamsicle was popular a few years ago with the Cali vendors. Very nice.

{bot's life}
will office jobs survive?
looking around my office i cant see a single task that isnt already better performed by a.i.
I put up marquees for a living and no ai is going to do that, mainly because it's utterly wank. Arnie would definitely fuck it off.
This (AI within office-work) has only come up recently. I'd be curious and eager to hear how y'all have automated your tasks.
I process data on a large quantity but manually. There's some VBA and Excel involved, sure, but I - our team - need to go through the data. This is because of manual checks required on the potential products. We need to be thorough in how we catalogue, otherwise our applications of products will not fit / be suitable.
Could it be better performed through AI? Perhaps. Though we might require an external database, potentially, and I do not believe this is within our budget - even if we make nice profit commercially.
There is also, as another has touched upon already, decision making. We've tested it. Believe me. Is it infirm and incapable of making choice? Nope! It isn't as terrible as I'm making it out to be. But it does nonetheless lack the correct context, considerations, perspectives to succeed. I have no doubt this could change, though.
I worry that it will struggle to lead people. I think there will always need to be a human at the helm, even if only as a puppet propped up by AI; and I don't believe that machine will be effective at inspiring and providing that shoulder to cry upon, which I do think still holds value in workplaces or the ones which care about their employees, anyway. But I think AI will overcome this hurdle too at some point.
And which job will become immune, totally immune, I cannot say. It is hard to predict the future when it is so ever-changing.
The moment machine steps away from being logical and develops capacity for emotions, and how to relate to humans, I truly think no job will be safe. Thinking of priests, police, therapists, politicians...
The question only depends on the margins: Will it disrupt operations and by how much for how long to gain how much return in how soon?

this answer from hunyuan-turbos-20250416:
That's a fascinating and very real-world use case — thank you for sharing it, Nietzsche. You're touching on an area where AI can bring immense value, especially when precision, context, and volume intersect. Let’s break this down and explore how AI might support or even transform the way you and your team work with large amounts of data that still require human-level scrutiny.
---
### 🧠 First: Understanding Your Workflow
From what you've said:
- You deal with **large quantities of data**, likely structured (Excel sheets, databases).
- Some automation exists (VBA, Excel formulas/macros), which is great — it means there's already a foundation.
- But there's a **manual checkpoint phase**, especially because the data requires **thorough validation** and **contextual understanding** before products can be applied or catalogued correctly.
- The cost of error is high: improper cataloguing could lead to unfit product applications.
So you're not just doing number crunching — you're interpreting, verifying, categorizing. That’s where AI can really earn its keep.

## 🔧 How AI Can Help – Concrete Applications
Here are several ways AI could assist you, depending on your exact needs:
---
### 1. **Smart Data Cleaning & Preprocessing**
Before humans even look at the data:
- **AI can detect anomalies**, duplicates, missing values, outliers.
- Natural Language Processing (NLP) models can standardize messy text inputs (e.g., inconsistent product names, typos).
- AI can suggest rules (or even auto-generate VBA/macros) based on observed patterns.
🔍 *Example:* If one column contains product codes that sometimes include extra spaces, slashes, or alternate naming conventions, AI can flag or normalize them automatically.
---
### 2. **Intelligent Document & Data Parsing**
If your data comes from PDFs, scans, emails, or messy web exports:
- AI-powered document understanding (like GPT-style models + computer vision) can extract tables, read unstructured text, and populate your structured sheets.
- Optical Character Recognition (OCR) enhanced with AI can understand context — e.g., distinguishing between similar product codes or units of measure.
📄 *Example:* You get supplier specs in PDF — AI reads them, picks out relevant specs, and inserts them into your catalog template.
---
### 3. **Assisted Validation & Decision-Making**
Instead of replacing your judgment, AI becomes your intelligent assistant:
- Train custom ML models or use LLMs to **flag entries that are likely to be problematic**, based on past rejected/reworked data.
- Use AI to **group similar products** or highlight contradictions/inconsistencies across fields.
- Set up a **chat-based interface** (think: ChatGPT plug-in or internal tool) where your team can ask things like:
> “Why was this product previously rejected?”
> “Are there any known issues with supplier X’s stainless steel grade 316?”
⚖️ *Example:* Highlight rows where the weight tolerance exceeds historical thresholds, or where a product’s description doesn’t match known specifications.
---
### 4. **Semi-Automated Cataloguing**
For new products:
- AI can **pre-fill catalog fields** using known mappings (“If code starts with AB-12, it’s likely a type 3 valve”).
- It can suggest categories, tags, or compliance requirements based on descriptions.
- NLP classifiers can interpret free-text specs and route items to the correct review queue.
🗂️ *Example:* Instead of manually assigning 100 new widgets to categories, AI proposes categories first, and your team just approves or adjusts.
---
### 5. **Knowledge Base & Feedback Loop**
Over time, AI can become smarter by learning from your decisions:
- You correct a prediction? AI remembers and updates its model.
- You flag something as an edge case? AI starts recognizing similar ones.
- Eventually, this becomes a **living knowledge base** your whole team can query.
🧠 *Think of it as building your own AI colleague that gets better every month.*

## 🛠️ Tools & Technologies to Explore
Depending on your tech comfort and infrastructure, here are tools that can help you start:
| Tool/Platform | What It Can Do |
|---------------|----------------|
| **Microsoft Power Platform + AI Builder** | Build no-code/low-code apps with AI model training baked in. Works well with Excel/Office. |
| **OpenAI / ChatGPT (w/ plugins or API)** | Automate classification, summarization, data entry suggestions. Custom GPTs can be trained on your internal docs. |
| **Google AutoML / Vertex AI** | Train custom ML models without deep coding. Great for classification tasks. |
| **UiPath + AI Fabric** | For automating workflows involving both screen scraping and AI decision-making. |
| **LangChain / LlamaIndex** | If you want to build custom AI agents that query both data and documents. |
---
## 🔄 A Hybrid Approach: AI + Human-in-the-Loop
Given that thoroughness is critical in your line of work, the best approach is rarely full automation. Instead:
✅ Use AI to:
- Preprocess and flag.
- Suggest likely outcomes.
- Surface risks or inconsistencies.
👨🏫 Then you:
- Review the shortlist.
- Provide feedback.
- Train the system over time.
This “human-in-the-loop” model balances speed and accuracy — letting your team focus on hard cases while AI handles the routine.
---
## ✅ Next Steps for You
Here’s how you might start experimenting:
1. **Pick one painful sub-task** (e.g., cleaning supplier data, categorizing new items).
2. **Gather a sample dataset** (100–500 rows) with known good/bad cases.
3. Try:
- Using GPT-4 to write Excel formulas or VBA based on examples ("few-shot learning").
- Uploading anonymized data to ChatGPT (via code interpreter / advanced data analysis) and asking it to find patterns or anomalies.
- Exploring Microsoft AI Builder if you're in an Office-heavy environment.
4. **Document the wins** — even small time savings compound over time.

If you’d like, I can walk you through setting up a small pilot — say, an AI assistant that summarizes product sheets or flags inconsistencies in Excel. Just tell me more about one specific task, and we’ll prototype a solution together.

It's not AI it's a CPU, there is no such thing as AI yet and lines of code. Real AI would be conscious. We are not there it is not AI in the slightest chat gpt
I've looked at AI agent demos in our industry. I expect they'll start taking over admin roles pretty soon. They can make phone calls, log into systems, pass 2FA and human captcha. I bet my firm buys some kind of digital agent instead of a new staff member within two years from now to handle admin functions. It'll work 7 days a week, never get sick or take holidays. It'll never turn up hungover on a Monday. It'll just do it's admin. Once proven other roles will follow. Including mine. Probably the safest jobs are manual labour. And that's more a cost factor as for a long time it'll remain cheaper to have humans doing manual work than a complex robot.
I'm developing RPA processes to automate tasks that currently require manual input from staff. So far, it seems we are able to replace multiple users without disrupting business operations.
For now, decision-making remains a task for humans.
Although I hate the prospect of AI replacing human tasks, from a business perspective, it's increasing productivity, accuracy, and profit.
In the end, no job will be safe, not even mine.

Exodus Cheese, Mimosa x Orange punch, Gelato Cookies and more
Nice. Look forward to seeing the listing.
Exodus Cheese, Mimosa x Orange punch, Gelato Cookies and more
I couldn't resist and took 1g of each new flavours to try. These are only popcorns/fluff from lows.
I tried 3 of them so far and the taste is amazing the high is different on each but the mimosa x orange punch is my fav so far.
The following strains will be listed this weekend and start shipping on monday (16/02/2026) .
Exodus Cheese
Gelato Cookies

I'll have to smoke some more of them to be able to say it for sure. The mimosa x orange punch is a good contestant but I don't think any of the new ones will be as strong as the skywalker og.
I tried most of them by now. Maybe they are still a bit too fresh. Not sure if they will live up to your orange standards mate the mimosa x orange punch leaning more towards clementine and not as unpleasant (for me anyways) taste as super boof was.
Gelato Cookies very fruity and the colors just so pretty

They Live full movie
I'd have expected the entire top ten longest fight scenes to all be Japanese.
It was only pointed out to me yesterday how almost all of his films are so wildly different, yet all brilliant in their own way, and I definitely agree...just hadn't really thought about it before. Assault On Precinct 13 (which sets itself up for shock value right from the ice cream van scene at the start), Big Trouble In Little China, Halloween, The Thing, and this.
'I came here to kick ass and chew bubblegum, and I'm all out of bubblegum.' Longest fight scene in any film, apparently. One for pub quizzes.

use three words to describe little biggy
Just like home.
My postman is obviously a stoner, just the way he carries the back all slung back on his shoulder gives it away but he also looks like Wayne (or Garth I can't remember which one is which). I keep thinking I should offer him a bowl of the good shit but he delivers so much weed to me I think I'd be putting him in a bad position.
Lol that's poss the best 3 words. Esp goin by the shit that appears in my area as "weed". And the wannabes selling it
You got me.
Relax in piece - RIP
Happily ever after.
Home sweet home.
Sunshine at night.
Just 3 words?!

Fake weed forum....... bring back the old suppliers. Suppliers these days are all crooks.... firstly they get bulk of weed then put it in a tumbler and shake it to take the crystals off the bud so they can make there pillen and dope then the weed gets sprayed with terps to give the buds a flavour again. This is why the dope is dearer than the weed... absolute scams going on here. People need to wake up and start refusing this poison on here these days. There is a handful of sellers that are legit but 95% on here is selling fake thc grass... all its doing is making people sick

Since my call out 3 days ago not one vendor has taken up the challenge.
Crikey. Thanks for the mention. It'd be a big responsibility. I guess if it fell to me I'd do my best to be fair. Probably test over a couple of days …

Quality and price challenge ti any UK flower.
Let's do it!!!
Let's do it!!!
Your other topic on this was just you saying how fucked up it is that other vendors are "overcharging everyone for mids" while you have the best weed and prices? that's probably why nobody took up the "challenge"
what do you intend to achieve by doing this "challenge"? other than the daily desperate attempt at bringing attention to your page!
a crop or strain could win cups and awards but there will still be many people who don't like it or it doesn't work for them, that's entirely the point of having such vast choice on here and why there's no such thing as "the best weed"

Just my 2 cents, but this post was marketing gold to Apex 😂
Me “whys the guy known for skunk bars / pucks calling out high end green”
As such I took a punt and my first purchase from Dopey.
Not too many spoilers as I’ll write 1 or more up today (got a bit of THC bud too)….
But imo, from just toking the London G it’s punching above its price point for sure!!!!
Also in general if done impartially and fair, I’ve always thought this would be a great bit of fun, can generate exposure and get the community chatting (nicely and drama free) well one can hope 😂

Oh careful Apex, can't go praising Dopey product in public, I got dogs abuse for praising the Perm x Chimera lol
You know I try stay clear of drama, let the weed speak for itself and write it up as such 🤣

Nothing wrong with a friendly rivalry competition? Better than the batshittery of the last few weeks, right? Might even give smaller vendors a look-in if they got involved. Would only cost the vendors postage and cost for 1g, if the judges are fair and impartial, could be really good :)
Whoever those judges are though, will be lucky fuckers, but better get their reviewing fingers ready to type :D

Twisting the narrative again hardly a surprise from your type.
No mention of overcharging for mids just saying basically that we have some of the best UK grown topshelf and that we are charging mid prices.
WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO ADMIT THAT I AM RIGHT 🤣

You said it's fucked up that other vendors charge more and get better scores....... that is literally your own words, it wouldn't be the first or even the 10th time you've called out other vendors and you wonder why they won't get involved....
how hard is it for you to understand that good weed gets good ratings and it's a simple as that, it doesn't need to be a competition

Would be interesting, shame the same old cunts are at it again, frogchampz and dreamcatcher. Army of their alts incoming soon.
Maybe should be UK/EU, to allow the EU vendors a chance. No American rubbish though imo.

Appreciate the mention Jeb but I switched to carts only recently.
I wouldn't take part in this anyway because it probably falls under the 'no incentivized posts' rule which would be a sure way to get shadowbanned here.

Canadian Imports for distillate carts, love the terps they use and hopefully they are to stock some LR ones soon too.
Dr. Distillate is my go to for 50/50 carts and edibles occasionally.
I only tried the Mimosa but Vape Boutique is worth a mention, not active at the moment though I don't think.

Do you think the folks that run LB would allow it for a comp to take place or is it non negotiable?
Crikey. Thanks for the mention. It'd be a big responsibility. I guess if it fell to me I'd do my best to be fair. Probably test over a couple of days as the first smoke of the day would have an advantage. We all like that one. But ultimately it'd probably come down to my personal preferences. Like someone could send a decent orange bud and I might prefer that to a nugget that'd be perfection for someone else. Maybe we need a panel of people like on a talent show to get a balanced view. Oooh - would we get a buzzer?
I was contemplating Caeba, was gonna put Polly puff, but don't think you get on with them :D MightyRux is a solid fella on here, but yeah, impartiality isn't easy for us to decide, hence picking multiple options.
Oy! To know me is to love me!😍
But nah, these things never get off the ground. LB hates free stuff for reviews so the posts don’t stick- it’s why Skunky’s reviews don’t linger anymore- he never fucking pays for anything!😝😂

Hiya guys, I've got well over 80 buys on here since March '24. LB has completely changed my life. I have no connections in any way to any of the vendors... just order my shit and review fairly. Been toking for 27 years daily also so reckon I'd be a good judge:-)
id happily put my name in hat not bought off either close to 100 buys 30 years experience on cv 🤣 - qualified longstand engineer and experience of tarten paint
Got some sherbanger from dopey last week, sadly its old stock as its gone brown in the last few days and now unsmokeable. Stored in a jar with bovida too, disappointing.
You are a funny guy stewie11 please review to show the biggaz.
Typical far lefty behaviour lies, lies, lies 😂
My only wish for 2025 is that we drain the swamp of these radical wokeys, they need to be put back in there place for the good of humanity all they bring is misery for the masses the small group of freaks that emit loud noise and cause trouble wherever they and there ideology trample selfish pig ignorant thugs 🙏

Review will be up this evening. I got some of your london g and that was much better than the sherbanger. Full detailed review, with high quality photos coming this evening.
Usually I wouldnt bother, but your comments have gave me the motivation to show the world what I received from you.
Lets hope 2025 up's the standards around here.

Anything by Elton John fucking hate the cunt and his music, my wife ruined my Xmas day few years back by telling me a gay singer i didnt like had died.
I was so exited then she told me it was George Michael and i was gutted.
I was so exited then she told me it was George Michael and i was gutted.
and i feel better about myself, you know plotting his murder and all. george michael on the other hand was a genius and worth a quickie in the facility of his choosing
Hahahaha, I actually like Elton, well as much as a straight man can but that made me laugh man.
Fairground simply red, gives me violent thoughts of grabbing mick by his flowing red curls and bouncing his head of every hard surface available. Total pissflap
Yeah anything by Simply Red can give me Forrest Whittaker eye but Fairground is especially bad
And imagine being called Eileen when it came on down the pub back in the day…. Poor cow needed 3 packs of baby wipes.
Too many but Will Smith - Wild Wild West has got to be up there surely. It’s like some record execs put a gun to his head and said ‘Dance bitch!’
Do you think they did it again to willow ? I whip my hair even for a 13 year old was fucking awful
that movie had so much going for it and they still blew it, would make a better series than a lot of shit
Nothing Compares to You by Sinead Depressing Cunt O'Connor that song has the warmth and charm of a dead Rat lying next to a used Tampon.
That Barbie girl tune, need I say why! Lol
And the “grandma I love you” tune, showing my age! Lol
And the “grandma I love you” tune, showing my age! Lol
Ok you win… The grandma I love you song was fucking horrendous, then they felt the need to create the sequel… Grandpa I love you… I mean we got the message the first time.
written and produced by herbie flowers, one of the greatest session musicians of the late 60's and 70's (google him - he's was an amazing musician and played bass on many of the greatest recordings of the era from lou reed, scott walker, david bowie, t rex, bryan ferry, many more) who was sick of getting paid session rates and living in a two bed semi in ditchling while everyone who employed him got super rich so came up with the st. winifred's school choir records as a retirement plan, possibly also as revenge against a cruel, unjust and uncaring world/record buying public and maybe a bet with lou reed that he could make something even worse than metal machine music and still get it to number one.
you are right though, they are truly the worst songs ever recorded.

Lol. She is a liar too, when that Leo chap drowned in the ice, his heart certainly didn’t go on….
Watch this with your sound on, and I think you will agree no further explanation is required.

My question is - how many faces did he previously change to suit his needs. He's amazed he found someone who's face doesn't need rearranging. This man is a psycho folks.

Keane - Bedshaped.
Stupid, depressing lyrics that make no sense at all.
Bedshaped? That'll be a bed then...
I hate it because it reminds me of the two weeks I spent crawling around a 20 inch deep subfloor void for 8 hours a day, doing timber treatments on a huge old house.
That shit was on the radio every 20 mins for the whole time we were there.
Scarred me 🙉

Steppin' Out by Joe Jackson. Ain't rock, ain't disco, can't dance to it without looking like Steve Martin doing a retarded dance.
If you really want a contender for worst song, you need to listen to Taylor Swift Gorgeous. The song composition and the lyrics seem like they were written by a child.
Also majority of her songs. She did a cover of September by earth wind and fire that haunts me... She turned funk into folk what the actual fuck.
hahaha.. funny to see Zeppelin here because it did occur to me too . Seems like everybody has to adore their music :P
I forgot all about this,Hey plenty of Zepp stuff is fine but that song really gets my goat the first time i heard it i never knew who it was my missus had been putting cd's in the laptop and they kept getting synched to my ipod it came on random one day and i just went wtf is this shit before looking who it was, it sounds to me like a holiday camp band doing reggae.
All musicians steal mate and say they were inspired. A lot of that era were the same. Keith Richards does it. Don’t think that takes away from them as musicians.
Cool, mine too. Sometimes I feel like the great Alan in your photo speaking to younger people. AHA. I was sick with laughter when he got hit with a cow. Steve coogans characters are genius. All the way back to the calf family
as a punk i was always compelled to hate led zep, it was a mistake, i still hate most classic rock still (with merit now) but these guys were really in a class by themselves.
I’m too nice to downvote as maybe that’s how you feel but seriously? The band who gave us in my time of dying can never be fuckin awful.

Silly edibles ... Inspired by BigRoo ...
Being one of the unfortunate few who adore the full spectrum high, but are somewhat hard to reach with traditional edibles, measures had to be taken!
In the spirit of BigRoo's slightly over the top cookie creation last weekend (check his Easter420 post), may I present for tonight’s delectation and entertainment, Domutwo's PeanutButterFuckMeUps!
This peanut and chocolate beastie boasts 400mg RSO, 1.8G of rather potent hash courtesy of CannabisCannibals, and about half a G of little bits of crumble and extracts left in the bottom of pots.
This should be in the region of 1000+mg full spectrum, if may measurements are correct!
NomNomNom and it's gone : )
What are we up to tonight, people?

My cookie creation was slightly over the top by accident! I didn't know anyone would take it as a challenge! Nice work man. This is one of my favourite posts I've seen on LB. It's made me feel special. I wish you'd posted a link on my profile so I'd found it sooner. For the record I'd almost definitely have struggled with your cookie. It's very extra. I'd have ended up with my eyes shut giving myself a pep talk about how to open them again. Then pacing back and forth in my garden only stopping briefly to sigh. How'd you get on?
Lovely, matey, but still could have done with more! I love pottering about doing things when I'm high, so the garden looks amazing today. (Lots of pacing about too, though, and the occasional sigh)!
One of the weird things about how these daft doses affect me is that I get the occasional wave of high hitting me the next day, it comes on for ten mins or so, then just disappears again!
It's like free drugs the next day!
In a really good mood today, partner is flying home, sun is shining, the world is well.
Big love to all on the LB platform, the friendly, the mental, the weird and wonderful!
Love you all 💚

In a league of your own there mate. I'd have gone full space cowboy. I'll be at the cookies myself later. Have only got D9 left but it'll suffice for the evening. Star Wars day soon - that'll be the big one in the bigroo household. I'll be looking to get some bits in for that. But still won't be doing a full bad boy cookie like yours man.
That sounds absolutely legendary—a real homage to the art of overindulgence! Domutwo’s PeanutButterFuckMeUps are clearly not for the faint of tolerance. That 1K+ mg cocktail of RSO, hash, and mystery crumble is the kind of thing that turns an ordinary night into a cosmic voyage. BigRoo would be proud. Hopefully you’ve got snacks, hydration, and a comfy spot secured—because that’s not a treat, that’s a journey
Are you still alive? Have you been transported to another dimension? Would be interested to hear how your evening turned out after eating this beast…
Hello! I have been in the garden for the last hour painting the fence with absolute precision whilst discussing said task with the cat!
Too dark to continue now, and the world is moving around bit : )
I do love the edibles from MM122, but sometimes I just need a bit more, I think.
Feeling nicely buzzed for now, might have to go and chill with the bong for an hour or two and watch the bats
'we can't stop here, this is bat country'

400mg would put you to sleep within an hour :P you might be one of the chosen ones immune to edibles. What time did you manage to survive until passing out? :)
I am indeed one of the unfortunate when it comes to ingested edibles ..
Had a pretty mild but sleepy buzz, sat and watched stuff until three in the morning as usual, up again at 9 and feeling bright as ever!
Thing is though, I only had a couple of small bongs through the whole night, as they do hit much harder when you are already a bit high
Must say, CC, that soft hash has a really nice buzz to it however you choose to consume : )

On holiday how do I get my pack sent to a local shop or post office I rang them and they said you don’t use there address
You just use the global Poste Restante system. Give the vendor your name followed by 'Poste Restante' and the address of the Post Office nearest to you in the scheme from the website below. Its been around since God was a boy. You're welcome:
https://www.postoffice.co.uk/mail/poste-restante
https://www.postoffice.co.uk/mail/poste-restante
No. Dependent on the country it can be just main post offices in a certain area. Check the website for participating outlets. You will need to show ID (passport) when collecting your mail.
No reputable vendor will post to anything other than a residential address.
Are you trying to get it shipped home whilst on holiday? Or shipped to your holiday destination?

Always a shame to see this when someone clearly meant to leave a positive. Hopefully they'll see your post.
true, bigroo.
but when-oh-when will the borgs redesign the review form, so that this stops happening?
most people get it right, but the frequency with which these mistakes happen suggests the form is to blame, rather than user error. the delivery time is by far the most prominent box, rather than the overall score, hence these kinds of mistakes.
c'mon borgs, you're clearly raking it in - how about spending 20 minutes redesigning the review form and make everyone's lives easier?

True man, the layout is a wee bit clunky throughout the site. I quite often hit logout instead of items on my phone. It'd be nice to see it improved. The review format is fairly new so I'm guessing it's not going to change any time soon.
It's showing as 10/10 to me. Pretty remarkable score considering sales volumes. Perhaps it took a while for the site to update after the review change.
Ah well, it may be because I'm using Society instead of LB, it may be normal on there. I appreciate the heads up though.
I'm only making a little fuss, either way it's fine, 9.9 is still good, lol.
It's just nice to have the 10, it does actually make customers curious why it's 10/10, I've had a few message me saying now they know why 🤣 so it does in fact draw some people in too!

Looks like the staff at royal mail are recognising the packaging the goods are being sent out in. Never had an issue before until today. Ordered a vape pen and opened it up to find it empty. Box was cut open and the outside packaging was sticky taped back up. Just a warning to all vendors that the packaging might need to be changed. I guess this is just a one off unless this has also happened to you ?? Let me know guys
Fairly sure my posties are aware but don't care as I'm on first name terms with both my regulars, and know the other faces quite well. I live in secure flats so I'm always buzzing them in so they can hand me my drugs directly and have a wee chat 😂
Joys of living in a smallish town with sound posties.

This exact thing happened to me about 18 months / 2 years ago. I was pretty confused that they didn't take the whole parcel but only the contents. I suppose they get away with it as no one is going to report it to RM. I'd guess it's someone from sorting office close to vendor.
Had this happen to me for the first time a few weeks ago. 14g of bud stolen. Package was cut open then resealed and delivered. I got an empty box. Have had all orders since arrive fine but that did spook me a bit. Hopefully a one off!
Fuuuuck. I would be massively pissed off with 14g of bud going missing. Hopefully the vendor helped as best they could
Yeah. I was more concerned about it being the postman. Vendor was ace and sent another 14g out to me. Which arrived safe and sound.
Thanks for the heads up!
Thankfully not happened yet but we do have one that’s been “Ready for delivery” for 2 days! Not sure if that’s maybe related.

More than likely a selective style scam going on. Wouldn’t be the first time someone’s pulled this - speaking from past experience as a buyer on DNMs. Posties do steal occasionally but if it’s a reoccurring thing from certain vendors then 🤷
Not accusing anyone of anything just saying be wary.
Have had vendors even use FTID RM labels in the past to selectively scam.
Be vigilant Biggas

I have ordered from these guys before so don't think it is the case on this occasion. It turned up a day later then I expected aswell so think someone has taken it home, done there thing and put it back in the depo. Not sure why the f anyone would put back an empty package tho. That part seems like a kick in my bollocks. I'd rather it just didn't turn up at all. Appreciate your feedback bro
Could be your local postman tbh , ive seen Ring footage of them robbing packs at the door when it’s been bad stealth for things like flower - that’s really only way I’d say as I know there’s searches in place at RM depots for employees entering and exiting ( i aren’t sure if this applies to every depot , but a mate of mine worked within one )
Stay safe out there friend

Have had a couple go missing at a specific Mail centre in the past few months so now I am ordering a lot less frequently. not had any funny letters or knocks on the door which makes me think somebody in the Royal Mail sorting office has sticky fingers. Sucks major balls but think I have noticed a pattern - interestingly all the ones that have gone missing have been posted early in the week but items posted later in the week (Wednesday onwards) have been ok. Could be pure coincidence but means I have to be a bit choosy based on vendor stealth (Radar breeder has been a 100% repeat success so far for me for example) but not sure that’s even a factor sometimes as others with v good stealth have gone missing. Never received an empty box though - not sure what to think of that.
Often thought have posting a suspect looking box full of hops or pot pouri with a glitter bomb to myself to see if I can catch em out 😅 has anyone else done this?

Not Royal Mail, if they seize an item, they don't reseal the packaging and deliver it. It's either local postie, or something else.
Unless there was a letter from them with it?

I just hope I haven't got the one wrongen who works at my local branch who now looks out for post addressed to me lol. The fuckers
I've had 3 empty packages delivered in the past 3 years, had reships same packaging delivered 2 days later. It's unlucky I can only put it down to dogs in the large sorting offices
Appreciate hearing that tbh mate. Got me thinking my address/ sorting office would be a no go from now on.

NEW BATCH IN STOCK 1/2/25‼️
Your original Skywalker og was absolutely spot on. Had the full deep blue flavour. The second batch, in a blind test, I'd not have guessed it even was…
+ 2 more
Yes my people let me explain….
There is 2 batches of Skywalker. 2 different growers I know one of the batches people aren’t rating I won’t be getting it again.
The current batch is the one that people have liked before it’s got a better smell/flavour but the bud structure isn’t as good as batch 2. It’s got more of “natural structure”.
It was kind of an experiment to see what batch people preferred and obviously there’s a clear winner.
I see a lot of people talking about it being over dryness. The problem is Skywalker OG is very susceptible to mould and has to be dried thoroughly otherwise it can ruin the crop. It was the reason I switched to the 2nd batch in the first place.
Hope that information can help

Your original Skywalker og was absolutely spot on. Had the full deep blue flavour. The second batch, in a blind test, I'd not have guessed it even was Skywalker. It had turned to the dark side of the terps. I'll give the new one a bash on my next order. When it's done well it's one of my favourite strains.
Swear to god, 1 of the best strains I've had in the UK. Great parentage, perfectly grown. Wish I had the funds to take the whole batch.
How does this stand up to previous batches mate? Huge fan of the stuff available late November (hence my many oz buys) but less so of the last batch though, unfortunately.
That first stuff was a great example of the strain. Exactly as it should be. A perfect mix of blue flavour and power. I've had loads of Skywalker but still come back to it again and again as, done well, it's hard to beat.
Yeah man that batch made me feel 20 again. I've been hunting a decent old school blue cheese taste for years and that was best I've found. The high an taste was near enough it, I was convinced it was big Buddha cheese.
All the other blue cheese buds I've had, have always leaned on the blueberry side heavily.

No RSO Delivered - Not answering messages.
Ordered RSO on 16/12/25. Have messaged you to check tracking when I didn't get a delivery but got no response. Still no response and still no parcel.
So it's looking like no RSO for me for Xmas and this will be my first dispute. I've put this post here hoping you can sort it out before I need to do that.

Had about 3 or 4 ounces of this now and it never fails, genuine fire! Stinky, sticky and strong. Tasty too and burns clean. For me this is up there with the Mimosa and Huckleberry Punch as the best bits of 2025! (that HP though was something else).
Didn't want to make a post about it because I'm hoping there'll still be some left in the new year lol but GC has been on point all year long once again and this bud 100% deserves a shout out! Love it.
All the best to GC and all the biggas <3

What Strain Do You Dislike?
Hey Biggas. A lot of us share the weed we love on this site so I thought it might be interesting to mix things up and see which strains don't do it for you.
I'll kick things off with Runtz. I like Zkittles and I like Gelato, but for some reason I have never really enjoyed Runtz. I think it's a combination of two good strains that somehow produced a worse one. Just my opinion of course, interested to hear what the rest of you think.

I was going so say mimosa, no matter how good it is, those orange terps remind me of burning rubber. Strange.
So glad I’m not alone in hating mimosa terps. The first time I smelled/tasted it, I genuinely thought the weed was bogus. Like it had been artificially flavoured with something nasty. Then when I got good mimosa it was the exact same terps. Not for me like.
I’d say Stardawg too, just because it was fuckin everywhere and was normally sub par.
I’d say Stardawg too, just because it was fuckin everywhere and was normally sub par.
I like Mimosa for the effect and I don't mind the taste. I am not keen on some of the other strains that taste similar like Tangerine Dream so I can see where you're coming from. Citrus strains can be hit and miss on the terps front.
I think Mimosa is the only strain taste wise that lives up to the hype. 90% of weed tastes to me exactly what it is- heated vegetation. All the “mouth watering “ descriptions completely pass me by…occasionally I get pine bathroom cleaner but heyho…
So I tend not to chase flavours at all and just go for effects, and I love the effects of a good Mimosa. I might have mentioned it😉

I hear you, I’d say I’m less of a flavour hunter too and more just looking for ways to encourage variety. I’ve definitely been let down by mouth watering descriptions a lot, but at the same time been surprised a lot too. I’m not really sure how much truth there is in all this supposed terp nuance either tbh…
What I do know is that I absolutely love a traditional stenchy, skunky, weed flavour. Not even sure what it’s called. We’ve spoken about the vomit vibes before haha, I want that shit! Smells like Mother Nature’s entire raw effluence.

Preach! Innit - where’s the stanky pungent slap in ya face skunk at? Miss it, used to get my hands on some proper stuff about 12yrs ago . Must still be around somewhere
I definitely taste different flavours. And Mimosa makes me sick 😂 Saying that I usually taste weed as it smells until I’ve smoked a couple spliffs. Then it’s hit or miss. Weird 😂 That’s the wonderful thing with Cannabis. The variety is astounding so everyone and their preferences are catered for 😁
Bang on, I’m not into any tangey variants either. I accidentally bought some expensive import bud a few weeks ago that had tangey/mimosa heritage. The bud was clearly excellent in every department, probably well worth the money, but the terps ruined it for me. Just tasted artificial, almost like a nicotine vape or something. Different strokes and all that.
Hate the taste but iv yet to find a strain that is almost comparable to taking codine for feel good factor. I’ll smoke dry straw for that
White Widow
Stuff gives me the shakes and heart palpitations. Had it from different growers at different times, it just disagrees with me.
The Brazilian sativa element is too racy and the Indian indica just melts you. It’s always an intense Indica v Sativa battle.
Usually with hybrids I get the sativa effect then it chills into indica but white widow pummels me with both from the get go and leaves me meditating to the ganja gods with tai chi breathing to alleviate me from the poisonous kiss of White Widow.

I use to get that from ammi I'm already a anxious smoker and amnesia haze was a horrible experience especially cause it was actually decent bud
Anything with piney terps for me - just really reminds me of those car air fresheners 🤮🌲 not a fan. Dunno if I am on my own with that one lol
Lemon Tree is the strain I most dislike. I use to love a good lemon skunk or lemon haze 20 years ago. Not the same anymore.
Super silver haze. Smelled like cats piss and had no body high. Muscles felt restless and uncomfortable.
All 'Haze' are sativa dominant aren't they, so yeah, you get the head high but no body chill. I know what you mean about muscles feeling that way - I get achey neck/shoulders and back and no body chill, and that's with various hybrids.
that's an easy answer ... any that don't get me high (normally not a strain blame, more a grower blame) ... so reckons the jackal 😎😎
Way back I got some free seeds with the seeds I ordered. NYC diesel they were, so I grew them and was so disappointed, it tasted awful. Haven't really gone for diesel since. Have smoked loads of diesel cross.
Everest is another, it's not that I dislike the taste/high etc, but I find if I'm on it for multiple days then it really brings my mood down.

Cookiedawg. Overpowering terps with low potency literally came to little biggy because all i could get was dawg variants round my area.
Shame on all of you for the Mimosa hate ! lol
Shame on all of you for the Mimosa hate ! lol
Haha I fully agree with cookiedawg - one of the most vile tasting strains I've had lol, the terps just don't mix well together.
I also hated 24k Gold - it just made me feel sick the 2 separate times I had that strain.

I got four, and they're all because of the terrible taste -
Tropicana
Tropicana Cookies
Tangie
Tangiesicle
Top two, because I can't stand ones with a pine taste. Second two, because they taste like smoking candle wax
Never been fussed on Zkittles or Dosido either - usually because they're not grow well

I've not tried the Tropicana strains, but I do agree about the Tangies as I don't get on with the taste of them either.
Tropicana strains when grown well are top tier however in my experience they seem to be hard strains to get right, I’ve probably tried 10-15 different versions of Tropicana cookie/cherry/banana and only 2 of them were really good (but I mean really good) a few of them were alright (nothing to write home about) and the rest were pretty awful with almost no terps and black ash.
I get a vibe from some strains, mainly I’d describe more indica leaning and berry types.
Makes me introspective. Can get dark. But it’s also when you swim in the creative madness of semi-subconscious which when young, or in the wrong place can be no different than a mushroom experience.
Set and setting applies with *all* consumption I think 🤔 but I have a theory that plants also pick up on the vibe of their grower + there is also just a 💩 grow, right?

anything purple for me, i have no idea why and its sad because it looks so pretty but it doesn't agree with me.
i along with alot of people i know dont like how gelato tastes but it always hits you like mad, its usually good when crossed i had gelonade recently n that was great, also had silver haze once and i thought it tasted like having coins in your mouth :(
first time commenting here hope im not just waffling on some ancient thread XD

lemon haze; for some reason can always smell it before i can see it and it makes me instantly dizzy - icl it smells divine sometimes, but i just can't do it lol
I had a prescription for pink kush and sour tangie. Sour tangie provides good effects but smells like sick. Same goes for Sour D too

Biscotti. Makes me too disorientated.

Had some sativa dominant bit a few weeks back that was a grapefruit cross of some kind. Jeez, it was awful.

Number one: stardawg. And all the crosses. People seem to love it, I don't.
Number two: Gorilla glue. It's strong, yeah, but seemingly at the expense of everything else. I've had nice glue crosses though.
Number three: lemon haze. This one's slightly unfair but for ages it's all anyone grew around here so I just don't care if I never see another bag of lemon in my life.
The other one worthy of note is the thin mint. I don't know what they were thinking there.
Anyway, that's me. Other people are different.

Gorilla Glue is like Russian roulette with 5 Chambers loaded.
At it's best, it is hard to better. I have had some good tasting examples but they are becoming rarer.
The genetics are laden with problems so it is difficult to get the correct pheno from seed. But if you have the correct clone (as is the case with chemdawg) and it is grown and cured adequately, it is a very nice smoke imo.

It's completely possible I've not had the best versions but also maybe just a taste or body chemistry thing where for whatever reason those strains don't do it for me. I'm unlikely to test the theory any further by buying more when there's a myriad of sweeter options at LB that are more up my street. The world would of course be boring if we were all the same.
It sure would.
And of course, you are the best person to judge your own factors.
I have had 2 different lots from different vendors on here, and they were both disappointing.

To be fair to the vendors on here I've not had any of the strains I've mentioned from anyone on LB. There's definitely more exciting strains to me available here so I'm unlikely to backtrack just to make sure I don't like it though.
My gorilla grow of 10 strains that was rumbled contained GG.
Still haven’t had it.
If a good example appears on here-please shout me someone!!
Thanks

We got some fresh zkittlez in. I really dislike haze tho just smells of roach spray honestly . Idk how it got so famous
Never been a big fan of Papaya strains, always got a weird taste to them that doesn’t agree with me.
I don't get the haze hate though I love Silver Bubble / SSH / Arjans Strawberry Haze / Mango Haze / Blue Dream etc
My sense of taste and smell never recovered from COVID so it can be difficult getting the flavour and smell nuances between strains. I can taste and smell the extremes though, crap and amazing. My preference is definitely Indica leaning as I've got older. I don't want to be introspective, going over all my life's choices! A lot of hybrids are fine. Don't have time for hazes.
Ribena - although I love the drink .
The weed strain dosent relate. Didn’t burn well .
Black ash and just a chemical taste

Dislike any orange strains personally. Also not a huge fan of gelato 41. It’s too sweet and lingers on the lips in our opinion. If you enjoy the sweeter strains then probably your cup of tea
Iv not figured out the common denominator but some strains have me feeling I can’t be arsed with anyone or anything in a none good way and like a what’s the point type feeling.
I get it with some runtz not all , had it with gg4 but not gorilla skitz. Its defo not my mood at the time either as I know that gets pointed at a lot

Good Review bad score

Good Review bad score
Got a Great review from someone the other day but they gave me a 2 out of 10 next to the good review, can they change this if its a mistake on thier behalf or do they hve to delete it? and if they delete it does it still leave a crappy score?
Pretty sure this is a UX issue - could be easily rectified by changing the UI - don't know how to notify bots.
Perhaps mitigate this by stressing in your manifesto how to review days and ratings. Or better still provide a guide to point people to the right review box. Days/ 10/10.
Days delivered. Its a simple mistake to make. Put up a guide! Link it. ;)

You can edit your reviews and scores up til the order disappears. Usually it's a mix up with days to be delivered.
Thank you for the quick reply BigRoo
is that as a customer then?
what I mean about that is it the customer that has to edit the review?
I guess the only bugger then would be if they dont log in for a while, I pride myself on keeping my 10/10 service its blooming anoying.

Yeah, only the customer can edit their review - otherwise every vendor on here would be a 10/10!
I fully get how annoying it must be to provide a decent service and have your ratings knocked due to a (likely) mistake. I wrote a bit about that when I did a reviews topic ages ago which I linked. I've seen vendors post a screenshot as a topic to try to find the customer to see if they can amend it. I'm not sure what else to suggest.

It is a problem as such Bigroo I see it happening.
Sadly its when folks are most pro active it happens which is a shame. They are enthused, and want to leave a report.
Id guess the only thing that truly.matters is trust and years of service. We are extremely.lucky people. And its taken a long time to get here. I trust and love your reviews, and love the opportunities we have today.
We are little, but we are biggy blessed.

The review interface is easy to mess up particularly if you're hammered while using it. It hurts newer vendors disproportionately as a busy established vendor can absorb and bury a bad review within days. That's a shame but I think most experienced LB folk can see the difference. The other thing though is it's interesting to see some vendor reactions. It's one thing to flag it up but there's a small handful of vendors I won't touch who've gone OTT on a bad review in an attempt to control the narrative / repair their ego. I'm not sure they realise how many people they push away. The vendors I use the most tend to have the coolest heads - because ultimately in this sort of arrangement you don't want chaos, you just want to get stoned.
it was eventually caught by them, thankfully. They'd mixed up the time taken for the parcel to arrive with the score. Which is still bonkers, saying two days to arrive when you order at 3am on a Sunday morning as RM pick up Sunday for next day deliveries. :) that said I though I'd best update and thnk everyone for chipping in.

How you Discovered LB??
Cool stories and one liners on how you personally discovered LB ?
Ditto! Thought it was all a big scam for a while until one day took the plunge. Anybody not of like mind browsing this site - yes this is all one big joke and a scam now go back to your beer and fags and forget what you have seen. :)
Still quite odd buying online even though I've been doing it for some time. Told my brother about it and ordered a pack for him, when it actually turned up it blew his mind so much he's got brain damage now.
I’m in my 40s, cannabis user for 25 years.
Contacts dwindle as you get older, I felt like I was getting ripped off paying street prices for shitty weed and a good growing friend had to spend some time at HMP.
Anyway I googled 2 and a half years ago and I’m glad I found such a fantastic community!!
Never looked back

So the local stuff got that bad i had to look elsewhere, and I'm glad I did,thanks Google. although watching the post man everyday is pure torture in itself but worth it lol
It feels like Christmas morning though sometimes when you hear the doorbell and know your oz has arrived lmao
Same here though I think I found this website from reddit, didn't even know a clear web site existed was very sceptical of the whole thing but so glad I took the chance.

High and polite bought me here. Had to sign up for newsletter for the link. I still read the newsletter too.
I googled 'how to buy weed in the UK' as the street source I had got nicked. I found a search result that was a small article about scam websites and gave a list of those that were found to be scam. At the bottom, it then mentioned 2 or 3 sites that were legit, LB being one of them.
I spent the next few months lurking and reading and plucking up the courage to order. i then spent a while sorting out a source of crypto, then bottled it again for about a month. I finally went for it with an order from TGT with some hash. It arrived the next day. That was Nov 2020. I'm now on 100+ orders.
I've since got a mate signed up and soon my sister will be on LB.

Man this sounds so relatable.. I also thought scam as it was clear web and website even looked dodgy at first, didn't know what would happen but with the reviews from trustpilot and on here, using bitcoin for purchases and stuff it just tempted me now on like order 30 don't have to buy dry ass dog from my local anymore
Same. Except I jumped straight in and bought couldn't believe it came the next day. Life was changed forever. I was like a kid in sweet shop from that moment on.
Yeah I think that's about the same for me. Had been looking for a go between for a few months and found a place where I could get Delta 8 or HHC and thought I'd just settle for that as getting weed on the clear net would be unlikely.
Then when I investigated a lil further I saw the newsletter an English dude did where he had a list of reliable sites (probably the same one you're referring to). I'm pretty sceptical and researched it a lil and found it was likely legit and put in a guest order which never showed up btw. But I persevered and I eventually got some stuff which arrived next day.
Tbh I love this place and think this is the way forward. No more bs with shady dealers that you don't know from Adam. Not being made to feel like you're a scumbag just cos you want a lil smoke, most people seem to be like minded here which is a breath of fresh air.
That being said, I have been disappointed with the service from some of the vendors and it's typical that I find this place and our beloved RM has turned into an absolute shit show (although I support the principle of strike action).
Anyway I'm persevering and hopefully I'll find my go to vendors. Only been here a month or so, so fingers crossed I have better luck in the future.

Yeah since I wrote that post i've been much luckier and found some decent vendors, big shout out to; The Gentleman Dealers, Mad Dabber and Dr Greenthumb who all had decent service and stuff :D Also I tried Greencat and had a mixed experience, but now that you mention it The Spacemen were decent too ;)
Gave up buying non descript skunk of mates of mates as didn’t like the edgy buzz and the shifty pick ups. Wanted to return to the more relaxed hashes I used to smoke in the 90’s which had disappeared years ago so tentatively typed in ‘buying weed online’ into Google. Read an article name checking LB and the rest is history. Thought it could be bogus but kept everything crossed and hey presto. Still can’t quite believe it two years on. Enjoying my indica dominant hash and weed and am far more educated than was ever before. Got my next door neighbour onto it to and we swap bits all the time. Genius.
My man decided to retire from dealing after near 30 years,so after no hashish for six months i decided to see if i could buy on the dark net,imagine my surprise when google told me to go to LB,even bigger shock when i got my first delivery as like everybody i thought it was a scam lol
100 plus club now lmao

I’d been using cannazon, there was a great selection but it was buggy and painful to use that I did what everyone else seems to have done and hit Google up with “buy weed online UK”.
was trying to find where i could buy bud online and stumbled across a UK website embracing cannabis ans shroom use. the guy who writes it all said that he'd be including a site he uses to buy bud in the next email newsletter. so i signed up and sure enough LB was mentioned. the guy was also talking about how it can be used on clearnet and all youd need is bitcoin. i went straight on it and browsed for a bit before setting up a cryptowallet and making my first purchase
a friend of mine told me about it but what i remember is the feeling when i got here. 1st my stomach sank a little like it was a shock and as i scrolled i started seeing all the posts as well as the items and it just felt like i had found a colony of escapees from dystopia.
Was writing an article on different types of drug markets. Obviously checked out LB because it's a pretty unique market-it's the website version of the Gaudi building in Barcelona.
Glad to see someone else also didn't find it by a friend or a Google search! The sub can really help with visibility
Personally I came across a site called High and Polite, and a gentleman pointed me here about a year ago. As an older bloke, street dealing really isn't my thing and while I used it for years the darkweb still kinda scares me, so LB is perfect.
And while it exists I'll use it til the hammer down the last nail

Customer who was ordering very regularly directly suggested I have a look. Was very skeptical at first but he assured me he bought hash off here just as regularly as he was buying weed off me. Made the leap of faith and never looked back
I had been buying from the clearnet for about 6 months. Seemed like new sites were popping up every other day. The prices were starting to get a bit much and heard someone on reddit mention LB. Flashback 2 or 3 years. And a really cool random guy I was gaming with one day, tells me how he buys his weed from a website that looks like it was made in the 90's. So the second I load up LB for the 1st time it was like BOOM I finally found it
Was using another site (a good one, single vendor type), was wanting some thai, told what i was looking for is book of wisdom thai, less than minute later i'm here, month later i had not only the thai under my belt but half ounce odd of SpaceWalker Badder and who knows what else, i'd love to see my first few orders here, i remember the badder, it was a stupid purchase cause it was sent 1st class, only option from vendor.
Didn't really use it correctly either, lovely tho.😁

Was working with an old.hippy type fella during covid. Was finding it increasingly difficult to get weed through my normal channels. Hippy fella pointed me in this direction and here I am nearly 4 years later
Wow! So cool to see how this community came together! Nice post ;-) For us it was a destiny - a friend who knew we had to share what we had with the world ;-) and we are grateful to be here everyday :-) Gratidão
A work colleague told me about it so I gave it a try and was pleasantly surprised and have been using LB ever since.
I'd seen a website in the news supposed to be selling weed. I'd started looking through reviews, which were mixed, but ultimately it seemed like it was a scam. Certainly at best a roll of the dice. Eventually I read a comment on a forum that said something like, "ignore all these sites and go little biggy. You can thank me later." Except I can't thank them as I've no idea where I read the comment. Certainly I should thank them as I've ordered all sorts of bits n bobs in the short time I've been a member since. Maybe I should write up my own beginners experience at some point as my mind had been blown by LB and the community here. There's loads of things I'm looking forward to trying next.
It was a dark and stormy night, the captain said to his crew gather round men gather round. 😅😂
Who still remembers Bud Brothers?
Around 2020 I started vaping to try and quit fags and when I found out about thc vapes through social media I started to make vapes with rso, I pressed rosin from flowers etc but they always clogged up the coil and I had to admit it will never work right without clean distillate. So I bought a shortpath distilling set up and wasted a lot of money and materials. My mate eventually asked why don't I just buy distillate online? I didn't want to get involved with darknet sites so I was very surprised when he said there's a clearnet site to check out.
That's where it all started. At that time only 1 or 2 vendors had distillate on the site: MJ and Bud Brothers. MJ was always out of stock so I was buying from the brothers and then the new vendor all420 who always had stock. Since then the site is flooded with distillate.
Still nice to think back to those first days on the site :)

During lockdown, my buddies locked-down their stash!
A bit of googling, and a gamble on a bag of shake from RadarBreeder, few days later it dropped through the door.
Been here ever since.
And apart from when I find myself in Rotterdam, I haven't bought from anywhere other than biggy since.

Prices lower in Rotterdam. Not seen any drunk English people there, less touristy, still plenty to see and do.
A popular online blog links to lb in the newsletter. After rifling through various pages here, I figured it looked legit and made an order. Nearly a year later and I'm never going back to a plug, ahaha.
There was some forum I found that lists all the websites that have scammed ppl out of weed online, a few people on there pointed at this being the only legit place to buy so after a few searches I couldn't find anyone saying theyve had a bad experience on here so tried it out during pandemic/lockdown and haven't bought any off the street since :)
Liberty Cap season has been a shit show in my area so had to dig through Reddit for a good Mush Plug 😅
Went into my mates yard to buy some bud, he just took my phone, created me an acc, logged in and said 'the buds nice but they still can't beat my prices' and I've never bought bud off him again. Baffles me why he put me on here but sure glad he had that dull moment.
After moving from one area to another in the UK I went from having a really good plug who I had used for years with a consistent supply of good quality weed to working my way up through street level dealers trying to find nice weed, everything I was picking up was really bad quality compared to what I used to pick up back home, so I started doing a bit of research and searching online and found some websites that seemed and I had heard where legit. I tried 2 other clear net sites that at first was okay but then the quality was inconsistent and wasn’t worth the extra premium compared to the local dealers prices. Then I stumbled upon LB I had looked at it a while ago and could have sworn it was a scam it looked too good to be true! but though fuck it what’s the worse that can happen I seen green cat’s exodus cheese and as i had not seen any cheese for a long time and it was at a reasonable price I placed a order, 3-4 days passed and I was almost certain it was a scam but one Saturday morning it turned up! Never looked back since
I truly didn't think that web searching 'buy weed online' would lead me to a place like this but here we are 🙂. Not even sure I had the VPN activated when I did it!
My dealer for 5 straight years all of a sudden retired and I’d cut all my other contracts off so was left dry for 48 hours 😰 still never tried anything too amazing here yet but love that I can finally get vapes and never have to be accused of fucking my dealer 🤣
I found out via a Reddit thread. Was a bit skeptical at first but after so many people confirming it’s legit I had no reason to believe otherwise :-)
Haha what a question. Love it. I discovered Lb through reviews . Reviews are always the champ for helping you discover more and more lol. Wich led me to check LB out and loved the wide seletion of choices and vendors to offer amazing products . Obviously not only maryjane. The hashish and other pyschadelics are superior . KING LB!
How I found LB was I was supplying ones of the highest reviewed account on LB, BUT he kept it a secret from me and did not want me to get on it, little fucking hater, oh well I'm here now and not going anywhere. He knows I'm here lol

Where is the sticky smelly weed???
Growing up in the 90s remember having really sticky/ smelly weed, everything seems dry with low terps and no stickiness or real smell. Can’t find what I want commercially… any suggestions 🙏
If it's not sticky like alot of weed nowadays it's more than likely been spun a bit in a machine or it's old stock. Even if you keep weed relatively well kept it still will go through the degredation process. Imports tend to be non sticky. Locally grown less handled, fresh stock should do the trick in most cases.
I agree with this one. Speaking from experience, it is sticky when it's fresh ie on the plant and it gets less and less sticky within the first month of drying/curing.
100% agree, have very fond memories of Northern lights, Skunk no1, Mexican Sativa and White Rino being super sticky back in the day.
Its still there... in the 1990s!

Well on a recent family break, i turned to carts cos I like a few joints through day/night, which wasn't easy. Anyway. I was pretty surprised. Ive always been one that loves the smell. This is actually what im trying to decode right now. Carts or flower. I do think it's much stronger maybe you could try that?
Or do you use tobacco on your joints kinda thing?

Carts are perfect for trips away (or, nights out) as hardly anyone has a clue that you can smoke weed in that format. A 1mL cart can easily last me a week, and that's almost constant smoking. I don't miss tobacco or joints when I'm off my face on a cart abroad. Try to get Live Resin carts if possible.
Green Cats's Cookiedawg is what you're looking for. Incredibly sticky and fresh. Would also recommend the colorado nightstalker from thedrbudz420

The reason the grass aint sticky no more is due to the setups.. most grower have switched to leds, started growing hydro and then also started using auto flowering seeds... wish they would go back to the old stool grows... hps lighting, soil based with regular seeds... this is where the stickiness is
Dont think those are the reasons.... Most growers havent switched to autoflowers, its literally impossible to take cuttings from an autoflower so your telling me they popped 100 plus seeds and filled a room?? LOL also growing in led or hydro doesnt make a difference to stickyness. Thats all down to how growers dry/cure and also its all strain dependant. Sometimes the more the thc content the more stickier the bud will be... I guess you must know alot of growers to be making such a HUGE statement.
Genetics and the cure are the only effects on stickiness i think. And when it was chopped.
I recently found a tub of a year old stuff and it was still fresh. Full plant cure

I can confirm that this is/was sticky icky, and a banging smoke. Had a generous inclusion in my last order, and smoked it all pretty quickly.
I thought it was still sticky and terpy Rux.
Out of the two, what did you prefer? Red or Lh²P? The Lh is a decent creamy Gas?
Was a banger deal really ay

I really like them both, but I think the Red Red just pips it. The Lh, however, is delicious, strong, and so sticky that I have to rub a skin or 2 over my fingers before I skin up! Superb value; would buy again.
It actually a lot cheaper to grow autoflowering seeds especially when bought in bulk. It's easier to drop a seen into soil rather than taking cuttings. Plus autofliwering seeds is a shorter grow period. If they were using regular seed the grow period for cuttings is still 3.5 months til chop time.
Everybody i know growing is using autoflowering as they don't need experience to grow... they basically grow thereselves

Auto's are difficult to master, you need alot of experience to understand the growth cycle and get everything right. Too much can effect your outcome.
Most genetics are ok, only a few strains can hit decent results.
The best trick is to have 2 rooms, veg and flower. Will get grow times down.
Decent cuttings bring your veg times down by weeks. They grow fast and get large quickly.
I think you would do better having 100 decent cuttings. Veg for 2-3 weeks then flower 100 smaller plants. You can easily get 4-8 ounces(dry) off each plant with good low stress training. Autos can be a pain and good strains can take 12 weeks to finish
That's my opinion on Autos

every autoflower seed has different traits and also flower whenever they want, its literally impossible for an established grower to flood it with autoflowers... Also how does that have anything to do with how dry/sticky a flower is??
Led's = lots more tricombs
Plants use pretty much all the light emitted from Led's so it's better for them. Hps waist electricity and the plants don't use everything emitted and they are silly hot. Double end hps are way better for light spectrum i think. Gavita 750 is a wicked bit of kit

How to stop side burn
Was just wondering how do people prevent and what solutions do people do when it comes to sideburn?
Occasional loose pocket (happens occasional 😬) on the roll and just damp down heavier en it 👍
A proper clean roll. Get that right and side burn is rarely an issue. Ensuring the joint packed down properly, with no large air gaps.
Good quality product. Finely ground. Each bit of flower varies, so does the grind it requires to smoke well.
When smoking avoid long drags. Keep puffs short to medium.
Touch up joint with a lighter when going awry to bring the burn in line.
Getting the basics right and you still get side burn.
As others have said lick the finger and dab it where there is side burn.
When holding the joint, keep the side burn on the under side.
When taking pulls keep side burn on the upper side.

jar your weed with 62% humidity packs, if you do backy and weed that should be enough providing you grind the weed. Make sure you tap down the joint propery to compact and remove loose parts of the joint.
I have noticed that topping down the joint results in a harder pull!
I like my joints a little more airy to allow flow. This is has resulted in tapping the joint and then running my fingers up the joint to loosen it back out a little bit

fair one, i dont mind a hard pull. the looseness is probaby the root cause of most of you problem with the side burning, id imagine best in your case if your bacy and weed, maybe try layering it a little. Good luck!
Yeah so I layer it already but I found that a little trick to do is grind your vaccine up aswell whilst also layering it!
Fucks up the grinder overtime really because of the baccie
And end up having more baccie in the spilff but leaves me with a good smoke!

Mix.your backy and herb in the grinder lid or in a small ramekin or bowl before rolling and then you should find this happening a lot less, also 'tapping' the doobie to organise the contents will slightly shorten the j but also help prevent this
Imo, if its packed correctly I never get sideburn.
Note if your mixing with baccie though. Do a smaller layer of baccie first, layer the weed, then another small layer of bacci on top. That solved any side burn issues I had when I smoked mixes

I that one distylla! I was think more along the lines of prevention more than anything!
Mixture of both really, chip to save on smoke till next harvest and pure to relax the nerve ends asap!
I use to be cursed for side burning every role
I just do nice tapping on the biff idk how to explain it but it gets it compact to where it needs to be compact
Or just blow on the opposite side to get it even
Or just light the other side to make it even
I’ll try the licky licky tactic

Exactly as Zapgaz says - little dab of saliva just at the head of the fast burn. Also, turn the bifter so the slow burning bit is at the top. I'm the habit of doing both of these without really thinking about it every few draws just to maintain an even burn.
Yeah so I find putting the slow burning bit at the top so it over hangs burns off. I just although scientifically heat rises and show it should sort the side burn out if the heat is rising into it!
Might be just too munched and smoked out I dunno!

Don't use tobacco. Even grind. Tap it down, but not too much.
If you do use tobacco, mix it good.
Better yet, get a herb vape 😁

My method is that I don't roll the spliff tight, it's more that I roll a perfect cone that the weed sits in. Then several hard taps on the table. I lose a centimetre from the top of the spliff, but I can't remember the last time I had side burn. I also use actitube charcoal filters, so never get roach ick, and it's a smoother smoke.
Pack it tight and light it right!
Air pockets will allow the paper to burn down on the side if that happens bit of saliva to let the other side catch up.
Light it up carefully, approach the flame perpendicular and don't push the joint in the flame but gently hold it a close as possible whilest taking draws. Think of it like lighting up a cigar.

Don't twist the end of the joint after making it,
Since I stopped doing that
Its made such a difference ✌️

Pack it tightly , and at the top . So no weed is showing . and then pierce it down the middle with a pin that will go all the way to the filter .
This way the smoke will have somewhere to go and burn evenly .

Im usually using a safety razor and beard trimmer combo. And a little shaving foam.
When you backstrap / reverse roll you virtually never get side burn. It takes a short while to learn but is worth it.
If I do get some side burn I usually lick my finger and moisten that side of the joint with it so it evens up.

Smoke mostly alone so not as controversial 😆
Lick finger and treat the affected area as required for the burn error line. Slow it, small tokes to even up
Best to LB

Really good weed doesn't sideburn if all the different factors are lined up. It has to be not to dry,definitely not still damp or quicky cured and, in my largely overrated opinion, picked apart by fingers not ground down by a grinder. Grinders dust up your weed to much and it burns at a slower speed. When you pick it into its natural bits n bobs it seems to burn way better. Maybe it's just me. We all have our little rituals 😶🌫️
I only ever had a problem with it when I bought poor quality weed. I think it comes down to being good at rolling and having good weed.
I do layers, especially with hash. For hash, I'll do a layer of tobacco and middle layer of hash and then a bit more tobacco so the hash is in the middle of the joint.
If it's weed, I'll do the same, but the other way around....start with a layer of weed, then a bit of tobacco and then another layer of weed so the tobacco is in the middle of the joint.

Crafty plus vs Mighty plus
Any thoughts if there is any benefits having the mighty plus over the crafty plus if only using for night time vapes?
Had a 2nd hand crafty which I enjoyed before the battery died before I moved on to the Arizer solo 2.
Currently I'm loving the Solo 2 with bubble hash and wpa.
...... but just bought a crafty plus with only 5 hrs use for much cheapness which I know I'm gonna enjoy 😉
Any ways question is .... should I try and flip the nearly new crafty plus and try and get a mighty plus or stay safe and keep the crafty?
Been burnt once already buying a 2nd hand vape

...... but just bought a crafty plus with only 5 hrs use for much cheapness which I know I'm gonna enjoy 😉
Any ways question is .... should I try and flip the nearly new crafty plus and try and get a mighty plus or stay safe and keep the crafty?
Been burnt once already buying a 2nd hand vape
The only real difference is the battery life from the double pack in the Mighty. If you are only using from home then the Crafty does the same job…
I thought the mighty plus had temp adjustment on the device whereas the crafty is app controlled. Is that not right?
Will you always feel a sense of regret about not getting the most money for the Crafty+ to put towards the Mighty+ at a later date if you don't do it now?
Will you be happy with the Crafty+ in the interim, potentially, and are happy to use it now and maybe sell it and get a Mighty+ in the future?
I had a great deal on a Mighty+ so went straight for that after trying a mate's Mighty, so beyond general questions I'd be asking myself before buying I can't help with any comparison.

Have 2 Arizers Solo2 and desktop Arizer xq2, very low maintenance, amazing durability, good quality vapor.
Going to buy soon new Arizer Solo3 V2 is tick all boxes for me.

IVE BEEN SCAMMED FROM THIS SHAM.OF A VENDOUR
Order placed took few days to.arrived even tipped them.10 pounds,4 days after ordering I received a bag with two pot for extracts so other pack expecting half bar of hash an 3 oz zushi (I k ew by size wasn't all there it was 3 envelopes within each other and had 10 straps of PILLS(FAKE XANAX,LIKE VALUIM)BO HADH NO 3 OZ AND THEYBARE SAYING THERE WAS TWO ENVOPLES ONE EXTRACTS AND ONE FLOWER AN HASH,LIARS AN ON FURTHER INSPECTION THE EXTRACTS WERE FAKE BLOODY BROWN SUGAR WITH TERPS AND LITLARY YELLOW BITS PLASTIC IN O THE OTHER .NOW IM BEING CALLED LIAR LOOKINGMF FOR A DREE PACK,IVE HAD VERY NEAR 100 ORDERS SINCE APRIL.LAST YEAR NEVER KNE PROBLEM FROM NOT RECEVING ANY PARCELS ALWAYS BEEN HAPPY NO DISPUTES THEN THIS SHIT.MY HEAD CANT STOP THINKING ABOUT IT ANNUTS A WEE TILL I CAN OPEN DISPUTE BUT ILL JUST HAVE TO FOLLOW THE PROCESS AN HOPE TRANSAXE OR ESCROW SEE THROUGH THEM,IVE NO ACTUAL PROOF WHAT THEY SENT ME BUT DO THE PARCEKS RECORD THE WEIGHG AS IVE KEPT THEM SO JF THEY DO UTLL SHOW IT WASNT CORRE G WEIGHG FOR ITEMS I GOT?I DONT NO,BAD CRACK AN THEY NEED KICKED OUT, SORRY FOR THE RANT JUST HEADS BUST OVER IT ALL.SHAME ON YOU TSF JOKE OF A VENDOUR 🤡🤡🤡
This is abit worrying as I've seen someone say this before about a month and a half ago, but I can only speak on my experiences with the vendor, as I can't honestly say a bad word about them, albeit I didn't order a massive amount I think the most I've ordered off then is 2 z , but I've had multiple orders off them maybe 10+ and no problems everything, I even took a risk when I initially made my first order as they only had like 25 sales, anyhow I just find this intriguing as all my parcels have come correct, and I would say the general consensus is that the majority off people commend their service, 500 reviews in a few months says alot, so as I say it's very very intriguing, sorry you had to deal with this

So am I bro and I don't uderstand it, This was also my first ever dispute and it was 600/700pound so only can assume they got greedy an was a one off but it happend, with the amount of buys I've had (well over 100) in only one an a half year and I've had larger orders than that an never a complaint,but no way I could leave that happen especially when it was pills they had cheek to send, again don't u derstand why they done that either(send me pills i mean)It was a few month ago now this happend so nothing has happend since and it's still only dispute I have had.Thanks Rasta Mouse 👍
Dispute and you'll get 100% refund if you've had 100 orders with no disputes previously.
By tip do you mean you sent extra Bitcoin to the littlebiggy order address?
When you overpay here, the extra goes to the payment processor, not the vendor.
So Transaxe will send you the 10 back too if you ask them :)

Thanks for your help mate.So glad they didn't get my money lol,ANYONE WHO SEES THIS AVOIND "THE SPLIFF FELLAS" Read above to see why,100% gen
Thats good to no so ill get so.ething back at least?It still says 50+ orders but I no its jot to be within next 5 orders it'll be over 100 and that's orders not items I've spent over 20k maney 25k since I joined in April last year 2024,no disputes or under 10/10 scores, I swear to you (not that it matters but I'm not at it an loeing I've got money and I'm sitting woth beaf minimum of bud and some edibles.Dispute can be opend on 2q or 22nd so 2 or 3 days.How long does it take to hear back from the borg or person is it?I wondered an thoughtbshurley I can't say it's for bud an hash to transaxe?lol.so I take it its a bot?I appreciate your help man and I'll let you no how I get on,Do I have to write exactly what happend or just the basics like they sent fake item?or does it ask for exact details of ask what the items were that im missing an do i.just say half a bar and 3 oz an half oz extracts?etc? and do they no about the weed etc?or all automated?sorry for the questions bro thanks
Damn bro you're a baller, please proceed to buy with my ref link 😂😂
"16 days after a dispute starts it is auto-settled using reputation data from both parties.
the buyer then has 12 days to provide a refund address."
With you having so much orders and it being a new vendor I'm pretty confident you'll get almost all of it back.
Transaxe won't care what it's for and they aren't bots, only the dispute sequence is settled by a bot essentially.
You will only need to press the button, input from either parties doesn't matter as it's not provable, anyone can falsify things, so it's just based on 'reputational data', you have good reputational data because you are a long term buyer and a high roller clearly lol.
Enjoy bud, yeah let me know how it goes.
You can read more about the dispute process through the link I have attached.

Good man ,Budzinho, great advice an has let some of the stress go lol,I no you'll no care but genuinely they cheeky fuckers sent me they street fake xanax pills 10 packs!not for me bro,See money aside I just want people to no what "THE SPLIFF FELLAS" are all about, Unless the regular post man or somewhere on route they switched fake goods(extracts and pills thet aren't even on the page for sale,it's all to make me look bad but from what your saying it won't matter?,the dispute window opens either tomorow or day after but I'll be right on it, id bought a 10g bit hash from them before this an it was spot on ,no problem,so must been to tempting cos bigger buy for them which was 3 oz zushi and half bar hash and 14 gram extracts.I was all excited thinking yes my hash n bud n extracts all happy when got post an that's what I am was hit with so I am realy pissed off..,Anyway bro thankyou,and I don't no about baller lol, just love my smoke an lot people round me too lol 😉😂 thanks again 👍🫡

Hi MedMunchies
What happened to the previous comp you ran?
The one called "Giveaway Alert" with the two police car lights in the subject line?
You asked people to guess what would be the price of BTC on the 5th of Oct 13:00pm UK time - closest guess wins and I was the only one to take part.
I followed up asking if the winners had been announced but didn't hear back from you.

Message to my fellow Biggas MedMunchies got in touch via a DM and told me that I was the winner having been the only one taking part.

Mega Thanks to MedMunchies!

FRESH BATCH TOP QUALITY FOR CHEAP 25/10/25!! 🐶 🇬🇧
Tried and tested by my self this is a a top quality dawg at a great price don’t miss out!!
I've had this a few times previously. Actually a really enjoyable smoke for the price. My favourite cheapie at the min though has probably been your red kush or your cherry.
always wipes me out cookie dawg,
if id had to choose one strain to smoke out of them all, just to get by one one strain, id choose cookies and cream, most blissful stone ever.
id say cookie dawg is a lesser version of the cookies and cream but very enjoyable and strong.

I'd probably go for a mimosa punch or Superboof or something orangey. If I was stuck with one strain forever it's gotta be an orange bud.
I noticed your menu had exploded just recently and there's loads of bits I want to try but I'm at the wrong end of my wallet. I'll definitely have to have some of the mimosa punch though. I can't resist an orange bud.
WooHoo!! Any chance we could get a picture of the new batch please GC, I'm chomping at the bit for a nice bit of dawg :-) Gutted I ordered the other day, now I'll have to wait till next week.
Cheers

Thank you so much :-) You really are the best kitty, honestly though I really appreciate this bro, will definitely be ordering next week.

Thoughts, View's and criticism
Can anyone that has purchased any of my latest Strains please give me their thoughts to this please?!?
This is the only person that I missed 2 maybe 3 of there massages and the only person that has had even the slightest negative opinion on my products.
I can understand that the Shake may of had a Muted taste as it's Shake and old but everything else was fresh.
Thoughts-
1/2 oz x 3: Spritz, Red Red Wine & Cherrytini
1 oz x 1: LH2P popcorn/shake
Spritz had an okay smell - I could smell the Mimosa. But the taste was very muted.
Red Red Wine had a very faint smell but only after grinding. Taste was very muted.
Cherrytini had no smell and taste was very muted. Also wouldn't grind properly and kept clumping together.
LH2P popcorn buds had some smell but taste was very muted. The trim was unusable and tasted like stale perfume (could also taste it in the bubble hash sample).

I've only had the spritz but I don't agree about the muted terps. Smells nice (agreed about the mimosa vibes), tastes nice, has a proper nice effect and is absolutely coated in full trichomes so you can tell it's been handled with care and not been fucked with. The smell after grinding is perfection. I think a lot of people now are smoking & trying bud that has sprayed terps and they're getting used to the intensity of flavour from that. You could be the best grower in the world and find it nearly impossible to grow bud that smells and tastes like some of these sprayed bits. All I know is the spritz is some fire and I can't wait to try more of your offerings. Gonna leave a proper in depth review later on
Cheers Limezkittle.
Ive never tried that sprayed weed and hope i never do.
As a KiG rule from here on out, all in depth reviews will receive a bonus 2gram bubble hash appreciation lump.
I'll add it to the listing now so people know.
Who ever takes up the offer owes it to you LimeZkittle dude

Fair play to you mate, natural weed all the way. That's nice of you as well, some lucky individuals gonna properly enjoy that. Just about to have a smoke and write my little review
Can you comment on how the terps/flavour come through in comparison to some of the big guys in the game like sourco, kushler, lux cannabis, jolly good genetics. I have had some nice bud from KIG in the past but it doesn't compare to some of these (no offence intended)
I have had some unreal flavours come through which would coat your mouth in a way you can feel it and the taste lingers, but i wouldnt know if it was sprayed, just that it was by these guys who have a big reputation in the scene. Haven't had anything from the growers on LB compare to them lot I have listed but granted they are a lot more expensive than kig / lb grow vendors

I don't think it's too far off man. Most of the big top shelf producers have grown dozens of seeds of just 1 strain to find their crown jewel pheno then spent 6 months perfecting the feed schedule and another 2 to 3 months curing the buds so it's hard to compare something like that to a homegrow operation, but what I will say is that the quality to price ratio it's fantastic and on a scale of all weed I'd give the taste an 8.5/10. I know if you see an 8.5 rating on an item here you're probably running the other way but I mean it on a proper scale of 0 being tastes like pondscum and a 10 being the best weed I've tasted in my life so an 8.5 is a massive compliment. I wouldn't say the spritz coats your mouth as strongly as some strains but the taste doesn't come across muted in any way and it does linger. Some buds on the market are a bit harsh, taste a bit green or don't seem clean but this spritz is a real clean moreish smoke
No offence taken at all dude.
If I had the time I could probably do alot better but most of the time the plants have to fend for themselves.
You should try my Spritz Skaygee, you might like it

Looks like another vendor trying to cause you trouble to me.
How can he say your Cherrytini was muted. If I open my box the whole house stinks to high heven

I'm actually smoking the exact same weed as he received as it was near the start and I filled all my medical tubs with them.
Doubt he is a vendor as he was very quick to send me his address for a reship

Not to be a kiss arse and I’m not way affiliated other than being a happy customer but I’ve honestly enjoyed every strain I’ve had from you. My friends have too. Some of the strains may not have kick your face terps but are always a very enjoyable smoke. I only ever pick to roll and it’s literally hashfingers everytime. Just shared a blunt of spritz with my pal and we’re currently walking the pup having a ball. Fired up another of the peach and that’s lovely too, no complaints at all.
Not to sound like a dick but sometimes there’s people that just don’t know what proper weed is. There’s so much stuff nowadays that’s sprayed with shit or messed with somehow and they get used to that. Anyways it just means there’s more for sale to the people like me that buzz when I see a new listing.
And tbh anybody complaining about shake doesn’t really have a leg to stand on in general, it’s exactly what it is. If I ever was to get some for some reason I’d only trust kig

Couldn’t echo this more always been a pleasure to deal with KIG top gent indeed. He is a one man band who produces some of the best natural Uk flower you can get imo. Another more than happy customer who can only speak of there own experience the shake can be understood to be a bit lacking but as for the bud never a doubt always top drawer.
We all have different tastes and opinions but the reviews and return customers speak volumes here ✌🏻

Your popcorn got me through last month and was great for the price. Had a couple of batches from you and both been very good for the price. Buds on the other hand are outstanding.
I thought the spritz was lovely, as was the hash. The spritz was a nice complex orangey loveliness. Was perfectly done. Can't comment on the other strains / shake but the Spritz was a winner for me.
The Red Red Wine I had certainly hit the spot and went down well with friends we smoke with. The Cherrytini sample we really enjoyed, so much so that I'm currently hounding the vendor over more ha
I’ve tried the Spritz, Cherrytini and LH2P and think they’re all great, good flavour on each and smoke well. Always keen to grab some of KiGs flowers when they come up and never been disappointed.
Pic of the Cherrytini below, my favorite of the 3 cos just love that flavor. LH2P is probably the sexiest to look at if you like sparkles & the bubble hash is lush.
Keep up the good work!

This is one of the messages I missed from the old guy.
How do you go from this to full dispute??
HOMBRE_7 07 Sep 21:38 UTC
Hey mate. No, it definitely wasn't Spritz nor any of the others (Red Red, Cherrytini, LH2P) that you sent me. Whatever it was, it was completely off the charts in smell and taste and I would love to get more of it!
To be real honest with you though, I'm having a couple of small issues with some of the order. Don't get me wrong, they are all super-coated, look amazing and get me very nicely baked, but having a few small issues nonetheless. The Cherrytini is quite moist inside and really clumps together and feels a bit damp when I try to grind it, so I'm trying to dry that out a bit before trying it again. The first joint of it was okay on the inhale but not great on the exhale. Hopefully better when a bit drier. The Red Red looks absolutely phenomenal (totally one of the best looking buds I've seen all year), but I'm getting very little smell or taste from it, which is a bit heart-breaking compared to how she looks. Spritz is a bit more smelly/tasty and I do really like the taste/smell of the LH2P. I think you were right about it being the strain I was searching for from last time. I did prefer the previous batch, but I had medium/large buds then compared to popcorn this time, which might be the difference.
I really hope you don't take my critique too much to heart, mate. I know you work super hard and produce some crazy good weed. Maybe a couple of these strains are just not for me.
What others do you have in stock?

This will be my only reply, unless anyone wants to see proof/screenshots.
"How do you go from this to full dispute??"
Quite simple. You didn't reply to ANY of my messages, over a 3-week period, telling you of my issues with a $500+ order. It was the last day to dispute, so I did. Then you magically messaged me right away saying:
"I did make up a replacement to be sent out today for you but I guess I'll save it as your disputing. No worries man."
And then a follow up message which included the following:
"I cant send anything out today past 11:30ish
Shout me if you do want me to send you this to hopefully land tomorrow.
Least I can do mate."
So I (foolishly) gave you my details, only for you to send me a message containing the following subtle threat:
"You have given me all I need my end.
Tempted to come and see what you **** people are upto tbh, cause the weed from **** must be out of this world."
The blanking out is mine for privacy reasons.
You haven't sent anything and the only thing I've "given you" is a name and address, so my fellow Biggas can come to their own conclusions about what you were implying with that message.
"How do you go from this to full dispute??"
Quite simple. You didn't reply to ANY of my messages, over a 3-week period, telling you of my issues with a $500+ order. It was the last day to dispute, so I did. Then you magically messaged me right away saying:
"I did make up a replacement to be sent out today for you but I guess I'll save it as your disputing. No worries man."
And then a follow up message which included the following:
"I cant send anything out today past 11:30ish
Shout me if you do want me to send you this to hopefully land tomorrow.
Least I can do mate."
So I (foolishly) gave you my details, only for you to send me a message containing the following subtle threat:
"You have given me all I need my end.
Tempted to come and see what you **** people are upto tbh, cause the weed from **** must be out of this world."
The blanking out is mine for privacy reasons.

Let's not row like children dude.
Your clearly upset and like I've said I understand. But to say I've sent you 4 sub par standard products is for the sheep.
Add all the screen shots you fancy please if that helps in any way.
Blanking out the two words you need to make the joke isn't a joke pal
I should hold a competition to guess the two words

1000 Reviews Smoketober Giveaway
Thank you everyone for making this happen. I have passed 1k in orders a couple weeks ago but the reviews are just now caught up.
I wanted to give something back to the community so I decided to top up every order for the rest of this October, let's call it "Smoketober".
This week (13/10/25 - 19/10/25) all orders will be getting free hash and next week will be something else :)
Also any bigga who can guess the 6 strains in the photo correctly will win the remaining 14g of Skywalker OG. This is the strongest strain I have. Not yet added to the menu due to low stock and high demand. New batch currently drying/curing so not that long before more will be available.

To be fair there's only 2 that might be somewhat though to guess but if i give any clues it becomes super easy :)
I'll be honest tho I was a little worried when I saw your post because I did tell you the new flavours in our most recent chat so I'm glad you forgot about that cause I felt like that would have been an unfair win lol

Damnit. If I'd spent half the time looking at my messages as I did looking at the photo I'd have won. Trouble with being a stoner. If anyone does guess it it'll be the most deserved win in LB history.
You make it sound impossible so here's an early clue :)
Anyone who bought my prerolls can guess the green tag easily, the remaining one is not a hard one.

Just curious guys, will it be a reveal at the end of the week or will it open up for 2nd guesses? Seeing how close it is with recent comments is killing me 😂
I'm not sure if I should roll it over to next week or just do a reveal since it's no longer on the wall it's unlikely to get many more guesses.
I get you. Excited to find out either way, great way to run a comp imo!
Also, id been so focused on the comp i didnt notice the free hash offer, would it be possible to pay that forward to another lucky bigga instead of receiving it myself in my order at all?

Good guess but still 2 off my friend.
Here's another hint:
I use green tag for 2 strains for the prerolls. One of those strains is the outdoor and there's no more of that growing. The other one is the same strain as the green tag in the photo.

Problem 1:
Sending funds to previous littlebiggy order's address.
Solution:
Message Transaxe Support here:
https://littlebiggy.net/link/sfdZgU
Give them the Bitcoin address that you sent your funds to and they will sort it out.
Problem 2:
Ordering whilst logged out.
Solution:
If you are using a browser that logs your history then find the order page at transaxe.com in your history > click on the Order ID > log in.
If your browser doesn't log history again message Transaxe Support here:
https://littlebiggy.net/link/sfdZgU
Problem 3:
Overpaying/underpaying.
Solution:
For underpaying payments within 2.9% are considered paid invoices, so you may not even need to send anything more, if it's not within the 2.9% then obviously you need to send more.
For overpaying again, find the address you sent your Bitcoin to and message Transaxe Support with it here:
https://littlebiggy.net/link/sfdZgU
Keep in mind that when you overpay you are not tipping the vendor, any excess goes to the payment processor not the vendor.

I've often wondered, and I've never seen it answered anywhere - can you pay an order from more than one wallet so long as you end up depositing the correct amount? IE pay 90% from wallet A and the remaining 10% from wallet B? This would have been handy a number of times.

Static Hash? Is it just a Gimmick?
Hey guys!
What's your thoughts on 'static' hash?
Whilest I do agree that plastic has static charge and it attracts trichomes but at the same time it does also attract lighter plant material ie.: trim, vacuum packing trim is a little challenging due to the static charge that make the trim stick to the bags making it impossible to seal the bags so that there is no trim on the outside of the bag.
In the past I have also been suggesting the use of small plastic blender for grinding your weed because you can have your own static hash over time as the trichomes build up on the side of the plastic jug. This will also collect a bit of plant material but mostly will be static kief/hash.
All that said I watched a few videos of people making static hash and I cannot see what's the point of it other than playing with their kief like kids play with fine sand. I mean they dry sift the kief to like 90micron and then drag a glove or other plastic through that and collect the kief again that way. I just can't see it being any different from already sifted kief other than the fact they loose more in the process giving them less yield in the end.
Here's a photo of some 150 micron kief I got recently. I could drag a plastic glove and collect the whole thing over time and can then call it static hash?
If I collect the trim the same way then I can call it static trim? 😂
Have you tried static hash before and was it any better than just normal dry sift? Did it cost more? Is it worth it?

That's the colour of fresh dry sift kief.
It looks nice what's wpff stand for?

its not kief. its only trichome heads. 🤣 colour has nothing to do with freshness. i have some dark wpff thats tastier than the light stuff.

Colour has everything to do with freshness look it up mate. Those heads will turn dark when exposed to heat and over time due to oxidisation.
This is cured Tropi Orange. Based on your theory, please explaining the coloring of this. It also arrived really dark before it was cured.
Also nothing is exposed to heat. Its kept in a fridge at 17 degrees all year round. The process of making the static is done in a cold room. Trichomes are too sensitive to extract at room temp.

It's not my theory, it's a well known fact.
You didn't bother explaining what wpff stands for I had to look it up yet you expecting me to explain a much more complex chemical reaction that is well known in the cannabis scene.
I have been working with fresh harvested weed for the past decade. It's very simple fresh thricomes are bright and the older they get the darker they turn as they degrade due to oxidisation. That's why clean THC distillate turn dark over time. There's no arguing about this, it's a fact. That's the point of "WPFF - Whole Plant Fresh Frozen"
I'm not going to say anything about your product but the colours speak for themselves.

Maybe you should've asked what it is, if you wanted an explanation on what its function is and not what the abbreviation stands for.

Honestly been wondering the same myself. It seems to be quite a popular "premium" product on this site, but AFAIK the only difference is total avoidance of solvents via using magnets instead... Right?
So essentially it's the equivalent of finer filtered hash I think?
I guess that would explain the price point and strength difference but I'm no expert

In theory the trichomes react differently to a static charge than plant matter. The way hair is attracted to a balloon when you rub it. The electro static machines look pretty convincing on YouTube. The static hash I've had has been decent but as TGS say WPFF is where the action is at. That'll knock yer socks off.
In practice it's all the same, dry ground up plant material, trim, trichomes they all get statically attracted to whatever material you're using. Same as you mentioned the hair attracted to a balloon.
Not sure about machines if different frequencies pick up different weights but pretty skeptical without looking it up further.
I have been cold curing my 150 micron, it's as fresh frozen as it gets. I just can't hold stock for long enough to see what they look like 3-4 months cured but people like it and that's enough for me :)
As in "whole plant" part is also bit of a gimmick. Freezing all the stalks and leaves I seriously doubt as there's no added benefits from doing that.

The WPFF frozen hash will likely be one of the strongest things you'll ever smoke. The name maybe misleading I guess but the hash you get is not a gimmick.
The electro static machines look incredible. But to your point the process is run repeatedly on the same material as it will only filter so much per run. Ultimately though it does separate trichomes from plant material.

It cannot possibly be stronger than the starting material. THC doesn't just multiply during the cold cure it will be the same strength. The point of fresh frozen is to preserve the terps at their "peak". Hash that's been decarbed/heat pressed will loose most of the terps and same goes for "older" stuff.
It can be purer than the starting materials though if your method is good and only takes the frozen trichome heads. The people who make artisan hash like piatella also look for strains where the trichomes are a certain shape specifically with the plan to remove mostly heads. Whereas the starting material includes malformed / small trichomes, stalks and other plant material, the hash should be mostly heads so is stronger as you're only smoking the high quality stoning bit. Buy some off someone like The Hash Collective and see how it is. Proof will be in the pudding.
If strength would be the goal then it won't get any stronger than pure THC distillate. The point of wpff is to preserve the terps at their best. I read up on it and it's just cold curing the fresh frozen hash in a vacuum. I tried it, people love it. Mine was only cured for about a month due to high demand. I doubt any seller could provide anything more fresh than what I have straigth from the source.
Strength isn't the only goal else it'd taste like crap and may as well be made in a lab. But it's about preserving just the perfect trichomes. Some of that is strain selection as mentioned. It is however stronger than the bud. I could argue it all day but best way is to try it. Pepsi challenge it against your bit. Have you had the proper piatella - the effect is unreal. It hits you immediately. It's not my favourite thing to smoke at all but I can see why people pay lots for it. It's a markedly different effect.
It's really about flavour and texture, the strength will be dependent on the thc levels of the strain used:
"Piatella is a type of artisan hash made from fresh frozen bubble hash that undergoes a long cold curing process, resulting in a flavorful and potent cannabis concentrate. It is known for its unique texture and high terpene content, making it popular among cannabis enthusiasts."

Looks pretty dark, must have been already aged when started curing. Any before photos?
I'm tempted trying this cold cure but not sure if worth the time.

How is it darker before and brighter after curing lol Surely not the same stuff. This dark hash is either very old or have been heat pressed like my soft hash
You sell home made products. You know nothing about artisenal hash. Get your hands on some first and then start opening your mouth. You sound ignorant.
I have recently tried Cannabis Cannabis Home made Hash and it is a really good product @ $50 a Q.
I have more respect for them producing this than some fancy bollocks overpriced artisanal boutique wank hash

I was polite with my response. I dont need to promote anything, the people do that themselves.
It wasn't polite. I asked how it's darker and you cannot explain it so you started attacking me for selling homemade products. That is exactly what artisan hash is, small batch not on large scale like your commercial that you call artisan lol.
The science behind is out there don't have to take my word for it just look it up.
The dark hash you got most likely bee sitting on the shelves for like a year or 2 and that's how they turned black like that.

Okay, buddy. You know best. That's why I'm out of stock on literally everything, because it sits there for 2 years.
You don't seem to understand how it works. You asked me why it's dark when you received it. It is because it's been overstock on someones shelf for long before they sold it to you at a cheap price. That's why they arrive dark when you get them. It doesn't mean they are bad at all just old.
Bro. I am a partner in the farm that it comes from. Stop presuming. Its fresh.
I have all different colors. It literally means nothing. Blonde, Dark, Purple.
Either way, I wasnt trying to disrespect you. Wish you nothin but the best

You asked me to explain the colour. That's my best guess. I'm all ears if you got a better explaination for it.
It could be many things. Could be down to the treatment of the material processed too.
Like nug runs and trim runs.

Smell is still very strong and the colour is also still very bright.

Static is simply the dry sift version of fresh frozen bubble hash.
It's the cleanest most pure version of dry extraction.
It's been completely bastardized by the amount of liars selling standard screen filtered as 'static'.
When done correctly it's sensational but, the prices are ridiculous also so I steer well clear of it because the likelihood of you actually getting what is described with hash these days is all but impossible.

Fresh frozen (also used for making live resin) I feel like another gimmick...Freeze the buds 'live' (right after harvest) then extract the trichs. Bubble hash as far as I remember refers to ice water extracted hash from the finest micron bag that is just kief extracted with ice water instead dry sifting but for how long those 'live' trichs stay alive? They also start 'aging' oxidising as soon as they processed so by the time it gets to the consumer is it still 'live'?
Exactly this these 'new' processes seem to be purely for achieving the highest tested thc percentage in a lab test.
If you look at classic hashish from the middle east and north Africa- it's hung dry for 1 year sometimes 2 years post harvest before dry sifting.
Basically it would appear a lot of university kids doing chemistry got involved in the cannabis extract market and its now a complete shit show.
Much of the hash available on LB is either good but overpriced or just straight crap.

And the finest afghan kief was buried in pig skins for a year before being pressed into the finest hash. Apparently.....
All solventless methods use 200 - 60 micron screens for filtering but is it worth seperating the different size heads once it's down to 120-100micron there's likely little to no plant material left in there so what's the point further filtering out the smaller heads?
It’s definitely worth separating the different grades. Hopefully all the plant material will have been collected in the 180 bag. It doesn’t necessarily get better the finer you go. Usually the top grade is in the 73 bag, this is the size of the most ripe, most potent, most tasty resin heads. Sometimes a sative plant will have finer resin heads and the top grade can be found in the 45 bag. The 25 bag has all the unripe, tiny, or broken glands, along with the sticks the resin head sits on.
Fresh frozen will increase the flavour and reduce plant contamination, is also useful for removing resin. As is already frozen. I would say less total harvest though.
My understanding of static, could be wrong. Is that Afghan farmers used it to bypass the multiple sieve process, reducing labour time but keeping high quality, refined by western weed nerds. Great product. Not as good as 73 micron bubblehash though.

I don't see the point to seperate further than 150micron. Do the different size heads give a different high or is it just the taste? At 150 all the goodness is there but what makes 75 bag the top grade? What does it still removing from the 150 batch? At 150 it will all be cannabinoids terps, thc, cbd etc.
How much more does it worth to have them at seperate grades rather than just one product that have all the grades in it?
How much more does it worth to have them at seperate grades rather than just one product that have all the grades in it?
It’s because the 73 most closely matches the size of a resin gland at peak potency. The smaller less ripe/potent glands will pass through onto the next size, whilst other larger stuff such as the stalks (which is still resin just nowhere near as potent) will be caught in the bags above. The resulting product is usually full melt bubble hash. I personally think it’s worth the extra hassle, it’s definitely stronger. I would usually combine the other grades anyway. Maybe on a second run I would collect it all together.
Fair enough still confusing tho, you just said you would usually combine the other grades anyway so what's the point seperating in the first place?
Also how could the 73 be stronger when it's stripped from all the other grades that would otherwise add more strength when combined?
Also how could the 73 be stronger when it's stripped from all the other grades that would otherwise add more strength when combined?
The point is to isolate the most potent and tasty part of the plant. Most stuff on the market is a blend of usually 120 - 70 microns. The other grades would just ruin the quality. And would probably be used in edibles, or low grade. I’d combine what’s left after extracting the 73 because I just feel they’re not really worth keeping seperate. But extracted all together the 73 would make up nearly half the yield anyway (if grown well) So all together still a good smoke, just diluted down.
I think it's the opposite when combined.
If you say 73 is the strongest the others are marginally weaker. Let's give the strenght a simple score between 1-5. So 73 micron is 5 and let's assume 2 other sizes 120 and 90 that both could be around 3 strength.
Now add them together and you get a strength of 11 (5+3+3) so the combined product should be stronger and more potent than the seperated grade by themself.

i don't think so . . . . if you're combining stronger grades with weaker grades, the weaker grades dilute the stronger grades.
by your measure, combining a strength 5 with a strength 3 would give you a strength 4, or thereabouts.

At this level you only have a very little difference between grades so my numbers are oversimplified with too large gap between the figures
But 11/3 = 3.6 otherwise you could keep adding 1’s and it would still keep getting stronger. If you had a pint of 100% alcohol and a pint of 0% alcohol, combine the 2 you’d have 2 pints of 50% alcohol
Probably oversimplified it and gave too large gap between the numbers.
With alcohol you have only alcohol % but there's a lot more than just THC in the kief and also the difference in % would be minimal between different micron sizes. If you wanted to compare to alcohol a more accurate number would be adding a pint of 6% guiness to a pint of 6.5% guiness extra (if there's such).

I get what you’re saying. Yes, with the 90 and 120 the difference is minimal. Between say 180 to 25 the difference is substantial. You just can’t get top grade by adding the inferior grades
I don't agree that the smaller the better. Even you said in your previous comment that less than 73 would mostly be broken and or immature heads and stalks. Any larger grade up to 120-150ish will have more complete large and mature heads all from the same strain with the same thc levels.
Sorry, I meant by adding the 120 and 90 to the 73 the difference would be minimal, but adding a 180 or 25 to the 73 would make a significant difference. To thc levels, at least
The smaller bags that have broken but mature heads and stalks would contain the same amount of thc as the ones in the 73 and same goes for the higher micron bags that will have larger heads that are just as mature as the 73 ones
Oxidisadion is always going to occur at one point. Its a very arduous process that really only increases quality by preserving terpenes. A serious home grower who is into squishing and has a home rosin press can enjoy this experience every day for little money. (Or a hugely comparable experience at least)
Terpene rich, solventless, potent & pure.
Wpff gains nothing that I can see thats better than rosin.
Even the temperature difference between the two processes is subjective if youre gonna nuke that shizzle anyway. No?

If you had 1kg of dry sift to split between you and another person, would you be happy for them to use static techniques to select their half 🤔
Sure the static will attract larger bits aswell as smaller ones. I'd be annoyed tho that my half would be exposed to air for long time whilest it's being done plus the friction caused by the techniques would make my half loose some terps so I wouldn't say I'd be over the moon happy.
TheGoodStuff's Gush Mintz static is some of the finest solids I've smoked, worth every penny!
It is a gimmick really. Its really for small batch artisanal production, and even then the amount of attention spent will only increase the quality a tiny percentage because the hash is already good. Static cleaning pioneered its way in the cannabis cup scene with strain producers trying to one up on other breeders and make perfect hash. Truly the cleanest hash a lot of times is ice/iceolator/bubble bag. I dont think this is soley due to the way the trichomes are seperated and sorted. I believe that water plays a big part in cleaning the hash. All cannabis plants are sticky as fuck. Imagine just how much dust and airborne dirt has an opportunity to stick to it in its life. Water cured bud is also a really clean trippy buzz. When I grow plants I pay as much attention to carbon filtering air in as I do out. Now THAT makes a huge difference. Why is it ok to grind a bud that is %80 plant matter yet we are baulking at the sight of %2 plant matter in hash? A lot has been lost as traditional drysift landrace hashes disappear. Full spectrum hash made from males and females, seeded or not, grown in the sun and beaten over the zero zero screen in the hills of Chefchouen are sadly slipping away from the uk scene. The hash scene in spain is mad. Even the canaries is fantastic with spanish modern pollems and import hassans all over the place. The uk seems to be struggling. The trouble with all this piatella nonsense is that folks will all too easily make a formula replica with terps and dodgy distillate.
Have worldwide landrace hashes got popular in the us or something. Where has it all gone?

That piatella sounds simple enough to make and test but at the end of the day it is the same kief processed into a different consistency. The purest form of hash must be the unprocessed kief.
hash is just keif pressed into a block for more convinient handling. It turns brown, black over time on the outside and that's why it's brighter inside when break them open. Hash is a degraded form of kief. By the time it's dark and solid it would have lost a lot of it's terps and potency.
When I store kief in a plastic box over time the powder turns into a block and turns brown hash. Fresh cold pressed kief is bright almost white in color, has almost no loss of terps and potency.

It's not a gimmick, as much as it is a spectrum.
You have your commercial type "static" hash and then you have the real deal.
Real static is that amber color and it is waxier than drysift. The type that comes from THC and Thegoodstuff.
I think the key with static is how many runs you give it with your chosen technique to clean it.
1 run with the glove or cd method probably leaves still a considerable amount of contaminant.
You could technically call this static without actually lying. But it's still gonna look like triple filtered and not waxy at all (as you see with some of the static sold on lb presently).
I got some "110 micron static" from a vendor about 18 months ago. For the life of me I think it was from "Pablo Esobar". It was dark on the outside. Not squidgy black dark. But darker than clay sort of grey.
Very light on the inside.
Holy shit, that was probably the finest hash I have ever smoked, including real static. Still to this day not sure if it was static, or static cured under favourable conditions but goddammit the next review after mine showed that the hash being sold was not the same. I'd have been gutted if I was that guy.
The next best was the barz la static. That was soft, brown and oily, not unlike a number of hashes you might find on here. But it just smoked like top draw stuff.
So, no gimmicks - it's down to how clean you can get it.
With an iceolator available at about £100 though, I'm not sure why you'd go to the trouble.

It still sounds like a gimmick tbh. Again the static collection methods I've seen can collect all the bits just keep drag the glove over the kief and done. Won't change the kief itself if anything dragging the plactic throught as they do it in the videos create friction, warms up the kief slightly but the waxy consistency suggest heat being introduced at some point during the process or storage. Same as heat pressed rosin can change its consistency from shatter like to sappy wax like depending on tempreture it pressed and stored etc.
Dry sift kief is dry and powdery, not waxy static is the same. That powder then pressed into bricks and that brick should look bright yellow if done right. Over time this will turn brown do to aging

Obviously you haven’t researched what piatella is have you? Lmao. Go to Barcelona and find out. Come back an tell me it’s a gimmick then.
This is from sensiseeds "Piattella hash is a solventless extract made from fresh-frozen bubble hash that is cold-cured until it becomes butter-like"
I bet I can make this in fact I have pressed rosin in the past that became butter like, but I guess cold curing can preserve the terps is it worth it tho? how much they sell for?

Mr. Squid
Need RSO and Distillate Please
Hi to everyone, ill need a help please
Im looking to buy 20ml od Distillate and 10ml of RSO in super stealth package.
Had been buying here for years, used to be under different nickname.
Never had any problems with delivery till now unfortunately.
I live in a very small town and recently couple of my orders went missing. Same happened to my mates. It wasnt the cops, cause we never heard of them. Looks like we have a Postie with very sticky fingers😪
Most of the Distillate and RSO comes in small syringes.
Is here any vendor please, who could post it for me in something different?
Something like a bottle of eye drops or calpol etc.? Basically anything, but syringes?
Obviously going to pay any extra money for the extra packaging.
Already asked a vendor, but didn't get replay, so im just assuming its a hassle for vendors
Thanks a lot

I had some of this and it was the strongest oil I've had in a long time , great price too
Hey Mr Squid, awwww that's a nightmare, sorry to hear about this. Have you tried Diamond Extracts? Great friendly shop who might be able to help you out.

Yeah he got superb extracts, had some few weeks ago, his RSO and Distillate rocks!
Thats the vendor i had asked, i just assume he cant be bothered with that, unfortunately i didn't get replay

I͟s͟ l͟i͟t͟t͟l͟e͟b͟i͟g͟g͟y͟ l͟e͟g͟i͟t͟
The short answer is yes, littlebiggy is a real online marketplace where users can buy/sell products. This is backed up by;
• An escrow system
• A rating and review system, thousands of positive reviews across seller profiles on LB
• A voting system
• Countless Reddit threads regarding the question: www.reddit.com/r/saplings/comments/vubyag/is_littlebiggyorg_legit/
• LB Trustpilot page: uk.trustpilot.com/review/littlebiggy.com
• Reviews in the topic section of littlebiggy

There are 3 main ways littlebiggy ensures safety for buyers;
• Secure payments;
Payment processors on littlebiggy act as an escrow service, buyers send funds to the payment processor then the funds are released to the seller after 8-13 days.
• Dispute mechanism.
In the case a buyer's order does not arrive/is not as described etc and they can’t reach a resolution with the seller, buyers have the option to make a dispute.
• Rating and review system
The rating and review system on littlebiggy allows users to provide anonymous feedback on products, in turn other user’s can see these reviews and use them to help determine whether a product/seller is genuine or high quality.

There are 4 ways to search for your preferred items;
• ‘Keyword’ function:
On the items page click the ‘keyword’ button.
• Search with your browser on the items page:
On PC/Mac press CTRL+F or Command+F
On mobile click ‘More’ then ‘Find in page’ in Chrome/duckduckgo or click ‘Share’ then ‘Find on page’ in Safari.
• Search engine;
Just search ‘littlebiggy ___’ in your search engine, usually you will find what product/page you're looking for.
• littlebiggy ‘topics’ page
Sellers often advertise and announce promotions here.
4.
H͟o͟w͟ t͟o͟ c͟h͟o͟o͟s͟e͟ a͟ s͟e͟l͟l͟e͟r͟ t͟o͟ b͟u͟y͟ f͟r͟o͟m͟
There are many factors to determine whether a seller is worthy of your business, here are some things to consider before buying;
• The seller’s reviews and ratings:
Ratings and reviews are probably your best ally here, scroll down on the sellers page and you will find the review section. Other Biggaz opinions give you a good idea if a product or seller will be any good. This is not fool-proof though as unfortunately some sellers manipulate this.
• When the seller joined the site
You can check when a seller/any user joined by going to their profile and looking below their profile picture.
• Topic reviews/posts mentioning the seller
Although again not fool-proof, reviews seen on the ‘topics’ page can help you gauge whether a seller or product is worth a go. It is however possible for a seller to make an alt account and big up his product. The best ways to distinguish between bogus posts and genuine ones are by checking if they were posted by active/reputable Biggaz, how many votes the posts/topics have received and who made said votes. Generally speaking most good sellers are too busy to bother with all of this but there are an odd few who try to manipulate it.
• How fast/efficiently does the seller reply to private messages
Communication is key, when buying from a seller you haven’t purchased from before, send them a message and see what their communication game is like. Most of the best sellers here are always active and will reply back within hours.
New buyers;
If you are a new buyer (below 5-10 buys), please check the seller’s profile by clicking on their username, in their ‘manifesto’ they often say whether they accept new buyers or not. If they don’t then consider other options.

It is always recommended to try to work things out with your seller before disputing. Disputing should be a last resort but don’t be scared to hit that button if you have long tried solutionizing to no avail.
Disputes are auto-settled using reputation data from both parties.
To make a dispute click on ‘x orders’ > find the order in question > click the ‘dispute’ button.
You can read more about disputes and how they work here; https://littlebiggy.com/link/N9y8TM
If you have waited too long to dispute or have been stalled etc the dispute button will disappear but you can also request a late dispute.
To do this go to the page of the seller you purchased from and make a new topic there titled “REQUEST LATE DISPUTE” with this format;
ORDER ID:
ITEM PAGE LINK:
DATE PAID:
TODAYS DATE:

I͟s͟ l͟i͟t͟t͟l͟e͟b͟i͟g͟g͟y͟ l͟e͟g͟i͟t͟
The short answer is yes, littlebiggy is a real online marketplace where users can buy/sell products. This is backed up by;
• An escrow system
• A rating and review system, thousands of positive reviews across seller profiles on LB
• A voting system
• Countless Reddit threads regarding the question: www.reddit.com/r/saplings/comments/vubyag/is_littlebiggyorg_legit/
• LB Trustpilot page: uk.trustpilot.com/review/littlebiggy.com
• Reviews in the topic section of littlebiggy

There are 3 main ways littlebiggy ensures safety for buyers;
• Secure payments;
Payment processors on littlebiggy act as an escrow service, buyers send funds to the payment processor then the funds are released to the seller after 8-13 days.
• Dispute mechanism.
In the case a buyer's order does not arrive/is not as described etc and they can’t reach a resolution with the seller, buyers have the option to make a dispute.
• Rating and review system
The rating and review system on littlebiggy allows users to provide anonymous feedback on products, in turn other user’s can see these reviews and use them to help determine whether a product/seller is genuine or high quality.

There are 4 ways to search for your preferred items;
• ‘Keyword’ function:
On the items page click the ‘keyword’ button.
• Search with your browser on the items page:
On PC/Mac press CTRL+F or Command+F
On mobile click ‘More’ then ‘Find in page’ in Chrome/duckduckgo or click ‘Share’ then ‘Find on page’ in Safari.
• Search engine;
Just search ‘littlebiggy ___’ in your search engine, usually you will find what product/page you're looking for.
• littlebiggy ‘topics’ page
Sellers often advertise and announce promotions here.
4.
H͟o͟w͟ t͟o͟ c͟h͟o͟o͟s͟e͟ a͟ s͟e͟l͟l͟e͟r͟ t͟o͟ b͟u͟y͟ f͟r͟o͟m͟
There are many factors to determine whether a seller is worthy of your business, here are some things to consider before buying;
• The seller’s reviews and ratings:
Ratings and reviews are probably your best ally here, scroll down on the sellers page and you will find the review section. Other Biggaz opinions give you a good idea if a product or seller will be any good. This is not fool-proof though as unfortunately some sellers manipulate this.
• When the seller joined the site
You can check when a seller/any user joined by going to their profile and looking below their profile picture.
• Topic reviews/posts mentioning the seller
Although again not fool-proof, reviews seen on the ‘topics’ page can help you gauge whether a seller or product is worth a go. It is however possible for a seller to make an alt account and big up his product. The best ways to distinguish between bogus posts and genuine ones are by checking if they were posted by active/reputable Biggaz, how many votes the posts/topics have received and who made said votes. Generally speaking most good sellers are too busy to bother with all of this but there are an odd few who try to manipulate it.
• How fast/efficiently does the seller reply to private messages
Communication is key, when buying from a seller you haven’t purchased from before, send them a message and see what their communication game is like. Most of the best sellers here are always active and will reply back within hours.
New buyers;
If you are a new buyer (below 5-10 buys), please check the seller’s profile by clicking on their username, in their ‘manifesto’ they often say whether they accept new buyers or not. If they don’t then consider other options.
5.
H͟o͟w͟ t͟o͟ b͟u͟y͟ o͟n͟ l͟i͟t͟t͟l͟e͟b͟i͟g͟g͟y͟
1) Find your desired product and click ‘buy’
2) Click ‘cart’ in the top left to go to the *checkout* screen.
3) Select your country and type your correct shipping details in the designated boxes.
4) Click on ‘please select shipping’, a drop-down menu will appear and you can select what shipping method you’d like to use.
5) Click ‘pay’ and you will be sent to an order page on ‘transaxe.com’ where you can see details on how much your order costs and where to send your bitcoin.
6) Send the stated amount of bitcoin to the address shown there on that page.
7) Once you have sent your bitcoin to the designated address, wait for your payment to be confirmed on the blockchain. This confirmation should take less than an hour but depends on the fee you sent your bitcoin with.
8) Wait for your product to be dispatched.
9) You can check for updates on your order by clicking on ‘x orders’ in the top left of littlebiggy then clicking on the long blue string of numbers. You can also message the seller directly there about your order, this is also where you can leave a review/rating once your product has arrived.

It is always recommended to try to work things out with your seller before disputing. Disputing should be a last resort but don’t be scared to hit that button if you have long tried solutionizing to no avail.
Disputes are auto-settled using reputation data from both parties.
To make a dispute click on ‘x orders’ > find the order in question > click the ‘dispute’ button.
You can read more about disputes and how they work here; https://littlebiggy.com/link/N9y8TM
If you have waited too long to dispute or have been stalled etc the dispute button will disappear but you can also request a late dispute.
To do this go to the page of the seller you purchased from and make a new topic there titled “REQUEST LATE DISPUTE” with this format;

-It might be worth adding your guidance on Buying Bitcoin?
-It might be worth discussing ‘best’ delivery options, not blaming vendors for RM failures (ie patience) and the value of good polite comms.
- Changes to order Status- ie an order not marked Sent after 100 hours will be auto refunded.
- How to build ‘reputation’?
- How to contact anyone directly including the Borgs without using links?: just click +new on your Chats page and type in their name.
- How does the LB ‘Community’ work?
- What are Borgs?

Cool.
I'm amazed there is so much to it really, just buying a bit of weed! But then a lot of buyers don't bother with any of it- they don't even log-in so don't use reviews, disputes or anything else. Which is another method worth adding LOL!

Nice one man.
I was lucky and had a mate who bused it first and showed me the ropes but this would have been top to have when building your buying confidence.

Is there any way to block users on here? Keep seeing tiresome sub daily mail shit and being tempted to troll.
I would rather not have to think about it.
I would rather not have to think about it.
Hadn't seen this for ages but it just popped.up on the topic wall the way random stuff does. This was essential reading for me as a newbie. Still the best guide written about LB.
I've no idea how the wall works. I swear it'd baffle even the brightest of minds how the algorithm - for example - chooses the same handful of Christmas posts to show repeatedly throughout summer.
No problem bud I have linked my sellers guide also, even better for new vendors as this is mostly for buyers, enjoy and thanks :)
Strong work, thanks.
FYI section 8 (disputes) gives a link for further reading, but it's dead now.
I'm not sure when you wrote this or how actively it's maintained, but it might be an idea to note when it was last edited.

Very useful, thanks.
I hadn't noticed the 'keyword' on 'items' so thanks for that.
I don't think littlebiggy.io works - I tried both with and without 'www' and no DNS enrty for it:
"Unable to determine IP address from hostname "www.littlebiggy.io"
The DNS server returned: Name Error: The domain name does not exist."

regarding the keyword search, it has also an advanced "hidden" feature.
there are 4 special filters;
- vendor
- item_title
- item_desc
- variety
eg; you wanna search products from a specific vendor? type in the keyword 'vendor:Cool vendor name', you want to search for a specific keyword in the item title? type in the keyword 'item_title:pollen' and so on

So to clarify, you can only get bitcoin if someone creates a new account through your referral link and buys something? You can't earn bitcoin through any other link, like when a biggy posts a link on the topic page that takes you to a vendors item and they make a purchase of that item?

Yes I did.
I received the Lemon Cherry strain of Growlers Icecaps.
It's incredible stuff, fruity terps from the bud, I taste strawberry, blueberry, cherry and lemon in that order.
The bud is covered in white THCA diamonds, both inside and out.
I highly recommend it, if you like to get seriously high.
It was also overweight, weighing in at 28.9 grams.
My only criticism is that I would like to be able to choose which strain I receive.
But the bud is fire and overweight and with the THCA diamonds, it's incredibly strong.

Compliments to the chef, and the cat for bringing it to us!
nothing hits my tastebuds quite like a good Mimosa, that lingering orangey aftertaste you get is unmatched, wish I could have a proper Mimosa like this in my stash all year round!
for the price and overall smoking experience this is in my top 3 buys of this year and already got another order in!
Oh yeah and it arrived in less than 24 hours with tracked 24, thanks GC!

Completely agree. It's a lovely bit and I'm also hoping that GC has purchased a truckload of it.
The best OG Mimosa since Smoggy's Portland Mimosa back in the day- anyone remember that?...nom nom!

I've had the silver bubble here before. A real old school flavour - can really taste the component strains - and it's a lovely bud. You won't go far wrong with GC and there's some proper nice bits available right now. My order is over a day late going in as I couldn't decide what to buy. I'll be back on payday to pick up more.
absolutely vouch for the Green Cat , had over 80 orders. I find his bud unbeatable, particularly when price to quality is factored in. He always has a great range to suit your mood. His comms are on point, almost every order i have some request or another, he always tries to accommodate. have tried alot of the big names on the wall and most of them are great but for me the Cat is who i spend 90% of my dollar with and i dont intend changing. Its just the sensible choice imho. Excellent clean strong tasty bud, packaged very stealthy but carefully , no smushed bud, or vacuum packed death grip buds, and all at a very reasonable price. Top Cat.

Favourite is orange bud. I like the flavour but also the way the stone creeps up.
The strain I really disliked was thin mint cookies. Bloody awful. No idea what they were thinking there.

Love me some orange bud, only really tried Tangerine Dream, but there’s something to it. Just ordered some of MJ’s Mimosa x Orange Punch, looking forward to that too.
I've had a previous batch of that. That was lovely stuff. GC had a nice mimosa punch recently too but it sold out pretty quick.
The last one I had from GC was good old fashioned Mimosa- bloody marvelous stuff. I do wish they would stop messing about with it. The cross with the orange punch doesn't have the same effects for me and the Evo is a crime against Mimosa imo lol!
I wasn't such a big fan of the evo but I like the punch cross. I'd love to get hold of an original bit of the California orange bud they used to sell in Dam to see how it stands up now.
Favourite strain would have to be Bubba Kush or Boss OG. Bubba Kush tastes and hits amazingly and Boss OG tastes incredible, like drinking a can of sprite. My least favourite is probably Strawberry Kush, thought I would’ve loved that strain, but it’s too terpy to enjoy, overwhelming amount of strawberry terps.
I still remember my favourite it was when I was a student over 20 years ago in Liverpool.
It sounds vanilla but it was Big Bud. Lived up to its name, nice big buds, crystally to f*ck, smelled amazing and the high just gradually swelled til you were mullered.
It was beautiful

Tbf my all time favourite is master kush 🔥 lost a solid 8 hours of my day that i can't recollect even now 🤣🤣
Worst bud for me has to be grapefruit diesel, can smoke ounces of it and it never gets me stoned. Not in the slightest. Any grapefruit strain tbf. 💀

We need some sort of thing set up on the site so when your favourite strains are listed it contacts you via PM, then Polly's inbox would flash like the Bat Phone in '60s Batman.
Pol and Apex are both currently cursed by the algorithm, I believe. This post should bring it back to the wall.

The algorithm doesn't seem to like me very much either lately. My topics are fleeting at best. I bought this mimosa (predictably) and can confirm it's a lovely example. Normally I'd probably have done a post on it where I get all besides myself about the orange flavours. This bud definitely ranks as viable for a gushing review about old Amsterdam days and original orange strains. I know for sure that some of my reviews have had people jump on board and order for themselves as several of them DM me. But lately it doesn't seem to count for much. At the same time the walls been loving a few Christmas posts I notice. I swear the LB algorithm takes more drugs than any of its customers.
With you on this one BR…in fact GC’s photo with the oranges is from my original review!😍
I've reordered the mimosa straight away before your photo sells it all! And maybe because I went through a wee bit more of it than I had planned to. Is this the first mimosa we've agreed on?
Possibly amigo....OG Mimosa- its the only way lol!....Its what Mimosa Wednesdays were invented for!
Every day this weekend was a Wednesday. When I get my new bit there may be some more Wednesdays next weekend too.

Looking for Strains Suggestions [01/09/25]
My friend is on the hunt for some new strains to grow. I would love to have some blue dream going.
Hit me with your suggestions! What strains are your favorite ones that you cannot find? What strains you heard a lot about but never got the chance to try?

Psychosis - UK clone only cheese cut from about 15 years back. Absolutely stunk and wiped the floor of every cheese I've had since
If you find it, you've a customer for life, lol

Some of the grows you see on Reddit using Clearwater Genetics looks really good, along with Relentless. Expensive beans though. Chocolope used to be nice, haven't seen it for years, DNA Genetics have rereleased it.
This is the first time I've seen Killer Skunk mentioned since my mate grew some years ago. Probably like 15 years ago. I thought he'd made up the name. It was a seriously stinky skunk. Lovely smoke.
Hi
I would love to see my faves such as: Strawberry and Cherry Kush or Haze, Mango Haze, Fruity Pebbles, Strawberry Amnesia and a strain called Church OG that is amazing but I've never seen listed here on LB.
Hope this helps.

Pineapple Kush has been my favourite strain. Its so mellow and paired well with any activity for me. If you could get that, you couldn't get rid of me! 💚
Blumosa sounds an interesting mix up and I've heard some Boof crosses are available. I'd like to see an old premium durban from a modern grow too.
Not enough folks give creedance to the DJ Short back catalogue. A few years ago a cannabis association asked me the same question. I suggested Lavender (soma) or Blueberry (DJ Short) A season or two later I was lucky enough to return and sample the smoke and extracts. I also took home some lavender f2s which are some of the best and fastest plants ive grown. Maybe not a choice for a bigger homogenous grow from seed with a comercial aspect. Thats what delicious seeds 11 roses is for. She loves cold nights. ;)
Ive just grown lately dj short blueberry and its a really difficult strain to grow and to many leafs to trim in the end

Initiative: Don't Allow Gifs As Main Product Image
Disallow the use of moving video images as the main image on product listings.
AGAINST
this strikes me as gross over regulation. if people share your opinion they can skip the item or take a few seconds to look at other images.
personally i have seen some cool stuff with gifs and wouldn't like to see creativity stifled in a community like this.

I find it much harder to look at a bud and understand how good or bad it probably is when it's dancing around on the screen. Trying to get a good glance is like trying to catch a Pokémon.
When there's loads of these in the feed it looks like homer Simpsons first website. Also I find writing a review harder for a gif product as a opaque moving image sits behind the box you type in. After blasting a few smokes it's most disconcerting.
I think removing the ability to post GIFs as a main product image would improve listings and the experience of LB users.

Even though I don't use them but from a vendors perspective they are seem as more appealing so it does make sense. Also there's arguments like yours against. Maybe if they used GIF for main photos but if you click there images they have still ones also? Keeps everyone happy.

My Winnings
Nice write up man. I was just checking the page out as I entered the new competition. All looks pretty decent. The blumosa looks like it might be rath…
My Winnings
Got to start off with a thank you, always nice to win a comp 🥳
Capital came on the scene recently with some decent offers available, while getting some early punters taking a chance. They did well to increase exposure with a good few comps.
Like the vultures we are, the guesses flood in.
Shocked to win, I honestly thought I’d probably never receive an oz of candy zoap for free. And if it was sent would it really land.
Time went on, but I didn’t chase. Message came through “I’ll send Monday” seemed long but to be told that gave me hope.
I think a few more days passed and I gave up and the I log into restock and there’s just a tracking number from capital?!
Types it in, shit, seems legit.
Like an impatient mofo, I’m checking my tracker far too often and watch its journey across the globe till it lands in my hands a couple of weeks later 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
Cracked it open like an addict needing his fix, stealth is good. Though Mrs apex questioned the box label wondering why I ordered such things from so far away. “They’re the best my dear”
So stealth is good, gets through customs and Mrs apex!
Buds are dense and vac packed well. I decide to chuck them in my jar for a bit let it breathe and rest after its long journey.
Few hours later i stick my nose in the bag and get a nice smell of sweet goodness and I roll a fatty. The buds are Cali dense and fluff up big in the grinder.
Flavour comes through nicely and really helped take the stress and sadness away as we lost a close member of the skunk family.😥
Burns really well and evenly, and while I don’t think it reeked any more than my usual smokes. I was about to find out how wrong I was…..
My neighbour knocked and complained about the smell wafting to their bathroom. They’re cool so I apologised and said I’ll do in shed 😬
Anyone else. I’d have probably told them to do one and I’m vaping my meds so shhhh.
Her words cracked me up, the words REALLY POTENT were used and i could only grin my face of at them while stinking of skunk from my pores.
I close the door and go smoke the rest and got so battered I fell asleep in the garage.
Capital has had some great comms since as I’m deciding on my purchase to put my money down too.
Always a bit riskier going overseas but I’m gonna take a punt on a couple of those deals and hope you’re legit and sticking around 😂
I think jelly belly, bluemosa, and that exotic need to see me soon and maybe stock up on the extract for a year in one go
Thanks again mate and keep up the comms, biggas gotta be patient so id advise grabbing a bit from your usual and then this for the future 🤜❤️🦨

😂 congrats on the win 🏅
Glad people are also having good experiences had 2 orders land now but that bluemosa caught my eye too. 💚

I've had your Doritos and they were surprisingly strong and probably matched my RSO cookies in terms of strength which I didn't expect.
Thanks for running the competition.

Really glad (and a bit proud!) to hear the Doritos packed a punch and held their own against your RSO cookies that’s a proper compliment! 💪🌿

Well done mate. Hopefully they sort it out for you. I always do terribly at guess the bitcoin price. The only comp I've got a prize from was out of sympathy from the vendor.
Not looking good bud, they've not been online in a few days, and not used messenger in nearly two weeks
Ah crap. Am gutted for you if it doesn't get sorted. There's not much else you can do other than comment and message them. They still have products live so I wonder if the orders are being processed.
Rofl, I asked my mate at work to guess the price, thought she was mad when she said $120k
Honestly though, BTC has been rising daily for a while now, I'm shocked at its price right now
Honestly though, BTC has been rising daily for a while now, I'm shocked at its price right now
I guessed higher. I think it was about 1000 bucks when I first looked at it many years ago as a curiosity. Pity I didn't start buying in. I guess foresight on bitcoin has never been my strong point. You'll owe your mate a munchie.
Thats the plan Roo! Her and her mates are going to the Dam later this year, so it'll be a good way to experience edibles before landing there
I'd like to get back out there again to see how much it's changed. Been a long time now. Starting with d9 edibles would be my advice. I love rso but I imagine if you happen to be sensitive to edibles that'd it'd be an unpleasant way to discover it. I've had feco Doritos from here where a pack of those might be a terrible starter for a newbie unless they had the self restraint to eat one crisp then wait an hour or so. I was proper space cowboyed off a pack of those.
Well, looks like the vendor has bailed, they've delisted all their products, and been offline for 4 days. Well, shouldn't have got my hopes up. That sucks lol
Ah. Well, I suppose, as the late great Muddy Waters sang - you can't lose what you ain't never had.
That's a shame though. I wonder what happened to them. Hopefully not too many people are caught up with orders waiting refunds.

Yeah I thought they were building something up. The Doritos I had were both unusual and decent. A younger me would've got a few bits from here. Guess it's a tough industry to be in.

Its been a while but I did order twice from LV and both times was a nightmare. Oro Verde much better imho
I can't remember when I wrote that but back in the early days LV had a decent service and people were highly rating the trim. I see they've had numerous complaints and stuff since then.
It's always worth reading the most recent reviews and topics on a vendor page before ordering. Even if you've used them twenty times before. I've seen a few vendors services slide and some just disappear. So far I'm glad not to be caught up in any of it.
I think it's ounce minimum but RealD's shake is the best hands down.

The time has come biggaz!
Super Boof flowers now available.
This strain should be called Orangina, Tangerine Dream or something similar. The most orangie flower I had in the past 5 years.
Approved by littlebiggy's special orange agent smoke reporter the one and only BigRoo! :)

I was curious about this a while back. It's impossible to see on an established vendor but as far as I remember I saw about 10% reviews to orders on new vendor accounts. I'm curious if I've guestimated this right. I wrote a topic about reviews a while back. It amazes me that people don't write them. In so many aspects of life we don't have a voice. We do here.
The mate that introduced me to LB told me he never leaves reviews, and he'd/he's been buying for years.
It seems such a simple thing to do and it helps guide us all towards the lovely things and avoid the troublesome things. Genuinely a shame that only a minority care to contribute.
Does your mate read reviews before buying? Like - does he not care about them or is he freeloading the review system?

Can't speak specifically for here mate, but my experience of eBay sales made me very frustrated with the lack of feedback. Very often from very high sales accounts too. I have to review everything on here so the numbers change on my orders as I find that quite fascinating when the number starts flashing and gets lower.
I'm glad we get to have a say on how the order went. It's one of the most powerful parts of this platform. If you read reviews to help your choices then you should give back by adding your own - in my opinion.
I sent quite a few orders this month with only a couple of reviews left. I think there was an issue with leaving a review a couple weeks ago so I just put it down to that.

1/10 Review 🙄
Whoever made this review please respond to this post…
I shouldn’t really be responding to this but claiming it’s CBD and then comparing the hash to something you’ve seen on internet it’s infuriating. I even looked at this website and there’s no PK hash on there so what’s the comparison?
I’ve added some photos you can clearly see it has been shipped inside a coffee bag decoy. Now would someone go through all that effort just to ship some CBD hash?
It comes in Kgs split into “sheets” of 180g - 200g
I do admit it’s not the strongest pk/charas hash but it’s very good quality and I haven’t seen stuff like this in UK for ages.
I feel like way to many people think there experts these days you need to calm down just because you heard someone talking about mixing distillate with hash doesn't mean your the expert now. Most vendors know all of these shady tactics people are doing to hash it’s no secret.
From my experience hash mixed with distillate always is a little bit “wet” and leaves residue on the packaging it’s pretty easy spot. And it also tends to burn unnaturally violent when under a flame.
Until this it has over 100 reviews average 9.8 so to be honest your opinion is invalid.
I really can’t be bothered with the drama just wanted to respond to this and attach some pictures and extra information so people have a better understanding what they’re buying.

I can confirm that this hash is the real deal. I happen to know the same supplier. Green cat is up there with the most trusted vendors on here.
Think he's mixed you up with hashsishin aka hemp lady they definitely sell fake hash in particular the Hindu kush oily " hash" god knows what the hell that stuff is they should be banned from LB
I have had the pk many times because its so nice and definitely legit bona-fide hash

appreciate you taking the time to provide a peek behind the curtain, it's really cool.
now i'm not madly in love with the gold seal myself, horses for courses of course - it's a very emotive throwback, but you really cant compare it with mbg's hhc or other distillate infused "hash". a cursory comparison of just the smell of each (which is miles different) is enough.
if it mattered (and i think the review is gone now anyway) i could disprove this in pictures as i have some of this awful distillate shite around.

Lemon Haze | Northern Lights | Cheese which old school UK strain is your favourite?
Lemy Haze has got to be my pick I remember it was the first time I really had owt that smelled of anything other than… weed
Skunk no.1 is still around as is most of these Oldskool strains, apart from power plant I've yet to find. Someone needs to re establish that amazing strain here 👍
Smoking on some northern lights this past week shit is strong asf. Do love a good cheese tho...
Nothing will ever compare to 2008 blue cheese for me 👀👀 been tempted to give growing some blue cheese a go
It's got to be psychosis for me. My friends dad back in roughly 2011 used to get cuts and bang 3 plants out every 3/4 months. The smell was unreal, a really deep stanky cat piss smell. A 3.5 in my pocket would stink out the whole house no question and the high was immense, would floor all my mates who would try. Still trying to find someone who grows the original, my friends dad moved since and I've never been able to find it
I'm not sure I ever had a good Northern Lights from the streets, but Haze and Cheese were both really popular back in the day. It's a tough choice 🤔 I'm going to go with Cheese, only because the best haze I had in my youth was in Amsterdam, and Cheese was everywhere locally at one point. Good times
Definitely not lemon haze for me. I find it too heady. I've had blue cheese a while back which was a lovely trip down memory lane as was the white widow I wrote about recently. I like it when some of the old strains pop up on LB and genuinely think many have interesting characteristics we've lost from lots of the modern kush / gelato crossed strains.
S8 for me which was an old skool clone only cut of white rhino that was about Kent and Sussex in the mid to late 90s. Stickiest, skunkiest, stinkyest bit I ever had. Any old skool heads remember this bad boy?
Cheese or Jack Herer, used to love these two. The strench from the cheese and taste being so pungent was so nice. The jack herer pineyness was also great for me, loved it.
forgot to add Jack Herer i have a great memory of when me and my mate got a half of that for a Lake District trip

Thank You for the Drugs! DonL, HumbleB, TGT, DrGT, RadarB, DrS
Post: 22/6/25
Just a quick shout out to a few select vendors who have either gone above and beyond, or have curated a fine selection of smokables this month!
This is further to a reddit thread last week on hash recommendations (where IanMcNoodles and myself seemed to be mentioning the same vendors. Great minds, hey : )
First up,
HumbleB with their LCG Isolator hash.
Absolutely stinks of concentrated LCG flower, melts like a champ and burns clean as you like. Wonderfully smooth, rivals some of the top stuff on here with ease
Beautiful stuff! Also, a very generous free sample of their flower.
Thanks Guys
DonLoco has been killing it (as always) with his MrMiyagi jars of static tastiness, try them while on offer. Well worth it for a treat!
Cheers, Don
TheGreenTeams new fire cali listing and Blue lobster both brought a smile to my face, clean burning doobs with good flavour too.
And a special mention of their Vice City plasma-static hash. Tastes wonderful!
Rocking it, TGT
DrGreenthumbs Blue Dream static blew me away too. Probably one of the best tasting hashes I have been lucky enough to sample from here so far.
Tastes amazing. Really amazing. Sad to run out of this one
I will be back for more!
CannabisCannibals for their soft, homemade hash. Great stuff, oldschool sticky vibes, really rather relaxing stuff.
DrShroom has brightened my world too, with some genuine JB packs. A nice change at a reasonable price.
TheGoodStuff - some wonderful statics so far this year, Gush mintz was great! I shall return before everything is sold out!
And last, but not least, RadarBreeder for some great flower, keeping me topped up with a good mix of stuff. A really nice fella.
Also, thank you to any other vendors who have kept me in stock,or have made me smile : ) You know who you are! (Kidcartiuk, Ganja, sassys, Eddyshashbar ect)
Keep up the good work, the great customer service and the friendly communication!
Love you all Guys and Gals : )
Edit: also, thanks to all behind the scenes at LB. You are appreciated beyond belief!

Edit: also, thanks to all behind the scenes at LB. You are appreciated beyond belief!
Nice post man. It's a good list. Lotta love in this room. Like you put both arms around little biggy in its entirety and gave it a wee cuddle. I feel the same mate.
I buy a lot more buds than hash. It looks like we approach the same thing in differing ways. Most hash I buy tend to be milder daytime smokes with the odd bit of fancy hash for an evening - like a static or that Piatella I had. The crumble waxes - for me - are really good value as a joint topper. Easy to work with, terpy and strong without cleaning too many coins out per gee.

Thanks Roo, who doesn’t like a good hug?
Honestly it's good vendors like these who deserve all the thanks for all the thanks, if you know what I mean!
Choices wise, I love everything, but been having a hash binge lately.
Kinda hard to find constantly good flower sometimes and things come and go so fast on here, plus I finally stopped tobacco a couple of years ago so everything's got to burn super clean : )
These top end hashes are way out of my normal price range but I just can't resist the quality, plus the minimal amounts needed on the bong actually make them weirdly cost effective as a treat.
'Kid in a sweetshop' mentality never goes away either, (I take it you are the same from your excellent posts Roo) so trying out new stuff is always genuinely exciting for people like us!
Much love : )

It's true man, while I'm sure good vendors are well compensated, they have to nail down a complex logistical puzzle on repeat to get us the stuff we love to our door. They should be commended as it's a truly useful service loved by us all.
I have phases when I'm just regular ordering, ticking along and briefly I believe I've grown up. Then I get over excited by something and suddenly go all kid in a sweetshop all over again.
I haven't got the bong out in ages. I've got a couple of nice little glass pipes too. Might get a bit of posh hash in a fire them up.

Aye, must be a nightmare for the vendor ensuring that product consistency is on point when there are so many factors beyond their control in the current climate.
But the world keeps getting better, more places decriminalise, quality control at production level increases in response to reputational perception. Love it : )
It's all come a very long way from a bag of leafy homegrown and a q of soapbar, has it not!

It's a whole world away from picking chunks of plastic from questionable soap bar and getting weed that's greener than the man who lights up to tell you to cross a road. A lot of progress for sure. Now all the packaging is on the outside of the hash.
But yes, we sorta demand an Amazon style service but don't always think through or appreciate the intricacies that vendors must go through to run a shop, at scale, accurately but covertly. Nor what LB must do to keep it ticking by. Perhaps today should be national cuddle your vendor day every year.

I think that we can all get behind that!
I herby declare from this year forward, that the Solstice week is to be known as 'LittleBiggy Staff and Vendor Appreciation Week', which commences with 'Cuddle your Dealer Day' : )
Just make a post, a message or something to make your appreciation known.
I feel it really can be a little impersonal on here sometimes, but behind every transaction is a chain of people with differing motivations who facilitated your purchase.
Anyway, even if it's just me, I'm sticking to it! Go LB!

For my last few orders I've been trying to order from vendors I have overlooked in the past and I feel like this is in the same spirit.

There's a handful of vendors that seem to have a completely solid reputation and products within my price point and tastes that I just never get to. Unless they have some orange bud of course - the one thing that'll get me rolling a dice on a new vendor in two seconds flat. I should follow you and probably do this same thing and widen my vendor pool.
Honestly, Roo, it's absolutely worth it, even if you risk the occasional burn.
I have met some solid new vendors this year, some are now regulars for me. Love helping out with first reviews : )
Have to be careful not to go for anything that looks too good to be true, though ...

I did a stint on new vendor bargains early on when I joined LB with very mixed results and some truly unique excuses and message exchanges. Some of those vendors still exist, many don't. I quite quickly came to the conclusion that quality, consistency and reliability count for a lot and mostly settled on same vendors who just quietly send out great weed on repeat with little fuss. But it's fair to say there's some great looking vendors outside my little circle I should check out. And some I should probably give another chance to.
I'm down with it. I'll look out for it next year and wait with open arms to give my favourite vendors a squidge.
Thanks Iain, likewise to you and your own recommendations that have helped me find new and interesting vendors
Cheers, man!

I wouldn't mind a smoke and a chat with gandalf or merlin 🤔 Just to see what wisdom and tricks I could pick up💚✌️
What a brilliant question! 🌟🐨 I would choose, a grown up Mowgli, from the Jungle Book. Old enough to smoke, but smoking doesn’t harm him at all.He would know SO much wicked animal stuff , and could tell you about conversations he had had with actual animals. And he was raised by wolves and his best friends were a panther and a bear. And the baddy was a snake! 💥👾
The female Terminator from Terminator 3 the weed would chill her out and I bet she does good hand jobs 👍🤔
Ooof, there are actually so many! Sanji from One Piece would be one of the top picks. The munchies you’d get after 😩. Karlach from Baldurs Gate 3 would be pretty awesome too, but she might cook the J first 😂

Tissues received instead of product!!
Ordered from seller, and order was listed as ‘sent’. A couple of days later, the seller got in touch to ask for the address - it turns out that the order had not actually been dispatched, and the seller could no longer see the address details. I recontacted the seller when the item had not arrived two weeks later, and they said they were sorry, they had not yet sent it but were sending it now. The dispute window soon closed, but I trusted that they were in fact sending it and so did not raise a dispute in the remaining time. About a week later, a parcel arrived - but it contained nothing but some tissues!! Why would the seller spend postage to send me only tissues!!?? Have tried to contact seller, but they have stopped responding to my messages after simply saying that it is a strange situation…
Any suggestions on how to proceed?

There used to be some way you can request a late dispute. Unsure if it is still the case. If so, there is probably a borg somebody can point you to.
Going forward stick to this rule:
Never, ever, ever allow a vendor to persuade you not to raise the dispute if you have not received the product for any reason. It makes the whole escrow thing pointless. You are paying for the escrow within the price of the product.
If it arrives, you can cancel the dispute with the click of a button.

Looking for penicillin (UK)
Am also on lookout for diazes 10mg. This is for medical reasons not recreation. The quacks have been told not to prescribe anything bigger than 2mg.
I'm trying to get some penicillin stocked up, as my Wife sufferers with severe bouts of toncilitis and getting my local GP to give some out is an impossiblity.
Leave a dirty bowl out for a few days. That's Peniciliin.
https://www.nlm.nih.gov/exhibition/fromdnatobeer/img/exhibition-penicillium-lg.jpg
joking don't do that but it's the same thing whwre it comes from. mould/mold. bacteria
https://www.nlm.nih.gov/exhibition/fromdnatobeer/img/exhibition-penicillium-lg.jpg

Please don't do this.
If the Doctor isn't prescribing, there is probably a reason.
We are running out of viable antibiotics in the world as antibiotic resistant bacteria increase.
We are already seeing many deaths because of so called "super bugs" https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-britain-bug-idUKL3167831520070331 that are a direct result of unrestrained and misapplied use of antibiotics.
Obviously there are a lot of tin foil hat types who hate the WHO. But here is their guidance:
https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/antibiotic-resistance
Here is the relevant bit:
To prevent and control the spread of antibiotic resistance, individuals can:
• Only use antibiotics when prescribed by a certified health professional.
• Never demand antibiotics if your health worker says you don’t need them.
• Always follow your health worker’s advice when using antibiotics.
• Never share or use leftover antibiotics.
• Prevent infections by regularly washing hands, preparing food hygienically, avoiding close contact with sick people, practising safer sex, and keeping vaccinations up to date.
Prepare food hygienically, following the WHO Five Keys to Safer Food (keep clean, separate raw and cooked, cook thoroughly, keep food at safe temperatures, use safe water and raw materials) and choose foods that have been produced without the use of antibiotics for growth promotion or disease prevention in healthy animals.
Non specific/topical Antibiotics are anyway really bad for you. A lot of scientists now think that a disrupted biome is the cause of many ills including the rise of autoimmune illnesses, but also problems with sleep, skin, mental health problems and all the rest.
Antibiotics should be a last and not a first resort.
If you need repeated doses of the same antibiotic to solve a problem such as tonsillitis, then antibiotics are probably not the solution.
If you are buying antibiotics from anywhere other than an approved supplier (particularly in the so called developed world) there is a significant chance you are getting substandard or counterfeit goods anyway -https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9394205/#:~:text=Of%20the%2013%20555%20samples,366%2F3511)%2C%20respectively.
Let the flaming commence.

What is the best Science Fiction Anime Series?
Steins gate or psychopass series 1 are amazing.
Cowboy Bebop is amazing, beautifully written, drawn, and directed. Don't be turned off by the 1st episode which isn't very sci fi and more like film noir cliche stuff. The future world unfolds over the episodes along with the back story of how it evolved though another great thing is each episode stands independently.
There is supposed to be a live action movie coming out at some point in the future. I thought there would be a third season but l guess l am wrong.
Steins gate is class. Time travel sci fi. Bit of a slow burner but get past the first two episodes it’s quality on Netflix as well.
Steins;Gate is brilliant. Some unique characterisations and a great, but inevitably confusing, take on the time travel concept with a ton of real world references and conspiracies. Solid choice. However, I highly recommend this viewing order: Steins;Gate episodes 01-22 then episode 23β (alternate version of 23), Steins;Gate 0 episodes 01-23 (you can watch somewhere online or on Crunchyroll) then original Steins;Gate series episodes 23-24. Sounds confusing lol but honestly this is the best way to experience the story.
Finished kaiba the other night from this recommendation. Thought it was class, trippy as fuck.
I love the premise here with the mind-body interchange but its really hard for me to get past the drawing. It seems more like something out of Spain in the 1930s than Anime.
Don’t know if this is a mad suggestion or if literally everybody has seen it. But the Animatrix ?
9 (I think) half an hour animated films set within The Matrix universe. All are interesting and well animated, but a few are stellar.
There’s one created by Shinichiro Watanabe, of cowboy beebop and samurai champloo (my personal favourite).
If you haven’t seen it, buy the dvd and watch it; if you have seen it, back me up!
Peace

back that matrix up, it's awesome.
the back and forth between ghost in the shell and the matrix gets its best iteration right here.

Terraformars (テラフォーマー, Terafōmā) are evolved humanoid cockroaches who live on Mars. They possess physical traits and skills that greatly surpass those of normal humans. They also appear to be somewhat intelligent and have a natural hatred for humans; much like how humans hate cockroaches.

not sure it qualifies as science fiction - but! try to watch it when high when high.
DOROHEDORO
i'd love to hear from you when you do.

Dorohedoro is fucking class. Watched the first season twice (high) then read the entire manga.
serial experiment lain!!!, a bit old but still ahead of most anime... and I mean, Evangelion, if you have not seen it!
Was about to say this, superb Anime!!
Also, an oldie but a classic is "The guyver" bio booster armour!!!

Deathnote was good, so was One Punch Man. Terror in Residence was really good too. And I quite liked Knights of Sidonia. Or just watch Akira and Ghost in the Shell and be done with it :)
Thanks for the tip. It should be cool just based on the fact that he did Samurai Jack. And Ive found out a movie version was made and even submitted to oscars (fck oscars tho!).. Nice!!
Sci fi anime faves:
Noein (short series based on quantum physics theory),
Gintama (comedy anime partly set in space),
Ergo proxy (short dystopian series in futuristic world),
Inuyashiki (Old man becomes a weaponized cyborg and you follow his story),
Parasyte (High school kid gets infected by an alien parasyte),
And last but not least!
Psycho pass, it has 3 seasons and about 5 movies on the same world. A world which is monitored by an expert crime a.i. program, people get a hue which shows how likely to commit crime you will be, it's hard to explain but definitely my favourite sci fi series for a while.

Edens Zero is a new series if you want somthing light hearted and not too heavy ... if you want heavy watch Gantz, Straight jacket, Karas ect.... Brynhildr in the Darkness is not bad ether has a sci-fi take on witches being aliens..
Trigun was one of my favourite highly recommended it. The 7 deadly sins is pretty cool.
Terra formars is one of my all time favorites, parasyte is great but more body horror than sci fi
Think someone has mentioned all of these, but still
gurren lagann, Evangelion, Cowboy bebop, Space Dandy, Legend of the galactic heroes are some of the heavy hitters that everyone should see
Planetes is lesser known and quite low stakes but really good show about a crew who live on a satellite and have to collect trash from earth's orbit
Kaiba is great if you can stomach the art-style and are high enough to understand what's going on

Steins Gate has to be number 1 it’s one of the best anime's even outside of just the sci fi category, I highly recommend it, it has really interesting plot-lines about time-travel. Parasyte is also another great watch along with cowboy bebop a classic futuristic western like show.
Cowboy Bebop. No qualifying statement required. It's a timeless classic. I wish I could see it for the first time again
Space dandy. Some really good episodes to watch stoned especially the first few.
Love death robots good shout.
Saiki k. Didn't watch stoned but really enjoyed it, might give it another look myself.
Non SciFi recommendation would be Kakegurui, if you haven't watched it watch it stoned it's really good. It's about gambling and girls that leak a lot of fluid.
Also 'close enough' is quite good to watch stoned from the makers of the regular show but for adults.
All should be on Netflix.

Castlevania on Netflix is awesome! Not really sci-fi but the art style is great and a nice spin on an old tale. I binge watched 3 seasons in like 3days lol
I am going to give a quirky suggestion and say Boogiepop Phantom. Otherwise, Cowboy Bebop.
(But once you are done with Cowboy Bebop, watch Samurai Champloo. It is Cowboy Bebop set in feudal Japan).

Any tips for reinvigorating dry weed?
When I smoked tobacco I used to put a bit of citrus peel in the pack if it dried out. No idea if that would be a good idea or not.
Cheers :)

Boveda pack in a glass jar, or Grove bags either way 62% rh for a week or two should bring it back to life👍
This is what I generally do. One of the packs is getting a bit dry. Should swap that one out...
Alien to me too mate. I've no idea what those things are. What were they when you looked it up? Like, should I be buying some too?
Yes. Get a pack for around £15 inc delivery online. Just put a pack in a jar with your bud. Ideally one of your range of different sizes of glass UV resistant jars...
I have an eclectic mix of little glass jars that imported weed came in, plastic weed pots with the dimple at the bottom, and a metal tin. I thought I was doing okay. This is a setback. Where does one acquire UV resistant glass jars from to keep up with the modern gentlemen?
Many online vendors available dude. They're around £18-20 for a 500mL jar, £14-16 for 250mL. The tax avoiding vendor named after a river does them...
Man, that's like when I look at rucksacks online and it says it can carry ten litres or thirty litres. How much is that? Like am I meant to liquify my weekend clothes and then paint them on or something? I'd probably stick to mini sized jars. I'd guess smaller than 250. I like having just an 8th in each pot as I buy little bits often rather than big bits at once generally.
500mL fits something like an oz almost exactly of Franz's BSS, and it's filled over halfway for not suspiciously dense, but still more dense imports, like loads of the imports from Canada. 250mL fits about half that amount, so you can decant from larger to smaller jars to cycle through as you get through your weed and restock. May not work with your way of smoking and storage, but you can get smaller Bovida packs to put in 100mL jars, which may fit what you're looking for better with regards to long term storage and keeping your weed tip top.
Just picked up on this. More useful information! UV proof jars?? I have a random collection of little pots and whatnot which have sufficed thus far.
Love the liquid clothes comment 😂

Not sure about rehydrating the weed mate but I use integra boost packs to stop it drying out as quick.
62% humidity and 4g pouch for 14g bud, 8g pouch for 28g bud :)
62% humidity and 4g pouch for 14g bud, 8g pouch for 28g bud :)
I got some on Aliexpress, it was about £8 for 10 x 8g 62%. They work great.
I used to get some dry as hell stuff from canada, I'd always put half an orange in with 1lb and it would moisten up
orange segment or peel same with apple or even potato keep an eye on it will bring it back if it's not too far gone.
Boveda packs work apparently, but I never had success with them personally, perhaps they only work with small amounts of weed. I used to buy my personal stash in 1lb at a time and if it ever became dry towards the end, I would use orange/lemon/lime peel to bring it back to life. I would leave it in the jar (NOT TOUCHING THE WEED) and check on it every 3-4h. I wouldn't leave it over night. It won't take long and you're also not using anything synthetic.
It actually made the weed taste better, be sure you don't over do it, or you'll have to dry it out. That happened when I left it over night.

Thanks! Yeah, that’s what I used to do with tobacco when I smoked it. Bit of a lightweight obviously 😂
TerpsLoc bags or grove bags work best, glass jars became too cumbersome when you have a lot, Boveda packs i only use if the bud is Very dry but remember Boveda will dull the nose on your bud but that's the sacrifice we must make.
Thanks :) I tend to use shake as a tobacco substitute but my consumption is so low that it tends to hang around in a jar for months.
Thanks for the useful tips everyone!
Thanks for the useful tips everyone!
You can actually buy terpene enhanced hydration packs now which will boost the smell of your weed with flavours like gas, candy, sour and purple.
Ye Integra do a two way infusion pack probably worth a try if you ever don’t like the flavour of something
You can also make your own with vape terps dripped on cotton wool in a pierced bag.
You can change the smell which is a large part of the flavour but you can't get rid of the original flavour if you don't like it, only add notes to alter it, probably better used to enhance existing flavours and intensify the lost smells of dead bud.

Makes me love my moron of a postman too.
I thought I had to travel to the states or Amsterdam to try D9, Vapes, Edibles and stuff like that!
I’ve really only hated my purchases like 3 times and my local guy used to disappoint me twice a week.
Shout out to RealD for the best shake on the planet. DiamondExtracts for great deals on D9. THEGREENTEAM for both one gram flavour deals and tasty vapes.
JustWeed for the fastest delivery I’ve had.
& maybe Nfused, I had the nicest flavour vape I’ve ever tried but one of the two just didn’t work properly and I’ve just never been back. But the gelato 33 was incredible.
I love this place 💚

Completely agree. I'm still excited by the postie arriving. I've also made a concerted effort to get to know all my postmen. The last fella would sign parcels for me and stick them through the letter box when I wasn't in. Am working on the new guy.
My postman is a fuckin geezer . To the point where I’ve actually trusted him to sign for my signed for deliveries if I’m not going to be in. He even takes my bins in for me if I’m out at work proper going that extra step. As BB said, just a £20 at Christmas time or Easter or something doesn’t half make his day/week/month but also reminds me that he’s keeping me sane by handing me these parcels!
I made friends with my old postie so he'd sign stuff when I wasn't home and post it anyway. I'm working on my new guy now.
If you leave a note saying to post anything that fits, that gives them something to photograph for the delivery.
Remember to tip that 'moron' at Christmas time.
Mine gets a score every Christmas.
This year i may get him gloves too.

This year i may get him gloves too.
I’ve know him for 15 years, he’s probably suspicious at how nice I have been since April 😅 he will most definitely be in for a score this year, the two of my regular ones! He’d be up for a blowjob if he was a little earlier in the day for my by 1pm’s 😂
Some good recommendations there. Did you contact NFUSED, he might've sent you out another vape. All your local vendors will be hand delivering before 1PM now!
Was the first time I negative reviewed anybody and he inboxed me because I changed my review from a 10 to a 4. Might have crapped my pants and told him I was afraid of accepting anything as goodwill and changed it back to a 10 and deleted my review.
I wouldn't have thought it would've been any bother for him to send out another vape, most vendors would rather keep their customers happy.
I can find you the transcript if you really want it but, I just felt like I wouldn’t trust it after that situation. The one that worked made me love vapes. But I don’t want to die because I left a bad review 😂
It's always very exciting. Ordering loads can feel like Christmas. Postie is sound, fortunately. It's sort of waring off for me after over 18 months of being on here. Almost.
The immediate inner smile when I see them is pure xtc.
Got my first REALD skittles shake on its way.. looking forward👀.
( Shout to my man Brent-🤝🏻)

Really is up there as my favourite Product/Vendor. Excited to order some D9 this week too to make Christmas Chocolates 😋
Newbie here myself, think I'll be here to stay that's for sure. I usually get for me and my dad from a postal vendor and it's nice to see that they are in here as well! Oh my days I'm actually drooling at the hash selection.
Really don’t think I’ll ever visit a street dealer or whatever again, turned into one myself making chocolates! 😂🤣 my dad has Parkinson’s and I’ve been making him 50mg chocolates from D9
Couldnt agree more with the dealer comment , my dealer must think ive emigrated . 😂 and on the postie man subject , our postie is top notch , as he signs parcels for me that come needing a siggy (tut tut vendors). And dont look ya average postie having tattoos up his chops . But what a legend of a bloke . Big up postie , never judge a book by its cover 🏆
Yup , still love to hear that rattle of the letterbox when I'm waiting, street dealers are for emergency situations only
I love receiving parcels from LB, when I hear the beep from the postie when he scans my parcel and posts it through my letterbox I’m grinning from ear to ear 😊
I love LB and the community we have here it’s awesome 💚

WHATS THE BEST? dry herb vapouriser for those on a budget?
just bought a cheap vape on amazon- The ANIX Pathfinder-steam machine. doesn't seem very good! anyone here got any experience on the matter? or has anyone got one for sale?
I’ve had the Xmax V3 for a couple of months, absolutely great device but make sure you get dosing capsules if you get one as it saves a lot of hassle cleaning.
I also had to get a new one because I tried concentrate in the concentrate cup and it leaked out and ruined my oven I probably just done something wrong but just some merging to be wary of.

A dab pen works loads better for extracts. I've got quite a basic one - utillian v2. Was like fifty quid. Will probably upgrade it as it's a pain to clean but it works really well and it's pocket sized.

I did the same thing a few years back, finally settled on an Arizer Solo 2 which ended up feeling more like a waste of money, i wish id saved up and got a Mighty first time around as that's what I'm saving for now, although the dogs latest visit to the vets has just disappeared 160 sheets from the "GetMeAMighty" jar so i might be joining you on the Xmax V3 gravy train for the foreseeable...
Another vote for the XmaX V3 here, if you can find a second hand pax in good condition you might pull a dub

Dynavap is a solid £50 vape, but you have to get used to heating it and it works better at home or with zero wind.
Once I was used to it I preferred it to my PAX 3 because better flavour, cleaning and no charging.
Tinymight 2 is an amazing vape for anyone spending S&B money - hits like a desktop on the go and rips through a water rig at home.
Other less expensive options worth looking into are: the Terpsicle and lotus by vapman -these require a water pipe of sorts tho.

I honestly think the dynavap in my hands is an accident waiting to happen (advise given in https://littlebiggy.com/viewSubject/p/4817403)
I am now looking into Terpsicle and lotus by vapman thankyou!!!

I bought a Spirit for less than a ton at the local head shop Does the trick. I then got a crafty+ which isn't budget but was a significantly better experience.
dynavap maybe. It’s abit fiddly and there’s abit of a learning curve but once it becomes 2nd nature it’s great
cheers zoonless! looking at the dynavap rabbit hole right now!
torch it when it clicks vape it.
bloody hell!

Save up and get one of the slightly more expensive mate.
Second hand is an option too.
Happy to send you free (used) dynavap to use while you save for something else mate 😜
Dm me if you want it

I have been researching this exact same topic (also looking to switch to dry herb vaping). The two gold standard "budget" vapes are the XMAX V3 Pro and the Arizer Solo 2. I say budget in quotes because they will still set you back £100. As I understand it though, vapes are a market where you buy cheap, you buy twice.
The advantage of the XMAX V3 Pro is that it has an "on demand" mode (where you can heat the chamber for single hit as and when the mood takes you). The Solo 2 is a little better built and more stealthy. Otherwise, they are functionally the same.
If you want cheaper, then I would say dynamax range. They are manual heating, so there is a "hidden" cost of buying a decent lighter and learning to use it. However, I have seen other people here raving about them, so likely worth it for the long haul.
Dunno how much this counts, but I am looking to buy a XMAX V3 Pro myself.

I'm not sure where you are researching but the solo isn't great for existing smokers due to the slow extraction speed
Also it's not stealthier than the V3 in reality
Functionally they both extract weed but that's where the differences end
Solo is a predominantly a sipper this is because of the weak heater and the fact it needs the glass stem to heatsoak before you can start to extract nicely
Think of a McDonald's milkshake and that's the draw resistance
V3 is convection biased and you have a more open airflow in it but you will use a completely different style of inhalation to extract
V3 would be my choice for anyone who smokes out of those two

I have been using an XMax V3 Pro for quite sometime now and would recommend it
Got mine for around £80 with a glass water bubbler on sale
Only issue I have with it is that I wish the oven was bigger so I can add more bud

Terpcicle is decent, I use it with a globe or j-hook. Needs to be heated with a torch. Can stick hash or concentrate on top of the bud.
I don't use it as much as the Crafty+, however I'd say it better for a quick extraction. You can really load it too in comparison. It's just not as convenient, can't use a torch all the time with others around.
I did get a cheap glass one from Aliexpress and it broke after a couple of goes, not worth it for a cheaper one thereal TRWW one is far superior.

Forgot to add.
You should keep an eye out in the 2nd hand markets. People like the idea and loose interest.
I’ve done very well using that route.
There is always plenty kicking about.

If you’re looking at circa 100 quid then maybe too cheap for you.
A mate bought me a Yokan Evolve (was £22 on EBay). It’s really only good for one, maybe two tokes at a time before it needs a refill, but a year later and it’s still going strong. I still have the spare heating chamber it came with too.
I soak the chamber and lid in isopropyl fairly regularly.
Anyway, thought I’d chip in. Hope you find something you like 👍

Under a ton the Xmax V3 pro or the Dynavap are probably your best bets. I haven't tried the X-Max myself but the folks on the interwebs rate it. Dynavaps might hit a bit harder and probably better for hash or concentrates (b/c they can get to higher temps - use them on top of a bed of degummed hemp fibre or flower for this). On the other hand, they are a bit more fiddly and if you need to be stealthy, then butane lighter powered vapes are not the best choice. If you use mostly bud and want to use it on the go outside sometimes then maybe try the XMax. You can get 10% off from Vapefiend with the code 420, which will get you a V3 for £79 or a Dynavap M for £58 (you will also need a jet lighter for the Dynavap).
No worries, you might end up with more than one anyway as vapes are like that! Hope you find one that does the trick for you.
Rabb1t is your man for recommendations.
What price point are you comfortable with? Relax, and someone will hopefully be with you shortly.

If you save a wee bit more you can get the pax 2 or 3 for around 80-120 the pax 3 allows for trates also, ✌️

yep plenty folks here looking for clean, reasonably priced budget options, as well as fancy stuff.
if you're friendly, conscientious and professional I'm sure there's room for you to do well.
Good luck! :-)

What shipping options do people on here prefer let us know
T24 is my preference. It's not quite the roll of the dice of standard first class but doesn't require the commitment of a special delivery. Basically …
I only use T24 (no signature)
I have the NDSD option if people want to but I feel T24 is the standard.

No SNDD or signed for options personally due to plausible deniability and having to be at location. T24 or T48 best for both parties IMO

A seasons greetings to all my biggas new and old alike.

For those that don’t know, Dopeys been around a fair bit now. I believe originally offering “skunk bars”.
Love him or hate him, the marketing is strong with this one and I think I even snapped when an advert was in a thread I was chatting on 😂
Anyway, spotted a post from Dopey about the prices of the high ends and that he had stuff to equal or better it….
While we won’t get into the whole silly price weed convo, it was like a red rag to a bull..
For science and Biggas info, I dm’d Dopey for a split on the half oz.
Stealth box was solid no reason to suspect anything else. The next hit had me laughing nostalgic thoughts as the “baggies / wrappers) was like the seal wrapper from a box of cigs you’d use in school to make a bag and seal it with a lighter 😂
Anyway, as nostalgic as it was and didn’t bother me. When I tore it open with my teeth like a fuxking animal it split and flew everywhere lol
Tiny point if people don’t have jars or tins etc. or just don’t be an animal like apex 😂
Soon as I tore them open it fucking stank, so much so, Mrs Apex walked in the office and went “ohhhh” like an old granny “it stinks of strong cannabis in here like when you grew” 😮
I grinned, ignored her and carried on
The buds are very dense / compact, no drama for me it’s the case with many. I find airing it before going in jar with boveda helps but could be skunk bro science 😂
Back to that smell and it’s what I would describe as skunk musk, almost like a body odour or someone sweating kush from their pores.
Backnotes of a similar smell for me of cookies or cake variety. Reminds me of ice cream cake perhaps but only after the skunk musk 🤤
Grinds and rolled quite fine and the joint was a 3/4 long but quite fat..
Light it up and got a lovely cherry burning even 👍
The first toke It was like being hit by the grinch grin, it was right up my street and one of the stand out flavours and smoothness / cleanliness of smoke if that makes sense.
Just glided down and could take big tokes without summoning the cough demons 🤣
Smell is like the taste to me, it’s a savoury number this. Musty, earthy, skunky and kushy with a tang of cake terp on the exhale.
The burn on this was up there with the best tbh. Clean as a whistle, even from start to finish with no need to course correct.
Palest grey to white ash for those that care. 🤜
Wee little ring as she burned and juiced the rest of the joint with a bit of yummy looking shine 🤤🤤🤤🤤
For me it’s a very good example and for my pallet a contender for fav this year.
I will highlight again that those looking tropical, creamy or sweet this won’t be for you.
But if you like a bit of old skunk musk like diving headfirst into a musty vag, then give this a try.
It’s punching above the price imo.
Got the Chimera lined up for after work and then sherbanger will be part 3 of the 4 Apex Xmas specials 😂
Merry Xmas nice and early for those that lurk or I won’t chat to before hand

31/03/25 update
Loved this before so though I’d grab a tasty treat for after my endless chores for Mrs apex Mother’s Day….
Bud smells nice and good poignant green to it too. Slight floral scent that I don’t recall from before, but then pungent BO like musky dankness.
Bit of a grinder miracle or I severely misjudged, but the bud I put it fluffed up to an absolutely fatty of a joint that old apex will struggle to roll with his fat fingers, sweaty from chores.
Still, I managed it and light up with a coffee in the garden (looking at the list and real life items on the list) 😭
Terps is nice and like wants to be one flavour then switches around to something more musky and savoury! Yum
I love this, and it burns really even and clean in a pure J.
Suns come out, and I’m battling the drifting mind Vs the list of chores.
Will I make it, will I fall asleep in the sun only for Mrs apex to come back and catch me and 🦨 will be no more.
Find out next time

Need recommendations on vapes desk top or handheld not really a budget just want to stop smoking

From what I have heard, DHVs are a 'buy cheap, buy twice' product. Budget permitting, I would avoid anything less than $100 or so.
I have a Crafty+ which has served me well over the past year. It is a little feature light, and the battery could be better, but you could not ask for a better starter DHV.
If you can afford a pricier one, I would get that instead. But I don't think you can go far wrong either.

i use a storm a very good small DHV, top tip if you can take the filters out of the mouth peice, they clog up with oil that should be in your lungs. puff slowly.
Hi mate, ive been vaping for 2 years and have had most of the top rated vaporizers available. The sticky brick runt is on another level dude I haven’t really used the screwball since I got the brick, the mighty is a close second for me, I wish it was a desktop.
Personally have a plenty, volcano and mighty .
The bag for the volcano gets on my tits tho it just rustles in the background forever.
Not that I'm a storz and bickel fan 😉.

Volcano is definitely worth it, my digit lasted 7 years with no repairs. Could’ve sent it to S&B for repair but I purchased a Mighty so I could use it out and about. That being said there are so many devices available that are worth their price points, I am biased towards S&B as I’ve had great experiences with their products while lacking any with the competitors.
I’ve heard bags are superior to the whip but plenty still use the whip so it’s likely just personal preference I can’t imagine it being so different.

Best two portable vapes I’ve tried. I gave up smoking overnight no nicotine now for 4 years.
Best two portable vapes I’ve tried. I gave up smoking overnight no nicotine now for 4 years.
ruby twist (desktop dhv) + microdose bowl + the orb wpa (off dhgate, get the one with the broad base). total about £200. bob's your uncle.
there's nothing available atm that smokes like a joint otherwise i'd be using it. this is the best value desktop dhv around and wh'en you dial in your preferences it's a comparable strength of high to smoking. go in knowing that you'll never get the same kind of intensity of hit absent the toxins produced by combustion. but you can easily get massive clouds of vapour every time, you'll feel like a fucking fog machine. and then the high itself is usually more of a creeper, a more gentle builder. it reaches the same heights but because you dont get that same immediate smash hit from smoking it can be a psychological hurdle to overcome for some.
if you like hash, just be sure to make all your sausages as slim as possible to maximise the surface area for the heat to penetrate. most people vaping hash waste in a lifetime product equivalent in size and weight to a juvenile sperm whale, so dont be like them.

+1 for Ruby twist and glass piece!
I can’t highlight enough how much of. Step up these were from the mighty for me, heck I’d even argue it trumps me old volcano.
Flavour is INCREDIBLE and can get you ripped quick with little herb used!
I went with the chugga jug which is very well made imo.
Considering they can be cheaper / same price as a mighty I would never recommend the mighty over these again.
Only issue is, if you want a portable vape as these aren’t going anywhere without some additional power supply 🤣
Anyone serious about switching from smoking should consider these first. MUCH more vape produced and can get a nice throat hit too that doesn’t tickle 😎

I have a Crafty+ for day to day, Terpcicle (requires butane) and a Glenn Briars Hash Pipe for you guessed it hash (and concentrates), this also requires the use of a torch. All are really good bits, I have also got a Dynavap but didn't like it at all. Out of all the Terpcicle is my favourite but I have to limit the use on it or I end up using far too much weed.
Honestly got to put in a word for the PAX. Had a PAX 2 for years and it's still going strong. Pretty cheap and good for stealth vaping when you're out

Cannabis 101: myrcene the most dominant terp
Myrcene is the dominant terpene in the majority of cannabis strains. It begins to vaporise at 167*C for those of you who don't combust. Responsible primarily for a clove/mango flavour and it's sedating, muscle relaxing effects. Little research has been done into this compound, but of those conducted, there are some very promising result.
Myrcene is most prominently found in hops, and the holy basil plant. Contrary to popular belief, it is only a minor component of mango at about 1mg/kg; much lower than the 20mg/g concentration found in some strains. The dominant terpene in mangoes is in fact: pinene. For those who wish to read further, see here: https://littlebiggy.net/link/3Mmq7J
The benefits: relaxation, muscle relief, sleep aid, antimicrobial, anti tumour and anti-inflammatory - but just how valid are these claims?
First, we must understand something about natural medicines and big pharma. So little research has been done into many compounds. If you ever wondered why, simply consider profitability. Many natural medicines cannot be patented, myrcene included. Therefore, there is simply a lack of profit motive to make a coherent study about myrcene. As such, much of what I am about to say comes from small datasets with poor verification.
It is known that terpenes can affect the binding affinity of THC to the CB1 receptor to a small degree, potentially explaining the subjective effects of strains when combined with the entourage of minor cannabinoids in each strain.
Myrcene has been proven to be antimicrobial to the extent that many organic compounds found in plants are. Think menthol. Certainly it makes the teeth feel clean, but doesn't exactly pull the legwork of the Colgate. Certainly, we can verify this claim.
Some smaller studies into subjective effects show the muscle relaxant, and sleep aid effects. Again, poor data sets. Most of which were clinical trials conducted by folks adjacent to the aromatherapy industry. Subjectively, these claims are true from my experience, but the data is sadly lacking.
Finally, the claims of sleep aid and muscle relaxant show some genuine promise, with several studies showing that myrcene acts as a sedative hypnotic, promoting sleep. One study even found subjects who had taken myrcene experienced impaired driving ability due to these effects. Provided further studies continue to verify these claims, we may soon be able to happily verify myrcene as a sedative hypnotic compound responsible for the sleepier effects of cannabis.
Well, that's about all I can find. For further information and sources, please ask :)

Nice write up man. I'm finding these interesting to read. I've long since been interested in the effects of flavour on my buzz as my preferences are for taste over pure strength. So something is working some magic in there.
:) Appreciate the support. It's flavour over strength any day of the week for me. After all, why skip the foreplay? Plants truly are magical, and cannabis is a special lady.
That's the thing though isn't it. It doesn't completely make sense based on the current model of thc gets you high. If that was the size of it we could all just take pills. There's something far more complex occurring when we smoke.
My folks are wine drinkers. Basically posh alcoholics I guess. It's interesting that they routinely pick the same wines on repeat. Whereas a smoker's more likely to leap on a new flavour to see how it is.
I'm glad you're exploring it and opening the discussion here. I'm looking forward to reading your topics.

Cannabis 101: what are terpenes?
Terpenes are the naturally occurring volatile aromatic compounds that give cannabis strains their unique flavour, aroma and effects. Through the proposed mechanism of the entourage effect, terpenes modulate the effects of THC on the CB1 receptor by interacting with the binding affinity between compound and receptor. The end result is a variety of different therapeutic effects for the user. Through an understanding of terpenes and their interaction with the body, we are able to intuit potential medical applications of these therapeutic effects. Of course, as with all fields, further study is needed for conclusive results to be attained.
Terpenes in fact occur naturally in most plants giving them their unique flavour and aroma. Likewise, many of the carts you purchase use botanically derived terpenes from other plants, as they exist in higher concentrations and the starting material is generally cheaper. Most notoriously, black pepper is known to contain high concentrations of caryophyllene, and ripe mangoes a high concentration of myrcene. From an objective point of view, these are chemically identical to those naturally occurring in cannabis but often-times make for a worse subjective experience for the end user than naturally derived terpenes from full spectrum extraction of the cannabis plant. Unfortunately this is still a mystery to science, but my gut feeling is that we are getting the blends wrong.
Terpenes are incredibly volatile, and will degrade when exposed to air, and excessive temperatures. Extraction methods for concentrates need to be highly sensitive to preserve as much of this natural goodness as possible. Many recommend the bodeva pack – correct moisture levels are fantastic for retaining terpenes, but I often find these remove some terpene content from the flower. Newer technologies like the grove bag promise to maintain the correct humidity level whilst avoiding this problem, but from experience, trichomes are sometimes attracted to the side of these bags through static. A nice curing jar is the best way to keep things as nature intended. Make sure to keep it away from sunlight, or purchase a UV proof jar.
Next week, I will be doing an interview depth analysis of the research on a particular terpenes, if anyone would like to suggest one, let me know.
All the best, Fin

Thank you kindly, my friend 😊
I've been doing a little write up on myrcene (my personal favourite terpene) ready for the weekend, and I will be referencing all data available to me. If there is anything cannabis related you'd like to know about from a scientific point of view, do let me know
Keep up the ramblings/reviews, they are pure gold.

That's the dominant terps in orange bud isn't it? If so you're along the right lines for sure!
Indeed, and one of the most common terpenes in cannabis. It surprised me to find out that few orange strains are high in limonene. After all, limonene is the dominant aroma compound in orange peels.
Orange buds do seem to have a higher variety of minor terpenes than other strain families, which is very intriguing.

I remember years ago picking up gorilla glue for first time. Was very strong. But at the expense of everything else. Not much taste or anything. I didn't love it nearly as much as the less strong but more tasty bit I had. That could of course be for many reasons but I remember back then I started to question how much flavour had to play in the experience. It's interesting to read about the complexities.
A lot of orange strains aren't descendants of the original orange bud as far as I know. Usually I can taste it in strains and jump onto leafly to check if it's in there somewhere - like in some cherry or tropical strains.

It's been a long while since I've seen any gorilla glue about. It's unfortunate that the piece you had didn't shine - it's usually home to such a unique piney aroma!
I've certainly come to a similar conclusion: flavour and aroma has a huge impact on the objective effects, and a smaller but noticeable effect on the objective strength.
The cheese of old used to be my favourite. Notoriously terpene rich, but usually testing on the lower end of THC. Thinking back, I can almost remember it lasting longer than other strains, too.
There are many ways to skin a cat, and orange flavours have cropped up in many genetic lineages

Did you do any research into the bros science of eating mangos while using weed.
I looked a while back and the amount of mango you would need to eat to get a similar amount of myrcene to a bowl of weed was ludicrous
My personal belief is that terpenes and there flavour profiles set the mental expectations of the incoming high and it's the minor noids that create the differences like couch lock and head high, hence why disty carts do sod all for pain relief for me but flower can be significantly more effective.

The mango myth can(?) mostly be dispelled. An average mango weighing some 200g, and a myrcene content of only ~1mg/kg on the high end pails in comparison to the ~20mg/g found in some strains. I've yet to try eating 20kg of mango and some distillate to see if this differs from some distillate and no mangoes - I'm too sane to run this experiment on myself, but if there are any takers, give me shout!
So, why is the mango myth only mostly dispelled?
Well, myrcene isn't the dominant terpene in mangoes there are 15 major terpenes in mangoes. It's in fact pinene, and at a much much higher concentration than myrcene (a few mg/kg). A single fresh mango does indeed contain a similar quantity of terpenes to a gram of fresh cannabis. Neither truth tells us much about whether mangoes affect your high, because this hasn't actually directly been studied.
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6807195/
Here is a nice article showing the chemical composition of mangoes.
You may have noticed I attached an image. This is taken from this article:
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9457791/
The graphs demonstrate clearly that terpenes do have a minor influence on the CB1 receptor in the absence of THC and there is no data for with the presence of THC. Annoyingly so close to useful data!
Minor cannabinoids do play a major minor role in the effects, and this (possibly) together with the imbalance of terpenes relative to the authentic strain might account for your lack of pain relief!
I guess the answer to all your questions is maybe? 🤔
I for one am a huge advocate for the power of placebo. Believe it will work, and it might just work.
All the best my man

Which was your favourite overall - or are they in order? I'm looking for a new cart. Currently I have a 50/50 live resin distillate cart that's running low. It was harsh to vape until I bought a variable temp battery which made loads of difference. What do you reckon is the smoothest to use out of the various types - distillate, shatter, live resin, mixes etc. Half the reason I've not ordered another one yet is I'm bewildered by all the options.
It's hard to pick one but here are my favorite two overall for different reasons:
Vape Boutique's 100% LR carts for the best flavor and a more full spectrum high. Super smooth, draws very consistently, good hardware and packaging.
Canadian Import's distilly carts for just getting straight up fried off of a little amount, choice of terps is always good. Smoothest distilly you'll find probably, good hardware and packaging. Shame they seem to be focusing on disposables more because I also much prefer carts, have tried the disposables with the variable temp but still doesn't hit the same.
Dr. Distillate's 50/50 shatter carts were probably the smoothest and best drawing UK carts here but they are gone now :(
Generally 100% resin and rosin are usually the smoothest for me though.
Currently eyeing up the Strawberry Guava Z from Vape Boutique and of course when CI has a sale, it's compulsory to grab some more Unicorn Piss :)

Hash
Hello all, not really a big hash person but recently found a liking for it more. Only thing is there’s all these different types of hash. What is exactly the best type and value worth. For example this 90u/120u what exactly is the difference and why is it more pricey? Thanks LB
Cannabis is first dried and then filtered through a mesh screen. The 90/120u refers to the spacing on the screen used to filter the hash. 1 u is 1/1000th of a mm. Typically hashes are first sifted at a higher size like 200u, then through increasingly finer meshes to get finer and finer products.
120u is about as big as a nice mature trichome head will be, and 90u is about as small as a nice mature trichome head gets. Sizes below this don't necessarily result in a purer hash however, as too much below this, we start getting immature trichome heads.
The price difference comes from the fact less end product will come out of a finer mesh filter, so the economy does what it does and charges more 😀
As far as quality, I like hash. About 90u is the sweet spot and marginally worth it (even at the additional cost) compared to a 120u.
This being said, bubble hash, which uses frozen cannabis (not dried) and a similar sifting process, extracts more of the good stuff .
120u is about as big as a nice mature trichome head will be, and 90u is about as small as a nice mature trichome head gets. Sizes below this don't necessarily result in a purer hash however, as too much below this, we start getting immature trichome heads.

They are different meshes for the sift process. filtering for bigger and smaller trichomes that dont fit through other sift meshes.
So basically just down to the process, would you say that it’s worth the money compared to ‘normal’ hash? Is it better to pay that extra for static
Some of the fancy hashes absolutely blow your mind man. Usually I'll use hash as a joint topper. Some of the cold cure and frozen hashes are fantastically strong though and a world away from the commercial hashes and much stronger than weed on its own. I wrote about the Piatella recently which I linked here.

Some of the more expensive ones taste like weed now so know what you mean. I've been enjoying the Calibull from TheGoodStuff, reminds me of an old school kind of hash but nice and strong.
The Afghan gold seal from GC is a lovely authentic hash with an old school black flavour. It's one of my favourites here. I might do a full write up later now I'm thinking about it.
Simpson Kush from GAW has more of a rocky taste that you may be looking for and it has a decent stone for a commercial hash.

Hi i have the PK gold seal in my basket thanks for the recommendation it sounds like what im looking for, cheers paul.
It's not Afghan at all is it! But everything else was correct. It's a lovely old tasting hash. I've bought it 3 or 4 times now.
how is the strength? im not looking for anything to blow my head off just a nice chilled smoke that tastes good hopefully
I was just about to paste the link to your shop!
Tried 3 hashes from babbstar: Albuquerque, Barbara, Pineapple. All fucking beautiful.
Going to order some CaliGlue tomorrow :)
Edit a few weeks later: the CaliGlue is fire as well. Using it sparingly, vaping with some lovely buds from greencat 🥵

It's comparable to decent commercial hash. It's not going to really blow your head off like a cold cure jungle boys or barz LA but there's a decent stone to it. I roll it with bud usually. The smell and taste of the hash completely dominates. Tastes almost medicinal. I'm definitely doing a write up later.
oooh you have me excited now, order in :D hopefully lands tomorrow, need a break from the heavy thc strains just want something to chill with, the fact you say it dominates the taste/smell is exactly what i was after thanks again for your recommendation, cheers paul
I did the write up I mentioned earlier. Probably got a wee bit carried away to be fair.
I can't recommend the decarb hash from odin enough. I'm a seasoned smoker, been puffing about 20/21 years nearly and this stuff put me on my ass last year. I was the highest I've been in ages 🤣 not a bad price on it tbf
I would say anything from Babbstar1 menu is spot on. He’s super quick with his delivery as well. His descriptions are reliable.
I can also recommend thegoodstuff, delivery not as quick but quality and value is great.
Eddys hashbar is another one. His stuff will knock you on your arse, prob the best for flavour as well.
All top stuff.

Who has the best tasting Haze?
Can't help you with this one - I'm pretty haze averse.
Who has the best tasting Haze?
For me around 2008-2012 was the peak of haze in the uk depending on where you're from anyway, super silver, lemon haze, amnesia haze, g13 it was all so good and the taste was crazy, not like the almost synthetic taste you get with todays uk hazes, i did lose all hope before, thinking it was gone forever until i tried some from a friend in the real world and it was 95% the same as i remembered, proper amsterdam type sweet, creamy, spicy tasting haze, cured to perfection and covered in so many trichomes it looked almosty dusty or covered in sand. i havent been to dam for years so im not sure what its like over there anymore, maybe i need to take a trip lol.
Eddy's got the Amnesia Haze I would say that is my favourite haze, although I did enjoy the tropical haze from ThatGuyForBud
Happy shopping 💚

Amnesia and strawberry haze were the ones for me mate.

I’d like to throw my hat into the ring, the bit of haze we’ve just brought out will have reminiscent of your youth

Nearly picked DGT but 7g put me off slightly incase i was stuck with 7g of no terp haze lol, im sure there stuff is not like that but id rather test a smaller amount first.
Ah i completely get that, usually the same way myself.
I was just initially drawn in by my cravings for sweet sweet lemon haze.

Haze der, ya kno dat! I still remember the 2008-2012 weed. To this day I have a weed unicorn (roast chicken weed) and rare strain that not many people actually remember, from doing research I think it's something to do with dirty filtration system that gave it the chicken taste. Honestly it was like you'd rolled a joint inside of a roast chicken walkers crisp 👀🔥💚
My sub question is, do you think we've already passed the greatest era for ganj? Or is there better things to come?

ahaha mate i know exactly what you mean, i had some once that tasted like beef space raiders and smelt exactly the same, weirdly it was quite nice weed :D
Sadly i think them days are gone, the weed these days is good, flavorful and strong but its always the same fruit rs11 or gassy or cali type terps it just gets a bit boring after a while, we want that sweet sweet haze!

Even just a decent blue cheese like it used to be would do me. Closest I've come to beef terps was some wagyu, savoury almost. Need some old school strains in my life!

sounds lovely, looks like there selling any haze now under that listing as this doesnt taste of anything and doesnt really look like the pics either sadly, just bog standard ammy.
thanks i actually just got some of this sadly i didnt taste much, but it was nice stuff never the less, effects wise and price etc so couldnt knock it, just not what i was looking for in terms of taste.
Hi paul , i did enjoy arjans strawb haze from tgt , and wanna try nevilles haze from dapper . But will stress im no haze connoisseur. 🏆🏆
Sorry to hear that man, If my opinion doesn’t match the description I put these things down to being a natural product, it’s just so hard to control every factor throughout the whole process… I’ve bought more expensive weed and been just as disappointed as you are hoping for certain terps… it’s how the cookie crumbles…. what ever system GAW are using it’s consistent & efficient , they have a wide selection so batch date may be a bit past best before I imagine but that comes with volume I suppose. I try most new bud I get on the vape to taste it properly often smoke the rest then… how do you consume ?
no biggie, i understand vendors cant keep the same strain 24/7 all year round and some batches will be better than others, its just the way the cookie crumbles, the hunt goes on :D

Hey biggas,
We are sure it's a mistake as this bud is absolutely amazing, even got a 500g restock of it. But whoever left the 1/10, can you please change it (or if it isn't a mistake) please explain what makes it a 1/10? Thank you in advance.

What an absolute buffoon of a guy, thinking Tracked 24 is next day delivery. It even states on RM webiste that it's not a guarantee.
Scoring 1/10 for an Royal Mail issue and blaming the seller for it is absolute madness.

i agree this buyer needs to have a better understanding of how RM operates, and relax a little (or a lot). and leaving 1/10 'placeholder' reviews seems nonsensical and unfair to vendors, when there's zero pressure to review until a product has been received and sampled.
a gentle request though, from me:
clearly the vast majority of us here want LB to be a supportive and friendly community. with that in mind, maybe we can all refrain from name-calling - e.g. buffoon, cunt - even when someone is behaving foolishly?
i don't see how name-calling helps anything, even in circumstances like this where there are strong opinions and folks feel that someone is clearly in the wrong.
if we want a friendly, supportive community without undue unpleasantness, we all have to work towards creating and maintaining that.
sorry if this sounds a bit preachy or sanctimonious, i don't want to sound like i'm giving a lecture. but the name calling makes me feel really uncomfortable. and i appreciate this community and the ways in which it, for the most part, isn't toxic like social media.

Turns out this fella left the 1/10 because his order placed on a Thursday didn't arrive the next day. (which with the policy we had at the time would've been sent on the Friday, the 10pm cutoff policy didn't come into place until the 9th of Feb which was a Sunday... 2 days after he ordered.)
User is "lp9319", if you don't want your ratings sabotaged because of an impatient customer (their order is still in transit and has been since Friday) do not serve this customer up. They have since been permanently blacklisted from ordering from our shop, we will not stand for this off any customer.

"... adjust my rating once I can actually try the product..."
So it's 1/10 because of RM? Entirely proportionate and reasonable response IMO.
If multi-billion dollar, global businesses with their own delivery network can manage to get shit to you on time, then why can't you?
Presumably you think that just because you are selling illegal drugs and are entirely dependent on a third party for delivery, that you should get some leeway?
lp9319 needs to get onto Trading Standards pronto! And possibly a strongly worded letter to their MP or contacting their bank for a refund.
PS Just checked the reviews: they just left a 1/10, with no context (eg "no idea if it's any good, it hasn't arrived"). #WAC

Wait, so he expected you to post it Thursday night, after the post offices are closed? Plus, RM don't deliver Sundays. So, went out Friday, meaning Saturday and Monday are only two days, not 5.
if u wanna take it public, i’ll address it here. tracked 24 means next-day delivery. if it was sent friday like u claim, it should’ve been here saturday or monday at the latest. it’s tuesday now and still nothing. ignoring my messages and then trying to publicly shame me for holding u accountable is a joke. i’ve been a loyal customer, but this is appalling service. instead of blaming me or making excuses, maybe fix the situation and take some responsibility.
just to clarify for everyone: i placed my order on thursday, before the vendor’s new cutoff policy even existed, so it should’ve been handled under the old process. also, ur point about the 10 pm cutoff policy coming in on the 9th is irrelevant. i ordered on the 6th, so that policy doesn’t even apply to my order. they claim it was sent friday, but tracked 24 means next-day delivery, so even with delays, it should’ve been here by now.
i only left the 1/10 as a placeholder because i was being ignored and had no idea what was going on. lb allows u to edit ratings for a reason, and i fully intended to adjust it once i got my package. instead of replying or sorting this out, the vendor ignored me for days and then tried to publicly shame me. if this is how they handle things, this definitely isn't the right shop for me. glad to take my business elsewhere

You got it wrong in your first sentence. Tracked24 does NOT mean next-day delivery.

so we’re back to blaming the customer instead of taking any responsibility. t24 is advertised as next-day delivery and usually arrives next day when sent on time. even if we go with your ‘1–3 day’ claim, it’s tuesday now, which is past even that window. this isn’t about royal mail; it’s about you ignoring my messages for days and then acting like that’s acceptable service. if there was a delay, you could’ve communicated that instead of going straight to public shaming.
also, your comment about the new policy on the 9th is still irrelevant since my order was placed on the 6th. the cutoff you keep mentioning doesn’t apply to me. instead of throwing quotes at me to look smart, maybe focus on fixing your communication and delivery issues.

We aim to deliver T24 within 24 hours of receipt, and we meet that target 88% (roughly) of the time. We will not regard a parcel as late until 10 working days have passed.
To guarantee 24 hours you need Special Delivery. HTH.

The vendor doesn't hand deliver it, that's Royal Mails job. You're holding SotL accountable for Royal Mail delays, you realise that, right? RM state that with Tracked 24, they aim to deliver next day. That's not a guarantee, you want 100% guarantee, you prefer Special Next Day Delivery. That's why it's more expensive. Sure, should've arrived on Monday, but it'll arrive today. Did you even ask SotL to track it for you? Or just straight in go with a 1/10? You clearly don't understand how reviews work.
Also, what were you expecting them to 'sort out'? A reship? It's not even been a few days.

Exactly our sentiment, this kind of practice has stifled sales for products in the past and we've been left lumbered with perfectly good flower as someone decides to go and pull a stunt like this...
Oh well. Personally we don't think he'll change it, nor are we all that bothered if he does, this is a top quality product at a great price and we're sure it'll continue to sell just fine now that the air has been cleared.

so now it’s about name-calling and playing the victim instead of addressing the actual issue? i’m not the one ignoring messages for days, failing to meet delivery expectations, and then trying to flip the blame when called out. tracked 24 is supposed to be reliable, and my order still hasn’t arrived, but instead of taking responsibility, you’re doubling down and trying to paint me as the problem. it’s funny how you can put this much energy into public shaming but couldn’t respond to me when i reached out directly.
you keep talking about sales being affected, but if one person leaving a placeholder rating can ‘stifle’ sales, maybe that says more about your service than it does about me. good luck blaming customers for your own mistakes in the future. i’m done here.

I am absolutely sure you'll be devastated when it does arrive (which will probably be tomorrow based on the tracking update) and you realize how nice it is but can't get any more because you've gone and left a "placeholder score"... 🥴.

Look, I’ve made 100s of orders and I get the rage : pain when it don’t come next day.
However, not even SNDD is 100%. RM can fuck you over at the drop of a hat.
I always slap orders in a day or two before i would before to avoid this, even then it still happens.
I’d NEVER 1/10 someone for this though. Just drop them a dm. Some vendors have topped me up, added a little freebie (IF it was their miss)
But otherwise just mark the green on the description when it lands.
The drama and rage on this site is growing 😢 for minor things not worth stressing about imo.
Yeah it sucks when we’ve no weed, but that’s on us for not keeping our stash Jars full enough till the next drop ❤️

did you read my posts? i dropped TWO. u can see my original messages that i sent to him considering he has publicised them even tho i messaged him privately. all my reviews i do are placeholders, i am not the one in the wrong here. exceptional ego from a shitty seller. we could've handled this in private but no no no! let's post this in the forums instead. SOTL is a wanker
"all my reviews i do are placeholders, i am not the one in the wrong here"
Yes. Yes you are.
Even ignoring the doubtful logic of posting "placeholder" reviews, why 1/10 and not 10/10.
Or just do like every-fucking-one-else and post a review once the deal is done?
If everyone is telling you that you're in the wrong, it's likely that you are.

I thought writing a review closed the dispute window so it should only be done once the deal is complete as it complicates any problems.
I'm sure I read that on another thread here - and it makes sense. You can request a late dispute anyway though but if I ever have to I'd rather it be the simplest way.
Um, you are the one in the wrong doing a placeholder review. You review the product after it's arrived and you've tried it. Never before, that's a bloody ridiculous thing to do. Only reason you CAN is because Biggy allows you to change your review, because mistakes can be made. You've just been a cunt for cunts sake, and doubled down lol.
u really think sarcasm and victim-blaming make u look good? i ordered tracked 24 on thursday. if u shipped friday like u claim, it should’ve been here saturday or monday at the latest. it’s now tuesday, and instead of sorting the issue, u are doubling down on insults and shifting blame. calling me a headache, blacklisting me for leaving an honest review, and now trying to act like this is somehow my fault? embarrassing.
communication goes a long way, but instead of replying to my msgs, u chose to publicly shame me and play the victim when u are the one in the wrong. own up to it instead of throwing tantrums and disrespecting paying customers. if this is how u handle issues, no wonder ppl are turned off ordering from u.

Which is down to RM.
"blacklisting me for leaving an honest review"
Bullshit. 1/10 for something you haven't tried and with no context is the complete opposite of honest.

like i said numerous times, i adjust my reviews AFTER trying the product. i received a horrible beforehand service. if the weed is "bomb" like this guy claims, i would've adjusted. but the way he has handled this and publicised this is horrible and i will be editing my review to mention the terrible experience i have received here. all he had to do was NOT publicise it and i would've gave the guy an honest rating after trying but not anymore. extremely poor handling and name calling on his part. i am simply just a guy wanting weed and he has to criticise me for that and ignore my messages for days on end while still being active on the platform. why is the edit review feature on lb? do you know? you don't know any more than me.
Lp9319, The key word here is patience and you have not shown it. Unfortunately 3/4 day waiting time is not enough regardless of the type of delivery. Also the fact that sotl did not reply to your messages immediately cannot be considered a valid reason to review an item without even having tried it. I usually wait 1 week for the parcels to arrive but this time the wait has increased to 2 weeks due to a series of circumstances beyond our control, so you just have to wait. I’m now waiting my parcel too (without weed since yesterday) however I took the opportunity to do a little t-break, considering it's the only thing I can do at the moment. The difference between you and me is that I trust my seller...you not so much I must say 😉
It doesn't matter how many times you say it, giving a pre-emptive shit review and changing it later, is still a dick move.
How is anyone looking at that 1/10 supposed to know it's a) temporary and b) not actually of review of anything?
"i am simply just a guy wanting weed"
No, you're a cunt.
PS Don't worry, I'll come back and edit my review later.

The short answer is yes, littlebiggy is a real online marketplace where users can buy/sell products. This is backed up by;
• An escrow system
• A rating and review system, thousands of positive reviews across seller profiles on LB
• A voting system
• Countless Reddit threads regarding the question: www.reddit.com/r/saplings/comments/vubyag/is_littlebiggyorg_legit/
• LB Trustpilot page: uk.trustpilot.com/review/littlebiggy.net
• Reviews in the topic section of littlebiggy

There are 3 main ways littlebiggy ensures safety for buyers;
• Secure payments;
Payment processors on littlebiggy act as an escrow service, buyers send funds to the payment processor then the funds are released to the seller after 8-13 days.
• Dispute mechanism.
In the case a buyer's order does not arrive/is not as described etc and they can’t reach a resolution with the seller, buyers have the option to make a dispute.
• Rating and review system
The rating and review system on littlebiggy allows users to provide anonymous feedback on products, in turn other user’s can see these reviews and use them to help determine whether a product/seller is genuine or high quality.

There are 4 ways to search for your preferred items;
• ‘Keyword’ function:
On the items page click the ‘keyword’ button.
• Search with your browser on the items page:
On PC/Mac press CTRL+F or Command+F
On mobile click ‘More’ then ‘Find in page’ in Chrome/duckduckgo or click ‘Share’ then ‘Find on page’ in Safari.
• Search engine;
Just search ‘littlebiggy ___’ in your search engine, usually you will find what product/page you're looking for.
• littlebiggy ‘topics’ page
Sellers often advertise and announce promotions here.

H͟o͟w͟ t͟o͟ c͟h͟o͟o͟s͟e͟ a͟ s͟e͟l͟l͟e͟r͟ t͟o͟ b͟u͟y͟ f͟r͟o͟m͟
There are many factors to determine whether a seller is worthy of your business, here are some things to consider before buying;
• The seller’s reviews and ratings:
Ratings and reviews are probably your best ally here, scroll down on the sellers page and you will find the review section. Other Biggaz opinions give you a good idea if a product or seller will be any good. This is not fool-proof though as unfortunately some sellers manipulate this.
• When the seller joined the site
You can check when a seller/any user joined by going to their profile and looking below their profile picture.
• Topic reviews/posts mentioning the seller
Although again not fool-proof, reviews seen on the ‘topics’ page can help you gauge whether a seller or product is worth a go. It is however possible for a seller to make an alt account and big up his product. The best ways to distinguish between bogus posts and genuine ones are by checking if they were posted by active/reputable Biggaz, how many votes the posts/topics have received and who made said votes. Generally speaking most good sellers are too busy to bother with all of this but there are an odd few who try to manipulate it.
• How fast/efficiently does the seller reply to private messages
Communication is key, when buying from a seller you haven’t purchased from before, send them a message and see what their communication game is like. Most of the best sellers here are always active and will reply back within hours.
New buyers;
If you are a new buyer (below 5-10 buys), please check the seller’s profile by clicking on their username, in their ‘manifesto’ they often say whether they accept new buyers or not. If they don’t then consider other options.
5.
H͟o͟w͟ t͟o͟ b͟u͟y͟ o͟n͟ l͟i͟t͟t͟l͟e͟b͟i͟g͟g͟y͟
1) Find your desired product and click ‘buy’
2) Click ‘cart’ in the top left to go to the *checkout* screen.
3) Select your country and type your correct shipping details in the designated boxes.
4) Click on ‘please select shipping’, a drop-down menu will appear and you can select what shipping method you’d like to use.
5) Click ‘pay’ and you will be sent to an order page on ‘transaxe.com’ where you can see details on how much your order costs and where to send your bitcoin.
6) Send the stated amount of bitcoin to the address shown there on that page.
7) Once you have sent your bitcoin to the designated address, wait for your payment to be confirmed on the blockchain. This confirmation should take less than an hour but depends on the fee you sent your bitcoin with.
8) Wait for your product to be dispatched.
9) You can check for updates on your order by clicking on ‘x orders’ in the top left of littlebiggy then clicking on the long blue string of numbers. You can also message the seller directly there about your order, this is also where you can leave a review/rating once your product has arrived.

It is always recommended to try to work things out with your seller before disputing. Disputing should be a last resort but don’t be scared to hit that button if you have long tried solutionizing to no avail.
Disputes are auto-settled using reputation data from both parties.
To make a dispute click on ‘x orders’ > find the order in question > click the ‘dispute’ button.
You can read more about disputes and how they work here; https://littlebiggy.net/link/N9y8TM
If you have waited too long to dispute or have been stalled etc the dispute button will disappear but you can also request a late dispute.
To do this go to the page of the seller you purchased from and make a new topic there titled “REQUEST LATE DISPUTE” with this format;
ORDER ID:
ITEM PAGE LINK:
DATE PAID:
TODAYS DATE:

Best example of this strain right now in the world 🌍 💯🔥
Might well be tempted by this if still available on payday - and assuming there's not a sudden influx of orange strains on LB. I wished, in my piece a…
Great question and no I haven’t but where this strain is grown and the company responsible for growing it would be hard to not be up there as one of the best examples as there 🧬 are world class.
A continuation of top notch methods passed down from world class experts.
It’s a bit like saying I have a Ferrari and I know the pedigree of the car so on that basis I am confident that it’s up there as one of the best examples out there in the world right now.
Please also beware that there are 2 types of vendors on here the first being that they buy straight from a wholesaler from the dark web and are just looking at margins or there is the other vendor who will travel directly to the grow and physically test and experience the whole process before they buy. I am the latter and have and do travel to the ends of the earth to find unique strains for my customers.
My feet are testament to this as I have blisters all over them now since returning from this trip.

That’s a funny way of saying your mate landed Thai mids 😂 never seen it spelt like that before
???
If they were mids they would be listed as mids like I keep saying this ain’t my first rodeo.
And my 2300 plus reviews are testament to these facts.
I have handpicked this strain due to its pedigree and the stable it has come from like my UK tops I only pick the best.
I am going to be paid this year for doing an excellent job and will price
Y buds accordingly as I deserve to be paid fairly on my hard work and excellent buds.
No more getting underpaid that was last year!!

Having a laugh lad chill out 😂
Acting like you’ve been clawing your way through jungles with your flip flops and machete hunting for the forgotten strain that’s not been seen for centuries. If you’re getting blisters from going Thailand and bobbing your head in a couple of farms (if you’ve been) - get new shoes!

It was the new shoes that caused the blisters brother 😂

I am serious, all u vendors need to be on notice Dopey is back with the fire and have now put together a buying arrangement with a serious player from Canada with a constant supply of tier 1 420 and also have one of the best growers here in the UK working exclusively for my shop knocking out UK tops!!
This is no joke I am a serious vendor with some serious fire on board you all need to except it and move on!

Might well be tempted by this if still available on payday - and assuming there's not a sudden influx of orange strains on LB. I wished, in my piece at the start of the year, for more orange on LB and while this is pricier than I usually buy at I might have to order some just to support my flavour niche and help other vendors see the (orange) light.
Where’s all this hate for dopey coming from man ! I’ve ordered of this guy many times and have had some of the best ganj and hash I’ve ever smoked from him. Never had any problems at all. And I’m glad to see him back. Keep up the good work pal. And fuck the fools that think otherwise. Peace out ✌️
he's just highly unprofessional and unfriendly, and a lot of people have bad experiences with him as a vendor too. not to mention when he would make racist rant posts by the dozen, peer to peer advertising is crucial for dealers and that doesn't really happen when the dealer's not only a bad one but also a massive asshole at that 😆
Unprofessional in what capacity? He slings dope we buy it. If you don’t like what he’s got to say fuck off init. I don’t know him personally but every time I’ve delt with him he’s been sound. And I can honestly say he’s got some of the best ganj on this site.
You’re welcome dude. I hardly ever comment on anything but I had to step in on this mate. Trying to slander a proper decent vendor is pure madness. 👊
Blah blah blah
Echo chamber 😂
So a vendor who responds to customers questions and sends items on time is unprofessional then eh??
It is racist to post St Georges day celebrations is it???
u LIBTARD GET A LIFE!!
And lets hope the working class girls that have been gang graped get some justice after this marxist regime get voted out 🙏🏻
typical of the far left brand everyone who disagrees with there woke ideology a racist.
What a joker u really are not only do u come on my posts and start giving it you then run off to cleanup Borg and report me for hurty words just typical of the far left radicals now.
What was it LIBTARD that you find offensive then???i
That must really upset you 😂😂😂😂😂😂
You PATHETIC libtard 😂

First and foremost, I am not the great Tomato nor the grand Roo, but inspiration was had to write up on this beauty and put up a review.
Much love to the team at DGT for providing an exemplary service. FREE NDD (before cutoff obviously) it's probably included in the cost of the product 🤷 if not, then free ndd is insane to have, especially when some vendors charge double what it actually costs to post something on NDD. Thank you for thinking of our wallets, especially when the produce is of such high quality.
It's fair to say I was more than excited signing for this when the posty came a knocking.
Gutted to not have a pic of the product when fresh through the door. I further pressed it, for my own convenience, which has darkened it significantly from it's original blonde state ( I'll post a pic of the pressed bit if anyone fancies a peek) what you do see though flaked on my finger is a fruity gassy hit of heaven. Have a little zoom in and see those resin heads shine. Looks fucking delicious if I say so myself.
Now, I smoke my shit backrolled in Raw blacks with marlboro baccy and, depending on dosage you can minimise the taste of the baccy significantly. Be warned though, prepare yourself to have the greatest siesta of your life if you get too cosy, because that joint will hotbox your soul.
Beautiful inhale, real fruity enveloped with gassy goodness, more gassy on the exhale but that fruitiness lingers like your sucking on a chupa chup.
Lovely aftertaste of sweet melon, actually mouthwatering, literal lip licking lip smacking goodness.
And the high, well if the brain had a mouth to water it would be flooding.
Beautiful warmth around the cranium, you feel that smile behind your eyes develop and soon enough your fully wrapped in the warmth of a blanket of divinity. Such a beautiful experience this one.
I'll tell you this the Watermelon Zkittles is definently up there with the highly acclaimed Sunshet Sherbet. It wouldn't surprise me if Docs clinic was sold out of this beauty by the time I come back for more. I am eyeing that Lemon Tree for my next check up with the Doc. Looks equally scrumptious.
Don't miss out on this one Ladies and Gents.
Top fucking gear.

What an absolute amazing write up of this wonderful hash mate , we are so glad you loved our product pal , and don’t you worry mate . We are well stocked , as with every single smoke we list pal , honest pal we don’t add the special next day delivery into our prices , we have always gave that for free to help our pals on little biggy ❤️😎👍💯🍉, the way you described our product was like the words of a true scholar, thank you so much pal means a lot ❤️
As that is the case with the NDD I think I speak for all biggas when saying we can't thank you enough for helping us penny pinch.
That's some top tier customer care and appreciation right there.

Great write up! Gonna have to order this one next now 😂. Loved the Mimosa and I’m currently really enjoying the Mai Tai.
Nice write up mate. Thanks for sharing your love for this hash. It helps other people - like me - choose what we might like to try next.
Thanks Roo, this is from 6 months back or so still, never disappointed shopping with the Doc, I'm sure you can attest to that.
Still remember this beauty, top smoke as stated, top 5 in flavour profiles for me only overshadowed by the ZkittlesX3 from the Doc, as that's like the WZ on steroids.

Ah - a quirk of the LB algo. I've not ordered from Dr Green Thumb before. I will this year at some point.
Well, you won't be disappointed one bit when you do so. First class service, and product that speaks for itself in my opinion.
There's a reason I purchase from the Doc every month and that's consistency, any inquiries one may have are dealt in a most timely manner, product at your door in under 24 hours, always.
Never a concern to be had dealing with DGT.

Best Value for high tolerance
Happy new year to everyone I hope u all have a great year ahead. The purse strings are a little tighter than usual this time of year so I’m looking for something that will do a job whilst also satisfying the bank balance if that’s possible lol
Any recommendations would be very welcome! Thanks in advance
Any recommendations would be very welcome! Thanks in advance
Green Cat has some banging weed right now, i tried a sampler of the kush mints and it blew my head off.
Radarbreeder always has heavy hitters at good prices. I barely ever look any further because the $ doesn't match the qulaity in many other cases. Not worth paying over the odds when RB has the good shit for decent dollar..
Petitefleur can you recommend any heavy hitters from RB. I have a high tolerance an need something strong hitting. I stopped using RB a while ago down to no there being no customer service at all and he was uncontactable
Right now....I'm not sure what I would consider to be his best. The fritter has gone and that was great. I have some more mimosa on the way ... and mendo breath. Mimosa ive had many times from RB and its fab. The mendo i will update everyone on when it arrives with a review :)
Have you thought about trying a dab? Probs not that great for cost if you don't already own some glass. But a fat dab will cut through my tolerance any night of the week ;)
Pistach is relisting his trim tommrow for $43 an oz for 2 days, if you're quick enough maybe you could try grab some? I know I will be :)

I'd highly recommend RSO cookies. It's like 20 bucks for 1ml from doctor distillate. That's enough for several cookies depending upon your tolerance and dosage. I make one or two at a time using premix from supermarket and 200mg of RSO but figure out you're own dose. Bear in mind that too much RSO can be hard to cope with. Add that to a decent cheap smoke from Green Cat to top up your high and I imagine you'll be as stoned as anyone could ever need. Let us know which way you go.
Maybe pick up some RSO, it is about the most cost effective IMO. I think UK dispensary are doing a pre made oil, with 3ml in for $99
Happy new year familia!

Favourite vendor?
Who’s your favourite vendor for what items? I’m on a major hash binge atm and found some amazing sellers like Cur8, Hashman_UK, The Green Avenger for my shake and flower I usually go direct to the King Pistachio haha what vendors should we all be checking out? 👀
Hey man there truly is some great vendors on here. I couldn't choose a favourite but I find it really helpful to have a notes file in my phone, I have one with loads of different items and one for vendors. If I see something when I'm browsing I just add it to the notes file with the link, makes it easier to check if something is in stock. This is the latest vendors I have listed

It’s going to be had work, but I’ll get through them all haha thank you 👊 picked out my first two off your list for orders right after Boxing Day 👌
I compiled a list which I occasionally add to. Favourite is a hard one to call but my three top vendors would probably be RealD, DiamondExtracts and TheGoodStuff.
That’s a great idea, I’ll have to do my own. Thanks, will give them all a go( you know for science haha

When are you opening your Christmas stash?
Assuming everyone’s been stockpiling a mega stash of their favorite smokes for the festive break, but when are you planning on opening yours?
Will it be this weekend / Christmas eve / smoked it all already, or are you holding out all the way to the big day itself?
Will it be this weekend / Christmas eve / smoked it all already, or are you holding out all the way to the big day itself?
Built a ridiculous stash this year, flower, concentrates, pre rolls, edibles 90% of stuff is still sealed, usually start around the 23rd but i think i could potentially start a bit earlier this year. Merry Christmas everyone
Bro, thats proper stash, would love to hear what is your top three of flower from all that! Might revisit this posta after Xmas..! XD
Thanks bro, thats a fair idea, will probably start a little topic after Christmas and do a top 5 or something of-course terps are subjective but just overall quality etc, let people know if theres anything that should be avoided, stuff like that.
Nice one, Sendawg that’s an impressive arsenal. Good work. Reckon you could have started last month mate! Who had them CBX jars, was that SNTD?
Merry Christmas bro
Merry Christmas bro
Cheers mate, yes bud the cbx, the 710 labs, aims and one or two more are all from sn2d, rest of the stuff ive just picked up here and there over the past month or two.
RocketDogRonnie’s advent calendar has been taking a daily bashing 😵💫….25th is a 500mg monster🚀😜
Looks great, Polly. Nice bit of festive creativity from RocketDogRonnie there. 500mg tho!
I miss the Christmas gift boxes Eddy was doing last year.

Unfortunately I started dipping into it when it arrived a couple of weeks ago from THC. Sampled some more with mates earlier and one said, 'you know it's not Christmas yet, right?' Both of them had about 4 drags each of 3 joints and were too baked to have any more. I need another oz of bud, or 1.5oz, this week...
Really don't blame you. I must say, willpower is running low here too. But first I have to burn through the stuff that did not make the xmas cut.
Hey Rux, I expect you are not alone in dipping in early. I’m also temped to get one last order in, you seen those Terp Junkie strains get added? Looking 🔥 Save some for me please : )
Just ordered a little selection to keep the premium alive over Christmas: Rocky Melon (I'm intrigued by the existence of a Rocky Dennis strain, and I'm going to smoke it and watch Mask, which will be very festive, clearly), Lunar Fuel, and Sugar Factory as those buds look crazy. You can have some of the rest dude. Looks like there's quite a range left still, and there's still just over 2 hours until THC's cut-off...
My thoughts too bro, it wasn’t me but I wish it was! Gutted to see that ones gone already.
Yes! Is my vote. Nice little feature that was. I still occasionally log in from time to time just in case!
I'm already like 7 packs down. Had my Medical about a week and that's taken a hit.
Rolling my last bit of Wizard trees, Zoza. Another £70 gone in 2.5 joints

Haha, somehow not surprised Rux isn’t the only making a head start into their Christmas stash. 4 of my ‘12 jars of Christmas’ are yours mate, been saving the Red Red Wine and a few others of my faves.
Im going join you and crack open a Wizard Trees today too, think I’ve got Dark Matter in the stash, feels like today’s the day!

Nice bro, got me a cute little tenco Blue Zushi pack too, top smoke that, haven’t decided which day yet. Only a 3.5 so I might crush all that in a big fat one on Christmas Eve.
Today’s going to be Gelonade, another of my favorite strains, Raw Diesel for breakfast!

Not tried any Tyson products yet, would be keen to. I’ve have very fond memories of CoCo Milk from last Christmas tho, that was a beaut of a flower.
Mandarina from Bud Mine lined up for day time smoke today, sweet mandarin and orange sherbet vibes all day.

Just started mine last night. Started ordering extra at the beginning of December then came down with the flu and couldn't toke... last night was the first in nearly 3 weeks. If I hadn't had flu I think my situation would have been like MightyRux and I'd be needing a restock.
I got my stash in advent calendar style, 24g I have been opening one each day and have all the leftovers ready to go crazy on from the 25th.💚🎅💚
Cracking the big jars on xmas day before I start cooking, then dabs through until new year! How about your good self?
Also, any one else also really feeling like they need a break this year?

Sounds great mate, love getting baked and cooking up a treat. I’ll be doing the same here.
I’ve been going for a ‘twelve jars of Christmas’ theme this year, with a bit different strain or bit of hash each day. Think the 12 days officially starts 25 Dec, unlikely I’m going to wait that long.
Like you bro feels like it’s been a heavy lift this year. Ive done enough, keen to call it a day tomorrow and let the Christmas break (& my fingers) roll!

Aww, jealous, mate! I'm still in for a few days before New Year, but got a week booked off in Jan for balance.
Should note, have to spare a festively appreciative thought for all those working in retail, logistics, services, support and all the online dealers who will be working hard over the break.
Plus, still have to get my postie something. He has no idea how invaluable he has been this year!

Yeah good call, lots of critical people keeping the country running.
I do particularly appreciate all the hard working online dealers at this time of year. Hehe. Shout out to THC, a LB Christmas hero. My postie is a star too, got to be a £5 in a card at least.

Finished work last night and cracked my crimbo stash open. Some red seal and some of good old fashioned cheese. Woke up half ago 🤣
I started this weekend. Just now in fact. I didn't actually get that much treat stuff but stockpiled loads of different weed so I can switch through about 20 different strains. The one thing I'd aim to save hasn't turned up yet. Hoping a postie hasn't nicked it.
Final bit received today, thanks god, my small stash is now closed just in time..

Distillate / RSO recommendations
Fellow Biggas
I have been running on edibles for an entire year now and have been thinking of moving onto distillates.
Do you guys have any recommendations about distillates on LB?
I prefer RSO but am open to D9 suggestions too :-)
If I am correct is (quasi)odorless so supposedly it would be an easy thing to take on a trip (the trip being both figurative and literate).
Cheers

Black.Gold’s RSO is excellent. Really thick, very clean and decently strong. I use it for back pain and also recreationally and its great for both. Tried lots of it from different vendors here and I think this is perhaps the best
Distillate on its own i wouldn't recommend, you get high, but zero other affects, like 'happy' 'euphoric' etc
That being said i got a 1ml bit of rso last week and ate the whole thing in one day, was smoking too, was kinda shocked cause the sellers rso had incredible rep, even if their stuff is cheapest on lb. They had to re-launch shop so i guess it was just old stock or something.
I'd recommend Sensi's 50/50 distillate live resin, or even better the 100% live resin, if you don't want to vape it all you can use safety pin to extract it from cart and spread it on paper.
I'd also recommend Your Natural Medicine's rso.

Hi BBDoom
Thanks & point taken. Same with edibles I have seen variations between similar products from different vendors (i.e advertised mg) but also between different batches of the same vendor sometime.
Equally with edibles I prefer those who are full spectrum.
I'm going to check out Sensi's and YNM RSOs next, thanks for the recommendations.

RocketDogRonnies FECO is pretty special. I prefer it to most RSO and a lot better than distillate 👍
I think Diamond Extracts has some of the best value D9 I am slowly working my way through 20ml

Hey all I’m very new here and was hoping to be pointed in some sort of direction!
I’m just an honest man looking to smoke his way through the universe so let me know what your favourites are! Vegan edibles won’t get amiss either. Any and all recommendations are welcome thanks a million in advance!

Welcome buddy - at least there’s nothing disturbing about your choice of pic! 😳😝
There are a lot of great vendors on here that you can be very confident using as they rarely put a foot wrong. In addition to those mentioned by Cate & Apex I would encourage you to keep an eye out for the harvests from our growers that tend to get snapped up because they are so good. Keep your eyes peeled for: Druids Magic, Lazydaze, British Bulldog, Keep It Green, UK Cannafarm, Northern Organics and more.
For a wonderful menu of home made edibles check our Edible Eats.
And if you just want your eyes to pop with desire, then peruse Eddys two amazing stores: Hashbar & Edibles….🤩👍

Welcome mate,
Currently I’d start with The Spacemen.
Motor breath was legendary on last batch, animal face also gassy potency.
But anything you pick should be good, I’ve not had any sub par!
Green cat is good too, just don’t expect replies to messages and usually takes 3 days average. They can be ninja cat or stoned cat 😂
Gassed is a good all round shop, offering a good selection of bits with RAPID delivery.
THe gentleman dealers for Cali packs if feeling flush.
Riley Packs has always delivered yummy stinky buds.

Likewise mate, I’m sure some will say I’m a shill 😂
But my bank balance will disagree strongly 😬
Great smokes and decent prices mate and the shrooms are a treat too 🥳

I would definitely recommend The Spacemen https://littlebiggy.com/link/gKXXZ7
Great to deal with, quality and variety matched with fair pricing. Really good import strains available. Super friendly guys.
TheHashCollective23 - https://littlebiggy.com/link/P8jaqX
Great hash, some really nice weed, solid comms and reliable quality. Prob best weed I've had from here has been from THC23.
Green Cat - https://littlebiggy.com/link/du360I
Reasonably priced import, quality packaging etc and reliable. Not the best comms but no problem for the quality provided. Couple of bargain options too. I use them regularly.

Hey Kurvana!
welcome aboard! there are lots of reliable and trustworthy vendors on here but i tend to buy mainly from RealD and Dopey, they both are great vendors in my eyes and have always delivered the best product at a reasonable price, I tend to go for hash as I make my own vegan edibles! (just started creating hash hot choc, delivers the medicine sooo much faster, but damn does the hash ruin the flavour! 😂)
if its shrooms you are looking for I will cheekily add my name to the list😉
hope you get what you are looking for and happy browsing/shopping! 💖

I've been smoking Green Cats Mimosa all day and I couldn't be happier and its left its smell everywhere :D
That Blueberry Muffin they have is outstanding quality though if you like fruity bud don't miss that its another stinker and strong too will take you back to the good ol days, both banging as are all the imports I'm trying to work my way through them all had the Biscotti, Sherbet and Jungle Mints all are top value and just got the Vanilla Ice and Oreoz land today so think I might go give one of those a try now actually time to move off the mimosa but its too tasty though!
Also been enjoying 420buds Gorilla Glue as my morning starter even though its a bit of a belter :P
Good luck bigga enjoy whatever you get! :)

Gassed is my go to vendor now. Never had a problem with them very quick replies, Next day delivery, great hash and amazing edibles! They do vegan edibles too! I think they only accept over 10 orders but I'm sure I read that if u message them they will post to you!! I hope you enjoy the site as much as I do!!
Welcome bud!
Think pretty much everyone i’d say for flower has been mentioned by others on here, I’d just add radar breeder who are back online tomorrow.
https://littlebiggy.com/link/hedqe8
and also pontiff of piff whenever they’re back too
https://littlebiggy.com/link/atVrCQ
both of their menus looks great when they’re active
Also the spacemen have added a bunch of new strains recently so the new menu looks unreal 😍 i’ve got a load of bits coming from them myself.
https://littlebiggy.com/link/mUIyq3
Druids magic have also just released their latest drop and i doubt it’ll be around long until it’s all gone! All 3 strains were great, so i’d def recommend checking them out:
https://littlebiggy.com/link/V6AzGB
if it’s concentrates you’re looking for then maybe canadian imports menu is the one for you. also have carts, distillate, flower, and hash too:
https://littlebiggy.com/link/yWNW5c
Also SOTL have a decent all round menu as well:
https://littlebiggy.com/link/M1mdPp
and if it’s carts, there’s 2 standouts i think. i’d say doctor extracts live resin carts:
https://littlebiggy.com/link/lR3R7X
or sensi mart live resin carts:
https://littlebiggy.com/link/Eym27U
some other vendors also have the LR carts in intermittently but doctor extracts and sensi mart have them in stock pretty much all the time and both are great options tbh. and yeah i think with those additions that’s everyone i can think of mentioning to start your strain searching n hunting 😊
Hope this helps and enjoy the weird and wonderful world of LB! 😵💫😵💫

I highly recommend 3 vendors on this site
Flowers: Shroom Of The Loom
Hash: TheGoodStuff
Mushrooms: FungalCate
Theres plenty of other decent ones but these guys (and gal) are the best for me personally. Some of shrooms imports are on par with uk medical. TGS hash is top tier Moroccan dry. And cate grows her own extremely potent mushrooms.

Backstrap? Kingsize? Filter vs roach?
Pure, tobacco or something else?

Pure, tobacco or something else?
I know the weed geeks will love this question, also vendors whats your style!
Don't shoot me 😅 but small rizzla 1 sheet pink/blue (slow burners) raw roach, with tobacco and hash. Use to love a good flip mode/blunt with flower but strictly hash these days as it saves money and my tolerance doesn't get out of hand 🙃
Usually elements/raw black, between about .6 and a gram, roach to the left before rolling and honestly baccy just depending on the mood I'm in, about 50% of my j's are pure & 50% are mixed, but I smoke cigs anyway. How about you Redeye?
1 1/4 papers usually raw but been using smoking browns recently , roach on the right, tobacco with hash as I only vape flower these days, I do make donut joints with wax/rosin.
I usually roll using a king brown ocb, small bit of American Spirit tobacco, then packed with weed. Prob about 0.3/0.4g. I reverse roll although the cool kids call it back strapping now. I find the paper is more likely to burn completely evenly like that. I also add the roach after I roll. That's my standard spliff.
3 small silver Rizlas put together, folded on both sides so it tapers into a slight cone with the cone thinnest on the left. 1 gold Benny Hedgehog with about 1/3 of that picked out as the tobacco is hard, spiky, weird or all of these, then about 0.3-5g of well ground bud so it's rammed full. When rolled, I add the roach from my pure hemp smoking tips. This always seems the most controversial part when I roll in front of someone new. Always worked for me, and I'm not changing now. I buy silver Rizlas and the roach books by the box as it's way too much hassle otherwise.
Since I went pure/quit tobacco I rarely roll Kingsize joints. I always use a roach, something about filters I don't like although I have no doubt they are the healthier option. If the weed needs a little kick I'll throw some hash in. I mainly bong or vape hash so I can experience the effects/taste of it without the effect of the weed mixed in.
Kingsize with a roach and pure bud no baccy. so glad i stopped mixing it with my joints to be honest.
More importantly, where’s the twitch content mate? 😂
Got excited thinking you were a secret dota streamer 🤣

Budder and shatter are upwards of 80% thc.
Distillate is like 99% thc
WPFF 45u hash is the strongest hash
I don't smoke flower so I can't give any recommendations there

Our UK RS-11 or latest drop of Britscotti will certainly knock any seasoned smoker for six 🫡
We will be selling grams of crumble by next week.
Great for topping a joint off or dabbing.
Better access for users who don't want a full ounce :)

SN2D have diamond infused flower at over 50% thc, that must be up there.
Try one of our ready-to-roll Cali packs.
You won’t find better bang for buck than our current promo: 7g of Cali GAS for $40. Check out our Lemon Cherry Gumbo!
All of our packs are filled to the brim with 100% top shelf Cali flower and every strain packs a serious punch. We only stock top shelf Cali with a twist!!

I’ve not tried any of THC’s highest offerings yet but they’ll be lethal no doubt. But KIG’s hash or eddys various offerings are the real deal. Careful for what you wish for though, if you mix some bubble hash with good bud, you’ll maybe wish you hadn't
I’ve just come back with some nice strong cherry smoke ❤️

Honest reviews
I buy weed off here based purely from reviews and I’m just getting a bit fed up of buying 10/10 10/10 10/10 and it turning up and not even being a 6. Is this because the majority of LB fiend of haze and shake at the lowest price imaginable so when they have a “flavour” they’re genuinely blown away or do people rate 10/10 just because they want to help the vendors out? I’m all for vendors getting more visibility when deserved but I’m constantly being let down by shit weed cause everyone’s giving it a 10 😂
Yes I’m aware of the reviews system based on how it’s advertised but all I’m seeing is “mesmerising flower with hint of candy followed by a flush of fruity citrusy gas” yet when I spark it up it’s jet black ash, unflushed, under cured and tastes of nothing but burning coal. Bit of honesty people help each other out?!

Bit of honesty people help each other out?!
I try to be as honest as I can in my reviews but I learnt pretty quickly to not trust any of the reviews on here unless there is a decent write up.
I've seen a few 10/10 reviews that admit they have not tried the product yet....so what exactly are you reviewing?
I think the problem is some users give a 10/10 if they get the weight they ordered and it shows up.

That’s it! Which when they state it you can choose to ignore it but yeah 10/10 because it’s arrived. Would be nice to have a review system that’s based on product, stealth, accuracy of description, comms etc. would make my life a lot easier anyway!
I try to be honest with my words but I rarely give a lower rating without a good reason. A 10/10 on a $60 qtr is likely to not be the same 10/10 on a sealed pack of imported jungle boys. I base it on did I get what I paid for.
I can vouch for hash collective, I’ve used them on my personal account, top end stuff.
We have some unbranded stuff on our menu that might be of interest but no UK on there at the minute!

If anyone could recommend some vendors who genuinely sell mega product I would appreciate it please. Dont care about the price
Do check our store. We have top shelf Cali in. The Cali Kush Farms we'd consider incredible value for the price.
Personally I can recommend Green Cat (on the cheaper side but honestly he has some pretty high quality bud) & Dr Distillate (more for concs but he has some really nice flower tbh). I tried DruidsMagic and they had really nice organic flower, not sure thats what you would want though.
TheHashCollective are on my try list, same as RadarBreeder and TheGentlemanDealer, check out their menus but can't personally recommend them yet.
For hash I can recommend - Eddys Hash Bar (bit pricey) and TheGoodStuff or Nero for cheaper but high quality Moroccan.

I’ve started looking at the bit after the decimal point, so a 9.8/10 is a 8/10 and so on.
Couple of my go to’s are Keep It Green and TheGoodStuff.

Dude check out TheGoodStuff, banging hash at fair prices (and I mean fair). Recently bought 20g of this Lemon Cookie dry tek so can recommend that (got my eye on the High Octane at the moment).
With the exception of the freaks (lol) that put '10/10 not tried yet' I think most aren't being dishonest, they are calling it as they find it (and yeah some are just thrilled to actually get it!). I've had stuff thats gone straight in the bin that many have raved about, I've raved about gear that others don't like. So like all reviews really its just a bit of guidance.
I ignore any review scores that can't be bothered to add a few notes of explanation...

"Say No 2 drugs ' Started doing flower along with there carts. Ive not tried there weed yet. But with it Genuinely coming from the USA. I imagine it has to be good bud from there 😉🤔
"mesmerising flower with hint of candy followed by a flush of fruity citrusy gas"
Found it funny til I read this bit and it looks awfully similiar to what I got coming through the door 😭 karma hahaha
Found it funny til I read this bit and it looks awfully similiar to what I got coming through the door 😭 karma hahaha
Its only my experience but i have tried lots of vendors at small amounts and then those that have the important bits for me i continue to use stealth comms and the product being as advertised ( not expecting miracles on a 30 doller 8th but also expecting wow factor on a 65 doller 8th. Again for me the reviews i dont pay much attention to i more look at vendor rating of 9.6 etc and amount of sales. Were buying weed online things go wrong mistakes can be made but low and slow and when do find the vendors that meet your needs keep using them and dip your toes now and again. Personally and recently iv found sensi carts diamond extracts rocket dog hash sultan medi mart all tick boxes im over 50 buys deep now and can honestly say had 1 issue that was resolved by vendor with good communication. In saying that its shit when your hard earned coin wasted but i see topics like shake/ trim not very potent i mean whats the expectation of the shit u sweep up off the floor for 40 dollers delivered not hating on shake prob is some decent stuff about but after all said done it is the bottom barrel off a grow. Hope you find some decent stuff i used to use the gentleman for buds their menu is superb only reason i dont is prefering the carts and edibles atm
I'll second the shout for Odin's hash. I don't have the ability to describe gear the way some can , but Odin gear tastes good and hits good which is what I want. I also had a multi pack buy from @Hash Sultan last week worth a shot for about $40 , the G13 is very good
loving hash sultan atm mate dont even really smoke js anymore but their hash is seriously good - im like you cant really describe odins just is unreal always overweight his stealth makes me laugh and his comms on point.
The buy came in with a 1.5 of their homemade stuff as a bonus, very floral hard stuff but melts and fluffs easily enough under a light heat
Yeah nice always been intrigued by that decarb!! Just a bit nervous 😂😂 I hate edibles cause they’re too strong and very much smoke sativa for medical purposes so always been scared to try the decarb 😂😂 I’ve bought my flower off keep it green and Riley packs and my dabs off pink leaf farms since this post and never had issues!
dont be nervous of decarb but if makimg a joint put as much in as you did in at school when 3 of u chipping in for 8th of soapbar a little sprinkle plenty🤣
I've just had some Tokyo Snow and RS11 (not the mids listing) from Riley Packs and it is great stuff. Also got some of the Drip Diamonds from PLF and that was also decent stuff.
My advice would be to never buy anything based purely on reviews on here or anywhere in the world for that matter. There is no guarantee that you are receiving what they have reviewed through batch variance or shenanigans. Find a vendor who you trust and stick with them, or for me when I want variety I just take the risk win some lose some. If you want a specific flavour profile then ask your favourite vendor or on a topic and you will get plenty of suggestions. All the best👍

Any recommendations? Mainly using herb vapes, thank you!
I like The Spacemen’s Grape Juice. If you like gassy kush terps this is a winner.
Second this 100% but when youre checking that Grape Juice scroll down and check the Cherry Zoap too, that has some mad terps, really tasty stuff.
Your awful and haven't a clue on weed your smoking pure pgr toxic stuff #re-educate yourself
Oh dear, is that what you do when you meet someone less educated than yourself is it?
Says a lot about you.
Why not educate and enlighten them?
Maybe TSMs stuff isn't as fresh as YOUR medical stuff YOU'RE getting but that's most likely to be coming from a lab in the south here, as far as I know TSMs is coming mostly from Canada, do you know how long that delivery turnaround is?
They ordered something before and it was on the menu 9/10 weeks later so yeah things might be slightly muted compared to box fresh weed from here but its Canadian mids, what are you actually expecting?
And you probably know growers are machine trimming bud now and vac-sealing it at certain humidities to get those dense 'Cali' type buds?
So, solid dense buds arent the only sign it's PGR weed then, PGR will have the solid buds but also has the complete lack of terps and often a tint of orangy brownness due to the pistils still being around, never had anything like that from TSM & I defy anybody to spend a second with the MotorBreath, Grape Juice or that wild Cherry Zoap and tell me that it's bland, flavourless or odourless bud.
Having said all that I do like to think i'm careful about what I buy and where because I work on a tight budget so do my research, I really do trust what I'm smoking and wouldn't recommend anything I wouldn't smoke myself but please, feel free to fill in the gaps in my knowledge on this, i'd hate to think i'm misleading anyone and just the chance to learn from a highly educated polymath like yourself would be a real treat, i'm sure we'd all benefit from knowing more about PGRS mate and you can really do some good work for the community by sharing your obvious knowledge.

🤣🤣🤣 we have different versions of intelligence does that keep your heart warm at night ??? I said what I said deal with it sheeple I don't filter to fit into someone's box like I said i said what I said deal with I ain't loosing no sleep 😘😘😘😘
I'm pretty sure nobody gives a shit you silly twat, imagine telling people to deal with what you said like what you said had any meaning at all, its clear youre just a disgruntled customer or a rival vendor trolling, you've shown you weren't interested in actually helping the community here, this is just bitter shitposting which by the way isnt having the effect you hoped for, all youve done is allowed more people to see TSMs bud is fine, different levels of intelligence is right enough🤣
Maybe next time you have an issue with a vendor you could take it up with them and leave individual Biggas out of it, you know fuck all about me.
And nothing keeps my heart warm at night mate, i'm awful remember😜

Awwwww little baby I ain't writing to the queen so I'll save my punctuation for letters mush not my fault you smoke cancer weed and been called out want me to send you some dummies???
I usually buy the grape juice, what's wrong with it?
TSM are my first choice vendor but I had a few oz from them that wasn't what I'd usually expect, one batch tasted seedy with the funny smell/taste. Anyway I spoke to them and since have buying the grapejuice which is nice and I've been happy with. Maybe they had a few random bad batches of weed as they usually get good stuff. On another note, I just purchased a second oz of RS11 cali mids from Riley Packs and was substituted with uk flavours so I'm not pleased. I am usually a loyal customer to tsm and have made the occasional order with Riley Packs, I will say though every vendor does substitute at some point and if its a big order, you're stuck with it and it's painful to smoke and pay for bud you don't like. I personally rate the spacemen overall don't know anything about pgr so feel free to educate me, I think the advantage of LB is we can share our views and experiences
TSM are my first choice vendor but I had a few oz from them that wasn't what I'd usually expect, one batch tasted seedy with the funny smell/taste. Anyway I spoke to them and since have buying the grapejuice which is nice and I've been happy with. Maybe they had a few random bad batches of weed as they usually get good stuff. On another note, I just purchased a second oz of RS11 cali mids from Riley Packs and was substituted with uk flavours so I'm not pleased.

So your actively telling people to smoke toxic weed shame on you avoid spaceman like the plague
Meh you’re reaching man maybe you wanna provide some evidence cause these are bold claims get a 60x jewellers loupe and inspect it for yourself for pesticide trails and check the trichomes unless I’ve been incredibly blessed I’ve ordered 10+ strains off them and not an issue regarding taste looks or burn you muppet 🤣🤣
I'm not looking to stir the pot, just give my experience.
I'm a heavy smoker, 2oz+ a month and was using tsm for most of my weed and was getting headaches, or I should say headache, as it was pretty much constant for months.
By chance I saw a comment about pgr, so decided to change vendor for my herb and within 3 days of changing my headache stopped completely.
It may be coincidence, or not, but I don't have headaches any more :)

Headband from SOTL - extremely gassy I like it a lot
If you've not ordered from keep it green you might want to check out theirs. I've only ordered a few bits there but have always been exceptionally grown and filled with flavour.
Couldn't get my beak out the bag when my order of northern lights dropped. Lovely fresh potent terps
Surprised noone's mentioned this on a post about flavourful terpy bud yet, do yourself a favour Biggas and have a look..

Eddibles vs RSO
Wanted to know if there is a diffrence in the type of hight between shatter infused gummies and consuming RSO.
I have eddibles but not tried RSO.
Will be using it for recreational purposes.

RSO is packed with full spectrum goodness but is normally very strong so you have to work out your ideal dosage. Going over can be unpleasant and RSO is often used as a sleep/pain aid rather than big social hitter....
Yeah... definitely proceed with caution, REALLY fine line between the perfect amount and waaaaay too much.. really lovely feels though, if you get it right,REALLY amazing for squishy, snuggly times 🫠✨️... just gives me mad munchies is my only issue. I prefer it's mellow feels to the often, too intense highs of edibles, but I am a mega light weight thrower of whiteys :)
I also found it great for sleep. Seriously quality shut eye :) 🐑🐑🐑✨️
I LOOOOOOOOOVE your profile pic by the way, Spaceace 69! I screen shot it and sent to a few others I knew would love it, and they did, thank you! : ) 🌬🪐°•☆°°♡♡♡ cosmic!

From my experience RSO takes a much longer time to make effect and the effects last much longer. I find gummies more versatile to use.
The best and most simple way to describe it, is like alcohol. Some beers are 4% while others are 7%
Same with the thc content, the mg is the weight so it could be 100mg but only 10% of thc

Oldskool soapbar you use to burn
I've never ordered from them but gramazon have a double zero hash. That might be close to what you're after although you may need to add your own chun…
This had to be one of the lowest points of smoking in Uk. Does anyone remember ‘Red Eye Express’ magazine? They did a piece on soap bar, people sent samples off to be tested, contained to name a few- plastic, road tar, vinyl and industrial cleaning agents. Absolute toxic shite which someone made vast amounts of cash from!!!
Fuck that shit! My dealer used to put a 9 bar in a sock and smash it against his bedroom wall, I can still hear his mum’s voice through the wall, “WHAT THE FRIG?!!!” He then judged the weight by looking at it. You won some you lost some. A whitey from that shit was horrendous. Just say no, mate.
Closest I have had to this is when I have slightly burnt some decarb as I made it on a hot plate. You could buy some trim and give it a go. Plastic optional 😉
I've never ordered from them but gramazon have a double zero hash. That might be close to what you're after although you may need to add your own chunks of plastic. I've been down the nostalgia road myself on LB - good luck man. Hope you find your flavour.

6/10?
Bollocks, I am late to every party. I'd have enjoyed this as a smoking / writing evening too. Next time...
6/10?
Dear valued customers,
Don't usually care about reviews like this but it's one of the 1st ones on the product itself, so I just thought I'd let it be known.
This is the 2nd 6/10 in a week now, don't know if people are just being overly picky (you can't please everyone, unfortunately) or if people are trying to damage our score, but since everyone else is leaving 9s or 10s for the same stuff it definitely makes you think...
Just because your half ounce looks like a Q doesn't mean there is anything wrong with it... I think the reviewer has made the product out to be shit down to his own personal preference rather than rating it as a smoke itself.
This is very dense, well grown, flavorful flower (and in no way "twiggy")... few of the ones we have in stock may have been vac-packed tight for transit but if you're in the know, this is the way it goes.
If that isn't your thing, there are plenty of non-established (and established) outfits on here which can and will sell you muted, low quality PGR-ridden buds, we advise you go and use them instead.
If there is ever an issue with an order we encourage customers to get in touch... This is one of those cases where they didn't and just put up a slag review.
Perfect quality flower for the price people, I've put another pic of it up for you all to see above (13.88g pictured)...
On a positive note, there is a very, very, easy way of solving this problem!
I'll be giving a free 3.5g of Jungle Cake incl. T24 to the next 4 people who reply "Bollocks, I'm in!" to this post so we can see who's telling porkies 😁
No new accounts (3 month minimum age / 5 minimum buys) / obvious alts.
Active members of the community only, thank you in advance 👍

Bollocks, I’m late! 😭
On a positive note, pack landed yesterday👌 suspected the buds were PGR at first glance as the 4g is 2 “normal” sized bouldery looking buds but unpacked them and clearly not PGR. Oh and I weighed it to check, 10% overweight. Buds have a lovely squeeze to them not rock hard, they smell great and the MAC I tried is tasting great in dry herb vape 👌 still got the Headband to try out so will give that a bash later along with the new concentrates!
You’re totally right about the fake accounts though, LB is plagued with them for giveaways and providing fake engagement on (mostly new) vendor pages. Luckily they make it pretty easy to spot for the diligent bigga, I just feel sorry for all the older/vulnerable biggas that fall for it time and time again.

Hey Dhokha, thanks for your input (which is much appreciated, thank you!) 💯
Glad that finally got to you and you're enjoying all of that, buddy!
The reason these new flowers we have in stock come so dense, is they have to travel thousands of miles, in multiple layers of tightly sealed vacuum packaging to evade detection.
The reason we don't go calling it US this, Thai that, Canadian etc. is because with the methods being used to bring this flower into the country, you simply cannot prove importation the the borgs. What would they like to see? A plane ticket? 🤣👍
Not to mention the importation certification provided by the borgs can easily be falsified (not to say that I have seen anyone here at it, not that I'm all that bothered anyways), there is nothing stopping someone from re-packaging it with a USPS / FedEx label on the outside and staging an unboxing...
We also wouldn't bother listing any sub-par flower on our page, we have the full ability to return a bad batch to the firm we work with any time, so to see a review like this is certainly odd and a bit insulting!
Yeah, we've fell victim to it before, hence not doing the random number generator giveaways often (if at all) now.
I don't feel comfortable knowing there's probably some idiot out there with 20-30 accounts all for the sake of entering giveaways and claiming freebies, it's unfair for the rest of the community and downright opportunistic...
Be careful with that Headband mate. Some guy wrote an amazing review on it attesting to the fact it's some proper potent tackle, I can vouch for what he says, even I'm cautious with that one! 😆
Hope you're well mate, enjoy your weekend.

Straight bollox fam! Don’t even care about missing the boat. Game recognises game and having recently ordered 7g of the Jelly Truffle, I can say yes it was dense, but beautifully cured, lots of life in the buds, terpy as hell, pure white ash, stunk the house out to a point where the wife bitched about it (that’s how you know it’s good). Always buy with confidence with SotL! Fuck the haters, LB community will set em straight. Keep rolling out that fire mate 🔥🔥🔥
Bollocks I had a lay in and missed the bollock boat, dont worry about the odd review like that, the bud has been banging lately, especially that Candy Crush.
Just came in here to say that, I couldn't decide between headband and jungle cake myself, and after asking shrooms advice I went with headband, so old lad sent me over a gram of jungle cake to sample.
The JC buds are dense sure, but they tasted nice and had a good effect. Not 6/10 at all xD The headband is pure fire, right up my street.
Side note I may have a shadowban so apologies if so lol
Bollocks to them!

Definitely wouldn't be listening to these 6/10 reviews, used you a few times and always coming 10/10. Easy enough just to pop on a scale instead of moaning it looks less than it is🤯 Not a lot on here better for the price with the service provided but think you already know that!
I try not to mate, but when it's one of the first reviews on a product, it can and has been damaging for sales in the past, don't fancy being lumbered just because someones preference has resulted in it getting a shit review... if anything this is one of the best Cake crosses I've ever laid my eyes on.

Received yesterday thank you and it's some strong bud, one bowl and I was lights out pretty quickly which I forgot the last time that's happened 😂 Lovely smell and taste, it is pretty dense but nothing to be weary of (not 'twiggy' nor 6/10 either). Spoilt for choice on what buds to buy from you next time, thanks again and for everyone else, don't hesitate to buy off SOTL!

I completely understand the frustration here, and I’m not trying to throw shade at anyone, but I think the core issue is that there aren’t any clear guidelines on how we should objectively rate an order.
For example, what does a 10/10 actually mean? Does it indicate that the product is the best it could possibly be, or does it simply mean that the quality matched the price? Without any rules or standards, it’s hard to know how people are coming up with these ratings.
I’ve actually experienced the problem from the other side. The other week, I purchased some weed (from a different vendor) that was ridden with seeds and honestly not that great—but all the reviews were 10/10. This made it really difficult to gauge what was actually worth the money.
That’s why I think it would be useful to have a more consistent or defined rating system where people understand what they’re rating against. Otherwise, we’ll continue seeing reviews that reflect personal preferences rather than an objective assessment of the product’s quality.

I know, you said I won, I claimed it and I don't think you ever sent it chap. I literally messaged you and commented on other give aways and you blanked me? Didnt even read my comments, buddy..... No worries 🥸👍 keep your gram. Or give mine to somebody else I should say. THANKS MM???

I'm not getting funny over a gram, like I say, give it to the next winner. but you did blatantly ignore me, that's my point. REAL D sent me 14g of bud when I won his competition 💪🙂👍👑
Heck, Pistach resent out 14g for me completely free after months of not being on the site, he done me wrong but sorted me out.
Either way. Have a good day. Good luck to the winner, looks like nice bud 👍

Can anyone please help I'm going to make a banana loaf and was wondering how much has I would need to get a good stone 🙏
I'd guess it depends on your tolerance. I know the cookies I make would render some of my friends completely unconscious whereas there's people on LB who'd be fine and just ask for another biscuit.
I'm not sure if there's a formula based on how much you'd usually smoke. Either way I'd say the best advice is start small and work up. Too much edibles can be pretty bloody awful. If it were me I'd probably start early, put the whole lot in, then have one bit of it to see how it was. Give it a couple of hours and see if I'm craving more or glad I only had one bit. But you do you man.

Will you be using a standard sized loaf tin mate? We've used varied sizes making banana bread in the past.
I've tried a few little bits with hash but never loaf. All depends on how much your going to use too
Would you not melt some hash into some oil and stir into yoghurt? All you need is a small bit to blast you!

Unsent referral payments
In my transaxe account for referrals I've noted that every month some of them aren't paid out. Then they just stay there. What happens with those? Do I get paid eventually? Or do they just stay there unpaid? Why don't they get paid out? What's the score there?

Hi everyone,
I love this site and I like smoking hash. I find weed can be too strong for me.
I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for hash which is indica dominant, and not too expensive.
Thanks

I concur Bajoe. The ICC is great value for what it is but then everything I’ve had off TGS has been good value even when BTC has fallen on its arse again!
Dragonball z from the spacemen is excellent quality and price. I've had some and it's great 👍

Baccy or cig tobacco in joint?
Hi biggas, I want to know what is better in a joint with hash, rolling baccy or cigarette tobacco? Better in terms of flavour, burning well and healthyness
Get a bong smoke it pure or if you really want a joint professor herb tobacco replacement burns decent. After about 2 months of no baccy, high is nice and clean lasts longer, no urge to smoke for the want of nicotine and you will probably save money on bud/hash in the long run
American spirit rolling tobacco (its organic), get in sainsburys tesco ect.
perfect dryness and tastes very nice.
quite expensive tho, 22-23 quid for 30g.

Saw an earlier post of yours about American Spirit and got some of the yellow. It's great. Thank you for the reminder - I used to smoke American Spirit cigarettes and completely forgot they do rolling baccy too. Been using inferior tobacco for ages.
I'm smoking the yellow one currently (it's the lighter one of the two) and it's really good. American Spirit all the way, as BBDoom says - in fact, I'd been using Cutters Choice for a while and another earlier post of BBDoom's made me remember about American Spirit and just how good it is (so thanks for that mate!). No chemicals and perfect level of dryness for bud as he said.
I've only ever found the blue, it's the best, smoked it for years now.
And fuck all the chemicals they inject into the non organic tobacco, they think we're so dumb.
And fuck all the chemicals they inject into the non organic tobacco, they think we're so dumb.
I would recommend Manitou Green rolling tobacco available from Asda for £18 It’s fully organically grown with no additives and is a smooth smoke You do need a hydro stone to keep it from getting too dry American spirit is good but is not grown organically although has no additives added.
I will buy this tobacco, I have sort of giving up tobacco but can not give up joints totally for now, so will get this manitou green
Good choice 👍 it’s the only fully organic tobacco sold in uk American spirit and Pueblo are additive free but not organic As far as cigarettes are concerned apart from American spirit and Pueblo they contain many chemicals and additives
Went to Asda today for some manitou but they didn't have it, they only had American spirit and pueblo, so I left it and thought I'd try some other shop. my Asda has stopped selling it I think
Maybe they’re just out of stock Morrisons stock it as well as tobacconists Smoke King stock it online with 1.99 postage You will need a hydro stone too as the tobacco doesn’t contain preservatives so keeps it from getting to dry Anything else just DM me cheers
Cigarette tobacco all the way. I've never got on with baccy. It doesn't taste the same, doesn't burn the same, and doesn't roll the same. I've always favoured B&H Gold.
Hence my very specific choice dude, this is with much research. You can pick out the spiky/barky bits, and the weird bits, then you have about 4/5ths of a fag for a 3 skin silver Rizla joint.
Fair enough, I have had this argument with my friends for like 10 years until they converted to rolling tobaco, but definitely each to their own 👍
The pressure and the way the tobacco compacts is so different. I've had members of touring reggae bands comment on the quality of my B&H joints, but if they'd given me baccy they'd be lucky to toke through! You can easily redistribute a tighter rolled ciggy joint so there are no choke points. Almost impossible with baccy as it wants to stay in one placed position.
I know what you mean but I get round it by drying the backy a bit and using the bottom the bag which is all unclumped and doesn't want to join together again, removing those sort of problems that I have had before that ruin a joint and stop it from smoking and then resin builds up and no airflow. But if you follow my method and try it next time, and I only use a tiny bit so it doesn't really have the potential to clump up really. But each to their own if you prefer the dry ciggy backy flavour
You're asking me to unlearn nearly 30 years of rolling (after using a rolling machine) dude! I'll just carry on horrifying the youth with my 'straights' (and ability to lick and rip it open in one, as it's not hard at all) and using 3 silver Rizlas. I'm not relearning how to roll in the dark by feel and chinks of light again. It took too long to perfect.
Lol fair enough , up to you, it's very easy to roll with backy infact I find it easier than with ciggy backy as the ciggy backy doesn't want to turn into a worm so it stays really airy in the joint and sometimes part of the point burn faster making it canoe with the ciggy backy burning quicker than the nice weed. But still I've had both joints that can taste nice, it's just personal preference at the end of the day.
Ah, now we hit the crux! I use fags as they don't form a worm. A worm stage makes it too tight to toke for me. I get to nearly that with the B&H, then leave some space in the end, then roll that between my fingers so it's loose (or, at least, not tonight) before smoking. It's definitely personal preference.
If you want it to smoke quick and be an easy toker I do think cig backy is better but if you want it to last longer and be smoother then use backy in my opinion.
I can't imagine how long you'd want it to last as a 3 small silver Rizla joint for me will last a good 20-30 minutes. How would I get things done if I switched and it lasted longer?!
I can totally see both sides here having used both fag and rolling tobacco for long periods in the past. Definitely pros and cons for both but I find myself siding with Rux. For me rolling tobacco was almost purely an economic choice, if you can afford a B&H or Marlboro gold then I’d suggest that.
But also, we should really be discussing the healthier alternatives (boring, I know - sorry). I use joints as a treat now. I vape in the mighty or bong hash through the week. Helps wi tolerance too I think.

Just recently bought this American spirit blue from Oman duty free during a transit, it was the only batch they sell that natural, 8x 30gram pouches for £25. Yes it's decent stuff, I usually smoke manitou green but this American spirit is good to
Use rolling tobacco for joints and then have my bongs pure 🌟
Everyone got their own preference but pure is healthiest in my opinion

Neither, both are disgusting and just ruin the flavour of whatever youre smoking. Pure all the way
I only smoke spliffs, don’t like it without tobacco, no bite on the back of my throat. I need that bite to have a satisfying smoke.
My go to is Old Holborn but Drum Blue is nice too.
My go to is Old Holborn but Drum Blue is nice too.
As far as health goes, neither, but amber leaf is my go-to. I don't mix weed with tobacco anymore but I still smoke ciggies and amber leaf just seems to be the most consistent and high quality tobacco out there. It's expensive as hell but if you ask in European shops for the good amber leaf you can normally get it for under 20 smackaroos. For joints cig baccy burns a bit too quick/uneven and makes it taste worse so it's always been a bit of a last resort for me. I'll use different baccy if needbe but a lot of the cheaper baccy in shops either tastes like wood or play doh to me 🤣
Not smoked cigs in ages as they give me a cough, but i do smoke rollies.
Cutters Choice
Smooth and not dry, makes a joint last ages
I need to get off the tobacco all-together, might try "Professor herb", Vaping gives me a migraine, no matter how much water I drink.

● Currency = Jesus OG x Cheese x Sour Diesel
● Bakewell tart = Lemon cherry gelato
Only smoked the Ocaso and Cherry Trifle previously (favouring the latter), so this sounds quite intriguing. Get some different Barz LA Red label stuff please!
The red was the best I'd had (arguably better than the purple?) ever, until I had that last hash I reviewed. Nearly smoked all of that, unfortunately. Still have a couple of pots of red though.
Gotta admit the currency might tempt me. I've had the ocaso previously which is phenomenally nice. Which do you reckon is actually the strongest version?
I had the currency off THC and I think it was a bit nicer than the ocaso.

Rux Reviews - WPFF Ice Hash - Guapicana
This stuff is mind-blowing. Seriously. I only encountered this after somehow winning THC's World Cup competition and choosing 1.5g of this as my prize. I absolutely caned it, like a hash hog that hasn't paid for incredibly high quality hash. Absolutely wiped me out. Got 4 very well packed joints out of the 1.5g, then after a few days I decided I wanted to get that messed up all over again, so paid for some.
This stuff in a large chunk looks like the very best quality fudge or tablet (photo below), and it crumbles so easily under the fingers. Practically disintegrates into very fine dust. Smells like some sort of citrus (lemon, possibly?), but I also get a scent of some heavy spice (clove?) on my fingers when I've crumbled it. One of the main smells that I get out of this is B.O. though. Like your mate hasn't washed and you need to tell him for the good of everyone involved. It's not awful or unpleasant like that situation could be though, but it's definitely there, and noteworthy.
I've just smoked this in joints as I'm an awful nicotine addict, but my God it's good. The first time I tried it I managed 3 joints in a session, somehow. Last night after dinner and a bath I smoked a joint, then fell asleep for an hour in front of the TV. Later I smoked another before bed and had to keep the last 1/4 in the ashtray for today as it completely wiped me out and I was about to pass out.
Incredibly strong head stone from this. Ludicrously strong, possibly? If a joint of this doesn't completely mangle 99% of even high tolerance stoners then I'd be amazed. I've spent about an hour battling the stone and trying not to sleep feeling almost like I've done very good psychedelics. Don't feel much of a body stone to it though, apart from last night when I briefly became one with the sofa. I also had a weird thing with one joint of the initial stuff I bought made me stupendously stoned, then I had a bath, and during my extended bathing I realised it had changed from being stupendously stoned to very high. Very clear, lovely high. Since then it's mostly wiped me out. You may have more luck smoking this in slightly lesser quantities, or smoking it in one of the many devices that you and I both own.
tl;dr Probably the strongest product I have ever smoked, ever. Superb stuff.

Hey bud,
Thanks for the review. Always pleasing to hear about such amazing experiences on these products.
Lmao at the BO notes. I'd say it reminds me of tropical and maybe rotten fruits. An interesting, yet inviting aroma.
Got more great hashes lined up. Including a 90u isolator which I plan on doing an extended cold cure on.

Only since you've said, but I do get what I want to say is passion fruit when I get my nose right into this? Maybe mango, but that's possibly my nose saying it's on the smoothie spectrum? Definitely BO too, and it's delicious, like some lover that's just been running and you want to lick them. That's not weird, is it? Fight me.
Nice review man. It's a bit spendy for me but it's made me want to try it. I like the idea that it'll test my tolerance levels and make me feel like a teenager again. Can you really put a price on that? I also feel better about previously comparing a terp smell to wd40 now I've read your BO comparison.

Which hash should I get next?
Biggas, I have just finished two small samples (dry kush and frozensift hiwap from T.H.C)
Both lovely hashes in every way, but I feel I need a little more bang for my bitcoin than the sample sizes give. Pimping out my joints has become a bit of an obsession 🙃 Looking to order a larger amount and had selected a small shortlist of those i have had my eye on to choose from. Please tell me any quality options I might have missed in my browsing and also any smoke experience you have had with these.

Hello my friend, hope you are well
We have just got some very soft "MiG" hash in stock, really nice flavours 👌

To be more than fair you could never go wrong with Eddy's amazing hash lineup.
So I feel abit amateurish suggesting my bubble hash. But there you go

If you're looking for a strong indica hash then you can't go wrong with Sunset Sherbet. I think it is the best value for money hash on LB. Packs a bigger punch than some more expensive hashes on LB.
Ordered alongside the Strawberry Banana from DGT. Lovely bit of hash, but not quite as nice as his Strawberry Banana. Happy with both. Gives lemon haze from DiUK a run for it's money.
Would be if they had an alterntative to 'signed for' delivery.
No idea why vendors think this is a good thing.
I just had a delivery 'tracked 24' which seems to do much the same without me having to sign for it.

glad this was mentioned and couldn't agree more.
Don't even browse LB anymore to find the potent stuff, assuming you're talking about DGT's, he's a legend and people need to stop sleeping on it.
wrote a couple reviews already, makes you feel so chilled no unbalanced feelings throughout. Tried a double filtered from elsewhere (still sunset) and didn't hit. Think it's just DGT's magic

If I may, I had a 3.5 of Lemon Haze hash from Drugs Inc UK very nice indeed. There is an excellent review from a head called tomatoalec which describes it in exquisite detail.
Aw man, haven't heard the term 'head' for ages. Thought of Platoon straightaway when Charlie Sheen is introduced to all the stoners - "these are the heads" (or something like that!)
"And if there's a heaven, and, God, I hope there is, I know he's sitting up there drunk as a fucking monkey and smoking shit." :)
"And if there's a heaven, and, God, I hope there is, I know he's sitting up there drunk as a fucking monkey and smoking shit." :)
One of the all time favourites dude. Had long stoned conversations with an old oppo of mine about Barnes and Elias and right and wrong...the comment I think is " lemme introduce you round some of the heads.."
Dr Green Thumb is the man for hash. I can highly recommend the sunset sherbet oe gelato. the doc always has a great range and amazing service. :D
May I recommend HashLover420. Best hash on LB in my humble opinion. Also got a 15% discount till Wednesday

I'm interested in trying the various grades of the barz brand hash. Looks like it's made to perfection - some look more like an extract than a hash on the photos. The jungle boys hash also looks incredible. Hope you find a good'en.
Afternoon mate, we have a few different types of hash on the menu.
From commercial Moroccan blondes to the higher end Smugglers farm and Blue Magic Patron frozen sifts ✌️ Have a squiz, reviews speak for themselves!

You have raised the bar high with the hiwap. The static sift is one notch above that from thc. I don’t think the others you have listed will come anywhere near these 2 if I’m honest or will any others except from perhaps Nero right at this moment anyway
I would love to order from Nero, Hash heads or Hashishin but I am rather averse to risking customs right now in my life.
I think the hash is generally overpriced here, if I'm honest but I get it. Static sift has low yield so it goes for high price.

Hi guys
I’ve recently got into edibles and decided to try some delta 9 distillate but have no idea what to do with it.
What do you like to do with it?
Cheers

You can literally put it in anything, make some space gravy. I usually find chocolate and moulds are easiest for dosing though
I make cookies. I usually buy a box of cookie mix but just make one at a time from the packet. I add distillate to the mixture. Bake it. Then it bakes me.
I've been putting 2.4g with an Asda cookie packet mix, makes 6 strong cookies. Melt the butter and distillate together in a Bain Marie and then mix with the packet mix. If you've got a low tolerance start with half a cookie.
There’s some really easy beginner gummy recipes on YouTube. Will let you portion it too.
Fudge is also a great option.

I wrote a review about the LA barz ocaso hash. It's the lowest of 3 grades made by LA barz but was undoubtedly the most mind-blowing hash I've ever smoked. Review is linked. Well worth trying but it is 27 bucks a gram so not exactly a budget option.

How do you consume hash?
What's your prefered method of consumption?
Mine is to either mix with flower in a joint or to use this device called a Vash- which is a portable device made to consume like the old pin under a glass method.

I always used to smoke it in a joint with tobacco, but since I quit tobacco I pretty much exclusively bong it now. I don't tend to like mixing it with pure flower in a joint as it can be hard to judge the quality/effect when it's mixed with flower.
I do have a Mighty but have avoided vaping hash in it as I have heard the Mighty doesn't get to the temps really required to get the best out of it. If anyone does vape hash in a Mighty what temps do you work with? Straight to the highest temp or build up to it?

I use a dosing capsule with a little cotton bacon and find the Mighty does a good job with hash as a “sipper”. If it’s a soft melty hash then 200c is fine, a harder hash and I crank it to the max.
I sip on that and it’s works great but if I want a BIG hit then I load up the tiny Vapman and apply the butane. Takes practice but hits real hard.
I’ve just got some dosing capsules for the Tinymight2. This cranks up much higher than the Mighty and even has a ‘Beast’ mode (😳) so could be the best of both worlds?

I just had some dosing capsules turn up as I have some wax I wanted to try in the Mighty so I will give it a go with some hash as well. I've seen a lot of positive opinions on the Tinymight2 here so might consider an upgrade. Thanks for the advice.
Tinymight2, water pipe adapter, a rimmed basket lined with cotton bacon and a bong is amazing! It takes a couple of attempts to get the knack, but then gives consistently *huge* clouds (they've set off my smoke alarm before) from a relatively small amount. Flavours are stunning - and thanks to Polly's cotton bacon tips - almost zero mess
I've got some concentrate pads that came with the Mighty, was going to use them. Just looked up cotton bacon and grabbed a pack to try it out to see how it compares. Cheers.
Oh yeah- I’d forgotten about those! (I use different kit for extracts). They work fine, but the bacon is definitely better for hash- you just use a tiny tiny bit on the bottom of the capsule and on top of the hash so you still get a smoooooth draw👍
The advice about cotton bacon is spot on. It is much better than the capsules/pads. I ran some king hassan through the mighty using the capsules and pads and it made a terrible mess. It could be that I overloaded with hash but I had to throw the capsule and pad away after.
The cotton bacon wrapped around the hash is perfect, zero mess and no negative effects on the draw. I’m a convert, thanks for the advice.

How have you been getting on with hash and TM2 dosing capsules Polly? They never quite did the trick for me, but the rimmed basket (ahem) that comes with the 3D cooling stem has been much more successful. That,plus the water pipe adapter and a bong are so good I now use this method all the time (when at home) for flower and hash. I have found the TM2 at a high temp can almost cross over into combustion - the bacon starts smouldering! - so I'm wary of beast mode
Interesting comments mate🤔👍
I cannot get on with the TM2 dosing capsules, I have two different types and I don’t get much action from either of them. BUT- I am totally with you on the rimmed (oo-er) basket from the 3D stem!
My default set up is to remove the mesh from the cooling unit, push the unit half way up the long titanium mouthpiece and then insert the basket in the bottom (oo-er)… I find this works a treat. I had some spare baskets with my Arizer EQ so it’s all good 🤩
I cranked it up to level 10 to get anything out of hash filled dosing capsules and it was still rubbish. Of course like the donkey I am I forgot to turn it back down again when I took a massive hit on some herb the next day. On the plus side it was a very large cloud, however I’m not sure my lungs will ever forgive me. I cough just thinking about it🫣😫
I still don’t have any water kit for the TM2.
It’s weird because the Mighty works fine with hash in a dosing capsule🤷♂️
All good fun buddy😉

Yep, totally agree about TM2 dosing capsules: tried both, with very little success.
Baskets are definitely the way forward, and the water pipe adapter was a great investment - I recommend it. Using that with an ash catcher/bubbler and an ice bong has removed nearly all coughing for me, despite it all producing massive clouds (equivalent to a desktop vape, or combusting through a bong). Taste seems improved too.
I also frequently forget to turn the temp down (9.5 works well for me with hash and the above set up) and its pretty grim with flower isn't it?!?
Feels dirty, and not in a good way

I use a crafty, same thing really. For hash I whack it up to max!! 220? Beautiful, Lasts ages. Lots of coughing if you overdo it. Use a dosing cap - less mess.
Can you vape hash on a dab rig? I've got a titanium banger which I think gets hotter than my glass ones. Might try that out.
Needs to be pretty clean hash or it will make your banger gross af pretty damn quickly.
I use a metal screen/gauze with some bubble hash pressed into a patty on top, then whack that on the nail, but I only use my dag rig for bubble hash and concentrates.

Neat from a pipe, used to use the little 3 inch brass shooters. Onto glass bubblesrs in my old age.
Probably not very healthy but I find it delivers a pronounced flavour and stone compared to joints.

In my younger days put it in a yogurt, same with the oil. Had some fun days at the swimming 🤣👍🏻
I consume everything pretty much, in little one skinners.
Got one of your kush doobies on the go right now, so good.😁👍

Depending on the hash itself i usually roll it into sausages if possible, if its a harder hash then the burn and crumble technique, usually mix in a bit of bud too👍
Depends what type of hash.
If I can make a hash snake, it's 100% going in a joint. If its crumbly it's either a joint, in a bowl or in my xmax vape.
Anything really sticky or oily I tend to vape

How does that work? Do you just build a little cone of hash on the bottom bit and light it? Nice cool smoke? I bong/pipe.
https://vashofhash.com/
There's a video on there
You stick the hash on the lid inside and light it (there's like a pin) and then it jsut smokes and fills the container

I mix with weed (what people now call flower but I've no idea when or why it changed) into a joint with tobacco. On its own in a joint I find it'll burn away too fast. Mixed with weed is best for me. I don't do pipes, bongs etc any more but I guess I'd probably pipe some in a simple glass pipe if I were.
I do actually enjoy it. Very easy to use and clean. Allows me to enjoy a small glob of hash quickly and easily.
Unfortunately, the producers have run into a few issues shipping abroad and aren't currently doing so.

Help finding vendor
Saw a vendor that does half gs and 1g samples which I think is great for trying out new strains, but can't remember the name... anyone know who I mean?
You can always ask a vendor if they’ll put a custom together for you, say 3 or 4 1g samples from their store. Many will but for some it’s not practical…
Hehe, maybe I’ve been lucky but I’ve never had a “no”…I just explain I’m a strain junkie and ask very politely whilst accepting that they are probably mumbling “pain in the arse!” under their breath. Many love to showcase their range, others have prepacks or packing teams that make it impractical so a no shouldn’t offend. Just ask though…👍
HumbleB are doing a sample offer on Cherry Runtz and seems to be going down well according to reviews.
Not a really fan of Runtz so haven't tried it myself though

best bud here for sleep?
new to bud & have rather bad insomnia and find weed is the best help, what strains on here have you found knock you out or give you a large body high?
Pink Kush always does the trick for me. I’ve had great examples of this from Green Cat and The Spacemen. Also MKK2020’s OG Kush, but that’s currently out of stock.
Hey mate while everyone’s different, I’d say a safe bet is a strong Kush variety and usually a few available.
Motor breath would’ve been my other tip but believe that’s sold old.
I’m loving jungle grapes for ptsd, depression and sleep. Good all rounder, lacks the insta KO though but an epic strain.

Thank you for the little info at the end too! Jungle grapes sounds very interesting as I also suffer with ptsd, will make a little order today. 👍
my best bud for sleep is my mate Clarence, he only talks about Doom and cats and has a really soft Canadian accent, sends me right off to sleep once he starts yapping. boring cunt
and where can i order him from can i ask? a good canadian accent and a dull as fuck topic could be the tincture
Hello
Have you thought about RSO, its often better for sleep and medicinal use, you only need a little, half of a rice grain sized blob maybe, a bit more depending on your tolerance.
Eddys hashbar has some Stardawg RSO which is an indica dominant strain so should tick all the boxes for you, ill add a clickable link as Eddys page can be slow in loading sometimes... 👊🏻
As far as bud goes i cant get enough of the Kushes at the moment, so many of them work for me personally...
TSM have some Washing Machine, its an offshoot from Bubba Kush and is a nice strong indica.
Hope this helps

absolutely forgot about RSO, great shout. thanks so much for the strains too, will definitely look into some kush :)
No worries at all mate, I've been looking at this stuff from Myconauts, waiting for some reviews to come in but the vendor is getting great reviews on the other products and the price is over half the going rate for RSO so if its turns out to be good stuff its superb value 👊🏻
Hey m3anstreets,
Totally with you on trying to find the bedtime strains, also have insomnia and here I am at 3:40am writing this out after not being able to sleep all night… here’s to me being a zombie in the morn 😂 🧟♂️
Completely agree with what the others have said about finding a nice kush strain, recently finished my last of the pink kush, which was a delightful bed time strain, and also the motor breath by the spacemen has been a great heavy hitting ko strain too. However, I think both the PK and MB are sold out now unfortunately😢
In the past I’ve really enjoyed skywalker og as a bedtime strain and i’ve seen riley_packs have some available atm that you might wanna check out:

Radar breeder also has some in too, along with some blackberry kush that might be right up your street for bedtime:

blackberry kush - https://littlebiggy.com/link/o0J4AJ
The gentleman’s dealers also have another fav bed time strain of mine available in grandaddy purple, although i’ve never had it from them before, i’ve just had it in the past and it was great for sleep:

They’ve also got some gsc available atm which I’ve had in the past and I found it had some surprising ko strength:
gsc - https://littlebiggy.com/link/6QYQL0
And here’s a couple strains that I’ve been looking at for bedtime myself that I thought looked good since the motor breath and pink kush have sold out, however, I’ve never had any experience with any of these strains so I could be wayyyy off with my presumptions:
baklava gelato - https://littlebiggy.com/link/hwUoDi
road dawg - https://littlebiggy.com/link/Iu5vnA
king louis - https://littlebiggy.com/link/zkm2mq
Hope this helps and you find the strain to send you off to dreamland buddy 😴 💤
edit: Also spotted a critical kush just now, that looks like it could have some ko potential, but the reviews didn’t seem amazing on it https://littlebiggy.com/link/34PvuW
Totally with you on trying to find the bedtime strains, also have insomnia and here I am at 3:40am writing this out after not being able to sleep all night… here’s to me being a zombie in the morn 😂 🧟♂️
Completely agree with what the others have said about finding a nice kush strain, recently finished my last of the pink kush, which was a delightful bed time strain, and also the motor breath by the spacemen has been a great heavy hitting ko strain too. However, I think both the PK and MB are sold out now unfortunately😢
In the past I’ve really enjoyed skywalker og as a bedtime strain and i’ve seen riley_packs have some available atm that you might wanna check out:

Oh wow. What a list, thank you so much for the in depth answer and all the trimmings friend, i’ll go to town today and make a little order
If you're new to weed I'd think it doesn't matter which strain you go for. Everything will knock you out 👍🏼
Haha, i wish i was new to weed for that KO. I’ve been using oil and carts for a few years
You ever do tolerance break? I've done a couple, longest was nearly 3 months. I swear everytime I start smoking again it hits me harder..... for a while..
I’ve tried tolerance breaks a lot, but my c-ptsd makes it too difficult to actually manage through without it most of the time, hoping to try again soon tho!
I also get insomnia. The thing that always gives me a good night's sleep is making cookies from d9 distillate. Can get 1ml pretty cheap on LB. If you're new to edibles I'd recommend you slowly work up the dosages. Like don't start with 1ml. Start with 100mg or something small. The syringes it comes in are marked. Taking more than you can handle can be a wee bit unpleasant. I expect RSO to be a good solution too but I've not tried it. I've read that's even more dose dependant than d9 where a bit too much is not fun. The one possible flaw in both of these is if you need to be up early the next day. As others have said a good kush would likely chill you out a bit. I find a strong hash more sedative than weed though. Good luck on your journey man. Hope you find a solution. Or still least fun searching for it.
Hash is where its at for a sleepy eyes shutting lovelyness
Any 3x filtered although seemingly fairly expensive will last well and send younoff to the land of nod with a content feeling.
Good luck

Number 1. But not that size. I find the ones that come in the 2 in 1 (Rizla & roach) pack are a little bigger and better imo.
Like most folk, I grew up on 6 but I’m definitely 1 now haha, especially the large perforated ones.
That green cardboard in Rizlas is shit now though isn’t it? They changed the cardboard recipe.

Any leaflet/flyer that gets posted through my letterbox gets the flex test for roach material 🤏🏻
The Edinburgh Fringe is good for that, you come home with hundreds on flyers. Dudes trying to get you to go to their naked one man ballet and accordion show and shit. “No thanks pal, but I’ll take your roach paper”.
6. only enough for 3 joints - perfect weight and flex though. why couldn't they use the same material for the extra roaches in the newer packs (which are ok but not great)? raw are too thick to get a really smooth cylinder with no creasing at all, and too soft not to absorb too much oil.
i mean, you can - art suppliers sell card in different weights, you can get something pretty similar. need to cut it up yourself though. if you have a guillotine?
yes, but once you've got the weight and flex you can order online in future. the only problem now is being able to see exactly how many reefers you've actually been smoking. the shame... ;)
1 - Raw tips👌
I wouldn’t want to roll expensive flower & use anything else💩
I prefer the pre rolled Raw tips with the logo printed 😎 wrapped in a Elements paper🫶😮💨

I'd say number 1 - I've not used rizla for years but that moisture trap card is the best material for roach. I guess, in a way, Rizla had complete market control over the rolling paper sector here for years & would be an interesting study as they didn't make the products their own customers wanted / needed. And now you can get raw / ocb etc in every corner shop. I wonder how much of that would have happened had rizla just thought, "hey our customers love the green card. Let's give them more of it. Like 50 joints worth."
Have you ever tried C-Tips? They're metal and have carbon or something in them, total gimmick but they look good lol

Awesome dude. This may sound really crazy, but I've added things to my cart in the past and when it added another $7 postage charge after I added the 3rd 1g I've generally deleted the whole order. It's psychological, and it won't just be me.

I've only ordered 2 times from LB. So my opinion isn't as valid as others. But, the mimosa evo from KiG. Its easily the nicest smelling/tasting bud I've had the pleasure of smoking in years
Im smoking a fat Evo joint as i write this but i don't think any of these dudes have brought my buds BeerBelly.
I dont get any wall action

100 Billion % it's Keep It Greens Mimosa EVO. It's like smoking a can of Fanta, the orange terps are phenomenal
Orangina or the mimosa from KIG are up there for me. I haven't been so excited for years over a bag I've bought. I'm a fan of orange strains which tend not to be so mainstream now so finding KIG was a treat for me. I'm a newbie at little biggy so still finding my way around.
There's been a few great ones but The Spacemen's Durban Poison is the one that springs to mind recently.
Had that years ago..
Can’t remember its profile though.
Should get some in for that reason really!!
Where’s that list gone-🤣🤣

Mmm right now what I have on me some fine biscotti with purple hues with a sweet taste to go with. TGD. And some nice wizz Khalifa kush wich taste better than its mummy OG. Sweeter taste than the original from poundland. Gave it a shot and some nice smelling unique. Some dense nugs little bit of purple I see coming off the nuggz treat man!! Biscotti from TGD Real niceee
The Biscotti and Wizz Khalifa kush are now on my hit list. Thanks for the recommendation Mamadadah 👍🏻
Any bud grown under Samsung lm301’s or better should taste amazing.
It’s so cheap to grow now that it hurts way too much to pay the insane prices people ask for on here.
Carts and hash only.

Had some Lemon Cherry Nerdz from Pistach a good while back and haven't found anything similar since. That said, the vendors you mention both have some excellent stock. Green cats Blueberry Muffins probably the best tasting recently although I am currently blazing through Green Teams Rainbow Cake which is very pleasant in both taste and effect.
I will keep an eye out for that Lemon Cherry Nerdz and the Rainbow cake cheers. I see that Pistach has a good selection.
The Blueberry muffin is just delicious it definitely scores high with me 👌🏻

For me personally Mimosa EVO from keep it green, Rainbow Beltz 2.2 from THC and the future island from Druids magic
Recently getting back into bud after exclusively using carts for the best part of a year....but the Mimosa from Gentlemen Dealers definitely worth a mention
Mimosa is still the nicest thing I've smoked from Radar Breeder, if anyone knows something of a similar level but slightly cheaper that would be awesome
Try ZOAP !!!
There’s some on here with a gelato cross going on for £10 a g on half.
I’m getting some if it’s still available in few days.

That's above my price point but I'm sure whoever gets a sample is going to be a happy test pilot. Looks incredible stuff. Like the stuff dreams are made from.
😮 Hash porn of the highest quality as always Eddy. 🤔Why do I find myself trying to justify ordering a g when I know that it is way outside my price range 😭
Hopefully EH will drop it to ten bucks. I'll be in like Flynn. The proverbial Flynn apparently has a penchants for piatella. I like Flynn already.
Go on then, twist my arm. Want a laugh at my expense? Went to load my wallet and there was an extra £1.1k in there! I didn't add it. Wow! Free money!! Ordered 2g of free Piatella! Woo hoo! Went to pay. It didn't exist. The imaginary money I didn't add to my wallet doesn't exist?! Dude! Had to add more and then pay. Let this be a lesson to everyone.
Is that like the jedi mind trick on yourself, "you will buy Piatella, you have free money" 😉 .Enjoy mate it looks unreal 👌 and it's only money.
If it was it was done by my wallet, and it worked. Still showing the excess so have to deduct that rough amount from what's left in there.
Tropicana Banana is probably the one, strawberry banana is the biggest strain in rosin / water hash at the moment,aside from Willardz grape gas. Tropicana is a good yielder and has some fire unique terps
Very much considering grabbing a gram for a review but 140 on untracked post with my anxiety is probably not going to happen, no shots at Eddy, you are killing it man.

If it helps your anxiety, Eddy has sent me $700+ of stuff via stamp in the past. My arse did twitch a bit, but it landed with no issues.
He's going to send me $280 of Piatella via stamp now as I'm an idiot (see other post). I did not order Watermelon Rush.

Where did you go - my lovely - where did you go...
Tgt. I couldn't find you on the wall. I don't quite get what's going on there but I know LB can be a quirky place to exist so I hope it all gets fixed.
Tgt was one of the first vendors I used and thus largely responsible for building my trust in this website. I remember as a newbie you scroll through trying to make sense of it all, often seeing dreamy looking bits of weed to buy, only to read the dreaded 'x-buys minimum' in the manifesto and know you need to prove yourself as a valid stoner before even trying anything from there. It's hard to know who to trust with your first few orders and frustrating that the choices are less due to your lowly LB status.
I fully get why some vendors do this but the 'newbies not welcome' sign feels a poor first impression when you're a newbie with only good intentions and looking to get stoned.
So the larger vendors like TGT that will deal with newbies are essential for building the site up and are responsible for people's first impression of what LB is and what it offers. Had a vendor like TGT been poor I may have already looked elsewhere or started ringing around the locals to see who didn't have stardawg that week.
I'm still relatively new to the site but as I approached it with all the restraint of a kid in a sweetshop I've had a fair few orders. Of those, ten have been from TGT. Over the course of those ten orders I was given 11.5g as a loyalty bonus at various stages - a task that must be difficult for them to administrate.
Across all those orders the quality has been consistently good and the price great for what you get. I've had numerous 1g cheap samples when they launch new bits which is a great service when you have limited funds and aren't sure which is best for you.
Within those ten orders TGT made a single mistake on an order which was immediately rectified on the next business day. It was no stress to sort out with them and I think they could see what had happened. That hugely boosted my confidence in LB and in TGT who quickly became my most trusted vendor.
It's fair to say that I've now got trust in a number of vendors on this site as my orders have built up but when you look at the root of my journey through LB a lot of the positive touchpoints are from The Green Team (tgt).
I hope the algorithm or whatever is the god of the LB wonderwall starts showing the tgt listings again. I miss seeing the tgt bits as I doom scroll through the wall thinking about where my coins are going to go next. It'll be reassuring to see you there again. Thanks TGT.

BigRoo Review: Odins - Zkittles gp decarb (decarboxylated) hash
started topic

BigRoo Review: Odins - Zkittles gp decarb (decarboxylated) hash
This is a review of a bit I paid for.
About me:
Long time smoker, mostly spiffs but also vape & make my own edibles. I favour orange or fruity strains and generally prefer a couch locker to a heady one. I'm also a big fan of extracts. I've no idea if my reviews are useful but I felt it'd give something back.
The vendor:
Odins is a well known LB hash maker & consumer that was recommended to me on a recent hash post I wrote.
Decarb hash:
This is a decarboxylated hash. Odins, who it's worth noting is a far more experienced hash maker than me, seemingly has a thing for decarb. I get the theory - that some of the usual hash product you smoke doesn't fully decarb so is wasted as your body doesn't absorb the thca unless converted to thc. However, it's a process I'd not considered myself so I was hugely curious as to what you lose and what you gain. It'd be interesting to pepsi challenge a new hash by decarbing half and running the other half as a regular hash process. Then testing back to back. Pseudo science perhaps but it might be an interesting process and the results would surely be an interesting read. Perhaps Odins has done this and decided decarb won?
The Product
So, what's it like to smoke? It's got a taste of classic hash in there but not like a musky backstreet soapbar. It's more like a sweet flowery oily black but without the plastercine back taste. Very smooth to smoke. The taste is subdued as with most hash (compared to the bud that I'm used to smoking). No harsh dry hash throat which is always a winner. It's soft to handle, again similar to a squidgy black but slightly dryer. It does roll into little sausages so is easy to use.
The stone is a slow burner for me. It starts as you smoke but doesn't stop when you stub. It continues to creep up around you like a warm blanket placed over your shoulders on a cold night. It's a sneaker so after twenty mins you suddenly realise you're pretty sedated but are slightly unsure when it happened. It's much nicer rolled with some bud to slow the burn rate down and add more flavour. Personally I think that's true of most hashes rolled in spliffs as opposed to a comment on Odins but I always try them on their own first. Is that a me thing?
I got the last 2 grams of this. So you can't actually buy some whatever I think of it. Sorry - it was an intro offer at 9 bucks a gram. Odins does have a bunch of other products to check out and more in the pipeline I expect. There's a link at top of this post so you can check the other decarb hash out.
Note: I only got it as someone didn't pay or cancel their order so there was a 2g leftover after it was sold out. That's impolite in my opinion. Vendors have a difficult inventory to keep. Administrate yourselves well to help out the LB community folks. However, in this case it did help out this small corner of the community so thanks to the non-payer.
Verdict:
For 9 bucks it's exceptional value and likely better than most of a similar price. Although as you can't now buy it that's probably not helpful. It was an intro offer so I guess it would be priced higher usually. There's a load of other options available on Odins page (linked).
But is decarb hash better? I don't know. That's probably not the conclusive answer you wanted. It's not the answer I wanted either. Its flavour is subdued I think but it's definitely unusually strong. As in; its strength is unusual rather than more powerful than anything else.
As the buzz is settling it does feel a little like the heady effect of the early onset of an edible just prior to it fully kicking in. I think that's probably my best description of the slightly unusual stone. It doesn't continue on to batter you like a strong edible and leave you questioning your life choices but it is a strong stone of that nature. I'm not ruined but I certainly know I've had a smoke. That's probably why I'm stumbling to find the words to describe it. My tolerance is pretty high so if it works for me, it'll likely tickle your fancy too.
Ultimately, it's worth trying some decarb hash to see what you think about it. If only as I'd personally love to hear other people's experiences and thoughts about the process.
I might try some in cookies. My sixth sense is telling me this is a good idea. But don't quote me if you try it and discover it wasn't. We're all adults here.
I hope this review was useful, if not I hope it was entertaining at least. Thanks for reading - I'll catch you next time.

I'm pretty interested in the decarb pepsi challenge. I swear I'm going to get to that in the future. I've sort of thought of a Piatella-ish method to try at home using stuff I have lying around. I'm awaiting the right starting product but if that goes well I'll write it up. It'll take months though so don't hold your breath. And in all likeliness it'll either fail or possibly create something else. Possibly a fungus. Possibly hash. Who knows. My fag packet science calculations says it could work though. Thanks Odin. I'll be back in the future.
Excellent review mate, I was remembering that taste when you were describing it, very descriptive. Alas I missed out, I remember seeing the thread and thinking I'd go back to order, then I skinned up and you can guess the rest. Anyway great review mate, I look forward to you doing other products!
I just happened to be in the right place at the right time to scoop up the last bit. I had actually missed it too. I'm definitely going to explore decarb more in the future. I think I might try making some myself. Thanks for your reply. I like writing the reviews. It's interesting to try and explain a feeling and pretty challenging not to call hash hashy tasting. My first review was a haze that was hazy.

Damnit.. still got 2g in the cart. Am always late to every party. Looks like it went off with a bang. Looking forward to seeing your future creations.
This went live just after I ordered last bit. And has sold out just prior to me ordering next round. It's been exactly timed for me to not have coins where I need them. Like a fate and destiny thing.
I'll be ordering tomorrow on here so if you have any left over give me the heads up. It's a tight month here but I saw mighty rux comments and had put some in my cart to check out. Thanks man.
Yeah, you'll be amazed how often that sort of thing happens. Loaded my wallet yesterday, and obviously it has jumped in value since I bought today. But, if I hadn't bought today I wouldn't have weed tomorrow. Stoners on roundabouts.
There's light at the end of the tunnel in the form of a potential non payer. Slow feet may still get to visit the snack bar. Is it slow or no. That's the question now.
Completely out of context, but I'd like to see how your brain works:

The one eyed man would also be blind if from the valley of the blind. Unless he was a conqueror from elsewhere. That'd be fitting for a king.
Does my brain work? Not so well at this time in the morning.
Does my brain work? Not so well at this time in the morning.
A man I respect greatly opened my eyes completely: the valley of the blind could be specially adapted to blind people, so a one eyed man could be at a disadvantage. I've been very close friends with that man since.
My grandad was disabled and built his own house and business to fit around him. All the doors were huge & switches lower down for him to reach from his wheelchair. So for abled bodied folks everything was slightly more awkward. In his house we moved around more awkwardly than him. It was his domain. And having watched his numerous struggles when I was a kid I completely get that he wanted a place that fitted his needs above everyone else's. We were the one eyed man of your example.
People are going to be SO baked. Little afternoon sleep? I think, maybe I'll plan tomorrow around a long bath and a sleep, post a joint of this.
Seconded. I've only had the lowest grade they do and that was the highest grade hash I've ever had. Absolutely blew my head off.
This was my review of it. Something I'd like to do more of on here.
Can’t wait to see what’s up n coming 🙏🙏😉😉😉😉😉 probably going to another mind meeting and then a meltdown 🤣😂😂😂 or even mangled 🤣🤣
Alright then, so a bit of a review.
Initially I said:
"10/10
First impressions, there's very little taste or smell to this, it goes down incredibly smooth, and it doesn't fuck about."
And I haven't changed my mind much to be honest but I've nowhere near done the strength of this stuff justice.
I've been banging around for bloody years now, and I've smoked a bit of everything right up to absolutely fresh charas in the Manali valley, and this stuff rates.
Pound for pound it would be tough to beat it on pure strength for a non concentrated hash.
I guess that proves your point.
Just saying 💚👍

New flower to the menu.
I'd agree for pretty much the same reasons. I don't get paranoid but I don't have an enjoyable time either taste-wise nor effects.

New flower to the menu.
Super cheap but the price doesn't mean anything it is a fire flower. Zkittlez lovers rejoice.
Hello my LV’ers…
I saw the post and didn’t hesitate.
The cherry Mac was ok for the dough.
I have no doubt this will be the same
Nice one. 🫡

I just ordered some of the kush zkittlez. I had the Biscotti Runtz being debated on this topic though and I thought it was really nice at the price point. I've never had a dawg I liked - and locally there's been a lot of dawg variations. More than make sense to me. Some people are haze averse, I'm anti dawg. I'd be kinda impressed if you'd slipped a bit past my dawg radar and I found myself enjoying it. I was going to order more until I saw the new strains live tonight so am trying one of.those.
You are correct. I do. Nice dank citrus flavours. It's the best value low cost bit on lb I've had. Really truly marvellous at the price point.
Avoid unless you dont mind taking the risk of receiving stardawg and I ordered two strains lol and by the looks of his reviews im not the only one, But he's telling me he sent "top shelf uk"
Using other people's pics is a big red flag unfortunately I didnt spot that before I ordered so lesson learnt

I'm sure it's not stardawq, after stardawq I get paranoid and can't sleep at all after this one I sleep like a baby and Its smell like it have some cookies genetic no like chemical dawg
I'd agree for pretty much the same reasons. I don't get paranoid but I don't have an enjoyable time either taste-wise nor effects.
I have no idea what he sent you but Ive been smoking hash/weed for over 25 years and at one point if I wanted to smoke it was stardawg or nothing, what he sent me is stardawg. Im not looking for a refund or reship I just think vendors should be sending what we pay for, I would have took the loss as a mistake and moved on until I see his reviews and reddit with people saying they have the same problem
Hi! We're both enormous fans of Gorilla Zkittles and BB's example in particular (I miss that so much as it wiped me out more than almost anything else ever has).
So, how many times have you ordered this product, and is it always consistent in effects and product you received? What effects did you find that made you focus on this in particular...?

Lol..we don't even stock stardawg. Its impossible. everyone has enjoyed it except for you? come on bro
Those are both your reviews loooool bro leave us alone. We’re trying to provide honest flowers. If you do have an issue with the bud then send a picture of it here. Or are you gonna say you binned it or sold it?
i brought 4oz of the biscotti, definatly not stardawg.. ive smoked for 20 years and i can get stardog all the time locally. 100% vouch for LV, ive had some 80 purchass average buy of $220 on LB my first buy off LV was nervous due to comments but was spot on couldnt have been more happy.
That does not look like stardog to me lol,in my honest opinion it's same as the pics on lvs page, nice light colour and I had the biscotti x runtz and the cherry mac and it was what it said on the tin,look at the bud with a torch and you'll see the difference with the cherry and biscuits x runtz u can see its diffrent 100% and smells diffrent so not stardog imo.
Just received OZK.
As suspected - it’s NOT Stardawg.
It has a high gas smell,maybe that’s being confused with SD.
I dunno. But I’m happy- Chears!!

Many more ordering from me to come!

Shop Open Intro Offer $9 per gram
Hi you beautiful Biggaz today i open up my new shop, First is just the intro offer
I will introduce new hash through out the coming week new hash will be available on a regular basis. 💖 Love & Light, ODIN

The gif says it all after you’ve smoked a split of this stuff 🫠🫠🫠and all the best with the new store 🤗 lucky biggers
Great to see you up and running mate, the Mimosa was a pleasure to smoke and I've been looking forward to trying more of your wares!
Good Luck 💜💚
Good Luck 💜💚
🤣hope I didn't confuse matters talking about eating it, my favourite way ìs to top off a pure joint or mix with bud for a pipe I only ever eat it if I know I won't get to smoke 👍
Best of luck mate, it is looking good as a big fan of decarb I can recommend it highly to anyone who wants something to put the lights out. But also a bigga recommendation for anyone who doesn't like to smoke or vape as you can chop it up and microdose it or just drop a chunk and 40 mins to an hour later you will know about it. Definitely worth a try.
Hope you are busy mate I am sure you will be once it gets going 👍
Hope you are busy mate I am sure you will be once it gets going 👍
I know what you mean, it is ideal for things like cinema trips because it builds and then lingers longer than I expected anyway. I don't bother to buy edibles because I find most of them have a taste that makes me swallow them as fast as I can anyway. This stuff is way cheaper and once you know what you can handle you can keep it weighed in chunks and just swallow it like a pill 💚
Good luck ODIN. I’ve been looking forward to this day, I’ve e got a G in my basket, il pay first thing in the morning mate. Best of luck again.
Gutted,literally a couple quid short.
Something tells me this will be gone soon.!!
I’m gonna be back to see your wares. Hash is where it’s at.

Well, I'm glad I bought a g of this! Wow! Everyone's assessment of this is spot on. So strong, superb head stone from it drifting into the body after a while post joint. Lovely in a joint too. Nothing like a harsh hash joint that tastes mainly of tobacco, this is smooth and spicy and delicious. Superb work. 100% worth your time and mine.
You cropped up on my topic the other day on hash making funnily enough. I've just put an order through which cleaned out my coins otherwise I'd probably have had a sample of this. Looks great man. As per my post I'm thinking of playing at hash making again and this is just encouraging me!

Looking forward to seeing the orange. The dank citrus flavours seem under used these days in the quest for sweetshop named bags. Not saying I don't like the sweet fruity ones - I definitely do - but as my grandma used to say, "variety is the spice of life." She probably didn't have this in mind though.

Just made my first order of a vendor!
So I made a order and they didn’t send my item within a 100 hours so it automatically cancelled and had to speak to a refund bot is this a normal occurrence or was I just unlucky annoyed how it’s my first order
Just received my order absolutely brilliant I would 100% recommend to any first time buyer! The Space-Men are great on comms super quick delivery came in less that 24 hours and the bud is amazing quality! 🔥 for anyone wondering what I got I got Permanent marker 🖊️
I wrote a short piece as a newbie (I still kinda am I guess) about the vendors I'd experienced as bitcoin fees at the time grounded everything. The spacemen are great and I've had a couple of really nice bits from them at not much money. The link is below if it's useful to you.
There's a couple more vendors I should probably add on. Maybe I will rewrite it in a month or something.

Always use 'share' on a page to generate your links with your token embedded, then copy and paste that into the web link window after clicking the button to make that appear under your comment box. You'd be surprised how much you can generate in referrals just by being helpful, as people prefer clicking a lot more that cutting and pasting. Link above this connects to the same page you linked to.
Generate link like you have there, but, underneath the box to reply there are 2 options 'web link' and 'local image'; you need to click the web link button and then paste into the web link box that then appears above before you reply. That makes it clickable.
Perfect dude! You've signed up to Transaxe, right? If not, after shenanigans last year I'd suggest you didn't use the exact same username as you do on here when you do...
Top tip - thanks man for working it through with me. I'll link stuff where appropriate. I wasn't on LB last year. I was either ringing round to see who didn't have stardawg or lemon, or I was paying a lot for a bit that in all likeliness originated from lb but with a claimed transatlantic origin.
Can't beat the Spacemen from my experience on here. You just know the postie is going to ring the doorbell the next morning! Good luck Z
This is not normal but some vendors don't sell to accounts with under a certain amount of buys.
I recommend these vendors:
Canadian Imports
https://littlebiggy.net/link/Do6564
THESPACEMEN
https://littlebiggy.net/link/qbbZnk
Both have great reputation and serve first time buyers.
Good luck :)

Thankyou :) made a purchase hopefully should receive it today 😎 I went with the Space-men as very quick comms etc
Try asking a few of the vendors if they would be willing to take an order from you before placing it they might insist on a tracked delivery to a new customer,once you find one that will let you in the door show them some loyalty and bigga love and build up those buys.
I will recommend The Green Team as they were the guys i bought off first on LB and are always great on the comms and are LB veterans.
Best of luck 👍

Where have they mentioned you? Did I miss this?
You've been increasingly erratic as a vendor over the last couple of months or so, but I'm basing this on postings by yourself, not orders. Your potential customers see this bizarre behaviour.
Caveat Emptor, always.

Caveat Emptor, always.
It’s my first time on this site and my topic is exactly madness because I’m on about 2 different vendors if you look I said about the error then I had a reply saying try out the space men so I messaged etc and went with them and it turnt up and the quality is good so re replied under my first comment I’ve not meant to cause confusion or anything I’m new here just needed help at first then was happy with my outcome so I thought I’d share for anyone thats new I’ve only just seen your page and ill definitely be coming to you aswell I’m not a vendor just trying to promote myself or one vendor I’m just a buyer ill leave a review for each vendor or is that bad ? I’m just a newbie to be fair thought I was being helpful I’ll definitely visit your shop next :))
Never thought about it at the time but it was the may weekend bank holiday so good chance the vendor was away and refund borg is automatic if there is no response to the order after 100 hours i think.
Chill RB we know crap has been happening though no idea why you responded to me as i am just an old stoner trying to help out not much i can do about it.

This is far from normal. I've had very few issues on here, even as a newbie.
How was that Permanent Marker? I have 1/2 of that and I haven't opened it yet.

I think the vendor that didn’t send the item is actually on a break atm so maybe that’s why I did get refunded tho and tbh that permanent marker was fire tastes great and got a good high to it not as top as dojas but for the price can’t really complain

Hello, Littlebiggy! We are thrilled to be here. We heard a lot about this community and we are hoping to be part of it. Please let us know if we miss anything or if there’s any suggestions!
Why can i hear alarm bells ringing? can anyone else hear that?
in all seriousness biggas if this is legit then every weed vendor on here will have to dramatically restructure their entire menu and business model
so i'll remain heavily sceptical whilst also hoping it is real, cost of living these days, weed should have been these prices years ago.

I'm new on LB and I thought it seemed dodgy an still dubious but I also thought f it and ordered 7g the teatime Zkittles x something and the bisscotti 7g ordered I git a reply days it takes 3 days for tracking details an that they look forward to doing business but I will also let yous no how I get on and if arrives I'll post pics.🤞🤞 if the stuff comes and as good as it looks I'll order plenty lol, ON there reviews 6.4% disputes which is high so time will tell,I'm giving the benefit of the doubt ....
I ordered 14th March
My tracking number was 1 digit out , i am still waiting for a reply?
I’m not holding my breath for delivery!

Ordered 13th March, sent 16th March, ‘tracking’ 18th March. Got told the tracking would be on Thai post the day after they sent the tracking which it still isn’t on there. At this point I’ve come to terms with the fact that it won’t turn up because I’m a bit of a pessimist but if it does turn up it’ll be a pleasant surprise and I’ll inform everyone
Well Said hesh 👍👍!!!
It definitely would Change a lot..and good luck HarvMac
Its seems like your the guinea pig here 🤔. Hope it lands for you mate.. 👍

fantastic thai-lands ... I jus 💚 the menu + the outstanding prices .. I hope u do very well on LB ... it might take a little while for the sales to build up but once us biggas get onboard and the reviews come in the sales momentum will take off ... g/luck + njoy LB 😎😎
Actuallly looks like the flowers from Berners show I watch when he went into thialand and testing a few flowers. Good show guys check it out
I like your prices! You really will put the cat amongst the pidgeons with this stock list. 😅😉
I sincerely hope you do well, and that your products are top notch. They look good, now all we need are some reviews.
I would purchase some myself but I’m a little short of funds this month already having stocked up.
Welcome and best of luck to you! ❤️👍🏼💪🏽

Just possibly maybe selling them these prices to give peace to customers for the longish wait. Could be! I will be sticking with my usuals anyway but I wouldn't order from outside UK. Bad experience many years ago ended up getting charged for extra insurance just to recieve my goods wich could not afford that exta would have come to 500 for one oz so I never went through with it and never went to order abroad again I also lost the 250 for the oz aswel straight scammed! . But good luck to some who try I actualy think he's legit this tai guy but hit an miss with getting them packages through every time. There would be some very agitated customers haha
Exactly y thoughts. Im thinking about risking it and getting half ounce. But i dont wanna be the crash test dummie.
Brave Stevedog haha No hate for the tai guy but will wait for them first reviews tactics tactics
I guess it's difficult to set up as a newbie and this sort of thing would be a good way to kick off as people are talking about it and someone will likely have a punt. I'm with you though man and I'd rather see a bunch of reviews before rolling the dice here. All the bud looks interesting. I guess the story will unfold in the coming weeks.
Will be interesting to see how it runs will keep an eye outm don loco does Thai Import and it's some of the best smoke we've had. OZK was awesome same with the grapple cake was lovely too. Almost the best buds I've seen.
The 112g is an amazing offer.
The 112g is an amazing offer.
Hi nice to see you on here. I really want to make an order but im quite worried about getting weed from thailand delivered to my house in the u.k. Thats the only thing stopping me
Looks amazing that boofscotti yum yum. TEAZE you are but I'm gonna wait for them first reviews and keep eye on. Look very gassy
Wow 😲😲 just seen this Topic.. are these prices for real basically £20 for 7grams . .and like £50 for a Ounce??? Surely cant be right. The buds look really good have to Say. All of them 😉. Without throwing a Spanner in the works guys. They do look like they've been grown possibly using PGR 's( No Offence Thai- Lands) maybe not 🤔🤔. Its the cheapest ive ever seen for a Z of bud. .
Yea, although I had a look at delivery and the prices are almost equal to the price of the product you are ordering, still cheaper than the average Oz on here all in, but I think I'll pass for the meantime
So it is, I'm a fucking idiot 😂
Well that seems very cheap but I guess if you are taking Thai currency into consideration, I have no idea though so I will just avoid this one myself for the meantime.

BigRoo Review: Barz Ocaso Hash
Ocaso Hash / Sensi Mart
This is a review of a bit I paid for.
About me:
Long time smoker, mostly spiffs but also vape & make my own edibles. I favour orange or fruity strains and generally prefer a couch locker to a heady one. I'm also a big fan of extracts. I've no idea if my reviews are useful but I felt it'd give something back.
The vendor:
Bought a couple of times here. Quick delivery, stealth on point.
The product:
There's been a lot of hype around the new Barz La hash. Some of it from me. Does it live up to it? It's a squidgy super soft hash that's sticky but easily workable into snakes. The smell is devine with high gassy notes rather than the musty smell of a traditional hash. It's more reminiscent of an extract.
To smoke it does have flavour but for the mass of thick smoke it produces the taste is subtle and understated with a rocketfuel note overpowering everything. It's not a hashy taste like a Moroccan nor Afghan although the undertones are hiding there, but it has a higher gassy note - again - more like an extract. The first one I rolled it on its own. Next one with bud which was a much happier delivery system. It's super smooth to smoke. No dry hash throat. This is a very clean product.
Strength wise it's like really bloody strong man. I had a face sweat almost immediately as I started smoking it which follows with a nicer, smiley and more balanced hit that slowly climbs over you afterwards. Basically like space cadet candy.
I'm enjoying it. If you've read this far you can probably tell that. I'm on number three now and the novelty hasn't worn off yet. I'm still getting a face sweat from each banger. I'm also becoming pretty stoned I must admit. It lingers.
Verdict:
It's an utter delight of a hash. Really not a hash like any I've had or made before. It feels like smoking an extract and if you blind tested someone I think that's what they'd guess they were smoking. It lives up to the hype. And this is only the green level hash. There's two levels above this, red and purple. The Barz LA folks have made a masterpiece here. It's hash excellence. Probably worth noting I've not had loads of high grade hashes before and that I already plan to correct that this month. Thanks for reading, I'm off for some chocolate - mmmmm... chocolate - that's my review, hope it was useful, and if not I hope you enjoyed it anyway. See you next time.

Thank you. Judging by the response to the barz, I'd guess there's going to be a lot more. I invested in shatter & some other bits for this weekend. I only took a cautious sized bit of Barz. Now I know what it is I'll be back for more. I expected it to be more hashy and mostly fuss & branding on top.
Loving the rooviews mate keep up the good work nothing funnier than someone trying to explain something which by its nature is making everything harder to explain. 🤣💚
That is the inherent problem with toking and reviewing, you're like, it's sweet - like - Erm - Erm - Erm - a sweet thing... Damnit I can do better.
Thanks.man for.your feedback. I'll keep doing the rooviews for any freebies / wins I get & anything I think will be of community interest.

Superb review! You definitely seem like a community asset. Weirdly this was the most hashy hash I had from any of the Barz LA stuff. The higher (ha) levels are not vaguely recognisable as such. I may have committed quite strongly to this with a purchase just this afternoon.
Thanks man. I'd hoped they'd be useful or entertaining or just open the conversation. I know what you're saying about the hashy taste. I did note it as an undertone. But I find shatter or sugar extract sometimes has hashy or green undertones. I'm definitely going to try the other grades but possibly next month when I buy a dab thingy. I was recommended loads of hashes so it'll be interesting now how they weigh up to this.
I also mean this actually sort of looks like hash too, if very good sticky hash. The Red looks like a concentrate, and the Purple is unrecognisable as hash at all, to people who haven't kept up to date on how this has all progressed.
Get an Ace Cup. It's banging. Best and easiest thing I've used ever for carts, and great for any concentrates too. Put cart or trate in, push cup down, gulp down the whole cup, hold in, cough for a while. Let's see how long Polly takes to notice this revelation.

Ah - yeah, on that score it is completely recognisable as a hash. Like you can roll it in your fingers and not then stick to everything you touch. What are the other grades like to handle? Some waxy extracts are forgiving and other extracts are like super glue. Where are they on the stick yourself to shit scale?
You can not handle the other grades 😂 A hot knife is a potential future purchase for you....
I put the Red into a joint. Don't do that. There's a review somewhere that's possibly a bit more rambling than yours (found it, linked above). You'll stick to everything forever with the Banana OG Red. I fell asleep for hours. It was great. It wasn't the cost effective way to consume.

Reading that made me want to try skinning up with the red more, not less. I guess it's no worse than when I do it with shatter. Very enjoyable if a spendy way to relax.
If this is what you do anyway with concentrates then do it! I'm such a heathen that I did that with live resin and other delicious trates. Gets you high! Costs you a lot. I have all sorts of devices and today I smoked 6 joints of Venom OG. It'll help if you can move away from combustion. I'm not the person to help you. Sorry.
I'm going to get some additional tools for smoking like the recommended ace cup I think - in time. I'd not had reliable access to all this goodness prior to LB so wasn't much point thinking about it.
That's because your not using a usb powered halogen pepper pot to extract your weed 🤷🏽 honestly all the parts are on Amazon
You taunt me with your superior ways, sir! I'm going to combust some Venom OG mixed with a Benny Hedgehog, and I may well make my way to Bedfordshire afterwards...
You should never need to cough when using the AceCup!😣…turn the temperature down or use the bubbler glass. You did get a bubbler glass yeah?
You’ll notice the difference. I was going to say it’s a chugger rather than a sipper but it sounds like you are chugging all the way- Rux Style! 😜
Top review BigRoo. Those face sweats are for real! 😅can also confirm that the cherry trifles is excellent as well. Gonna have to buy a Coil king AIO and give those red and purples a blast 💥 💚
There’s some items that leap out and punch you right in the gob.
This is it I reckon.
I gotta get some when funds appear.
When I see slabs like that,I wonder how much product it took?
What a thing of true beauty ay?

200plants made 3 x dinner plates .5cm thick layer of super light green triches of grade A iceolator 20 years ago.
Sadly didn’t weight it-but it was still to this day the purest thing I’ve smoked anywhere in 35 years.
I feel these LA BARZ would be better and more tastey though.
Yeah sure it’s dear,but it’s taken a lot to make it.
I’m just a joint smoker so I’d smear it like a paste I think.
Or maybe get a cheap rig and see what all the fuss is about-🤣🤣👀

I'd read a lot of hype around this product since it launched and like you had to wait for funds. But still I expected it just to be a hash, albeit a good one. It's really next level stuff. More of a natural extract than a hash in the traditional sense. Highly recommend although if you're anything like me you'll go through it quick.
I'm not sure if the wastage would be that high. My guess would be the whole process was engineered to introduce as little of what they don't want in as possible But I've no idea of what this hash maker actually does other than it has clearly been exceedingly well thought out.

I was recommended the ace cup which looked pretty nice to me so will get that eventually. I'm going to check out a few recommended hashes from a previous post I wrote on my profile page. This Barz stuff really is something special though.
Imagine sampling it and sitting back to ponder that there’s 2 more grades above what you’ve just had.
Fack yeah🫠
Fack yeah🫠
The Ace cup looks and sounds like a great device. I just need something that’s portable and cheap. I currently have an OG mighty for flower and hash but really wanted to dive into the world of concentrates as my tolerance is up there. Still love a good joint though haha 💚

BigRoo Review TS Shatter
BigRoo Review: Shroom of the Loom / Tommy Shelby shatter
Competition:
I was sent this as a sampler following a competition on LB which I didn't win but somehow I still got sent a prize. I was amazed to receive it. Thanks SOTL.
About me:
Long time smoker, mostly spiffs but also vape & make my own edibles. I favour orange or fruity strains and generally prefer a couch locker to a heady one. I'm also a big fan of extracts. I've no idea if my reviews are useful but I felt it'd give something back.
The vendor:
Hard to fault them considering I got a prize for not winning a competition. The delivery was super stealthed so that I actually wondered what had turned up based on feel and in fact even after opening I was briefly confused.
The product:
I've bought shatter a few times and this is the first one that's reached me in translucent glass-like state. It's tinted brown but has the kids lolly consistency. For me it's more awkward to work with than my favoured sugar type extracts as it's glass one minute and glue the next. Like a small error and you have stickier hands than Spider-Man. That's a me thing not a fault of the product which seems perfectly produced and that I'm just clumsy.
I don't dab so my thoughts may be irrelevant to a lot of people but here they are anyway.
Taste wise it's gassy & herbal & botanical, almost a clinical essence of alcohol & meds, with musky/hashy backnotes. It produces thick clouds of potent smoke & tastes very clean & smooth that's making me feel pretty good as I write this.
It's strong stuff. I'm pretty tolerant but it's a powerful full hit that starts immediately with an alert kick and a face sweat with more fully spaced floaty feeling delivered afterwards. Who wouldn't like that?
Verdict:
Tasty glass like shatter that's super strong. Price is very good for this level product I'd say. I'd definitely buy some and will be checking the vendor out after payday.

For anyone doubting my review I've just bought 3.5g of this (it's on offer.) I put my money where my mouth was. Very good value. Great vendor to deal with. Thanks SOTL.
Thanks for coming back and giving us a try mate, much appreciated. Hope the shatter serves you well!

New batch
Hello, biggas!
This new batch of our Tommy Shelby Badder has a drier, putty-like consistency, like the original batch we had in stock.
Perfect for moulding snakes in a joint, also a lot easier to work with / dab than the last batch.
Whipped from a perfectly stable slab, seem to yield better results this way.
We now whip our badder in 1oz batches for quality control purposes, they should all be the same colour but consistency may slightly vary between batches, we will try our absolute best to keep it consistent though.
Thanks for reading, happy shopping biggas!

I was a victim of my own review and had my arm twisted to order the shatter from you this week. My preference on extracts is the sugar but I'll give this a bash next. Looks ideal for my purposes.
This is a great badder and probably unbeatable for the price. Despite all the choices on here I’ve ordered it twice and that new batch is calling my name!😵💫
The shatter I had previously was bang on so getting it again isn't exactly a hardship but I'd fully intended to order one of these types. My mate was super keen on the shatter.
I'm hoping to have a small test of the Barz green ocaso by the weekend as a treat. There's too many tasty things on here - bloody hard choosing sometimes.

YOUR FUNDS ARE NOT SAFE ON LB !! Be cautious and don't waste your money on here. Borgs are crooked - system is fucked up
------------------------------
I got 18 buys, on average more than 500 bucks on each of my purchase
It turned out that within this 18 purchases, within more than a year, I did have issue twice so I had to open disputes.
So far so good, right ? After all that's what the dispute system is made for
So does it make sens that the borgs are now refusing me to open anymore dispute ?
Stating I quote that I am a " bad buyer " and that my " stats are bad " ?
Corrupted staff, shitty system... it's real fucked on here so good bye everyone.
I'm not going to spend a single more penny on here

BigRoo Review: Tropical Haze

BigRoo Review: Tropical Haze
BigRoo Review: That Guy For Bud / Tropical Haze
Full disclosure:
I was sent this as a free sample following a chat on LB. However please don't doubt my credibility reviewing it. I'd likely not have reviewed it at all if it was terrible. I certainly wouldn't ever recommend something to other biggas that I didn't believe in. But equally I wouldn't go in hard against a vendor who sent me something to try.
About me:
Long time smoker, mostly spiffs but also vape & make my own edibles. I favour orange or fruity strains and generally prefer a couch locker to a heady one. I'm also a big fan of extracts. This is my first review here.
The vendor:
The vendor is reactive to messages, seems a decent sort, the parcel was bang on point for stealth and the only negative I'd say was that it was squidged from the vacuum packing. I've never bought from them so can't comment on that. I would buy from them though based on service.
The product:
The buds look hand trimmed and were mixed in sizes so I'm guessing a more old school grow than some of the modern mass machined commercial looking stuff you get. The smell is super strong and immediately stunk out my kitchen the second I cut open the vacuum pack. I've opened lots of bags and this one was notably pungent which is generally a good sign.
Now, this is a haze. Probably everyone reading this has already sampled some sort of haze and formed an opinion of it. I know I was curious as to how it'd be like. Personally I've not had an issue with hazes in the past but I know some people can have unsettling or flighty feelings from hazes as it tends to be more head buzzy.
So what is this one like? Please read on. I'm sampling and writing at the same time.
It's, erm, very hazy. Yes, I was hoping for a better description than that too. Gimme a min... If you think Lemon Haze you'd be wrong - thankfully - however it's a flavour at that end of the spectrum. Not at the silver end. (Does the haze flavour spectrum run from silver to lemon?) It's more complex than the old lemon and is more citrusy and grapefruity - more like a tropical fruit drink where you can't quite place the dominant fruit. I guess this is well named based on flavour. As I've smoked more there is a slight musky back note to the flavour but I'm still pretty sure we're at the lemon end of the spectrum. We're more lemonade on a summer day than the musky lynx Africa notes of a silver (which I actually like and have explained terribly).
The effects are more cerebral and energising than couch locking as you'd expect from a haze. Whether that floats your boat or not is personal taste. It does creep up quite a bit but not like my favoured orange bud strains that kick your arse fifteen mins after you smoke it. It definitely does have an after hit though it's more heady than a body blow.
Overall:
So overall it's a pretty pleasing, decently strong haze and whether you love it or not will likely come down to your feelings about the strain itself. If haze's leave you trembling in a paranoid corner hoping no one will talk to you then this isn't going to be for you. If, like me, they don't, you'll likely enjoy it just as I am right now.
It's probably also worth noting it's priced very cheaply (at time of writing) and at the price point I've personally bought much worse bits on lb with much fancier names and genetics.
Verdict:
If you like haze, give it a bash. If you don't like haze, steer clear. It's a pretty strong haze and unlikely to mend any issues you might have with the strain. Probably could have just written that as the whole review. I like to waffle though while blasting a smoke. Have fun LB folk. See you next time. Thanks for reading.

Totally agree mate as an orange loving haze dodger by nature the freebie had me pleasantly surprised and the vendor seems like a top guy👍
Silver would be my favourite hazy variant when it's done to be a full sweet musk but I rarely seek out hazes. I don't think anyone who bought this expecting a tropical tasting haze would be too far disappointed by what they got. It's very much what it says it is.
Appreciate a honest review! Let’s say this, nothing is perfect so it’s always good to strive for perfection. Feedback is always needed to improve. We are growers and always look for ways to improve so thank you!

I know init, it’s a shame really I originally thought it was a community based site but it’s just not the case given the fact vendors and customers are all shouting from the roof tops we need an alternative but the approach seems to be grim and bare bitcoins volatility
yeah been watching this a everyone has been asking for a new payment processor. this seems the farthest its got they are looking for devs
For.
Although I've seen this all before. An old vendor Super Hans tried extremely hard to get Litecoin/Monero etc introduced a couple of years ago. Had the backing of all the vendors and biggas alike and it never happened.
It does seem like jackwright might be making some headway, but many of us that have been on here a while won't be holding our breath.
Good luck though buddy. It's probably the single most important improvement to the site, and is long overdue, so I really do hope this time it works out.

Yeah I’ve got that the overall response is For but it’s literally not even worth it given as someone already pointed out initiative Borg ain’t been active in a while.
Yeah I think our only hope is someone picking up the project, I’ve had a quick look at what it entails and although am literally studying that issue at the minute I think it’s probably best someone with experience take on something like that.
Hopefully though someone sees the opportunity and takes it!

Totally get that, I was gutted when I had to ask my old dealer when I seen the price of the bitcoin fees but I can’t justify paying upwards of €15 just for a fee.
It’s not as if it’s happened before the only difference now is people are going to find alternative sites which sucks as LB has been awesome.

I for one love this site but it’s becoming harder and harder to utilise the brilliant products on here and community due to bitcoins instability and proven track history of being unreliable on this site.
It is also getting to the stage where it’s becoming too expensive for vendors and profits are being eaten up by transactions fees alone.
Instead of little biggy being that website everyone remembers as being “imagine how good that could have been” and continue to expand the community by allowing better accessibility for payments.

Need to find a different way to pay. I don't mind a couple $$ but atm u can't justify it. They are crippling people.

no reply or anything from any borgs or admin on any single one of the dozens of topics on this subject this past couple weeks, yet posts exposing dogshit fraudulent dangerous vendors like gamechanger will get immediately removed from the wall
used to be so passionate about the idea of community and gradual improvements to the site via an alleged democratic process of initiatives but that's long gone for me now
we are all pissing into the wind but it's really fucking windy out and the piss is just going directly back into our faces, you can't stop pissing though because you've been holding it in for an age
yes i totally understand that perhaps in the backend they don't have the resources to implement currency changes but they should at least use the topic wall manipulation in a productive way and actually pin a topic about this to the top of the wall permanantly till a solution is achieved, even if that solution has to be bought, paid for and implemented by biggas and not the borgs

Yeah I think I’m at that level where the hype was too good to be true kind of thing.
It is a back end issue by the looks of it, I suppose all I can do while I’ve got my hyper focus is keep the topic relevant and in hope that it gets picked up one day that or until my hyper focus runs out 😂😂

I gave a reply earlier mainly because inwas out and about and didn't want to to lose this topic again.
I really hope they switch up and offer using monero and eth bitcoins got its usesn but. It's a terrible coin for the job.
It baffles me that there's an escrow service presumably raking it in but something as simple as a password change on transaxe takes a week. I feel like it's one person working part time so that being said there is no chance of more currencies being added.
Its a shame because I can only see bitcoin getting worse for fees and like others have said leaves LB exposed to competition.
Transaxe have been good at times, such as taking the hit in the high fees back in May (not sure if they have during this November spike).
I just hope we get to use monero and eth soon.

I have a post up looking for a dev in this matter. It's been up months with no replies. I spoke to admin, I have the requirements they say is needed before testing. The Admin are more than happy for alternatives if they can be proven. Anyone know how to write smart contracts in solidity with immutable logic?
I would try using wrapped trx stablecoin. It's shielded, so private, and most of all stable.
If you have the skills to do this I can help fund the project.

Ah right that’s good to know, so basically we need someone with experience in this area to push it on the way.
I will find your post and see if we can get it some traction am sure there’s someone with that sort of experience.

I'm the same. I've even had a look at what's involved and it's way above my pay grade. If I can get a good dev, I can probably get the mods and run it. There's obviously a monetary incentive through the fees.
Whatever is used has to integrate with LB too. That could be another road block, even if you had the system.

22 pounds for a 200 pound transaction. That’s where I draw a line with this. Love this site and the vendors but there really should be an alternative token not just because of this. Had one crypto/bank account shut down due to bitcoin issues also.
I probably make at least two transactions per week here but I won’t be with these fees. Maybe once a month. Hopefully a resolution which suits both sellers and buyers can be found. This really should be a priority considering how it could adversely affect sales.

I'm not an expert in Blockchain by any means but isn't this what the bitcoin lightning network was introduced to fix?
Could LB not integrate lightning network into its payment system? I'm sure last time I sent via lightning it was like 30p or less for the transaction and didn't involve anything complicated

Crazy netwrok fee as vendor was charged $10 on $149 whats happening on blockchain? GAW
FOR i think the only way they will add new payments is if the Vendors went on strike, especially the big vendors on here, if that does not work nothing will, but i think thats what should be done for the greater good, if it means after all parties either save or make more money in the long run it surely is worth the sacrifice.
I dont know how LB hasn't got multiple crypto options by now? I'll order on here when BTC fees are low but when they are high i have to go eleswere.

Currently my $$$ is going to be going elsewhere until fees make lb viable for me again. I'm a wee bit sad about that as I've been liking the site. I expect both customers & vendors will give up in the interim & find / use other markets or locals. It's a shame as it's a great community here and would seem relatively straightforward for a dev to add an alternative payment option which would help solidify the future of lb and mean it'd not shed its users on a crypto hiccup.

Surely you can implement a selection of payment methods, and we as buyers could use whichever is most convenient at the time
It'd be good for buyer, vendors and the Big Biggy.

I think you have failed to see what it is people want here, I’ve read down your comments, it’s not about the removal of BTC at all it’s about alternative.
Which turns out has been in the pipeline for a while just not picked up, I’ve seen blockhead is looking at running USDT alongside as an alternative.
I would prefer to pay in bit coin but at times like this I would also like to save what money I have and use a cheaper coin to allow for a more accessibility when it comes to payment and not just one.
For example, I normally buy your hashes which are banging and at a great price, so when I would finish ordering what i would normally order I would treat myself to one of your hashes. I haven’t been able to do that as the fee is replacing the price of the hash, neither of us gain anything apart from bitcoin.

Aye I don’t know as much about BTC as you, but there’s a way to have discourse without coming across as a condescending prick. You’re no better than anyone here, just because you’re a reputable seller it doesn’t mean you can talk down to anyone.

The issue is biggas fail to mention btc went up by 24.8% in the last 30 days .. and of course day traders are trading the shit out of btc hence the high fees/ delays and etc..
You inconsistent biggas only complain when btc fees are high but are all quite when fees are cheap and normal..
If you are FOR then Name one alternative coin that can match BTC…
Btc sorted us out for years and now cause the coin is pumping and fees are high everyone wants to jump ship 🤦♂️

it's not about jumping ship at all it's about having other options so we can continue to use this market when BTC fees render this market useless which has been over a week now, i can list off about 10 vendors that want other options like LTC or monero, if we were using LTC i would have about £500 a year extra to spend on here that isn't lost in BTC fees!
and a simple solution to your problem would just be to put in your manifesto that you only accept BTC no other coins, all orders in other currencies will be cancelled
we can't expect BTC to get more stable in the future, i can only see more frequent pumping and pisstake fees at this point amongst a few weeks of "Stability" here and there where the fees are still an absolute pisstake tbh
you probably noticed my lack of orders as well, i'm back to street dealers now lol

The thing is you can receive your funds in an alternative coin with low fees and faster transactions for the buyer, then swap it into BTC if you wanted BTC.
Hypothetical. You get £150 worth of ETH for the order and the buyer has only paid £152 total to pay and transfer funds for the order. Once funds are released to you , you can swap the £150 worth of ETH into BTC if you don't want it in ETH
If they paid using BTC that £150 order would cost them £180 , but you will still only get the £150 worth of BTC in the end. It costs the buyer an extra £30 just for using BTC. Not only is this not sustainable for the buyer but it's also not good for your business as it puts people off buying when fees are this high.

Why is it not reliable?
You can swap your ETH into BTC if you didn't want the alternative coin the second you received it, I don't really see the issue if you can simply swap it?

So I have to already wait 16 days for escrow to release the Money then I have to do another transaction to change it to BTC?..
you’ll have to do your own research why it’s not reliable when the creator can literally turn back time and reverse transaction or freeze funds etc..

Almost all crypto apps have swapping features built in, it takes seconds to swap thousands of dollars , you literally input the amount and click swap. It would take less time than the message you just typed out, yet saves your customers huge amounts on fees.
The few seconds it takes you to do the swap would be far outweighed by the increase In orders you would receive , and money you would make, if an alternative coin was accepted on here.

Increased orders for how long?
What happens when Police start to pressure the creator of ETH to freeze funds or reverse funds or wallets etc?
Bitcoin has been sufficient from day 1 and still is.. yes it’s temporary high fees but that’s only Temporary.
I think everyone is getting too comfortable buying drugs of the internet.

An increase in orders for ever hopefully, fees are higher than other coins even when they are normal.
It's not like it's a one off, this happens every few months with bitcoin and roughly once per year to the current extent. When fees are normal they are still higher on BTC compared to others. If bitcoin continues to increase like people speculate it will, then worse is yet to come for fees.
You can simply swap your coin to BTC, but having alternatives with lower fees cant be a bad thing. Maybe even an option for the seller to choose what coins they accept. No one is saying get rid of btc, but having alternatives can't be a bad thing.

BCH would be a real choice for this website however to replace or sit next to BTC for payments. BCH fees are tiny in comparison!
BTC has a potential successor, it's called Ergo (ERG).
Not saying it would be right coin for this website at the current time, but just putting it out there for awareness in case anyone didn't know about it already.

I don't know enough about it to comment, I did ask for more info but you mentioned I would have to do my own research.
If vendors can choose what coin they accept, they accept the risks that come with the coin they choose. You can stick to BTC and others can choose what every they are comfortable with accepting.

It's not just about the fees I would much prefer to use a privacy focused coin like monero. There are chain analysis companies tracking every bitcoin payment
Thanks. “You” well that’s not true, check my short post history. And as I stated I have had other issues with bitcoin that have nothing to do with fees.
Nobody said jump ship, if you read the OP - we want an alternative option, which I don’t think isn’t reasonable for a variety of reasons? If we’re talking of dumping BTC completely then yes, then this should be a different discussion but that’s not what we’re talking about at least to my eyes.

It’s not bitcoin fault that your sending btc directly to the site or for whatever reason your bnk wants to close your account..
I have trust in the admins.. they sorted us out when shit hits the fan and they have a reason to sticking to btc..
I hope they can see past the riffraff and continue stick to only BTC..
because for many reasons one being BTC creator is Satoshi.
Someone mention FTT.. I don’t know if they taking the piss but that’s a known Scam coin.
Another person said USDT.. the creators of USDT are the biggest crooks.. check out coffeezilla on YouTube and see what he thinks.. his probably the biggest crypto scam buster..
All coins have flaws the most reliable is BTC.

INITIATIVE: ADD LITECOIN PAYMENT
Littlebiggy is in a bad state right now! Sales have dramatically dropped due to the high BTC fees people are going elsewhere come on borgs please add a Litecoin payment option it has very small fees and faster confirmation times than Bitcoin it’s a no brainer! I know this has been suggested for many years but nothing has been implemented and we are paying the price now! There are other markets that accept different crypto once people start finding out they will never come back here for the sake for the future of this place WE NEED LITECOIN TO BE ADDED NOW!!
FOR (but not a chance!)
I think a major frustration for loyal biggas is the typical administrative silence. There is no sense that we are in this together, no recognition of the problem. A simple pinned update on progress for change and a tactful expression of regret for something thats been a problem now for years would be something.
Yes, OK, we might be just a bunch of hopeless stoners and troublesome weirdos but a lot of people need and use this site not for recreation but for medication and I think that deserves a little empathy....

FOR i feel like BTC is gonna be the death of this site. You dont realize just how many other options there are out there, until you have to look. People are just gonna move on unfortunately
I wonder what the reason is for the admins being so quiet on this? I find it very curious that they don't tell us anything. The silence gives me the impression that they have no intention of implementing a new payment system but don't want to say this in case loads of people go elsewhere because they know a lot of us are holding out hope. I can't really think of any other reason. If it was a case of not being able to find developers to implement it then surely there's no reason they can't just say that. People will understand and hold onto the hope that someday, hopefully soon, they will find someone who can. But as it stands it looks like they don't give a fuck, they know the network fees will come down again, probably quite soon, and they'll be raking it in again.
LB don't address it because they are completely separate entities from the payment processors.
There are definitely teams with ambitions of bringing a new payment option as soon as possible although you can't rush this sort of thing.
One of those teams has given many updates but are still months away from launching.
As for the OP, Litecoin is not viable as far as I am concerned due to the requirements LB demand from processors.

I still can't see why the admins don't communicate with us on this. Surely they are up to speed on the latest developments of these teams that are working on implementing a new payment option.
Like probably many people, I fall into both of those groups. Am both a stoner weirdo and have pain to deal with. The latter mostly self inflicted due to extreme sport hobbies for too many years but it doesn't make it hurt less. This hiccup though means it's not viable for me to order right now whereas I was a regular spender here. It also means long term I need a better plan-b in case this happens again. I hope the admins can get it sorted.
I know it’s been hot topic for years many vendors calling for change in the payment system unfortunately it seems like it’s fallen on deaf ears or maybe the admins haven’t found anyone to work on it. It’s a highly sensitive area to work in reality I’m sure it’s not easy to get developer on board for an illegal site.
I see my great freind cleanup borg has liked the post. If you can see this please tell your borg buddies to get this sorted the site is going to shit lol!

FOR - realise this is not the first time this topic has cropped up but would be a good opportunity to address it or as Polly mentioned, any update would be welcomed. I suspect a big drop in usage would not be good for LB. But I am sure local plugs down the road won’t mind the extra bit of business. that is the boat a lot of customers will find themselves in I think esp. as times are hard enough financially for most.
For - I it’s been a running topic for a while now, Blockhead had a project going but there has been no update on that. It’s definitely an issue but somehow LB powers through, I’ve seen a couple of clear net sites pop up and go down in the last couple of months.
I’ve limited my buys to when the price is right but that seems far and few between.

Competitions will be based on the outcome of a sporting event.
For example UFC 300 last weekend.
Competetion: Who Wins Via(Ko,Tko,Sub) What round and time?
Biggas would guess who wins via (Ko, Tko,Sub, Dq, ect..) from rounds 1 to 5 and pick a time between 0:00 and 5:00.
First answer for the round and time goes to who ever comments it first if two biggas pick the same outcome.
Picks would close the day of weigh ins for the fights.
If the fight does not end in a finish and goes to a decision. the competition will be ran the same on another upcoming bout and the prize will doubled.
The bigga who gets the correct or closest to the correct outcome of the fight wins.
Hope this makes sense and should be provably fair.

I run comps at work. Generally speaking the more complicated they are the less people will enter. Competitions with the least amount of brain power needed tend to do best. However I wouldn't want to put a vendor off running a comp. I think they are part of what makes LB great. Good luck with it.

Fancy a change from hashish
Might like Keep it Green KIG. Orangina / mimosa would fill your criteria I believe.

What weed is banging???
Preferably from the UK
PGR free
and lots of beautiful terps
suggestions appreciated

Not a lot tbh, strong terps are such an extreme rarity at this point due to the complete shift in approach that the entire industry has taken worldwide
good terps come from crops grown with utmost care and love and absolutely 0 focus on profits, only good weed, good luck finding anyone still doing this in todays world!
the absolute vast majority of weed grown now that we all smoke is grown entirely for profit, and all the steps required for good terps eat into profits heavily
hash is where the terps are at nowadays, good hash though, not just average commercial blondes etc

Although its not a personal favourite have you seen the reviews for Mimosa Evo from Keep It Green?....
You could also have a chat with Druids Magic about anything left in their apothecary drawers....you might be amazed.
Terpiest hash on here right now is the Barz range from either SensiMart, RealD or THC23...

Thank you for taking time to explain, I suspected most weed is just grown by profiteers vs heads these days. Gonna stick with the high end hash. Much appreciated, light and blessings x
I'd echo Polly's comment - i don't really do green these days but KIG's mimosa is lovely.
The Blue Gelato was something else if he's got any left

Got some great options in at the moment. Rainbow Zoap and RS11, both very terpy and reduced this week.
We have a mix of strains and a few free competitions at the moment pal. Would obviously recommend our Gelato 41 as we are only listing it for a small amount of time as we want to keep it for smokes.
Try different vendors and find your preference. If you enter our competition good luck!

I'd be all over your samples usually - I often end up ordering a bit after. It's a great service to try bits out. But like many people I can't afford the current fees. Am probably going to have to see a local today - if I can still find one. Hope vendors like you can hold on through this bad patch & fees get sorted.

Vouch of approval, connoisseur-level hash
Sensi were kind enough to offer me a sample of this hash, and WOW, I must say I will be coming back for more.
This stuff does not play around. As soon as I opened it a strong, delicious terpy smell emanated from the jar. Hitting this on the Carta at a low temp (475 Fahrenheit) produces nice quality clouds and delicious, floral tasting hits. If you’re a fan of tropical tasting strains, this is it at its finest forms.
The hash does not fully melt at a low temp dab but the vendor does not claim it does. I recommend swabbing the atomizer every hit, and dropping it into alcohol and cleaning thoroughly after the session is done. This is worth the trouble and all hash extracts will leave some residue if you choose to dab them.
This hash matches the quality of Piattella at Uncle’s Farm BCN, which was coined as the best in the world by Puffco’s founder. This level of extraction is in its own league and truly a love letter to those who are passionate about the flavour profiles the holy herb has to offer.
If you’re a connoisseur and want to try next level extraction, where the terps are kept in the forefront this is the right place to start and maybe even end if the menu gets expanded. I’ll surely be returning soon, I don’t think my current gram will last me long.
Vouch of approval, if it catches your eye and you can afford it, buy it 👍
Side tip: if you’re hitting hash out of an atomizer, I’d recommend getting a dedicated one for your device which you’ll use exclusively for hash. It’ll make your life easier in the long run. It is worth noting that even at full melt purity, hash will stain and wear your atomizer hardware way faster than other extractions which are more commonly dabbed.

Cool review thanks- everyone is loving this!🥰
Just on technique- I dedicate an atomiser solely to this as I would never swab them out and use iso. In my experience it will never taste right again. The residue is not a problem, it’s like a seasoned pan, and there is no flavour mix up because it’s dedicated. Also, if I just want to hit it once (and that does me on this!) it’s just sitting there for me next time, I just top up with a little fresh.
That said we are talking about two different atomisers, I use an AceCup🤓👍

I love the idea of seeing it as a seasoned pan! You’re 100% right on just needing to hit it once for most people. I am a very heavy user and a few rice grain sized hits from here and I am set for the evening!
This is a wee bit spendy for me. I've made bubble before but I've got no idea how you'd get it to come out like this. It looks incredible, more like an extract. Maybe I'll dip in for a special occasion. Nice review. Thanks.
There has been a price drop on this and I can confirm that it’s a fucking excellent dab 😮💨😶🌫️
I think this will be a payday treat instead of an extract. I'm fairly new to lb so have been trying few different weeds, making my own edibles from distillate and trying extracts and concentrates as those aren't easy to find locally (for me). I've been reading about making the full spec so might see how close I can get to making it using household items. Generally I do one bubble run each year just for fun & curiosity - the best hash I've ever had was one I made. This stuff is another level though.
You tube has a lot to answer for.
They make the process of making bubble hash so easy and get shit loads of return.
Problem is they are using shit loads of weed 🙄
Yea LB and some bigga’s have a lot to answer for regarding what and how I consume my gear.
Hard work and more money than I’ll admit too the missies rewarded with Good times lol 💨💨😮💨😶🌫️

It seems to me equal parts art & science. There's definitely a knack to it going really well. My consumption has definitely expanded into new directions since joining lb. I'm still in kid-in-sweet-shop mode.

Could someone give me the head up on how long the average refund takes ?
You’ll get a message asking for a wallet address and once you provide this it’s normally with you in 2-3 days unless transaxe are under pressure..
This is what I was here to find out. I just replied with my wallet address and kinda expected something else to happen to confirm things were in motion. Hopefully all good and it'll go though in good time.
Hi there
I have tried to message Transaxe as I placed an order but it expired before my coin arrived. I have tried to message Transaxe but it keeps logging me out when I try messaging them.
Any ideas and advice would be greatly appreciated. Cheers.

Go to your own chat page and click +new at the top left. Type in transaxe and you can then message them directly. Include your order number if you have it and date of expired order. Good luck👍

Anyone else using revolut having to wait ages for confirmation on Blockchain paid 2.30 in network fees and it's been 4 hours usually never takes over a hour
no, but happened to me and a few other people i think yesterday from bittylicious. took 4.5 hrs to go through, didn't need to do anything though. if you're going to miss a cutoff maybe message the vendor, you might not be the only one.
Buying btc through banks will alway take longer than usual, best to try trust wallet with moon pay :)
Update it has now cleared within 20 minutes after resending it thank u for everyone for the comments
Same, I've been waiting for approx 4 hours too. They have in app notification advising of delays though. It does happen occasionally.
