Just dont buy it, i'd rather never smoke again than smoke that crap.

I know mate, but sadly I have to admit - if I can't get anything decent, I'll buy contaminated weed. Then again, I'll go to serious lengths to find a good smoke, and I'll buy as much as there is when I find it. So with a quick grow underway and a good stash at hand, I'm thinking I'll never have to smoke that shit again. I feel for anyone who can't get good stuff, and I feel for all those kids who just don't know what they're smoking.

It's amazing that nobody really seems to know who is doing it, or exactly what they're doing. Presumably some big commercial growers are adding something throughout flowering, but it's got to take a lot of growing to flood the UK market, so these are major players in the industry. It's pretty fucked up that they would go from making lots of millions with good weed, to making a couple more millions with nasty contaminated weed.

I'm quite worried I've been smoking contaminated stuff for the last few months. Finally found the best dealer I've known and he usually deals two different kinds. 1 of them looks like the pic above except its more leaf than bud and also a dark shade of green.

The other kind is a much lighter green and its quite dry, it grinds easily as opposed to the darker weedy stuff.

I'll check it out more closely next time I get it, does anyone know what I've been smoking? It'd be great to start identifying it now.

Jesus, this is all a bit frightening. Apart from when I was about 17 and smoking really bad solid, which resulted in fucking up my life a bit at the time, I've only really smoked what my mates have brought round and I was always pretty sure they wouldn't buy anything less than top drawer tackle. But it is clearly very hard to tell.
Got a real taste for it again recently which is why I decided to grow it myself. Thank god I did.

So I'm in need of advice. Lately I've encountered what I presume to be contaminated cannabis in my area (Newcastle-East). The first thing that drew my attention was when my mate had a bong, he said "****ing hell, that's harsh that, you should check it for fibre glass." Unfortunately I don't have any pics of the bud, but I can surely discribe it. What we got was groups of really small buds, it looked more brown that green due to the hairs, but it wasn't brown, if you get me. You could see little coatings of powder down on the stems and there was a lot of stems. I wont say the coatings were thick, but the "crystals" were visible on the stems.

After grinding it up, I smeared my finger across the powder in he bottom of my tin. If I rolled it in my fingers it didn't get sticky, I could feel particles rollong around they pretty much dissapeared off of my finger. I done it again and touched my tounge and all I could taste was salt, that's it. It was like I picked a stone up off of the beach anjd started sucking on it.

After that, I got rid of it. It was harsh, stemmy as hell and tasted like salt, not good to me. Can anyone confirm that this was in fact grit weed? Or anyone near by me who has been given similar stuff? Either way it seems this shit ist still about. I gave up smoking soap after doing some research on the net, now I start smoking green in light of purity, now find the majority of it to be impure.

I'd love to know what's so significant about the UK, that we deserve being ripped off. Most expensive quantities, impurist qualities, it sucks...

That sounds exactly like some form of grit weed Geordie.

I won't put up with it now, which results in me paying £60 a Q.

WOW!!! I just payed £50 for a Q and thought i'd had my pants pulled down. That just made me feel slightly better.

Wow, different guy, similar stuff. This sucks beyond belief man. Will get as best pics up as I can, I want some good opinions on this before I trash it...

Lol, £60 a Q of decent stuff? That would do me just fine. I'd get 1.1 of this shit for £10, too right it's a joke...

Ive had a fair bit of real skanky shit through lately, a few real cracking examples of blueberry and cheese in between to make things better, but nonetheless it is horrible when homegrown shit just isnt available. I proper lost my rag at a guy who tried to sell me an underweight bag that had obviously been cut, not interested in supporting this attempt to rip us off.

This is unbelievable!

So I just threw away some more weed that looks suspicious. It passed the lick test, but when I shone a flame over it, you could see loads of tiny little sparkly bits I assumed was contaminants. I was right in doing so, yes? It's really hard determining this stuff, it gave me a bit of a bad chest so...

Can someone confirm little shiny pieces are in fact glass beads? I've been getting some stuff that doesn't look so bad, but sparkles under light and the reflected light is uniform when waved across the area of the particle.

Dunno if you get the "beaster" from canada that far south, i'm in new england, but it is also full of sprayed shit and chemicals from commercial grows. am starting to suspect some of it to be sand/ sugar blasted.

take the seeds out of your mexi brick weed though and do an outdoor grow, i grew some of that shit indoor recently and got about 3oz's of nice untainted sativa smoke.

Weed has always had stuff in it .... commercial Nigerian was grown in fields full of datura weeds which often ended up in with the stuff when it was pressed ... 'mindy weed' was what Nigerians used to call it due to its hallucinogenic properties .....nails in lumps of hash, which is a piss off ...... henna mixed in, which is not good for your lungs

its been even longer than that mate. first time i saw this shite was late 2005. The thing which worries me most is that many people still dont believe that a thing such as contanabis even exists. i get looked at like some paranoid fruitcake when i tell people.

'contanabis' love it mate :D


i know what you mean, some people are so thick or naive i cant comprehend it, or they are in serious denial.

recently a lad got ahold of some and he claimed it was 'deoderised' to get it in the country, i wouldnt touch the shit, but he and friends happily smoked it all up. it was covered, not the glassy stuff, but horrible and hard nonetheless.

Okay read through the thread a bit but have a few questions.

- What are the main things to look out for with contaminated weed?
- Is there any to tell by the smell / a few tokes if you haven't actually rolled the joint yourself and seen the weed.

Watched those videos and I don't know enough about weed to know if I've been smoking good stuff as it's just been from mates, etc who probably don't know about contaminated cannabis either, so it's left me crapping myself a little :s

Help a brother out!

P.S Is asking if anyone knows a good dealer a no-no on the forums?

I was wondering, are pesticides soluable in water? A lot of the stuff I've been getting lately seems to have been sprayed, however the gritty/sandy flavour/texture isn't present (tastes more chemically), which I assume it's been sprayed with pesticides. I was wondering whether the "gumby" method would be a good way of eradicating these contaminants? If I have some truely crap stuff (beyond belief), I don't mind letting it float about in icey water for a few hours to try and meld the pesticide and water together, leaving behind the tricomes/glass (if there is any).

Depending on the quality (whatever crappy level it might be) I usually make a calculated choice to smoke it (I'm a tramp) or not. I've dumped weed a few times when I've found obvious pieces of glass in it, but I'll usually just use a cigarette filter and a piece of tightly rolled up tobacco to help block the "glass" from flying through the end of the zoot.

But yeah, if it's dumpable, no harm in trying out the gumby method, right?

Don't think I've ever had grit weed... Someone I know had some and it totally fucked him over - he was hospitalised for over a week.

You'll hear about some poor fellow every now and again who tried to score some weed and ends up with some of the most expensive cooking herbs they've ever bought. :rolleye:

I'm sure I've had pot with coke in it before - quite the suprise if you're not expectin it... :omg:

I've had some stuff with tranquilizers in it, before. I slept for about two days solid after that. Don't need any of that crap in my weed, thanks. :kill:

The way I see it is that scum who like profiteering from contamabiss are actually helping pro-hibition, it lets the politicions turn round and say something along the lines of "see we told you cannabis was dangerous, now are you going to listen to us"? when in actual fact the very reason contamabiss exists is because of pro-hibition.

Bought some yesterday...the first I knew about it was when the ash wouldn't flick off the end of my joint. Got my loupe out and it looks like sugar crystals all over the fecking stuff even on the brown hairs. I'll see if I can take a photo but I've never tried taking a picture through a loupe so we'll have to see. Real shame, it's strong weed as well !

Obviously, contaminated weed isn't usually so easy to spot....no one would buy that shit.
I'll try and get a photo of it in the hand and then under a loupe. The main give away for me before I'd even smoked it was that I buy by the Oz so it looked underweight....should of gone with my gut but I was dry so...:blush:

Yes, I'm afraid, and I'm also glad to say, yes :)

Got a couple mates near Vancouver who have picked up sprayed bud. Wasn's sprayed with sugar but little glass balls(much like the picture recently posted in this thread) but yes, it's extremely easy to pick it up under a scope. Just make sure all the crystals are on the end of their own little stems and it should be fine! :D

a guy i know from work had some like this the other day. no its not thc. yes it is sprayed . dont smoke the contanabis.

an easy way to find out if its thc or not is to see if it binds together. collect a small amount of "thc". press your forefinger on it, then cover with your thumb. let it heat up for a few seconds, then start to roll it ever so slightly. if it is thc it will start to get sticky and begin to bind together. if it doesnt its not thc

i think it should be mentioned that there are many types of contaminated weed out there, NOT ALL OF IT WILL CRUNCH IN YOU MOUTH... SOME IS CONTAMINATED WITH SUGAR PRODUCTS.... the only way to really tell is like lk said, get a tester, and a dealer you can trust to tell you the truth... THE CRUNCH TEST DOES NOT ALWAYS WORK! HAVE A SPLIFF AND YOU WILL KNOW WHETHER IT TASTES RITE OR NOT...

True dat.

This contaminated shit was in London and South East a couple of years back.

They started off spraying with a silicon sollution, this is the grit that got stuck on your teeth.

After this they moved onto a glucose solution, this gives the weed acrunchy coating and makes it taste of burnt sugar.

Both these methods add weight, but also prolong the time you can store the weed in damp, cold places or buried under ground.

Luckily round here people refused it and dealers were sending it back.
Seems to have stopped down here now cos of that, but i get reports that its started up north.

DaileySmoker
12-07-09, 09:20 AM
Yeah Spraggs, from near manchester and pretty much all import is sprayed but the homegrown can be really good. When i tested too see if it was sprayed i got crystals and put them on my finger and rubbed, they went darker and clumped together which i think is right.

But it still tasted unusually harsh on the throat.

Spraggs

Be really careful. Particularly if its the silicone shit. the burning hot silicon beads hitting your lungs is bad news. avoid like plague.

Unfurtunatly in my experience, most of the weed your gonna buy in uk will be damp, unflushed, chemically grown and picked early. This is because the people growing/selling In bulk are unscrupuless criminals who only give a fuck about making money.

Thats why i am starting my first grow, and have joined this forum. Thats the only true way to get pukka crow every time.

Yeah really hard to get hold of some good strong shit unless you know personally a grower who just grows for personal use and friends. I decided to grow as well - you got a diary?? Read about dealers spraying with cellulose products so it doesn't feel gritty in the mouth. Was wondering if anyone knew if this was harmful or just a harsh taste!!!

It can't be good for you hey mate. :puke:

There was some stuff very similar to what you are talking about and it was called Brix that you can spray on your plants to bulk them up and it changes the taste & colour to. Although they claim it to be Organic i wouldn't trust it tbh as there is no mention of the ingredients. :puke:

I got an O of orange bud yesterday and it was a little on the damp side and although it didnt show any signs or mold it smelt a little weird and was rough in the back of my throat after a few drags, I've been drying it out all day and its pretty crispy now but I've noticed the colour of the g is now unusually pale.

As I said before the bud shows no visual signs of mold at all which makes this a bit puzzling

This is my first post so if I have said something I shouldn't please let me know!

Bought an 8th with a few friends last month, it was a very light shade of green, and was most certainly sprayed, which wasn't to bad on its own.. What got me was the way it iritated the back of my throat. After asking around I found out it was part of a batch that had fiberglass added to it, talking to another dealer he said "they add fiberglass to make it weigh more, and it cuts the back of the throat allowing more thc to get in" I'm pretty sure thats bullshit, but in any case my health is a dam site more importent than saving a few quid and getting stoned a little quicker.

Jesus, is this shit STILL about? I won't say 'I told you so', but until people start refusing to smoke it, it will never go away. I outsourced for my supply a few years back and have not smoked street gear since.

In Anglia, I can confirm that many amateurs still abound, knocking out damp, fusty smelling stuff harvested too soon and cured too poorly.

Not sure about contaminants but neither is great.

Bah what next?

Latest cannabis contamination - homosildenafil and thiohomosildenafil (AKA Viagra)

by UKCIA

Cannabis isn’t a controlled drug, it’s an illegal one. The practical upshot of this is street supplies are contaminated and, it seems, an ever more regular basis.

The first mass scare we were aware of of course was “soap bar”, adulterated hash. Then came microscopic glass beads sprayed into herbal cannabis, recently we heard of lead shot being added and now we have the latest reports of contamination: Liquid containing homosildenafil and thiohomosildenafil - which belong to the same class of ‘erectogenic’ chemicals as sildenafil - more commonly known as Viagra.

UKCIA first heard rumours of this a couple of weeks back but we’ve just had proper confirmation as it’s reported in the recent article in Forensic Science International - for which New Scientist (1/11/08) gives the reference DOI: 10.1016/j.forsciint.2008.09.002 - by Dries de Kaste et al, at the National Institute of Public Health & the Environment in the Netherlands.

The New Scientist wrote:

Is cannabis being doped with Viagra?
New Scientist
Thursday 30 Oct 2008

THAT illegal drugs are not always pure is no surprise, but is cannabis being laced with a Viagra-like compound?

Dries de Kaste and colleagues at the National Institute of Public Health and the Environment in Bilthoven, the Netherlands, analysed a liquid that police found being sold on the streets of Utrecht as a “marijuana adulterant”.

They found compounds called homosildenafil (HS) and thiohomosildenafil (THS) in it, which belong to the same class of compounds as sildenafil, sold as Viagra. All three inhibit the breakdown of an enzyme that dilates blood vessels in the penis, increasing blood flow.

De Kaste does not know why HS and THS are being added to cannabis, but speculates that it could be to enhance the uptake of its psychoactive constituents, or to exploit a perception that marijuana use affects libido.

HS and THS were not destroyed when they were “smoked” using a laboratory simulator
(Forensic Science International, DOI: 10.1016/j.forsciint.2008.09.002). The health effects of inhaling such “erectogenics” - and the compounds they produce when burned - are unknown.
From issue 2680 of New Scientist magazine, 29 October 2008, page 6

This paper seems to be online on the Forensic Science International website, but is only available to subscribers and it seems impossible to even obtain the abstract.

Now whatever the dangers of cannabis may or may not be, clearly adding an unknown risk like this isn’t going to reduce those dangers. We can only speculate whether our own government is aware of this issue and why they see fit not to warn the millions of cannabis users that could be affected by it.

Why isn’t this information made public? Well, of course if the government made it known that prohibition was putting peoples lives at risk in the way that it is, perhaps people would start to complain about the stupidity of the policy that creates such a situation. That’s why they keep quiet.

holy shit. thats just sacralige! why the fuck ruin a perfectly good smoke. as if the greedy bastards dont make enuff money already.why stamp all over it with something like that. theres loads more safer methods to add weight to product. personaly i dont get it. weed is weed and as long as its not total crap, pretty much every1 i know wouldn't say no whatever it is. who says to their dealer when scoring their average henry, "nah m8 i dont want it, its not crystally enuff for me". its not bothered anyone for the last XX years why start now. its certainly not something that ive heard or seen b4. bah. it really fuckin winds me up. as i said, broken fucking glass.. i just dont get it :/

who knows what the hell they are gonna start to put in it next? HEROIN so we start to get more stoned AND physicaly fucked up & addicted. to be honest, with the shite thats been added lately, this wouldnt suprise me at all in the future...

oh i sympathise with your aggression mate i think every1 gets aggrivated when it comes to contaminants in beautiful nugs! and your point on the government is well taken i supose thers nuthin we can do as long as draconian arseholes still run government. Although if people make the connection that its actually caused by prohibition it would be positive media exposure. but the government will always spin it away from the truth

Some fucking retard from holyhead came to my house recently to sell me some ganja since my grow wasnt finished and he had the nerve to slam a KILO pillow of grit weed on MY TABLE IN MY HOUSE!!! Never ever had i been more paranoid belive me! On top or what!
At first i hugged the bag because id never seen such weightage in my area and initially thought it was good bud but when i realised what it was and the fact it came from MANCHESTER and theres loads and loads more of this shit (he was glorifying how "big time" it was) i launched the cheeky fucktard out of my house and warned him not to come here or anywhere in my area to sell his shit again under threat of beating.
cheeky twats need to be told that they are killing people and selling that shit will not be tolerated.

Really though, I blame the police and the government for busting homegrowers all the time , opening the market for real criminals.

I've spoken to dealers about it, always the same answer. They can get hold of un-sprayed weed, but have to sell it at £25 and 1/8th. The sprayed stuff they can sell at £20 and still make a good profit. From what I've heard, they get no were near enough people through that are willing to pay the £25 to keep them in business so are forced to sell the sprayed shite. Still, you could easily say "well stop fucking people over with contaminated weed, it's only money vs. people's health".

Go figure.

p.s. For what it's worth, I see plenty of the "sandy" weed, but have never come across the glass or grit weed thank god, those look horrible (although I'm sure the sand weed is baaaad too!).

sup dudes and dudettes,

This is my first ever post. I live in south uk and ive seen my fair share of ruined bud, from sand to sugar. At first it was so obvious with grit in your teeth or once i even bought an oz. that tasted like popcorn it had so much sugar on it.

It's still not like the old days when great shit was popping up regularly. I'm soon off for my second year of university and decided to stock up before i went. I got a half for £100 - i'm aware of this wak rate. Its nice and big, light green, and what looks like a lot of trichomes. I've inspected it for hours under a macro lens and cannot identify any blatent tampering, neither does dust or grit fall off or can you feel grit between your teeth. It is dry and doesn't have much of a smell, i was wondering if those gippo dealers are getting smarter and using practically untraceable methods?

Its a real shame i have become suspicious of any nice looking buds i buy on the street, partially the reason im on the brink of growing myself.

Also, some suspicious cannabis ive smoked has caused almost immediate headache, especially on my frontal lobes....any idea there?

kind regards.

25-09-09, 02:37 AM
Just smoked a couple of cones of this suspicious weed and these are the symptons it has; solid black ash when rubbed between fingers, effort to burn, harshness on throat and lungs.

Is there still chemicals and nutrients in it that im smoking?
will water-curing transform the rest of my batch?
how bad is it for you to smoke it?

advice needed asap tah

25-09-09, 12:21 PM
Sounds like sillicon, or sugar sprayed bud. Water curing may very well be the way forward, unless it's been dipped in a solution, instead of sprayed, then there's not much you can do.. But that sounds sprayed to me :) and yes it is bad for you to smoke it, extra carcinogenic material your lungs really don't need

Usually the sprayed stuff that my dlr sells which he hasnt sold in ages always seemed to be bright green like light lime green coloured. It wouldnt burn properly and the ash turned black and hard instead of grey and powdery as it should.

When he sells unsprayed good shit it's almost always dank as hell and dripping with resin and covered in it with great taste and a hybrid stone/high. The buds being compact, sticky and sometimes with amber resin all over it, except wheen it's a white strain and always compact.

I dont know how much my dlr buys his for but he sells both sprayed and good quality bud at the same price, also quantity decided apon how dry the bud is. One time had an amazing 1.4 off him completley dry white rhino literally filled a baggy up. Other times some compact sticky dank, usually a single bud.

Sometimes he sells amazingly fair deals, other times mediocre deals.. He's never sold a Q of sprayed though he only tends to sell quarters when he's got the good stuff.. and that's usually when I do my business with him hehe.

In 15 years of smoking, I have never encountered anything this sinsister...

this is a very scary reality. i have never heard of this happening, but then again i guess being on the north west coast of the US its not going on here like in the UK. everything here is home grown, i mean, if you flew in a helicopter around here youd see every other home probably has an outdoor op going on (i cant imagine how many indoor ops there are!). theres probably too much dank this time of year! so grow your own, theres nothing better, nothing more satisfying, than tasting your own medicine!

and good luck over there guys, my heart goes out to any one whos been affected by this epidemic. we have the power to stop this, stay smart and be careful!

I got sum weed yesterday that smelt really really weird! It smelt like some sort of chemical, the buds seemed damp in a weird way like it had all been dipped in something and left 2 dry! Wot would it be?!!?

jhon konners
07-12-09, 10:46 AM
i dont no but it sounds like u need to put sum anthracis on a tampac and slap your dealer till he cant stand.

went to get bud last night look like nice bud smelt like sawdust and was 0.9 not even a gram well i told him where to stick it and got 4 gram resin

Can't say that I have seen such a thing in my neck of the woods over here on the other side of the pond.... I am usually rather picky when it comes to picking up.
One thing I can't stand is when someone along the way sprays perfume on the buds to "disquise" a pathetic attempt to hide or conceal the smell of a stank batch before you buy it... some people :confused:

anywho....

i wish it was so easy.... i really do... as i've said before its not easy to get clean bud say 1 out of 8 dealers will have clean bud every 1-2 month or so. and most home growers dont want to deal or allready have there friends to sell to.... its bollox.

this is the main reason i have started my own grow. during grows its really hard for me to find decent weed. around here what hgere doing is selling contaminated weed alittle bit damp so u cant see the shit on it untill its dry. this does really really piss me off:smiliegojerkit:

i remember a time where nice weed was constantly around! i keep seeing lightly sprayed stuff wich is realy hard to spot, ive been fooled several times. i normally realise its contam from the dirt taste and smell and black ash and under closer inspection there are very few crystals on the outside but on the inside there are loads. i can tell when i smoke contam weed but i cant always see if its contam. so i try to get the low quality homegrowny stuff lol.

Tay
11-01-10, 05:15 PM
Yeah, alot of the time contaminants are confused with trichomes... Best get a loupe/microscope to be sure. Usually the contaminants are larger and cleaner cut (has more fine edges) than trichs. In my experience that is.

OMG!

This has completely confirmed that growing my own is deffo the best option , I cant believe how many lowlifes there are about. I just hope my crop picks up am in the process of trying to sort em out as I am pretty sure have over fed them (will probably refer pics and questions to infirmary if they dont pick up) as I dont ever want to buy off a dealer again. I was lucky for a while as one of my friends was growing so used to get really good deals but she's moved away now so stuck again (going to visit her soon am praying shes decided to start growing again but I doubt it as she gave me her last plants and light).

I know the guys I occassionally buy off wouldnt do anything to the stuff themselves but theres no way of knowing if who they got it from are going to be as trustworthy (plus I know these guys well enough to know they probably dont check which is enough to put me off buying from them again)

Thanks for bringing this to my attention I didnt even know anything about it, I have enough health problems without adding to them with this shite!

And this means I aint gonna be buying any for a while, oh well dodgy painkillers for a while then grrr I miss my smoke havent had any for a few weeks, I gonna be mashed when mine is finally done oh what a joyous day that will be!

so grow your own

Contaminated weed IS a problem and its the reason i started growing my own... Ive been buying & smoking everyday for the past 9 years and got a total of 12 years of smoking. Ive seen all the crap someone could get in all this period. From buds that were sunk in gasoline and smelling and tasting like gasoline to sand-added buds. The worst part is that you cant event blame it on the dealers since they are not doing it, they just get it this way. So if im smart and dont buy it, some one will eventually buy it since the dealer already has it, so there is no reason for the people adding the sand to ever stop doing it.
Only solution i can think of is growing your own. My goal is to produce enough weed for my personal use, and my dream is to never buy from dealers again.

We've had grit weed down South UK for a few years now. There's no end to the stuff. I know pretty much all the dealers in the area and none of them have had any clean ting for a while. Sometimes a nice bit of old fashioned thai-stick sorta thing comes along, which is usually clean, but skunk? - no chance.

To be honest I think there's more to it than simple greed among growers. It's no secret that New Labour launched a war on ganja a few years back, starting with the declassification of cannabis. This lowered everyone's guard and allowed the police to locate the majority of growers. Soon after that they went around busting them all, though strangely enough the people who produce grit weed haven't been caught yet....

So, with global population levels spiraling out of control it seems that 'unproductive', against-the-grain drug users are being targeted for extinction. Make no mistake this is a conscious effort by the authorities to wipe people out.

Grow your own.

I hate that it always comes down to this with humans. They come up with a good idea, work it, then they get greedy & want more, but dont want to put more effort in. Cant blame them, if i was a seller & my living counted on it, i would immediately look for ways of making more for less. But i would stop straight away as soon as people getting hurt came into the equation! Like these fucking farmers, lets feed all these cattle some awesome food, then we'll feed them some steroid growth nutrients, then dont even have the decency to flush the fucker for a few weeks before harvest!! It aint just weed, people take advantage of everything n take it too far!! I personally dont mind the sprayed weed, is a problem that is easily solved for me! Just dont by the shit.We are the problem here!!! Carry a pocket micro that you can buy for under 20 quid n check it! It''s the ones that settle for the sprayed shit that tells the dealer he's onto something! If no one bought it, even these simpletons would understand that there new methods was gash. But oh no, i aint had a smoke in days, hurts my throat to fuck but hey, nothing else out there!! It's called will power! My main tip.... Grow your own! check out the diary, oh yeah! It's the problems you cant solve you should be worried about! Everyone is sprayin these days & i aint just talkin about the weed!! Plant a seed n spread the word, it's all you can do!

If this was anything else there would be outcry but since were "drug users" who choose to break the law (like they give us any choice), it's perfectly fine for people to attempt to kill us and fuck up our lungs. Even the cop says so in the video on page 14, because we break one of the 60 million the laws in order to put a substance into our OWN bodys were not entitled to the protection of the only true law to not harm another living soul? from a problem criminalisation has caused?

Well this is very interesting, this is the first time I've ever heard of this but creating awareness about it is also just teaching people how do it. I agree people should just grow their own. Unfortunately a lot of people don't have that option due to legal situations and government regulations, if you don't own a house then you probably wont have that luxury if your just a renter and will find yourself buying pot off the street anyway. It makes me sick to think people are that fu*ked up that they would potentially hurt someone over a couple extra bucks. Come on now people if you cant afford to sell pot then your in the wrong buisness. But I definitely appreciate the heads up thanks guys!

The only contaminated weed I have encountered where I live (Amsterdam, LOL) was from a seedy coffeeshop called "Ben's" (avoid like the living plague). They looked like fresh buds, but they crumbled into dust when squeezed. When I lit it, it sizzled and burnt into hard black chunks, spreading a smell of ammonia and burning plastic. Thin white smoke came off and it tasted awful!

My guess it was either a pesticide or maybe bits of plastic mixed in with the weed to increase weight; I have heard of flakes of green plastic being mixed in with weed by some streetdealers in the red light district.

GeeFunk
19-04-10, 06:06 PM
The go to guys round by me call this stuff "Import" and it is shocking. They try to sell it for £15 on the 8th or 4.5g 8th to try and tempt people into having it as a bit of cheap and cheerfull.

Horrid stuff that could kill you.

They use what looks like shards of fibre glass insulation flaked either into the baggie with the bud to up the weight or added to the plant so the bud grows fatter and has increased surface are thanks to the additives.

These people give us smokers a bad name and I wouldnt want to be gropued into the same category as these scum

It's sad to see 'cutting' as something that has infiltrated the cannabis community. I remember cutting yayo back when I was trying to make enough money to buy my setup, but I've paid my Karma for that ten times over. There is no reason for a peace/respect-loving community to allow our suppliers to sink to such lows. I carry a magnifier when I hook no matter what, just to let them know, "Don't fu*k with me". It's only through our own education about the plant we love that we will free ourselves from this madness.

Anyone able to identify contaminants from unusual ash deposit?

The ganja at first glance looks cured/crystally.
Closer inspection is suspicious, appears to be thick, small sharp outward pointing crystals. Slightly gritty to the bite but not very and not much residue at bottom of bag.

Burns ok however the ash burns to black. Initially the ash is dry yet still structured unlike pure ash, goes black instead of burning to grey/white, after throwing it in my ashtray and examining it later, it appears to have become oily in consistency and sticky. Not ash like atall.

So I was talking to a friend of mine today and he was telling me about what has been coming through the states...

There is a lot of funky, sneaky shat going on lately. We here in Utah have a pretty serious H problem. The stuff is everywhere and the mexican dealers sell what they call 'sand' which is a relatively raw form of H that is grainy and orange in appearance, plus it's only about 20$ (U.S.) for a gram. That twenty bucks can lace a whole Q.P. and make it 'unbelieveable' herb. We haven't really had to deal with metal shavings but coming from someone who has beaten the dragon before; I'd rather metal shavings than H in my bag any day. If what y'all have is 'sand' laced you can tell because not only will the ash not burn to white but it'll taste super floral, like you stuffed a bunch of lilly flowers in your piece. It'll also produce 'couchlock' no matter what you do, plus it'll make you a little nauseated and there will be no munch session like with a good indica.

AVOID THE CRAP, GROW YOUR OWN!!!

its been pretty bad my way for a good few years now. never glass but LOADS of the sandy grit stuff, terrible stuff.

there was other stuff too, but dealers round here are good at making excuses for it. I get a call for a score, i get told 'its got something on it though, but its nice''

but what is this something mate? ''its plant matter to add weight, just shredded stems/leaves/general plant matter''

it wasnt, looked like dough. The sand stuff though was around a very long time, and there was nothing else. people bought alot of it.

well actually im very sick anyway tbh as my blueberry supplier has retired (and left me in shit street) and im now in bad situation as unlike you guys havent got cupboard,loft etc with weed in, least i could stick to 20's of bog weed for now, with hope for the future.

God wtf isnt weed legal coz in uk coz its a fuking joke trying to fing grade a weed is a joke im smoking weed sith seeds in ffs oh btw im not smoking the seeds.

Wow thats a great record you got there...:joint: Munk unlucky man just wait till you've grown your own, when I buy weed these days its only 3 grams if it's good stuff, the only 3.5 deals I've seen of late are contaminated.

Yeh i got just under 2 grams of afghan black the other day, was surprised by its strength as well :stoned-smilie: don't think i have ever really smoked any half decent hash before until that, mind you i never see the stuff around.

This is simple. Know who your man & where his shit comes from. And in Dam, you need only go to the grasshopper & greenhouse effect for smoke, if youre worried about contimination. Had no problems in Dam anywhere. Dont buy off street dealers at 2am in the redlight when the shops are closed and you didnt know and youre pissed but you know, dont buy off the street dealers.

yes i know you are best growing your own does cost a bit but what you would buy in a year ur cost is covered keep on growing

^ Absolutely agree. I've been doing some cost comparisons recently and it appears that some people could literally save thousands of pounds a year, have up to twice as much bud and have better quality with no shit in it.

It's such a shame that dealers are serving up harmful shit to people, because the moment that someone is seriously injured, the spin doctors will likely claim that cannabis is now dangerous!!



Legalise it, regulate it, tax it even, and all this goes away. Instantly the big money stops going to cartels.

in 1m sq you could yield say 80 ounce per year thats like 7g per day of top notch bud that would cost you £10 a gram on the street so your saving thousands yes- if you have a small space like 1m sq and you can grow and you like weed then you should otherwise your just wasting money

For the first time in months I found a dealer, can anyone help me define if this weed is contaminated? I've encountered a lot of contaminated stuff before (sadly far more often than non-contaminated), including sugary contaminants but nothing like this...

The bud is of good quality but it is quite odd. It has a hard coating, looks a little like wax, more noticeable in some spots than others but generally seems to be all the way through it even when you peel a bit of bud open. The coating is scentless, tasteless and malleable under pressure (such as between the teeth) with a texture similar to hash, but it is also fine and crumbly. It has the correct colour for a resinous coating like I have seen before but seems fundamentally different too. It also gets darker when pressed together and goes from a light yellow/green into a more brownish colour.

Smoked it produces a white smoke (not blue or black) and is not harsh on the lungs and tastes just like normal weed. It leaves a near-white ash, no black residue, doesn't bubble or pop. Vaporised is a bit more alarming... you can taste something amongst the goodness (very nice tasting bud) there but it is very faint and I can't put my finger on it. It's very subtle. It's like a mixture between hash and starch.

I figured if there was anything dodgy in it I would feel it as I am highly sensitive to these kinds of things. I can feel the difference between bud with sugar and bud without sugar for example, bud with sugar will generally leave me with a headache and a feeling of nausea or just a general dirty feeling, like back in the days of smoking soappy (yuck, wouldn't touch the stuff now).

This bud had a very clean effect I was surprised because I expected something dodgy out of it. But I know this is never a sure indicator, and I got a little placebo nausea because I was worried (that kind of "I feel sick out of worry" kind of nausea, so I couldn't tell if it was the bud or just me) which passed in about 5 minutes when I relaxed a little. Bear in mind also I'd been out in the hot sun for too long which I normally don't deal with too well, I tend to get a little unwell after too much sun lol!

It's certainly got me stumped. On one hand I feel "yeah it does look contaminated" but on the other hand it's like "is this just a resinous type I've never seen before?". Because it does compress like resin and looks like resin when it's gathered up and pressed together. Just alarmingly has no taste or smell except when vaped, when it doesn't taste or smell like resin all that much (only faintly, which could leave room for error in analysis of the flavour). And far crumblier and less sticky than I expect resin to be.

Havent been on in a while, mainly cuz I havent been growing due to new temporary living circumstances, bought bags a few times and they were a1 but the last 2 bags have been odd as fook, in the bong the weed sparkles and crackles then the ash turns WET, yes WET after being left for a while, I though my head was screwed up or somebody was fucking with me but I actually sat with the bong beside me a while to confirm. This was bought in belfast btw. Anybody know if this is safe to smoke or whats in it? Dont really know the guy (friend of a.......) but I'm told he grows it himself, if hes made me sick I'll fucking kill him.

I've had gritty weed and I once got sold a ten that had been chemically burned that badly that is was the most utterly disgusting shite I had ever smoked. I've heard of glass being used but thank fuck I didnt come across stuff like that. I bought a bud a few years ago that, for some weird reason, tasted of washing up liquid....whether the guy sprayed his plants with it and didnt wash it off I have no idea, but it was good smoke lol

Thats because there all money grabbing fucks that don't give a shit what sort of product they put out on the street. If I grow weed for the market my product would be the best about if it was legal business which at the moment it's not. However I do believe that once the USA have legalized it the UK will follow suite not long after then we can all grow our own at our hearts content :p Lets gather together and over throw the government once and for all :D

Right who wants to start the campaign to over throw the government...? Come on any takers :p

Yep its back unfortuantly here, there seems to be a shortage of weed right now in my area so it was inevitable that i ended up with some CRAP on sunday night, the second time i have seen grit weed in my area this year.

A dude i know picked up an 8th for me on sunday cost 25 quid i had no real say in it because i wasnt there at the time he paid for me so i had to give him the money.

This stuff smelt like tea, looked awful, ash went slightly hard when i hit a bowl and this was after i dried the crap out of it, anyway 3 bowls later, my throat feels slightly sore and it didnt even get me stoned.

Safe to safe it went straight down the toilet

Anyway got myself some clean stuff today, but a few other peeps i know say dipped weed is back its just so fucking annoying when this shit happens.

Anyone else down southwest seen any grit about?
