where i'm from apparently weed has been laced

with sand and glass. not nice.

has anyone else heard of it been laced? :/ or is it just around here?

 

never heard of that happening around here but i have heard alot of people throughout the uk talking about

 

with sand? ... and glass?


wouldn't that be...well...noticeable?

 

^ yea...

if it was actually laced with sand or glass, any person with any sort of intelect would be able to tell..

fingerbusting it would definatly reveal at least the sand, if not also the glass

and if the amounts of either are too small to discover fingerbusting then i doubt it would have any adverse effect on your health

or are u saying it's laced with sand/glass to add weight?

u do know that chewing tobacco has sand and or glass in it right?

 

chewing tobacco has tons of fiberglass. Helps to tear up your gums to get that goodnees in the bloodstream quicker. This applies to your cans of dip. If you chew leaf tobacco (Red man, beechnut, etc) I don't think those do, but they don't solve your copenhagen cravings.

 

I belive that Long cut uses fibreglass, while short cuts use sand, or so ive heard

 

that's possible DJ, I really don't know. All I know is I love chewing tobacco and that's its the hardest habit to kick (for me at least).

 

that's like when you drop your bud at the beach

 

technicaly thats not lacing..lacing is adding another drug or chemical to make crappy weed seem better by getting u higher..what your talking about is just adding dirt to add weight..
ive seen that in the weed from the hood theyd add pebbles and lil chunks of wood or whatever
but i only find that from shady crackheads and shit...

 

When i was like 15 some dude sold me a bag that clearly was sprinkled with salt. He claimed they were large THC crystals. Whatever. Your a moron. But unfortunatly your the only one with weed right now so give it to me.

Was picking salt off my buds for the next two days . . .

 

Wanna have sex?

 

i got the highest ive ever gotten last night it was insane. ive been smoking for like a year now and ive never had real good weed, always beasters mids and schwag. well i bought from a new guy who sold me some amazing stuff which i smoked a lot of. i was literally frozen in my computer chair, unable to move even if i tried, and my whole world became flat. depth was no longer existant, it was crazy. i almost started crying at how beautiful the music was and how awesome the colors of my room were. o yea, im a little high and not really sure what thread im in sorry.

 

^^^ haha!

 

yeah adding sand or glass to bud is true its happened were I live too. Its done to add weight but until you get the bud home and look at it you won't notice because its only really small amounts. The favourite one though seems to be spraying the plants with sugar water to add weight although this isnt too bad because it just gives the bud a sweet taste!

 

Heat converts sugar to carbon. I don't think smoking weed that has been adulterated with sugar will make it taste sweeter unless you eat it raw.

I knew a dealer back in the 60's who would take 1/2 lb. of cheap brick weed, break it up, put it on a tarp and pour a 12 oz. coke on it. When the liquid eveoporated, the weed weighed more because of the remaining sugar (several oz. I think).

If I bought weed adulterated with sand and/or glass, I'd find a new source.

Another great reason to grow your own.

 

That's the fucked up thing though rangerdanger. In this country there's a short drought for about a month around the same time every year so a lot of the large scale suppliers stockpile so when the drought begins they can push the same weed on at a higher price. This year however, there was a crazy police crackdown on large scale grow ops all around the country, literally hundreds of people getting nabbed for growing and lots of large grows discovered in a very short time period (a couple of weeks).

As a result of this there was a large shortage of weed north to south, everywhere in this country for a while, remember we're hundreds of times smaller than the states (see the thread 'Drought in UK' in the hashish section). All the weed about was from relatively small time growers, most of it didn't have a very nice cure, some was even still a bit wet as everyone was trying to make as much £££ as possible but you could still find if you knew the right people. Funnily enough at this time there was kilos of imported pakistani hash doing the rounds which was very tasty but good weed at a good price was hard to find.

Some capitalising bastards decided to make some money off this and I was hearing reports from up north (I'm on the south coast) that there was weed on the market covered in a fine sand like substance. I didn't think much of it until a few weeks later I bought an 1/8 off this dude. The weed smelt nice, looked nice, tasted nice, got you stoned nice but when you put a little bud in your mouth to chew or whatever it felt gritty, noticed this when crumbling with fingers as well. Suddenly there was loads of people everywhere in the country talking about this so I don't think loads of growers started doing this simultaneously, it was obviously one commercial cannabis operation run by some money hungry criminal lowlife scum who are pumping out this vile shit to people purely for profit. These scumbags seemed to have a pretty massive share of the market though to have so many people nationwide talking about the same batch of weed..

If you see the sandy weed, don't smoke it! If you don't buy it they'll be less inclined to grow more of this shit.

It shouldn't only be about money.

Yup, and another great reason for over the counter decriminalization. Take the business out of the hands of scumbag criminals and make sure no-one has to deal with tainted marijuana.

 

Trust me, when smoking it you taste a small sweetness about it. I have some now! You ever put sugar in a pan? It caramelises and this is what happens in the spliff. Actually it tastes okay and the bud is pucka so I really don't mind it!

 

I used to be on a big marijuana forum that shut down its initials were OG im not sure if im aloud to say the name here, but it was a great site, anyways this issue was brought up, i guess its somthing you can buy that you add to the buds when its growing, its a glass like substance that looks like the bud has a lot of crystals. It is only a commercial bud thing, i dont know how big of a problem it is but it is really frowned upon. just another reason to grow your own.

 

yeah,i was pissed when OG got shut down

 

Hahahah pucka. I havent been given weed with glass and sand in it and i usually get it from chavs who would most likely be the culprits.
Throughout the drought thingy i still got bud, mostly it was nice but i did get some shit shit ammounts, like a bud taht was no bigger than a gobstopper sort of thing for a tenner, and it was like 1g, and SOAKING wet.
Hmm, i guess i just gotta hope i dont get glassy weed xD
