...I take a milky hit, hold it, exhale and my chest constricts so much that I can barely breathe afterward and the next hit is a bitch to take. That's when I KNOW I'm going to get shitted. I used to know I was going to get ripped when I'd cough my brains out after a hit but ever since I started smoking cigarettes that just hasn't happened. I could really go for a butt right now...
I can usually just tell by the smell. I had this bag of weed on me and I held it in my hand for like one second and put it in my pocket and my hand smelt like weed like an hour later still. Also, if I feel really light on my feet and I have the urge to laugh a lot.
i dont know why people say that good bud is when u cough. I think the best bud is when its smooth and sweet and gets u ripped. I dont like harsh weed, i usually only smoke purple but anyways, what i look for in weed is... if there are alot of crystals, if it smells sweet or skunky, and if its not leafy or crumbly...
with the bud its easy to tell by eye you just look for is vivid dense nugs with lots of kief and a non browny colour also when i have a baggy in my pocket and im on the bus and EVERYONE else can smell the fire in my pocket. when smoking i look for my lungs to contract after the first hit and get a really skunky sweet taste at the back of my throat and the almost instant heavy eyelids.
I look for dark greens and bright colours of hairs (reds, yellows, purples). Then If crystals are practically falling off it, I KNOW its going to be good! As for smoking. Well when I smoked the best stuff I've ever had, I took the first hit looking at something on the ground then when I looked up POW everything like twitched, and seemed to quickly snap into place. And my friend i was with at the time summed it up nicely with "Oh wow". So basically anything that your feel instantly. Although if I cough I seem to feel it more, not sure why though. Is the cough reaction to a good hit, or cause it?
^ when you cough with smoke still in your lungs you inhale it more because when you cough you take big inhales.
