Your criticism doesn't make any sense. egodeathflux did not indicate that the stuff he's talking about was anything less than ideal in any of those areas.

Ok I researched it and I got it. It's confusing because there are 2 different cultures using the same word. Cats on the west coast referring to old school lingo where we used sess or cess to refer to shwag weed. Then jamaican culture that uses cess to refer to their high grade bud. My guess is the jamaicans had the term coined a long time ago and when it made its way over, people over here saw it, thought it was shit because it looks really bad and stole the term to use to refer to bad weed.


And I have smoked cess once. Aafter seeing pictures of it, Im pretty sure. The dude sold me a bag when I real young of the brown, chunky stuff, looking like brick weed. I thought I got ripped off, but when I smoked it, it actually got me pretty stoned. Real different, speedy sort of high. and the nuggets smoked way longer than bud I'm used to. But it tasted like garbage and looked even worse. I wouldn't say it's great, just different and gets the job done but can't be compared to what I pull out of my basement :shrug:

cess or sess must be a corruption of sensemilla, which is spanish for 'without seeds', so it is just another word for weed in this case.
Also, it seems to be that the jamaican tourists get weed that is grown from greenhouse seed co., barneys' farm, and other euro seed banks. I bet up in the hills would be the only place those sativa landraces survive. I could be wrong on that one, though.

Rocks speak to me, and tell me this:
The Hell Creek formation is a gigantic slab of rocks that covers several western states. It contains an account of the dinosaurs' demise.  In the late Cretaceous period, the first Cannabis species appear, and soon after, all the non-bird dinosaurs disappeared. Obviously, marihuana killed the dinosaurs. That giant meteor that smacked the yucatan peninsula right afterwards, coincidence.

Not a criticism, an opinion. And to me it does make sense. He indicated that "Jamaican sess" is better than any american ganja. At least that was how I read it. His theory was that this was due to a number of reasons such as weather, soil, etc. My point was that those same conditions can be very closely approximated by modern growing techniques. Perhaps even improved upon.

Did he compare it to American weed? I thought he was just saying it was some of the best he had tried in the UK.

You know it. The more seed the better. Lots of tasty stems too.





By far the strongest/best weed I have ever smoked in 20ish years (of smoking, I'm in my 30's) was full of seeds/stems. Jamaican cess, straight of the plane from a yardy associate. I was very dubious when I first tried it about 10 years ago, the guy who imports it was asking top dollar and there was no discount even buying pounds of the stuff.

It is the perfect example of the power of genetics and perfect growing conditions. It has the consistency of Indian charas pretty much, incredibly oily and a dark black colour. I was a very heavy smoker when I first tried it and a couple of what looked like very meager joints had me still feeling baked the next day after about 10 hours sleep.

I would put cess full of seeds and stems up against any hydro/medical stuff any day of the week.

Seeds, stems and a bush weed appearance can be exceedingly deceptive on rare occasions.

25 years ago I thought jamaican brickweed was the best. I bet I would ho-hum about it today.
