They spray it with glass and sand usually, to test for it: lick your finger, touch the bud, lick your finger again. If it tastes gritty then it's contaminated if it doesn't, then it's fine.

When it comes down to it people are shifting away from silica as everyone is cottoning on to the test you mention, you can even bite the bag and tell.

I live in bucks, can get decent supplies of pills etc, only have a problem with weed. Sucks because this has only become a problem in the last year, don't know if you've found the same ell ess bree.

Theres definitely a massive difference in markets though, asking my dealers where they get their supply would not be clever - even the decent guys will refuse to let on to where it's all from and tbfh I can't blame them.

Hash quality is far worse than weed, there's even a general consensus in england(amongst the ignorant) that hash is NEVER worth smoking. It even goes as far as people saying skunk is stronger than hash. Had hash before that has not got me stoned after smoking over a gram, although in fairness I had worse hash in amsterdam once. There's the odd person that has good links abroad but most of it is horrifically contaminated, there's even stories of low grade hash specifically kept aside for export to england - somewhat doubtful but they do illustrate a point.

Managed to get a Q of pretty nice weed this evening though which really made my day.

Legalise weed and criminalise tampering with it I say!

goddam, yall need to start growing out the homegrown. seriously why would you buy/sell shit that is contaminated? the only way to stop this is to stop buyng this bullshit. otherwise they will keep producing.

we have a thing over here called shwag. its cheap and shitty. no adulterants.

That's nice but as I said there is a massive difference in the market, perhaps I'll grow in my room and watch my dad throw me out on the street...

there is schwag everywhere lol.. but I feel you on the growing yourself thing, I don't because I grow shrooms and that's enough for right now but I have been researching how to grow pot for the past couple years and I know everything there is to know haha. I have an apartment so part of me is just nervous to grow pot because it's much more obvious. I just have a feeling that somebody will need to come into my apartment for some unforeseen reason and I will be fucked because I can't just walk out of my apartment with a pot plant and just dispose of it.

aww man fellas. you have my sympathies

I had no idea it was that rough in the UK.
I would have thought with your proximity to amsterdam you'd be better off.
I don't understand why the dealers didn't simply raise prices rather than ruin their product to increase profits.

I get most of mine right out of the hood from some good folks.
if there's something wrong with what I bought (weak or full of seeds) I can (and do) take it back and bitch about it. my guys would go to their source and pass the complaint down the line.

if I got some bud that was sandy or sprayed with whatever, I'd consider that a straight up insult. my dealers would probably hurt someone who tried to sell them something like that anyway.

sounds like a few plants in the closet is the way to go in the UK, if you're able.

good luck my friends

My parents have known I smoke weed for ages, my mum gave me a lift to a dealer once because it was in a dodgy area lol. My parents don't really approve of drugs but are sensible enough not to flip out over stuff they can't do anything about, growing would be out of the question though.

Found out my best mate is going to carry on dealing which is brilliant as I could quite confidently say his supplier is one of the best about, only way I can get in on it is to buy off my friend as no one else is allowed contact with the supplier.

Having a lot friends quit smoking doesn't help matters either, at least I can enjoy what i've got today.

You know... you don't HAVE to smoke that stuff. You're going on about how gross it is but then you still buy it/bought it. I'd fucking boycott that bullshit, it's obviously not worth it... it hardly sounds like weed!

You say it like I have one dealer and I repeatedly buy it knowing its been sprayed, no surprise that all the people that have come across with the unrealistic attitudes about this are from america and so don't know what it's like. I hear of getting choices over which type of weed you buy, I'm lucky to get a choice between hash and skunk.

If the main suppliers in your area spray their weed everyone is fucked aren't they, only option is to source it from elsewhere but that is easier said than done.

Its not individual dealers, its the importers mainly and I suspect the Vietnamese gangs trying to make up for their losses (the BIG busts that have gone down lately).

Last year there was talk of how major importers were in Dam buying up all the lower quality skunk so they can spray and import.

Grow shops are to blame aswell because the condone the use of brix by selling it over the counter (marketed as adding more weight to your growing bud), so in my eyes there as much to blame.

I think most americans would be surprised to find out how ugly the weed situation is in the UK, I know I am.
every now and then in my area it's obvious that a big chunk of what we call 'downtown brown' shows up and that's pretty much all there is going around for a couple of weeks. it's usually kinda dank and it's been seriously compacted with an ok buzz. most of the time there are several different varieties to choose from.

We bitch a lot about how our government makes it difficult to enjoy some bud, but damn, I guess it's not that bad.

I hope the dealers who're doing that fade out. that's no way to treat your customers and eventually most buyers will find another more honest source leaving those bastards with a bunch of messed up weed no one wants.

Well put substraight, I can only really speculate on what it's like buying weed in america so I think either way it's hard to judge the situation without experiencing it first hand.

it's easy here. well, it is for me anyway.
from your description buying in the UK sounds quite different.
I think there's more going around here than there.

of course I'm sure having a good friend with good connections is just as good there as here. I hope your situation improves. I'll take an extra puff for my abused fellow smokers to the east.

Not to be an asshole but honestly if the only weed i could get was shit sprayed with plastic and chemicals, i wouldn't be smoking weed. I know its easier said then done but if all you "wankers" weren't letting the dealers know you don't give a shit by buying the dope anyway, maybe things would be different.

If the weed situation is as crappy as you folks over the pond make it out to be then you gotta start growing more and importing less. Don't forget the US marijuana scene wasn't always like this, we used to have similar problems until people started wising up and growing their own. In the sixties and seventies a good portion of the weed smoked here was imported, usually of shitty quality. But as of late, i would say a better portion of it is grown right here in the US.

From personal experience i have only bought weed that came from another country maybe 4-5 times. The other thousands of purchases consisted of trees grown in the land of the brave and free.

The problem we actually face in the UK right now is that there is a massive drive to bust all of the growhouses, areas literally run out of weed and the situation for all the stoners in the area becomes dire.

What then comes about is lots of strange weed, the old soapbar becomes more prevalent as do strains with not very impressive effects, weed that I suppose is the same as what some people call shwag and weed thats been sprayed.

Keep finding it hard not to start ranting about the politics of all of this, suffice to say: How come weed is being cracked down on so much when pretty much any chemical you can imagine is readily available, especially drugs such as ketamine where you would have thought the distribution would be properly enforced :crazy:
