CONTAMINATED SKUNK - not-appeciating thread.

To tell you the truth...
I am the fussiest person in the world when it comes to bud quality-
It seems that i will complain about any green bud these days so i guess its not worth it any more
All i know is that the skunk were smoking now aint nowhere near the same as i was smoking about 3-4 years ago. I don't remember the last time i had bud that if it was in multiple baggys and possibly in a bag or jacket would still peng out the room.
Everything is contaminated-Ber coarsness/harshness-
fibre glass, sand , silicone...
It seems punk aint really got that old skool skunky flavour any more just tastes like general harshness lol
Looks like i'll have to stick to purple, cess, just weed or move on to crackrox?.who knows, porbablly not even worth it unless your in holland i suppose. (Or stop smoking peroid)
I know im not the only one out there who feels the same way.
Ive lost count of the amount of contam tests me and my mates have conshrewed to test for contamination.
To the USA crew online here, i don't suppose you lot have the same problem? Is this just exclusivly a uk/europe ting?
Is this shit gwanning in canada?
Have heads on here bought dud-bud in dam before?
Sorry to moan but i had to get that off my chest coz my chest is sore.

Ever since the drought a year or so ago the quality has gone down massively round here. You can get good stuff but its always £20 for 3g which is a rip off. It might be more of a UK problem as we are the biggest consumers of it in Europe, not too sure though...

hmm well hash lol this is even worse luke lol
I would advice to go nowhere near soapbar. See hash out in dam- u don't really need to light it to crumble it-but it obviously aids it. Here you gota put the flame to it for agesss for it to budge. Guaranteed plastic/vinyl/dog pooh.
As for harshness however, i've been smoking long enough to know that, yeah your're inhaling smoke so obviously its gonna hit your throat. That being said...
The harshness should be when you inhale and not exhale
Try taking a toke and as you blow it out notice how the coarseness attacks the back of your throat.
It's not as bad as it was this summer with the bait crunchy grit, obviously, but its still there.

Thats a decent deal for Manchester mate, first time i got done, 20 for 2.4 then again untill i asked around a little more. Still only about 3.1.
I havent had any problems with grit weed though.

I think its funny how back in the day if someone try give me 3g for a henry this wouldn't have ran. but now this is a proper standard.
For people gladly purchasing a 2.8 eighth - dont mug yourself off.cummon.
Easier said then done though.

Bad news mate. It was 3.5g standard here a couple of years back. After the drought the price of an oz went up and the quality went down. I'd rather pay more for quality though tbh.

There was a thing on the radio a couple of weeks back saying that most UK hydro was being produced by Vietnamese (I think?) gangs? Obviously their basically interested in maximising profits, more so than your friendly neighbourhood enterprising stoner.

Yeah 20 for 3g, what's up with that? That's got to be above the rate of inflation, or inhalation.

mate i don't smoke that soapbar shit, don't worry, i always check it out before i buy, this stuff comes from the dam, and like you say about good hash there's no need to light it first with this one, it just crumbles, there is no way in hell i would sit about smoking bits of old tire in soapbar, fuck no
recently i think it has got a bit better than in summer, that was horrendous stuff, everyone time i exhaled it would be raaaaaaaw against your throat, but don't seem to get that recently

Heard some folk saying that sand-glass type shit has been getting put in green up here to make the weight more.
Apart from some green I got nearly a year ago, which didn't burn right at all (i put it down to contamination), all the green I get seems to be fine.
But yeah, seems to be happening even up here in Glasgow.
Drugs in general are just contaminated to fuck though these days, fucking sucks.
