Why would anyone ever grow schwag?

[Blitzed]

Okay, I got thinking today, but first a lil back story..

So a buddy of mine came over today, and had some schwag. Well, I wasnt going to complaing, I'm out of spending money till monday, and I dont wanna break into the savings to buy some bud, so I said what the hell. We rolled up 3 blunts, and began smoking. I barely got buzzed, but again I didnt spend money on it, so Im not bitching. But then I looked down at my table and counted 21 seeds. I mean honestly people.. 21 seeds, in about a 5 gram bag. If someone is growing pot, why not just put a lil bit of effort into it? This just made me think, is this pot being grown by some 13 year old kid, trying to grow using ceiling lights, and dirt he got from his back yard. It makes me sad.. :(

[Matt the Funk]

No dude. It's grown in mexico in huge fields where they take little to no care of it...

[Blitzed]

Thats just as bad, I mean you could just take a lil bit of time and improve it so much, and make twice the money. Or maybe that would just destroy the market, and good bud would be real cheap...

I got it, lets go infest Mexico, with cannabis devouring bugs :stoned:

infesting mexico with cannabis devouring bugs is the single worst idea ive ever heard

[ganjzilla]

yaeh alot of good bud grows in mexico too...thats where my cousin was getting some for awhile and it was sensi...what ur talkin about is mexi brick weed where they have fields of weed the size of corn fields in nebraska...they dont take care of it because thats so much bud that itd take 2-3 days atleast just to determine sex on them

[ganjzilla]

but i mean its good every once in awhile like u said when ur broke, ive bought it before an o for 65 bucks is a good deal when u got like 4-5 ppl and everyone only has like 10-15 to throw

Yeah I guess that makes sense, but it still makes me sad..

ever heard of sarcasim?

[cbdave]

Mexican brick shit weed costs like 25 an o and is shit shit shit

[make it legal]

Yeah Mexico actually has a lot of really really good shit.

[Jadian21]

Yeah it's not that the pot is just so horrible and they grow it anyway, you can actually grow some decent plants out of the seeds you get from that crap.

Just way too many plants to take care of properly.

[BlazinKhan]

No dude. It's grown in mexico in huge fields where they take little to no care of it...

+1 bingo

[tha_green_ghost]

Yeah, Mexico growers don't bullshit with little plants in a pot...if they're gonna smuggle into a country where it is illegal, they're gonna do it big so that it's worth the risk. If you're from the south like me (Texas) the schwag here actually isn't that bad (other than the seeds) because it's really fresh and cheap. But by the time it gets north, it's probably turned a little brown and crispy. Besides if all you smoke is the expensive weed...the regular weed ain't gonna do shit. Thats why I smoke reggie and every once in a while spend extra on hydro and what not.....

[Blitzed]

I dont smoke the best bud there is, I dont have the money. But I take pride in the bud I smoke, and like a lil bit of quality. All I used to smoke was schwag till I actually got a good job. But sometimes the quality is just terrible.

[Jadian21]

When I was broke enough to be forced to smoke the brick, I'd roll up a blunt with the nicest flavored wrap I could buy, and then smoke that through a little bong I had. The combination of the water and the wrap made it more bearable not only taste wise, but on the lungs as well.

[make it legal]

I've never smoked schwagg in my life. I don't think there's much of it up here in New England.

[ganjzilla]

yeah it prolly doesnt make it to new england because thats on the other side of the country

[Blitzed]

Schwag is not that terrible as some people on here make it out to be, but then again not everyone can get "Super White Grandaddy Purple-dro" like they smoke. Sometimes, it comes to a point, where ya gotta smoke some schwag. We've all done it Im sure, Luckily, I dont have to 95% of the time.

[MadSativa]

Ill be in mexico city in a week if I remember I ll snap some picks of the good stuff their.

[make it legal]

I'd rather not smoke than have to smoke 3 blunts to get buzzed.:stoned:

[cannabis campbell]

Theres no such strain as schwag or anything its just when you dont know how to grow or you dont take care of the plant properly of mostly when lots of plants are grown in mass and its hard to give all of them the right attention and stuff plus they dont really care because they're not going to smoke it they're still going to get the money for it.

[Ganj]

Ahh...Mexican brick-weed...I love it. What's that Mexi-ganja? You want me to roll you up into an double Optimo? I'd love to! You're so good to me.

[BlazinKhan]

hell i got some mexican swag right here
pics are a little blurry cause my carmera sux

o yeah forgot to add these pics were taken after i deseeded and desteamed the sack,this is the better swag,usually its longer and stringier

[poiuyt]

Shwagg is non-existent over here. I love living here.

[ganjzilla]

yeah here where i live now you only get weed grown here or PA or stuff brought from ny or cali

[BabyFacedAbortion]

where do you live, ganj? That's exactly what it's like here.

[nightlight]

yeah here where i live now you only get weed grown here or PA or stuff brought from ny or cali

same in connecticut, and it is all retardedly overpriced.

[Matt the Funk]

Shwagg is non-existent over here. I love living here. Word.

[not_the_kitty]

In my town I would guess less than 20% of the smokers smoke good stuff and if your dealing it is a lot harder to move weed thats $60/8th than it is to move schwag. From a dealing and profit standpoint schwag makes sense but I still wouldnt smoke it unless I was dry for a month and had a tolerance level of a 10 year old.

[Safari Leader]

i have smoked shwagg once, and no from a dealers point of view it makes even less sense.. its wayyy easier to move the good stuff (at least here in the burbs)

ive even smoked thirties ONLY once and it was gay.. because it gave me a headrush and a headache and that was a whole gram to myself so it wasnt worht it at all

[make it legal]

Thirties?

[Safari Leader]

"dirty thirties" is what we call mid grade. i guess here we only get pretty good bud? haha

ive never bought it but im guessing its called that bc its $30 an 8th...i think...?

[Mex]

I see what you mean 21 seeds in a 5 gram bag is retarded, but that's only when the plants are badly cared for or not cared for at all, the nutes are bad, growing conditions are bad, and basically little to no effort is put into growing and seeding ect.

I know thats why I said I felt like this bud was grown by a 12 year old kid, in his parents house, with dirt from outside, and a 60watt desk lamp for light.

Yeah right:mad:
It is all I can find.:(

I had to laugh at this one myself. Glad that you have never found yourself needing to resort to the ole' brick weed but bielieve me, there is a LOT of it around. Been there, done that, bought the T-sack.

But, as we say with a sigh... " If it gets you high it will get you bye "

Peace

[OahuLocal]

Why not go into mexico and infest them with good seeds?

[r0k]

Acupulco gold is some of the best herb ever, and its grown in Mexico.

[pixel]

if i had the ability to grow like 20 plants at once id make 2 schwag 3 beasters and 15 different top of the line strains

i like schwagg in a big blunt it kinda has this different high to it if you smoke enough, it's a drunk feeling high and it actually can hit you pretty hard when youre with a lot of people that generate laughs when they are together. so i like it for that and beasters makes me tired as hell so i would save that for night bong sesh... then my 15 would do everything else :D

[Bob the Awesome]

We get Mexican dirt here too, but I just hunt down who's selling locally-grown mids. Same price, better quality.

[The Kidd]

Down here in the land of south texas we pay the coyotes 200 a kilo to bring it back from mex some times its so fresh (un dried) that it molds in the middle like hay bailed to green. The stuff we get is not to bad tho bout two grams of seeds for every ounce. The only draw back is if you smoke a whole bunch you are gonna go to sleep whether you want to or not

[orangeman]

Mexican weed isn't what's the problem. Mexican weed is fine, it can be very, very good. It's just that commercial mexican growers really aren't concerned about sensimillia, they keep that for them selves lol. They have money to make. Plant about 1,000+ seeds and just let the field grow and make money from that shit, plus seeds make bud weigh more so why not? And also that isn't what degrades bud..actually seeded bud is great too, just not as abundant in trichomes or buds as sensi. It's the harvest methods. dried in the sun, roughness with buds, the exposure of drying bud in the hot sun which is bad because light, air and heat is exactly what you wouldn't want drying bud to be exposed to. Poor curing methods, cutting the plants early to get the next grow going (money) which of course degrades weed, also when they import they brick the weed up and crap. If it hasn't shed all it's moisture content by the time it reaches the U.S. it's probably developed a nasty hay smell from within and probably moldy bud in the brick and damaged weed from moisture. It's a lot of crap, thats why people who buy schwagg really should stop wasting their money. Seriously if no one bought that shit they'd start doing a better job, can't help the importation methods but I can guarantee before it gets here they would have done a better job at taking care of the crop.

[jonlem88]

Im in Tn and ive never touched or seen anything below mids

[SourDeez]

I live in NY. The burbs like 45 min from the city. Pretty much rich kid town =\ mad annoying rich kids. But an upside to that is that the dealers around here sell some pretty dank shit. Lowest ive ever seen aroudn me is high end middies. I feel bad for you guys that get the mexican brick =(.

[ganjzilla]

and babyfaced i live in baltimore maryland hbu

[MadSativa]

Here their is so much swag pounds can sell for $200 that is why people buy shwag cause you can take it to the east coast and sell a pound fore twicw that. two peole just got busted yesterday on the buss. They had close to 100 lbs. of shwag in their suit cases, and the day before 1900 pounds were found on their way to the east coast. their are so much swag that they just throw it out their to see if it gets past the boarder. They dont care they drive semies filled with it not hiding or anything just full to the brim 5 tons of shwag is not un heard of when their being busted and they are being busted on an hourly basis. This is why the mex cartels are getting into the high grade growing bussiness on this side of the boarder, cause they know their is a market for it shwag or grade its still herb and people will buy it, esecialy when its $5000 a lbs. compared to $200 an lbs

[Paulkishi]

I have never bought schwag, however I have bought mids and as long as a smoke enough of the mids I can get stoned, plus I can get it for really cheap. I have standards though, I will never smoke schwag.

Great post. One of the best I've read yet.:thumbsup:

[FloydFan]

I live in the upper midwest and the majority of the weed around here is mexican shwag. The stuff that I get is actually not that bad though. There are usually only about 10-15 seeds in an ounce. By the time it gets up here and has gone through a couple people, it costs $120-$160 an ounce unless you buy it by the pound and can get a better deal. From a dealing perspective, the weed money in my town comes from shwag. The dealers can sell shwag for $25 an eighth and double their money. Unless you drive to a bigger city, you won't be able to get a good price on an ounce or QP of chronic.

[evan5502]

One of my puerto rican friends at work gave me 10 grams of shwag for free one day, no complaints here.

[evan5502]

Sorry he was dominican
