is unflushed weed safe to smoke?

[Baalzebul]

Hey guys, can anyone help me out here? A few times I picked up some hydro (completely seedless) that sparkles and pops when you burn it. Smoking it, I noticed I started having sharp headaches and getting blurry vision in one eye several hours later.

Someone told me that this is due to the weed not being flushed before it is harvested, something all hydro growers have to do. Supposedly the fertilizers they use in the soil should be replaced with nothing but water for a week or so before harvesting, or the nutrients from the fertilizer will be in the bud, causing these side effects when smoked

Does anyone know how to clean bud like this, or if it is safe to smoke it? I can deal with the headaches if I know that my brain isn't being permanently damaged by this shit. Or should I just throw away the whole oz and buy from someone else?

tell em to give you your money back that grower doesn’t know what he is doing

could it be laced?

what i would do is dry it out for about 3 days,(even though its prob already dry), just to try and get out all the chlorphil and other stuff, then i would cure it for about 2-3 weeks, and see if it still harsh to smoke, if it isint better.....i guess just live with it and sample smoke before you buy, good luck

Unless you have a close relation with the guy selling or growing the weed, you can never be sure if it's good to smoke.

Weed can always be laced and you don't know unless you grow it yourself. =(

Anyways, try to find out, and best of luck!

Cheers

If the weed isn't flushed, you might get harsh and gross smoke from it, but it should NOT crackle and pop. I have seen this kind of weed before, it is most surely laced or sprayed with something. It is possible that it was foliar fed, and never washed or something, but most likely it has something sprayed on it to kill brain cells.....Throw it out. Also keep in mind your dealer might just be a meat head and not know the difference. These kinds of things usually come from the grower who grew shitty weed but wanted people to get high.
