has the drought ended?

[weedmaster]

there has been some nice weed around lately, but still not loads about in the bournemouth area,and some wankers are still trying to flog that grit weed.whats the situation in your neck of the woods?

[2mass]

Drought? What drought? Has there been a drought?:rasta:

[xxxhazexxx]

im in kent not that far thers loads of bud no drought all of it is top noch smoking super kush at the minute :thumbsup:

[iamafridge]

In belfast there seems to be the odd bit of grit going about, good weed is expensive, lots of bad soap bar and some pollen. Prices are higher than usual compared to before the drought :/

[savagepossum]

i think mainly that the drought is over but ever since these grow raids started the weed market has changed

[glaeken]

Not sure if there is a drought on in Kent or not. I was growing for a while and have been unable to do it for a bit now. One of the disadvantages of growing your own is you tend to loose all your contacts if you ever have to stop for any reason.

Still try and get myself a trip to Dam soon :rasta:

[Nocturnal Stoner]

there was a definite drought last summer it was shit I had to buy shitty ten's with about 1g in them, in autumn and winter there was extremely good shit about, and also the grit weed, which only came across me twice. I think we should be prepared for another one this year. Growers of England Unite lol. Serious keep it low profile and only smoke it up with close friends. I doubt its around anymore, but I haven't bought in 2 weeks and I wont be till mid june.

[redandcracked1888]

the price of soapbar has doubled since last summer and theres been shit pollen going about.this is in central scotland but theres good bud going about sum ak48 and sum lovely skunk

[Nozza1979]

It's a bit better, but not much better round my way, west London/Surrey. Still paying over the odds for green. Got some pretty shitty soapbar at the mo, but i'm on a promise for some mental green next week......but i've heard that before!:rolleyes:

[gildoiski]

still a drought in Aberdeen on the green front, plenty od soapy but i don't smoke it

Had to go to Glasgow a couple of weeks back to get some, good smoke,paid top dollar for it but it was a half oz light...i'm told he will defo make up the weight next time but as the guy before said "I've heard that before"

[mad_nat]

i think the grit weed here in manc is deffo over (because i aint and i know a few others aint had any of it) not sure about the drought tho luckly tho my dealer always had some on him so i was never short to begin with.

[Nozza1979]

I've not come across any of this 'gritty weed'. I spoken to a few mates and they haven't either. Must be a northern thing.

[Nocturnal Stoner]

well when I came across the grit weed it was sand weed first time, we dusted off most of the sand and bonged it all, the second time abbatior dream told me some of my bud looked like it had been grit weed, and I take his word for it, so yeah only twice ever out of the 50 times I smoked when it started. The drought is pretty much over, its just that one or 2 BIG! growers may have been busted last summer and thus the smaller dealers were dry.

[mc-blaze21]

ok i have a hypeatheticle question here. if some one was to get so pissed off about this grit weed situation and make a plan to jack the little pricks dat are growing it would that person be shunned for tryin to do summin about it? its an honest question so no shittie remarks aight thanx

[glaeken]

How do you know its just one lot doing it? It might have started with one group doing this but you will probably find others have copied them now.

I am still not really sure about this grit weed and the idea people are spraying grit on their crops to bulk them up. That makes no sense to me as it just seems like it would screw up the plants and you would get plenty more growth if you just left them alone and grew it properly anyway.

I reckon this grit is getting on the weed due to way its being moved/smuggled. If the weed were being packed inside bags of sand while the weed was still not cured properly you would end up with grit stuck all over it by the time the weed dried out. This makes more sense to me than messing around with your grow.

[Nozza1979]

Heard on the news today, the Police boasting how they are busting 3 farms a day. So hold onto your hats cause it could get a bit dry in the near future. I suppose they got targets to meet and a cannabis farm is an easier target than a crack factory.

[meloncoly]

glaeken the "grit" is added afterwards to replicate thc crystals and add some weight, not during the grow.

[glaeken]

Fair enough I guess that's possible. Not seen any of this grit weed in the flesh so just going on how others are describing it.

It would be interesting to see how much weight it adds. If it's sand type grit I would expect it to add a lot so 1/8th's of this shit should look small.

It's just so wrong to do this it's just difficult to believe someone would do it on purpose.

[weedmaster]

glaeken the "grit" is added afterwards to replicate thc crystals and add some weight, not during the grow.

NOT TO SURE ABOUT THAT I'VE ONLY SEEN IT A COUPLE OF TIMES BUT WHEN I EXAMINED IT SEEMS LIKE IT WAS ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE BUD NOT JUST A COATING.

[bluntblaze]

the price of soapbar has doubled since last summer and theres been shit pollen going about.this is in central scotland but theres good bud going about sum ak48 and sum lovely skunki havent really had too much problems getting weed and the prices havent changed, £5 1/8 (soap) and £15 1/8 (weed) ive either been able to get one or the other (soap or bud), but what i have noticed is i can hardly ever get more than an oz of weed .... and hash i can get bars now and again but there going for £300 - £400 fucking pricey:hippy:

[chewbacker]

hello people iv bin up and down the country its a drought every where yes there is pockets of it about you will find more bud than solid as its due to anti terror alerts thats makeing it hard to get in so solid will sufer seeing how the government has increased the anti terror then i would say that its going to get worse i can still get but i know alot who cant but saying that the solid will find another way of getting to us all but proberbly be smelly from how they get it in there will be lots of home gronw for sure about this year but thats only as good as the grower who grew it we should all just grow are own then we dont get shity stuff.

[bluerasta]

it`s true they are putting stuff on the weed to bulk it up,
theres plenty here in london ,and plenty off people smoking it,
as for why would they bother , if they can make more money out off it they will, look how they make soap bar i don`t no why anyone would smoke that
shit that is full off sand ,plastic and whatever else they decide to chuck in
i understand that this is the only available option for some people.
untill this country takes the responsibilty to let the criminal element run the drugs trade, this is how things are going to be.
my advice is get growing
jah-rastafari

[notransfer]

lol...no grit...no drought

[bluerasta]

lol...no grit...no drought
there is mate seen it with my own eyes
if anyone thinks they have some heres a simple way off telling,
take a small bud and dunk in some water if its contaminated you will see
the residue left behind,
youre intitled to your opinion mate but your wrong
drugscope has even given out a public warning
it`s around and it`s nasty (truth)
take it eaaaasy:jointsmile:

[notransfer]

will do in the future...but i did the lick test back when i was getting it...maybe thats not enough?

i didnt have any grinding grit in my teeth when i tested the crystals

[bluerasta]

no worries mate take it eassssy:rasta:

[amberler]

There is a definate drought in the newcastle area, i cant find any, has any one got any pointers, as to where to look.

Try take aways and private hire if you get really desperate, they usually know someone.

[stonerzize]

Thanks I will give that a go, being 6' 3'' and looking like a copper is not a big help lol

[logie_boy]

its so hard to get smoke in aberdeen withh grass bust recently, last year was mental! it needs to pick up,
9 bars are up to 400 notes now around here

[soltero600]

Still struggling in this area - SE of Brum:wtf:

[amberler]

It's has been easier to score in the last few months than anytime I can remember. Quality and amounts have increased also.

[Souproller]

good here 20 for 1/8 35or40 1/4 any more varies
on friday was worst been for a while had to wait for 2 hours dealers not ringing back and saying will be here at about 9 (means 10) though could have just gone to town if had enough petrol:]

anyone here from Stirling im moving there next year?

[Tom Swierzbinski]

Easy to score a sack over here, but with the recent bust in Northampton theres probably gonna be another drought... fuck.

[chill_out]

Hi just been offered some green,now i've looked at this and it looks like someone's sprayed suger on it.Ok before anyone says it's glass,sand extra i've had that and it's defo not that.Now when you break the buds up it's sticky,harsh on the throat when using a bong done a lick finger test and it's sweet.Anyone else come acorss this green yet??

[glaeken]

Not seen that though as my supply sources these day stack up to nil that would not be a surprise ;)

One thing if you want to test it is resin is not water soluable so if you want to sacrafice some bud to water the crystals if really resin will not disolve. If you leave a sample to soak and then find the crystals have disappeared then that would indicate someone is putting sugar or some other crap on it.

Of course if they are using something that is also non soluable you just have some wet weed and have proved nothing :D

If it gets you stoned though who cares.

It would not surprise me after the grit weed stories if other dealers have not got the idea to bulk their weed up with anything else they can think of that might look like resin.

[Nocturnal Stoner]

yeah same here man, I just got linked a new dealer, an old friend of mine, anyways the bust up north is a huge blow to the stocks this spring to summer, hopefully we should get some geniuses to import some happy herb this summer.

KEEP THE GROW OP'S DISCREET!

got given a 1/16 to sample the other week coated in sugar water,sad really cos it was nice weed but like u said it definately wasn't the grit weed, just sugar water added to increases the weight, not going to harm you but still a rip off,BARSTADS:(

well i'm smoking it and it gets you stoned,as you say suger water won't harm you

[hasanyoneseenmypipe1]

when teh fuck is the british and irish government hell even the rest of europe going to take a leaf out of hollands book, get the stuff regulated and get ppl licensed to sell the stuff, fuck the dutch have better schools, hospitals and public services. Our gov's are fucking idiots, make alchohol illegal and weed legal, makes sense dosent it.

Calling for the banning of alcohol is little extreme, although I would like to see tighter controls on its sale and production:P

[hasanyoneseenmypipe1]

well maybe not banning it, I admit that would be a bit harsh. maybe what I am trying to say is that it does a lot more harm and it causes more problems in society today than weed will ever do.

It will never be legal or decriminalised in this country. Just look at that recent study that put weed at 11th most harmful substance which was less harmful than alcohol and tabbaco by quite a way. The government immediatley said they have no intention of paying any attention to the study.

The issue in the UK is the media have far too much power. Any party going soft on drugs will get crucified by the Daily Mail and the like which will see their vote share plumet and that is all our political parties really care about.

It's not about doing what's right with these people its about doing what secures them the most share of the vote and unfortunatly middle England is still the biggest chunk of the vote. Middle England being your Daily Mail type readers who believe that drug dealers are constantly stalking school play grounds trying to get kids started on smack.

[Jarras Finest Stoner]

There is a definate drought in the newcastle area, i cant find any, has any one got any pointers, as to where to look.

Aye give me yr email address and ill have a talk with you mate

[weedmaster]

i thought it was getting back to normal but just had to wait 2 days to get hold of some good weed,and not seen any import for the last couple of weeks.

[gildoiski]

i've managed to get 2 oz in 2 weeks from 2 suppliers for the first time in about a year, still paying 40 a score tho

[Aeonboom]

there's been fackall here in torquay, well from what we've seen, we find it way too hard to find any amount of it. though a couple of months ago we did manage to find an oz of pollen so that lasted us a while, but now we cant find any and we ran out the other night, my girlfriends got M.S. and smokes it to help her relax and help her never-ending list of pains and aches, i smoke it cos i think too much, and it actually calms it down.

as far as i'm concerned it's facking dry here, anyone wanna prove me wrong =)

[the_emerald_sea]

hey guys, not dry at all around here, sum nice stuff, been smoking alot of cheese and g13 the last week or 2,,, top quality stuff too. N im in the South Wales Valleys, bout 40 mins form cardiff.

[tokinsplinter]

so im american and not savvy to your terms, what are bricks, sand, pollen, etc. the british terms you guys are using, just curious! and is hard to go over to amsterdam and bring back a lil for yourself?

[amberler]

No need the Dutch buy half their weed from the UK

[dragonbud]

as i said the solid is awful and the green is very expsensive a nightmare at the mo.:mad::stoned:

[no hoper]

i know this thread is a bit old but around my way(s.lon) its been seriously dry for about 3 weeks now.

only thing around is soap and i aint smoked that shit for about 3 years now and dont want to go back frankly

hows it at where your at?

[weedmaster]

on the south coast it's not been that good ever since i started this thread, friends of mine are still strugling to get a constant supply of good weed and noone wants to sell by the oz just 1/8 and 1/4. lucky for me i have a good friend who grows AK47 so i allways got some, but he only sorts out 4 close friends, i've heard that the shitty grit weed is still around in some places, why don't people refuse to buy it i wouldn't touch that shit i would rather go without, hope you all manage to get sorted.

[no hoper]

the reason the grit is still around is the there is a severe shortage of decent herb.

wheres the vietnamese when you need them.ive also noticed a big downturn in the product that they supply.i know they dont grow the best herb in the world but id rather buy an oz from them than take my chances buying hit and miss 20 bags anyday.buying 20 bags is nearly always a miss anyway,i reckon i decent bag of greenz to every 15 scwag bags.

[Land of Drought]

Its True too say Buying Street, ie 20bags Are always shit...
Ifs theres no Dealer you're fk'd...Be glad ur not in Ireland if you dont know someone who grows youre stuck with soap and Seeded inport from Africa or eastern europe its all
ropey at best....Trading at insane prices about 160 too 300 euro depending on if its African or Grit or perhaps some nice Import but thats 240 too 300 euro an Oz....

Only in the Last two weeks Customs over her found a tonne of Herb from Africa in
a load off marble then two grow ops of some 300 hundred plants according to the Police
so youll never know but that tonne and the decent sized grows will have an effect over here. Again theres tonnes coming in but most is Truly Shit...Unless you can Grow then u stand a half chance of being ok for half the year at least lol...

Peace D

[weedmaster]

grow your own thats the only answer.

[Gmaninnirvana]

I believe the grit to be a growing medium.Maybe it accidently on purpose gets stuck to the harvest in some way and at some time during transit.Correct me if you know better.
The only test is to try a smoke.Normally it is quite evident upon the first inhalation.Especially if you happen to be chewing gum as i do quite often.The gum will soon pick the grain from your teeth/mouth.You will know it's there!
Don't buy it is the easy solution.There are some known health hazards of smoking this shit.One of them,maybe lesser than most but nonetheless still not nice is mouth ulcers/blisters!
Tell your man if they want good dollar you want good shit in return!
I have'nt been near it since first establishing it was in circulation.To my knowledge in my area from about early 06 but to my surprise,a friend 10mins away said that's all he's been getting it for the last 2 mths!!

[thedapper1]

not so much grit weed kicking about here just damp shit an pukka weed

[J-dubb206]

Fire as always in Washington

[dalore]

not so much grit weed kicking about here just damp shit an pukka weed

Amen. Did it all get caught in the flood? It's fucken horrible. Seriously contemplating growing our own since our usual dealer is 'having a break for a while' and our back up dude is selling us this dank flood weed. Bummer :(.

[the_camel]

Supply is shit round here, :( (Cheshire)
The only weed now days seems to be coming from Manchester/Moss Side.
:(

Getting 3.0g bags for £20 :O Its a fucking joke.
I started to grow my own around the same time grit weed was appearing, i thought why not grow my own and know exactly what has happened to the plant. Even if its not as stronger or tasty, Its free fucking weed! :D And as long as it gets me stoned im sorted :D

Peace

[no hoper]

if you grow weed yourself then its gonna be alot better than anything your buying on road because the people growing to sell on road dont give a shit and the cut early and sell wet and i even bought a bag that had mold inside the buds.

took it back and told the man and all he said was what you talking about your the only person that complained.but as i have grown my own before numerous times i knew what he was selling me,unfourtunatlyfor him.

now when your doing it yourself youll care for that plant/plants a whole lot

[rastaman79]

bits n bobs in portsmouth.RETURN ALL GRIT WEED!!!!!! SILICOSIS OF THE LUNGS!!!!!!!! I think the drought is coming round again our bags have gone from 9bags to just two or three a week. shiters boys!!???

[thedapper1]

DALORE no the weeds damp because the tool doesnt cure it long enough for extra weight. apart from that just good bud here just got ma weekend pick up :jointsmile:

[outlawimmortal]

North London isn't dry, but the prices have sky rocketed. you're talking £40 ($80) for an eighth of average weed. it doesn't seem to be cut. but hey who knows what's in it these days ;)

i've given up smoking until i can either find a grower/grow my own.

if i can find a grower then i can hopefully trade some of the shrooms i have growing for some weed. weight for weight :) here's hoping. especially when i can grow a kilo of dry shrooms a month WITH EASE. :):):):):):)

[thedapper1]

got a sample of thai stick an hour ago bout to roll a fatty :jointsmile:

[thedapper1]

outlaw shrooms are in nearly every field up my end :jointsmile:

[Silent Wolf]

It's only been recently here in Norfolk in which i've been able to get my hands on some realy nice weed as it's been dry as f**k! My dealer got me an 8th of sensi star which gave me a realy good stone. Even after a few hours it still lingered in the back of my mind. I also got me some realy nice black hash which came straight from Nepal. It tastes great, and i love mixing it with my coffee in the morning.:)

[fatman7]

Its not that theres nothing around, its there buts it not top notch. Theres alot of of grit going about but saying that alot of ppl are wising up about it. Glucose is another thing ive noticed.

Yesterday i got told it will cost me 180 for a oz of untapped stuff :wtf: mad!!
See i don't know what to do, i luv smoking so much and i don't want to stop but its becoming a health hazard, with all the different stuff in the bud and i am getting sick of checking the sh** every time i buy to see if its tapped or not :mad:.
Its becoming like all other drugs UNRELIABLE.

[denots]

After a couple of years of there being a constant supply here in fife weve now run outa herb.No soap,no pollen no nothing.And after today my own stash will be gone,im gutted.Suppose thats the problem if you only use the one guy for the weed and it runs out,i dont know anybody else so am fooked till he gets himself sorted out,and i cant grow either....
