ya HASH is very potent, especially it matters who made it...also weed can be very potent and what you are talking about is soapbar, as you know that is shit, its shitty hash some nice weed is better than soapbar BUT you can buy hash that is very very potent, more than weed by far,

one little hit of good hash is the equivilent(sp?) of hitting a bowl of good weed(i think)
