all good weed has red or orange hairs

What are the hairs?

[whoreable]

Actually Its a Myth that good bud needs Red Hairs or orange ones, I hear it means the plant was picked prematurely.

Anyways, some of my strains have red and orange hairs, the best buds I have ever had are Light Lime Green with alot of very white trichomes and no hairs at all.

What are the hairs?

hairs are tiny hairs on the bud that are usually colored red or orange like the guy above said. if you can find a close up pic of some good bud, you'll be able to see them. :dance:

Not quite sure if this is what you were asking about or not.. but I know in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Thompson says, "Eat some fucking reds, shoots some smack, smoke some grass."

So, I did some research of my own on Erowid, and found that..

""Reds" was a slang term used for Seconal (sodium quinalbarbitone) which came in red capsules. Seconal was one of the more popular recreational barbiturates when they were more readily available in the 60's and 70's."
