WARNING

[mattmao]

lip is spot on get yourself a good dealer,but somebody asked earlier what about amsterdam,well i posted a thred about 6 weeks ago on the same subject.most of this weed is coming from holland,its all over the uk and germany,the reason for this spraying is that the bud has been shaken removing most of the crystal then it is sprayed to make it look authentic.the problem i have is why dont people know what they are smoking,what else would you be prerpared to put into a rizla and smoke,educate yourself get to know your dealer,if you buy something and your not happy take it back,if all else fails learn to grow all the information you need is here!!dont tolorate this shit and it will have to go away,the more that is bought then more will be on the streets.wise up all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is a great thread because we all need to somewhat rely on eachovers information about what is going on in cultivation nowadays, because we aren't exactly going to get info this detailed from our Media/Government.

Keep up the good work

THIS IS A ONE-OFF POST- PLEASE CIRCULATE. VERY IMPORTANT.

I have done a basic analysis on the contaminants of 3 batches of bud from SW, SE and London- I have also seen similar samples from many, many sources, starting at the end of february 2006.

1: Under microscope at 50x magnification, contaminants appear as very small (50-120 um) beads, with regular circular shape and small pores/ single holes present.

2: Beads do not dissolve in non polar solvents (pet ether) or polar solvents (ethanol, acetone).

3: Beads are insoluble in conc NaOH solution, conc H2SO4.

4: Melting point is above 400C, but cannot perform TG, DTG analysis at the moment so cannot specify any transition temperatures or accurate melting points.

5: The beads have a significant sodium and silicon content, suggesting that the comments previously about silicates are correct.

6: Smoking this has resulted in mouth ulcers and sore throats/ chesty coughs which never occur when smoking normally due to the good health and only occasional cannabis use of the subject.

7: Reliable sources say that this contaminant is industrial etchant spray used for glass frosting, It is a high pressure aerosol of propellant, lubricant and silicate abrasives. This accounts for the high permeation levels displayed in all 3 samples, with particulates presents inside even 'tight' buds all the way into the stems. This also may account for the non plany oils present in the bud which have been previously described as a 'glue'

8: The same sources (and other independent sources) have corroborated the same story of the origin of this contamination. The main suppliers are from 2 major cities to the north of wales and are gangs from these two cities. Most people will guess where I mean as the post 'drought' supplies are mainly concentrated around these cities.

9: Obviously a further qualitative analysis is needed and I may be able to perform MS, IR, NMR and thermal methods on the samples, in particular the oil 'glue' and the gritty particulates.

10: DO NOT SMOKE THIS, IT MAY POSE A SIGNIFICANT HEALTH HAZARD AND WE MAY SEE A DRUG TAKING COMMUNITY CRISIS ON A LARGER SCALE THAN THE MPTP CRISIS OF THE EARLY 80'S.

BUYERS: PLEASE RECONSIDER BEFORE BUYING ANY MORE OF THIS, AND CONSIDER THE DAMAGE YOU MAY BE CAUSING TO YOUR CUSTOMERS.

PLEASE RE-READ POINT 7. IT IS THE MOST RELIABLE INDICATOR OF THE MOST OBSERVED CONTAMINANTS.
OTHER CONTAMINANTS SUCH AS NATURAL SAND ARE PROBABLY THE RESULT OF SUPPLIERS COPYING THE ETCHANT METHOD WITH WHATEVER THEY HAVE TO HAND.

its good that someone has took the time to warn us all nice one 4 that, you don't take lung diseases lightly i knew a great guy 49 years old die of oesophagus's cancer that got on to the lungs, what a way to go you know that silage smell on motorways when your driving that was the smell coming from his mouth he couldn't swallow anything he had a tube via his nose, he constantly was spitting a dark brown liquid it was a true nasty time for those who loved and adored to watch, this wasn't caused through the workforce, they said it was a lifestyle what a price to pay so when some one takes the time to warn you don't wait till the government puts warnings out do you think they will for a minority such as us not a chance, yer you do what you want but if you think about it at least we know about it know as we never before nice one for that

hey all, been informing to hear about this madness with weed getting mixed with things. Had a smoke of this stuff last week and would be interested to know if it looks dodgy?

There was a small residue after breaking up the weed for rolling.

im pretty sure thats the grity shit (glass grass) if you havnt consumed it yet lick your finger (or the bud) and touch the bud than lick it again, now bite about with your teeth and if you feel sand in betwean the teeth go to whoever you just got that off and kick their ass than fucking tell em to get some proper weed and to stop fucking about with that nnasty shit....

thats my couple of pennies...

[mc-blaze21]

thats really bad man why do they have to tamper with our weed man it's fucking jokes and im sick of it. we have some of this black mould going round where i live at the minute well its mixed with normal white mould but still its there. i aint seen some of this glass grass as of yet but no doubt i'll be seeing it very soon. more people should be aware of the dangers that other people are putting us in. ive copied and posted bits of this thread in to an email and sent it to my local paper so hopefully it will make press and the people of milton keynes and the surrounding areas will get to no the truth about all this peace all stay safe and happy tokeing!

[mc-blaze21]

right its sent to all of my local papers and ive sent it to the big news papers as well i just hope it gets the word spred coz not every one has the net or even bothers to go on there any more. so them people are going to be unaware of what is going on out there with our weed man. well thats my bit done if there is any thing and i mean any thing i can do for you boys in england then dont hessatate to ask im all ways on here but if im not my email is [email protected] just give me a shout peace to all!!
