Basically, I hear people say "chronic" or "chron", but I don't know quite what quality they're talking about. I mean, I know there's mexican brick and then middies and high mids ($5/gram Ohio prices) Then there's KB, stuff that's green, maybe a seed or two in a quarter at most, and has a lot of noticeable crystals. And then there's your name brands, really awesome stuff that I can't ever find :( So where do you place chronic in this bud-heirarchy? Thanks in advance. Rating: 5

I love BC, we just have pot here. If it sucks then it's called shitty weed. But for the most part unless you're buying off the crackhead downtown you are going to get good pot. Chronic here is used as a synonym for pot, or as an adjective synonymous to dank or potent.

Really the whole mids, highs, whatever-else-there-is thing seem strange to me. Is it an American thing or do we canucks use those as well?
