The trichomes turn darker through oxydisation. It's normal.

It's not soap, but looks like slate hash, which is about as good as bud. Not the best, but at least you aint smoking diesel and plastic.

Soapbar really is a europe thing only - unless the idea is spreading, and concidering this grit weed thing is also in the US, it wouldnt surprise me if soap is too.

Also, the smell of hash is perfumy almost, well, if it's good stuff.
