The most heavy strain i have smoke was in Cali Colombia, the name was cripi, bad flavor but a half joint day was good for all the day (when normally I smoke 5).

Probably still OG Kush.

Need to get my hands on some of those new 40% THC strains.
If you listen to the Breeder's Syndicate or Potcast podcasts they mention quite often how strains that are marketed as over 30% thc are likely bullshit because testing labs are corrupt and will give out inflated results to please their customers lol. Also so the corrupt dispensaries can sell their slop as 30% thc so it will sell quicker. Shittiest industry in the world.

I wonder how much THC is in the Zamal x Jamaica buds that I grew last summer, that get me unconfortably high for 4 hours with half a joint, and make going to the supermarket an Indiana Jones movie. Probably under 15%. As the saying goes - what matters is not the size of the boat, it's the motion of the ocean.

The kind of bud that gets zero likes on instagram as well :biggrin:

Edit - by the way, comercial moroccan hash that gets into Europe has been made with dutch strains for almost 20 years. Hardly a 2.5% thc landrace, more likely critical mass which is the most sold weed in Spain. Or nowadays spanish bulk fem seeds derived from skunks and cookies.

Yeah I dunno. Good return when extracting for sure but..

I have tried some high THC extracts and they were good but kinda boring.

The absolute best hashes I have smoked have been Moroccans made from the traditional landrace which is a 2.5% - 5% THC strain.

THC content isn't everything. But these high THC strains are still some kind of wonders of the world and interesting.
I know what you mean- we used to get some lovely hash here in the uk, early 90s tasty and potent, the black hashes were my favourite but some of the pressed Moroccans (slate they called it) were very nice
Then the importers got greedy and mixed it with all kinds of crap.

maybe it's 30% including THCA?
I say that, because today you can buy portable tests of thc levels ,I've never tried one, but I looked at an Englishman tested on his campus, the weed of the students it was often around 25%, rarely below 20%. 30% seems huge but when you see some "y griega" phenotypes at 27%, it doesn't seem impossible.


Thc test(sorry if it's forbidden share commercial link, i don't know where showing it, if it's not possible tell me )

I don't know how the tests work but just look at the guy on the thumbnail lmao not the kind of guy I would trust for anything really :ROFLMAO: it's always clowns with blue hair piercings and a backwards hat telling you what's up and what's best in this cannabis world. To be honest I would give him a pickaxe and send him to the mines see if he could be useful that way at least.

Je ne sais pas comment fonctionnent les tests, mais regardez simplement le gars sur la vignette, ce n'est pas le genre de gars à qui je ferais confiance pour quoi que ce soit, vraiment :ROFLMAO: , ce sont toujours des clowns avec des piercings aux cheveux bleus et un chapeau à l'envers qui vous disent ce qui se passe et ce qui est le mieux dans ce monde cannabique. Pour être honnête, je lui donnerais une pioche et l'enverrais dans les mines pour voir s'il pouvait au moins être utile de cette façon.
as they say in France, the clothes don't make the monk, he's a young man and the judgment on his appearance will mean nothing. (About ten years ago, I had a crest in apple green dreadlocks ) but I get what you mean, he seems more interested in saw than weed. for the tests, the portable devices exist (a little expensive) I do not think that they are false.

On dit ça en Espagne aussi, et moi j'avais les cheveux si longs que je devais faire attention quand je m'asseyais sur la toilette de ne pas les laisser pendre dans le bol :unsure: Je plaisantais évidemment mais c'est la réalite que ce monde n'est pas controllé par des gens sérieux mais par des clowns et des poseurs qui ne sont pas vraiment interessés par la plante mais par la"culture" merdique du cannabis qu'on doit soufrir depuis le début de la globalisation.

Edit - this cannabis world is controlled by hypemen and posers, not by true fans of the plant. Consumers ask the wrong questions (THC) because people who control the industry push this bullshit onto us. Quality has nothing to do with quantity. Numbers are not an adequate measure of quality nor potency. The combination of all the substances the plant produces are what gets you high. THC is just a small part of it.

It's a known phenomenon. I read this article about it and inflated results are rife but they do claim some are also legit.

They seem to have really upped the ante in recent years with irrigation systems and "blocks" dedicated to individual strains and in general making a good "modern" product but 10-20 years ago this was rare, and just five years ago it didn't seem so hard to find some traditional stuff, even nowadays it can pop up now and then. Check the imported has thread it goes back to 2006.

what you just said is unfortunately true and sad, it's unfortunately the game of globalization and consumerism, being disappears in appearance, appearances become more important than truth, quantity before quality ect ect. ..

Sorry but unless you are buying your hash in Morocco you are not smoking anything tradtional moroccan. I used to sell moroccan hash for over 10 years and I have seen every quality come and go but what was always common was how much they lie about everything. This is just part of the culture and as a businessman over there you are supposed to try to get one over your customer. They sell little eggs called "pakis" because they know people like pakistani hash, but they make it by pressing the same fruity blonde hash they sell you for half the price. Moroccan hash isn't supposed to taste or smell fruity. It used to taste woody, sweet and spicy but not overly pleasant, definitely not like fruit candy. Now it doesn't matter which quality you find, it's always the same fruity tastes that come from skunky strains. Moroccan growers don't grow for tradition but only for profit and they quickly abandoned their traditional strains when they were shown by the mafia how much better the european commercial seeds perform in terms of production. The same way that is happening in most producing countries. People have to feed their families.

C'est un phénomène connu. J'ai lu cet article à ce sujet et les résultats gonflés sont nombreux, mais ils prétendent que certains sont également légitimes.



Ils semblent avoir vraiment fait monter les enchères ces dernières années avec des systèmes d'irrigation et des "blocs" dédiés aux souches individuelles et en général faisant un bon produit "moderne", mais il y a 10-20 ans, c'était rare, et il y a seulement cinq ans, c'était le cas. Il semble si difficile de trouver des trucs traditionnels, même de nos jours, ils peuvent apparaître de temps en temps. Vérifiez que l'importation a un fil, il remonte à 2006.
the beldia has become rare, it was rarely more than 5%, in the 80's 90's the pakistani called aya, was introduced. today moroccans grow beldia mainly for local demand, as they don't like modern khardala made with hybrids, that is for the Europeans. although you can still find aya and beldia in Europe, but it's getting harder and harder.

@goingrey I wonder if the traditional moroccan hash you smoked also contained pieces of candle, rubber from car tires, supermarket plastic bags, pieces of wood or other interesting surprises that used to come in the 250g plates they used to send to Europe in the 90s/00s :biggrin: THere were many different qualities of moroccan but the times you could score some Lebanese, Afghan or Nepalese that's when you knew it was gonna be a special few weeks.

My strongest by far we called Vertigo, and for a very good reason 😂.
Everyone who smoked it, even crazy tolerance people, would get the whities and tap out. So many people, myself included, overdid it and ended up puking from it. My brother in law straight up passed out mid sentence after 3 hits.
One minute it was a really nice up and happy high, very social and a little visual distortion to it, the next hit was that one too many and suddenly you were spiraling out. Spiraling hard and turning really gross colors.

It was a cross of a Mango Haze x KC Brains Mango sativa leaning pheno that a friend did. I had one pretty good female from that cross that I hit with pollen from some seeds I brought back from St Lucia that was the most visually trippy stuff I’ve ever smoked, every damn seed of that was a male unfortunately. The end result was a heavy producing, metallic and floral smelling monster of a plant. Great yielding and super strong ant 14 weeks. After I lost her I burned through probably 80 seeds from that mix and never found another like her.

I mentioned this in a different thread already I think but the strongest weed I ever had was sensi Jack Herer grown by my friend in the early 00s from a clone that was known around my city. It used to get me so high that it was unpleasant, made me paranoid and on edge, just not for me really but myfriends loved it.

Nirvana's strains they copied from sensi had the reputation of being very similar to the originals, and ideal for phenohunts because they were so cheap.

I know those are all legendary source countries and surely have made the best hashes known to history but the few times I've had some what I got wasn't so great, nowhere near the better Moroccans. The worst hash I have ever had was some super expensive Nepalese, it was like inhaling car exhaust fumes. The Afghans seem to be quite capable of contaminating their product as well. Hopefully some day I will come across some good hash from those countries. Well I think I did have some pretty nice Lebanese a couple of times.

The Moroccan "soap bar" hash with the rubber and whatnot was kind of frowned upon in my snobhead circles, so I didn't really come across these "prizes". But on the other hand the bullet shaped pieces I sometimes got sure grossed me out wondering whose ass they came out of.

It's possible that a lot was genetically "contaminated' with Pakistani or even Skunk genetics. But also with heavy influence from Moroccan with certain genotypes doing well in the environment, and with all the pollen in the air and seeds made by it being used the next year. And the hash was made from a mix of different plants with varied chemotypes, even CBD plants. That's something I like to look for as one marker of authenticity, having a balanced THC/CBD ratio - not THC dominant like modern hash would be.

Man those "ass eggs" as we call them here (huevos culeros) were unbelievably disgusting to deal with but were often excellent quality. It's crazy to me now to think how normal it was for us to open those eggs and sometimes ending up with a brown nail :ninja::poop: Absolutely foul smelling even after washing them multiple times but it was worth it at least that's what we had to do to smoke at the time lol good times.

Those were between 6-10g. I also remember fondly the "vaginal eggs" that were a lot bigger for obvious reasons :sick: around 25g

Strongest is some black hash me and my friends got in the late 80´s. Clearly sativa genetics and probably from Nepal/Katmandu. Strong psychedelic effects that totally freaked me out with a heartpounding paranoia. It was not a nice experience.

Most memorable is NL in Adam in the 90´s and some fantastic mellow moroccan I smoked on a beach in the south of France summer of 92. Oh yeah, and an equally fantastic Moroccan I smoked with a police officer in the middle of the nigh, on a roof Tangier. That was summer of 93. All in all, I have to say that high quality Moroccan before dutch genetics was heaven.
