New contaminated cannabis?!

[deathtosoapbar]

Well...im sad to say i think there is a new stealth form of contaminated weed now being sold on the streets and thought id warn anyone who may buy it by accident....basically i recently moved house which stopped my grow temporarily so normally if i find myself waiting on a harvest i tend to get some thai bush/jamaican type stuff its not the best but it tends to be uncontaminated, so i travelled to meet the guy , turns out his contact had been robbed of his stash of thai, but as i had already arrived he said he could ring a "dial a dealer", straight away i had a fear that theres a chance of grit weed so i asked him to just get me a 20 to see...so firstly it was obviously ripped off 1.2g...but appeared not to be contaminated as in doesnt crunch when bitten doesnt sting the tongue and even has some smell to it unlike most old grit weed, so i smoked a few and slowly started with stiffness in the neck and irritability...so i decided to put a small sample in a bowl with luke warm water to see if it had been sprayed and after immersing the bits of bud in the water within 5 minutes the water it was in had gone brown/reddish and looked like there is microscopic bits of white powder floating in this brown/red water, is this the spray on etching glass stuff ive heard about? or another fuckin contaminant..its far too risky buying any commercial bud in england these days...it seems to be becoming harder and harder to detect. So since the thai import aint available im just gonna do without and to anyone else whos waiting on their harvest , be careful what your buying. Im convinced its some type of neurotoxin now being used as a contaminant.

Mate i have been in the same situation for a while and would rather go without than take chances buying "street" bud , unless you know a grower or friend of grower in the area just don't even bother there is so much garbage around it is a joke .

It's a shame cos 10 + year ago you could just blindly buy bud and not even have to worry about this shit, alright you might not of got the best quality in the world but at least it was clean .
It's sad that things have got worse when really with so much more people growing nowadays it should of got better .

These mofo's should be hung IMO.

Saw something similar last month , looked reasonable and no obvious brix or glassing to the eye , looked wrong under a 10x loupe , stained damp paper brown with an odd smell.

The lad chucked it , would have liked to check it out further under a microcope and see if a UV note detector light reveals it , works well for glassing.

Picks out paint/metal particles from beadblast waste very well , a common and dangerous contaminent round here.

Dependant on carrier used , a simple pH paper test strip could also reveal it.

Yep i remember the good ol days when soapbar was starting to become known as shite and there was like you said bud that may not have been the best but was ALWAYS CLEAN, and yeah the guys should be hung who are selling this toxic crap but not until theyve been made to smoke at least 5 ounce of the contaminated weed they are selling

yep i think we may have seen the same type of contaminant, it really is a lot more stealth these days..but unlike actual glass bead grit weed this new contaminant cant add weight so its just being done out of sheer nastiness, its like the bastards are angry that we found out about the grit weed so now they are making it even more deadly

Hate to intrude on this but I was just lurking about and I read some of this. Especially with concern over seeming to have similiar symptoms from a sack over here in the states. Makes my skin crawl thinking about it. Stay safe guys.

Thats bad to hear, the UK has always been the centre of the worlds most contaminated cannabis IMO, but now the US aswell?! Sad to think someone over there probably got the idea to contaminate from reading what goes on here in the UK. Sickening.

 

[STUPPA]

Some of the stuff i have seen is not gritted or brixed but it has been rubbed or tapped to remove the resin glands and then they have sprayed it with this shite to try and cover up the fact that there is zero resin on it , god knows what they are spraying it with but it is'nt nice and does'nt burn . You can hold a lighter to the bud for ages and it wont burn WTF.

Thanks for the heads up.. please add info. to the 'Danger! Glass Weed' thread in world cannabis sub-forum

https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=42251

The red stuff in the water,, could be residual coco fibre. Likewise perlite and rockwool dust are often found in commercial grade flowers that have been mistreated / thrown on the floor at harvesting.

Iron f***ing filings are also being used !!!

Keep your eye's open UK crew!

ill add the info to your thread doc...i accidentally smoked a fair amount of the 2006 glass weed as at the time it wasnt something i was looking for as contaminated bud didnt seem to exist before then, obviously my lungs are badly affected and i fear that in 10 years time there is going to be a lot of people dying young because of the contaminants they accidentally smoked , myself included, if i had known back then what was going to happen i would have grown three times as much weed to make sure i never would of bought on the street, id rather of been busted for a massive grow and have safe weed than die in 10 years time from silicosis/emphysema the docs wont do lung tests on me as obviously as soon as u say u smoked contaminated cannabis they seem to treat you like a junkie and dont want to help...theyll be forced to realise though when people start droppin like flies young.

 

[Scrogerman]

Yeah we get it regularly over my end too-'Midlander', i think when the young louts that buy it learn how to detect it, they wont buy it off the gangs producing it, or less anyway, there getting clever at hiding shit in the buds, its been getting like that for a while. If i ever catch anybody doing it, god help them, everyone should have the same attitude, trouble is they aint.
I know people that buy the stuff willingly because its cheaper, honestly,its nuts!
edit- btw, i never smoke the crap, id rather go without!

Dustweed, glassweed, metalweed, it goes on & on! 'they should be hung up by the nuts!

thank god for home sweet home grown,quality and quantity and plus the fact some little shit **** is trying to convince you what they have is the best and take it or leave kind of attitude,im glad i do my own and most on the market and even in amsterdam doesnt come near to what im acheaving

 

[DocLeaf]

Yes. It is disgraceful that things have come this far in such a short space of time! Contaminated cannabis probably isnt a new thing,, but it seems that since 2000 it has become pandemic in the UK.

You are totally correct that the dangerous side-effects of contamination probably wont materialise for another few years yet,, and that younger smokers were/are most at risk to contamination due to the nature of prohibition youthfulness, and un-education in the UK.

Like any form of piracy ,, the black-market economy that supports this crime against humanity,, will continue to develop new methods of contaminating cannabis flowers for commercial gain,,, until ppl stop buying it.

Peace and sticky green flowers

Thanks all we've linked this matter back into our sig.

 

[Scrogerman]

Doc some great points your bringing up there brotha. Seriously all us/you older Heads out there need to speak up, tell the yout its dangerious, i know i preach to them about it & they need me to be doing this, or who else is gonna shed light on this disgrace. Speak up UK, Tell the young uns not to buy it for their sake & ours. I cant believe people let this happen over here in the UK its just Mad! boycott all those studip oriental gangs for a start(twas they whom started all this shite as far as i know, "why wer'nt out government giving you enough in free handout giro's-u fkers!). Just cause its cheap it aint good business & its killin people,crazy marketing tactics too. everyone needs to make a stand!

If i had just bought a key for a k(on the cheap lol) & knew it was contammed id take it straight back to where it came from, if everyone did it, there would be no contammed Bud in the UK.end Of-it wouldnt sell, there would be no market for it!¬ Thats the problem its cheap! But so is a plastic bag!

Just for the record i dont buy key's either, im just a casual user/toker/persy grower. believe what you will!

your right brother,but most people out there dont know thier tit from thier elbow when it comes to bud,& every one should boycott these scum & force the commercial growers to up the quality of thier product or more of us have to do our own diy and stop putting money in thier pockets & giving cannabis a worse name than it already has

 

[V1AAA]

although i dont buy it, i know of people getting it 50 kg at a time and they can still sell out in a day

damn shame the shit that goes on.

thats why we have to fight for the cause

legalize.

overgrow the world. the more homegrowers the more chance we have that it wont get imported with shit on it.

i also hear that the brits have gone to dam and found these wannnabe gansters and have paid serious cash to find out how to double the weight of your bud. they claim its non traceable. to the unexperienced eye this is the case, and in todays day, even i have trouble spotting it.

greed is the mother of all f'up's.

 

[lost in a sea]

not new to my way that man,, the stiff neck thing as well,, i always figured was rabbit tranqs to attempt to make the bud have more effect..

its so dry around my way for funk,, kiddies are off school and the pigs are goin wild for the dealers..

i was talking to a dealer a while back whose in a proper cartel,, most now rightfully doin time for selling coke,,anyway he always sorted me out,, but he said to me once that the kids would turn away non sprayed gear because alot haven't seen non sprayed bud before..

very scary,, kids demanding sprayed weed !!

and like you say when people start dying early from smoking too much of this shit,, then cannabis will get the blame,, "modern superskunk kills again" !!!!! fucking media whores

i think if we got enough seeds out to people maybe the government would have to allow people to grow freely,, but i think if we legalize without enough people already in the know,, then the govt will just sell the rights and licenses to pharmaceutical and agri-corporations because there would be no initial public backlash of any kind..

few million seeds,, 100,000 envelopes and stamps,, 5000 man hours growing,packaging and researching suitable doners to send them to ( homes with old teenagers/early 20's maybe, no idea how that would work) ,,

and i reckon you/i could change the world,,

 

[smokeymacpot]

safest thing is dont buy and go without untill someone has some decent weed in. because the uk goverment are UTTER ARSEHOLES, they put the weed in criminal/wankers hands and you end up with shit weed that is no good for you.
if everyone was allowed to grow just a single plant at any one time, we would all be far better off.


@lost in a sea. would be nice huh, to walk down a street and see a big bush in everyones garden. eventually it would come down to lack of police resources and money, everyone then refuse to goto court. they would give in as it would be a revolt.
but look at us with the petrol prices... will never happen.
