seen much of this for just over a year now. Compressed cannabis with lots of seeds. changes from time to time.

Any body know exactaly where it is coming from?
or ahave any other views on it?

i suspect it is marijuana from albania, don't smoke that stuff, its garbage stuff.

i know lots of people who buy that gear off the boys on moore street in dublin. as far as i know that stuff comes from west africa. the nigerian lads always have that. its shit smoke but i'd say better than a lot of solid around. look on the bright side you get plenty of seeds to start your own grow. some of my mates have actually grown some of the seeds. it would probably be not so bad if you actually take the time to remove the males. I can imagine vast acres of that shit being grown down in the jungle. nobody bothering to cut out the males. all of it goes to seed and before it loses all its thc the lads cut it down, dry it in an oven, compress it, ship it over to us and sell it to us for €200 an ounce!!! bless the free market.

Any info on what they managed to get from the grow (i'm growing my first ever crop from them seeds right now) are they Sativa or Indica? did they get a good harvest of bud? i like a mystery as much as the next guy. but i would love to find out more about whatever strain of weed i'm pouring my heart and soul into here.

that sounds more like African weed to me not Albanian.. its always in Ireland for some reason..I know for a fact It can be bought for as little as €30 per kilo in countries like Zambia, Zimbabwe and most of the more southern African countries. Then its sold here in Ireland for anything from €100-€200 an OZ... 1 tonne of the stuff was confiscated in Dublin port yesterday! authorities put the value at €13million! sometimes the weed isnt too bad if it has been cleaned of all seeds and sticks.. they grow mostly sativia strains down there, Im sure if you have a good setup and you know a little bit there's no reason why you cant get fairly decent weed when you harvest.

what high ?

[Herbalistic]

Hey guys/gals!!!

I see you have a little discussion here regarding African cannabis

I have nice thread called: African strains @ the strains & hybrids forum.. Heres a link into that thread if anyone is interested, lot´s of valuable info of African strains & pics too:
https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.p...frican+strains

So maybe we see some of you there

I haven't smoked any of that stuff for years, but I really liked the high. A really nice tingly sativa high with no paranoia. Kind of makes your vision go all sparkly.

Of course it's full of seed, stem, is as dry as a witch's tit and you need to pack the joint a little bit... but I actually prefer the high of that African brickweed to a lot of the Dutch strains I've grown or bought in Dublin

The guy told me it's thai and they got it from holland but it didn't look like something I have smoked before. I tried to search the net for photos of Thai buds and they are much alike.I've tried to grow from these seeds. They're not stable.Mutants. One of the 10 that I saved looked like that (photo below) in 4th flowering week so I had no patence and cut the bitch down to make some space for my cute ones

posted this already in another thread but thought it might be aproppriate to post it here, my experience with weed so far in IRL,
my smokin records in my earlier life consists primarily of decent dutchgrown as I used to live on the continent.

I met an african dude in town from which I later bought some grass,
very compressed brickweed, bout 5g for €40, it had a seeds and stems, I'm convinced most people would think it looks like shit it's brown, not very appealing (no strong smell like skunk, but has a nice subtle smell to it)...

Surprised me by it's potency, 0.4g of this got me higher, than over 0.5g of a GOOD sensimellia JACK HERER from a south of the NL coffeeshop,
fairly disorientating, very powerful, dunno how to describe this, it also has the feeling like u've had little blackout moments when high, even though they are not complete blackouts, as you still remember somewhat what just happened, doesn't seem to have much tolerance to it atm, smokin this seems each time as good or better than my first times gettin very high,
a tired feeling is felt after a certain point in this high, it can knock you out and put you to sleep as fast as any frosty indica, though the high is not the same.
According to that guy I bought it from, it is supposed to come from west africa, no idea where though could be anywhere from Senegal down to the Ivory coast.

Didn't know you could buy anything decent from this land which is rumoured to sell shit: soapbar, grit... btw have any of you seen the article describing the weed situation in ireland? soft secrets 2008 issue 1, shocked me to read it...
I'd recommend any1 who can't grow atm, like me, to go for some good african grass, it's a defo better bang for your buck, rather than trying to find some green frosty dutch skunk, which is probably mostly grit weed anyway, have come across what appeared to be grit one time on the continent... never again, never tried soapbar in my life,
the tough of it disgusts me too much to ever try it, IMO don't see the point in trying to get high at all on some truly inferior product, if the high isn't good.
