I usually get crappy regular homegrown stuff here, though you do get the occasional good strain come through, like AK or white widow or something. There's also the horrible contaminated hash, tastes like mint and smells like sawdust!

Going to Amsterdam on the 20th july, can't wait!
No, Blue Buddha, not sure what it's crossed with - look it up. I think the seed bank is called BCBud Depot. It's 70 percent indica and 30 percent sativa, just the way I like it. Short bushy stature, with lengthy internodes. It's suppose to yield 5 ounces per plant, given the proper conditions.

Curing, what can I say, one must properly dry their herb first, that's really where all the taste comes from - kinda like a nice wine. If it dries too fast, then the chlorophyll is stuck in the outer cells, thus leaving you with the hay smell and taste. You need to cure your herb for the final drying process and at this point, you can usually ad an orange peel in the mason jar. But you must be careful, too much moisture will leave you with moldy bud.

Dried properly (hanging, preferably over wax paper or foil to collect any resin for hashballs) doesnt change the potency much at all.
Yes it does, if you don't have the proper conditions going, such as heat and humidity, you can damage your bud. The hotter it gets, the more the trichomes/THC are damaged. Also, you can't let your harvest receive any light. Break any of those rules and you got yourself some shitty herb.

It was just a guess, I thought that blue Buddha was pretty like to be a cross between "blueberry" and "laughing Buddha" maybe not though.

Thanks for expanding and further explaining my very point of dried properly

Maybe so, I'm not sure. I stumbled across it the other night. If I wasn't at work I'd hit up the seedbank, but I got a link if you want it.

Smoking keeps me:
1) From throwing my laptop out of the window.
2) Alive while the girlfriend is talking crap down the phone
3) From quitting my job
4) Drunk lol, I hate drinking without smoking :P

Remove the advertising links in your sig ASAP. A senior member should know better.

I need to go out today.. 24 hours smoking the contents of my bin are enough for me, though they seem to become "better" nicotine and tar value the deeper I dig. That last one has made my eyes water. looolz

I take it you roll your own??? lol

I've been trying that for now. A friend let me borrow his loading machine. I'm still trying to find a decent menthol tobacco, though. So far, American Spirit Menthol seems to be the best choice.

Yeah, that's crazy. A carton around here is maybe ~$45.

Don't for sure know where you are, but her in South Louisana packs are over $4+tax and cartons of same brand are $27+tax = $13 saving+tax. you're getting ripped. Now if you are in Amsterdam, we're talking different smokes. And you probably are ripped! :) LMFAO.

Cartons have 10 packs, I don't understand your math lmao.

A carton of cigarettes is $27 (10packs) A single pack is 4$ X10 packs to equal a carton =$40! Still with me? $40-27=$13 saving-taxes have been omitted. This is probably 5th grade math here in US. Cartons are and have always been cheaper anywhere I have been. I no longer smoke but I look at the prices cause my wife continues.

Ah. Well you're going on the math that a pack is $4. Which, if you smoke Pall Mall or Lucky Strike, or any other shit on a stick, then you have no problem. But packs around here (Greenbay) are $5. So a $70 carton makes no sense to me, but to someone I'm sure it does lmao. I'm sorry for the confusion, my fault.

Ugh, Pall Malls. Not absolutely terrible in that I can handle smoking them. But absolutely terrible in that they do not compare to Newports, Marbs, Camels, or anything else in quality. The tobacco packing is sloppy, the hit is very harsh, and the taste can get annoying. But if they're the only thing around, I'll smoke them.

Currently switching back and forth between Newports, Marlboro Reds, and Basic Menthols. Newports are approx $4.44 a pack here. A carton is pretty equal to 10 packs at $45. I'm mostly taking advantage of the buy 2 get 1 free deals though. Works for me as I don't have to change my brand :)

You're in Wisconsin?? I'm in Wisconsin Rapids :P

$70 a carton does make no sense if a pack is $5. I have friend who was ordering smokes from Russia online for about $15 a carton! I don't know if he still does.

In keeping with this threads tradition of arguing about what we're smoking, I shamelessly self-promote something relevant. Love the Safety valve...

Who argues.. I smoke what I can get my hands on. I'm not fussy.. thats the sign of a long term ingrained nicotine addict.

It will be obvious when Mike the Mink starts smoking (give him 3 years in dark miserable Scottyland as it is inevitable) The preaching will stop.. and silence will reign supreme for us happy smokers..

I went to the link and now I know I'm old and now also deaf! ROFLMAO The lead singer has had the munchies for quite some time now it seems!

And YOU can quit Jan also!!!!! I just wouldn't want to be around you if you did. You would probably reach thru the monitor for someones neck.Mine! I quit 7 years ago and it was easier and so much cheaper. Every time my wife buys a carton, I buy a new optical drive or HDD.
