In fact, from my experience, a lot of flashy weed can be bad. Designer labeled weeds that showcase a menagerie of colors are notorious for their lack of THC, because growers introduce new plants for hybridization. Without an adequate presence of cannabis, the THC levels drop dramatically. I've smoked some flashy stuff, and no matter how many bowls I packed I just got a slight lightheaded buzz.

From my experience, the smell is a much surer way to determine quality. Stinky weed is good.

1: The prices are not bad at all. I have bought weed in many places around the country including California where weed is extremely cheap. If its good quality Headies or brand name weed then 130 a half O is a very reasonable price.

2: Flashiness is a great way to determine if your weed is good. For instance most good weed looks way better because of the amount of crystals on the outside of he bud, and the number of red strands. That combined with smell can almost always tell you if its good weed or not. But as you said im sure there are some exceptions.

3: I have come across about 4 strains that did not smell like much. Seemed average beasters, or maybe even good mids, but turned out to be as potent as some much more expensive bud.

All of you guys who know an absurd amount about pot...what? Who cares, if it works, it's wonderful. Weed is among the least interesting subjects ever. The reason you smoke weed is to do things and talk about things more interesting than horticulture.

I actually think the best part about it is that it brings people together. I have met many people through it, and came out of it with positivity and good times.

Wrong. Conventional methods of using nicotine and caffeine prevent you from ingesting more than your body can handle at any one time. It's like drinking beer. You can't get alcohol poisoning from just drinking beer. You throw up or you pass out before you can ingest enough. Furthermore, there are no known cases of overdose on LSD or psychedelic mushrooms. Just bad trips.

ok first off, you can OD on acid, you can OD on shrooms and you can OD on pot. although you wont die you can over dose. pot; you pass the **** out. acid; perma-trip. and as for mushrooms your a fool to think that you cant die from something that prepares your body to die. you can die from taking to many of some kinds of shrooms.

That's. Not. An. Over. Dose.

Yes, there IS significant evidence that taking too much LSD leads to unrepairable psychosis. But for all your wisdom, it still takes chronic abuse over many large doses to lead to such a state. One large hit isn't gonna get you there. (It's like suggesting cirrhosis of the liver or lung cancer is caused by an overdose). And the whole "acid stays in your spine for your lifetime" is a crock of nonsense. I heard this shit since middle school. It's just a bunch of fucking propaganda.

And no, you cannot physically overdose on weed. There has NEVER been a documented fatality from overdose on marijuana. Or shrooms. Get your fucking facts straight.

Agreed. Passing out from smoking pot is not OD-ing... it's a side effect.

The dosage at which you will overdose on lsd is 11,000 times the normal dosage. So as you can tell the only thing thats ever overdosed is a lab rat.

What you said is completely true. They are a poison in which you can get very sick from and possibly die. (this is only the case if using very carelessly though)

Psychedelic mushrooms are non-toxic and non-addictive. The active psychotrope, psilocybin, is NOT a very toxic substance, about twice that of caffeine. It takes almost 17 kg of fresh shrooms or 1.7 kg of dried shrooms (over 500 times the recommended dosage) to achieve the LD 50. That's $20,000 worth of shrooms, and you have to eat it all without vomiting.

Seriously, who are you getting these ideas from? Your preacher?
