Good Ways To Tell If Weed Your Buying Is The Real Deal?

Post by ehill »

Hey fellas
I'm new here so Im just gonna say hello.

Anyway, pretty soon im gonna be buying some weed, maybe 2 grams or so, but Im not sure if i trust this kid. Can anyone fill me in on soem hard and fast rules to telling if its good shit and not like ... oregano or something. Besides smell, thats the first thing i'd check for. I'm gonna be paying about $25-30 for this, by the way.

Thanks

First of all, you're getting ripped. Second of all, don't let him know you a beginner. Third, don't ever pay for shit more than 10$ a gram, unless it's some bomb shit, but even then, you couldn't tell, you'z a beginner.

Make sure what he sells you is nuggets, "flowers", buds or whatever, not leaves. Leaves don't get you high for shit (well, maybe they will make YOU, but either way it's schwag and you getting ripped, and shouldn't be paying more than 2 dollars a gram). anyhow, if you living in Canada, you getting ripped, and if you living in the US, you getting laughed at. GL with that, and try to get some decent shit bro. Oh and, by the way, if you buy a 3.5 it will be more economic usually, and will look like you know the shit more than you actually do. and please for god's sake if he tells you 35$ tell him are you crazy, you trynna ripp me off off 10-15 bucks fool!? Fuck you! and then slap the door in his face.

Make sure it smells good and that its not leafy or seedy, after that you can only tell from experience theres really no other solid way to tell

First thing is to make sure it's in buds, not all crushed up. If you're a beginner and your dealer knows it, then be very sceptical if he gives you a bag full of crushed up green stuff, it could be any manner of household herbs.

Next thing to look for is THC, if the buds have white crystals on it, then it's more than likely the real deal. The more of those crystals there are, the better the quality.

Then check for seeds and leaves, there shouldn't be any of that going on, but as this is a first time buy and you don't have a reliable hook up, you may have to settle for something slightly leafy, but not much.

Thanks guys. So I figured I'd try to work it down to about $20- $25 for 2 grams, or $30- $35 for 3 and a half. Hows that sound?
That's silly.

From what I have heard, the guy I will be buying off of uses and electric scale that measures in grams, so i figured 3.5 would be best to avoid confusion.

If i was you i would ask for an 1/8th. if he looks at ya a bit funny then say 'you know 3.5g'. Just make it sound like you've bought it before. Watch him weigh it up.

Your bud should look a little like that. Too me that dont look too good quality but that'll give ya a rough idea.
