Chinese weed?
    #194807 - 02/11/09 04:09 PM (15 years, 1 month ago)

So AFOAF just scored and showed me his weed. It looked pretty good to my inexpert eye: crystals, some big buds, etc. And he told me it was really potent, but then he dropped a bombshell: the weed had supposedly come from China.  :eek:

Has anyone heard of weed coming from China?
Usually it comes from Amsterdam, and I obviously can't be certain this didn't, but I don't know why they'd pretend otherwise.

Also, this weed didn't smell like weed. I couldn't quite place the smell, it was part citrus-y, part something else entirely...

I'm disinclined to try any of it until I get some feedback. Is Chinese weed OK? Do some strains not smell like cannabis or should that be a red flag?

Thanks

LMAO.

No Chinese weed is not ok to smoke.  It contains lead.  I thought everyone knew this... :confused:

lol it's probably a kush variety, which ORIGINATED out of the hindu-kush region near pakistan, which is noted for its high potency, short, thick, dense plants, and skunky smell. what i've noticed though is the skunky can also smell citriusy. so who knows?

There's a chance the weed could contain lead? Definitely not trying a hit of it if that's the case.

According to the Cannabis Grow Bible, marijuana originated somewhere in the Himalayas.  I doubt it's anything as crappy as what you find wild in those Midwestern states like Kansas. :nonono:

lol im sorry its not even worth it for weed to travel that far...

chinese weed? doubt it...as for  most weed comin from amsterdam...i laugh

your weed probably comes from some outdoor growers, thats usually what gets big buds. as for the smell, citrus is a very familiar weed smell. a particular strain that i know that has a awesome piney/citrus smell is snocap, (it has a very distinctive smell)

i dont think you know much, but try not to be too gullable when people talk, this guy is yankin your chain it did not come from china lol

ive heard of that one time only.

i really doubt it. but if you have a 30x scope you can check it out and see if you see any grey particulate matter (like the filling of a shotgun).


realistically no one thinks its a good idea to put lead in pot for a couple xtra bucks.

Smoke a bit, if it is good, there probably isn't any lead in it, if it sucks, well, don't smoke it.

i'm going to go out on a limb and say there is for sure no lead in that weed.


and I doubt you would taste it either.


so you can look at your weed really closely for metal shavings and spurrs. They will be flat grey. Not green, brown or purple.

Living near Holland, it seems likely enough to me that when people I trust tell me the weed came from Amsterdam, I believe them. Amsterdam is a major centre of drug trafficking and marijuana growing, why is it so far-fetched that my weed would come from there?

As for the Chinese weed, I think you might be right. The Chinese triads are supposedly behind most weed trafficking here (if you believe the news), so maybe the weed came from Chinese people and the origin just got mixed up on the way. I took a photo but I'll have to find my camera before I can upload it.

Thanks for the input all!
