Okay these days i find that most of the pot that my friends smoke seems to be considerably weaker.

I want to know the strength of the pot you guys get.

The stuff i get reguraly can cause a daze off the first cone and most of the time i find my self zoned out extremly.

second cone, i appear to be in a lot more of daze and the daze worsens the more i smoke.

at the 4 th - 5 th i find i am in another world, not a hallucination just i find myself wondering about everything and figuring out how mechanisms work quicker than i could sober.

i find myself passing out when i come close to 10.

i have had this stuff in combination with dex-amphetamine and i managed to stay up for 3 days with out so much as a yawn.

i've made hash with this and most of my friends greened out after a half cone.


I want your opinions only if you tell the TRUTH.
 
Well, what I get is midgrade around here. 1 cone (about 4-6 hits from a bowl) has me noticeably high for 45min-an hour and a half. Normally, though, I'm smoking about a 1-1.5g blunt with one or two other people and I'll be high for like 2 hours and just high for nearly 4 (and honestly, a blunt of high-grade/exotic gives me almost exactly the same length of high so the choice is kind of a no-brainer).


To be completely honest, though, we kind of over-do it and instead of just stopping at one it's more like 3 j's, a couple 24's and some gas money to go riding and that's like a 2 and a half hour session.




...I just realized that there's a shitload of numbers in this post...

thats what the lower grade stuff does for me here,

my dope is more of a stoned than a high.

but note when my friends and family tried this half of them greened out (including my mum)

the other half passed out go for more or stay fucked for 3 or more hours (which was most of the half).

It's starting to sound like you're trying to get a pissing contest going.
 
Interesting thread.

But people aren't distinguishing between a) the strength of the weed and b) the intensity and duration of the effects. These should be distinguished.

For example, despite my 2+ decades of smoking experience, I am (and have always been) a lightweight. Very, very high quality weed (Alaska Matinooskan, Afghani, Kush, etc.) has me very high from one hit. The high lasts 5 hours, and I can't possibly sleep until this 5 hours is over. My friends (who are used to smoking many, many bowls of this stuff) would not say this. In fact, after smoking any one type of high-quality weed for a week or so, it starts to take 2 hits to get equally high, and then 3 hits after that.

Mid/high weed (like Purple Urple) requires 2-3 hits for me to get very high, when I first smoke it. If I take 3 hits, I will get just as high as from one hit of Alaskan (i.e. 5 hours with no possibility of sleep because my mind is going FAST). Fast forward 2 weeks, and I now need 4 hits or more to get high.

The first time I smoked honey oil, I got so high that I felt almost exactly like I was tripping on acid for 2 hours, then it mellowed into a normal, strong pot high.
Later, I would take 2 hits of it to get very high, and then 3 hits as I got more accustomed to it.

So there are at least 3 factors that are related but should be distinguished:
a) the inherent strength of the weed (THC content, etc.)
b) the natural susceptibility of the smoker (lightweight, etc.)
c) how used to that particular strain the smoker is

(Of course, other factors, such as how much the smoker has indulged in the past week, are also relevant, but it might be a safe assumption that anyone replying here is a daily smoker unless otherwise indicated.)
 
My weeds alright, I smoke a bowl and i'm high for a few hours, most of the time regardless of weed quality i'll smoke another bowl and another bowl when I don't really need to so it'd hard to tell... :(
 
it's good weed. how strong is good weed? that's how strong my weed is.

it gets you high after you smoke it, especially the first time of the day...

anyone wanna join me for the daytime-smoking boycott?

You must have a nice stach
 
I'm fortunate to know 3 different growers & get comped some of THE best weed I've ever smoked in my 40 yrs of tokin herb.
I've got about a QP of various strains: White Widow x Blueberry, BR_1947 [Blue Rhino x AK-47], Kali Spice, NL x Sk#1, Cherry Thunderfuck [Cherry Hemingway x Matanuska Thunderfuck].
I'm also good pals with the guy who writes a grow column in Skunk Magazine. Rolan Terroy [aka REv] is the columnist & has been a 'gourmet-grower' for decades.
I thank my lucky stars to know these cats who are 'growers supreme' & keep my ancient 55 yr old cranium blastoid to the asteroids!! 8(:\
 
The strain I'm currently vapourizing (Super Lemon Haze by GHS) gets me a medium-strong high with about 0.1 grams in my volcano - assuming I only smoke a couple times a week so I don't really have a tolerance or anything... They advertise that strain as 22.9% THC content, but if we assume it is lower (I know it was grown well, but let`s be conservative) at 18%, then 0.1g will have 18mg of THC in it, and from studies I`ve read, most people feel a decent, semi-strong high between 15-20mg of THC dosed through the lungs.
 
I usually pick up 2 strands of weed at a time. A gram of dank (usually Kush) and a 1/4 or 1/8 of regs/greens. The regs is very good and that's all I have been smoking lately because the Kush just makes me too high. I get really anxious off it and my mind is on overdrive for like 3-4 hours. The regs is a much more mellow high, even though it lasts about the same amount of time.

I am actually just getting back into smoking. When I was 15-19, I was an everyday pot smoker and would smoke about 3.5 - 5 grams of kush quality weed throughout the day. I have always been a bong smoker though, and definitely a strong fan of the high provided from a nice fat bong hit. If I am smoking with more people, then I roll a joint though. Joints are a more social way of getting high IMO. When my girlfriend and I smoke, we usually back 1-hitters in the bong though. About .1, snap it in one hit, and we're pleasantly stoned for a good couple hours (:

Just my 2 cents.

What exactly is your base of measurement? 18% of a 1 gram bud? 5 grams? 2 ounces? How do you get 18mg of THC? 18% doesn't translate into milligrams, atleast not without the weight of the bud, THC, etc.
 
If I ever start toking on the regular again, I'm hitting up this DJ I met who gets his bud from Cali. He's friends with the grower, and it HAS to be dank of a certain potency, because the government uses it for medical patients %). Good weed is good
 
I never have to worry, in my part of canada its all good stinky sticky hydro, most of the times you hear common names such as:
-white widow
-northern lights
-White rhino
-strawberry / blueberry hydro
-BC Kush

regardless of if it is what they tell you it gets an average stoner blasted off 1-2 hits. But being around it so much as I live with my suppliers I get to be baked all day :)

Sorry for the ambiguity in my first post - the 18% that I am using is a conservative estimate of the THC content of my Super Lemon Haze. That strain was determined to have a THC concentration of 22.9%, as its posted on Green House Seed Co`s website. Most THC concentration measurements are done using HPLC or some other sort of chromatography. I'm guessing that these companies use almost perfect growing conditions and select only their finest plants to do the THC measurements, so I conservatively guessed that my Super Lemon Haze (which I know as grown relatively well) has a THC concentration of 18%, to take into account growing conditions, trimming, etc... Now, with 18% being (to the best of my knowledge) a mass percentage, then 0.1g of this would theoretically have 18% * 0.1g = 0.018g = 18mg. Of course, this assumes that 100% of the THC is vapourized, and it also neglects the other cannabinoids.

So that's where my number comes from. The 0.1g amount was determined by my best estimate, and sometimes I will weigh up the amount I use before I use it, just for curiosity's sake.
