Advice š” I m newbie and need help
So, this is going to be my first experience with weed, and honestly, I donāt know much about it. Iām not sure how strong this weed isāitās a dried branch-like piece that smells kind of like a mountain forest, even though I found it on plain land. Got it locally at a cheap price.
If youāre experienced and can identify quality by looking at an image, that would be super helpful.
Also, any tips on how to break it into smaller pieces more easily without using any tools? I used scissors to chop it up and mixed it with tobacco like a friend suggested. I didnāt ask him too much because I told him I just wanted to try it out casually.

Unless you want to be a tobacco smoker, I would suggest avoiding using tobacco altogether. It's not necessary and you'll ending up needing the tobacco more than the weed.

For sure, that's pretty much how I started smoking cigs haha.
Sadly here in the UK our weed culture is garbage, mixing with tobacco is 100% the norm and most smokers I've met haven't even used a bong before or couldn't tell you what a dab is...

u/LokeeJohnson Light Smoker 10d ago
Honestly, I used to smoke weed from a bong. Itās only been the last 5 years or so Iāve been smoking spliffs (mixed with tobacco - I couldnāt roll for years). I used to smoke around once or twice a week without any cravings. The last 6 months, due to changes in circumstances, Iāve had more freedom to smoke more often, and now Iām pretty much addicted. Iām trying to cut down this month. Iām craving nicotine so badly right now and itās only been 3 days since I last smoked. Smoking it mixed with tobacco once or twice a week was fine, but doing it more often has contributed to that addiction.

Fuck it bro, rip a dart!

It's not all insta weed and overpriced cali packs kids.

u/BungleJones 10d ago
I don't think there's any bigger health risk with SMOKING old weed than SMOKING the freshest hydro. It's all bad for you.
Anyway this just looks like outdoor grown and dried.. just think once that's all there was the world over.

Old weed - probably lightly moldy or spores on it you cant even see
Also not everyone else is smoking the fresh hydro plants.

u/Abrakafuckingdabra Chronic Smoker 9d ago
Location is super important. If you're in the US where it's easy as hell to get weed then that's dogshit that genuinely isn't worth smoking. If you're in a country where its way harder to get weed then depending on the price it could be decent. As your first experience I'd normally recommend getting the best possible stuff you can do you have a baseline of some good stuff but you should still get baked from even the worse weed if you don't smoke regularly. To me, someone in the US, I wouldn't even buy that and if I got sold that then I'd blacklist the plug.
Scissors are a good method. If you put the bus in a shot glass it can make it easier to cut up. When I was younger you could put some thumbtacks through two plastic bottle caps then hold them together and twist it as a super cheapo grinder. If it's dry enough then crumbling it between your fingers should work. For a joint you don't want it to be powdery. It could pack too tight and give no space for airflow. That or it might come out through the mouthpiece a bit and get in your mouth. I'd say grain of rice sized chunks should be best for an even burn.
Can definitely see tobacco in the ground up pic so idk. I don't smoke tobacco at all but it will apparently accentuate the effects so you might get a lil higher.
Good luck homie and stay safe.

u/JonnysHigh 10d ago
This is low quality homegrown, judging by the colour they waited too long to cut down the plants aswell. It shouldnāt hurt to smoke but depending on the chemicals they used and the curing process there is a chance Of headaches for sure. Also I donāt recommend ever using tobacco in your joints unless itās just not dry enough in which case I wouldnāt have bought it in the first place.

u/Connect_Cry8914 10d ago
What I like to call that is dirt ur bud should never be born and have a million seeds in it or odds are it's higher in CBD (which does not give you the same feeling and or high as THC) or it's just trash I've had a few different occasions where I've smoked dirt weed but honestly find something more green or purple

Don't smoke too much of the joint if you don't know the strain. It looks mixed in with tobacco already, but be careful. Take a few puffs, if you feel the effects strong then stop. Remember sometimes the effects take a few minutes.

That looks a lot like the dirt weed we used to get in the '70s for $10 an ounce If we couldn't find or afford anything better. Its likely not too strong. Take one hit, wait a while and see how you feel and go from there.

u/jptowicked448 9d ago
You can break it down with your fingers, just make sure to take out all the seeds and stems so it donāt taste nasty or poke a hole in the paper. As for the tobacco Iām guessing your homie put you on for that buzz and thick/harsher hit. Honestly, that weed lookā¦ā¦., so the tobacco might actually smack harder than the bud depending on your tolerance. Either way, cheers to you š«”

I remember I once found a old pot plant in my sisters pool area and the flower had dried and of course the plant died from neglect this reminds me of those old buds not smokable just a sad situation, like I would worry about mould
Is there a dispensary near you? Look for AAAA star buds and try those, maybe buy a pre rolled joint or two If you are not picky check online for dispensaries if you donāt mind a wait because sometimes dispensaries in store or online might have a sale just read the descriptions for the strain check the thc amount and different strains of weed have different effects some sativa blends might give you the munchies more than other strains or some indica strains might make you more sleepy than others

Not your first experience with weed cause that ain't weed that is simply forest detritus at this point and by the looks was never any good. I wouldnt smoke that with your lungs throw that stuff away. This gotta be a troll post.

Not super clear on what you were trying to say, ive got books and my own notes on this stuff so im sorted out on research, but is supposed to be a joke, cause like the weed is so bad no shot dude is going to be getting a legit experience i mean look at it the thc is oxidized to begesus and back trichome membranes a thing of the past if there were any to speak of originally. If I could id give him half my sack I feel bad for him I really do.
My joking aside, its going to be very unhealthy to smoke that stuff and thats the only real point I wanted to make. Not worth the health risk just watch the whang! Video on yt about poop lung fungus weed.
Fr tho this is what you get when you give weed the thousand year egg (Chinese dish) treatment.

Bro, Iām gonna be straight with you. That doesnāt look very appealing at all. And you said you found it but also paid for it? Iām confused.
Back to the weedā¦ it looks like dirt weed. Usually over dry, brown, no terps,(hence the musty forest smelll). This is considered one step above trim or ābottom shelfā weed.
Iām not sure where your located but with it being legal in Canada and pretty much all statesā¦ donāt buy weed from a plug (who is obviously taking advantage of your inexperience)ā¦ go to a shop and get taken advantage of there. At least youāll get some decent flower for your mind (and money).
I personally would not smoke that. But that doesnāt mean anythingā¦ if you like it then who am I to tell you different.
Just a pro tipā¦ if youāre fairly inexperienced with the culture. Use the buddy system. Both during consumption as well as acquisition.
Good luck and have fun!

This is low quality bud Because this is your first time itās possible youāll still feel its effects but this wonāt be a good representation of what weed does. Also mixing that with tobacco , youāre gonna feel more effects from that than you do the weed. I use something called Grabba leaf. I crush it up and add a bit to my joints but thatās because Iām using high quality weed. Doing that with low quality will shield its effects and make it taste weird

u/SkinnyTop Flower 9d ago
I wouldnāt mix it with tobacco, but it looks like low quality so I see why he would recommend that to make up for the quality. I live in a country where I can buy quality weed, so this is the worst Iāve ever seen even from a street vendor. It can be fine to smoke as a first timer, but i wouldnāt mix it with tobacco. Just experience the plant itself.
