Indeed.

Hag, what leads you to that conclusion? I'm not a pot smoker (random drug tests) but wouldn't him smoking that much indicate good weed?

He probably has a hell of a tolerance by now.

University farms are some of the best and cleanest shit you'll ever see.

Its definately not as good as some of the crazy high-end strains because there is a certain amount of regulation governing potency. But the quality is downright amazing.

To come across herb like that on the street is a very special day. The only way you got herb from places like that short of somehow getting personally legalized by the government is for a shipment to fall off the truck or to become a student working the field.

It's really not that much, for a long-term daily medicinal user. He smokes an eighth, perhaps a bit more. Big deal.

Because if it were as good as it can be, he wouldn't be able to get off the floor, much less function.
And I seriously doubt that the Fed's crop has improved much, quality-wise, over the years(no incentive to increase the potency), unlike the maniacs in the private sector.

And, Nulli, I saw a 60 Minutes feature on this guy some years ago and those joints were cigarette-sized. Way more than an eighth.

Pretty much Spud's take on government grown weed in Canada too.

#9 | Posted by RevDarko

Pretty much sums up Spud's reaction to this story.

115,000 joints?

* rolls eyes *

If he expects to catch up to Spud he'd better pick up the pace pronto like.

Dude he broke that record a couple years back.

Must be nice, they give him his pot but would arrest me for a much lower useage for similar reasons.

I love the war on drugs without it I wouldn't laugh half as much and might actualy have to have some respect for the government.

"We" have our weed now.

Only Douchebags like yourself will start smoking when it becomes legal.

Assuming a joint has .5 grams, an eighth gives you 7 joints. So he smokes an eighth and a half.

But why is he smoking joints instead of vaping anyway? That's way too much smoke to pump into your lungs everyday.

That's what I was wondering. My lungs hurt just thinking about it.

I use a vaporizer/bong combo to medicate. Just vaping doesn't quite get me there.

There does seem to be a difference. I'm not sure why. Perhaps different cannabinoids--are made active at different temperatures.

A fucking STOCKBROKER gets medical marijuana and not people with even more immediate neurological needs?

Legalize now, because it's obvious that DuPont would never allow anyone to get pot, regardless medical rationale.

10-12 cigarettes a day could be reduced with better potency.

That appears to be the case from my cooking experiments. The liver may find certain cannabinoid bonds simpler to process.

Lightweight alert!!!

What are you, a middle schooler smoking for the first time? I've smoked the best and have NEVER reached this "wouldn't be able to get off the floor" state of high that you speak of.

It will happen. Perhaps you haven't smoked the best for your particular response from those plants cannabinoids. Try a variety to best determine what has your flava, combination or sequence may also matter. Otherwise, you are what we would refer to as "a machine" and would undoubtedly be the best candidate for any future beer runs.

Haze/crystal lady hybrid.
2.5 oz. per week.
Some one gave me an oz. of bubblegum/kush, not even close.
Best I ever smoked was in '75, black vietnamese. Lose the whole day and not care.
Dont smoke joints because of the paper taste, vaporizer kills the potency.

Bowl me.

Aaahhhh.
Snot on the screen.
Its a good day.

If the industry were to take note of this valuable data they would produce a billion-dollar beast overnight. We're just being squeezed for BigPharma ie DuPont. Rumsfeld is such a cretin in his past life with Searle and with his current IG Farben connections throughout acting as BushCo Defense Secretary and setting up the attacks of 9/11. Tamiflu is his doing. He and Cheney should particularly be restricted from entering into private institutions - they might easily provide State secrets to Russia in exchange for a wing at the Beijing Kremlin for all we know. Trust them to fail us.

IG Farben 2001

Secretary of Defense, Donald H. Rumsfeld was Secretary of Defense under President Ford. Rumsfeld like Powell, Cheney, Rice and numerous other Bush administration officials is a salesman for the Star Wars Missile Defense Shield. He served four terms in the US Congress where he voted against Medicare, anti-poverty programs like Headstart, food stamps and various healthcare proposals. Rumsfeld, who formerly headed Searle Pharmaceuticals, is part of the drug company axis within the Bush administration.
