I have exactly the same they're really good but after a while they can make the odd clicking sound ect but they're cheap enough that you could replace them every grow if needed around £27 each

Show me the evidence. I mean seriously how ridiculous is this statement, why would any sane dealer do that? UK stoners are connoisseur's, not idiots, they would spot bad weed in a puff, and nobody would buy it, the seller would be out of business in 5 minutes. Its not going to do much for the weight either. To my knowledge this story originates from a picture sent by an anonymous scientist to the pro cannabis charity 'Drug Scope' who seem to have fallen for it hook line and sinker. An anonymous scientist who remains unwilling to back his findings up with personal disclosure is taken seriously by The Guardian, a paper with a political agenda, how laughable is that. Call me paranoid but, if there really was glass in your weed, assuming you looked under the microscope to verify your comments, I'd be asking, what have I done, for what reason would anyone put glass only in my weed. What else am I consuming that could be contaminated. If someone contaminated my weed I'd be straight back to the dealer for an explanation, what did your dealer have to say?
Hey man- guys in the UK might now be connoisseurs, but whatever year I started this thread (08/09/10, can't really remember), we definitely weren't connoisseurs. You'd get a bag of amnesia, and it would be whatever dirt weed your plug had. Sprayed weed was really common back in the day.

I had a friend who told me a story once of how he saved all of the crystals from these bags of super crystal-ly green, put it all into one joint and ended up coughing up blood for days. Yeah it was probably over exaggerated, maybe some of it was sugar, but we definitely had sprayed smoke back in the day.

It's a very different story now I'm glad to say, and I haven't come across sprayed green for well over 10 years. The quality has also gotten waaaaay better than it once was too.

I'm glad that the guy who had been smoking for 30 years has also never heard of it. But I'd also imagine you would have had much better connections that what I had when I was a late teenager. It's the main reason I ended up growing my own.

I have been smoking weed in the UK for over 30 years and the first time I have ever heard of that is on this thread.
Things get a bit strange the more north you go. Wee village in the highlands and some shady polish dealer. He was caught for adding glass. Smoke was horrible but it was either that or sticky black. Would fizz and spark in a joint.

Trouble is when no competition quality can be non existent and still sell for folk are desperate

Aye green costs a bomb and is shite up there. Biggest reason I grow for myself now is quality. Also I know what’s in it!

Plus it’s nice to have some life growing through the dreaded winter months.
