Most of what's going around here looks like the top pic. But with more red hairs on it. Very rarely do we see anything close to the bottom shot. I mean. I've seen them kinda frosty. But not looking like it was dipped in diamond dust.

I love Shwag. The good ol dirty outdoor.

I've seen outdoor nugs with lots of bag candy....it's all on the grower..

I like joints like this......

This is the Somari I grew outdoors

I agree-there is levels to this shit

I actually find buds of differing densities and shapes. There are some powerful genes around that don't make dense buds and look even worse after they're trimmed. Some of my faves look mediocre at best.

What amazes me lately is how much variation there is in the trichomes' ability to stay attached. Some strains leave a Kief trail everywhere and some are tough as hell.

Some people are happy smoking shitty looking bud.

All personal preference.

Prison wine also achieves a desired effect. But I personally would rather have a nice glass of cab.

I'm totally happy smoking untrimmed shitty looking bud.
When I "manicure" my bud for sale, I know I am loosing a lot of good leaf, with trichs all over them, but the customers don't want to see that. They want the hard nug like things, and will frown on my leafy Sativa bud.
But, you have to give the customer what they want, so I simply keep all that great "shitty" looking bud for myself, and sell them what they want.
Their happy, I'm happy, so all is good

Here's some ugly for ya lol. Copperchem
And the buds your looking at will wreck your day.

Got some of that Copper just out of the dirt! Looking ahead here. Nice buds there!

Prettiest back drop I could find lol can't seem to throw that issue away.
Too bad she's married.

But that's what chems are normally looking like,chems have never been super good looking, them have they own bag candy...more like grandma's candy dish,with all the old candy corn/mint hard candy....

I been smoking dry sift all weekend...no flowers at all,my head has never been more clear.

When I first heard the term 'bag appeal" I laughed. Like in real life, out loud. It's pathetic really.
I've been using cannabis for over 15 years and the way it looks is irrelevant, unless it's mouldy as fuck, but then your nose should detect that too.. Most likely you're going to incinerate it, so why would its look mean anything.

Too many people are caught up in looks now days. It's unfortunately a big issue society should really deal with.. It's like supermarkets dumping massive amounts of produce because it didn't fit their aesthetic criteria. It's crazy, bananas have to have a certain curvature, parsnips must be straight.
We're losing touch with what nature actually is.

When I hear the term bag appeal I usually picture Scarlett johansson or Jessica alba in lingerie doing more work then a pack of blue pills.
When it comes to weed tho I think bag appeal is irrelevant. Except for resale.
While I agree with gen and everyone else that I won't even smoke shitting looking weed I've also smoked plenty that was super pretty but was verified weak sauce.
Sometimes nothing is as much a downer as having lots of great looking weak ass weed. Part of why I only smoke my own now
