I think I've been ripped off.

I just picked up £40 of weed off some guy in the street. Everything about the deal seemed dodgy as hell, but I couldn't back out and ended up with what I now think is just a bag of herbs.

It hasn't got that distinctive weed smell I love so much (I can't figure out what it smells like), and it feels soft and fluffy, almost like cotton or something.

I went home so I could inspect it more closely, and it still seems dodgy as fuck. It has a few stalks in it though. Do household herbs have stalks? I haven't got a clue. It does kind of clump together like I'd expect normal weed to, but I haven't got any knowledge of other herbs so I can't compare it to anything. All I know is that is isn't the shit I'm used to smoking.

I've tried two bongs from it so far, but I'm so paranoid about the whole thing and can't tell if I'm getting a high off it, or just a nicotine rush from the baccy.

So yeah, the unnecessary long-winded explanation is really just leading me to my question. Are there any strains which feel soft and fluffy, are dry as hell and smell like they should be added to a beef casserole - or have I just thrown £40 away like a damn fool?

Here are some blurry phone pics:

People still waste / ruin their smoke by adding tobacco? That is your first mistake.

You probably got ripped off. This is why you don't buy "drugs" off the street.

Its probably weed, but its probably not cured, and/or maybe wet.

Not to mention the obvious bammer factor.

find a better dealer. and smoke watcha got.

Well if you bought it from some shady guy off the street what did you expect?

This should be an incentive for you to grow. Why waste money on garbage?

Any weed that hasn't properly been dried and cured will feel fluffy.

ONLY BUY FROM SOMEONE YOU KNOW & TRUST

WOULD YOU LIKE TO FRY YOUR BRAIN IF THEY ADDED SOMETHING TO THE WEED ?????????

YOUVE BEEN SCREWED LOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOL

HAVENT SEEN ANYTHING THAT BAD IN 25 YEARS. I WOULDNT SMOKE IT !!!

looks like and if it smell like hay/dry grass,then the grower fucked up when curing it like i did
off my first ever grow,should still smell like weed when burnt and should get you stoned/ish

if it was "herbs/spice" as in what you add to foods,you would know right away by the smell
of herbs and spice.....erm?.....right?....yeah?you know what i mean?

My friend Live & Learn. Because you just got screwed. 1) Don't buy from some scumbag off the street. This happened to me and my brother years ago except once we saw how shit the deal was we took it and told the guy to fuck off without even paying. So funny. What was the poor bastard to do. Get Bashed! 2) If it looks suspect don't waste your hard earnt $. 3) Best advice I can give you is grow your own. Hell if your stuck for somewhere to grow go find a nice patch of forest and chuck some Auto Flowering strains in. 2 months and bingo you got bud!

it looks like bud its probaly premature and it will smell and taste like hay i have experianced that lol

It appears to be that "fake" week sold in High Times........

the first pic looks like pencil shavings.

the second pic looks like some good bammer or mids

Although it doesn't look very dark, if it lacks an odor, it may have been water cured...

On the contrary, I bought an eighth off of a good friend of mine (before he became my regular connect) and the weed first off, looked like someone took some green and white yarn and gathered it together (it was really strand-ish, like almost fibrous to the point where if I pulled on it, it would stretch out in strands) beyond this, it smelled just like lipton lemon tea (not even a hint of any weed I've ever had in my life)... so I take my garbage looking/smelling weed and light up a bowl using probably around 1/10th of a g... after about 15 minutes I was pissed! No effects whatsoever, around the 30 min mark I was destroyed..

So try it out... it may not be as bad as you think

LOL Did u jsut tell everyone you smoked a lipton tea bag as weed?
Thats sad man..
My advice Dont smoke it, re sell it to some other stupid kid if u wanna make you money back but other then that man.
Find a reliable dealer
Or
Grow your own, Sorry for your luck man !
Take it easy.

no I didn't smoke goddamned lipton tea. lol.. honestly, I'd say try the shit out and see if it's decent (not lipton tea) haha

haha 'pencil shavings' is exactly what that crap looks like.. yep dude, sorry, you got robbed.. BUT you have that crappy weed now so I suggest smokin a few cigs before you toke the weed (kind of tricks your mind that there is more to the weed hit than there is).. also helps with shitty weed is to workout, sweat before you toke and drink some caffienated beverages.. make ur metabolic rate increase and gets your body to work through the thc faster therby increasing the experience BUT lasts for shorter period.. haha good luck!

^^ yep get on the treadmill and do some cardio while taking hits! haha you'll be reaaaalll fucked up really quick. lol..

^ thats why he added tobacco dumbass

i don't understand why it is that people post dumb shit before even bothering to read the whole post......ZenOne.... i've had beasters that smell like tea with ridiculous amounts of orange hairs, and they got me stoned, don't go by just the smell, but regardless, i do beleive you should grow your own and dont trust british sketchballs.

haha, I've bought my share of fake or garbage shit (all different types of rugs). One time I was hanging out in my place with my girlfriend back in the day, and as I lived off washington square park I used to walk in the park and pick up a dime all the time, so I went out in the park and bought. I was right in the middle, about a block from my place. I never even looked at the shit cause no matter what I always got either horrible shit wees or aight weed, but it was always weed. As I walked into my building I looked and the shit was broken up leaves, sticks, and dirt. I was so fucked up already , I ran back to the park and caught up to the guy (2 Jamaican kinda druggies, don't even think they had bud, they were selling dirt to buy some probs), when he saw me he kinda took off running, but there was no way this guy was running away from me (a stoned, drunk, 25 year old ex. Highschool tailback). Needless to say I caught up to him and when I grabbed him he basically just fell down (at least that's how I remember). I then started yelling at the guy that I was gonna kick his ass and the other dealers and some people in the park came over closer. The dealers kinda tried to scare me by yelling at me to get off the guy (I was kneeling on his chest), but I paid no attention and kept telling the guy to give me my money back. Right when I was gonna put my hands in his pockets (damn that would have been gross in retrospect) the guy just handed me the ten that was in his hand still. I then stood up and said out loud "we the fuck has some weed?". Two of the other dealers came right up to me and as I walked home I bought 2 of the three dimes (damn strong street). I then walked in the apartment and fired up a gravity bong session with my girl. If I tried that shit now at my age, I'd prob be in trouble. Sorry you got ripped off. Grow if you can, otherwise check what your buying. Lates. Happy 4:20 by the way!!!! That's what I'm celebrating..... Soooooo fukin stoned

yah im growing my own shit and just take a drag after u take a hit it will taste bad but it will fuck u up and do a knifey hit with the weed
