Surely on these trips...

Surely on these trips people are just so fucked out of their mind after the first few hours of smoking that everything smoked after that is hard to appreciate properly. Is that the point though, to just try as much as possible and get really messed up doing it? Cause that's cool, I totally understand it, but then people are writing detailed reports on each strain they tried which indicates that they're really keen to properly experience each of these strains.

Maybe I'm just more of a lightweight, but if I smoked 130gs in 5 days or whatever it was that TWOCANUCKS smoked, I would be on the floor

I would say consumption is high as some members travel miles to experience what the Dam has to offer, maybe only making one trip a year (For some).

As for descriptions of each strain, well as you said your fucked out your mind so the chances are some descriptions could and will be well out.

Myself i smoke maybe 7-10g a day in the dam but at home its around 3.5g. Normally only manage to describe properly the first strain of the day after that its pics,prices and CS purchased at. I would also say that strain i smoked before bed the night before that was shit will taste alot better in the morning Guaranteed.

(IMHO)

Yea i agree that many of us smoke 2 much but 4 many of us having such a big choice of top bud is something that only happens the few times a year whilst in the dam

I also smoke a lot at home, this is mainly due 2 shite quality

Ur a lucky man u can smoke top class all of the time

think that if i were so lucky id only need a few joints a day

r u smoking some nice stuff at mo

I had this very same discussion with my mate at the weekend, we both thought "feck it"

No no, don't get me wrong I think all of these trips look great!

But I guess this approach just isn't something I would have thought of before reading this forum. For me, if I was a real pot head on holiday in Amsterdam, I would buy the most expensive, highly recommended kind of weed. Maybe some Terminator or something? Then I'd smoke it and do something, like hang out in a park, go to a museum.. I dunno, just do something and enjoy the effects of the drug intermingling with the experience of what I'm doing. It's a different approach to go on a coffeehouse crawl, and binge on every single kind of weed that looks good.

Again, I like the weed binge approach, and I'm jealous that I can't afford to do that! Just a different way of going about it is all

And yeah man, at the moment I'm still job hunting so I had to go cheap. Got 4 grams fo Blueberry from Mellow Yellow, and it's almost gone. Very cheap and cheerful though! Looking forward to sampling some of the better stuff once I have a proper job though!

To be honest, it's looking a little dry. Haha, just to make you feel a little better

if i had unlimited funds and was there for ages i would smoke 3g of one strain each day. but as i am not rich i smoke 5/7 different strains each day for 3 days.you dont get the full effect of each one but its gotta be done as im only there once a year.

Yeah on my last trip i think i smoked 28 different strains and tbh after bout the second day they all merged , couldnt tell you taste , smell , look !? next time im gonna savour one strain during the day maybe another at night , so i can get the full benefit of the weed instead of just smoking myself silly !

Its all about the quality of the Pot you choose IMO.
For instance, If I have been smoking L.A.Confidential ( or any other strong Indica) then I move on to some SuperSilver Haze, the SSH ( if it is a good sample) will cut right through the heavy indica stone. If it doesn't, and I am still heavily stoned, then Its not such a good sample.

In the same vain, If I am smoking, say Cheese. Then I roll up some Kush, the flavour of the Cheese and the Kush should be clear to spot the difference.

And I totally agree with Kermit. That last smoke before bed will always taste better and hit harder in the morning. ( unless, ofcourse, its just poo to begin with

)

my 2 pennies, make of it what you will.

Mark, you basically described our trip. We're not heavy smokers at all and didn't even need to buy full grams...but we still did most of the time

After a day of smoking high grade we were hitting all of it with the same gusto. We still only smoked a couple different things a day...and sometimes only one strain a day. The tastes and highs were fairly easy to experience and describe that way. I'm not sure we would even WANT to smoke much more than that because as you said, we liked smoking a pure joint of one really good thing and then just enjoyed our accommodations at the moment.

my crew and i are just some addicted crackwhiggers that need sativas as a substitude

nah seriously, amsterdam is just holliday. we each smoked about 10-16 g a day but never got close to get sick or so. just my one buddy liked to pass out in 6 (six!!!!) coffeeshops.

now back at home i just smoke my 2 g a day and i am fine. the others smoke even less...

I don't know what would happen to me if I smoked that much in a day, but I'm just scared I'll want to do it the next day... and the next day...

.....and the next day.....
