Amsterdam Coffeeshop Directory Forums

I am a everyday smoker who know nothing about weed or hash, I know how to roll nice joints and everytime I smoked I will look at my pre-roll joints and say to myself:what a wonderful joint.

Okay heres the question:
1) I am going to amsterdam this coming august and i dont know what kind of weed I should choose for myself as i dont know the name, the strength of the weed I had been smoking in uk..can anyone give me any suggestions?(I never really fucked myself up by smoking weed so I dont know how strong I can take:P)
2)my friend is a first timer and due to my lack of knowledge I can not tell her what weed she should, any suggestions?
3)Ive heard that customer may only purchase 5G of weed everyday in the same coffee shop , so does that mean we can get 5G from every coffee shops we go to? can me and my friend get 5G each so we can hv more to smoke at night?

thank you for answering my questions hope you all have a nice day

1) Ask the budtender for the less strong buds, see how it reckons with you, if it's all cool move up, if not chill for bit on that level and build up your tolerance.

2) Outdoor, Thai, Jamaican etc. Roll a joint, not a massive one, let them take 2 puffs, wait ten minutes, see how they're feeling and then smoke as needed. Keep something sugary near by just in case she starts feeling light headed.

3) Yes you can. 5 gram per person. Most things in Amsterdam are negotiable though.

1) Any specific one you recommend?

like he said thai or jamaican..even some purple haze. go for the cheaper stuff. i hear the orange bud is nice for beginners. for me chocolope is mild but thats me. maybe grey mist/berry?

dampkring 2 would be my choice the 7.50 euro a gram ones, white russian, white choco, bubblegum theres a few. or 420 would be a nice relaxed start.
its 5 grams per person, and if you ask nice they might allow you more.

Where is the coffee shop you guys mentioned? Cuz I will be staying in either GHE or a apartment in the centre, just wondering will it be close enough for me to just walk there, and by the way, what time is the coffee shop normally closed at? Thank you all!!

if your staying at ghe you wont have trouble finding a shop. you cant spit w/o hitting a cs on that street. hill street blues is just a few feet away and ghe has its own cs.

Your best bet is to ask the bud tender. I only smoke when I go to amsterdam (once maybe twice a year). I prefer smoke like arjens haze from de kuil (420) or nepalese temple ball from stix. I just stick a small amount in my joints untill my tolerance is more atune. I find what suits one person will not automatically suit another. That is half the fun in finding out what weed or hash you like. I will be in holland for 3 weeks in september (visiting relatives) and I will be writing a trip report with photos. I hope you and your friend have a great trip and here are a few suggestions on coffeeshops to go to.

Stix, de kuil, Dampkring, basjoes, de tweede kamer, grey area, amnesia.
