I'm a dam-only smoker now so always roll my spliffs with tobacco in (i have the occassional pure once i've been there a while but find them strong) With the new upcoming tobacco ban, can anyone suggest a tobacco alternative i could put into my smokes in Amsterdam?

I've never tried one that didn't make me cough and want to puke...cheap weed like Thai or Jamaican is the only way to go IMO.

Yeah - maybe cheap light weed is the way to go - ok, i'm now gonna ask a question i never thought i'd ask!

Which weeds are available in the Dam that are good value(maybe in 5g deals), weak and of little taste?

Bring some NTB ciggs from Holland and Barret they don't smell very nice but do the trick

Get yourself down to Katsu, 5 grams of Haze shake (on the menu as Haze Gruis) for €20.

In some shops they have already made or have plans to make a separate area for tobacco smokers. The only problem there, is the law says the staff cannot go into or service that area. How they expect it to be kept clean is beyond me. :roll: The other alternative would be to go outside. It's still pretty hazy (pun intended) as to how it will actually happen. One of those wait n see kinda things, I guess. :wink: One Love.

great logic, an area of the c/s that i can go into as a customer but the staff cant, sounds like american reasoning to me lol

Victorian diving suits with an air-pipe leading to an alpine meadow seems to be a reasonable solution to me.

Thanks Boner - i'll try that on my trip in a couple of weeks in preparation for the tobacco ban.

i dont use tobacco at all, i was gave a pouch of this stuff to try & i quite like it. as i only smoke pure weed joints, it saves me a hell of a lot of goodness.
