Amsterdam Coffeeshop Directory Forums

I have heard that pre-rolled joints in the dam contain more tobacco than cannabis. Is this true?

it wouldnt surprise me! i like buds not leaves.

Come on guys can u please get back to me on this one?

Yes its true, roll your own, buy a pure pre-roll or ask the budtender if he/she isn't busy if they can roll one for you.

I think the general point with pre-roll's are "How do you know what is in them if you havent rolled it"... Roll your own, smoking a spliff isnt just inhale, exhale, its the art of rolling that perfect doobie 2, take ya time,

Or if you really cant be bothered to roll, you can buy cones to fill up.....

if you want to buy a pre rolled buy one of the pure ones i guess...

my suggestion is either a) buy an inexpensive piece and give it away before you leave, b) use a "house bong" ,or c) take a crash course on rolling... its simple to learn and its fun to see how your rolling skills progress over time... I prefer rolling leafed cigars so thats a whole different breed right there... start with the J bars and give the whirl.

I have also heard that weed can cost up to 60 euros for five grams. This is very expensive as over here i can get five grams for 40 to 50 GBPS

Have a look at the menus you'll see what they cost: http://www.black-arts.org/~reatta/menus.html

You can pay €80 for 5 grams from some places.

I can also get 4 cans of smart price lager from Asda for 3 quid and go and drink it on a corner in a park. Or i can go and buy 4 pints of decent for 11 quid and drink it in a nice beer garden.

If you just want to smoke mid range buds on the quiet so the old bill dont nick you, then yea your probably better staying off at home man, however your paying for the experience as well.

The bud you'll get in Amsterdam is usually dried and weighed up properly, you most likely not that lucky in the UK. No matter what the lad you buy it off says. If you go to the right places you'll score buds that will knock anything you smoked out of the water in the UK, unless you grow your own or have very exclusive connections. Are you always sure your able to score in the UK? No, at least in Amsterdam you are.

£40-50 for 5g?

Yer mad! Unless you're on one of the wee islands, or the weed is perfect, you should be looking at a quarter for that price!

There seems to be a business opporchancity there!

Prices vary everywhere...I live in N.I and my last dealer was selling us 4.5g for £50 and that was pretty much the best deals we've got from anyone round here. For most people that is very expensive....but i guess its all about demand and supply, cos they're ain't much weed about in this country so you gotta take what you can get.

Yea but the scene in N.I is very different from the scene here, its alot more hush hush. In England it should be 6-7 grams for 40 quid. Has been since i was first smoking, years ago.

Yeh tell me about it...it makes smoking a very expensive hobby....plus there is a bit of a drought on here at the minute, can't find anyone selling any sort of smokeables right now.

But i just looking on the bright side and thinking that will make me appreciate amsterdam even more when i'm there in 2 weeks time.

Thats a very cool and postive attitude man, good on you. I know alot of people there, they have the same problems. Grow your own is the best bet there man, then your not putting money into the hands of the paramillities as well.
