My personal feeling on this subject is that the cannabis community is embroiled in a whole load of romantisicm lauded as fact - most of which isn't at all credible. Morocco claims they have the best, as does British Columbia, Mexico, The Netherlands, California, Colorado blah blah blah. YAAAWN.

As far as I'm concerend - no-one has the best weed, because that's a nonsense. Pure marketing bullshit. Plain and simple.
'The best' is always in the eye of the beholder and is always subject to the whim of the moment. Anyone that tries to tell me different - hmmmmm. Basically I'm switching off and nodding politely - in the same way I do when people tell me that 'Sativa' 'gives you a lift' and 'Indica' - 'makes you sleepy'.

'mmmm. yeah. Interesting'. Sorry what where you saying?

Amen, OHMF! BTW, isn’t it about time for someone to post the semi-annual “what strain will make me laugh the hardest?” Ha, ha.

Was thinking to myself the other day that my gold standard of a sativa is Green Crack from Backcountry Cannabis Company in Colorado. But some of the “cleanest” was a fresh batch of Northern Lights from Yo-Yo. Then again the hardest I laughed was Super Siver from Balou that I happened upon while waiting on wife to get Wok-to-Walk across the street. Deepest mind-numbing stone was ...

The point you make very well, OHMF, is that the effect of weed is all relative. Place you smoke, mood, company, all the way down to the socks you have on :shock: have an effect.

But I still enjoy reading others’ perspectives!

If you want California weed, go to California, Colorado weed, go to Colorado, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Spain, Nimbin, all the same story, if you want their weed, go there not somewhere half way around the world.
Current laws make it difficult to move strains internationally.

its all the rage with the younger crowd now, cali this cali that, some of them are paying £120 for a 3.5!

ive smoked a couple of bits myself, the paris og is very nice, that lemon tree organics isnt bad either but forget paying those prices!

seems to be averaging in the dam at €40 per gram. i hear it comes from england, so not only is it the bits california doesnt want but its also the bits we havent taken!
Paris og is 260 an oz here in New York
$260. then someone has to buy it and pack it for shipping $300
then someone has to run the risk of sending it in international mail $350
then someone has to run the risk of landing it in the uk $400
then that has to be distributed to people who can move it $450
then its split down and sold on in 3.5's at £100 a time

its a business not a charity.

stick to smoking local its better anyway, we dont use PGR's here in england
ignoring spellcheck since 1986

island? I'm in the states....I'm not illustrating stregth, but rather how grass is always greener on the other side.

I vape so I don't build that tar tollerence in my lung like I used to. Stregth isn't most important factor to me personal, since were on the subject.
