BBC Documentary looking to speak to the cannabis community

[e4ian]

not had hash [or hashish] for yrs but i always remember that the rare-ish 'squidgy' black stuff [soft] being a total knockout! pongy as well ,defo elite compared to all your red & gold seals.

 

[freedom4ever]

Hash = hot rocks. Not worth it imo.

 

[THC4SIM]

Im sat taking hash hits as i write this,
dont be fooled there is some amazing quality hash here in the UK,
you have to pay for the quality.
its just knowing where to get it from...

soapbar!! LOL not seen any for over 10 years! thank god!

 

[Scrogerman]

We call 'SoapBar' = 'DogShit' where im from in the UK, cause thats mostly what it is these days, you just dont see the good stuff these days. I do remember a time when First Press Soapbars(Choc) were good, clean & got you stoned to fk, nowadays some idiot has repressed a Kilo, mixed it with 3 kilo+ of vinal records & dogshit & all sorts of other crap & flogged it on to some naive brit dealer for pittence(little money/on the cheap). I wouldnt smoke Dogshit if it was free!!!!

I do see nice Polm & Super Polm, & various decent quality flat press Marroc's, Kashmiri/Paki blacks & the odd bit of tasty Charras(my personal favorite) I do see the odd nice bit of Bubble hash knocking about for sale too. They are always clean & get you heavy stoned, but you have to pay for them, the good hashish is/can be expensive, but it is out there if you know the right people. I have access to a permenant supply of very decent Hashish, but i prefer the Bud all day long!

Hash = hot rocks. Not worth it imo.

soap bar in a spliff = hot rocks
real hash in a pipe = nice white ash

like sim says u gotta know who and where ,

 

[DocLeaf]

We was so stoned we thought the sand in the barrels was kif at first.. lol

Hashish in the UK is as good n as fresh as it's source.. bulk's bulk , but the good stuff is still worth puffing on ,,, and if you can't find a nice manali cream,, then you have to blend your own

(from kif, scuff, scissor, n dried flowers of JackHerer) ,, work the oils about together

peace

 

[Unclepeter]

seen the first one

lots of good points already posted here, lets hope the take note of this for future programs
I also think a few here that posted negative comments before the show owe an apology to documaker

I disagree to me it was a shambles... showing children smoking with their parents is not good, it hands the argument straight to the opposition...

that just plays into the daily fails hands

you make some good points scrogger, but i think what you and many others here are looking for is a documentary that is biased towards cannabis, just as all of us are biased towards cannabis.
it's uncomfortable to see kids smoking cannabis when their mums should have control over them but unfortunately that does happen - just as kids abuse alcohol etc - and it has been shown to effect the developing brain in a negative way so it is an issue that needs to be considered in any balanced program - i thought it was pretty clear that it was the circumstances the kid was in that was the problem and not so much the weed anyway.

See the second child who clearly had plenty of issues didn't bother so much as the one with parents that sat their puffing away with him... not smart from an persuasive point of view to the right wingers....



it did show the police still do the majority of busts on grasses info mind!!!

 

[f1auto]

is the cannabis series on bbc 3 what this docu maker was wanting people to be in?

its complete shit (boring, predictable, boring)

im not gonna even bother watching the next one

 

[Purple Monster]

Interesting I saw this last night. And my first thought was, is this from ic? It must be.

Funny how it went from. "lets checkout some grows, and growers"...
to..

"Lets help the police raid some growers!"

STRAIGHT UP. That's how it went.

I thought it was honestly a buncha bullshit.

 

[f1auto]

they followed the police busting a few grows anyway. It was one of the most boring things to watch "lets meet this *bampot kid, who has a problem with cannabis, he used it and he has an asbo for committing robberies, lets talk to him about his use of cannabis"

and "lets meet *bawbag kid no2 who gets paranoid and cant look people in the eye and blames it all on cannabis...... and still uses cannabis" lol

that narrator/eastenders actor who was talking to the cops/cannabis users should stick to soaps that i will never watch

 

[Bi0hazard]

When the home office demand a list of everyone involved in the making of this documentary, under threat of imprisonment, what form of protection would you, yourself, have against it? In the absense of such protection, why would you expect people to believe that you would not turn over such a list?

Key question!

 

[f1auto]

I would hope the home office would not use such tactics

 

[mosstrooper]

The guys a tit, he's been all over other forums, I think UK420 showed him the door and rightly so, BBC only ever make propaganda for the government

I couldnt agree more, my expectation would be that they will shmooze you all the way through and ream you hard when its shown on the box.

I dont trust the BBC one bit.

[TrichyTrichy]

TY!
The second segment has him speaking to gangstars..like to see that.

 

[f1auto]

was that the documentary, doc-u-maker was looking for volunteers from? the same one? if it was all I can say is its a pretty shit documentary telling us nothing we've not already known for years

and why was that mupped who had just bought all that growing gear going through what he has spent, and showing his (pretty unhealthy spindly) plants with his mug right over national TV. Is he asking be busted? unbelievable

 

[connoisseur 420]

the first programe was not bad

def one of the beter docs on canabis over the last 10 years with both sides of the coin

but 2nd part took all the good away
pure bullshit,propaganda and young imature kids smoking weed

what a joke

we need someone like us to make a proper documnetary that is from the smokers/growers point of view

 

[STUPPA]

Yeah we need something a little more empowering like this film, and just because it gives facts does'nt mean it is biased (although it prob is biased )
