East Coast MIDGRADE SMOKE REPORT

lune tns- Well, maybe it's because i am around educated people. Not trying to sound all high and mighty, but my dealers are my friends. I am very close with them, i never get fucked over and i never fuck any of them over.

Bounty- well i am fortunate to have good dealers. If you were to say kindbud is awesome, you would be laughed at if you hung around the same people i do. Just because your area has those slang terms, doesn't mean it is the set standard. Don't try and act like you know everything. Giving me bad rep is also childish, do you get this mad everytime someone else has a different opinion?

where i've been kind bud and headies mean the same thing, and yes there is alot of good bud out there where the dealer doesn't know what strain it is because as was said before alot of growers aren't dealers and they just dump their stuff on the middle men and don't talk alot about it.And no the shit i buy isn't canadien its from floyd county virginia and if you've ever been there you'd know they grow a shitload of good weed.
 
I'm not saying that unknown strains are always bad, i just am use to honest connects who know there stuff. I have been fucked too many times in the past, to want to deal with people that i can't trust. It's a shame, because there are too many people out there who only care about money. I now have dealers i can trust, and know that i will be getting what i pay for, the bags are always exact, even to the 1/10th of a gram. I live in a not too great city though, too many junkies and shady people trying to make a quick buck. I can't even count the number of times i've gotten lied too about bud, and half the time the bags would way alot less than what they were supposed to.

Hello ALL!!!

Didn't realize that anyone responded. :joint:

As far as name designations, it is different everywhere. But for some reason, around here when you say a name you KNOW what you are getting. I would have to agree with Bounty on the names, EXCEPT i have NEVER heard of merch, and around here beasters are very commercially grown, usually indica dominant hybrids, usually grown using hydro, and almost ALWAYS are poorly trimmed, harvested early (tell by the yellowish even sometime white hairs!!!), overall poorly grown. In fact, when you buy beast around here you have to expect it to be atleast partially wet (i.e. not cured) or just soaking and quite disgusting, it try to stay away. Also the fact that it sounds like BC, IMO does not mean it comes from Canada. In fact I know someone personally that sells beasters and said that its produced on a huge scale in warehouses in the US as well, he thought the beasters he had were coming from somewhere around the VA and NC border. But who knows, right?

But, Schwag has always meant the dirties, worst marijuana one can buy. WAYYYYYYYYY worse than mids, and not even same league as beasters, headies, or hydro. And in my opinion, kindbud is mostly distinguished by the fact that its grown as sensi, most of the time, and includes beasters, hydro (good hydro), and headies/homegrown. Just what I have picked up around here.

Anyway, this thread has gotten off topic? Does anyone have any smoke report, preferrably with pics, to show us? Then you can actually show what mids look like in your area, instead of trying to explain it. :rasta:

Peace

DONCOSMIC!!!!

Didn't even see you there buddy :joint:

Lol Ive been to Floyd Fandango a couple of times. I bet you get better hookups than me, cuz i'm originally from the north (a big city) and around here its hard to find a steady, HONEST priced, quality hookup. Especially during the summer, you might be able to figure out why that is in my area ;). Anyway, i guess your not smoking on mids then :bashhead:.

oh i don't live there, i sure wouldn't have mentioned it if i did, i just developed some connections there when i was going to school in your area, and yes my first few years there i smoked plenty of the standard blacksburg mids, but then i found better people who had better weed, and though i am up north of there now i still smoke the same stuff
 
prima- exactly, different places have different names. I'm not saying unnamed headies isn't bad, i've boughten plenty. But i usually smoke it and get to check it out before hand, and it's from people i can trust. I got some unnamed headies today, and i'll post come pics and maybe a smoke report. It's top quality headies, looks like the UK cheese i've tried, diesely skunky smell. Smells like cheese, as the UK cheese i got did. Dried and cured perfectly, LOADED with crystals, flushed properly. Has a soft lemony skunky taste kind of like ECSD. I got 7.2 grams (weighed out) for $80, it's full dryed and cured and it's kind of fluffy so it looks more like 10-12 grams when you eye it.

I don't have a smoke report, but I got 10.5g of that for $100, and it was well worth it. That'd fall into the mids category around here, which, if I have to pay for buds, is what I go for.
 
Here's some bud i've gotten recently. Hope the threadstarter doesn't mind, i just figured i'd share some pics.

Afghani (from cali clone, i paid $350 a zip)

Unknown strain (got it today, paid $75 for 7.2g. Seems like the uk cheese i've tried, or skunk #1)

184357.jpg


184358.jpg


184359.jpg



Pot of Gold (purple pheno, i paid $355 a zip)

184362.jpg


Hindu Kush (supposedly from a cali cut also. i got 2.4g for $30)

184363.jpg


184365.jpg


Durban Poison (decent, not that great but i only paid $275 a zip)

184366.jpg


Trainwreck bubble hash (paid $20 for 1g. very good hash)

Those are some nice nugs there sweet, and defiantly what would be considered as headies from my area. Bounty that would be considered the "beasters" in my area. Another thing people should take into consideration, just because they know the name, doesn’t mean they are right,. Someone with medo-core pot knowledge could look at something or after smoking, and tell you it indica, find a good strain on the net it looks like, and BAM you got the superdooperscooper. Just my thought anyways.

p.s. im not dogging on anyones thoughts, or pictures. There all weed and thats what matters :)

Awesome smoke report! +k

I also keep ALL of my bagseed that comes form anything that has a decent high to it. Taste I don't care about cuz the real taste will come out when I grow it. I have tried to catalog them but to no avail...they always end up getting thrown in a medecine bottle with the rest of the seeds. The bad thing is, I kept schwag seeds in 1 bottle & good mid seeds in another bottle BUT I got the bottles confused so everythign is mixed together now. By the way, I kept the schwag seeds to throw down in gov't bldg flower beds, parks etc, etc....OVERGROW!! LoL.

Anyway, my last (1st) grow was from some bagseed from Kentucky. It came out really nice, especially for my 1st grow. I have some pics during the grow but camera broke shortly after these pics were taken (approx 30 days 12/12). Got approx 1 1/4 off 1 plant grown in 2 18gal Rubbermaids. Here's a couple pics:





2nd grow (these are at 28 days 12/12....they r at 55 days now, more pics to come):




I have 2 plants going now. 1 is almost done & I've chopped a couple of smaller buds cuz I'm out. 2nd one smells like oranges but I've never smoked any weed from a dealer that smelled of oranges! Bagseed grow are always fun (if it turns out decent) cuz u never know what ur gonna get plus it's a really good way to get ur skills up.

Respect!

Yep, most people will lie to you. But my dealers are very close friends, most of it is grown from people i know. All the strains have been pretty dead on, as far as the strain name. And if they don't know the strain name, they will tell me flat out that it's an unknown strain, like the nugs shots i posted of the unknown strain.

Good pot is know as headies around here also, usually not by strain name. And 90% of the time, it's not headies. One give away is the smell, if you smell that grassy hay smell, that's a dead give away that it's beasters. I've seen some really frosty beasters that kids will try and sell as headies, but on a close examination you can easily tell it's not. I actually got some really frosty beasters yesterday for cheap, not for my head though. Looks great....until you smell/taste it lol.

Yeap that hay smell is a dead give away Sweet and the lack of trich coverage over the nugs. But you’re also right some of them come somewhat covered in trich but still the smells there, and the taste, well, isn’t. Normally beasters or my interpretation of beasters is what I smoke all the time, stuff like what I saw in bounty picture above. Man oh man id love to get my hands on some really good nugs, gotta take the trip to northern VT for that ive found(or wait tell harvest time). Great school/school’s lots of fun and great buds.
 
Yep, vt has great nugs...atleast for the east coast. I get alot of mine from cali also, even though i live on the coast. The afghani, pot of gold, and hindu kush were all from cali. The rest were boughten or grown around the NE area. New england has some pretty good cuts going around and certain strains that are special to around here like:

ECSD
Mass Super Skunk
NYCD
Several skunks and crosses, with lots of different names
Bubblegum (there are some good bublegum cuts that go around new england, the east coast, and certain parts of canada.)

ECSD and MSS are by far my favorite of the east coast strains, i'm sure you could score some fairly easily in VT.

Ive tried the MSS one time and thought that was a very nice herb. NYCD ive tried a hand full of times. I dont normally get lucky enough to get the good, probably taken care of herbs anymore, at onetime i had a very good connection for some awsome outdoor strains. But other then that, for about 3-4 years ive had to live off the beaster type stuff. I visist my cousin in cali once a year, thats the only time i get that kind of stuff. Im not a big grower, and i cant look at a plant and diagnose it lol, so i guess im not in that group of peeps :)

Thx stayhigh, nice looking plants. yea i don't think i have bought any name brand shit around here (i.e. in the US), especially not around VA/NC area. We get headies all the time but IMO it isnt anything special 80% of the time.I guess you gotta know the right people to get good hookups from cali or BC all the way out here.

Cheers
 
Yep, it's all in who you know. Making new friends who are into this kind of stuff is always a good idea. That's how i met most of the people i know, and now i don't have to worry about my bags being short. Or the bud not being what it's suppose to. or paying high prices, well i pay low prices considering i'm on the east coast. You just have to earn trust in someone, too many people care about money.
 
aish i wish i had some POG or afghani ....ill keep dreamin id say 90% of the time in the past 6 months all thats around has been mids and beasters. I hate beasters after living in florida fer half a year i refuse to buy it. I prefer mids any day. I never really see scwag er merch ne more these days. Missin' florida krippy thats fore sure Western ny is got to be the capital of beasters.
The mids i got right now is definetely sativa chilled heady high, no burnout. Has a nice brown sugary sweet smell to it one of the best batch of mids i've seen around in past months. Covered in trichs smokes really nice. Had about 4 seeds in a $40 dolla quarter.

Dont mean to rant about beast but people need to stop buying it and they will stop growing it. They realize ppl r dumb enough to buy kiefed wet chemical dirty bud .......they make a quick profit off it. I know a dude who gets it fer 145-150 the better shit goin fer 180-220. I've walked away satisfied buying beast mb 5 times in ive been buyin fer 4 years now.

ALL N ALL LETS BOYCOTT BEASTERS

Looks nice man. I'm in Central VA (38 degrees) and that looks a lot like what I get. It costs me $160 an ounce, but I know a guy who pays $130 and someone out in the county who sells for $80. It's definitely not a bad smoke. Doesn't taste too good, and it all has the same smell (either minty or really funky), but the sativa high is a nice change. My ounce had about 60 seeds in it so that works out to 5-10 seeds per/ eighth. Some people get indica mids which are usually uncompressed and probably grown within the states. They're not beasters (all the beasters I've seen have been seedless), don't smell anything like them, and usually have fewer seeds. It's all the same shit too, I can recognize it as soon as I taste it. The high is relaxing but not tiring, really nice.

Here's a breakdown of the terminology where I live:

Shwag - only had it once, we smoked like 5 or 6 bowls between three people and didn't even get a buzz. When we did have it, we paid 20 for 2.5 grams of high mids; it was three pretty decent-sized nugs, one of which was shwag. I think that's what most dealers do with their shwag, use it to weigh down bags.

Mersh - better than shwag, green and it'll get you high without a headache. There's usually a good amount of shake in the bag but it only runs me $35/quarter. Three bowls and your head's in the clouds on an average tolerance (I smoke like 5 times a week usually). Unfortunately, it too is kind of rare. Some people call it 'low mids'.

Middies - compressed, $20/eighth, some seeds but not a lot. It can vary, there are two main types here that I run into regularly: the minty harsh buds, which are indica or indica-dom, and the funky (I'd almost describe it as 'fishy') sativa mexicans.

High Mids - really the best deal out there. It can be as good as chron, just happens to have like 5 seeds in an ounce. $35/eighth. Mostly indica, only one time I bought mexican high mids and it was one of the best smokes ever. An eighth kept six or seven heavy smokers high all day. Too bad I lost the seeds (and there were a lot of seeds too).

Beasters - the beasters we get here are mostly pretty damn good. If you don't have any tolerance three hits will make you fall over. Still not my favorite, and definitely way more expensive than it's worth.

We hardly ever get named strains here, but when we do it's legit. This stuff called "Watermelon" came through once from North Carolina, I bet some of you have encountered it. There's also "Schuyler Skunk", but I haven't seen that in ages.
