it has a very strong berry smell

so strong that if i have it in a room, then take it out, room will continue to smell for awhile.

The bud is moist, which makes it more suspect.

It's very unnatural smelling

anyone seen this before? know what they may have sprayed it with?

:badday:
 
Does it feel sandy to the touch/if you bite it?
It might have been coated with mirror particles etc and then sprayed with scented hairspray to look as if it were better quality.

Stinky buds have never been a problem for me.........

Stinky buds have never been a problem for me.........

Some buds might smell a bit chemically if they were not flushed well. As for stinking, the buds I grow smell up the entire house for awhile after the jar is sealed.

I can't think of a reason anyone would spray herb with anything...... It might just be buds that were not dried fully

Hope all is well after you smoke it ;)

no, Goodstuff, its definitely dank, but some ass must have sprayed it with something to try and impress noobs w/ the berry smell...

sharp, people would probably spray it w/ something to impress a noob w/ the strong berry smell so the could go around saying they have blueberry weed or something

its a very unnatural smell like i said, i just don't think it is from not getting flushed or something
 
I dunno then - I wouldn't smoke it. If you got it from someone you know then ask them about it. Maybe there's a good explanation for it.

Easy solution: Offer a friend of yours a free bowl of it.

If they don't get sick and/or die, it's totally cool for you to smoke it.

:smoweed:

AFAIK the primary reason for spraying bud with anything is to inflate its value in one of three areas: look (fake trich's as others have already mentioned), smell (also already mentioned), and IMO the most important -- weight (spraying it with something to keep it damp and wet will make it weigh more, so they can charge a higher price).

hard to say from just a description, but I have seen dealers spray weed with air freshner to give it a strong smell, like apple or berry air freshner. not something I'd want to inhale

I've grown, smoked, seen and above all smelled buds that if I didn't know any better would have been sure, were sprayed with somthing....but, sometimes really good herb stinks to hell and back like nothing else in nature. I had a lemon skunk clone some years back that smelled just like lemon pledge.

all sorts of different aromas come from dope, in differing degrees iof pungency.... stickyness doent denote having something sprayed on it.... odours ion plants are made up ofr millions of different chemicals, that occur in multitudes of combinations and all sorts of extremee smells can be found.... the freshness will explain the smell being strong-it always stinks more wet than dry.... unless the stickyness is like honeydew type residue and you can hear the weed fizzing or it wont burn properly to a nice white ash and leaves hard black crap behind i wouldnt sweat it.....
nerry smells havent been associated with the grit-weed either so i think youll be safe there.

yeah but it's also possible that some asshole spraid it with air freshner to make it smell like "berry' I"ve seen some dealers do that....not on my weed.

I also know of a guy that kept bubble gum inside bags of weed for a while to make them smell like bubblegum.

Im guessing someone probally tossed some gum in the bag. A couple years back I saw quite a few bags of buddies with little sticks of gum. I believe its Trident, Berry something. Id put money on it someone did that.

Yeah, Sounds like Tasty Puff. I tried it out. It sucks. Will make your first rip taste like S~~T, and then it goes down hill from there. Wont kill you to smoke a little but I would for sure punch your dealer in the face.
