UK: Man grew strongest ever cannabis



BBC News


Tuesday 17 Oct 2006


---
A man has admitted growing what police described as the strongest
cannabis ever found in the UK.

David Wyler, 55, of Poplar Avenue, Nottingham, admitted producing
cannabis and possessing the drug as well as possessing amphetamines.

Tests on 500 cannabis plants seized at a house in Ilkeston, Derbyshire,
showed they were the strongest ever found in the UK, Derby Crown Court
was told.

Police believe he made £500,000 out of drugs. Wyler will be sentenced later.

The house in Ilkeston was entirely given over to producing cannabis
plants, the hearing was told.

Test carried out by forensic scientists on the plants showed the THC
content, a measure of the drug's strength, was 29%. The normal reading
for cannabis is 12%.

Police seized £30,000, which was in the possession of Wyler, along with
three cars.

The article I read said it was a strain he cultured. - So it's probably safe to call it Wyler bud since he's in jail. I'd love some Wyler bubble.....how about some Wyler x G13, it would be killer. $500 per ten pack...how bout some Blue Wyler for sure!!!!!!! Just kIDDING gUYS.
 
Hopefully he gave a clone or some seed to a friend. If not, it's back to the breeding when he gets out. That is to say IF he is a truly motivated ganja fan......and he must be!

He had 500 plants so he's probably cash croppin too. As the article stated, "The house in Ilkeston was entirely given over to producing cannabis plants."
They could have stretched the test results to stiffin the charges a bit. They like to step on the Big doggs,....especially in Nottingham :fsu:

hmmm... I really don't know about one hitting and quiting. I've tried an assortment of crystally hairy buds from just about every warm province in canada, and none of it could defuse me in one. more like 5-6. Although I've never had the pleasures of g13 or Nevilles haze.

bunch of bs never believe the thc percentages they state. 29 percent would mean almost 1\3 of a bud would be thc

Why did he admit anyway? Yeah don't believe the percentages, I mean, what do people know actually and what do people say, trust your instincts and common sense, truly, 1/3 of the bud can't be THC, I doubt if 1/3 of the trichomes themselves is pure THC. I am looking at some bud right now and I don't think it is logical.

29% is close to what they have claimed in the past to have tested in Alaska too.

Bear in mind that ^% is one of the current primary battle cries of the prohibitionists right now; from D.C., to Calif., to the UK, to Holland, to..... it's the same ol' shit.

There are methods for skewing these tests either up or down.

And even -if- a bud tested remotely -near- 29%, you can bet your arse that it was a cola from the tippy-top of the perfect plant, and that the rest of the buds on that -one- plant had a hard time rating anywhere near the same.

The cops want to paint a pic of cannabis that's equivalent to heroin; it helps to deter legalization.

good call on that moose eater. ithink this article was under dicussion here a few weeks ago, though i could be wrong or confusing this site with CC or UTG or something. anyway, on one hand, they make higher percentages make it sound more dangerous, but does it matter how high the percentage is if its not dangerous in the first place? and then they try to use the argument it messes with your lungs even though nobody has proven cannabis alone messes with your lungs, only when combined with tobacco and other shit. so a higher percentage of thc would decrease the amount of material you must smoke to get high so its safer for the lungs........think about it

29 % of the active ingredients of cannaboid profile is THC, not 29% of the plant.

Go back a couple of issues of Skunk, Heads, CC, I am not sure, but there is an article in there, an interview with Robert Clarke, that he is workin with strains with profiles as high as like 90+% of THC. I can't find mine to reread but I remember it was something crazy. He said it was being used under liscense for one of his studies. That also tells ya that it is a propietary or patent strain held by one of the big pharma's

Dr. Hornby as some gas chomographs of some way higher that 29% as well, check the AN site, I think you can find him there.

NIDA had test results on hash from the early 70s or 80s (I don't recall which right now, as I was driving most of the night, returning home... Watch that sleep deprivation stuff!! Talk about short-term memory loss!!! Whew!! ;^>) ) that stated a level of THC in -some- Afghani black gum hash samples of around 70%+ as well.

The prohibitionists leave out discussion of the 'self-titration' issues.

In somewhat perfect analogy, yes, Everclear and other forms of pure grain alcohol will mess you up quickly, but persons rarely put 12 oz. of them in a chilled can and guzzle it on a sunny day in the same way that they might with their favorite ale.

But the various Drug (bi-)Czarrs don't like to be reminded of that....
