Worst bud you've ever smoked?

I’ve had every type of bad cannabis imaginable and then some. 40 years of “buying” I have seen and had more than my fair share of the poorest quality cannabis on the market. But ascetics aside the ‘worst’ bud I can recall looked and smelled good and was indeed very potent, however the effect was terrifying to me. Back in the late 70s I was living in Del Ray beach FLA and had a really good contact that got all the exotic cannabis around at the time. I would constantly get really nice Colombians and Jamaican’s as well as tasty far away treats like Afghan black hash and chocking red Lebanese. However one time he had this funky black Vietnamese, which he claimed was the strongest weed on the planet. I had to try it and found out the hard way what he was talking about. It looked like Thai weed, long stringy, dark seeded flowers with a faint spicy sweet scent. I only bought a half a lid due to it being so expensive but the dealer said that it would last me a month it was so strong. He recommended that I only take one hitters from a bong till I got use to it. I tore off a small flower and squeezed out a few seeds and loaded up his bong. Took a little hit with no coughing and no instant effect so I hit it really hard the next time clearing the bowl. As soon as I exhaled I felt like I was going to black out. As soon as I recovered from the hit it kicked in, like a rocket ship take off. I was sweating and my hands felt shaky and clammy as my heart really started racing. Everyone else there thought it was hilarious that I was greening out but just like a bad acid trip I was sinking in paranoia and was hoping it would pass quickly. It didn’t, in fact the terror intensified and really felt bad. This was the first time weed ever made me feel that way and it scared me but the next day I tried the black again this time in a pin joint. And although not as intense, it just made me feel bad and it was ridiculously potent, lasting for hours. Worst weed I ever had by far, I called it “terror weed” at the time.

Vietnam Black had exactly the same effect on me.

Like a bad acid trip.

I wound up in a tree looking for an owl to save me.

Good times lol

Intake was placed in a laundry room, where the house occupants used loads of fabric softener. Didn't even get half a hit and had to exhale and pass the pipe. Was worse than all the other types of crappy cannabis I've come across.

F'ing gross.

I've known people to use dryer sheets to mask the smell of weed during transport and it ruins it because it smells and slightly tastes like the sheets unless seperated well in bags

During the worst drought ever, at the peak of Bush Sr.'s war on drugs ramping up, there was just NO weed to be found anywhere.

Three weeks into this, someone says they have some for sale. Of course, we got some.
Got home and the brickweed was brown and desiccated. Rolled a bone and passed it around, each of us making the most amazing gag faces. It tasted like if you flipped the leaf litter over in a damp forest, dried the dark slimy leaves and then smoked it.

So bad we threw the bag in the toilet. $50 for that shit.

Luckily, someone else we knew took a train to New Mexico and came back with a QP of Acapulco Gold, a bunch of larfy looking little buds, but it was cheap.
You could roll the tiniest joint with it and by the time you got to the 3rd pull, you were high as hell. We made that shit last as long as possible and then things got better.


I can't remember the last time I've had Mexican brickweed. It was sometimes really good, most times just OK but it was all we had.

Then... In the early 90s Canadian hydro started showing up. Then Skunk No.1, Afghani and the floodgates opened!

Serious Seeds Chronic about 15 years ago. It was my biggest yielder, big rock hard, beautiful nugs that with the aroma of hay with wet grass. when burning a vague sweaty sock scent filled the room. Did get me wasted though. Ran it a couple of times to see if their cure instructions were at fault (no cure, they say dry it completely before jarring) and after a couple of months it just became weaker, still hay/grass/socks but less so, more nothing at all.

I wanted AK47 but some PRICK talked me into Chronic. Ive done it too... chosen shite but always at lest respectable. Chronic was embarrassing to break out in front of people.

I know it wasn't my selection either as it was same on all of them first go and they were very homogenous.

It's been way too long since I've had any AK. One of my all time favorites.

A friend of mine was living in a house his mother owned with an uncle and brother in law. Eventually the uncle and brother in law moved back to Ohio, and he inherited the house when his mother died. I was helping him clear out a shed, and we found about a half pound of weed his uncle has stashed and forgot about. At one time it was decent Mexican (not brick, but decent buds). The rats had found it and ate a lot of the seeds and of course they shit in it.

We laid it out on a table and picked out the rat shit and hair and whatnot and bagged it up for sale. When people asked if it was any good, he would say "yeah, it's pretty good shit!" We didn't smoke any of it, so I don't know what it was like, but nobody bitched and at least one person came back for more.
