this stuff is added in holland or the uk befor being shipped here. the reality is there is not much proper weed around so people smoke crap ,soap bar has been around for years and people are still smoking it ,why i dont know ,it makes me ashamed to be irish when i see or smell a fellow irishman smoking this shit ,human weakness is a terrible thing ,if it doesnt get you high whats the fucking point people. oh and i seriously doubt the goverment has anything to do with it ,impuriies are added during flower ,buds are sprayed with water and the crap sticks.as the plant flowers it pulls the shit inside and grows around it. i think its glucose as well ,tastes sweet.

im not sure on the source of it, whether its just dealers or huge crime syndicates but it doesnt matter. the problem is that a lot of people in the UK wouldnt know good quality from bad quality and just keep the people selling this stuff in business with a high profit.

Globalchill what is the concensus of opinion over there; is this put in by dealers or forces unknown? It seems very odd. I have never seen an instance of this and I have been smoking a long time. I am assuming our people are just as greedy as yours. Your dealers know you guys hate auduterated weed so why do they add unknown quantities of whatever. After all they can only raise the weight so much before it looks totally bogus. Do you feel there is a possibility your government is doing this?
I would have to agree with mythikle - I am pretty sure it is added before it is imported by the criminal gangs in Europe whether that be Amsterdam or Spain. It was Spanish gangs who were turning nice hashish into adulterated soapbar simply to profit. My gut feeling and from reading various news reports on grow busts in the UK is that there seems to be a lot of Vietnamese gangs operating, renting out houses and turning every room into a grow room. They are simply in it for profit and hurry the growing process any way they can. I would not be suprised if it is these gangs putting the shit on the weed.
Also I don't really think they are adding these substances for weight but more to make the weed look better. They harvest early, dry it quickly with heat and then spray glucose etc on the premature buds making it sparkle with "trichomes".
It is not local dealers adding this stuff, one of my closest friends of over 10 years is a main local dealer and he is refusing to buy the stuff off suppliers. Now maybe he is different because he is a long time toker, I'm sure there is the odd wee hood trying to make his crop look better.
Glebezone I'm not too familiar with Ontario and the supply of weed there, but I'm guessing going by the whole Canadian scene you would have quite easy access from various sources, and supply would outstrip demand?? Over here supply in the whole country over the last year has been extremely limited, without a good contact you are screwed. As sick puppy mentions the majority of the people in the UK and Ireland don't know what they are smoking and wouldn't even bother to check. They have and continue to smoke soapbar - the contaminated green is just the same. They dont know better so they buy it. If the public keep doing this then the gangs will keep supplying it - easy money for them and bad toke for us.
I don't think the government have anything to do with it, they are just turning a blind eye or are not interested. They dont want us smoking cannabis so I can see them worrying about contaminated weed, sure look how long it took them to get the public health message out! However I do feel somewhat that the US government maybe are pushing the UK government on cannabis and other laws as they are elsewhere around the world. There has been an awful lot of anti marijuana propaganda this year and scaremongering with stories of violence and mental issues. I have never noticed in previous years such prevalence of this type of news story leaving me a little suspicious.
Typing all this has actually got me very pissed off and angry. All this is caused by prohibition. Wrong, wrong, wrong, I'm off for a bong.
