    Default How do you know if it's good?

    I have what will seem a really stupid question. How do you know if pot is good quality or not?

    I ask because I got a little bit the other day (literally, it's enough to fill a pipe like once and 1/2, that's it), and have no idea if it's good stuff or not. Can you tell I dont do this regularly? lol

    All my ignorant butt can tell is the following:

    -it's got a couple colors of green in it
    -it's super dense
    -it smells very sweet
    -doesnt have a bunch of stems

    Anybody give me a few clues on if I got junk or not?

    lol, yeah, i know, but the thing is i'm saving it for sharing with someone at the end of the month, and dont have enough to test it out. I think it's decent stuff, i trust the guy i got it from, but, i dunno, i feel like such a noob, lol. I mean, we're going to try it either way, but I figure it couldn't hurt to see if the ladies on here had some knowledge they'd be willing to share

    If it's multi-colored, really dense, smells sweet and doesn't have lots of stems it sounds pretty good to me! Bonuses are if it is very dark-colored, especially if it has a purple stain running through it, and if you can smell it through the baggie from like several feet away.

    I second anomar's suggestion, though.

    ETA: Oh, you're not gonna smoke it until the end of the month? :-( It will be less potent by then.

    Don't stress about it and store it somewhere airtight (like a little jar), not in a ziploc bag. When you do smoke it just relax and have things around to create the environment you want like a fun toy or game.

    waiting will make it less potent? Hmmm...will the storing it in an airtight container (as per suggestion) help keep it from going bad?

    *runs to take it out of plastic baggy* lol

    Well, the longer you wait to smoke it the more it dries up. It will weigh less than when you first bought it, and you have to pack more of it into the bowl to get the same hit. If you store it someplace airtight then it will dry out more slowly.

    However, I still have some that I bought 5 months ago, and it still does the job even though it is pretty dry! Yours should be fine even if you wait a month, just a bit drier than it is right now.

    Yeah, the dryness will primarily effect the texture of the plant, the THC content that gets you high will not evaporate or anything.

    crystals. If you can see that the leaves and hairs are covered in crystals, it's semi-moist but not too heavy, orange hairs, white hairs, purple hairs, no stems, no seeds, NOT premature (no big dark green little leaves, very dense), smells green and fresh and once you hit it you get an automatic high feeling....it's good. Price isn't indicative of quality unless you know your hookup and he/she won't rip you off.

    lol, great stuff!

    No seeds, or very few as far as i can tell. cant see a lot of crystals, but it fits the rest of the descriptions, so i'm guessing it's decent stuff. yay

    I heard about munchies. Never got them before, but I've also only gotten high once before, and barely, lol.

    I coughed a ton the one time i did it before, but, I also had never smoked anything before, not even a cig, so i sort of attributed it to that.

    As for keeping it fresh....
    Go to a website that specializes in pipes. Tobacco pipes.
    Invest in a humidor.
    If you don't want to spend that much then buy a humidor disk.
    You won't ever have herbage that dries out and gets less potent.

    Or so i've been told.

    It's good if you can smell it from your hiding spot in an entirely other room and if you get high really quick. That's my judge of that.

    Wow! Can you really order pot from that site? I'm not even a smoker, but I'd try some of the varieties on there.
