- mortenjorck 16y agoIs cannabis routinely cut, as hard drugs are? I can't imagine it would be terribly hard to find similarly-burning vegetation to dilute the amount of product in a fixed-weight bag at a level undetectable to the average buyer.
- avar 16y agoNo, that's one of its advantages. It's pretty much impossible to "cut" it. This is what a cannabis bud looks like: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Macro_cannabis_bud.jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Macro_cannabis_bud.jpg You can't just throw some similarly looking vegetation in there without the buyer noticing. You could throw in low-grade hemp, but that's just as hard to grow, so it's of no benefit to the dealer. One thing you can do is to not dry it. The moisture will add a bit of weight, but probably not more than 5-10% more, depending.
- sophacles 16y agoThis is sort of built into the quality scaling tho. Properly dried (not too dry, not too wet) fetches a higher price than what the difference in weight for lower quality offers.
- Alex3917 16y agoYou can use fertilizer and pesticides to artificially increase your yields, which is basically just as bad depending on what's being used.
- code_duck 16y agoSure, that works out about the same as 95% percent of the produce sold and used at restaurants in the US, though.
- Someone 16y ago"You could throw in low-grade hemp, but that's just as hard to grow, so it's of no benefit to the dealer." I am not sure about that. Shouldn't low-grade hemp be cheaper in areas where it can be grown legally? After all, the risk of losing a harvest to law enforcement is lower.
- muhfuhkuh 16y agoI've read that, in the UK, unscrupulous dealers have been spraying their dried bud with sugared water to add weight. They've also been selling something FAR more dangerous called "grit weed", which has been impregnated with glass dust or microbeads that resemble Cannabis terpines or "crystals" and also add considerable weight, but is basically fiberglass when inhaled.
- jason 16y agoI have heard of people using hairspray to weigh it down. Turning shwag to the sticky icky.. at least enough to fool high school kids.
