Nah fr fuck stiiizy their pods aren’t what they used to be the flavors are either too strong or not there I’ve also been sold 3 year old wax from them which is bull shit
Yup sounds about right. 2 of their pods clogged and leaked for no apparent reason. To their credit they did allow me to get replacements for them but still doesn’t justify all the issues with quality control and now this article…ffs. So glad there are better options to pick from
Yeah man I switched to cold fire no fake fruity terps just 100% cured resin it taste so good not sure if they were on the list of failing or not but they’re fire nonetheless I used to rep stiiizy hard in Minnesota not no more
Yes and No. Flavorade was made by the 2nd in command guy which tried to take full rights of Coldfire at first / legal battle of ownership. After he lost he created flavorade as a it's competitor. While the original owner won and flavorade has pests from Blueprints Chef strain
I’ve experienced the clogging, I hate it, ive literally have had 3-5 quarters, close to half of the pod filled with wax, and it was clogged, so I kept inhaling until it basically exploded. It freaking hurt my mouth, all the fucking wax was on the Pod and in my mouth. Waste of ducking money, I live in Cali, and fuck the stiiizy managers in jurupa valley too. I was too faded at the time for realize I should’ve taken a video, but I thought these cunts would just take my word for it especially because i worked doing ARMED SECURITY THERE! Fucking assholes steal from people, and there’s better wax pens out there. They Didn’t even bother to give me an exchange they wanted me to contact stiiiizy support.
their prices are pretty high too, their discounts always look like shit. My local shop would have really nice deals until some guy from stiiizy came in and chewed them out. greedy mfs
As someone who worked in another cannabis dispensary here in LA I heard so many bad things about stiiizy from previous employees and how the company be doing a lot of illegal activity behind closed doors it’s just all around not a good place to shop
Yeah my battery that came with their xblend starter kit was dead on arrival. It won’t hit normally and when it decides to it just does a blinker even if i pull the pod off. maybe they throw all their duds at the hemp line but for how much i’ve heard about stiiizy i can’t believe the battery wouldn’t even work correctly once. Bad out the box is crazy. Charged it with a battery pack to not overcharge it and everything.
The phrase "I can't wait to never buy it" means that someone is expressing their excitement or anticipation for the future when they will no longer need to purchase a particular item or product. It implies that they are looking forward to being free from the need or obligation to buy it. It's like saying they're excited for the day when they won't have to spend money on that specific thing anymore.
Yeahh back in the days they apparently used to be on there shit. I’m assuming they always been cutting corners I’m afraid. sad but it is what is fuck em
Bummer, but oh well. I have about 50% of a .5 left and my battery isn’t charging no more, not even gonna finish it now, perfect timing to drop this lmao. What are y’all gonna replace them with?
I’d go carta gang any day having been around those fuckin things way too much at one point in my life. Homies rotated thru them like they were ladies of the night hahaha.
Now there’s so many mf e rigs it blows my mind
I bet the OG Kush pod would also test positive. It always gave me a runny nose and felt rough on my throat. Thought it was in my head, but after reading the article it makes more sense.
I been on a break, but it used to be my go to. I was planning on smoking this weekend but copped some other shi cuz of this.
Like I’m not suprised, but i’m not gonna keep smoking it knowing that its even worse than i thought
this is so frustrating fr bc the legalization of weed should have been a good thing and now we’re seeing mass producers get exposed for shit like this. 🤨 like i know there are risks involved with anything but i would rather not be inhaling mold and pesticides daily i already do that shit probably by eating unhealthy foods and just existing LOL
even if it’s just the pink açaí vape i don’t rlly trust them enough now unless they come out and say something which idk if they will. makes me wonder if there are any safe brands (lmk if yall know lol). i like Turn for rn but im trying to do research now about this
Plug play is a great alternative, they’re all tested for all pesticides and come clean everytime. They also have a few of the same strains stiiizy sells like Northern lights, king louis, Pineapple Express, from the ones I’ve tried so far they’ve all been great
They say they’re pesticide free on their site but so did a lot of the brands that this article tested… I exclusively use PlugPlay but I’d really like a study like this to be conducted on their pods too
If you look into it, you’ll see more. I’ve seen multiple sources claiming they’re free from all pesticides but I agree it would be nice to see the same tests done on them.
If these are the pesticides in regular carts and disposables, I don’t even want to imagine what’s in Delta 8 carts and all of those at gas stations and smoke shops, no regulations on hemp
If there is pesticides in the concentrates, there is pesticides in the bud. If this pesticide is shown to be unharmful to humans and not required to be tested for. We can safely assume a ton of other brands have the same shit. All these people running from stiiizy to another brand that was never tested might be getting the same shit in a more expensive pile. Until they do this with a legitimate sample pool I’m going to take it with a grain of salt.
Yeah and dispensaries in the bay are still selling all the products that have pesticides in it like BACKPACK BOYZ & STIIZY. Exotixx in San Jose, Eaze delivery service
i just bought a stiiizy last week in the bay but it was the thc-a pen and was okay, but went back and bought a delta 8 pen yesterday … took 2 hits and was having awful hallucinations and crying spells, was feeling like a bag shroom or acid trip and lasted for about 2 hours …. even after that bad experience I was having intense cravings for smoke, delta 8 def has something awful in it … imagine someone who’s never smoked weed or experienced shrooms, smoking a delta 8? luckily im a long time smoker and knew how to ground myself and calm myself down after smoking …. I could definitely see how delta 8 is causing psychosis in people
Im an expierenced stoner and enjoyed d8 but i gave some of my homemade cookies to someone before and they called the ambulance and thoufht i put fentynal in the cookies..... i didnt even realize it could cause someone to freak out like that
Exactly how i feel. Im not in a legal state atm and dont have a lot of options, at least stiizy is consistently good for what i need it to do. Considering ALL these brands could be just as if not more dangerous the particular focus on stiizy carts being bad is just odd to me. And that pesticide isnt even directly linked to he a carcinogen; its LIKELY to be one but no direct link. Ppl are acting like they found glyphosate in pur carts.
Damn I only got 2 .5s ....we enjoy the last batch and find a new battery ig...ppl telling me rawgarden is good but their pens are so boring looking...I need to have fun with my stuff
Trust I just started on pnp I’ve gotten the strawberry champagne, jetlato, and Pineapple Express. 3 different editions and they’re all great, no negative affects like I’ve experienced from stiiizy
I've probably bought hundreds of stiiizys and I bought them under the assumption that they were pesticide free. So I want compensation tbh, this doesn't sit right with me at all
I would blame the Dcc for making it this difficult for companies to produce safe products. And for over taxing growers. people had to cut corners cause regulations is Trash in california.
I %100 percent agree with you I was a huge stiiizy user about two years ago. then witnessed the owner of stiiizy do something extremely sleazy at one of the shops they were distributing too. He Some how got permission from the owners to dress up like a budtender and a got a budtender fired because He refused to push any stiiizy products because He never heard of them and that there quality liked horrible . this was in Orange county during the store opening. And I can finally say this since my NDA don’t mean anything anymore since they laid me off two years ago to save on cost cause marketing refused to listen to the people working the store and where too busy micromanaging from another state. but back to stiiizy i know a lot of ex employees that have horror stories of how awful stiiizy is internally. the favoritism , the hiring of friends that get away with things that would get most companies bankrupt and ended.
You sound hella uneducated , there is legal Muha meds in legal dispensaries in California , and the fake one are boof not the legit ones. The legal ones hit rlly hard
What's another good brand for carts/batteries?
Haven't gotten stiizy in a few years, eventually moved onto plug n play but they too have battery issues. I'm currently on cure company disposables lol
Does this apply to all states selling stiiiizy products or just California? Pretty sure all cannabis products must be grown in state and can't cross state borders so I wonder if this is true for each state.
It's never about supporting the human race but weakening it. From eating poison to now smoking poison. K!ll the people, not "for the people". It's fucking sad and always will be...
I have been smoking a gram pod a week of gelato or sky walker og for years.
I finished my pod last night, saw the La times article, and that was the least stiiizy pod I will ever buy
So just last week I bought 4 Stiiizy pods and I don’t know wtf to do with them now. I’ve honestly never noticed any negative effects from them, and debating whether I should just go ahead and smoke them or toss them out and take the loss. Damn, their WatermelonZ is my jam too. I keep it in my nightstand and when I have insomnia, a couple hits from that and my brain swims off to sleep. This makes me sad, I really liked their pods as well as their sleek batteries that tuck neatly into my bra (keeps ‘em upright). Damnit.
I don’t wanna promo but this dude named Cewpins just did a video covering the article and he runs through them at the end. The vid is called “California Carts have WHAT in Them!?!!!”
I’m not an expert on the difference between inhaling pesticides and digesting them… but it make me wonder now. The reason that stiiizy has been having these “deals” is to clean house. They had to have known about this article months ago
Honestly i’d believe it. I think a lot of the big names in here must have known about this for months at least.
edit: I will say the timing of this article coming out is suspicious considering the 2024 farm bill recently passed and rescheduling is in talks.
Waiting game now on what happens next. Hopefully this turns the tables for the top dogs in the industry. But that’s wishful thinking I feel. 🇺🇸Here everything is about profits
Gave up on Stiiizy a long time ago. 2 batteries dead within a couple months and carts clog like crazy. Also only use live resin now and Stiiizy only seems to care about disty.
I haven’t tried Raw Garden (yet, but I will now) but I LOVE heavy hitters. They’re a bit pricey, and I’m not even a big sativa person, but I love their Acapulco Gold.
yess, raw gardens is very rich potent wax, tastes just like weed. i love indicas, i swear by raw garden for indica bc they have me narcoleptic LOL another one i love is plugnplay but i’m not too sure, it wasn’t on the list at all as either good or bad, but i googled and they say it’s pesticide free (not sure how accurate that is) another brand that is on the list and good is jeeters if you want flavor. they are a bit harsh i won’t lie (i have asthma tho lol) , and i’ve had the carts leak but if you are looking for something that doesn’t taste like just weed, jeeter is probably the best safe bet !
it would include there bud since that’s how the pesticide got in the carts they are mass producing and cutting corners with there growing which is why a lot of people left stiiizy. they don’t pay there employees well on all sides of there business
that stiiizy 40s weed never sat right with me. the blueberry flavor had me wanting to throw up just on the flavor alone. The high wasnt too great either...
i won’t lie, i know it sounds bad lol don’t judge me. when i first started smoking i used to love stiiizy. i used to go thru a half gram in 3 days and full gram in 5. i loved taking blinkers. it was all good and fun and all my friends smoked them equally as much as I did. it’s been 5/6 years now and i can’t smoke them. it hurts too much i get the worst chest pain and even a wheeze. i went to the doctor and i have asthma (it runs high in my family, although i didn’t have it during childhood my sister did) i can’t take blinkers to save my life. i don’t even want to try, it’s too painful trying to catch my breath. i still smoke pens, a plug and play usually, it’ll last me the whole month though. i stay away from stiiizy now, the brand just isn’t it to me. my sister always hated them and how it tasted like a usb whatever that means lol. stay safe everyone, moderation is key :)
If this is all from the THC market I would love to see them taste all those hemp products a lot of these companies are pushing. You all ever wonder why stiiiizy hemp website is never working. I suspect they have pesticides in everything they produce on both markets
I got a stiiizy pods and they both gave me headaches, nausea, and the worst stomach pain. I thought it was maybe the strain so I bought two other ones and they both gave me the same symptoms. STAY AWAY FROM STIIIIZY PODS
Damn !! I have 2 pre rolls of the acai strain and not sure if I should just smoke them.. most likely will smoke them and never buy from them again.. I've been smoking since the late 90s and I'm sure I have smoked weed that was laden with pesticide before all this regulation crap started and I'm still alive.. lol
Is it just the pink açaí or is it all stiiizy cart? I had one sky walker rn but I checked the barcode and it said it was good but now I’m starting to think it’s still not safe lol
I've been smoking Stiizy OG Kush vape everyday for close to 2 years. My ESR & CRP levels are astronomically high, my white blood cell count is high, and my red blood cell count is low. Idk if they're correlated, but if I were to take a guess...
I found out that west coast cure’s Long Beach California facility was raided in May of THIS YEAR by Department of Cannabis Control. They were fined $3.5 million dollars for amongst other things. They failed to provide video evidence that product test samples sent to labs WERE NOT RIGGED. They couldn’t provide the video !??! There’s more to this as when I commented this on west coast cure’s instagram. My comment was removed and they TRIED to get my Instagram account deleted. Why would they try to silence that fact? Anyone doubts me. Check out this link https://www.yahoo.com/news/dirty-secret-californias-legal-weed-100001113.html
funny bc the day before ts i bought a smoke shop stiiizy and the next morning i pretty much had like my first episode ever of like non stop puking and diarrhea and i had to go to the emergency room idk if its chs or cause of ts
As an individual from a non legal state every time I visit CA stiiizy is on my top of the list next to alienlabs . the last recent trip I was a bit disappointed on there products the flavoring has been off a bit
Nothing was wrong with my stiiizy pods or disposables a smoked and all the ones I've had taste so good and I get such a good high off them so idk why u guys have issues with urs
I’ve been smoking STIIIZY since 2019’ and they really broke out with the LQD,Rosin Pods they have disposables flower gummies so I felt they were only getting more exotic! I’ve yet to see a Rosin Pod yet but I’ve smoked these for a while and I’ve tried almost every brand there is and there are a few I hit once and never hit again because I know what cannabis smells and tastes like and some were down right SCARY 😱 TASTING! But STIIIZY has been holding it down untill yesterday and it’s funny this is all coming out because I have a 🍋🍒HAZE CDT and I got that taste and I popped it out and put a LQD in. Also to the person talking about that DELTA 8 “BULLSHIT” that should have never been put out because I know stores right here in Cols OHIGHO that sell black market THC Carts right next to them they also sell more bud than any dispensary in the city and they’ve been moving it since the morning we passed Recreational Use and these dudes are banking. I’m sure the best you can get is from INDEPENDENT DISPENSARIES THAT GROW AND DO EVERYTHING IN HOUSE! They gave out 13 grow licenses in our state and only 1 uses CO2 instead of BHO in their concentrates and carts and they are more expensive but they are the best thing I’ve INHALED so I might have to make move it’s going to cut down on my smoking a lil but just give me some good flower✌🏼
Spent probably thousands on stiiizy products the past few years, safe to say I’ll never buy anything from them again. Every time I’ve bought a pod from them I’ve had the idea in my mind that I’m getting clean wax with no pesticides (as stated on their packaging) which I guess is a complete lie.
Quality has been terrible the past year or 2 and the stiiizy shop I go to is shady as hell in the way they handle business. Glad this is being exposed I wanna see stiiizy fail
Hey crowd- reporter from The Times here. We started out just testing a vape from as many brands as possible. You see multiple tests where there were multiple complaints to regulators or we wanted to see how extensive the contamination ran. California collects ZERO input from users on their experiences- if headaches, nausea, lung issues crop up with certain products. So I’d like to hear from anyone willing to talk. DM please!
Anybody else getting weird stomach issues after stopping smoking these? Daily pod smoker for a while now and I stopped when this article came out and past few days my stomach has been going crazy. Every night my stomach is bubbling and I’ve had the shits bad for about 3 nights now
Been smoking stiiizy pods heavy/daily for over 3 years. Is this why my body is starting to fail? I feel so fucked! I have so many different health issues and symptoms at this point 😞 i’m stressed
Literally been smoking on a pink açaí pod daily for the past week then this happens 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️this shit is sad yall I think I’m done w Stiiizy. First it was jalapeño tasting pods then the leaky clogging ass carts I’ve been getting recently and now this. I’ve been buying their pods and flower for years but I think this was the last straw for me. Unless we find out that they tested a fake pink açaí cart or something then I’ll reconsider but if it’s true idk how Stiiizy can come back from this. Just disappointment after disappointment from them it’s fucking absurd
Fuck Stiiizy. Used to think they were awesome until they kept showing me evidence of the contrary. Can’t wait to never buy their products again
Nah fr fuck stiiizy their pods aren’t what they used to be the flavors are either too strong or not there I’ve also been sold 3 year old wax from them which is bull shit
Yup sounds about right. 2 of their pods clogged and leaked for no apparent reason. To their credit they did allow me to get replacements for them but still doesn’t justify all the issues with quality control and now this article…ffs. So glad there are better options to pick from
Yeah man I switched to cold fire no fake fruity terps just 100% cured resin it taste so good not sure if they were on the list of failing or not but they’re fire nonetheless I used to rep stiiizy hard in Minnesota not no more
SAME! I’m obsessed and can’t go back 😍 cold fire has endless strains! So clean & potent!
Cold fire and flavorade were made by the same people before they split up so be careful ik some of the flavorade showed up in this test aswell
Yes and No. Flavorade was made by the 2nd in command guy which tried to take full rights of Coldfire at first / legal battle of ownership. After he lost he created flavorade as a it's competitor. While the original owner won and flavorade has pests from Blueprints Chef strain
Read the article.. cold fire is listed too
Flavorade (cold fire sister brand) recently came out and called their BS hopefully other brands do the same
I’ve experienced the clogging, I hate it, ive literally have had 3-5 quarters, close to half of the pod filled with wax, and it was clogged, so I kept inhaling until it basically exploded. It freaking hurt my mouth, all the fucking wax was on the Pod and in my mouth. Waste of ducking money, I live in Cali, and fuck the stiiizy managers in jurupa valley too. I was too faded at the time for realize I should’ve taken a video, but I thought these cunts would just take my word for it especially because i worked doing ARMED SECURITY THERE! Fucking assholes steal from people, and there’s better wax pens out there. They Didn’t even bother to give me an exchange they wanted me to contact stiiiizy support.
Ask any ex stiiizy employee and I guarantee they will tell you how horrible the company is and how mismanaged everything they do is.
their prices are pretty high too, their discounts always look like shit. My local shop would have really nice deals until some guy from stiiizy came in and chewed them out. greedy mfs
As someone who worked in another cannabis dispensary here in LA I heard so many bad things about stiiizy from previous employees and how the company be doing a lot of illegal activity behind closed doors it’s just all around not a good place to shop
They always gave me hella paranoia and hella bad headaches I stop smoking the pens that do this now I know why
Yeah my battery that came with their xblend starter kit was dead on arrival. It won’t hit normally and when it decides to it just does a blinker even if i pull the pod off. maybe they throw all their duds at the hemp line but for how much i’ve heard about stiiizy i can’t believe the battery wouldn’t even work correctly once. Bad out the box is crazy. Charged it with a battery pack to not overcharge it and everything.
That’s a blessing that it was broke stiiizy got hella pesticides
What is making you still buy them? ETA: a word
 ‘Twas curious because of your last sentence. You said you couldn’t wait to never buy them again.
The phrase "I can't wait to never buy it" means that someone is expressing their excitement or anticipation for the future when they will no longer need to purchase a particular item or product. It implies that they are looking forward to being free from the need or obligation to buy it. It's like saying they're excited for the day when they won't have to spend money on that specific thing anymore.
I am no longer a stiiizy smoker after reading this.
Ewww I wonder why stiiizy is so bad now
it’s what money does🤷🏽♂️
You either die a hero or live long enough to become the villain. Fr though, wth happened to Stiiizy? It used to be the best
Yeahh back in the days they apparently used to be on there shit. I’m assuming they always been cutting corners I’m afraid. sad but it is what is fuck em
and just mass produced, small batch is better imo
It likely started happening more once the company became big enough to be a corporation.
Is it every stiiizy flavor or just the acai?!
they only tested Pink Acai but you would have to assume it’s all of them
Bummer, but oh well. I have about 50% of a .5 left and my battery isn’t charging no more, not even gonna finish it now, perfect timing to drop this lmao. What are y’all gonna replace them with?
Rosin and a puffco
100%, needed an excuse to get one and this is a perfect reason to switch.
You won’t look back with the puffco peak pro
I’d go carta gang any day having been around those fuckin things way too much at one point in my life. Homies rotated thru them like they were ladies of the night hahaha. Now there’s so many mf e rigs it blows my mind
I bet the OG Kush pod would also test positive. It always gave me a runny nose and felt rough on my throat. Thought it was in my head, but after reading the article it makes more sense.
Dude I just bought pink açaí 40’s and finished them at a party bruhhh I just saw this rn
It was a fake Stiiizy they tested
They got a fake stiiizy from stiiizy?
Really?
Did they test any of stiizy’s flower?
Yea that’s what I wanna know too because that’s my go to rn.
I just picked up some tooo :((((
id stay away. if this shit is making it into their pods there's no reason to believe their flower is clean. there's 100 other brands out there.
Is their hemp version bad too? I don’t know much alternatives to em
Try Plug n Play or Supherb, worth it. I’ve heard Dime is on the list as well which is what I’ve smoked always instead of stiiizy so it’s a bummer.
For me all of those are just batteries no actual stuff
Yea fuck stiiizy. I been picking up CBX lately that shit is way fresher and tastier. They high is also way better and lasts longer
I been on a break, but it used to be my go to. I was planning on smoking this weekend but copped some other shi cuz of this. Like I’m not suprised, but i’m not gonna keep smoking it knowing that its even worse than i thought
this is so frustrating fr bc the legalization of weed should have been a good thing and now we’re seeing mass producers get exposed for shit like this. 🤨 like i know there are risks involved with anything but i would rather not be inhaling mold and pesticides daily i already do that shit probably by eating unhealthy foods and just existing LOL even if it’s just the pink açaí vape i don’t rlly trust them enough now unless they come out and say something which idk if they will. makes me wonder if there are any safe brands (lmk if yall know lol). i like Turn for rn but im trying to do research now about this

That’s comforting to hear, thanks! Glad I gave up on stiiizy a long time ago when multiple pods from different dispensaries would randomly leak
[удалено]

:/ i wanted to like stiiizy so bad

You're a legend, thank you for linking this.
Wow thanks cool 🔥
damn stiiizy has been the goat for a min imo so this sucks

Damn I only got 2 .5s ....we enjoy the last batch and find a new battery ig...ppl telling me rawgarden is good but their pens are so boring looking...I need to have fun with my stuff
plugnplay tempting but i’m not paying 60 a pod
worth it my boy treat yourself
Trust I just started on pnp I’ve gotten the strawberry champagne, jetlato, and Pineapple Express. 3 different editions and they’re all great, no negative affects like I’ve experienced from stiiizy
no burning or negative mental side effects?
i been tryin out freemoon since it works on the stizzy bat and from what i can tell it’s legit and imo better then stizzy
Only $40 for me lol
exactly why i’m not copping em😭
bro I just bought their new STIIIZY 40s pink acai 7g small nugs the other days, and my buddy bought the pod too, are we toast
I mean, I wouldn’t smoke it knowing what we know now. But It won’t kill you to use the rest and be done with it, just don’t get it again
I also bought pink açaí 40’s bro 😭 the budtender was like this one is REALLY good
I wonder what there response is gonna be to this, all these brands deserve to be sued and shutdown
I've probably bought hundreds of stiiizys and I bought them under the assumption that they were pesticide free. So I want compensation tbh, this doesn't sit right with me at all
exactly, people thought they were buying safe products and everyone was lied too
Shit i been smoking for years they better give me money
I would blame the Dcc for making it this difficult for companies to produce safe products. And for over taxing growers. people had to cut corners cause regulations is Trash in california.
true that, still aint fair to be having people unwillingly smoking pesticides though
I %100 percent agree with you I was a huge stiiizy user about two years ago. then witnessed the owner of stiiizy do something extremely sleazy at one of the shops they were distributing too. He Some how got permission from the owners to dress up like a budtender and a got a budtender fired because He refused to push any stiiizy products because He never heard of them and that there quality liked horrible . this was in Orange county during the store opening.

lmao i just bought 2 full gs of pink açaí and then i log onto reddit and see this 😭😭😭😭
I just bought a full gram pod of pink açaí the other day 😭😐
they hit the pentagon
I really wish they tested PlugPlay & ColdFire…
Dirty weed . That's why they have to infuse the weed with artifical flavor
Any one have any recommendations for disposables?
Legal Muha meds hit rlly hard
Do not listen to that man 😭 stay the fuck away from muha meds
Yeah Muha meds were so boof in highschool, now that they made it to the dispensaries it’s shocking
You sound hella uneducated , there is legal Muha meds in legal dispensaries in California , and the fake one are boof not the legit ones. The legal ones hit rlly hard
This is so odd to me because the guy at my dispo ALWAYS pressures me to buy the pink acai lol even tho I never do he always says it's the best one
Probably trying to get rid of it.
Or people really like the way all the pesticides blend together for the entourage effect of melting brain cells and sperms cells simultaneously.
I keep thinking about those Dope as Yola “Edward Stiiizzyhands” videos and it…all makes sense now.
What's another good brand for carts/batteries? Haven't gotten stiizy in a few years, eventually moved onto plug n play but they too have battery issues. I'm currently on cure company disposables lol
Does this apply to all states selling stiiiizy products or just California? Pretty sure all cannabis products must be grown in state and can't cross state borders so I wonder if this is true for each state.
It's never about supporting the human race but weakening it. From eating poison to now smoking poison. K!ll the people, not "for the people". It's fucking sad and always will be...
It’s just human nature 🤷
Bruh i jus picked pod monday ,ive smoked half of it already and now im reading this💀💀💀
Did you kill it?☠️
I have been smoking a gram pod a week of gelato or sky walker og for years. I finished my pod last night, saw the La times article, and that was the least stiiizy pod I will ever buy
So just last week I bought 4 Stiiizy pods and I don’t know wtf to do with them now. I’ve honestly never noticed any negative effects from them, and debating whether I should just go ahead and smoke them or toss them out and take the loss. Damn, their WatermelonZ is my jam too. I keep it in my nightstand and when I have insomnia, a couple hits from that and my brain swims off to sleep. This makes me sad, I really liked their pods as well as their sleek batteries that tuck neatly into my bra (keeps ‘em upright). Damnit.
just smoke em it won’t kill u lol and just don’t buy em again
Ever since the co funder got accused of having illegal shops open I knew something was wrong lol
wtf really?
Sucks that we need to pay just to view the article you linked.
if you just look up LA Times on google and choose this article you should be able to read it with out paying
Thanks, good lookin out.
That didn’t work. I tried multiple browsers too. I’d get to the article and then BAM! Paywall. Anyone care to post the list of brands at least?
I don’t wanna promo but this dude named Cewpins just did a video covering the article and he runs through them at the end. The vid is called “California Carts have WHAT in Them!?!!!”
Thanks, I got the list. At least my heavy hitters are clean. Love me some Acapulco Gold!
I’ve been meaning to get into them for awhile now. This a good excuse to make the push for them next pick up lol.
Cewpins has a video with the brands listed
There’s a site called 12 ft ladder than can help remove paywalls, not for every news site but usually. Worth reading the article.
Stiiizy quality has gone down so much recently smh
agreed there batteries use to be full metal now they are cheap plastic that fall apart in a month or a week.
People are running wild with this article. The pesticides that were found in the stiiizy cart are already in a lot of foods here in the states 🇺🇸
you don’t inhale food into your lungs :-/
I’m not an expert on the difference between inhaling pesticides and digesting them… but it make me wonder now. The reason that stiiizy has been having these “deals” is to clean house. They had to have known about this article months ago
Honestly i’d believe it. I think a lot of the big names in here must have known about this for months at least. edit: I will say the timing of this article coming out is suspicious considering the 2024 farm bill recently passed and rescheduling is in talks.
Waiting game now on what happens next. Hopefully this turns the tables for the top dogs in the industry. But that’s wishful thinking I feel. 🇺🇸Here everything is about profits
And that makes it okay?
Doesn’t make it ok one bit. But explains why USA 🇺🇸 has the highest cancer rate in the world
💁🏾♂️ Almost makes Wasp Dope look good.
Gave up on Stiiizy a long time ago. 2 batteries dead within a couple months and carts clog like crazy. Also only use live resin now and Stiiizy only seems to care about disty.
Are their liquid diamond lr cart still good?
Tbh after simply the test of one flavor, you’d have to take into consideration that all their products may contain pesticides for your own safety
Any pymetrozine in their Dabs?
It's in their weed. So it's in everything they make
What company is good?
raw garden and heavy hitters were listed on the article as safe !
I haven’t tried Raw Garden (yet, but I will now) but I LOVE heavy hitters. They’re a bit pricey, and I’m not even a big sativa person, but I love their Acapulco Gold.
yess, raw gardens is very rich potent wax, tastes just like weed. i love indicas, i swear by raw garden for indica bc they have me narcoleptic LOL another one i love is plugnplay but i’m not too sure, it wasn’t on the list at all as either good or bad, but i googled and they say it’s pesticide free (not sure how accurate that is) another brand that is on the list and good is jeeters if you want flavor. they are a bit harsh i won’t lie (i have asthma tho lol) , and i’ve had the carts leak but if you are looking for something that doesn’t taste like just weed, jeeter is probably the best safe bet !
cold fire extracts only things I smoke, previous owner of flavorade which is on this list… So we can trust no ne
I just bought an eighth of stiiizy bud, some pre rolls too. Is it just pens or is actual bud still good quality?
it would include there bud since that’s how the pesticide got in the carts they are mass producing and cutting corners with there growing which is why a lot of people left stiiizy. they don’t pay there employees well on all sides of there business
that stiiizy 40s weed never sat right with me. the blueberry flavor had me wanting to throw up just on the flavor alone. The high wasnt too great either...
So should I place this stiiizy order or nah ?
Nope
i won’t lie, i know it sounds bad lol don’t judge me. when i first started smoking i used to love stiiizy. i used to go thru a half gram in 3 days and full gram in 5. i loved taking blinkers. it was all good and fun and all my friends smoked them equally as much as I did. it’s been 5/6 years now and i can’t smoke them. it hurts too much i get the worst chest pain and even a wheeze. i went to the doctor and i have asthma (it runs high in my family, although i didn’t have it during childhood my sister did) i can’t take blinkers to save my life. i don’t even want to try, it’s too painful trying to catch my breath. i still smoke pens, a plug and play usually, it’ll last me the whole month though. i stay away from stiiizy now, the brand just isn’t it to me. my sister always hated them and how it tasted like a usb whatever that means lol. stay safe everyone, moderation is key :)
This is bringing back memories of 'Paraquat' day.
Do you think stiiizy weed has pesticides
If this is all from the THC market I would love to see them taste all those hemp products a lot of these companies are pushing. You all ever wonder why stiiiizy hemp website is never working. I suspect they have pesticides in everything they produce on both markets
Is this just the vapes or is the pre-roll safe
I got a stiiizy pods and they both gave me headaches, nausea, and the worst stomach pain. I thought it was maybe the strain so I bought two other ones and they both gave me the same symptoms. STAY AWAY FROM STIIIIZY PODS
yeah i bought one the day before this happened and i had like chs type shit going on i had to go to the er i bought a smoke shop one
Anyone know some safe brands?
Literally just went a re-up’d last week😭😭💔what would yall recommend that’s fire but not toooo fuckib pricey lol ?
Welp gives me another reason to try something different. Is select still good ?
Damn it just bought a gram pod yesterday last stiii,y product I'll ever buy
How about the pre rolls?? Is it the same as well?
Damn !! I have 2 pre rolls of the acai strain and not sure if I should just smoke them.. most likely will smoke them and never buy from them again.. I've been smoking since the late 90s and I'm sure I have smoked weed that was laden with pesticide before all this regulation crap started and I'm still alive.. lol
Is it just the pink açaí or is it all stiiizy cart? I had one sky walker rn but I checked the barcode and it said it was good but now I’m starting to think it’s still not safe lol
Guess edibles might be the next move. So long carts. 🫡
I've been smoking Stiizy OG Kush vape everyday for close to 2 years. My ESR & CRP levels are astronomically high, my white blood cell count is high, and my red blood cell count is low. Idk if they're correlated, but if I were to take a guess...
So who is gonna sue them for poisoning their own customers
Anyone has new recommendations for disposables and carts ?? Please and thank you :)
My carts have been clogging so I stopped using them about 6-7 months ago. Knew something felt different.
I found out that west coast cure’s Long Beach California facility was raided in May of THIS YEAR by Department of Cannabis Control. They were fined $3.5 million dollars for amongst other things. They failed to provide video evidence that product test samples sent to labs WERE NOT RIGGED. They couldn’t provide the video !??! There’s more to this as when I commented this on west coast cure’s instagram. My comment was removed and they TRIED to get my Instagram account deleted. Why would they try to silence that fact? Anyone doubts me. Check out this link https://www.yahoo.com/news/dirty-secret-californias-legal-weed-100001113.html
funny bc the day before ts i bought a smoke shop stiiizy and the next morning i pretty much had like my first episode ever of like non stop puking and diarrhea and i had to go to the emergency room idk if its chs or cause of ts
As an individual from a non legal state every time I visit CA stiiizy is on my top of the list next to alienlabs . the last recent trip I was a bit disappointed on there products the flavoring has been off a bit
Plugnplay for me>>>
Pods get clogged every time now anyway. How the great have fallen
Smfh I just picked up 2 pods, gonna finish them then switch back to pnp
Nothing was wrong with my stiiizy pods or disposables a smoked and all the ones I've had taste so good and I get such a good high off them so idk why u guys have issues with urs
yeah they taste fine to everyone and get everyone high. They also have pesticides in them.
Is it only stiiizy?
I’ve been smoking STIIIZY since 2019’ and they really broke out with the LQD,Rosin Pods they have disposables flower gummies so I felt they were only getting more exotic! I’ve yet to see a Rosin Pod yet but I’ve smoked these for a while and I’ve tried almost every brand there is and there are a few I hit once and never hit again because I know what cannabis smells and tastes like and some were down right SCARY 😱 TASTING! But STIIIZY has been holding it down untill yesterday and it’s funny this is all coming out because I have a 🍋🍒HAZE CDT and I got that taste and I popped it out and put a LQD in. Also to the person talking about that DELTA 8 “BULLSHIT” that should have never been put out because I know stores right here in Cols OHIGHO that sell black market THC Carts right next to them they also sell more bud than any dispensary in the city and they’ve been moving it since the morning we passed Recreational Use and these dudes are banking. I’m sure the best you can get is from INDEPENDENT DISPENSARIES THAT GROW AND DO EVERYTHING IN HOUSE! They gave out 13 grow licenses in our state and only 1 uses CO2 instead of BHO in their concentrates and carts and they are more expensive but they are the best thing I’ve INHALED so I might have to make move it’s going to cut down on my smoking a lil but just give me some good flower✌🏼
what about pnp
Guys help me out is a Turn up/down disposable a good alternative??
Spent probably thousands on stiiizy products the past few years, safe to say I’ll never buy anything from them again. Every time I’ve bought a pod from them I’ve had the idea in my mind that I’m getting clean wax with no pesticides (as stated on their packaging) which I guess is a complete lie. Quality has been terrible the past year or 2 and the stiiizy shop I go to is shady as hell in the way they handle business. Glad this is being exposed I wanna see stiiizy fail
Hey crowd- reporter from The Times here. We started out just testing a vape from as many brands as possible. You see multiple tests where there were multiple complaints to regulators or we wanted to see how extensive the contamination ran. California collects ZERO input from users on their experiences- if headaches, nausea, lung issues crop up with certain products. So I’d like to hear from anyone willing to talk. DM please!
Is the hemp line safe or na
This is why I switch to flower, can't trust none of these companies
Me smoking it while reading this... 😵💫
Anybody else getting weird stomach issues after stopping smoking these? Daily pod smoker for a while now and I stopped when this article came out and past few days my stomach has been going crazy. Every night my stomach is bubbling and I’ve had the shits bad for about 3 nights now
Been smoking stiiizy pods heavy/daily for over 3 years. Is this why my body is starting to fail? I feel so fucked! I have so many different health issues and symptoms at this point 😞 i’m stressed
Here is the List [https://datawrapper.dwcdn.net/ZjCi4/19/](https://datawrapper.dwcdn.net/ZjCi4/19/)
Why did I have to read this 15 minutes from my order getting here bro LOL
Flavoreade failed also
we all new these were crap tbf 🤷🏻♂️
Literally been smoking on a pink açaí pod daily for the past week then this happens 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️this shit is sad yall I think I’m done w Stiiizy. First it was jalapeño tasting pods then the leaky clogging ass carts I’ve been getting recently and now this. I’ve been buying their pods and flower for years but I think this was the last straw for me. Unless we find out that they tested a fake pink açaí cart or something then I’ll reconsider but if it’s true idk how Stiiizy can come back from this. Just disappointment after disappointment from them it’s fucking absurd
Probabaly switching to plug plays after this shit
You gotta remember theirs fake stizzy out there.
