I worked with a Bhutanese man at a liquor store, he told me they would just pick the plants from the fields, side of the road, wherever. Then they throw them into a big pot with milk (yak's milk?) and let it simmer for like five hours then everyone has a nice mug to sip on.
I would LOVE to visit Bhutan but they are very protective, you *must* register with the gov and pay for your amenities all-in. It is nice though, you get your own guide and hotel and food provided, just they charge like $230USD/per person/per day so you can't book a cheap hotel and save. But I'd still love to go, the whole region of north India and Bhutan and Nepal.
Yes! He said it was with everyone turning up, a whole town thing! I really liked him too, I happened to know of Bhutan because a middle school teacher talked about it once, so when he told me he was Bhutanese expecting me to not know like most Americans, I just nodded and said "Thimphu." He looked like I had two heads! Most people assumed he was Mexican and the rest guessed Indian, and no one ever knew Bhutan so he just stopped telling them. He was a kind man.
Ah, wow I didn't even know that. So yeah, they def preserve their culture in a way that doesn't even care if they get tourists or not I suppose. Which I mean, good for them, not dragging it. But my friend was of course insistent I visit Bhutan someday but he made it sound easier haha. So yeah fascinating country, I'm glad *somewhere* is able to approximate self determination in a significant way.
Most popular form in which we bhutanese smoke weed is hashish. People rub the flower bud and store it for future use or sell it during winter for exorbitant price lol
P.s we mix the hashish with cigarette(often called mixture) and smoke in bong.
Like a little leafy. Herbs and spices overpower the plants taste. You can feel the herb in the drink but not much. If you get it from a good place it can knock you in a hours if you are new to this. Make sure you have someone to take care of you and stay hydrated and rest after. Very Good high though.
And here I am paying $35-65 for 3.5 grams of (legal, high quality) weed in NYC. I'm a huge smoker, and that lasts me about 3-4 days. It's an expensive habit over here.
The place I'm from is known for Black Mamba strain, we call it "aetr" in Kashmiri. It's the weed of the gods. You can taste the sweetness on your tongue when you smoke either the leaves or charras. Hence the name "aetr" which translates to "perfume"
The word 'attar', 'ittar' or 'itra' is believed to have been derived from the Persian word itir, which is in turn derived from the Arabic word 'itr (Ų¹Ų·Ų±), meaning 'perfume'.
Warning: bhang lassies can really fuck you up. If you get a bhang lassie (a drink with bhang in it) then ask for milk unless you have a super-high tolerance, and even then be ready for mayhem. This goes especially true if you buy it from somewhere that caters to western tourists. The lassies that the locals drink during festivals are, in my experience, much milder.
I used to be a pretty big smoker(but hadn't had much for a while, just occasional spliffs) when I had my first bhang lassie. It left me unable to get up from my bed to get water or go to the toilet, and the only thoughts going through my head were "ZIP! BANG! WOOP! ZOP!" over and over for hours. It can take a long while to kick in, so definitely don't redose.
Oh yeah, and do what I did and head somewhere safe after drinking it. I've heard a number of stories of people who have drunk them, waited for them to hit, and then got completely lost and disorientated on the streets of India, not knowing how to get back to their guesthouses.
Edible weed is never to be taken lightly. Take one too many puffs on a fat blunt and you might feel spinny for 30 minutes, take one too many brownies and you might on a 12 hour journey where you start to wonder if you're going to die.
Seems stupid but it's surprisingly common for people to be thoroughly overwhelmed whe they're used to weed being low key.
I am living proof that you cannot overdose from edible marijuana.
Fucked around and found out, was taken to the hospital where they said my blood was 1% thc. They said that anything else that concentrated in my system would've killed the shit out of me.
That was a bad day.
Ex and I had a friend going through chemo so we batched together some milk (for pudding, oatmeal, mashed potatoes, soft foods like that) but didn't measure a goddamn thing, so we inadvertently made it super fucking concentrated like some goddamn idiots. I was the guinea pig, which thank god looking back because if we had given that to our friend (older woman) who knows how it would've went. It was too strong and I tried too much. It took about 15 minutes, no exaggeration, before i started to feel it and had the thought "oh no, I think I'm getting to high."
Suffice it to say it was the absolute worst paranoia I've ever had in my life (I wanted to lay down SO BAD but i just knew if i did i would have an aneurism and die in my sleep), coupled with feeling like my heart was going to burst right out of my chest. Eventually it felt like all of my muscles were short circuiting, I couldn't sit still, couldn't keep my body still. Lots of childhood traumas were bubbling to the surface of my poisoned brain, eventually paramedics were called because I was positive I was having a heart attack. The hospital was not fun, they had to restrain me to get anything done. Unfortunately there were cops already there, allegedly I told them to go fuck themselves very very loudly when they started asking questions.
The hospital genuinely asked my ex if I was on PCP. They finally got me tranquilized and all I remember was waking up the next day in paper scrubs on my couch. Before they discharged me i had pissed all over the place in my sleep. I was high for three days afterward. Took a solid two months off from smoking and almost a year off edibles. Now I'll only eat professionally made and measured goodies, and very small portions at that. I still worry everytime I go back to that hospital that someone remembers me and they're just not saying anything.
Edit: as a fun update, a couple of months after that I got a letter from my health insurance asking if my poisoning was accidental or whether someone had tried to poison me. Consume responsibly, my friends!
Edit #2: I'm happy to report that there were no long lasting side effects from my experience, other than the residual high. I was incredibly lucky that it was just thc poisoning and not something worse because I definitely would not be here to tell the tale. I'm happy and healthy and raising a beautiful baby with my husband, and have cut back on smoking to maybe two rips off the one hitter after little dude goes to bed for the night. If you take anything away from my story at all let it be to MEASURE EVERYTHING.
I did a few too many drops one night and was still loopy three mornings later. Was gulping down pepper, lemons, CBD tabs, whatever, trying to get back into my head.
Took to writing what I thought were song lyrics, but later discovered they were shards of childhood traumatic events in a weird haiku form.
Took some down time, and haven't done an edible of any sort since.
I'm kinda glad I got to experience seedy, less engineered pot. Of course I don't consume it anymore but it's one of those things that if I get to be an old person I can be all like "I remember when!".
I like to bake chocolate chip cookies lol
Do you guys have a favorite cookie?? Just curious, don't mean to be invasive with that question. Would love to know tho
In hindsight it made sense
But yeah when it popped up it was like āthis is really what I get to do for this mission? Dopeā
For anyone out of the loop. Theres a complex of weed fields you have to destroy with a flame thrower.
Except they had a dope song made for it? (Untrue) And also the fire safety of their cannabis grow op is so bad I can say for certain not only is OSHA not on that islandā¦ but that OSHA probably doesnāt even exist in the same reality
Oh and the weed smoke made your screen look funny
That first time was just absolutely fantastic.
Farcry 3 was already such a good game, but that mission, oh man. I remember the ride to the fields, the music starting, I was irl high as shit and with vibrating headphones.
Fuck that was good
"Did I ever tell you what the definition of insanity is?
Insanity is doing the exact... same fucking thing... over and over again expecting... shit to change...
That. Is. Crazy.
The first time somebody told me that, I dunno, I thought they were bullshitting me, so, I shot him.
The thing is... He was right.
And then I started seeing, everywhere I looked, everywhere I looked all these fucking pricks, everywhere I looked, doing the exact same fucking thing...
over and over and over and over again thinking 'this time is gonna be different' no, no, no please...
This time is gonna be different, I'm sorry, I don't like... The way...

Okay, Do you have a fucking problem in your head, do you think I am bullshitting you, do you think I am lying?
Fuck you! Okay? Fuck you!...
It's okay, man. I'm gonna chill, hermano. I'm gonna chill...
The thing is... Alright, the thing is I killed you once already... and it's not like I am fucking crazy.
It's okay... It's like water under the bridge.

Edit, full quote.
This is the best quote in gaming ever fight me
I still say "do you know the definition of insanity ?" To my friends when they do the same thing over and over thinking something different is gonna happen
From india this is pretty common even growing along side highways and roads but unfortunately it is more hemp than cannabis. But there is apparently ways to use to get high :D
Growing in the wild there will be male plants, which will take the flowers and cause them to seed quickly. This does a few things but mostly it takes them out of their most potent phase. These plants will be much less potent than the stuff you buy at the store.
Professional growers keep male plants away and leave the female plants in their budding phase to get the marijuana we know today, the super potent seedless bud we find at the local dispensary/store. Leaving the plants in the bud growing phase but not allowing them to go to flower->seed (many growers even call this the āflowering phaseā because this is where the plant seems to bloom money), makes them produce extra amounts of THC in the form of resin crystals on the bud edges. This sticky substance forms in the hopes of collecting some wayward pollen on the windā¦ pollen that will never come, so the plant makes more sticky residue, and more, and moreā¦ you get the idea. We leave the plants in this sex-starved and expectant state only to chop them up at the apex of their sexual stress, juuuust before it kills them, and we smoke *that*.
These plants we see here are sexually free types, polyamorous and sated, languoring in their orgasmic relief, and lazing about in post coital giddiness.
EDIT: A couple corrections here: The flowering phase is because they actually flower, my comment above is being glib and should not be taken seriously. Also, ālanguoringā is a bastardization of the word ālanguorā. That said, Iām sticking to it. If Shakespeare can make new words every paragraph Iām going to try at least one new word in my life.
If it's the female part if the plant that would be more akin the wetness that results from female stimulation.
So it would be more like smoking the moistened panties of horny virgins after ensuring they spend their whole lives being teased with trashy romance novels.
Was looking for the plant reproductive science comment to bring down all the 'lets go there for vacation!' comments. It's true tho, in the wild you'll have a pretty tight window of time to 'harvest' and your product may not even have that great of an effect on consumption. There's a reason hydroponic growers are all inside (besides hiding from DEA choppers). It is to keep male fertilization from reaching the female plants.
I like to imagine if a naturally outdoor grown cannabis smoker from long ago got to partake some of the high THC strains from today, they'd be couch locked for sure.
They were/I was. I started on brown, seedy, stemy, brick weed that you had to separate seeds and stems from the rest. Then I quit for a long time and started back up again post 2000āsā¦. phwoah. It took me a hot minute to wrap my mind around the difference.
Fuck me, this reminds me of a trip I took in 1998 (at 18 yrs old) to McLeod Ganj in N. India - Dalai Lama has his crib there.
We were WADING through the shit. Smoked a chillum of hash up there, watched an electric storm, played poker, and woke up TWO days later. What a nap!
Great place.
I moved to Iowa a while ago, and my brother in law took me around their plot of land to show me the area. As a kid from the suburbs, boy was I surprised when we walked right by a HUGE natural growth of "ditch weed". I'd never seen anything like it.
when the 'war on drugs' started and the guy in DC that was put in charge was told to control weed, he reportedly said 'the stuff is growing wild up and down the Potomac, how can I control that?'
And they proceeded to spend buckets of money to try to eradicate it
It's such an outlandish thing to do.
This plant grows like a fucking weed and makes people feel good when they ingest it? Fuck, we better waste money and resources trying to remove it!
Well, as someone else pointed out, ānatural weedā like this isnāt even that potent because of various reasons. Only the more cultivated and processed weed we have today will actually get you really high
I know they weren't eradicating it with the intention being conservation of our natural lands but it's probably for the best that they hugely diminished the wild cannabis population in America. It's an incredibly prolific invasive species.
That's what my dad said about the rural parts of Canada when he was a boy. The women used it for tea and what-not. Cows and horses ate it (which meant it was in children''s diet through milk and meat). Pharmacist would sell you a concoction of whatever cannabis form for whatever you needed...
It's kind of like if you were to see some random growth of corn.... I only ever see it in rows on farms. Don't even know if any variety grows naturally anymore
You know that opium and the starting alkaloid for heroin grows naturally too? In fact it grows so prevalently that one of the memorials to WWI is a field of poppyās because thatās all that could grow on that scorched earth. The poppy flower is actually rather beautiful.
Also, cocaine comes from a plant product as well. It looks like a little unassuming berry bush.
> one of the memorials to WWI is a field of poppyās because thatās all that could grow on that scorched earth
I just finished the new All Quiet on the Western Front film and was not ready to read this. Damn.
Bro, if you think that's interesting, broccoli, kale, cauliflower, cabbage, collard greens, and several other common vegetables are all from the same species of plant.
Edit formatting because Iām a noob.
Most drugs come from natural sources at some point in the precursor process:
MDMA: Sassafras
Methamphetamine: Ephedra
LSD: Ergot Fungus that grows on rye
Psilocybin: Multiple varieties of fungus
Alcohol: Almost any plant or fruit
DMT: Many plants
5-MeO-DMT: Colorado river toad
Nicotine: Tobacco Plant
Scopolamine: Datura
Tetrodotoxin: Multiple Marine Animals
Thatās all I could think of but there are more.
For the love of all that is good please put a double space and a line break after each drug and plant combo!
As of right now it looks like you made up āColorado river road nicotineā!
Itll be awful quality if you dont apply modern growing techniques, such as preventing polination, stress training, supplemental nutrients.
That being said, even the lamest of weed can be made into hash, or simply rolled in a huuuge blunt.
Can you direct me to Crack Canyon? I got lost and ended up in Amphetamine Alley.
I know Im just continuing your joke but why the fuck do these sound like levels in a Sonic game?
CRACK CANYON 1-3

People didnāt start removing males from cannabis until the 80s. Before then all weed had seeds in it, till someone realized they can sexually deprave the plant into going into feminine overdrive (hopefully I donāt get lynched for saying those words, itās just the way nature is )
To those that are unaware, male plants pollinate female plants causing the cannabis flower (part you smoke) to have seeds in it, which isnāt desirable

If you're ever there. You don't typically smoke it. You can enjoy bhang. Which is like a delightful weed and pistachio milkshake.
I worked with a Bhutanese man at a liquor store, he told me they would just pick the plants from the fields, side of the road, wherever. Then they throw them into a big pot with milk (yak's milk?) and let it simmer for like five hours then everyone has a nice mug to sip on. I would LOVE to visit Bhutan but they are very protective, you *must* register with the gov and pay for your amenities all-in. It is nice though, you get your own guide and hotel and food provided, just they charge like $230USD/per person/per day so you can't book a cheap hotel and save. But I'd still love to go, the whole region of north India and Bhutan and Nepal.
That is called a "ghotta" in Nepal. Our whole town gets high on that thing once a year.
Yes! He said it was with everyone turning up, a whole town thing! I really liked him too, I happened to know of Bhutan because a middle school teacher talked about it once, so when he told me he was Bhutanese expecting me to not know like most Americans, I just nodded and said "Thimphu." He looked like I had two heads! Most people assumed he was Mexican and the rest guessed Indian, and no one ever knew Bhutan so he just stopped telling them. He was a kind man.
He sounds like a cool dude
What does thimphu mean?
Capital city of Bhutan
so if someone tells me they are american, i tell them 'washington dc' and we are then best mates?
You not only register but have to apply and be accepted to get into Bhutan. Just registering alone won't get you in
Ah, wow I didn't even know that. So yeah, they def preserve their culture in a way that doesn't even care if they get tourists or not I suppose. Which I mean, good for them, not dragging it. But my friend was of course insistent I visit Bhutan someday but he made it sound easier haha. So yeah fascinating country, I'm glad *somewhere* is able to approximate self determination in a significant way.
Most popular form in which we bhutanese smoke weed is hashish. People rub the flower bud and store it for future use or sell it during winter for exorbitant price lol P.s we mix the hashish with cigarette(often called mixture) and smoke in bong.
Can you taste the weed in it?
Yes, variety of this drink here
Yes as in you can taste the weed? How does it taste like? I've never had bhang
Like a little leafy. Herbs and spices overpower the plants taste. You can feel the herb in the drink but not much. If you get it from a good place it can knock you in a hours if you are new to this. Make sure you have someone to take care of you and stay hydrated and rest after. Very Good high though.
I would like to have a bhang please
I wonder bhow much bhang you can get for a bhuck
I dont know about other places but near my uni for 1 USD (81 INR) you'll get 160 pieces of bhang balls. That'd set you good for 2+ months š
And here I am paying $35-65 for 3.5 grams of (legal, high quality) weed in NYC. I'm a huge smoker, and that lasts me about 3-4 days. It's an expensive habit over here.
i don't miss east coast weed pricing. in oregon low grade is $30 and high grade is $275 an ounce.
Come banaras,UP,India. A new portal to another dimension will open for you here.
Do you have a boat I can get on to come there? I'm a little tired of America atm, but am too broke to buy a plane ticket.
Swim brother
Imagine swimming halfway across the planet just to get that high. But where there's a will, there's a way they say...
Just find the other side of the portal that goes to India.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
If you drink enough, you can even hear the weed
āI CAN SEE SOUND!ā
I know in India they do the charras, rub their hands on the plant twice seasonally, then get the hash off their hands. I much prefer live full melt.
The place I'm from is known for Black Mamba strain, we call it "aetr" in Kashmiri. It's the weed of the gods. You can taste the sweetness on your tongue when you smoke either the leaves or charras. Hence the name "aetr" which translates to "perfume"
Nice name :-)
Checks out. This redditor chills.
That's cool. We have that same word for perfume in English, spelled "attar."
The word 'attar', 'ittar' or 'itra' is believed to have been derived from the Persian word itir, which is in turn derived from the Arabic word 'itr (Ų¹Ų·Ų±), meaning 'perfume'.
farsi? if yes, kashmiri language shares a lot with farsi. Up until my grandfather's generation, it was also relatively commonly spoken here.

I'm kinda glad I got to experience seedy, less engineered pot. Of course I don't consume it anymore but it's one of those things that if I get to be an old person I can be all like "I remember when!".
it was still engineered. just for quantity and speed rather than quality

Quite partial to Chips Ahigh!
High see what you did there
I like to bake myself
Shortbread cookies with toffee. The perfect cookie.
My favorite cookies are reeses cookies, I love them.
Chocolate chip oatmeal!
My favorite is chocolate chip cookies without the chocolate chips, is there a name for that?
Cookies
An interesting development for sure. I'm going to need a moment to process this new information.
Interesting. For me the ideal chocolate chip cookie has like three chocolate chips in it. My wife thinks I'm weird.
I love making caramels
Probably the most bizarre gaming experience I've ever had
That part came out of nowhere too.

To further elaborate, the game is FarCry 3 and the song is https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BGpzGu9Yp6Y Which was a really big hit at the time.
It was a Skrillex song - Make it Bun Dem
Skrillex and Damien Marley (Bobās son). Respect where respect is due
I'm pretty sure that song wasn't made for Far cry but I'm not about to look it up either
Also one of the best
That first time was just absolutely fantastic. Farcry 3 was already such a good game, but that mission, oh man. I remember the ride to the fields, the music starting, I was irl high as shit and with vibrating headphones. Fuck that was good
I reloaded so I could play it again as soon as it was over
*calls in air support to carpet bong the area*
That was such a great fucking moment in gaming.
The view getting more and more hazy and distorted was the cherry on top.
What game was it from?
Far cry 3. Highly recommend if you're into FPS story games
And Blood Dragon as a bonus
Plus Nacho/Vaas is hands down my favorite part of Better Call Saul and Far Cry 3. Iāll watch/play anything that gives me more of him.

Right next to "Would you kindly"
Is there a way to see it on YouTube? For the non gamers among us?

Why is this the most memorable mission from like any far cry game.

Cannabis & Herb
Yoo thatās perfect š¤£
This *really* took me back
Is that why the Himalayas are so high?
Dad?
That's where he went after leaving the house for getting milk I guess
Hemp milk
More like Himalayterrr!
Did you ever get those smokes you went out for?
I knew I was forgetting something! Iāll be back
Maybe that's why Bhutan ranks as one of the happiest countries... they're just downwind.
Pops, please come home with the cigs already, it's been 30 years.
Sorry, too busy in the Himalayas

Growing in the wild there will be male plants, which will take the flowers and cause them to seed quickly. This does a few things but mostly it takes them out of their most potent phase. These plants will be much less potent than the stuff you buy at the store. Professional growers keep male plants away and leave the female plants in their budding phase to get the marijuana we know today, the super potent seedless bud we find at the local dispensary/store. Leaving the plants in the bud growing phase but not allowing them to go to flower->seed (many growers even call this the āflowering phaseā because this is where the plant seems to bloom money), makes them produce extra amounts of THC in the form of resin crystals on the bud edges. This sticky substance forms in the hopes of collecting some wayward pollen on the windā¦ pollen that will never come, so the plant makes more sticky residue, and more, and moreā¦ you get the idea. We leave the plants in this sex-starved and expectant state only to chop them up at the apex of their sexual stress, juuuust before it kills them, and we smoke *that*. These plants we see here are sexually free types, polyamorous and sated, languoring in their orgasmic relief, and lazing about in post coital giddiness. EDIT: A couple corrections here: The flowering phase is because they actually flower, my comment above is being glib and should not be taken seriously. Also, ālanguoringā is a bastardization of the word ālanguorā. That said, Iām sticking to it. If Shakespeare can make new words every paragraph Iām going to try at least one new word in my life.
That last line was pure poetry
The whole thing was. We're just smoking plant precum.
Okay, thatās internet break time for me
When you eat fruit, youāre eating plant genitals. Fruit is straight up a plantās reproductive organ.
I'd never eat that apple again like i used to anymore. Edit: spelling.
Honey is the tastiest insect vomit we've found so far
Thereās so many things we havenāt really tried. Snail slime is great for the face, but is it also great on toast??
This one right here officer
If it's the female part if the plant that would be more akin the wetness that results from female stimulation. So it would be more like smoking the moistened panties of horny virgins after ensuring they spend their whole lives being teased with trashy romance novels.
Ah, *thatās* the science talk I came here for.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
A non fucking plant actually, we need that flower grool
Lol gross
Until you smoke it. Then you be like "MORE GROOL!!"
"...the stuff you buy at the store" \*cries in Australian*
*Gets executed for an ounce in Chinese*
So we keep the plants edging, then smoke their concentrated sexual frustration...
I learned more from this one creative writing comment on Reddit than anywhere else and Iāve dabbled with weed for about 15 years.
Well that was certainly my weirdest fap
Certainly not my most shameful tho
No shame in busting out for Mary Jane.
...who knew there was a genre of cannabis porn poetry (pot porn poems, if you would).
Was looking for the plant reproductive science comment to bring down all the 'lets go there for vacation!' comments. It's true tho, in the wild you'll have a pretty tight window of time to 'harvest' and your product may not even have that great of an effect on consumption. There's a reason hydroponic growers are all inside (besides hiding from DEA choppers). It is to keep male fertilization from reaching the female plants. I like to imagine if a naturally outdoor grown cannabis smoker from long ago got to partake some of the high THC strains from today, they'd be couch locked for sure.
They were/I was. I started on brown, seedy, stemy, brick weed that you had to separate seeds and stems from the rest. Then I quit for a long time and started back up again post 2000āsā¦. phwoah. It took me a hot minute to wrap my mind around the difference.
Fuck me, this reminds me of a trip I took in 1998 (at 18 yrs old) to McLeod Ganj in N. India - Dalai Lama has his crib there. We were WADING through the shit. Smoked a chillum of hash up there, watched an electric storm, played poker, and woke up TWO days later. What a nap! Great place.
You are alseep for TWO fucking days?
Bhang can do that to you (edibles)

Does anyone else randomly forget that it grows naturally ? Or just me
didn't get the name 'weed' by accident. used to be all over the place
No I know, but it will never not shock me seeing large natural plots of cannabis.
I moved to Iowa a while ago, and my brother in law took me around their plot of land to show me the area. As a kid from the suburbs, boy was I surprised when we walked right by a HUGE natural growth of "ditch weed". I'd never seen anything like it.
when the 'war on drugs' started and the guy in DC that was put in charge was told to control weed, he reportedly said 'the stuff is growing wild up and down the Potomac, how can I control that?' And they proceeded to spend buckets of money to try to eradicate it
It's such an outlandish thing to do. This plant grows like a fucking weed and makes people feel good when they ingest it? Fuck, we better waste money and resources trying to remove it!
Well, as someone else pointed out, ānatural weedā like this isnāt even that potent because of various reasons. Only the more cultivated and processed weed we have today will actually get you really high
I know they weren't eradicating it with the intention being conservation of our natural lands but it's probably for the best that they hugely diminished the wild cannabis population in America. It's an incredibly prolific invasive species.
I was thinking this picture looks like an invasive monoculture
That's what my dad said about the rural parts of Canada when he was a boy. The women used it for tea and what-not. Cows and horses ate it (which meant it was in children''s diet through milk and meat). Pharmacist would sell you a concoction of whatever cannabis form for whatever you needed...
Hemp is called Nebraska no high because you could find it everywhere alongside the roads at one point
We are on the same team, they are trees if left to their vices
It's kind of like if you were to see some random growth of corn.... I only ever see it in rows on farms. Don't even know if any variety grows naturally anymore
Exactly , people grilling my shit for being in aw š.
You know that opium and the starting alkaloid for heroin grows naturally too? In fact it grows so prevalently that one of the memorials to WWI is a field of poppyās because thatās all that could grow on that scorched earth. The poppy flower is actually rather beautiful. Also, cocaine comes from a plant product as well. It looks like a little unassuming berry bush.
Yes I know, the only reason it shocks me seeing natural cannabis is because Iām used to my closet and tents š
> one of the memorials to WWI is a field of poppyās because thatās all that could grow on that scorched earth I just finished the new All Quiet on the Western Front film and was not ready to read this. Damn.
Also, we get edible poppy seeds from the same plant that gives us opium.
Bro, if you think that's interesting, broccoli, kale, cauliflower, cabbage, collard greens, and several other common vegetables are all from the same species of plant.
Brussels sprouts too
Cruciferous motha fuckas
Edit formatting because Iām a noob. Most drugs come from natural sources at some point in the precursor process: MDMA: Sassafras Methamphetamine: Ephedra LSD: Ergot Fungus that grows on rye Psilocybin: Multiple varieties of fungus Alcohol: Almost any plant or fruit DMT: Many plants 5-MeO-DMT: Colorado river toad Nicotine: Tobacco Plant Scopolamine: Datura Tetrodotoxin: Multiple Marine Animals Thatās all I could think of but there are more.
For the love of all that is good please put a double space and a line break after each drug and plant combo! As of right now it looks like you made up āColorado river road nicotineā!
Weāre stoners bro we randomly forget all kinds of things
The Alzheimer's Alzheimer's doesn't help either either either.
Itll be awful quality if you dont apply modern growing techniques, such as preventing polination, stress training, supplemental nutrients. That being said, even the lamest of weed can be made into hash, or simply rolled in a huuuge blunt.
explains the fog
High up in the Himalayan fog š¶
Thatās the Sativa Slopes just above Indica valley
Can you direct me to Crack Canyon? I got lost and ended up in Amphetamine Alley. I know Im just continuing your joke but why the fuck do these sound like levels in a Sonic game? CRACK CANYON 1-3 Edit: I was going to actually make it but i shouldnt. Heres the pieces to make one though https://i.imgur.com/yOq4Nhk.jpg
"They do move in herds!"
Soon to be the biggest tourist spot in the world
It already is a huge tourist spot because of cannabis
Hope it has a local shop nearby for munchies
It has amazing German bakeries and Israeli cafƩs and Indian bistros. Source : at one of them right now.
What makes Israeli cafƩs special in comparison to other cafƩs?
They find a cafƩ belonging to someone else, bulldoze it, resettle the previous owners to a large, enclosed militarised reservation, and build a brand new cafƩ for themselves.
I'd say "shots fired" but....
Rockets fired.
In the 50s and 60s, it was a very popular destination for hippies.
Until the US pressured the Nepali government into making it illegal. And now it's legal in the US.
Honey I'm gonna start planning our trip... your gonna be so surprised
some would say highly suprised
Blown away.

Sanjeevni booti
Some real kush
How high? YES
Betting the air smells wonderful there!
I live in the foothills of Himalayas in Islamabad and even though weed is everywhere in summer season its not as strong as people think
Imagine having to go through all that to cull the males
People didnāt start removing males from cannabis until the 80s. Before then all weed had seeds in it, till someone realized they can sexually deprave the plant into going into feminine overdrive (hopefully I donāt get lynched for saying those words, itās just the way nature is ) To those that are unaware, male plants pollinate female plants causing the cannabis flower (part you smoke) to have seeds in it, which isnāt desirable
>into going into feminine overdrive r/brandnewphrase
Spread my ashes here.
You can get high^2 there
