The Cannabis Thread #2

Thanks for the advice! Any good recommendations (sorry not particularly excited to browse the 20 pages of replies)?
HowzitBud (@HowzitBud_bot) or King Kushie (website) are two I've had no issues with. I'm sure someone else can recommend others. 420 monkeys seem to be a bit too pedantic with their requirements now (you need to send photos of all kinds of nonsense to prove you're not a cop or whatever).
 
Lets hope King Kushie delivers tonight. Placed an order yesterday morning, did the Cash Send and nothing heard since then. Not so worried about the money, but need the weed to counter the radiation therapy side effects (nausea and vomiting).
The other weed is dried out so need new weed.

Update: day two after placing order. No delivery. This is not the service I received the last time from these guys.

UPDATED: Feedback removed.

I no longer support Herb Life.

Thanks to the poor treatment from staff, like Shane especially.

It's sad to have gone out of my way in dedicating many hours towards doing feedbacks & positive mentions for this store, only to receive accusations & insults in return.

If I had to assume/guess why that happened. I think this could have something to do with my appearance perhaps? I dress very casual/non-fancy. Maybe my ethnicity is a factor too. But I know that I am generally very polite & respectful, in the way I speak to, and treat others. It could be possible, that sometimes people feel that you may be disingenuous or 'want something' from them, when you are just being the polite & courteous person you were taught to be.

Anyway, I've never had such an experience with any other stores/vendors/outlets in my life thus far. And I hope no one else has to suffer the same. Peace & respect.

Durbanites, have you checked out Herb Life?

Was leaving MICA on Umhlanga Rocks drive, when I unexpectedly noticed Herb Life now has a physical premises just there next to the adult store... everything in one place? :ROFL:

Was so excited that I had to stop and take a look :D

There is a beautiful spacious venue, with lounge/tables and hookah/snack bar. Pics on instagram.

The bud menu is updated frequently, and includes selections of:
-AAA Indoor
-AA Indoor
-Greenhouse
-Outdoor
-Honey Combs
-Extractions (Dab/Shatter)
-Moonrock

There is also a wide range of other products available, as well as all kinds of utensils/accessories.

Alright, let's get down to business and take a look at some kindly provided flower samples:

1) OG Kush Outdoor: PICS
Just look at it, nice.. Smells like OG. Visually free of foreign contaminants. Good bud size. Nice density, and mix of clear, cloudy, and amber trichs. Nice trich bulbousity too. Tokes good. Quite pleased.
The Dry: Quite good, buds still have a slight softness and give. Ready to use, or go into a curing jar.

2) Lime Sorbet Greenhouse: PICS
Strong green tinge. Trichs bulbous, and mostly transparent with some ambering. Dried/cured well and ready to go.

3) Sherblato Greenhouse: PICS
Looks yummy. Good density of bulbous trichs; mostly transparent with light ambering. Dried/cured well and ready to go.

4) Granimals AAA Indoor: PICS
What a beauty. Great scent. Densely packed trichs, with little cloudiness or ambering. Dried/cured well and ready to go.

Just for added fun, here are some previously received Herb Life gifts that have been curing:

5) Hulk Berry Outdoor: PICS
30 Days in the cure jar so far. I do detect a subtle fruit/berry aroma. There were some huge prime buds included, as I did mention I was a fan of big butts..I mean buds. So top marks for bud size, little popcorn. A high THC strain, with the aesthetics and smoke that seems to match. Very clean, I haven't come across any lint, bugs, or other visually detectable foreign contaminants.

6) Phantom OG Greenhouse: PICS
Cured for ~8 months now. It's been a while since I tried some, but I do recall it being good and strong. One or two seeds. Trichs lengthy but small bulbed, bit of cloudyness, lots of ambering.

7) Super Cheese Greenhouse: PICS
Cured for ~8 months now. This cheese has a good aroma and potency of toke. Even mix of transparent and amber trichs that seem decently bulbous.

Conclusion

Herb Life has been on the ball with every interaction I've personally had. Items available seem to be selectively procured, no hit-or-miss. Condition of the bud has always been on point, with no indications of improper handling, or trichome harvesting etc. Weights have always been consistently above expected figure (packaging taken into account). No problems with improperly dried, or overly moist bud.

Even as a frugal toker, they seem to always satisfy my high expectations of value, with the bonus of friendly and efficient service on the top. They love to hear positive feedback, and genuinely care whether you're happy. :giggle: I wish them all the best, and hope to hear of many other satisfied visitors to the cool locale. Maybe a potential spot for a future MyBroadband KZN meetup? :D A special thank you to HL for the graciously provided samples. :notworthy:

Please consider liking this post if you found it worth a look at. Thanks :)

TL;DR: Awesome new spot in Durban, KZN. Has it all, I really recommend popping by for a look :thumbsup:
Great! There's a 'dispensary' in Hillcrest too (forgot the name) with some of the best bud I've every had. I asked the guys how it can be legal to sell and they showed me their "traditional healer' certificates.

I'm not complaining! Just worried these get shut down, cause let's face it - everyone knows it's not legal to sell yet right? I mean check out this notice on the pics - so how can they get past the PoPo? The pigs must get paid off in gummies :p

Do you have a Postnet near you? I can send you 10g of indoor, mahala.

Canapax also had a "traditional healer" cert. The owner got arrested. It means NOTHING.

There's another shop in Durban North that is 300 meters away from the PoPo station :cool:
 
Is it legal to gift someone weed? So what if you if pay somewhat more for rizla papers in return. Envious of you durbanites btw.

Agree Durbs seem more relaxed. Not that finding a dealer is any kind of challenge in Gauties btw, but we went to a shop in bluff that sold whatever we wanted over the counter, exactly the way God intended the holy leaf be distributed.
 
Anybody have issues with Honeyvape's tips recently? My latest purchase seems to be blocked constantly and whenever I drag hard enough to unblock it (or even when I gently warm it between my fingers first) I get a mouthful of (wasted) distillate popping out?
I've had this issue with various distillate vapes, it seems to be related to warm weather, keep it somewhere cool.
 
Anybody tried the 5D vapes from THC Vapes/honeyvape - are they any good? They’re advertised as 85%….

Yeah tbh I can’t tell much apart from the 5D and the other cart - think it’s the Delta 8 cart with the same THC content. The true HoneyVape carts are definitely that bit stronger, however all the carts have such high THC content I wouldn't feel overly pushed to spend on the 90%+ HV carts. It’s just personal preference, you get a lot more strain choice with HV carts as well.
You just gotta be so careful to not build an insane tolerance, once you start on these things it’s hard to go back to bud if you fall in love with the product. I would need to go on a serious tolerance break to get high from regular bud now.

THCVapes.co.za aka HoneyVape is great, however recently they’ve been a bit slack on delivery and others are saying the same. I really hope they aren’t getting relaxed with their very strong and loyal THC vape Cart customers and becoming complacent.
 
The vapes give a strong thc hit, but I cannot stand the vapour in my lungs. Also there are more compounds in real cannabis smoke than just the thc that give a better experience.
