Title: Weed - USA to UK??
Post by: raistlin on May 24, 2012, 11:48 pm
On my never ending mission to try every possible strain of weed before I die ive been toying with the idea of trying a few strains from over the water.
I see a lot of threads and feedbacks of orders going into America but very little about the other way.
So I thought I would just ask the great minds here if they had any thoughts on the matter.
Peace guys. :)

I have had one unsuccessful order from the US (alot of people had the same problem with that seller so i think maybe UK customs caught on to their method, no love letter though).

However i didn't let that deter me and i have since ordered once from the US and once from Canada. Both have arrived safe and sound. Can get some really nice prices (and strains) overseas and considering the price of UK domestic bud i usually have no choice but to import.  =(

Have had a few packages sent from the US with no problems at all. As stated above there are definitely massive incentives to buy from Cali or Canada. I have to say there strains, for me, as much as i hate to admit is blow most European bud out the water. The only thing that puts me off ordering more is the waiting times that are to be expected. I hate waiting lol :(

Hi raistlin and right onion, what strains do you have to go international for? Would be interested in knowing what strains are attracting your interest.

Personally I love the classic OG kush. Really nice high. If I were you I would have a look at Puffdaddy. I have been wanting to order from him in a while. His haze at the moment is on the expensive side but i think the picture warrants the price tag. Really really frosted nugs. Looks delicious :)

Hmmm, interesting.

I am looking to start vending soon from the UK and will shortly be starting an OG lush grow from some cuttings sent from the US so perhaps I will be able to provide a domestic source of OG kush.

I have just finished harvesting some jack herer, which is crystal covered and very tasty. I am not a huge grower probably just going to offer whatever I have over and above my personal. But I grow my bud to smoke myself so I value quality over quantity. If I get round to setting up a vendor account I will make a post on the discussion page so you can see some pics of the product.

The OG will be at least 3 months away however. I currently have Sage and Vanilla Kush also on the go alongside the Jack Herer.

I wish you the best of luck UKMJ. There is definitely a place for a grower in the UK producing genuine high grade. There is a real lack of top shelf weed in this country. Let me know when you get your vendor account and I will be the first to order :) When do you think that may be?

You growing indoors our out?

I traveled the states a few years back and although, yes their weed is very very good - I still believe the Dutch weed is where it's at.

I used to think that until I scored some bud on Venice Beach. Supposedly it was "King Kush". Huge purple nuggets, that sat by me all day on the beach as i passed the time away :P

Indoor as UK weather is not reliable enough for outdoor.

Probably by next weekend as it is currently on about day 7 of the curing process, I like to cure for at least 10 days, however the unseasonable recent heat has meant it drying somewhat faster than normal.

Fair. I always think it is a shame growers cant afford to cure there buds longer. The benefit in taste is huge after a good 2 months in a glass jar.  When do you think you will have account up by?

"Hi raistlin and right onion, what strains do you have to go international for? Would be interested in knowing what strains are attracting your interest."

heya UKMJ,
thinking of looking over the water more just for the range and to try something new, grape ape. green crack, chemo kush and alaskan clusterfuck ( but more just because of the name of that one lol )
Kush;s have to be my favourite - be really really interested in a reliable source of OG!!!
Thats some nice crop you have going - Jack herer blew me away when i tried it.
If you do set up an account i will certainly be a customer for you - that fact that you grow it to smoke it is certainly a good thing ( as long as the timings right for me to have the bc waiting lol )

Big thank you to everyone thats chipped in to this thread - will place an order at end of month and update somewere on forums how it goes.
Peace
