Hey, not going to name vendor until I get verification that this is a problem. I'm not inexperienced with smoking weed, however I have very little technical knowledge of it given that it rarely interests me.
I ordered 2g of weed a few days ago, its advertised as hydro, I don't recall whether or not it specifically stated 'bud' in the description.
What arrived seems to be a cutting from the plant, stem still attached. The stem is roughly 4-5mm diameter so its not just a tiny bit that I can let go as a mistake by vendor. It seems like 30-40% of the weight of the product could be stem.
Previously when ordering weed(albeit from different vendors) I've recieved a few buds, usually crushed, but very obviously bud.
Is this grounds to move to resolution? or is it not a big deal?

Hi, I'm not sure if I can help too much but I can tell you from my point of view as a stoner/grower is acceptable.
Firstly if you want a big bud, it has a big stem in the middle, end of conversation. Now I tend to take a very close angled cut to minimise the amount of stem but keep nice big buds together, I do my best to have no visible stem, if it isn't surrounded by bud it shouldn't be there.
That said, you should still really finalize, just reflect what you felt in the feedback, if there was stem sticking out you could point out that it was not particularly well manicured but personally I don't feel it is a reason for a majour complaint unless more than 25% of the weight was stem.
Stems are much lighter than buds provided they are properly dried, most of the wieght of bud(30%) is the resin, dry plant matter is very light so it probably didn't affect your weight too much.
Hope that helps, just ask if there is anything more I can be of help with
Jah Bless
