Greetings and Compliments of the Season to you all, Seems our local SAPS are bored and have left the real crime fighting to instead "hunt" down our beloved plant A company called "achievers security" seem to have played a part in this, (according to face book) but on IOl it seems to be the SAPS that did all the "hard" work.. what ever the case, they all a bunch of dumbasses! works out to be +- R281/gram must have been good stuff coz SAPS often claim its R1/gram... Here's the article from Iol, http://www.iol.co.za/news/crime-courts/raid-nets-dagga-haul-worth-r2m-1.1800029#.VKKR8cASAA Wishing you all a smoking good New Year!

Welcome,

Bummer! Was hoping it wasn't true, What pisses me off the most is, the cover ups behind the scenes, the media are used to spew propaganda in favour of what the Gov want us to see and or hear, there is a lot of news that never makes the mainstream media, there was a blow up down here in kzn the other day when a cop made mention on how they were told to "hide" or remain silent on certain happenings as they made the cops look bad, thus when they do get something "right" the media is given full permission to blow it up and make it as sensational and head line grabbing as possible.

Am I hearing things.. was there a big bust in Gauteng area today or yesterday? A work colleague says he heard the news on 5 FM earlier? Apparently huge hydro setup got taken down, and a good couple of peeps involved were arrested? :cursing Its High time 'scuse the pun our bloody laws changed, the cops are too blinkered to think alternatively, the justice system is faulty, as it seems you get a harsher sentence for possession/growing than you do for a schedule one offence?

Am in KZN, next question would be who would be the closets or best to use should I want to order? Have seen Nguni, and greensmoke are there any others or suggested outlets.. would love to get my hands on some northern lights and or some other nice strains, as I use mostly for a range of different medical reasons, from PTSD to Depression to insomnia etc.. my local junk I am getting to make my butter is nasty (1 0 0 for two hands), too many pips and twigs etc, my spliff stash is better but I can't get the volumes I need to make butter... Thus one or two plants of a decent strain would help greatly in my butter making. Peace!

What are you worried about Skot? Staying totally anonymous when doing the transaction, and another concern is who can be trusted?

Thank you Maxwell, Thank you, I suspected the same, sadly, I haven't managed to procure any seed bank or known strain seeds, all I have is the odd seed I have found in and amongst my odd buy from mates, One day I will be brave enough to explore the buying of quality seeds over the net...

Thank you, Interesting info at this stage I take what ever I can get through my mates, until my ladies have grown up I will be at the mercy of the unknown strain...

Greetings Newb Question: I was wondering if for interests sake I managed to get hold of some buds via someone that knows someone but that first someone didn't know of what strain the bud was, would it be possible to identify the strain by looking at the bud? Or how would one go about identifying the strain if you did not know the strain of the plant in the first place... Can it even be done or would one need to see the mature plant in situ ?

Thank you 4207365 Some interesting info there,

Thank you Maxwell, How easily is Iso and or butane available? The only Isopropyl I could find was at diskem, Any ideas on where I can begin my search?

Greetings Fellow 'erb Enthusiasts , Being a new convert to the way of weed, my "experience" is relatively limited to the online research I have done, so bear with me please if I ask lame or silly questions, In the US they use naptha or Everclear to extract oils from the buds to make their concentrated oil, I was wondering what the equivalent would be here in SA , my browsing hasn't shown up anything with a high proof or content that can be used? I recently used some vodka as a test and with a batch of scruffy unknown weed I got from my local, I managed a small yield of pretty low quality oil, that I used as a tincture on my dogs tumour op, in co ordination with the daily edible dosage he gets for his arthritis. So, basically the question would be is there anything out there that is easily available to the man on the street so to speak that could be used for extraction?

Is nationalisation a good thing? Not to be devils advocate but I would prefer decriminalisation, but 'spose any talk and or action in the right direction is a good thing...
