How's the weed in Amsterdam?

[spankyhaze]

Im just a little bit curious because i might be going there not sure when though but wondering how's the bud

[CustomMX6]

I'm sure they have what you need :) Alot of us are thinking of going.

[HeadChange]

Lol I'm sure the bud there is probably 10x better than you'd imagine.

THe bud in Amsterdam is pretty amazing. It's not JUST the bud either...its the has and concoctions MADE from bud and hash. The nice thing about the Dam' is they have bud of all types; you can get 5 grams of cheaper, yet joint friendly Jamacain weed for very cheap, and you an get some top notch Dutch bud or Nederhash for also real cheap (compared to US prices). Make sure you visit established clubs with good reviews....there are lpenty of crappy places in Amsterdam that have crappy weed.

ya ive heard that the weed in amstterdam isnt why you should go there...its the hash...thats what makes it world class.

[Thepurplem0nkey]

Harry, yeah. I'd have to agree with that. Dont get me wrong, Amsterdam has some amazing strains. But we ALL have had acces, at one point or another, to some top notch kush. As a med pot patient, I saee and smoke some strains that may as well ahe copme from Amsterdam.....the prices are just about 8X what they are over in the Dam. Their HUGE selection of "make you pass out" hash, hash oils, and hash goo that make it worth the trip and pretty uniqe. Plus, the atmoshpere (Serious, paranoid stoners like myself take some adjustment when in AMsterdam of the idea that you are legaly allowed to buy and smoke weed. Its a sureal feeling, and when you get bac to the US, you begin to look at OUR policies way of thinking, and how bizarre it is.) as well as the toatly legal (more so than weed) fungus strains available. All around, an excellent place to visit, the mecca if you enjoy marijuana.

im shure it is anyone who smokes pot dream to go to amstradam... ive never been but im prolly gunna go summer cant wait! how much is an ounce there, u think it would be like a buck a gram since its legal but i dunoo...

does anyone have recomdations of where to stay and where to buy sum reeeefer

[Thepurplem0nkey]

Spidy, there are already numerous threads addressing your questions (See my thread on Amsterdam in the FAQ section for detailed info). You acn not buy an ounce of weed, you can only buy 5 grams of weed at a time. A gram of top notch weed will run you about 8-12 bucks (depending on where you go and what you get).

A gram of top notch weed will run you about 8-12 bucks

damn! sometimes I pay about 14 a gram for some pretty dank shit but I bet its not even close to what they got over there.

FUCK dude thanks for reminding me im not in AMS. JK
OBM is fuckin on point like a razor
late summer like august is the best time to go
I went last year this time and it was cold
Most ppl go in a shop get a gram smoke it there and then go somewhere else, theres really no need to buy a whole ounce at one time especially since they dont really discount prices in bulk like over here.

thnx PM what about the summer months are they busy?
only places i had to wait when i went in late feb were the museums

[Thepurplem0nkey]

Isos, yeah, February I wouldnt expect to be crowded. BUt summertime....I have never been during that time, but all the books and all thet ravelers will tell you how packed it is during those months, and usualy packed with Americans. I love my country, but when I go to Europe, it's to see Europeans and their culture, not be surrounded by Americans.
Also, I'm sort of restricted to travel during the winter due to my medical conditin ;-)

we meet up with a couple americans that we kept on seeing so it was kinda cool to have ppl to chill with but for fucks sake I can't imagine how packed those places can get they are soooo tiny. lmao grey area is the smallest thing ever and barneys got full real quick so i can't imagine during peek seasons.

[Thepurplem0nkey]

Isos, one trip I was in Amsterdam from December 27th until January 10th. THe place was SO PACKED around new years, you had to wait an hour to get an open seat at Barneys, and you had to wait in line to get some bud. After the 3rd, the place was deserted. I got to chill with the Owners of The Grey Area and have some awesome converstaions, I got to sit down and relax with the owners of Barneys who gave me free Barney's lighters every time I acme in it was that empty, and I got to explore all of the shops in record time. THats why I don't understand why people pay so much money to go to the cannabis cup. Theya re pretty much shelling out hundreds of dollars for the privelage of going to the most crowded, jam packed event, to sample weed they could be sampling a month later, when the palce is deserted save for Europeans.
In the winter time, I usualy run into many Canadians and Australians, people I really enjoy hanging out with. Of course, there are also many EUropean traevlers out and about.
