FedGov is selling weed

[scruffy]

It's expensive, too. $174 a gram.

This is NIST, the government standards people

For some reason they're interested in exactly how potent our weed is.

As part of an ongoing effort to help testing laboratories more reliably determine the potency and purity of marijuana and hemp, a federal science agency has begun selling packages of what it’s calling “some of the most carefully quantified cannabis ever sold.” Picking up 4.5 grams of the stuff...

I don't smoke but I could get it for free if I did.

The government couldn't sell ice water in Hell.

lol

I don't smoke anymore, but I still get it for free all the time. I just give it away. Sometimes I trade it for guitars n stuff.

I should start smoking again. I have too much stress. Except then I couldn't be a paragon of virtue for my kids.

That is certainly a rip-off price. Potency be damned. Legal weed people talk about how much more potent, weed is now, but it is all hipe, mostly by people not around during the 70s for the exotic strains available on the free market of the time. The best legal weed, I have bought in Colorado is not even in the running. Kids these days, just don't know.

Do you remember lids?

How about 4-finger bags?

Ha ha - you beat me to it.

Oh yeah.

Hmm, how much would a "dime bag" of that stuff be?

I guess about $348.

I dunno.... best 70's weed was the Thai sticks, and today's weed is considerably better. (And almost as tasty).

Enough to roll a couple of "J's" the size of tampons.

But just Tampico Ditch Weed, all stems and seeds.

4 fingers was really before my time, it was down to 3 in my day. Lids were just before my time, too.

I mean I saw 'em and knew about it, but was young.

Look at this - there was nothing better in the 70's.

Are you saying the government weed is like Mexican brown dirt?

Pretty exotic, looks like some kind of Indica kush sense.

I liked Thai stick and this Jamaican yellow. Good stuff for doing projects, and melike projects!

Not at all... the stoners of the '60s went to school, got PhDs in Botany and Pharmacology and now we have super weed that put our old weed to shame.

I'm just recalling my childhood.

You Almost gotta laugh that the federal government spends billions in legitimate ads that try to convince Americans that tobacco smoke is bad for them but at the same time the government tells Americans that smoking weed is good.
