Question: Since we've obviously debated the topic of whether or not marijuana is good/bad and whether or not it should be legalized or not plenty now...I was curious last night as to how much marijuana costs...I'm sure different kinds will cost different, but what's a general amount, and how much per year do you think you're spending on that?

Around here you get ~1g for 10€ (14$) and ~2g for the same price for the home grown stuff.

I spend way too much on it.

How long does 1 gram last?  Is it enough for getting high for a night...a couple hours???

It depends on people. For me, usualy we get 2-3 out of it. Which lasts for a night or so (like we start in late afternoon/evening and end in the middle of the night, with 2-4 people).

For one person, that should be enough for 2-3 days, since you roll smaller ones and smoke less as well.

Since I made a beer thread, I have to make this thread considering weed is my favorite drug. 

You have to now? What happened? Women got you chained down to do it? Ruff.

It is a shame that USA still has it illegal. 

You can have like a joint or a bud where I live(in USA) and they don't do shit most the time.

Also, what the hell is up with it listed as Schedule 1 drug (grouped with heroin, etc). 

Canadians... They hopped the border so little it hopped up to Schedule 1 and no one noticed.

  Marijuana is the safest drug on the planet.  This thread is to discuss all things about marijuana. 

People have died from driving while stoned... Dude... H2O is the safest drug on the planet.

 Also, I want you to list your favorite strain.

Kush Variants

  Mine probably now has to be Blue Dream.  However, Purple Haze will always have a special place in my heart (along with White Widow). 

Those are really old strains... You need to try the stuff they buff out with steroids and genitically alter... IT's not even weed anymore. THE ROOTS ARE AS BIG AROUND AS COCONUT TREES! The balls on the male plants look like COCONUTS! The female plants have red hairs two feet long and the THC crystals are as big as grapes... Kay maybe I'm exaturating a bit. Also white widow and Purple haze were pretty good. I don't even know what I'm saying...

 What is your favorite smoking device?  Mine is a glass pipe or bong.  Steamrollers hit pretty heavy though and you can't forget about a 3 liter GB which can knock you on your ass.

Bongs. Big bongs. I'm the BigBongDemon, After all.

  Unfortunately, I have to quit right now to clean my system out since my current job is about to lay everyone off.

You FIRE THEM. 

Marijuana might have made me lazy or eat too much (when stoned as hell) but least I can drive while stoned as shit.  The same can't be said about alcohol...

Maybe not for you but I know tons of people who drive drunk completely fine(not that there's support from me to them)

  Also, weed needs to be cheaper.  KB is too damn overpriced. 

Weed grows... In the ground. It's free.

DREAMSQEEZER!

Drugs are bad/end thread.


So you can safely say you've never done any drugs?  Ever smoke a cigarette?  You've done a drug.  Ever drink a Coca-Cola?  You've done a drug.  Ever taken an advil?  You've done a drug.  Fact is marijuana is the safest drug on this planet.



Ever breath? You're addicted to oxygen. Ever eat? You've now done a drug. IT will have bad side effects too (shitting, feeling hungry again and again, a never ending cycle...) Ever dream at night? You've now done the drug DMT. Your brain produces it. Ever suck your mommas nipples or drink milk? Hundreds of chemical(drugs) in mommas milk and cows milk. Yep we're all junkies.

You know exactly what he meant when he said that...and whether or not it is called a "drug," don't tell me you honestly put caffeine on the same level as marijuana

They are drugs and caffeine is actually worse for the body.  You can overdose on caffeine but you can't overdose on marijuana. Fact is more people die from overdosing on over the counter medicine such as advil.  Find me a case where someone died from overdosing on marijuana.  Oh wait...  You can't...  Yes, I view those type of drugs as worse than weed because they are in fact worse.  Also, putting /end thread is a very lame response.  If you ask me people that post that are pathetic (I've lost any respect I've had for you oldschoolfool).

I need to ask you a question, have you ever seen somebody who smoked way too much pot in their lives?  Brain-dead is the only way I can possibly describe them.  Pretty much anything can be bad if you have way too much of it.

This isn't to say, however, that if taken in moderation, I see marijuana as any worse than the other things, because if done in moderation, there really are no known effects to it, just like with caffeine, advil , and anything else, there aren't going to be significant effects if you don't overkill it.  The same actually goes with alcohol too, overkill is bad for you, while 1-2 drinks per day they now say can actually be very healthy for you.

Edit: Also thought I'd mention, I do agree that it is a massive waste of money and time to have marijuana as an illegal drug...mostly for the reasons I listed above.

Also, I think the major problem a LOT of people have with marijuana is all of the studies that try indicating it is a gateway drug that leads to things such as heroine, smoking cigarettes, etc.

I smoke more weed then a freightrain that weed is the coal for. It makes me smarter faster stronger longer(penally), less fertile(but I have super sperm and can shoot the ceiling sometimes so, no issue). I don't think you've known IT. Do you have IT?

Smoking way too much pot has positive effects. But... Being stupid while doing it causes brain malfunctions of the prolonged stoner that's 'smoked too much weed'.. I can tell you this for certain...

There are known effects. What about clogging your lungs and making you hack up black tar eventually? Even moderate use over a prolonged period can cause this,

The highest quality bud is falling in my state. It used to cost $50 an 8th, than when the Medical MJ hit the streets it soared to $ 60 an 8th. Than the bud quality got so high (pun intended) and the state had more bud than customers and the price has fallen to about $35-$45 an 8th depending on how you get it. This is Medical prices as I do not deal with the blackmarket anymore.

Though the black market seems to follow the MMJ prices because it is so easy for the criminals :) to get MMJ from their friends the honest citizens.      If you didn't know I am talking about Colorado. I also do not know about low quality shwaggy, Mexican weed anymore because sensimelia is the standard here.

By 8th, do you mean 1/8th of a gram?  So is it literally 1/4th the price where he lives for 8 times more?

By where he lives, I'm referring to the above poster who already responded :)

An 8th is the mmost standard amount sold in Colorado which is 1/8 an ounce which equals about 3.4g.

Redoing my simple algebra, I get $11.76 per gram and I still estimate it is $7-8 a gram if you by an ounce.

I do not know were that dude is from and I do not know if he is taking about premium weed only, basically sensimelia.
