US vs UK terminology

tristanmatthew · 10-13-2008, 09:38 PM

I've been used to US terminology for so long, I've come back to the UK, and have no idea what to ask for...

someone asked me if i wanted 'weed or skunk'... ive been under the impression weed was everything, and you get different types, like swag, dro, and exotics (which is usually really good dro)... obviously i know they have different names and such, but people dont tend to know that much over here.

if anyone can help me ask for the right good stuff, it'd be much appreciated

Fuck knows mate weed is skunk, green, in the UK everyone calls it diff things??

I call mine by its strain name,
usually shortened tho.. newyork... eastcoast... cheese... ect.
just explain that you want good bud!,
usually pretty hard to find in the UK, there is plenty crap bud around you can pick up quite easy, anywhere from 3.5 to 2 gram bag for 20 quid..

Oh and yea like Guano says!! Keep away from the dreaded Soapbar!!,
and Sprayed Buds!

you gotta look at what your getting ideally
