hes pretty much got it there...no bud grows like it looks when you get a bag of schwag its just been handled through a few dealers and its been bricked up usually so it loses alot of THC and turns brown because its fairly old....the seeds come from it being in a huge field most of the time and they dont get rid of males everything just grows and they rake it all down

So are the leaves good for anything? do they have any THC? i heard that you could make brownies with the grinded leaves is that true? are they good for anything else?

yes the leaves carry low levels of thc but you can make bronies but only use the leaves that you cut off during the harvesting stage!!!

While there is some thc in the fan leaves, the bulk is in glangular trichomes. If they are not readily visible to the naked eye, that leaf is to be put in a pile called " this will get me high, but won't cure the frunstration caused extracting that buzz ", and if they are visible those leaves go into a pile called " food/hash/oil " Like stated, shwag is tipicaly imported brick weed. It may or may not have been grown well, but it most certainly has been treated poorly. When I travel, I use my hash press to compress 1g bud into a disk the size of three US dimes stacked together. It can be the finest tasting connoisseur stuff, and when I get in to the rental car and pack that first bowl, I can hardly recognize the taste. Only earthy hazes compress well, all berry/fruit notes are gone. Much shwag is seeded andwirh none can you be sure you aren't smoking pesticides, chemical polutants ,and worse. Some shwag a domestic and poorly grown. Couple this with lack of proper cure and and crappy transporting, and you more often than not end up smoking vegetative matter as opposed to thc rich oils and resins. True compressing keeps the trichomes contained inside the buds, they usualy rupture and the cannabinoids oxydize and degrade to less psychoactive, more sedative, or even wholly ineffective compounds.

Harsh. If I didn't know any better, I'd say that ya'll got something against Beaners & Taco-benders.
Not all schwag is Mexican. In fact, I'd bet that some of it starts out as good genetics. My bagseed grows bear that out. You just cannot get the kind of quality with a large commercial grow that you can in one of our "little" gardens.
It's like with anything else. You can have quality...... or quantity. Take your pick, you cant have both.
I have envisioned trying to pamper a large grow like I do mine, and I'll tell you that it would be a full time job just about trying to tend a hundred or so plants as carefully as I do the 12 I have.
Somehow, at some point all shit weed got classified as "Mexican Dirt".

Wrong, wrong, wrong - you need to meet the right people. I lived in Naptown all my life and always smoked nugs. In fact, it's hard to find schwag in my experience. So, I lament your situation, but I can guarantee you that your description of Indy is mostly false. I know many growers there and they keep the city well supplied. Go to the Patio in Broad Ripple on a weekend and ask around - you'll get what you want. Otherwise, try Speedway bars.
