Did I get ripped off with White Widow or it needs curing?

So a sort-of-friend/beer store guy sold me 2 grams of WW and he said it was good quality but I've never smoked it before so I don't know:

The buds seem to have lots of sugary crystals, I used vaporizer and the taste/smell is like Frankincense but I'm super clear-headed right now, my body feels relaxed and sedated but I don't feel high at all and the stuff doesn't feel strong nor I'm stoned.

So I either got ripped off or this thing needs curing? I'm sort of a noob, and smoke less than 5 grams per month so I don't know the diff between uncured and cured effects but I heard cured is stronger?

I remember the guy said something about a white widow harvest that was almost ready I don't know if this was part of it.

theres no way to tell what bud you have , anyone can push something as any strain they want
theres no way to 100% prove what you have is white widow strain.

a photo would tell us if it was cured or uncured , but most likely if hes selling it to people its been cured.

Yeah there's no way to tell, it could be anything at all or it could be real white widow and still be completely different to my white widow cos there's so many different types now. I'm growing white widows myself and was reading some strain reviews the other day and they were all totally different. One person said they'd bought it 3 times while on holiday in Amsterdam, different brands each time, and left three different reviews! I suppose different breeders breed in different traits, maybe?

So I checked the buds this morning and I don't think they're cured: the stems don't break, in fact they're pretty flexible. So it will need curing, however I can hardly see this getting better.

Yesterday all I got was sedated feeling on my body not even comfortable, didn't get me high, the music never sounded better, I couldn't concentrate, couldn't meditate, couldn't follow my language classes, also it made me sneeze a lot and gave me sinusitis, this morning I have some sort of hangover. In other words, it was absolute crap.

Curing doesnt make you get more high. Sorry man. If its dry enough to sell and it isnt still wet, then its bunk. Try rolling joints, youll get more high. And white widow is a strain from decades ago that every breeder seems to have the original, they sell it to guys that dont realize that its just a name now.

I don't like Indicas but this is the only think I was able to get for the moment, but Jesus, it seemed it just didn't work with my chemistry at all, so I just don't know if it was badly grown/not compatible with me or I should smoke it instead of vaporize it.

Its not full indica, depending source it can be quite sativa.


Dont blame grower put up a pic. Likely its properly grown and taken care of. Hence the frost, and little degradation has taken place
Your supposed to be clear headed and functional off thc. Cbn is probly what yiur mixing effects with

The few main cannabinoids are compatible with all of us









Always smoke it, better and more effect

I' gonna post a picture tomorrow when there's more light, I could also use the jeweler's loupe to get a close up.

Yesterday I started with just a little bit cuz I was afraid of its famous strength, then nothing, I thought it was a creeper, then started increasing the dose, until I vaporized it all and I was like what the fuck? Basically no effect.

After 4 months cure my buds are gooey goodness and plenty flexible at 55-60rh




So it will need curing, however I can hardly see this getting better.

Curing is an aerobic process working through gas exchange ie respiration and hydrolysis breaking down the plant without nutrient uptake. High rh keeps stomatas open like a cutting and starches chlorophyll etc breaks down..
Som esters alcohols terps etc combine-polymerize. Giving a heavier Boiling poiNt. They last longer and stink more, also more likely to hit receptors as most terps do



Yesterday all I got was sedated feeling on my body not even comfortable

Thats opinionated, a description is what we need. Sedated feeling, cool it had some cbd


, didn't get me high, didnt give you a psychadelic high? You can be high and not realize it.....



the music never sounded better, I couldn't concentrate, couldn't meditate, couldn't follow my language classes cause high cough cough, also it made me sneeze a lot and gave me sinusitis, likely due to a specific terpene

, this morning I have some sort of hangover. Yes its from the long half life of these compounds. A lerhargic almost drea like hangover.


In other words, it was absolute dank.


Good day




Creeper? No

You only bought 2 grams, how can you still have any left to post pics of?? No wonder you weren't stoned!

Well that's the thing, I use an IMAG herb portable vaporizer, it is like a pen but it fits 1/8 of a gram maybe even less but that's been getting me high all the time, just recently I've started vaporizing once a day almost daily and I've noticed my resistance has increased, maybe I would need 30% more to get high but that doesn't justify vaping the whole 1/8 and just getting my body sedated with no good feelings, compared to Durban Poison, Critical Mass or Blue Dream which are the other strains I have left. They all do the job with that 1/8 but not WW.

Yeah it obviously just doesn't suit you. My first thought, to be honest, was, if you're not stoned enough then smoke more! But if you don't like the feeling I guess that doesn't work. I know my tolerance has gone up massively in the last few months so maybe it is that and you're just smoking less potent weed than you're used to? Sorry man, nothing worse than disappointing weed...
