Is skunk really stronger than normal dope ?

I’m not calling you a liar, but how did you trip by smoking weed? I’ve had skunk before and while the high was very potent and I was zoned out for a good two hours, I have never tripped from smoking weed. Again, not saying you’re lying, but what do you mean “trip”? You actually mentally tripped like you do on LSD?

Similar to shrooms but less pleasant. Read the link I posted about THC overdose - like that but not quite as bad. Huge buzzing in my head, visual distortions, psychedelic lightshows when I closed my eyes, auditory hallucinations, inability to speak. THC is a hallucinogen like all the rest, just usually taken in a milder dose (according to Encyclopaedia Britannica anyway).

I don’t have to jump to jjimm’s defence, but he wasn’t smoking it. A huge oral dose of cannabis very trippy. Many tourists in Amsterdam have made the mistake of munching down two or three space muffins and gone to the land of wonder as a result.

@Q.E.D.

It’s not the leaves that make up the bulk of pot, but the dried flowering tops of the plants, specifically, those of the female plant.

You’re right, of course, I was speaking too loosely, oir, if you will, wrongly. The point remains that the pressed resin was far more familiar on the streets of the UK in the 60s than the loose vegetable matter that was grass

Thanks for the clarification, but actually, though the bhang lassi was ingested, the skunk I’ve had was indeed smoked. And I tripped - or at least, my definition of a trip. If anyone doesn’t believe me, take a trip to Amsterdam.

Since the OP has been pretty well answered, and the topic is a touchy one for the board, let’s close this one.
