When I used to indulge we also called the crummy stuff ditchweed. All the rest was just ‘heenie’.

We’ve got schwag and kb here. In high school my friends called it budda or geef, but then they were weird even by high school pothead standards.

And if you thought “Smoke up” vs “Smoke out” was bad, a girl I knew from Michigan used to “Smoke down.” Crazy shite.

I’d be wary of anything coated with white crystals. While it may be THC, it’s more likely to be PCP tranquilizer or cocaine. Both of those drugs carry their own bag of difficulties, and they’re a whole lot stranger than the true bud itself.
