What can we expect out of Jamaica Ganja?

[hygieia]

Okay, now that we have our trip booked and i've scanned this site enough - I feel it is safe enough to ask this question. We are taking our first trip to Jamaica in 5 weeks, staying part of the time at Rooms and part of the time at Firefly. Curious about what we can expect in the form of herb there. We get very good stuff in the states, but I don't want to set my expectations high about Jamaica only to be disappointed.

You want be disappointed,that's all I'm gonna say

It depends. Lots of jamaican ganja isn 't all that strong. I know a guy in Negril that I trust and he supplies me with pretty good product. But considering the high grade hydro I get where I live its not great, but better then alot of the bunk guys will try to sell you. I just returned from 2 weeks in Port Antonio. I found 1 guy selling on winnifred beach that had really good stuff, I was impressed.

Yeah, that's my worry - I've been blessed here in the states with some fine herb. Any advice for us when we're there looking for good stuff? I know it is not legal and we have to be careful. A friend who stayed in Mo Bay told us to just talk to our cab driver when we leave the airport and are on our way to Negril - to find good stuff. Because yes, I have absolutely no interest wasting my time or money on dirt.

It's fresh, unlike most around here. Not great, but you make up in quantity what it lacks in quality. They generally don't take the effort to separate males from females, so it usually has seed. If you can get someone to take you up to Orange Hill, you can get a better deal (15-20 minute ride)

Better deal meaning better quality? Thanks for the advice.

just get a likkle at first to get u through, then u can "shop" around for a better quality....just like at hoime, buyer beware market....
ask ur gardener, maintence worker, security, etc....and then u can control the market, if u get my drift....dont appear to be in need....it has to be better than what i have, and what i have is pretty good....used this line many times and sometimes
u will be surprised at what shows up

go for about $20 worth at a time . . . and ask for something better --- there's definitely "tourist grade" for those that only eat subs in jamaica and don't know better
