still poison.....


If you drink 5 liters of Alcohol, You will die......


If I smoke 50 joints, I might get tired and a sore throat... (Possible chance of MAYBE getting cancer) 1% or more like .005% ?


All things should be okay in moderation while using common sense.....
Yes, of course, in terms of temperance and reasonableness. But I personally know many of my friends who started  with marijuana and finished with heroin, later they died after 2 .. 3 years. No one can change my mind after I've been to their funerals.

I don't do heroin bc it's a gateway drug. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desomorphine

I have grown my own pot before and my main goal was to have absolutely no fertilizers left over in the plants when harvested.


I pretty much made sure the plant was dying due to lack of fertz before harvesting.

I don't smoke anymore but back when I was at university I was a fucking cannabis connoisseur. The best bud, in my opinion, is totally organic stuff. That's made with no chemical ferts, just organic shit like worm castings etc. It was pretty difficult to get hold of, because artificially fertilized stuff grows bigger yields and is often a more potent smoke, but in terms of flavour the natural shit was second to none. A buddy of mine grew like that one year, it was NYC Diesel and he tenderly nurtured those plants like they were his children, and only used totally organic fertilizers. He even used to spend as much time as possible in the grow room, sitting there reading a book, in the belief that his lungs would manufacture more carbon dioxide for the plant.

His devotion really paid off. It was the best smoke I have ever had. When it was properly cured (another thing that most commercial growers don't bother with),the taste was phenomenal. Like an explosion of grapefruit, and the smoke was so smooth. Nothing else I have ever smoked came close. I've smoked way stronger weed, but it was strong enough, and nothing else has been as pleasurable. Even in Amsterdam nothing came close.

If you grow again then I recommend that route.


I would do a 2/3rd chemical fert.... with a 1/3rd organic mix.... I would brew my own teas using stuff like castings, beneficial microbes. Carbs n sugars to feed the bennes Smiley

mj is a gateway drug cuz its associated with the hard drugs.

I can imagige that people selling MJ also sell harder drugs and these are way more profitable so they influence their customers to "try something new". The customer is not very well educated about the harder drugs (a flaw of our educational system in my mind) and so he "falls for it".

If weed was legally obtainable, that problem wouldn't exist.

IMHO, if SR get out of business, a lot of other (legal or not) business will have a so large portion of the BTC volume traded, that SR closing down would'nt affect the ratio at wich BTC trades against other currency.  Maybe it's already the case.. I dont know wich part of the volume of trade occurs just because of SR.  It may just diminish, and quite fast.. maybe in few month, SR will represent less than 1% of the total BTC traded..if it's not the case already.

I think SR and it's affiliates need to focus more on providing legitimate product, who's to say the 'herb' people buy on their wasn't grown with radioactive pesticides or next to a town dump? 

What in God's name are you talking about?

Who the fuck is going around irradiating pesticides? What a bizarre conjecture. Are you worried that weed growers use black market pesticides that was stored near Fukushima?

The reality is that weed growers take at least as much care over their crop as the farmer does with the wheat that goes into the bread you eat. In fact, they usually take much more care, because the crop is so valuable. They aren't growing it near dumps, or spraying radioactive pesticide on it. Think about it: if you had a plant that is worth $2000 if you grow it right, or nothing if you fuck it up, would you just grow it somewhere shitty and hope for the best?

The radioactive pesticide thing is nuts by the way, you couldn't even find radioactive pesticide if you were looking for them. I can't even begin to imagine what you were thinking with that one.

C'mon man, think before you type.

Seems to be working okay.. I have noticed if the site doesn't load on the first try, you can't just hit "try again". You have to enter in the url again.. it adds a www. in front of the regular url and causes it not to work..


This is what's happened to me....




you can make the www not happen in the browser settings


It never did it before... Seems like something new.

I think the fact that it negates street crime is a good thing, and it's secure in that it is anonymous.  So it would be beneficial to just leave it at that, but drug users have a history of acting strange when high.  That being said, I do see some good coming out of the fact that you can buy prescription drugs without having to give your identity; the way prescriptions are meant to be...

It's obviously had a lot of work and time put into it, I doubt it will crash due to an error such as leaking information or a bust.

I did an independant study of gateway drugs that lead to heroin use. There is the tendancy to make the connection that marijuana users are more likely to use heroin based on the fact that ~85% of heroin users had used marijuana prior to trying heroin, a staggering number! However, our research showed an even more powerful influence; As it turns out, ~97% of heroin users had previously enjoyed Coca-cola products. How did the original study overlook this fact? It was shocking, and changed the way we looked at drug abusers. Coca-cola is the biggest known gateway drug currently, and I would advise anyone without the willpower to resist, to stop enjoying this beverage entirely before you enter the downward spiral that is hardcore drug abuse. You have been warned.

ah, thanks. I always use potatoes instead of coca-cola. Your version is much better! thanks, will use!

Except you would need to normalize it against the entire population.  When you do that, the 97% Coca-cola usage is not as large of a deviation from the norm as the 85% marijuana usage.

That said, the idea that marijuana use leads to heroin is absurd.  What you really need to look at is how many marijuana users begin using heroin.  However, because of its legal status it is next to impossible to properly study the population of marijuana users.

MJ can definitely be a gateway drug -- I am living proof of that -- But heroin and PCP are the only classical recreational drugs I have not tried (yet), and honestly I don't see myself trying them any time soon.  Take it for whatever it's worth.
