Clarifying Beasters, Mids, and Headies

I am still defenitly a beginer with marijuana still. I have been hearing talk of these words specifically since i have Ventured into this world. I was having a discussion with my friend, I was like " I heard that sativa based plants give you a different high I want to try um" and he said " o you mean headies" and I asked "I thought headies means just really good nug?" He is like it does but it means sativa, beasters are indica and mids is lower quality of both. He confused me. Is this right and if it isn't how do you go about finding sativa vs indica and being able to tell? Do they really give different highs? When I was talking to my one friend about smoking he asked me the same question mids, beasters, or headies? I hear no one say they like sativa based herb over indica. Anyway if anyone could help would be appreciated

to tell you the truth iv never heard any of that slang besides mids, which around basically means mid quality dope. All the slang you will probably ever have to learn is.. alright shit.. good shit.. and excellent shit

ok, first of all - terminology is always changing, and is always different depending on where you live. In my experience, most dealers don't really get into the catagorization as much as the average stoner, since most dealers only sell one kind, at a time anyways. Generally speaking, headies/dank/chronic are strains that comprise of a mix of both indica and sativa genetics, for ease of growing.

to your second inquiry - yes, there is a difference. As you have heard, sativa strains produce a less crippling, more mentally-stimulating high. And, of course, the indica's produce the famous "couch-lock" high.

I can't say I prefer one over the other, as I enjoy both of them. its nice to have a really active high after a week of being too tired all the time.

Your friend is wrong completely.

I dont completely understand the difference between headies and beasters but basically..

Headies= Really good bud

Beasters=Good bud

Mids= Mid grade bud, its the stuff thats not bad but not great either.

Then the chain is schwag-low mids-(just mids? lol)-high mids-dank

But bud does give different highs for sure. Sativa is a more lazy and couchlocked smoke, you feel way more relaxed. While indica is a more exciting and head high which really is more of a fun high. Most of the time you will get a mix of both for example my weed at the moment is probably around 70% sativa 30% indica. I feel lazy, but also pretty excited.

I really am sorry if any of this stuff is wrong, but I know that my descriptions of the different highs might be opposite, as in sativa is more exited and indica is couchlock, but i think im right, according to many members on the city, and that the basic chain is correct.

Yah your buddy is confusing ya.

Mids - mid grade weed, not real great not real bad gets ya high dont make ya broke.

Beasters - Inbetween High mids and Dank, normally Hairy nugs around here.

Headies - Top quility bud best you can find, nice and crystally.

as far as Indica and Sativa go

Indica - Couch lock stoney hazy high, normally what I smoke when im hanging out playing video games.

Sativa - Uppity head high, I always feel like going out and having some fun when im smoking some good sativa bud.

^ I couldn't have said it any better ^

You have weird friends. I definitely prefer a Sativa High to an Indica high. I would rather not be couch-locked and tired.

Your friends got it twisted. Over here we dont say beaster or headies. We say dirt or shwagg for low quality psychoactive plant matter. Mids for Mid-grade, Gas for Upper mids and Dro for good Hydroponically grown bud and Dank or Presidential for High Quality and Exotics for Name-Brand bud.

The words "beasters" and "headies" aren't used in this area commonly, so I just ignore it when I see it on GC. lol.

Same, all we usualy say around he is Crypt, or regs. No one really buys mids. It's either shwagg, BC, or way dank.

doesn't matter, man. don't use that shit. "beasters" and "headies" can kick rocks, it's either dank or bammer, that's all there is to it.

We have a schwag-mids/middies-dank system here. Either it's schwag (bad weed, seedy and dirty), mids or middies (good weed, some seeds), or dank (great weed, hardly ever any seeds, crystally as hell).

High mids are either mass guerilla weed grown within the country, or really good mex. Usually high mids has like 1 seed per/ eighth, or is even seedless. It'll get you baked as fuck, but it's not three-hitter-quitter or anything like dank is. Not even one-bowl-quitter after you build a tolerance. It usually costs 240-280$/ounce.

Beasters can vary a lot. Some B.C. bud is just like as good as mids, but couchlocky, and usually not worth the price.. Some BC bud looks really good but smells like wet hay, weighs too much (because it's not totally dry), and doesn't really get you that high. When it does get you high, it's all couchlocky. These sell for as low as $220/ounce where I live, if you know people with a steady out-of-state supply of them (usually NY or around there). Then there are the really good beasters, basically dank but mass-grown in BC/Canada. These sell for like $400/ounce.

There's dank and then there's headies. Some people when they say dank/dro just mean good beasters that sell for $400/ounce. Sometimes it's really good local shit for $50/eighth. And then there's headies, incredible exotic stuff. Sells for 20$/gram, 65$/eighth. Like one of the headies connections I have right now buys haze directly in NYC and sells it for that price. It's worth it too, one-hitter-quitter often. Watch out for assholes passing off beasters or even high mids as headies. Like today we bought an eighth for 40$. It was some damn fine high mids, but it wasn't dank, and it should've cost less. He claimed it was *headies*. I was like "this is nothing to Sour Diesel or Trainwreck" "well yeah but those are *more* than headies man!"

I mean this stuff had one seed in the eighth, and it was immature. It smells citrusy and herbal, but it's nothing to write home about really.

In order to be considered "Headies" it needs too not only perfect quality but it has to be a rare or exotic strain.
