Why is the price of weed so high in the uk?

Discussion in 'Apprentice Marijuana Consumption' started by wdamow, Jan 24, 2012.

  1. I recently started growing my own after being sick and tired of buying "8ths" which are actually 14ths and that's if you're lucky to get a full 2 grammer. It's often damp and ungrindable meaning a so called Henry can often last less than a day :-( is this just a Milton Keynes problem or is it like this everywhere?
     
  2. Your words seem familiar but the way you put them together looks foreign. I recommend bringing this up with your consulate.
     
  3. I just don't think there are all that many growers in the UK. There aren't as many deserted areas as there are in North America, which makes it harder to grow.
     
  4. I would suggest finding a dealer who actually gives you what you pay for.

    I buy from a variety of dealers and it's always the same
     
  6. u need betteer street cred then why people think ur a pluck?
     
  7. cos your a terrible person.
     
  8. I was looking for more serious answers, streed cred is for teenagers. The truth is that for some reason in Milton Keynes 2g is £20 no matter who you get it from.
     
  9. Andover Hampshire is pretty good for price. Also what is a Henry lol

    Henry the 8th :)
     
  11. Oh right haha
     
  12. You have to remember the UK is a smaller country, which means less people, which means less variety, also everything in the UK is a lot more expensive compared to america.

    £20 for 2g is the price over here, you wont get more unless you're lucky.

    Atleast we get consistently good weed though, i've never even seen 'schwag'
     
  13. Fuck it you're growing your own, like everyone should be doing. You get WAY more for your money as you probably know.
     
  14. Yeah good point it just feels like a long wait as this is my first grow
     
  15. I'm in London and it's exactly the same down here.

    I've started growing too. Will be so excited to have some good stuff in a couple of weeks
     
  16. Man, in Ireland it's 50euro for 3 grams. Maybe 3.5 if your lucky! Growing your own is the only option!
     
  17. Once you get started though, very beneficial :smoke:
     
  18. The dealers that give you good deals in the UK are usually quite hard to find, and from experience they don't have a constant supply, which leads you to resort to the shitty dealers in the mean-time. I've been getting 7g for £45 (he weighs it) and I've got some cash waiting to buy a half but he's not had any bud in for the past 2 weeks cause he's busy with his main job & his familly. I haven't smoke in nearly 3 weeks cause I just can't be fucked wasting my money on shitty deals anymore, growing isn't an option at the moment either.
     
  19. hi there im in essex and its more or less the same here get a 2.8 henry for 25 takes the piss
     

  20. You're not alone mate. It's the same every where. Unless you find yourself a good dealer or grow your own, you're pretty screwed. I#ve got the best of both worlds, my dealer is one of my closest friends (he was my friend for years before he started dealing) and he grows his own , so I get high quality and true weight (4.5 for an 8th, 2.5 for a ten) every time.

    But I've had that situation that you describe so many times before now. It can actually be depressing to see £20 go in 5 or 6 joints. The absolute worst deal I've ever got was a 3 joint 8th. Soul crushing.
