One of the greatest concerns for Pedro and the boys has always been
'cannabis combustión espontánea OG Dios mío!' (spontaneous combustion)
his answer to that, was to get the product over the border as quick as he can

tho I saw no tea being used to glue the bricks, sacking and fencing wire were,
at least for the transport side of things, on many occasions to Mexico I tried to advise these guys
but really they are just too dumb, and know nothing or are not interested in in form of quality control
as the local USA market moves to legal use its all bad news to these guys and other 3rd world farmers

You guys say whatever but ive had some seriously amazing brick weed from different points of the globe, south africam the caribean and thailand. Shit even bhurmese once just not that strong though tste was like a fine tea.
The best brick weed i ever had was probably thai. Tbh i still yearn for that high sometimes. I was told that the people who do the bricking should know how long the transport trip takes cause thats usually basically the curing time it is given and dry it more or less, tigthen bricks more or less according to length of the trip. Good brick should be like a brick is a whole bud, or it begins behaving that way in regards to holding moisture. Shit even the well cured vacuum packed keys of amnesia became like that, whats deep inside that chunk is fucking uuuuuuunreal. God i miss both that thai and that a grade amnesia that came compacted, one much less than the other obviously.
Tbh call me stupiud if you wantm i actually think compressing the buds so much breakes up certain trchomes releasing certain oils and whatever else that with time enhance the curing process.
People in these places dont bother making hash cause the yield off these strains is too low. You go to any countries where hash is made and if people see you smoking flowers they think youre like a refugeeing peasant, strange but true.

Glad to see some reasonable people on here...too many times the youth just hear the term "brickweed" and the Pavlovian response is "Man, that stuffs garbage"..Brickweed can be great weed at times...some of the best I have ever had was bricked up from Oaxaca and Acapulco from Mexico back in the day. I'd give a left nut for some of those seeds I threw away like trash...remember using the double album and a playing card to seed it out? I'm with the member who wanted to brick up a little for long term storage...I'm in...
lol yeah there are so many misconceptions about weed that ppl preach...Lotta people out there (n here I'm sure) that think bag appeal = potency apparently...I shit you guys not - the best weed I ever smoked was straight up brown. Not a hint of green...at first I thought it would be horrible but it tasted good, smelled like your typical brick weed n blew EVERYBODY out that hit it. Everyone thought the shit was laced but I know a MJ high when I feel it (n everything n between) n that shit was just potent AF...

My good friend always thinks he can just look at weed and decide if it's good or not N i always wanna slap him across the face cuz that's just ridiculous.

I agree with KLITE about the Thai. We used to get bricks of Thai sticks back in the '70's that are still some of the best and most potent bud I've ever smoked, and the taste was so unique. I've never found anything that comes close to the taste of the old Thai sticks.

Lol i know bro and what im talking about isnt even thai stick!
Is there not a lot of variety of afghani hashes around in the US? Evading countries tend to have soldiers bring back some decent stuff... Man when i was in the uk i smoked some seriously specialist stuff, all sorts of different regions even brand name ones lol i fucking mis afghani hash! The best i had was this cream from a region that has like something i something but not mazar i shariff. Or the name of the hash was that something i something,. Anywyas top 3 hash ive ever smoked. Id love to get hold of some land races from over there. Only sensi seeds has a few and theyve let their genetic stock go to shit so... Join the army i suppose.

Just for my own personal knowledge, was wondering how brick weed is made... Obviously its not manicured, dried, and jarred like the rest of us would do (or similar). I'm thinking it gets hung and dried for the first few days, then compressed into bricks; but, is that all there is to it? I've smoked some killer smelling/tasing brick weed and just wondering if all you have to do is compressess it, what's the point of jars, etc, for curing... I assume they are doing it in the fastest and most idiot proof way possible to prepare it for market. I'd like to make a small brick for long term storage for those dry spells, or if nothing else, make it just for the fun of it - but don't want to waste that much weed experimenting...

Thanks for any insight bongsmilie
they compress it with like a paper press we use to do small amounts in old gun barrel's put ur weed in the barrel then hard metal at one end and a hammer and a slide that will fit down the barrel oxy flame and ur set not gunna tell u how its done trade secret ;) few other things u need to add to make it come together other wise ur just gunna be smashing it to dust but its pretty straight forward

Kinda going along with the topic, I cut my plant down last night and apparently dropped a bud and stepped on it. Somehow it war completely dry today when I found it, smoked it and it was pretty good. Has anybody heard of quick drying like that? Its the best Reggie looking stuff I have smoked.

I've got an odd question for you guys - I noticed a lot of 'brick' weed back in the day (relative, I'm kinda young) seemed to have a similar smell to it - someone told me it's because they use formaldehyde to cover up the scent of weed from K-9's n shit to get it across the border...is that just BS or do you think there was any merit to that? It was weird because you could get it from different suppliers, different towns and different times of the year and all of it smelled that way...anything we'd get that was compressed had that same 'odor' to it. I tried to stay away from it because the idea of smoking formaldehyde kinda freaked me out so we just kinda used it to nickle n dime (yeh kinda shitty to sell it to other people if I thought it wasn't something I'd like to smoke, but I didn't have much for morals at the time) and picked up mids for personal or w.e. Just kinda curious if anyone else has heard of that

I have seen it packaged and Idk what they put on it, looked like motor oil. But yeah they airtight the packages with that mixed in, its usually not touching the weed though unless the person buying it opened up the package wrong

Honestly it is a machine like any other it will keep grinding on. They will figure something else out. Maybe something we haven’t thought of yet. It never stops.

what makes it brick weed

like vos said but the other method is simpler

they cut the whole plant .........from there they take it to a drying place hang the place full of them and then use propain heaters to dry the air out and decrease the drytime (they do not clip shit cut from ground hang it fast dry) .......after 72 hours or less it is taken down and they cut off buds and branches into trash compactors used for this ........full thing compact it u guy got a brick of weed

they cut there shit when it is too soon then they degrade the thc even more with the dry method they do .......it is all a volume to ppl doing bricks

a brick in my area use to be 2.5 lbs back in the day
