How To Improve Your Brick Weed

In the great world of ganja, there is one breed of bud which every marijuana connoisseur will come across at one point or another in life: Brick weed. It’s flat as fuck, often times exhibits multiple shades of brown, and generally comes stuffed full of seeds and unsightly stems. This is weed that should really only be used in blunts or bongs, but sometimes you just can’t find or afford nice buds.

With just a little bit of effort and maybe a dollar in supplies, you can make your brick weed bearable. This trick makes it smell better, smoke better, and look better within a few hours. All you need is an orange peel and a ziploc bag.

Take your orange peel, and rip it into a few decent sized pieces. If you are doing this for 1/2 O or less, use less than half of the peel.  For anything over a 1/2 O, use your own discretion- a full peel is good for up to 2
or 3 os. You do not want to add too much moisture as it will cause mold to flourish.

Line the bottom of the ziploc bag with a few pieces of peel, and put your weed on top of them. Put another piece or two of the peel over the weed, and  seal the bag shut. Roll it the bag up as you would any other weed bag, and store it where you feel like storing it. After 1 1/2 or 2 hours, open it up. Take everything out of the bag and leave the weed out on a tray or plate to dry it out. Once it has dried out, put it back in the bag with the peels as you had before. Allow the same amount of time to go by, and repeat the drying process.

You can repeat this moistening/ drying process as many times as you’d like- the more you do it, the fluffier and greener the weed gets, and the more it will loosen up- the seeds will fall right out of the buds and you will be able to pick out most stems with ease.

Some people will argue that this process adds weight to bud, and may be considered a “shady dealer” process. However this added weight is only from adding the moisture, and drying it out properly will eliminate that element. Be aware of mold, and do not forget about your bags for too long in order to avoid that issue.
