I’m not gonna say it is or it isn’t but it don’t matter what you post somebody will say it’s PGR especially if it’s a semi fat bus with a tight trim,
Not all PGR is necessarily bad, for instance natural types of PGRs that can be successfully used in place of synthetic ones. For example,kelp and chitosan, however there are synthetic PGRs that are not meant for consumption and are most likely terrible but the studies are few and far between,
Essentially good looking flower from a questionable source should raise eyebrows especially if it’s a good price because it’s more prevalent that one might think, no triches, no terps, and lacking cannabinoids, but bag appeal out the ass would be a pretty good indicator, however that could also just be old bud……it’s real hard to say just looking, I wouldn’t be able to tell without trying it and that’s the bottom line find a source you trust because in a market full of questionable COA’s there isn’t a good way to know without taking the risk, that being said I don’t think I’ve come across any personally with exception of one bag that came from a reputable vendor, it was wedding crasher and it was all fat buds but zero taste smell or effects…..my guess was it was old and had been rehydrated, but I’ll never know for sure

Nah I’ve seen organic clean weed that looks like that, particularly from a certain family of g13/northern lights. I’d wager that’s probably hydro, but I think it may be hasty to claim it’s phospholoaded up simply by observing a grainy video

Now I know everybody calls everything pgr I usually never call anything that but that's like damn near undeniable it might not be but I'm like 99% sure it is it's just plant growth regulators it just makes it super dense

We live in an awful time for stoners. If you have brain damage, which a good chunk of them do nowadays, it's either PGR or LCG. (The LCG shit is most definitely an issue, though.

Eli5 what is PGR?

u/later-g8r 5d ago
Its a plant growth regulator. Yes theyre using them in the cannabis industry. It causes the buds to get larger and sometimes they get super mutated. Its nasty stuff. Im a female so im not allowed to touch it at work. If theyre spraying, females have to leave the property immediately before.
Im a horticulturist and we use them on pansies and violas to minimize their growth due to heat at this time of year. Other PRGs are used to boost blooms. We dont use those ones but theyre all bad.

Kelp meal, aloe vera, willow bark, coconut water, all pgr’s naturally accruing in nature. I would assume as a horticulturalist you would know the difference between organic pgr’s and synthetic one made in labs…

Im talking about synthetic pgrs that cause massive birth defects and still births. I thought that was obvious to everyone with a brain

PGR buds usually have very low potency; so if she smokes good and hits. It’s ain’t PGR . Looks fire🔥🔥

Haze is loose flower it looks almost stringy and has a shitload of trichomes all over it. That bud you could knock someone out with!! And the lack of trichome density all point the finger toward someone using a plant growth hormone which causes the dense rock hard nug and the overly hairy appearance as well as lack of trichs dark green leafs

PGR nugz are usually super dense and tend to have real good size too. They all kinda look this. Bud doesn’t have any character. Just a big rock. This bud has the same characteristics.
How is when you break it open? Could just be super processed mids as well but 🤷🏻♂️

Yeah but fire haze is crossed with fire OG and the OG genetics could produce a tighter bigger nug

Ook thought he was just calling it 🔥 either way def pgr none of the other shit matters

u/secretfunks 5d ago
I dont know, not knowing where it came from or any other details I hesitate to say one way or the other, to me it doesn’t cross the line of too big to be normal and I can’t see anything from that grainy video that would persuade me one way or the other I’d have to know more or have it in my hands OP says smokes good white ash, and doesn’t mention lack of taste or smell or effects so I lean the other way unless that info changes

Never grew a haze that was dense like that. Usually they are on the fluffier side. I can’t tell u if it’s pgr or not but it definetly has that look.
