Best strain for a beginner weed smoker

hello,
i have smoked weed in the past, i even went to Amsterdam last summer, and there have only been 2 or 3 times where the weed i smoked made me feel good; every other time i experienced paranoia, racing heart, and the urging need to go to bed because i cant stand how im feeling. the times that i actually felt good, i felt very relaxed, i felt the munchies, and listening to someone like Sublime. can someone tell me whether this strain was indica, sativa, or kush?

can someone give me advice of what kind of strain i can smoke in order to experience the above explained times i felt good?

i havent smoked in over a year so please suggest a strain that is good for beginners, because i definitely do not want to have anymore horrible experiences, with only exeriencing 2 or 3 excellent experiences.

thanks,

sativas will give you a head high and indicas will give you a body high. If you felt relaxed and got the munchies you probably smoked an indica.
There are to many strains to really suggest one for you though. Maybe something like og kush

 

I prefer sativa, just because it feels better and I can actually function - it's a more energetic high. I don't like being couch-locked(indica strains). Doesn't really matter what kind of stuff you smoked, it's unlikely you'll know what you're getting unless you grow your own or go to 'dam again.

Munchies... well... pretty much any type of weed is gonna make you hungry

 

If he goes to a club he'll know exactly what he's getting. Idk if hes buyin it off the street or what though

 

Whatever kind your buddies have. When I was a beginner, that was as much choice as I got.

 

Sorry, keep forgetting those exist It seems like some sort of dream.. 'dam is just pushed to the front of my head cos I'm going over for New Year hopefully

In the UK(around where I've lived anyway), it's strong as shit but I'd guess around 60% of the stuff we get is shitty homegrown. The growers harvest the stuff too early, don't flush it properly(possibly at all )and rush the drying. Could be any strain, most of the guys call it whatever they want to try make it sell better.. to top it off we get shit prices - £20 for around 2g. 3 years ago we were getting 4 or 5g for the same price :'(

Damn this cold, rainy island!

 

I hear allot of crazy stories about the "skunk" over there. But you don't mean the actual genetic line skunk, it's just a general term for good weed.
Seems people have a much higher rates of psychological problems then in other countries. But that may just be government propaganda trying to discourage you from smoking. Maybe there is some pesticide commonly used you are smoking or something. Most of the weed available is probably being grown indoors in the country.

 

It's definitely grown indoors. I doubt there's much at all that ever sees the light of day

 

Any kind of weed is fine. It really doesn't matter, especially if you don't smoke regularly. There's really only one distinction you need to make that being between good weed and shwag. If its nice and crystally and smelly and delicious looking then it's good weed, and if its less crystally and compacted and it has seeds in it then its shwag. If you have shwag you could smoke a full bowl or a joint between a few people and you'll probably be floored, or if you have good you could take 1-3 hits and be floored. It sounds to me like the bad experiences you've had are from overdoing it with good weed. If you're not experienced with weed you should be really careful with really good weed. Take a couple hits and then wait 5 or 10 minutes and see if you want more. If you take your time with it like that I think you'll find it hard to have a bad time.

 

basically what i was gonna say. good advice!

just take one or two tokes...wait...and repeat if you desire
