What's up with sparkling cones

[jahmin]

I went to see someone who is usually a reliable source of quality bud the other day and he had something different. Told me it was 10 bucks less for an oscar and that he didn't have any of the usual. I took what he had and its nothing on the usual stuff.

It sparkles when you light it almost like ya sprinkled flint or gun powder into it.

I remember as a teen being told that buds that smoked like that were sprayed with something to ad weight. Haven't thought of it since but now that I do, that seems weird.

Is it possible that its cos the bud hasn't been flushed properly?

that is what I've read... but take it with an old wives tale approach...

Ive also heard buds with high levels of unflushed phosphorous can cause the sparkler effect.

How true this is i don't know

So there was a good reason your dealer was offering it at a discount... it's shitty weed.

Fortunately I'm still stoned as. It just tasted nasty and wasn't pleasant getting here.

And 10 bucks off on an ounce? fark you buddy.

Wish my grow would hurry along...

phosphorous .... too much of it.

Sparkly buds sound pretty. But if your dealer was selling them cheaper, then obviously for one reason or another it's not good bud. I too have heard of phosphorous caused a sparkle effect, but never seen it first hand.
