Does anyone know of a drug that comes wrapped like this?

I'm sorry I can't put a photo up at the moment. The wrapping is a rectangle approx 4x5cm of what seems to be a heavy garden waste bag ie woven and green. It was found with a small length of foil type/sticky stuff that probably sealed it, in the pocket of my son's jeans. Along with a lighter, I know he doesn't smoke cigarettes. Any ideas?

Foil? Did the foil have any burn marks on it? The green waste bag doesn't sound like something to contain drugs though, they are usually wrapped in much less bulky material for ease of concealment.

hm well the teen weed dealers that I know, wrap it in a bit of plastic bag, so it could well have contained weed.

Does it smell of anything?

Weed. Unless the foil was actual foil and looked burned.

Drugs tend to come in small clear , zip lock bags. Apart from heroin which seems to come tightly wrapped in cling film . I'm not 100% sure though . Can you smell it , cannabis stinks.

" Drugs tend to come in small clear , zip lock bags "

not necessarily. As I said, teens use ripped up plastic bags, my own dealer uses sandwich bags. Nobody wants to get busted and have police find a store of ziplock baggies.

You are right about the heroin, in fact it is those thin shopping bags.

Did you look inside and can you describe the contents? Could it be 'Spice' (Psychoactive substance). They often come in little square packets that can be shiny (foil?).

oh god not spice - that disgusting smell and invariably derelict people smoking it...
Once I was sitting in a park near Kings X and this one sat down by me and smoked some spice. Then he fell on his head and started fitting...

(yes I did call an ambulance before anyone starts, a paramedic on a bicycle came and said he had been smoking spice and doing that all morning)

What do the contents look like?

Does this help?

drug descriptions

Petal she said the bag was empty.

Weed, strong wrapping to hide the smell

Almost certainly weed. Anything woven would trap & waste powder eg. speed, coke, heroin.

This would also fit with the lighter.

Hash?

Foil packs usually disguise the smell. I'd lay low and search his room in the next week. Any cardboard with little square rips in it, long rizzler/papers and lots of empty snack foods means weed.
