Gottcha!! :thumbsup:

Hey Gypski,

I'm an old timer and I don't remember much weed for $15-35 an oz. that comes close to today's herb. Maybe with the exception of some Thai Stick that was purchased in Bangkok.. for $0.05 apiece!! We got 2000 of them for a $100. With the exception of a Missouri outdoor sativa a buddy grew.. I've never seen anything even close!

And as far as prices... I think things up here in Washington are pretty reasonable compared to other parts of the good ole USA.. Want to save some $$.. Start gardening!! :jointsmile:

Peace, Farmer Rich

Well, we all need to remember that today's weed comes from the same stuff we smoked back then. Just some mixin' and matchin'. And true. I remember when the Mex dirt weed came 'round every year, even tasted like dirt. But, when it was dry, that shit even sold for a minimum of $20 after around '70. :smokin:

Are you guys taking inflation into account? $10 in 1970 is not the same as $10 in 2009..

Same thing I was thinkin.

I also run into 60 dollar mids a lot up here in the midwest. Lately I have been getting some really good stuff for 60 though. I really wish I could just grow a huge crop in my back yard so I would never have to buy it again.


Gypski, I hope you are right. I kind of feel the same way though. Too many people are fed up and they have been for too long.

I recall the late '70's I paid $25. for Oz. of some new thing called 'red eye'--I asked, since when did street stuff have names. About the time Columbian was more popular on the market --any Columbian! P/R

Well there really was Panama Red, Alcapulco Gold, and some Caribbean smoke back in the old days. Alcapulco and Panama Red showed up even on the east coast. :jointsmile:

Jaysin: Once the anybody can grow begins the price will drop like a rock. Far too many want a shot at growing something to shine about with friends!!!! And we ain't talking tomatoes. :jointsmile:

i never realised how much you lot in the US are paying, your prices are sky high, in the UK we pay half of what you pay for quality weed.

I don't buy from the street but a couple of friends have a connection for $80 half ounces ($160/oz). Good, strains too. :hippy:
