never smoked any of the new "hybrids", but the old swag that you got from any dealer was better than the swag you get today. christmas tree was awesome, red and white hairs, sticky and smelled just like a christmas tree. red bud was dense, sticky and would put you down for a few hours. lamb's bread was very white, super chatty high. girls would yak for hours after smoking some. we used to get mexican called "paraquat" that was awful. would make your mouth numb and would make you stupid for a few hours. we found out later that is was sprayed with a herbicide called..you guessed it...paraquat. horrible stuff, smelled like molasses! me and my brother used to grow afghan outdoors. hard to get it to a true "sinsemilla" if anyone else was growing within a five mile radius but man that was good! super smelly, you could smell a mature plant from thirty yards away. would make your heart race and your mind free. my brother grew a plant in a vacant lot across the street from our parents that he harvested when it was about eight feet tall. he got over a pound of buds off it and we silkscreened hash off the lower buds and trim. it was so big it was scary....the best thing was it was almost in plain sight of the street. no one would expect a plant to be growing there. damn, those were good times!
27, haven't hit the mile stone marker yet.

I think that there is a lot more primo on the market these days. There really weren't a lot of strains around in the late 60's early 70's. Truly high end weed was simply called sinsemilla. (not named after guns and smurfs and gum)Quote:

I know it's hard to believe, but there were no pc's back then much less the internet. And it was unlikely that your local library would be carrying Ed Rosenthal, much less the local bookstore. (althought there were "underground" bookstores and head shops) And thanks for making me age myself but as a friend of mine taught me,
I may not be as good as I once was, but I'm as good as I ever was once.
What sort of solids(hash) were about then?Quote:

maroccan and on the rare occasion some lebanese blond could be found.But hash was relatively scarce around here in the 70's
