Breuk is right. Take it from another original 70s-era stoner. It's much stronger now, and I think that's true of even what was considered the best back in those days. In Texas we could easily get Acapulco gold, and it was a good high but nothing like the stuff I tried last year and nothing like what I've seen and read about here. Growers have had 30 years to develop better growing techniques from better seeds. Design better hybrids. Nurture stronger plants through generations of breeding for more "desirable" qualities and higher amounts of trichomes and hence THC. It all combines to make for better weed.

Don't get me wrong. We still had fun in the 70s. And often that was because people were combining weed with various other substances, none of which I can talk about here. Except possibly to mention beer, which was what weed was mostly combined with during my college years.
