Black African Gunji. A pot product that is cured buried in the ground. Black, very pungent and earthy.

Anyone remember or know of this stuff still? I remember many, many others as well.

Yes! It was around in New York City in the early 1970's - for a hundred an ounce, which was about the most expensive pot there was in those days.

I have mentioned it several times in postings here. I always thought that it was, as it's name suggests "African", but I have seen references (elswhere on the internet) to it as actually being from India.

Wherever it was from, it was great stuff. Even though it's been almost 35 years since I last had any, I'd guess that it was pure Indica.
