I wonder how the AG stuff of the last decade would compare to the AG stuff from 40 years ago?

Not trying to play the age card here FTR.

It was as yellow/gray as a tumbleweed and kicked you in the head harder than a Budweiser Clydesdale. It was more like tripping than just being royally stoned.

The only time I've ever gotten so high from weed that it felt like I'd fallen off of the planet was from some mid 70s AG.

My guess would be that it crushes it since growing technology gets more funding than cancer research. My dad, who was smoking as recently as the 90s, can't smoke today's pot because it wrecks him too much. I actually have to look harder for weak **** to sell to him than for the bomb **** I want for myself :laughing:.

Today’s weed is much stronger than what we smoked in the 90s. And that was beautiful sticky bud, too. But if you smoke today’s **** expecting the easier going old school high you’re in for a rude awakening. I think the high is mellower if the weed has red hairs more than all those white THC crystals. I actually think the obsession with THC content in today’s strains make the buzz too racey.

I go with indica and start slow. Otherwise I’ll get paranoid.

the names for weed strains are ****ing hilarious.

i remember being at a friend's house one time when someone came over to buy some "vertex 10" or some **** like that and i had to sit there and try not to laugh while these dudes kept throwing the most outlandish strain names out there.

I dig that high THC content as a sativa man. Gets me in a good creative space.

From the early 80's until now, it's been an interesting progression for weed names:

80's - Sensimilia (Sens)
90's - Hydroponics (Hydro)
00's - Kush/Kind (wtf??... Dude, you got any kind? lol)
10's - Just pick 2 names from a hat

Not if you're a legal grower. There's pretty strict naming conventions that you can lose your license for not sticking to in Washington.

Anyway you forgot to mention OGs, Cookies, and Cakes.

It's just what it seems, from a non-growers perspective.

Ah. I was wondering about that. I had some regs on me one day, and a some dude asked if I wanted to match. He said he had some OG Kush, and I'm like "Well, all I got is this No G Regs". He fell out a little.

OccultHawk 11-29-2017 01:25 PM

I’m not gonna deny that there’s a lot of false reppin strains but with a good dealer and a good strain you know exactly what you’re getting. How it smells, how it looks, how the high goes.

Plain old Bubba Kush for me

Some people use that for herb but they's wrong.

White House May Share Nuclear Power Technology With Saudi Arabia

Pretty sure Saudi Arabia is going to be the spark.

I've never heard of this. Is it a name for a strain? Or the equivalence of kush from the 80's?

OccultHawk 11-30-2017 08:33 PM

Holy ****

You never heard it called sensimilla?

Have you ever heard of Dirt Weed?

OccultHawk 11-30-2017 08:37 PM

No it’s not a strain just the female plant, no seeds.

We got green buds but it wasn’t the same as today’s kush. If it was really strong we called it “kind”

Yeah we said “kind” in the 80’s

For me “hydro” and “endo” in the early 90’s

Now I think soil grown is better but for a time “hydro” was the craziest

In my neck of the woods dirt weed was brown weed we used to buy for $5 dollars a bag on “nick street” in the Bluff in Atlanta (we just said “around Georgia Tech”). A nickle bag could roll up about 5 joints. It took like half a joint to get a buzz. Before crack it was pretty much just weed down there. It was dangerous before crack. They called angel dust “pot additive”. But after crack hit there was no more going down there. The cops wouldn’t even arrest you. They would pull you over and say if you want to live get the **** out of here.

Nickle bag = just fell down flat on my ass from an early 70s flashback.....

Nickle bags were the norm. Splurging for an ounce was a big ****ing deal.

The other day Sarah Huckabee Sanders wanted to rewrite one of the Ten Commandments. "Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour" has been considered a pretty good principle to follow for over 2000 years. Uncomfortably good for SHS who said this when defending Trump's re-tweet of discreditted anti-muslim video clips:-

"Whether the video is real or not, the threat is real; that's what the President is talking about....and those are real no matter how you look at it..."

Effectively she's saying, "Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour, but if you feel threatened by your neighbour, then it's ok,"

Chula Vista 11-30-2017 10:35 PM

She must be being paid a Mack truck full of money to stay in her "job".

Is anybody surprised at this point that the Trump admin thinks that lying is acceptable?
