They keep saying that MJ is so much stronger now but personally, I don't see it myself. We used to buy a big heaping bag for 10 bux and you could barely even close the bag. It was all leaf and I never get stoned now (on buds) like I used to smoking shake back then. Maybe it is resistance or something. It was about the mid 70s when it seemed as if our smoke made a turn for the worse. We started hearing names like Columbian, Panama Red, etc. and it wasn't long after that we started to hear about sensimilla (spelling). Of course by this time prices had skyrocketed to like 30 bux an oz. I just dont get the same buzz today that I did back then. I hear it on the news and stuff that it is so much stronger now but I haven't seen any kind of study or research to back up those words. Perhaps the THC content is greater now but is the THC the same strength as it was back then?
Don't get me wrong, I am not saying today is bad, I just feel yesterday was better as far as the high. The taste today is definately better. There is definately a greater variety today. Today's buzz is good but 1 joint doesnt always make me feel like I have taken acid or something as it did then.
Might be interesting to see what other old timers have to say about it. If noone responds to this post, perhaps it might make a good thread.
