History of Indica in the US

    I have been smoking since the late 70's and first remember Indica hitting Los Angeles around 1981.....At least that is when my supplier named "Russ" got it in stock. He just referred to it as "Skunk"....we called it Russbud. Used to cost between $15-20 an 1/8th.

    Anyone know the history of Indica in the US, or when they first saw it?

    Skunk #1 was actually a hybrid, not really a pure Indica or pure Sativa, though it is/was Indica dominant.

    I started to see Afghani and Hindu Kush strains around 1980. Had my first taste of well grown indoor Kush sometime after that.

    EDIT:

    As for the history, George Washington imported seeds from India, which would definitely have been Indicas.
