Most memorable were
Santa Marta Sensi in 72-73. Oaxacan in 72. Vietnam Black in 71. Buddies vbrother brouth back several lbs of it.
Had a good deal of Thai/LOOSE, not sticks in the 70s which was killer. But was expensive. In 74 it was $200ozusd
In my neck of the woods in E Ky in 74 we had a huge imported weed drought over the summer. 3 months. All kinds of LSD, PCP, Tuinal, Black Beauties, Desoxyn, but no weed.
Then in the fall, Columbian started coming in. Mainly it was all high quality Mexican, though it was quite seeded. Was still stupid potent.
The Columbian Gold was the first to start popping up, and then Red, and weed went from $40 a 1/4 to $80. The weed was quite good, but no better then the best of the best Mexicans. Taste was different. Alot had a peppery taste, and some very sweet, and floral.
We didnt get alot of Columbian in E Ky in the early early 70s, but starting in the Fall of 74, anyhting any good was labeled as Columbian, and the shit was Mexican.
I attribute this to the paraquating of the fields in Mexico, and they had to shift to Columbia, and what Mex did get in was mostly contaminated.
I remember my buddies had some shit that smelled of Diesel. As in real deal oily fuel, not the one we all know and love.
I wouldnt smoke it. Paraquat I believe is oil based.
Another time in late 74, same buddy had some shit that smelled like cat food, and thats what they named it. 5 of use were riding down the road, and they were smoking it, agian, no way I smoke anything that doesnt smell like weed, and it burst into flames when they were smoking it.
My one buddies little brother had a stroke in 74, and it was attributed to Paraquat. He was 15 years old. He lived, and is still alive. Drinks. Unfortunately.
All through 75-79, it was mostly Columbian, Thai.
Also Im not counting local grown. Ky has long been a state of alot of weed growing.
We also used to get alot of stuff from Meigs County in the early-mid 70s, and was known as the California of the East. Thats where I first discovered real deal skunk. They also never called it Skunk, nothing more, and to bust some bubbles, all of it was not acrid aka RKS, most of all the very best I ever saw was floral,, skunk spray, with a bit of cat pee. Its all in the sulfiur family. But the earliest skunk in the 70s in Meigs I ever saw reek from 50 feet away, or more, and had a skunk overtones, with flowers, and cat piss in the backround. They were also Sativa Structured plants. BIG plants.
Also by 78 I had started growing with HID.
Early 80s saw columbian going away, and alot of Jamican, with Red Stripe Beer caps pressed into the bricks.
Also around early 80s, seeds started to become available, and the 1st ones we bought were Nevils Mazar. Then we started buying all we could.
By 1979 the Meigs guys got hit hard by the cops, as Meigs is a really small county, though they did survive, alot of the genetics got lost. My buddy lost the skunk to the cops long ago.
My buddy was told the skunk they had from Meigs, had Kerela in it. Buddy still says so to this day. Dont know any of the other genetics.
We bought all kinds of stuff from Nevil/Seed Bank, SSSC, Prarie Fire, Serious Seeds in 90s, Dutch passion, Flying Dutchmen, and several others.
Best stuff I saw in the 90s was NL5/Haze x Hashplant/Sk1. I was given 15 seeds, and F2 all of them, and was overall the best shit EVER. Even my older buddy that had the Meigs connection, says its the best hes ever seen.
All the genes got lost to the FBI in 1997. Except a buddy has some old mothers of a few plants. 90s AK47, 1999 Sensi NL5, 90s Sensi Afghan #1/Smells like grapes.
