Good morning OFC
I was thinking of the first good domestic weed I smoked in the late 70s and early 80s. Before most Norcal growers switched to Indicas and Hybrids. We had the "Big Sur Holy Weed" and the Haze. We called Indicas "Kush" as if they were the same thing. The Big Sur Holy weed was around long before someone bred some seeds and ripped off the name. Those seeds they sell now are not the same as what was grown back then. I think those were the first seedless varieties I tried. The "Big Sur Holy Weed was called that not because you have a religious experience smoking it as most believed. It was called that because for years it was secretly grown in a remote Buddhist monastery. Big Sur was the nearest civilization to the Monastery. My Sister's Boyfriend grew a lot of weed back then. Actually he still does. He always drove a Landrover to get to and from his grows then and now. We have sure have come a long way with the strains we grow now. I sure miss the flavor of some of those older strains now. Columbian Gold, Panama Red (Wow red hairs he he) and Thai Sticks were my favs until I started smoking sinsemilla. I used to buy and sell a lot of those Thai sticks back then. They came each long bud on a thin bamboo stick wrapped in silk thread. They came in test tubes stopped up with a cork that had melted wax around the cork. I wish we had something now that has that flavor.
Well back to my coffee and a bowl. I am a little more stoned than normal today. Forgive my rambling about the good ole days. ha ha
Have a great day
