Is Today’s Marijuana Stronger?
It is easy to say ‘yes,’ but that might not be strictly true. Remember, weed was illegal and hard to get back in the 1960s and 70s. What arrived from overseas was mainly stems and stalks, with little of the bud that contains the THC. Today’s weed is easier to come by and is entirely bud because consumers won’t stand for anything less.
It could merely be a case of Americans not having access to the ‘good stuff.’ It is also illogical to suggest that weed has magically become stronger. It has grown for tens of thousands of years, and classic strains from the Hindu Kush Mountains are still highly sought after.

According to Page, he knows a hippie who traveled to Pakistan in the early 1970s to find strong weed. The seeds he bought back then are the source of the cannabis he still grows today. It is far more likely that the apparent change in THC levels is purely down to an increase in quality and availability.

Of course, breeders are eagerly trying to develop the most potent strains in the world. They have managed to create some knockout weed with sky-high THC levels. Yet even this process wouldn’t explain a sudden ‘increase’ in potency. They are simply mixing two or more existing strains. Perhaps Page’s point about manipulating strains by adding more THC is valid.

In 2017, High Times magazine wrote about Godfather OG, a strain with an incredible 34% THC. Just 20 years previously, weed had an average of 4% THC. Regardless of whether weed is more potent now, there is no question that the average American has more access to stronger marijuana than ever before.

Godfather OG are the seeds I won the other day in the seed contest. Hopefully they are as good as this article says

I also remember when young my tolerance was not yet established!
I had a older Brother who worked in the restaurant business so I had great weed hash ,thai stick. But also the newness of being high was a thing of beauty. To hear a album ,or eat food ,or fool around ,or laugh at the silliest things was the best. Back then a joint could make your night.

I love to bake bread. It’s my weakness. Pizza crust too. enjoy your new oven. I would love a new stove as mine is ugly but can’t see buying one as it still works perfectly.
 
weed ain’t anymore stronger now than it was in Egypt during pharaohs term

it is like saying weed was only so strong for several thousand years and then got stronger in the last 30-40 years?

give me a break

set and setting and circumstances dictate the experience in my humble opinion

i smoked my first joint in 1963
