using a double album on your bedroom floor, with half the album cover on the floor and the other half in your hand raised just above the floor to sift your seeds out before rolling your joints!,..
My trick was a flower sifter. Use the screen to shred the bud and USUALLY the majority of the seeds stayed in the sifter. Unless the weed was full of the little white seeds. Those usually got smashed into the shake.
 
and why is that?
why do we need things like tissue culture today? etc because breeding and breeders are ruining marijuana.. marijuana one of the oldest plants on earth has survived on its own just fine until humans starting to mess with it, now we need things like tissue culture etc for industrialized cannabis?? no thanks,..
all breeder weed is basically the same shit,..
BIG PHARMA wants to rule it all
 
Pre-sinsemilla, Acapulco Gold, Panama Red, Columbian, and Thai sticks were the go-to strains on the west coast. Theyโ€™re all still winners in my book. Acapulco Gold had a wonderful spicy taste, Columbian was earthy Panama Red was a heavy smoke, and Thai sticks were that wonderful sativa uplift and kinda sweet. Ahh, the 70โ€™s!!
In high school I had a buddy who got a Xmas package from his sister that was living in Hawaii. I was there when he opened the package. It was a case of Hawaiian Punch, but the package was pretty light for being a whole case of Hawaiian Punch.

My buddy decided to open a can to see what was going on and when he pulled the tab the whole top came off only to discover the can was full of Maui Wowie....from Hawaii!!!๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Don't remember much about what happened for a few months after that!!๐Ÿ˜† I do remember giving a joint to my Home Ec partners and them getting mad at me the next day because after Home Ec they went out into the parking lot to smoke it and got so stoned they missed the rest of their classes and got in trouble. They kept asking me if the weed was laced with something!!๐Ÿคฃ

I forgot all about Maui Wowie!!! it wasnโ€™t common, more demand than supply, but it sure was good!!!

i agree we had it high school as well only a couple times and yep got totally baked think we got lost in the woods,.. hahaha
 
obviously a subject that creates strong opinions..
but one thing for sure is since 1990 ish weed has gone downhill in every aspect other than the way it โ€œlooksโ€,..
all these diseases and viruses viriods are not an issue with landrace heirloom etc strains in marijuana growing countries itโ€™s just with all this breeder weed,..
the biggest rip off in the industry is buying seeds and clones from breeders..

I think you are onto something here Nick. In the last couple years I have been going out of my way to find โ€œolder genetics (mostly late 90s or early 2000s), some of the seeds Iโ€™ve gotten are white rhino, northern lights, black Dom, blue Dream, Jack herer, and afghani. When I compare these with point of purchase impulse buys for Runtz, Topical cookies, zittles etc the modern plants are coming up a little short. (The only random modern seed I am happy with is Mz Jillz Jillybean.)

I would additionally posit that autos are a real and specific danger ability to grow and progenitor the plant. Itโ€™s a capitalists dream, weโ€™re selling you a one time seed for 12 dollars that you can clone or breed or reproduce at all. Basically the Monsanto model. Iโ€™m worried as I have been seeing regularly seeds disappear from seed banks online. The companies are typifying to cut us as the growers out of the means of production. (I know still working on the silver method to flip a fem seed for pollen).

Just food for though, donโ€™t want to rant too much.

I'm new here and hoping to generate some leads on that beautiful roadkill skunk smell phenotype of old, where everyone knew you had the killer green skunk bud on your person, no matter how hard you tried to hide it. When the growing plant wreaks like Pepe Lepew, the flowers wreak form blocks away, and the cured buds in your pocket make you smell like a skunk from 10 feet away. I've tried everything commercially available to no avail. Anyone out there for the real stuff?
I'm from the 80's here and remember nothing but allot of really shitty weed from Mexico. Once in a blue moon we might get some Columbian Gold or Panama; later on, we started getting Sensi that was good, green, sticky, and pretty skunky. I don't know what strains are like that now. Up here, Mass, we have a dispensary playing around with old strains, and they came up with the Nostalgia line. I tried the Maui Wowie and Acapulco Gold. While I never tried the former growing up, I did have the later a number of times. It is actually reminiscent of what I remember. Compared to today, I'm not sure anything sold in dispensaries is much less than about 10% THC, which back in the day would have been considered a head banger!
 
Your remembering it being better than it was. Remember during that time the best of the best was hitting like 14%. Now they have gotten to 38%. Those old phenos disappeared for a reason.
No sir. It was amazing. Finding bud that good these days is incredibly hard. The old widow, skunk, silver pearl.... the best I ever had was either LA Confidential or OG kush from about 06'- 07' though. Since then bud just hasn't been that dank unless you get extremely lucky. We had mids that were just as good as most bud on the streets now. 90s bud was better than 80s bud. But mid 2000s was the best

You couldn't be more wrong but that's okay, people who weren't there can't possibly know what we've lost.

In the seventies we were smoking Ma Bouchers red & gold from Montreal, finest cannabis ever, anyone who's ever smoked it will tell you the same thing.

Never tried those as they weren't available here but we did have Skunk, Hawaiian and Thai stick in the 70's that'd knock your socks off. That frickin Hawaiian was $10 a gram and it was WORTH IT! Oh yeah, black Afghany Primo hash was also $10 a gm and it to was worth every penny๐Ÿฅฐ

lol the old album cover was the ticket.

Plain white paper on a bookโ€ฆ break it up real smallโ€ฆ scrape over the weed with my drivers license. The seeds fall out to the bottom on the book. Fold up the paper and tap tap into the bowl. I had a friend who had a gallon bag half full of seed collected this way in 1990 and sheโ€™d just keep adding to it. Everyoneโ€™s goal was to see how big a seed collection they could get. So many friends with cigar tubes and film canisters full. I didnโ€™t mind the seeds. It was a ritual.

Itโ€™s really true. I think all the focus on THC/CBD has really hurt us. There are hundreds of cannabinoids in the plant and I bet those plants in the 80โ€™s/90โ€™s had a much wider profile and much more variety in how they hit. Yeah, some of it was shitty brick weed from Mexico and some not much better than ditch weed but the good stuff would send waves through your body and make you float. I havenโ€™t had waves through my body floating since 2000. But I also never had shit that smelled like popcorn and candy canes or whatever shit people are breeding in now before 2000. Itโ€™s so much more plentiful now too thoughโ€ฆ I remember times in MN and VT where one big bust could dry up supply in a city for a month. I havenโ€™t seen a dry supply in decades.

Imagine two dumbass high school kids with a whole case of "Hawaiian Punch" in their possession? ๐Ÿคฃ

The first thing we did was open up a few more cans, get some sandwich baggies and fill them with our new found glory!! My buddy kept one of the bags and gave me the other. Even after we filled our baggies there were around 21 cans left. We still had a half can after we filled our baggies so we decided to roll up a bunch of joints with the remaining smoke. My buddy had a little coke and I had some hash oils so we decided that one of the joints would get some "amendments" added to it. We buttered the rolling paper with the hash oil, dropped in the weed and salted it with the coke! COCO PUFFS FTW!!!!

The funniest part(or saddest depending on how you look at it) was that my buddy never sold any of it. He would hand out joints like he just had a baby! He brought new meaning to "High" school!!๐Ÿคฃ

Now you did it!!

Had a buddy(I got a lot of 'em) that went to Cal State Berkeley for his Chemistry major. Called me one day telling me he was coming down to L.A. and if he could crash at my pad while he was here. When he got to my place and unpacked he pulled out 2 gallon zip locks. One was filled with a bunch of empty capsules and the other had, what looked liked, brown sugar.

I asked him what it was and he just smiled and said "MMDA!!!". Oh Shit!!! He told me he made it in the lab and if I helped him fill the capsules he'd give me some. We filled all the capsules with what he had and he filled a sandwich baggie with some and gave it to me.

We decided to go out that evening and check out some of the live music happening in town. It was myself, my GF and Clay. Clay was already tripping by the time we got to the club so after he got a cold one in his hand he disappeared. I gave my GF a capsule and she took half. I took a whole one. The band that was playing that night was my buddy Erics. I went backstage, found Eric and gave him a handful. About a half hour later his band goes on and they play through a few songs then take a quick break to retune. My buddy Eric is the singer so he gets on the mic and starts thanking everyone.

"Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for coming out but I especially want to thank my buddy Jonny for giving me this amazing ectasy! I'm so fucking high right now!"

I was playing music at that time so I was used to people staring at me but when the entire club is looking at you because you have a giant bag of MMDA......that was not the best feeling in the world! ๐Ÿ˜†

I grab my GF and Clay and tell them both we need to leave...NOW! The shit was coming on hard for me so the GF had to drive.

Still have no idea how we made it home........
