Looking for Old School potency

Sadly in many cases people are still stuck in the “higher thc means better weed” mentality. It’s mainly the uneducated who want bragging rights so they can tell people how powerful their weed is. They make me laugh at least. Those people have no idea what good weed is or more importantly why it’s good.

I agree its hard finding the same high in weed we were getting even 10 yrs ago. I enjoy the stinky sticky lay you out weed, thc level means nothing compared to a good clean lmao high.

That was my secret to good flower at the dispensary. The good flower tended to be 15-20% high was usually lacking in anything other than THC.

I like Mandala’s offerings because they provide me with flavors and highs reminiscent of the 1970s. Hardy and vigorous plants which produce some old school flowers which never fail to satisfy me.

My favorite breeder overall. Delightful buds.

Where do you access Mandala? Hadn’t heard of them before.

There’s a lot of seed companies with recognizable names from High Times and back in the day, but they’re mostly knockoffs that are selling stuff that isn’t actually what they claim it is. Don’t fall for those. They’re not worth your time or money.

@bodhi seeds (not green bodhi, which is a knockoff) has verified old school cuts of most of those you listed, plus all the chems and the OGs and the original bubba, that he’s used in tons of crosses over the years. Here at Overgrow, we’ve preserved many of them that are out of print and discontinued, but he also sells a ton of them at www.greatlakesgenetics.com They’re cheap and fantastic, so buy a few and pop full packs at a time and make sure to clone them all before you flip so you can backup the multiple keepers you’ll find. :slight_smile:

You gotta grow em right or they devolve. Takes several generations in healthy soil. Takes UV-b daily. Most breeders aren’t there yet. They want something ornamental that shines in a shitty grow, apparently.

Where do you suggest?

Which breeders are “there” now?

None of this is true lol. Levels of broscience that shouldn’t be possible.

To everyone else, y’all are overthinking things way too much. You just smoke more, stronger weed now. Weed is stronger now, overall. Raw THC numbers are not the end all be all of what makes a good plant, but make no mistake, THC is what gets you high. We have access to all those old school clones and crosses and no they don’t magically get you higher. They’re interesting, but they don’t have some special magic to them.

Frankly, I do not believe in the entourage effect. No credible evidence it exists. If it does exist, I think the effects are very minimal. I sure don’t get higher smoking weed with significant levels of CBD.

And no ones mentioned sour bubble bx2 or bx3. Old school, better potency than most things on market today

yeah we would smoke hash when it was around and it was good too, the weed was good, a few strains i remember, skunk, almost white, real sticky and stinky, then there was this pine smelling stuff that was pure fire and super strong, then there was the mexican that was alwaays around, sometimes brick weed or dirt week and that stuff was always there. had i wished i saved some of those seed from those years, 30-35 years ago.
maybe try smoking some land races and see what happens
