I have been smoking for +25 years, mostly hash, on a bong
Back in the late 80ish and early 90ish both the hash and the pot we could get was mid grade compared to what you can get to day, at some point in the middle of the 90ish we began to get stronger hash and skunk, remember first time I smoked skunk, my first thought was "hey this get me just as stoned as hash" as the pot we used to smoke at best got you a bit high
Did even take me some time to get used to the "new" more stronger hash, did continue to buy the "mid grade" stuff for quite a wile as I thought the "super" hash was too strong, my fault was that I still used a gram for two smokes in my bong mix, when I found out I only needed 1/2 a gram for two smokes I enjoyed the strong hash and been ever since
Back in the early 90ish I had a few outdoor grows with a friend of mine, normal local Pot seed`s, grew some nice +500 gram X-mass tree`s
(Sativa`s)
but I don't believe the THC contense was much higher then a few % we made oil on most of it and got freaking high
At the same point as the stronger hash and skunk arrived (mid 90ish) we also got new better genetic inform of new strain/seed`s from all over the world, actually got a 5 pac of Hawaiian skunk Femi seed`s I tried to grow in my window shelf with little success as we back then did`t have the internet and all the knowledge's, did`t have a clue on what kind of light it really needed, all I ever read on the topic was the "Hamp growers hand book" and that was more about outdoor growing
Now, a few years back I got feed up of buying Hash from a market that more or less had been taking over by hard criminals and what follows of buying from a market like that, expensive smoke and the risk of getting busted and supporting hard criminals, so I began to grow my own (thanks God for the internet) and I don't even miss the strong Hash, as the strains of too day`s skunk are lightyears away from the pot we grew back in the 90ish and with the knowledge's on the internet (mostly RIU
) its easy to grow/keep yourself with good smoke
