How about in the 70’s when the feds sprayed Mexico with Paraquat to kill the shit. They picked it anyway and shipped it out. This marked the advent of the early cannabis testing facilities
I never had my weed tested. Figured it was the cops
That stuff tasted nasty. It was still sold on the streets.
Fucking " Dime Bags " bought and sold in the bathroom or behind school ... Lol
Maui wowie
Mexican red
Thai stick
Colombian gold
" house shake " is better than that brick shit.
I remember all of those.
The Thai was good indeed.
I found this online awhile back while mindlessly surfing the net. It's part of an actual news article circulated by the Associated Press. It's hilarious and reminiscent of Reefer Madness. I don't know anyone that ever stayed up for days after smoking thai stick.
Statesman Salem, Ore., Sun., Apr. 28, 74,
WASHINGTON (AP) -Federal drug officials are investigating attempts by international drug smugglers to introduce a highly potent form of marijuana into the United States. The marijuana is called Thai Sticks because it comes from Thailand and is shaped like a long cigar. Drug Enforcement Administration officials said. Thai Sticks are not a hybrid marijuana, but are made from the potent top leaves and stems of the marijuana plant. DEA officials said they are high potency. When asked what the effect would be, a DEA official said a "high" or halluceno-genic effect, regular marijuana can last several hours, but with Thai Sticks a person could go "on one hell of a trip ... could stay up a couple of days." three times stronger than regular marijuana. They said Thai Sticks contain at least 7 percent tetrahydrocanabinia (THC), compared to 1 to 3 per cent for average marijuana. THC produces the hallucinogenic effect
