weed today is more potent than weed was when i was a kid, but it takes more to get me off as i've aged.
the weed from yesterday that seems like it was as powerful as anything today...wasn't. it just seems that way in our memories. it may have been a damn sight better than anything available at the time, but if you had that bag today, you'd be disappointed.
I dont know if that is fair to say...
I mean we were young back then and of course we had to "score" off big brothers mostly, who usually ripped off their little brothers. Lol
Also, there was great weed around back then but it was rare.. and so even more rare to us younger guys, who were at the end of the line, behind our big brothers in the weed chain.
I dunno... i smoked plenty of weed in the 70/80s that was just as good as any top shelf stuff around now. But that was only a available a few times a year, if you knew the right people....
Then came "BC hydro" in the late 80s... that shit was always seedless and potent as anything i have ever smoked to this day (and ive smoked all over the world). That BC hydro was everywhere in alberta... still is...
So... imo weed was just as good as back then...its just that now its way more common and accessible to everybody. Its not exclusive anymore.
