old timers?

Hello is there any old timers like myself who still remember the first drop of Colombian gold in '71
also can anyone spell properly anymore? or speak a English?
I'm not snooty just old and in the way.

Welcome, I don't remember the bo from that early because I was like 10 . Catch me 5 years later and different story, gold bud, red bud, rainbow. All that shit was good.
This is the age of making up words/acronyms and shorthand of some sort.

This the age of idiocracy.

Welcome, your spelling and grammar are also terrible so I wouldn't personally knock everyone else for it LOL

welcome, and I don't see anything misspelled on your post

Thank you to all! and I promise I'm not a school teacher.
I'm just getting started with my first indoor grow (outdoor in my state is
a problem) my son has MS and I have degenerative disk disease.
As for Sunni well she must have some excuse.

I was just joking around

still making the golds and reds..old seeds made new again. every 3-4 years make them fresh.

old way is good, but be warned a lot of little pimply faced teens here and live there lives head down taping on a phone to talk, ....lol and pestering our mods(sunni) 'how to put up pics?' ....lol Welcome and yes I've heard of Colombian Gold you may still get seeds but not the original ...!

Hi there Old Man 60. I'd kill for some of that Gold Columbo from back in the day. I also remember Thai Sticks from the same era. How about when "pot" went from $10 a "lid" to $15 a "lid" and the $10 shit didn't get you high? California in the 60's (LA & SF) was certainly the place to be, although the variety of strains today is wonderful.

I won't knock "pimply faced kids" though, as that described me some 50 years ago, allthough I still don't get the text thing.

Peace out.

Man..........what's up dude ! I'm a child of the Sixtys........I was fortunate to meet someone older then myself who turned me on to the finest weed availble in our area in the 70's all the good south American, Mexican and the first true indica I ever smoked..... my friends made fun
of me for paying $10.00/ gram for what I called sponge......you're talking to a mofo who had a freaking bud collection of high grade bud in a stainless steel lock box in the 70's and actually kept seeds from my bud collection and planted them and gave them to friends

You guys give an old guy hope, but I remember Colombian @ $20.00 a oz.
and Mex. @ 2 for $25.00 but those are just fond memories now
but thank you all my brothers.
Remember:
We have to smoke yours 'cause we done smoked mine...

I have found some good landrace seeds @ World of Seeds seedbank
they look interesting if you want to have a trip down memory lane.

Sunni, I was joking to...

Welcome aboard oldman, good to have you here.
A word of warning though - the politics section is pretty scrappy, I personally avoid it if possible.

Thanks, Pop always said "Talking religion or politics is a sure way to a bloody nose"
I have learned to live by that.
But weed and whiskey is a whole 'nother ballgame!!!
And I love the quote by Churchill too many people forget the truly great men
of our time.

welcome aboard

Welcome @oldman60, mid fifties here, so yes, remember all those nasty seeds and crap in our weed. Although, for a few bucks and the right connections I can still smell and taste some of the best like thai stick, columbian gold, panama red, acapulco gold, hash and honey oil. Will be running some Acapulco Gold soon, got some seeds recently, not the same as the old shit, looks like a pain in the ass to grow, but damn it, I'm going to grow some just because I still can

I remember 1971 standing guard over a huge igloo cooler filled w/ AG.
I still think it looked better than anything Rumplestiltskin could turn out.

Thank goodness things worked out well - I really didn't want to shoot anybody.

Great quote BarnBuster good rule for us all!!!
I'm also glad things have progressed from the days of
smoking in a closet with a towel rolled up and jammed against
the bottom of the door with a incense burning. I think breathing
all that incense smoke did more harm than good!!!
But it is great to talk with kindred spirits, a lot of mine are
gone but never forgotten.
