maui waui, panama red, acapulco gold , columbian gold, but the best of em all was the thai stick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had some Thai Stick in the 70s and I mean it was wonderful. It was like a shot of siratonin, two hits and you were immediately just plain happy. I would give anything to know what strain that really was, from what part of Thailand or whatever it actually was- Excellent.
I have to say about World of Seeds, I was interested in their stuff once and eventually found a bunch of very bad reviews about their seed performance so even at the price I wouldn't order.
It's widely thought most of the South and Latin American genes were brought by slaves from Africa and there's probably something to that because most of those sativas resemble the African landraces.
I would just look for something proven that's supposed to be a real gold type strain and has good reviews. I've searched a lot and there's really no dependable Acapulco out there. There is a Mexican landrace x Blueberry around and I bet that's good but still probably not that close to the old Gold.
Reeferman has one called Love Potion #2 that's real Colombian Gold x G13 backcrossed to Colombian Gold. It's supposed to be excellent, a really great happy high.
High Grade Seeds has Kona Gold and I've seen grow reports and smoke reports. It's a very good one.
There's another site that sells what looks to be an authentic worked Colombian Gold and only around $45. I bought a pack but haven't grown it. It takes 12-14 weeks and you can PM me if you're really interested in that one, I'll link you to it.
Cannabiogen has Destroyer which is not Gold but is Meow(?) Thai dominant and if you get that pheno is supposed to be that extremely happy anti depression strain wtihout paranoia. I'm hoping to have that one some day.
I can't really think of anything else off hand that might be even close to an old school sativa high.
