The best marijuana of 1977 looks unfit for human consumption The best marijuana of 1977 looks unfit for human consumption VicesNovember 02, 2018 No matter how much it changed your life in the past, the weed you bought in the 1980s, ’90s and 2000s was probably trash. Remember? You’d sneak to your shady friend’s house and he’d rummage through an old duffel bag hidden behind the furnace only to pull out a folded up newspaper with shake spilling everywhere. And whatever he was selling always looked like hedge clippings, like lettuce you dropped on the kitchen floor two weeks ago that shriveled up and got stepped on. But did you know it used to be even worse? That’s what you learn when you buy a subscription to the archives of High Times — highly recommended; the old articles are edgy and amazing. But though the editors were nuts over it then, compared to today, even the best weed from the past looked unfit for composting. Here’s photographic evidence. Take 1977. Here are the Top 40 buds of that year: Remember: this is the best marijuana back then. Try not to throw up. And here’s a cover from 1977, from the Christmas edition. Like, “Happy Holidays, here’s some bunk-ass ganj!”  The next year’s top buds weren’t much better:  This full page spread was titled American Beauty:  You couldn’t get a Denver bum to smuggle this into jail.  Here are the choicest buds from November 1978:  In 1983, here’s the best the rest of the world had to offer:  And here’s the 1983 pot of the year:  This is not High Times’ fault, or bad editorial judgment. It’s just that cannabis back then was a regular plant, not the work of art it is today.  As you read further through the archives, the evolution of cannabis happens before your eyes.  Cannabis started to improve by the mid-80s. Here’s an ad for the High Times calendar. You can see the difference.  Despite the massive crackdown on cannabis, dedicated growers managed to thrive. (Or maybe because of the massive crackdown.) By the late ’80s and early ’90s, the grass improved. It had gotten hairier, stickier and prettier.  The best buds in 1995 were closer to today’s weed:  And by the middle of last decade, a typical bud was decent. Here’s an unremarkable bud from 2005:  And, now, everything is different.  Bug your eyes out at today’s fire, 2016’s winner of the Rooster THC Classic:  History moves forward. Let’s never look back.  [originally published December 12, 2017]

25 Greatest Strains of All Time | High Times

25 Greatest Strains of All Time What better way to celebrate High Times’ 40th anniversary than to pay homage to the best of the cannabis plant, which provided our founder, Thomas King Forçade, and so many others with the inspiration to cultivate a movement and put forth a publication dedicated to one goal for so many years. You’re probably wondering just how, exactly, we came up with The List? We do admit it’s not a bad gig to have, deciding which strains are the best of all time — but still, the task did come with its challenges. Sorting through the varied histories of these strains wasn’t exactly easy as the lineage, parentage and even the birthplace of some of these strains are murky at best. So we had to rely on a few main factors, the first being each strain’s influence and overall contribution to the cannabis gene pool — hence many of the old-school varietals on the list. Next, we had to consider the awards (specifically, Cannabis Cups) that each strain has won. And after that came popularity and market share, qualitative factors that helped shape The List greatly. Lastly, we made use of our movement’s greatest asset: Science. We looked at a host of quantitative characteristics, such as potency (both THC and CBD; see #8 for proof) as well as terpenoid profiles, which produce the flavorful aromas and tastes that we all love so much. Hopefully, we did right by all of High Times’ readers. But we’re also pretty confident that if you were starting out on a new planet and had to take a handful of cannabis seeds along, you’d be choosing from among these 25! So here’s to our Lady of Cause, and all of her beautiful children. Enjoy. 25. Acapulco Gold, a.k.a. Mexican Sativa Kicking off our list of the all-time greatest strains is a true native landrace of North America. Often referred to as Acapulco Gold, but more commonly known these days as Mexican sativa, it is often used in breeding projects which have led to numerous world-class strains such as Skunk #1, multiple Haze varieties and even the fabled Blueberry line (check out #11, #10 and #2). And, when grown right, Mexican sinsemilla (meaning “without seed”) can provide one of the best stand-alone sativa highs around. 24. Girl Scout Cookies Highest lab-tested THC at a HT Cannabis Cup: 25.14 percent (Denver, 2013) The GSC might be the youngest strain to earn a place on The List. She first appeared just a few years ago, circa 2011, and took the cannabis world by storm. Much controversy still surrounds this strain, however, and not just because of her name. A debate persists as to her lineage: The most commonly held belief is that she’s the product of OG Kush x Cherry Pie, while others contend that it was something called “F1” (not in reference to breeding) x Durban Poison, which was then crossed to Kush. Either way, the GSC has edged out some tough competition to make her appearance here. 23. Amnesia Haze A classic strain from the Netherlands, the Amnesia Haze was winning Cups more than a decade ago and might be considered a fixture of the Amsterdam pot scene. A sativa-dominant hybrid, her ancestry looks something like this: (Afghani x Hawaiian) x Laos x Jamaican. This combination gives the Amnesia Haze a sweet and spicy flavor with a very cerebral high. 22. Critical Mass, a.k.a. Critical+ This one sparked a bit of internal debate here at High Times as to whether she merited inclusion on The List. However, in the end she won out over some of our honorable mentions (appearing at the end of this article) — mostly due to her overwhelming popularity in Spain, which is fast becoming the new Amsterdam…

The Best Weed From 1977 is Unrecognizable Compared …

The Best Weed From 1977 is Unrecognizable Compared to Today’s StandardsIf you show this picture to the average weed enthusiast today they will be absolutely blown away. What is this stuff? These were High Times best strains from 1977? No wonder why it’s called weed. high times top strains of 1977.new theory: boomers never got high, they were just pretending and that’s why all their social movements and stuff were fake pic.twitter.com/lwcNZYJJHF— David Forum (@zlingray) April 16, 2020Now check out some of the other photos of weed that High Times featured in the 70s and 80s.  This full page spread from 1977 looks especially yummy:This cover from December 1977 as well:Some of the best buds available in 1978. Gotta get me some of that Columbian Gold.The choicest strains from 1983 look slightly better, but still pretty nasty.By 1986 things were starting to get a little bit better. You can actually purchase a subscription to the archives of High Times and take a look at all the past issues. They actually have some pretty good articles I hear.We’ve got all the funniest weed memes too!Now, I know that growing methods have massively improved and legalization has allowed for research and development processes unheard of 30-years-ago, but it’s still crazy to see how far we’ve come. Let’s take a look at some more recent photos. Here’s Leafly’s 2019 strain of the year, Wedding Cake.So, the question essentially asked in the original tweet I showed you was, “Did Boomers even get high?” They most definitely did, it just was way more mellow compared to today’s standards I’m guessing. According to MariJuanaBreak, the average THC percentage in the 70s ranged from 3 – 4%. With the average THC percentage of modern strains landing somewhere in the low 20’s the next question to ask is, “Is this really necessary?” Do we need weed where 1/4 of its mass is comprised of THC? Probably not.
