One of the best tweaks…

One of my first audio memories was some sort of hallucinogenic and Mothers of Invention. While i left behind the little pieces of paper with cartoon characters, pot has been plentiful here in Colorado for decades.
It can make me anxious though. Be cool to discover great audio strains. Also micro dosing is pretty popular but i have yet to try it.
Also just finished some DoD contract work. Every once in a while a test comes up. I usually dont study for it. Great thread

Well, it is 12:56 am on January 1, 2025.
My system still works.
Cannabis is still the best audio tweak.
That is all.

Roger that. Meet the new year, same as the old year, but we won’t be fooled again. Or, we may already have.

It’s 11:43pm here on the west coast and I’ve indulged in a little of the Acapulco Gold that I grew this summer.
All is good.

I already failed my resolution by checking into this forum, but at least I will start the new year with a round of golf, like I did for the last 10 plus year🏌🏽♂️

Paul, hope you and family are well on this New Years Day,
Unfortunately true indica doesn’t exist any longer. Essentially everything available is a hybrid and/or many times a hybrid.
I have a strain from a friends father that has cultivated the same unchanged line from a UCLA longitudinal study funded by the Feds in 1972. He met the researchers while out hiking in the San Gabriel mountains. He’s used nothing else since.
It’s an easy mild low thc strain the likes of which are long gone. Nowadays it’s all so very potent.
Too much of a good thing in my opinion and experience.
P.S. the long term study hoped to learn the effects on the adolescent brain. Result: It’s not good for <18 year olds but for those older and much older no apparent long term issues or impacts.
I’ve tried to find the actual published paper to no avail. I suspect it was never published and I’ll only ever have the story that’s was shared with me and now you.

That’s too bad. I never really thought about it as strains of plants that once gone are gone forever. But, of course, you’re right. Sigh. Good that someone has kept some semblance of what was.
The info I had at the time was that Indica was the basis of the good hash we got out of the Mideast: Afghanistan which is where the black hash was from, Morrocco was famous for its blondes and greens, while once in a while there would be a mix of Pakistani something or other. All the years I lived in Germany (compliments of the US Army) we never once saw a leaf of weed. Always hash. It wasn’t until I got back to the States that the opposite was true.
One of the best experiences I ever had with that back in the day, when I grew for myself in the backyard, some of the very best Indica. That was a real treasure.
Thanks for the memories.

@Paul this sounds like A Passage to Bangkok!
Not sure what that is, but back in the day one of my favorites was Thai Sticks. There were so many varities that went from bad to amazing. If you got the right ones…heaven.

a song by Rush:
Our first stop is in Bogota
To check Colombian fields
The natives smile and pass along
A sample of their yield
Sweet Jamaican pipe dreams
Golden Acapulco nights
Then Morocco, and the East
Fly by morning light
We’re on the train to Bangkok
Aboard the Thailand Express
We’ll hit the stops along the way
We only stop for the best
Wreathed in smoke in Lebanon
We burn the midnight oil
The fragrance of Afghanistan
Rewards a long day’s toil
Pulling into Kathmandu
Smoke rings fill the air
Perfumed by a Nepal night
The Express gets you there
We’re on the train to Bangkok
Aboard the Thailand Express
We’ll hit the stops along the way
We only stop for the best
We’re on the train to Bangkok
Aboard the Thailand Express
We’ll hit the stops along the way
We only stop for the best
Yes, we’re on the train to Bangkok
Aboard the Thailand Express
We’ll hit the stops along the way
We only stop for the best

In the mid 70’s in order to get a buzz we had to smoke an entire bag. Then in 1975 I was introduced to Thai Stick. Oh. My. Goodness. That was a very obvious step up. Years later I learned about Hawaiian. That became my absolute favorite. What I liked about it was how it was so exhilarating. Not sink into the abyss and dream, more get up and dance.
These days when you go to the store you have so many choices. And if course everything today is so potent.
Good times, then and now.

The plants pictured above and below are Bruce Banner 3.0 from Dark Horse Genetics. She is my fav smoke because she doesn’t couch lock you. Actually gives you a nice push to get up and go and is very euphoric Very very strong though which I also like and smells great.

Mine is his 3.0 not his #3. He crossed two #3’s and called it BB 1.0. Then crossed that to his #3 again and called that BB 2.0. Then again making the 3.0 Probably many similarity’s though.
