Hi all. Back in 94-96 in south florida, Boca Raton at the time there was weed floating around called crippie. It was $350 an ounce. The buds were all the same size, bright green and would stick to the bag. Near impossible to roll a joint even after cutting with scissors. It pisses me off that at age 15-17 I couldn't get anything but crippie weed or it was regs with seeds. I need to find the heritage of this plant strain and grow it, or possibly try to recreate it.
Here is the only info I can find. If it's even the same strain....
Tampa Crippie cut circa '93. Our most controversial variety, this was sourced by Cannabiscult666 in 2012 after living in Tampa from 1999 till 2008 and constantly recieving, and distributing this Florida staple, he found the holder of this piney, eucalyptus, menthol powerhouse online and after many conversations realized he had been one degree of separation to this gentleman while in florida the entire time he had his first love affair with the Crippie. Once this connection was acknowledged and verified the cut was procured via mail in 2013 and the preservation began. The origins of this cut are shrouded in lore and lies but the cut we procured was indeed the same cultivar Cannabiscult had the pleasure of enjoying as a youth. Appearing very much like an Og or Chemdog 91 hybrid we dont claim to know the lineage. What we do know is that it's an 8-9 week hybrid with the capacity for medium to heavy irrigation, and crippling potency. Broader leafed, it is best topped and scrogged to maximized yield. The potency tests results never fail to breach the 28%thc mark, and the flavor is unmistakable to those who remember it from the swamp in the mid 90s. Eucalyptus, menthol, pine like vicks vapor rub with subtle notes of isopropyl alcohol can be identified on the nose and taste. Stretching 2-3 times in flower with moderately long internodes she prefers topping to single meristem structure. This plant is the longest held variety in our stable and our personal favorite.
