View attachment 19072516 One leaf from my very first plant that I grew and flowered from start to finish, a Shiva Shanti bagseed. Almost 25 years ago. It's a miracle the book is still in (almost) one piece. But that's how I started before diving into internet. Reading a shitload of books and sending cash to seedbanks in Netherlands to buy my first "real" seeds and so on.
The problem with Mex from the old days and how it got its bad reputation as "schwag" from snooty elitist yankees who got old cut brickweed is that it was, yes, shit weed....... not properly cured and handled by the mexicans from the growers and everyone in between (very seedy, dried in the sun and pressed into bricks with manually operated hydraulic presses) and by the time it reached NY
The bricks we used to get were usually pretty good quality. Compressed, and usually fairly seeded, but ugly bricks like this one, full of loose seeds and sticks were rare in my circle. Maybe once or twice a year we'd get some Jamaican tossed our way, the plug said he reserved that for his best customers. It was a rare treat, and usually hoarded by me!
In Miami in the late '60s - early '70s, the Jamaican I used to get was sinse, developed by the Ethiopian Zion Coptic Church and was never bricked... although I knew people who bricked it up before it went up to Bensonhurst and Bayside.The Jamaican was always in smaller bricks, super light green with thick vibrant orange hairs.
Yeah I don't know about Colombian, before my time... I'm in Michigan, so I'm sure it was bricked for transport. It was never nearly as compressed as the usual Mexi stuff. Not loose, but not pressed completely flat either. I'm trying to remember if there were seeds... and I just can't recall.In Miami in the late '60s - early '70s, the Jamaican I used to get was sinse, developed by the Ethiopian Zion Coptic Church and was never bricked... although I knew people who bricked it up before it went up to Bensonhurst and Bayside.
Now the Columbian that came in through Haulover Cut wasn't bricked, it was fucking bailed.
These millennial fucks, with their easy, legal seed drops where they get a fucking FedEx tracking number and bitch and complain because they're not there in 48 hours, would just _never_ understand the process we went through.
