I think I had some Romulan that was said to be Kauai. not sure it helps but the Rom was killer. Ever had the Romulan and Kauai side by side and compared?

I have no pics, I smoked the Kauai Electric when I lived on Kauai in 95.

But, if anyone has any real old High Times, there was a Center Fold Spread with Hawaiin strains, and they had a pic of both Kauai Electric and Lucky Day (both from Kauai)

I am pretty sure that HT spread was from the late 70's.

I am hauoli, and I used to pay 75$ straight up for 1/8......

Great to see everyone chime in. It was the bomb, my memory is of being finished off for the day.

thanks everyone for chiming in.

any bruddahs out there with modern pics, throw them up.

Expat,


thanks bro, those pics are so cool. My memory was correct, and the great thing is that that pic of the KE is exactly the way it looked on the South Shore of Kauai in 95.....Lucky Day, when I first heard that name I thought it was a joke, like hey bruddah, have a lucky day, when they give you a sack....

I am confident it is still being grown.

thanks again brother.

peace

This is a true story......I shit you not.

Waaaaaaay back, when I used to live in Hawaii in the late 70's-early 80's, I actually knew the grower that grew those buds. He had formed an informal grower's co-op with a group if his fellow growing/surfing buddies, and they were known to local's in the know as Abdul's Geurrilla's.

Abdul looked and acted like a "local boy", but was actually a transplant from the east coast. He would often go over and visit with another grower that I knew very well, and that is where I first met him while smoking copious amounts of pakalolo, only the way grower's can get away with.

One night in January, after everyone had returned home from the mainland after Chistmas, a mutual friend was throwing a party at a house on the windward side of Oahu, in Kailua, right on the beach in Lanikai. I was in attendance, along with Abdul and numerous other local punk-hoodlum's.

Later during that evening, a group of us, "moi" included, sat down for a heavy duty joint smokling session, and Abdul was sitting right next to me. He rolled a big fat one, sparked it up, and handed it me while bragging that all those buds that appeared in the latest High Times Christmas bud edition were all his, and that he took them to New York while visiting, and charged those meathead's big bucks at HT to take pictures of them. I cant remember the exact dollar amount he was paid, but it was more than enough to cover his expenses, and still have some left over. He also bragged as to how dumb all the editor's were to have believed him. He got all the editor's high after the photo shoot, but didn't leave them with any bud. Moreover, none of the buds pictured in the spread were from the outer islands. All the buds were grown in Oahu, most of them by Abdul himself in his back yard.......

thats why they all have the same Sativa look.

even Abduls Pride.

great story.

[pSi007]
