Unless you lived in Cali, smoking bud was unheard of until the early 80's. You bought a bag of weed, it was ground/crushed leaf, maybe some bud, and seeds. I never even heard of Thai Stick until about 1983, and even then it had seed in it! Sinsemilla? what kinda weed is that???........
Back in the 70s I would take a little sieve, and gently run the pot through that.
I'd separate out the seeds, sticks and stems. Then I'd seperate the powder from
the leaf. The powder got smoked first, by itself. Then I'd wrap a gram of cheap
Moroccan hash in tinfoil, warm it with a match to make it soft, and then crumble it
into the leafy parts. I didn't know it at the time, but I was mixing indica with sativa.
Which is what all the fancy breeding does now.
