Well I can put a check in the box as having smoked lots of weed in the 70s. I was fortunate enough to live in major port city. We annually looked forward to January and February as we knew then next harvest from Colombia was soon to be uncrated. Most of the ColomBo, both Red and Gold, was dried, then packed in burlap sacks and cured during the boat trip. I "witnessed" several huge bundles being broken down, a burlap pressed square was about 30 lbs. It wasn't your grandpa's Mexican for sure, but I can't remember any bud being "Frosty" or white during those years. Sticky, aromatic, awesome Gold Bud, but it was not visually crystal laden. I wish I had some now to truly compare with today's strains side by side, and not from 40+ year old memories. We tend to remember tings with more glory sometimes! BUT Colombian Gold was tops, and Red was not a slouch either! But no, I don't remember with tricky buds in the early to mid 70s.
Thanks
