Post your oldest plant pic

[Charles U Farley]

I know there's a bunch of you old fucks like me around, so let's see the oldest plant picture ya got.

This is from 1978, before Ron and Nancy declared war on us, developed and printed at a Fotomat. The guy at the window says, "Nice plants, could I do that?" As you can tell, Type IV Hybrids were around in the 70's. These came from plants that were grown by the Zion Coptics in Jamaica, brought into Miami via Haulover Cut by the Cubans and distributed up and down the East coast. At UF, it was known as Gainesville Green, Mean Green in Bayside and Howard Beach.

Notice the adjustable light stand ladders in addition to the adjustable plant stand boxes as well.

You didn't specify plant type. That was a mistake...

The largest and oldest-known living plant on Earth has been discovered in Australia. Posidonia australis is an ancient and incredibly resilient seagrass that has been discovered in Shark Bay, Western Australia. It's at least 4,500 years old and spans 180km of shallow ocean.

Almost spewed my ice tea on the monitor at the sight of that! My wife said, "Oh, can you grow one like that for _me_?".

Reminds me of my first grow when I had a shop light setup on cinder blocks and would add blocks as the plants got taller. It really made me appreciate the crappy tent I have now. I've only been growing since 2017 though so no cool old pics. Let's see you hippie growers in your bell bottoms, come on.

How nostalgic. Thanks
Phototron grow. Super Lemon Haze.
Exciting times.

I'm in awe. I used to fantasize about the phototron in college in the 80s all the time. It was in High Times magazine and the phone number was 1-800-Got-Buds for the company. I can't remember my own number today but I still remember that one lol. Super cool pic!

The only time any of my plants got photographed was when the fuzz found a patch once . Made the town newspaper...

I was born in 55, so older brothers and sisters might have been hippies but me and my friends were _heads_.

My only known pics were taken by black helicopters in the 70’s

I was born in 1980, and remember seeing them in my dad's High Times and wanting one when I was like 8.

The worst use of a UH1 Huey helicopter ever. They're such work horses they will still be doing drug interdiction crap down in South America for a hundred years I bet. I love the sound of it, very distinct for a chopper. Not welcoming noise if you're growing outdoors illegally I bet.

My Uncle Dick in 1977, and an older pic of one of my other family members, but Mom doesn't remember which sibling.
I had pics once of Uncle Rod, real Hillbilly with Hatfield/Mcoy beard down to belly, sitting on front porch of log cabin in overalls, with a double barrel 12 gauge, and weed as far as you could see. That was in North Carolina, I'll poke around a bit for it.
