I am jealous!
You are the first one to comment on this reference and I have been dropping it all over RIU and another site!
You rock DST!
I was just looking for some Punta Rojo seeds but they can't sell them to the US. I really want to get a nice pure Sativa Red. The Hawaiian bud from the old days was red and thought to have been from the Punta Rojo or the Panama Red line. I am looking for that Strain. The other I would like to find is the old Elephant Thai.
What is your favorite strain from back in the day?
Cheers,
Mo

haha, Westy is right, Soap Bar was called that because of the shape. It wasn't until the 90's that it became corrupted.
I remember getting some really nice African weed (no name). Most of the bud we got in Scotland was block and passed off as Thai. But this one time the stuff was actually unpressed and boy was it strong. Not so much of a high to it, more like an indica. But my fave was the Northern Lights clone that went around my way from the late 80's. It was Nothern Light A. It was 49 days and was an explosive high. I could smoke a few tokes and would have bright red eyes, lol. Unfortunately the variety in the UK came more in the form of hashish, and I smoked plenty of excellent stuff in the late 80's, and even some in the early nineties when you really had to root around to find stuff. The hashish in The Netherlands then was also great, Manali Cream, Red/Blond Lebanese (we also got that in the UK). I could prattle on....lol.

lmfao, shortbread ya cheeky scally! I don't like to heavy tannins
Hello lad, good question. I would say they are looking about half way there, or there abouts. The pre-flowers on one of them started off beginning of September, but really they never started kicking in until maybe half way through September. Probably equivalent of about 4 weeks.
you can see and provide some really nice colouring indeed. More of a leaf thing than within the flower.
Scotia, last year we had all our sun in Spring, then about 2 weeks of solid sun in September (which was an absolute saviour) The girls exploded in those two weeks and gave me some real nice smoke in the end.

Bhang
Bhang is an old Indian recipe for a powerful weed drink
2 cups water
1 ounce marijuana (fresh leaves and flowers of a female plant preferred)
4 cups warm milk
2 tablespoons blanched and chopped almonds
1/8 teaspoon garam masala [a mixture of cloves, cinnamon, and cardamom] (What the fuck is this?)
1/4 teaspoon powdered ginger
1/2 to 1 teaspoon rosewater
1 cup sugar
Bring the water to a rapid boil and pour into a clean teapot. Remove any seeds or twigs from the marijuana, add it to the teapot and cover. Let this brew for about 7 minutes. Now strain the water and marijuana through a piece of muslin cloth, collect the water and save. Take the leaves and flowers and squeeze between your hands to extract any liquid that remains. Add this to the water. Place the leaves and flowers in a mortar and add 2 teaspoons warm milk. Slowly but firmly grind the milk and leaves together. Gather up the marijuana and squeeze out as much milk as you can. Repeat this process until you have used about 1/2 cup of milk (about 4 to 5 times). Collect all the milk that has been extracted and place in a bowl. By this time the marijuana will have turned into a pulpy mass. Add the chopped almonds and some more warm milk. Grind this in the mortar until a fine paste is formed. Squeeze this paste and collect the extract as before. Repeat a few more times until all that is left are some fibres and nut meal. Discard the residue. Combine all the liquids that have been collected, including the water the marijuana was brewed in. Add to this the garam masala, dried ginger and rosewater. Add the sugar and remaining milk. Chill, serve, dream on.
