I've hit on this b4. Never in all my 30+ yrs of toking some of the finest the Pac N W has to offer have I seen such a predominance of upper-mids passing off to a new market volume of largely naive medical users. Sure, you could get bait-n-switched before with pseudo decent bud that wasn't as good as it looked and smelled, but more really good KGB tended to be around the underground circuit. Moreover back in the day when you laid out $200+ for an 'O' the nugs were consistently gnarly top to bottom, with almost no duffy air buds and shake dust to gag on. Who buys a bottle of pills where those at the bottom of the bottle are barely half-strength??? SOG, or forget it. Mid/bottom branches below the canopy are crap, period! Often about half as potent or less. The bigger the commercial type grow, the lower the quality. It's a fact, Jack!
