Only saw it a few times, and it was good.
But imho, it wasnt on the same level as the high potency stuff they are cranking out these days.
Had some pretty dang potent Thai sticks back in the early/mid 70s as well.
Mexican and Columbian buds were quite prevalent on the West Coast until about 1975/76 or so, when the Emerald Triangle and Oregon ops really got going.
By the late 70s, imported weed on the west coast was pretty much a thing of the past.
Coke took over, and the weed wasn’t nearly as good as what was being produced locally.
That’s what I heard anyways….
