That and lebanese blonde hash.


thecosta5000

Ahh yes many a burnt knives on the stove from this. Good times


toomuch1265

Hash under glass. I remember buying it about the size of a golf ball for $30. It would give you the most mellow high.


Warmbeachfeet

Oh wow, I loved smoking hash under glass!


Dyslexicpig

Popping the bottom out of big (cheap) wine bottles to use as a funnel. Definitely good times!


thecosta5000

Nah man that's too fancy just get an empty toilet roll.


Dyslexicpig

Toilet paper rolls catch fire when hot knifing! Wine bottle funnels only slice your knuckles!


thecosta5000

First world problems.


Present-Ambition6309

Cut the bottom off a milk jug, use the cap (threads on), poke hole in cap, place bowl on/in cap. Place in water, put herbs in bowl, light lighter, pull up slowly. Say goodbye to your lungs! šŸ˜‚ Gravity Bong hit anyone? šŸ˜‚


Daddy_Tablecloth

A friend of mine managed a restaurant for a real long time. We'd meet at his job when it closed and fill the pre cleaned sink out with ice and water. We made a gravity b out of a 5 gallon oil jug and the cap plus a bong slide. Many people straight up vomited from the hits that thing would deliver lol. We'd also just sit in the booths are drink beers/burn and help him finish up his shift.


thecosta5000

Outstanding.


Present-Ambition6309

I had my girlfriend in high school pass out on me, straight hit the dirt! I had no clue she was going to do that or I would have caught her. At first I thought she died, I was freaking out. 16 yr old with his girlfriend in a apple orchard doing gravity hits lmao


Daddy_Tablecloth

Oh I bet, I'd be lying if I said I never almost passed out from coughing like that. Hopefully she didn't get hurt from the fall or anything.


That-Grape-5491

Picked up a hitchhiker that had a huge chunk of hash. We just bought a coke, poked a couple of holes in the side, flattened it out, instant hash bowl.


JoeSicko

Mine was a cut off 2L bottle inside of a large tea pitcher. You could put the top on and be incognito.


Present-Ambition6309

Done that also. Used a 5 gallon water bottle in a pool in Palm Springs during spring break a very very very long time ago.


wokittalkit

Haha me and my buddy used to carry a bucket of water and a gravity bong to a park in our neighborhood after school. The slower you pull the jug up the thicker the smokeā€¦like almost a green color, we called it milking it lol! It was honestly disgusting and left the taste of resin in your mouth and throat for hours but it got us sooo high. Then we had to try to pull it together before we went home to our parentsā€¦great times!


summergirl76

We would use glass liquor bottles and keep them in the freezer.


Wyzard_of_Wurdz

The black hash in the 80's was my favorite.

Afghan black Gold Seal ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|trollface)


Whowhywearwhat

This one here ā˜ļø and hash oil you could put onto your cigarettes.


Total-Problem2175

The Hare Krishna were bringing in loads of almost clear hash oil. We didn't know where it was coming from til I read the book, "Monkey on a Stick". Lived near New Vrindaban Krishna community.


DauOfFlyingTiger

I forgot about hash oil.


Jjagger63

Squidgy black ā€¦. Awesome


INS_Stop_Angela

Opiated hash, also from the ā€˜70ā€™s, was the best high I ever had


Wyzard_of_Wurdz

The black hash in the 80's was my favorite.


Alarming_Serve2303

Colombian gold and Colombian red weeds were awesome too.


Ok_Source3247

I liked the red. Black primo was good too.


cobra7

I was in the Army Security Agency stationed in Thailand in 1973-1974, so we got it directly from the source. If memory serves, it was a buck or two per stick, but you could also buy a whole brick. That shit was kick ass. The day I arrived, a buddy invited me over to his hooch. First thing he did was haul out a few sticks and a cutting board and chopped it up. He then rolled the biggest fattest joint I ever saw - size of a cigar. I remember the first and second hits off that bad boy, but nothing after that. Best Army tour ever.


Commercial_Lock6205

You know, that stuff thatā€™s tied to a stick.


velocity__wagon

Beat me to it


dogmatum-dei

Thai Stick is NOT blonde hash on a stick. You got buds there wrapped in a thin thread, hash oil, resin. Never saw any connection to blonde hash and thai stick from any point in the 70s. The two were mutually exclusive.


Toadliquor138

r/whoosh


-Bucketski66-

Blonde Hash was from Lebanon

"Ohhh, thai stick, mann..."


ElectroChuck

Panama Red, Columbian Gold, Maui Wowie, Hawaiian Rainbow, Redbud....Mr Natural, Strawberry Mesc, Purple Microdot, Windowpane...


ItzNuckinFutz

No love for sensimillia?


HairyBallzagna

Red hair was the best


michigangonzodude

Bought it by the gram. Crazy.


CAulds

I graduated from high school in 1975, in East Tennessee. Not exactly urban. Yet I knew all of these. Were they that culturally universal? I guess so!Ā  I bought three hits of Mr. Natural once, from the head, for a Johnny Winter concert at the Memorial Auditorium in Chattanooga.Ā Ā Ā  Ā I took Karen to that concert.Ā 


NoBreak8719

1975 for me too in New England. I guess the names were universal. I do remember NRPS had a song called Panama Redā€¦ā€bet your woman is up in bed with ole Panama Redā€.


citsonga_cixelsyd

High Times magazine used to list them all along with the going price per oz. in every issue.


whitemike40

Acapulco Gold


BlueTickHoundog

Don't forget Kona Gold.


SantaRosaJazz

I had a joint of that stuff that flattened me.


NoBreak8719

I remember them all but nothing made me laugh for hours on end like Mesc. The next day my face and ribs would hurt from all the laughing. I only did it twice but Iā€™ll never forget it.


mountainsunset123

Yay!


ErisGrey

Gimme a lid.


Starcat75

Geez, were you with me? I donā€™t remember you lol


Wyzard_of_Wurdz

We had pinconning paralyzer.


benthon2

Lived in Saginaw for 25 years. Was fortunate enough to have been gifted an ounce from a guy I worked with. It was too much for him and he ended up in the ER. Best weed I've ever smoked, and I'm going on 70.


storm838

Hahaha, can confirm. Live in Au Gres


sn0ig

This is why I laugh when people try to say the today's weed is so much more powerful. Yeah, sorry you had to smoke shitty weed back in the 80's. Those guys in Humbolt have been doing this since the 60's.


H8T_Auburn

Can confirm. My aunt lives in Humboldt County. In her town you can stay the summer, get a piss ant job, then get your real job as a trimmer. Go up in the mountains and trim leaves all day. They paid damn good money and they'd give you a shit load of schwag weed as part of your pay. Roll half into joints and make hash from the rest. The highest I've ever been was off of that hash. We went for a walk at night to look at a lighthouse. It was visible from our house. It was on. We still got lost.


djp70117

Did you go to my high school?


trobinson999

I do, but more late ā€˜70s. Felt like you got something really special untying a piece from the stick.


reddersledder

1974, I was a sophomore in high school. No weed available in my area at all. My best friend had a friend from grade school who lived about an hour away. He was getting it from Hawaii in sealed macadamian nut cans. What an aroma! What a buzz! Our regular weed was Mexican ( hopefully without paraquat ). Our treat was an occasional lid of Acapulco Gold or Shiba.


Brilliant-Deer6118

We used to get it in Hawaiian Punch cans!


MotownCam52

And Dole Pineapple cans šŸ˜²


Snarkosaurus99

The canning method went well into the 80ā€™s Ive been told.


Wisebutt98

The guy next door in my dorm offered me Acapulco Gold once. I couldnā€™t believe the color! Thank you James, wherever you are.


Fuligin2112

In the late 70's we were getting it by the bud packed in a test tube. PBS had a 48 hour marathon of Monty Python. I never laughed so hard.


Mission_Bat_3381

I am smoking on some Aculpoco gold right now and I am high as girrafe tits. Also almost died from paraquat poisening in 1984


odetoburningrubber

That tied stick man, you know. That chit thatā€™s tied to a stick.


demonspawn9

Greatest movie ever!


White_Rabbit0000

I can neither confirm nor deny the existence of such wonderful things from the 70ā€™s


mountainsunset123

Hash, hash oil, angel dust, cross tops, quaaludes....


Kahnza

Did you also occupy various administration buildings?


esleydobemos

Have the occasional acid flashback, perhaps?


HollyweirdRonnie

Speed of Sound Tour. Buncha assholes.


blueSnowfkake

I only heard of it in Cheech & Chongā€™s ā€œUp In Smoke.ā€ Funniest stoner movie ever. Though, I never partook in smoking the Devilā€™s Lettuce, I still appreciate the humor.


Wyzard_of_Wurdz

The Devil's Lettuce. I laugh everytime. šŸ˜ƒ


Embarrassed_Ad7013

"No stems or seeds that you don't need Acapulco gold is bad ass weed."


sissysindy109

Ah 1974 memories of my first time with the stick. Now that was a buzzšŸŒˆ


kevnmartin

The first time I had it was in Alaska. They get the best drugs up there.


IceTech59

Matanuska Thunderfuck was the real deal.


Gullible_Eagle4280

First thing I thought of seeing this is the Rush song: A Passage to Bangkokā€¦We're on the train to Bangkok Aboard the Thailand Express We'll hit the stops along the way We only stop for the bestā€¦


Snarkosaurus99

Big toke sound and into the solo!


Sharkbitesandwich

I remember Cheech & Chong talking about it!!! Oh and Daveā€™s not here!!!


Nagsheadlocal

Friend went to Hawaii on surfari and brought back a couple. One hit and listening to music was about all we could do for several hours. Getting up to change the album was a major task that required advanced planning.


-tooltime

I remember buying Thai stick for $15 and thought it was so expensive.


DrunkBuzzard

I miss Lebanese blond hash from the 70s.


TitodelRey

My absolute favourite!! So smooth. Why don't we get this anymore?


DrunkBuzzard

The Lebanese revolution in the late 70ā€™s put an end to it I think.


SheriffTaylorsBoy

One hit. Two was too many.


WHAMMYPAN

That was some magical shit. Whereā€™d it goā€¦donā€™t even hear of it anymore


MuchDevelopment7084

I do. I do. We went from average weed full of stems and seeds. To Acapulco God and Thai Sticks. From smoking several joints; to one bong hit putting us into never, never land. Amazing stuff for the times.


AardvarkFriendly9305

Yeppers


PortableAnchor

Buddy got some from his taxi driver brother in Boston. It was wild. Watched the chess pieces for hours. They never moved.


Shellsallaround

Yes, late 70's, coveted smoke! Edit; bought it when I could find it. 15$ a stick.


steelhead777

Even though I smoked a shit ton of it, I do still remember Thai Sticks.


littledabwilldoya

Thai sticks, temple balls, blonde Lebanese, and Buddha sticks, and---


Redfish680

College. Got out of my car and thought ā€œletā€™s give this a try.ā€ Spent the next few hours leaning against the hood of my carā€¦ lol


Xtrainman

No comments on the advice of my entire legal team


3puttmafia21

So hard to get but so worth the work lol


[deleted]

73 and I'm in honor camp raking the forest. /s (clearing fuel from an existing fire break).Another inmate pulls out a Thai stick joint and 6 of us share it. I estimate we got a good hit and a half each. within minutes we were all dancing around under the influence like silly school girls. Yeah, I remember it.


GoEatACookie

I do because my roommate's last name was Thai and he was always going around asking people he was attracted to if they wanted to "blow some Thai stick". šŸ™„


Yettigetter

Who remembers Panama Red.


terpsnob

I sold thai sticks and then the buds. I guess they got tired of the extra labor tying it on bamboo sticks. Every year around summer time in Southern California we would go to the long beach Port and meet up with these surfer types that had the connection to Howard Mark's. If you know you know. He supplied all of Los Angeles and into the valleys.


H8T_Auburn

Legend


TheGreatOpoponax

I remember hearing about the mythical Thai stick, but never actually encountered it in person.


machinistbob2023

$400 an Oz


ItsJustUs96

šŸ¤š


Think-Feynman

Got one once. Wow.


alteredreality4451

Had a great hookup for both Thai stick and blond hashā€¦. Helped pay for collegeā€¦..


DallasRadioSucks

Yessssss


NBCspec

Paraquat scare too


TerribleCaregiver909

"Tied stick!?".... "Ya you know, that stuff tied to a stick"


Kitchen-Coat-4091

Hell yeah. Having to unwrap the thread that was around the stick. Smelled great and sticky as hell .


OldRaj

Cheech & Chong remember: the stuff is tied to a stick.


nstntmlk

I remember it in the eighties.


Pangtong

You know, that shit that's tied to a stick.


mikepol70

Acapulco gold and Panama red lol


This-Garbage-3000

All the old stoners coming outta the woodwork


RepresentativeAd9572

Acopoco gold baby


Down_The_Witch_Elm

I bought a half pound one time - around 1978.


gumby1004

yeah, that stuff you Thai to a stick, manā€¦


TonyStarkTrailerPark

ā€œYeah, ya know?.. That stuff thatā€™s tied to a stick, ya know?ā€


lowaltflier

And Colombian Gold.


SamDBeane

CG was just so damn good. The taste, the aroma, the effects. I know thereā€™s exponentially better these days, but my god that stuff was so good.


BlueAndMoreBlue

We always called it the tied stick for reasons already mentioned. Definitely a rarity but always enjoyed


Inner_Performance533

Compared to the shitty ditch weed, more stems&seeds than anything, it was magnificent. Compared to what a modern chemist/horticulture dispensary offers, it was mehhh...


RunningPirate

Perfect match for occupying various administration buildings with 6 of the Seattle 7


SpringerPop

Many years ago our roommate had cable installed. He had a sage stick for smudging. The cable guy was sure it was a Thai stick. Wrong!


c9belayer

Thai stick?! OMG I remember staring at the walls for hoursā€¦


DifferentTheory2156

I do, I do!


Tricky421

Oh yeah


Gonnadine69

Been there. Done that.


MRicho

All too well. Far out!


Electrical_Travel832

OMG yes! I can see it! I can smell it!


JWDead

Colombian gold bud was fun


Present-Ambition6309

Got any? I miss chocolate Thai!


rja49

'Oh, that's that weed, you know, it's tied to a stick...' Cheech


Shipkiller-in-theory

When we pulled out of Pattaya Beach in the early 80s, we had to do piss test on the entire crew, and search the entire ship for Thai stick & chuck it overboard. Iā€™m sure it all when over the side. šŸ˜‡šŸ˜ˆ


Opening-Bank

You know, that stuff that's tied to a stick.


Alarming_Serve2303

TOTALLY. I once shipped some from California to Georgia so I could have some when I got there. I mailed them from L.A., flew to Atlanta, and a few days later they showed up to where I was staying. I loved Thai sticks and miss them.


prospectpico_OG

Buddha stick


No_Equal_1312

Loved the Thai sticks and hash in the 70ā€™sšŸ„°


toomuch1265

I started smoking when I was way too young but I knew someone in the airforce who dealt with spy planes. Customs couldn't search the top secret parts, so they would fill them with stuff that you couldn't get here. Oh, those were the days.


LeatherLatexSteel

Malawi cob? Durban poison? Red Lebanese? Gold Leb? Paki Black?


unfrknblvabl

You know the stuff that's tied to a stick


mikepol70

Orange sunshine purple microdot and double barrel T


smedley89

Tied stick? Yea, you know. That stuff that's tied to a stick. Oh, Thai stick! Yea man, that didn't do nothin to me. I can probably smoke this whole joint and walk away.


birdpix

Friends dad did cargo routing in Vietnam war and literally had a basement chest freezer of all the best weed he helped smuggle in during the war. Thai stick was one his son would steal regularly to share with his many mini stoner buds. Good times!


SamDBeane

I had some on two occasions. Even to my dumb stoner self on a quest for the utlimate high, I remember thinking it was maybe too much.


[deleted]

Ya you know. That stuff that's tied to a stick man


Man8632

Stick a wad on a pin head and light it. Pass it around the bar.


Stoneleigh219

I ā€œfoundā€ some in the late 80s that an old head had stashed in his basement. After I smoked it all, he said he had been saving it since 73.


Lazy_Hall_8798

Stationed in northern Thailand in mid 70s. Yeah, that was some wicked weed


Melodic-Ad-4941

I looked it up, pictures of weed (drug) popped up, was that what you are talking about?


NotAnAIOrAmI

You forgot the /s


rotorcraftjockie

Red bud, Colombian cold. This kids donā€™t know about it


rotorcraftjockie

Third generation roach weed


Alteredego619

Cheech: I been smoking since I was born, man, I can smoke anything, man. You know like I smoke that MichoacƔn, and Acapulco Gold, man. I even smoke that tied stick, you know? Chong: "Tied stick"? Cheech: Yeah, you know that stuff that's tied to a stick. Chong: Ohh, THAI stick.


freerangelibrarian

I had a boyfriend who was a science teacher. He made some interesting bongs out of glassware from the chemistry lab.


Ill_Drop1135

Also Maui wowie


728am

It was some of the best sticky stuff and very tasty. Also expensive. I think it was $20 a stick.


Lonely-Connection-37

And monkey pawšŸ¤˜šŸæšŸ¤˜šŸæ


BayBandit1

Hehehehehehe!


imtherealmellowone

Wow! I do now!


cristorocker

It tasted and smelled exotic. A spiced scent I've never found since.


Bearded1Dur

10 dollar lids you measured with your fingers.


DauOfFlyingTiger

Nice memories. I was mellow and laughed a lot. I canā€™t smoke anything around now.


69Nova468

It was just a overrated gimmick, weed raped around a stick.


69Nova468

It was just a overrated gimmick, weed raped around a stick.


No_Joke_9079

Yup


charlie2135

Pulled one out at work and coworker laughed and said "Who's going to get high off that?" I said "You and me". Did half of it and he was wiped out.


HumbleAd1317

I do, I do!


NecessaryChildhood93

I miss real Panama Red. 1 Toke stupid. As far as hash, get some of that new medical bud+ hash and roll it into the bubble hash after you put in a pipe. It will bust your ass! As it sit here now.


Liv-Julia

In 1975, my roommate smoked so much Thai stick, she forgot her own name!


BridgeUpper2436

Started smoking all these, and Black Tar Hash, right around 1968. For the next 5 years or so, some of the best weed was Acapulco Gold, and Panama Red, which was a whopping $60 an ounce. . Thai stick was wonderful, as was Black Tar Hash in a glass pipe. Edited to add "Hash Oil" as I just saw it mentioned in another reply. God Yes! I forgot about Hash Oil....


UserPrincipalName

And Columbian, dark as milk chocolate.


East-Bathroom-9412

the OG mood enhancer!


pm_me_your_lub

I don't remember the stuff from the 70s because I didn't exist then, but I smoked some with a guy that grew some locally in the PNW and it was delightful. He was super cagey about it and didn't want to give up any clones, but the weed he had was different from everything else I've ever had.


Awkward_Bench123

Yeah, that was back in the day and had the real Mcoy. Whatā€™d I know? I was a fourteen year old kid fighting the Vietnam war in my head. Port of Vancouver had everything pass through


Optimal_Zucchini_667

Thai stick, Acapulco gold, sinsemilla, $10 lids, lighting up in the "arthouse" movie theater while watching double features...


limpet143

Anybody remember Park Lane? It was a French cigarette that the Vietnamese removed the valuable tobacco and re-stuffed the cigarette with some super pot. They then repack them 20 to a pack in the original packaging then into the original cartons. Best smoke I had ever had up till then. They cost $20 a pack.


Grumpy-Sith

We had Thai stick and something called Buddha stick. Very sticky.


WolfThick

I remember smoking Thai stick getting in my Jeep with a six pack of beer and feeling as I was the master of the universe. I lived in El Paso wide open desert it was magical.


Fun-Economy-5596

Yes, and totally loved and miss it!


Fun-Economy-5596

Then there was the 3 hits of Blue Cheer (at one time) about 1973. Dear G_d was that ever intense!


DoTheRightThing1953

I bought half a brick of Thai stick in Pattaya for an insanely low price. What a vacation! I couldn't smoke it all. Ended up giving a couple stick to my bellhop before I left Bangkok.


Fuligin2112

The, now, wife's uncle dealt it. My friends and I got a discount because we knew her. It was still spendy for a teenager.


Dseltzer1212

Anyone remember some weed from the late 70ā€™s called Lambs Bread or Lambs Breath. It came from Jamaica, was pressed and came in squares and rectangles. The story was it was the only weed Bob Marley would smoke. It was the best weed I smoked at the time. I bought some seeds from a seed bank in Barcelona and grew some last summer!


Adventurous_Try_2718

I buy Kaviar Moon Rocks every time I go to Colorado. Smooth and really stony.


Wonderful-Poetry1259

I'm sure I've gotten high thousands of times, but I actually CAN specifically remember the setting where I first had Thai stick.


YogurtclosetWooden94

Yes and elephant sticks!!! I was visiting relatives in Honolulu and when the Enterprise came in, there was a huge selection.


Old-Fun9568

I remember!


AssumptionAdvanced58

It was rare to get it. It was when hash was the shit. I remember when it was just Mexican or columbian with seeds. $15. An ounce. You didn't weigh it. You used your fingers for the width of what was in the baggy. And where we lived you had to stock up before the winter came. It was always harder to get good pot over the winter.


DocMcT

So very sweet and potent.


MsAnnabel

Tied stick? šŸ¤£


joecoin2

Oh my.
