When we were kids the strain of the 60's-70's was sativa which produced a mentally energized psychedelic buzz. With the rise of super growers in Amsterdam, who were trying to mimic heroin highs, and also because it is a shorter denser more commercially profitable plant, Indica strains started to dominate with its physically paralyzing body buzz. Now most of the winners of the cannabis cup in Amsterdam are a blend of genetics. But even though I also keep hearing this claim about THC levels, my memory is that some of the kick ass "Acapulco Gold" strains of our youth were no slouches.
