hahahah - great descriptions of an era gone...!!
How about that "Red Bud," as we used to call it.. All the little white seeds. Caramel flavour.. 40USD/z.
Also The "Gold," or 'Yellow," we used to say with reverence... Probably so bright gold colored due to a sun-drying... The flavour was heavenly. The High, sunny and happy...
Monkey Paw was a great sticky loose Thai (or some other SE Asia Cty) weed, back then. Whenever I am in Amsterdam, I look in the SHops for real Thai weed. Hard to find anymore - it is often Jamaican...

long live the monkey paw
This looks exactly like the Monkey Paw we used to pay $8 a gram from 1980 to 1985 in Troy, MI. I toked on a few of my Top 5 All-Timers during that stretch, including 4 that I saw mentioned earlier in this thread... Thai Weed, Puna Bud and Redbud (which I believe came from Panama). The Road Kill Skunk was called "Mert Skunk" or "Chucky Skunk" and it was outstanding. I also remember huffing Rainbow Bud. Man the Thai Weed was UNREAL, the best of the bunch imho
1. Thai Weed
2. Redbud
3. Monkey Paw
4. Puna Bud
5. Skunk
6. Rainbow Bud
Actually, in the process of hunting down Monkey Paw....still.....but the hunt did lead me to a very fortunate discovery. One of the individuals I have spoken with about MP, does in fact still have some seeds he collected from the early 70's batches of Colombian Gold. I have yet to sort through any of the seeds to even check germ ratios, but the up side is that they have been properly stored...so, I am excited about the unique opportunity to sort some super old skool genetics...
But...alas...still no Monkey Paw...

Hi DF... I remember the Colombian Gold well from that 80-85 stretch as well. The flavor was outstanding, just like the Blond Hash that was circulating for $6 a gram, but the high or expansion rates weren't in the same boat with Monkey Paw ~

2 years and nothing yet? Cmon people. Somebody gotta know someone with beans for DF.
HAHAHA...I'd love to see a keeper clone that has been held all these years, honestly. That is what would really suit my fancy!

About 3 years ago, an old friend received an alleged monkey paw clone. This is in the Saginaw Bay area of Michigan. It was grown outdoors put out late around the end of June. The plant was done around the third week of September. Yield was phenomenal, smaller buds, rock hard. After a 3 month+ cure it had a silver and red appearance. I had one guy try to convince me it wasn't real pot lol. The taste was slightly fruity and menthol. Somewhat difficult to describe, but hard to forget. The smoke was impossibly smooth going in and just a beast going out. It's still around look hard

Late 80's-early 90's Monkeypaw and Catpiss were the 2 name 'brands' everyone wanted. I remember the smoke being very similar to NL that was around.
