The "much stronger today" has been argued against, very well. That is to say, good arguments have been put forth. May be more a matter of the stronger strains being available to more people. ?

Given where we have been, with people locked up for mere possession, not to speak of actually growing it and undergoing military-like raids as a result, i'll take today's situation. But of course it has to be taken in context of EVERYTHING going on, cannot be extracted from the overall rapidly deteriorating state of society. Probably better that it is available than not, i would say. I do speak out against use intended to blot out awareness (which it actually is NOT very good at doing, as it *generally* makes the person who is ingesting/inhaling..... MORE sensitive.
Also, any drug entering a mental environment is a figure-ground thing. Those environments need to be considered as indicative of the potency question irrespective of the chemical composition.
It all depended. There was loads of schwag and dirt weed. Much pot had seeds, which meant male plants were around -- which weakens it.
For potent you had to have Alcapulco Gold, Thai weed, and eventually Indica hit the scene in some quantity in the mid 80s. However, there were no 200mg synthetic THC gummies that you could purchase by the pound (to name one thing).
True, the synthetic THC industrial stuff CREEPS me out.
We had homegrown, even seedless (sinsemilla) by the mid '70s in the SF Bay Area, i knew some of the growers, i was a small one by the early '80s. There is still schwag and dirt weed around, for the unaware and for the under aged.
