What's your local legendary strain of old?

[Cave Hill Cole]

Greetings all,

I'm a bit of a weed history nerd and love hearing about the different legendary strains from the past. Anyways I thought I would start a post to hear everyone's stories...if your interested in sharing. So what's the legendary local strain from your spot

Here's one from my neck of the woods. The "Te Puke Thunder". I had always been told it was brought over from Thailand in the 70s, grown in the Coromandel hills and had become a heirloom adjusted to NZ climate...but who knows, I reckon it was probably just a sweet name that stuck. Here's a helpful little video about a local dude looking for it. To be honest I reckon its long gone, but the doco is fun, a bit of kiwi weed culture

I'm pretty boring but my all time favourite back in the day was Euphoria by Dutch Passion. It was a great all-rounder with bumper harvest of stinky skunk-weed :) Kept that for about 4 years until life got in the way and Iost the strain.

I've tried to find a similar pheno a few times but could never find another one to match my original Euphoria. Absolute legend :)

Round my way it was Blues aka the "Livers cutt" it was all that was grown for years round here. My fave that i grew for many years back then was the Jack Herer by Sensi Seeds. Best tasting strain i tried way back was the NYC Diesel twas a real melon like stink and lush tasting bud.

Back when I was a young en late 90s if you managed to get some white widow , purple haze or northern lights …… you knew you was gonna be off ya nutt lmfao
But I guess the first memories I have is everyone calling all the first bud skunk. Everything was skunk weed lmfao amazing how quickly things changed from not been able to get anything other than solid , or squidgy block to no solid and to shitty leafy , seed filled green

Yes i remember when skunk landed round our way in mid to late 80`s, it proper looked like someone had puked on it, really pale green and pale orange coloured, it proper knocked ya block off did that stuff. Me thinks i need to do a decent skunk run at some point Paul.

I did a skunk #1 a few years back, can’t remember the seed bank but it was a good blast from the past, as was the northern light auto I did , can’t beat the old skool

Was all squidgy balck when i started smoking. Wish i could still get some. If you were lucky you might get some white widdow but was normally a choice between hash, english or dutch. Been a few years since i had a joint of dutch. Thank christ lol.

Used to watch a Kiwi show called Back of the Y. Nut jobs They were always mentioning Te Puke Thunder.
Has anyone managed to track any down yet?
I'm going to dig out the BOTY and Randy Campbell DVDs.
