      We had strains with over 20% THC in the early 90s, now it’s barely over 30%. You’re making the difference sound more extreme than it is, especially when comparing to just a decade ago.

      Comparing weed from the 60s to weed from the 80s, now that’s where you will acurally see a crazy difference.

      The only major difference that happened in the last decade is that dabbing got wildly popular, but the flower did not change significantly in the last 10 years

        Uh, maybe in California.

        You could sometimes get ahold of the 20% stuff where I am in the early 00s, but the dealers would mark it up to like $60/eighth so it was only for special occasions.

        Everything else was “beasters” or “mids”

          In your experience, do you think I could get away with growing in a tent in an apartment with a carbon scrubber and negative air pressure in the tent or should I not even attempt it?

            In my opinion no. A good carbon filter (I recommend Rhino Pro) will almost eliminate the smell, but even if you use automatic watering, at some point you will have to open the tent to harvest the plant, at which point your neighbors will definitely notice if they are home. There is definitely a risk of getting caught if it’s illegal in your country
