Puffers

Puffers, didn't you get the memo? California's all about the OG's and the Kushes. But especially the OG's.
oh I got the memo. I have watched the changes in the pot culture around me in different parts of the bay for the last 10+ yrs. I remember when people talked about purple weed like it was a mythical unicorn or big foot. A few rappers start talking about purple kush and some of the other purple phenotype strains and all of sudden BAM purple weed everywhere and I mean everywhere. Then it was OG, blue dream, and now cookies. The sway that Bay Area (and consequently later many other areas) hip hop has in the pot culture up here is astronomical IMO. I only wish that everyone would stop getting so caught up on the IN strains sometimes and just breed for genetics, and better strains tailored for different medical uses. Instead the demand drives the supply towardswhat sells, so more and more people just grow the popular stains because that's what moves the quickest. I don't really expect any less now a days, seems like theirs just so many sheeple in that herd mentality.
Edit: I don't know ifs really answered shipdits question earlier regarding what's exotic in the bay. I don't know how exotic most strains really are around here at least, but I live basically 1 hr or 2 hrs tops from Sacramento, Frisco, Oakland, Santa Rosa, San Jose and surrounding east bay, and many other large metro areas. Literally hundred's of dispensaries to choose from if I REALLY wanted to find something. Some of subcools TGA strains or real Jamaican Lambsbread is at the top of my list when I decide take the time to go strain hunting.
