Old toker has stated the case correctly. Old school 'lumbo did NOT have piney notes. It had a ultra pungent sweetness that is difficult to describe but once you've smoked it you never forget. And it did go down smoothly but then 'expand' in your lungs and almost always make you cough. It was also full of spotted seeds. Seediest weed ever. But it was sublime...the high was indeed almost psychedelic. You could not do anything but stay in one place and observe the visuals and laugh for at least an hour. Then a trip to the ice cream parlor was in order, at which you would absolutely worship a well-made banana split. Then a nap was necessary. It was hypno -couch weed if there ever was. I would love to be able to find it again. All the gorgeous sinse I have seen over the years....all that skunk and all the pine; none of it has come close to that old school seedy columbian gold.

This is not your high school Columbian Gold, but then again it doesn't cost $5 for a 1/4 ounce. This is a nice smooth smoke with an earth taste and just the right amount of mellow and pain relief to get me thru a couple of hours. #420sweepstakes
In the 70’s this was the only strain we used to get. Their was another columbian strain we called redbud, but can’t find any reference to it anywhere. What I remember about CG was that I laughed uncontrollably, felt on occasion that I was tripping and the taste was one of rarity. There is nothing out there now that matches it. I remember one joint getting 5-6 people completely baked. What I would give for just one hit off that mid-seventies joint just one more time!
Grabbed some Columbian Gold Rosin by Avitas and this stuff is a great Sativa, stuff has me real focused and uplifted right now with my anxiety fading away....yea this definitely deserves 5 stars. Pain level around a 2, Spasms down to a 1, has me really happy, I love it and highly recommended it to all.
Taste like lemon pine skunk. Good energy booster keeps you going with no anxiety like most Sativas. The old school strains are the best.
Had to grow this classic old school strain that we all smoked and smoked and smoked way back in the day. I grew 2 phenotypes one was shorter with wide fan leaves and the other tall and lanky. They started having problems with pm so they were harvested at 8 weeks. The bud was literally gold, a nice citrus fruity smell. A harsh hit, made me think yep, this is the junk, lol but it was a creeper, ended up totally baked and it is EXCELLENT for body pain, maybe the best from all of my strains. The downsides for me was the major munchies ( not cool at age 50 and up) and the problems in grow- otherwise this would be a staple on my menu.
I feel like a little monkey enjoying the colombian atmosphere. I get euphoric, happy and very relaxed... chilling out like a free molecule

I'm a heavy smoker, found this strain from a dispensary that I knew other strains they had were always very nice specimens. So I wanted to try it out.
i was born in '80 so I missed the classic era strains, such as this one, and don't know what to compare it to, or if its even close. I'm hoping I got a fairly true sample, maybe some who got the real deal back in the day could thumb up this if what i describe sounds right.
The buds were very compact, but still airy. Not very sappy but just covered with golden trichomes. When you break it down it looks very goldish brown.
Thr scent took me a minuite, several sniffs (like i needed an excuse to smell weed) Very very sweet arome. Not a hint of skunk, sour, or diesel notes; in fact about as opposite as you could get. I picked up like a jasmine blossom, or lemom lime, but not from actual fruit but like how the trees smell when they get their blossoms. Also like a very slight one hard to pinpoint... kinda like sandlewood or oak? I don't know, but this one smells sweeter that and lemon haze, tangie, or orange tree types. Very unique.
Now the good part. The high was almost instand in the head. Took about 6 hits on a raw cone (wick lit). 1st 4 were smooth, last two cough attack, but short lived. Very calming, relaxing high. Still very productive, lots of good thoughts and creativity. Stress melter, bad mood killer, and single dad saver.
