It’s not the masses lmao it’s the Label Companies. Okay a certain demographic ◽️ do hold a certain control due to what they think is popular but i’m not about to get into that on here. Record labels push artist on streaming platforms and youtube and put enough guns or jewelry in a video and you’re viral and can have a deal quick. It’s hard to appreciate someone you don’t know exist.

I remember being in middle school and people were turning their noses at any mention of Rap and how much certain folks parents absolutely hated it and wouldn’t let them play it. It’s was all Pop, Alternative, Heavy Metal, and old shit. Now those some parents are rapping Lil Baby, Lil Durk, and Roddy Rich. It’s weird.
Haha agreed, parents my age can be really fucking strange.

Yeah and that's the wild thing about drill. You can watch a music video from a few years back and every single person in the video is either dead or in jail. 100% of them in some cases.

Man, ain't nothing change! My first hustle was bootlegging Coolio, Biggie and Butthole Surfers CDs for all the WASPy kids whose parents wouldn't let them have them back in 6th grade lol. Even had a label maker so I could put fake labels on them. Made a lot of Ready To Die CDs look like New Kids on The Block.

Parents just don't understand.

Speaking of which, I had never heard of drill before today. My kid's just into Mac Miller and Billie Eilesh lol.

OH man, the era of Napster, Kazaa, and burning cd's. If you could burn CD's you could talk to any girl you wanted to. I remember when the family upgraded the computer to something that had that capability, this was probably in 01' or 02? Man, I thought I was king shit back then. We also learned this trick where you could use a pen to engage the part of a CD player that held the lid down, so it would play with the lid up. Then you could use sharpies and draw colorful "spin art" on the discs. I like to credit the whole "make your own CD" thing as my intro to DIY and how it became such a big part of my life. Always gotta make shit.

@AlienAthena did you ever have a CD walkman?

Thats wild, We cant be more than 8 or so years apart age wise but grew up with totally different "everyday" technology. hahahaha cargo pants were more acceptable back then so i'd load up my cargo pockets with like, 3 jewel cases each, with 3 cd's in each one, and a big hoodie so I could put my cd player in the pocket without it poking out too much. run the headphones up a sleeve and listen in class by "leaning" on your hand. UNtil i just wore them and they learned it was less trouble for everybody if they just left me the fuck alone.

Wild that this was the pinnacle of technology for me like 18 years ago. I'd go crazy if I couldnt listen to a couple CD's. OK AA its a new day, i will stop turning your thread into Millennial nostalgia Hour.

Yeah, we'll now turn it over to 'rok for Generation X Nostalgia Hour. :rolleyes:

I recall the original cassette Walkman and what a game changer that was. Until then your options for music were house stereo, car stereo, or a boom box that weighed 300 pounds and took $2000 worth of batteries (that were drained after a couple hours).

Having a "personal stereo" was absolutely amazing. I could never afford an actual Walkman, but had numerous cheap knock-offs. Being able to not only hear my music clearly, anywhere, and also to be able to shut out the world, was awesome.

I thought we'd reached the pinnacle of tech, but no, the worlds greatest scientists took it even further with the invention of auto-reverse. :carlton:

That was the peak, and since then mankind has begun our slow descent back into the muck. ;)

3 T.Kushx Midsicles up, 1 Momojo x Midsicle up 2 more recently placed in solos, 2 PIAB up 2 more placed in solos, and 2 Divine Swine are up. All testers germinated perfectly fine I just took too long placing some in soil.
P6102828.JPG

Twin City Titties, Truffle Pig, and American Pie in that order. All started and popped up on the same day, all feminized.

Thirsty Mystery clone, usually would toss but the stem rub smells like the taste of Lemonheads.. I think its Dyno Berry Bites but could be wrong
P6102831.JPG

Purple Flavinoid and White Hot Screamsicle clone (thats headed to the trash)
P6102834.JPG

Purple Flavinoid clone. something about it is appealing to me. Took 3 clones from the seed plant gave one away , the other looked rough but this one is just perfect.
P6102835.JPG

Iced Mosa #1 still waiting on 100% confirmation of sex but leaning towards woman right now. Loving the structure, still debating on topping it
P6102836.JPG


I chopped the top of a Male Slurricane x Sour Grapes clone and stuck it in a solo, now I just need to take time to get it to drop some pollen

Had to chop the GG#4 x Ecto Cooler due to balls, was expecting it especially with the way it was underwatered and hot af. Lost the monkey juice clone to underwatering and it was at the end of flower lol. smh

Turned the HPS down to 400 plus the two 240s so im down to approx 880watts during the summer. Not ideal but better than the crispy situation I saw. Hopefully things will start looking better.

Okay i’m not exaggerating when I say the smell reminds me of the mango peach sherbet i had a while ago. Good to smoke while watching something or late evening but not necessarily a knock out strain, at least not this pheno. I can’t rememberhow far you are in flower but 1 of mine hermied baaadd so may want to look out if still early. It’s one i’ll grow again

Yesterday I dumped most of my seeds out trying to see what I wanted to pop now vs later and ended up increasing my pop now drawer to like 50 strains ??‍♀️ So going to be changing things, she says hopefully, and i’ll be flowering things out small unless it’s a clone and no more cloning strains that I have 5+ seeds of… unless it’s really special in some way before sending to flower.

I say all that to say I’ve started some new seeds

  • 2 Gelato 45 x Skunky Brewsters from @Schwaggy P
  • 2 GSC x Long Bottom Leaf from Bad Dawg
  • 2 Slurriskunk (Slurricane/Iraqi x Michigan Skunk) from Strayfox Genetics
  • 2 God-O-War (Ghost Train Haze x 9lb Hammer) from @Phylex

I saw you use some of these strains for stomach issues, and the Wife actually has the same issues and generally uses Skywalker for a lot of them. Have you ever grown that one before ? This year we had to sort of pick and choose what we were going to pop, as I'm not used to having more strains than we can legally have (We're both medical card holders too) and so we generally try to make sure the ones that give us the best medical use get popped, and go from there exploring what other strains might help with. The Skywalker I have (It's just bag seed, nothing I ordered or properly got LOL) but it's leaning REALLY heavy on the Blueberry side, and smells like Blueberry Jam which is, actually pretty nice, though normally I'm not into super fruity stuff, but that does seem to help with the Wife's IBS symptoms. Course if I'm the one on her nerves we go for Blue Cheese cause that cures the Irritating Bastard Shit LOL. Are there any particular strains that help with your stomach though ? I'm always open to find something that might help the Wife with her stomach as we are almost out of Skywalker. Gelato #33 did seem to help too :)

@Dino Party

Hey bro you ever heard of pouring Beer on the CD to make music ? Apparently some years back, and I'm guessing this was one of those accidental finds, discovered that if you poured Beer on the CD, it would eventually make a mold that covered some of the notches that make up the Binary language used on CDs to be read by a processor, and it would totally distort and warp the music on the CD so when you played it back it was nothing like the original. Not sure how well that works, and they may have just used it for sampling, as I've used a Hex Editor to open an MP3 and change around a bunch of the data in it, and save it, but mainly all I got was weird as noises like *BLOOP* *SCREECH* and so on. Technically you could write a song out in a Hex editor though and save it as a media file and play it, though.... I can't say I'd recommend this haha.
