That's funny. I like both of their stores. I feel like bas has more stuff, but sometimes that's not always a good thing. I'm also lazy and cheap so keeping it simple makes me a happy camper. I am with you on the wanting to do a worm bin. This is something I need to do as well. Hopefully I can keep that simple too.That's another one I forgot about. Jeremy and Tad don't seem to like each other, lol.
Been buying from them, I talked to the owner first year I purchased for a few questions and he was very impressive on his recipe of what he feed the worms to quality control. they feed their worms from local within 10 mile source . Family owned and prices including shipping are 1lb per 1 buck preety much and they even sell it on amazonI basically use their recipie (sans neem and karanga) when building my own. Need to order worm castings and they carry Colorado Worm Company 🪱 by far the best I've seen but $100 for 40lbs, this go I'm starting my own bin with them. Sorry UPS, I'll try to meet you at the truck.
You haven't seen footage of the the South getting a Snow Storm I take it?Still, the most frosty mess I will see today.
Edison wasn't so much a great inventor, more like a black market cannabis grower. He found more than he invented imo. Capitalism doesn't flinch and often people are dropped in situations where something lands in their lap and history becomes clouded.You haven't seen footage of the the South getting a Snow Storm I take it?
I may not be thinking about this quite right, so, correct me if I'm wrong, but GG4, from what I understand, was grown from bagseed, which, I've been hearing for some time, that bagseed will possibly create hermie traits in a plant. So, is this the genetics ? I know there's no shortage of mystery bagseed "elite cuts" going around.
Edison was nuts. I grew up near his boyhood home. Tesla was the mad genius, where Edison seemed to be the "I've got a well funded team, in a well funded lab because I met JP Morgan so everything that comes out of here is going to have my name on it". He didn't invent a light bulb either; he found a better way to make one in a manner that allowed sales to happen is all. I'm well aware of the history there.Edison wasn't so much a great inventor, more like a black market cannabis grower. He found more than he invented imo.

Never met Josey not meaning to shit talk about the dead either but quite frankly, not gonna put him on a pedistal. Cannabis history is full of half-truths.
Bagseed is too broad a term. Hermie prone, stressed to seed, rhodendalization (sp?), intentionally reversed, stray pollen... a little snowstorm in Georgia is nothing compared to this.
Josey ?
The Origins of GG4 - RIP Joesy Whales
Upon the sad news of Joesy Whales' death recently, we've decided to pay homage to the man and his greatest creation, GG4 in this article where we examine the origins of this modern megalith of the cannabis world.www.alchimiaweb.com
GlueChee (Cheese x GG4)
Indeed, after Joesy Whales underwent open-heart surgery, GG4 was the only variety that could calm the anxiety he was suffering and to cope, he would eat a chunk of GG4 hash which gave him relief from anxiety for as long as a week!
Man he does have some taste huh? Chems and Diesels everywhere!!!Greyskull and Zoolander, who offered some of their elite clones to Grizz. As a result, the three of them met up in a parking lot in Barstow, California to hand over the plants, which were a cut of Sour Dubb (Sour Diesel x Sour Bubble), and what they thought at the time was a clone of Chem D (but was actually mislabelled and turned out to be Chem's Sister). At some point around the same period, Joesy also acquired a clone of Chocolate Diesel (Sour Diesel x Chocolate Trip) from another source. These three plants became the backbone of his indoor growing operation.
See, this is the part where I get confused at times, because I've heard since day one, that breeding with a hermie plant, will make that plant pass the trait on to others. Now, I don't know for sure how that part works out every time, as I simply haven't gotten the experience yet. Don't get me wrong, there's a few strains that, if I had bagseed of them, I wouldn't care. Chemdog is the same way anyway if the 13 seeds are legit hermies. Chem D is one of my all time favorites.However, the stress of moving house twice in the course of just a few days led the Chem's Sis x Sour Dubb plants to "hermie", i.e. it displayed intersex traits and produced male flowers, pollinating the entire room in the process. Joesy wasn't at all happy and ended up giving most of the weed away, but, luckily, his friend Marlin aka Mardogg kept some of the resulting seeds, just in case.
GG2 was given to a Michigan grower to look after but was unfortunately lost at some point, so very little is known about it now.
It's intermittent?confused at times
It can't be bred out, at least not via traditional methods over the last 20,000 years or so.bagseed is really a trait that can be passed on
Probably based on if I smoked Sin City Juice before typing LOLIt's intermittent?
I read into this a bit, and though I'm not positive of it, from what I could find at least, bag seed CAN do a hermie trait, because of how it began (somehow being stressed out enough that the plant, in a last ditch effort to keep it's genetics alive, creates the nanners so that the progeny will go on to live another day) but once you get to this point, I can't find any info on if the plant eventually isn't stressed out over multiple generations. It seems like if enough generations were ran, and they weren't stressed out, that it may eventually stop that trait coming through? This is the part I can't seem to ever find info on. I think one of the things that always makes me go "wait what?" is that there's....Basically no one who would breed bagseed out into something without looking to see if hermies formed, and yet at the same time, there's a bunch of stuff that began exactly that way. GG is only one of them, and I have heard once that actual cuts from the plant, are useful still, as they may not pass that on. I may not be wording this the best way, but this is one of those topics that, what I'm thinking in my brain isn't in words so much as questions in images, so it's hard to say it right. I think the only example I know of, is Chem DMT; Chemdog is known to have come from bagseed, but the exact cut is still used for breeding without any issues so far. And Chem DMT, is actually partially from bagseed that apparently came from the dude Chemdog, and, at least according to the "brochure", Chem DMT was tested to see if any hermie traits came from it, and none did (according to said shiny brochure) so, I guess my misunderstanding comes from being able to use bag seed VS it always passing on that trait ?It can't be bred out, at least not via traditional methods over the last 20,000 years or so.
Great questions. I don't have the answers.Probably based on if I smoked Sin City Juice before typing LOL

Fwiw I've had gg4 for years and no issues, stable as a table . Have hit her w male and fem pollen several times and no issues. I think she doesn't like being reversed. JmhoGreat questions. I don't have the answers.
Before human intervention this plant was monocious (bagseed was the only option), now it is diocious. Check my spelling.
Flowering is a stress response, the plants response to shortening days (photos) or predetermined (auto) or determinant/indeterminant. I believe the environment the seed is produced in matters. If a female plant is stressed to produce pollen and seed and the overall stress level of the plant is not reduced, this is bad for seed production not in yield of viable seed but in what those seed will tend towards.
Perinial vs annual - aka reveg. Regions where this plant evolved most likely had the environment favorable for the plant to be annual when humans first came into the picture. So, maybe this is a way to reduce the herm potential?
Do you think that her not wanting to be reversed, is from the recessive traits it can bring out? This has been stumping me a bit as I learn more about how breeding works.Fwiw I've had gg4 for years and no issues, stable as a table . Have hit her w male and fem pollen several times and no issues.

Well, pretty sure I am 3/3 males so I'll have to break back into the pack to find out. First time for that I think, usually with three teens one ends up female 🤷♂️ . Not sure if I've ever done a chuck without at least sampling the strain either?Mango Tango x Oilspill is absolutely amazing smoke , shes awesome outside too👌
Well I've never sampled the Sugar Factory yet, but am keeping the one male and making F2's with all the girls. Whats supposed to come of them terpwise and the fact I doubt I can aquire any more, so thats the plan I'm running with. lolWell, pretty sure I am 3/3 males so I'll have to break back into the pack to find out.

Pretty sure I'm wrong all the way round here. Just this summer I chucked Pirate's purple plant at gw x cnc. Besides that one of the MTOS I put in flower is looking female now.Well I've never sampled the Sugar Factory yet, but am keeping the one male and making F2's with all the girls.

Yeah, will be interisting, wife said it smelled like ginger in veg. By the look we are just past halfway at 8 weeks.That lao sa is looking a treat. Stoked
