Is all regular weed the same strain?

No. Not yet.

Odd quesion. A seemingly ignorant one that you will be riduled for. It makes a guy wonder what made youbask it.

But.... it happens that with all the crossbreeding that is going on these days it seems like it wont be long until all the strains are homegendized into one bastardized one..

So maybe your question isnt that ignorant after all....

that is a good point. and very true among "dro" i come across

where i am, regular weed/reggie/shwag/brick etc are interchangeable.

usually they are almost or completely pure sativas from avg farmers in mexico and northern south america. still allowing you to source the classics

Weed it too prone to mutation to ever truly homogenize, IMHO. That's why it has been so successful at surviving in so many different climates around the globe. Even if the same strain spread everywhere, eventually (Or rapidly) those differences in climate would lead to localized versions with drastically different characteristics, as different genes are responsible for allowing a plant to survive in climates as disparate as Hawaii and Siberia. Just my $0.02.

yup. I see the same thing. I have a friend that has a "hoarded" hawaiian sativa outdoor for decades (no such thing as hawaiian landrace) it's F2 pheno's was fucking wide as hell with F1 being rare.

Why is it called Reggie lol? If I grow a plant from a Reggie seed would it grow to be Reggie or something nice and strong?

I've grown bagseeds a few times and have found gems, its luck really when it comes to growing random seeds

You never really know. All non-chemically treated seed will have the potential to be genetically shifted. If you know that strain A has a naturally higher THC amount then strain B then your odds of getting stronger weed is better with strain A. Its just potential odds. You go by strain potential. You can grow out 10 reggie femalea and have a couple that will put you down when smoked.

Honestly.. I've gotten clones from licensed shops before and they put out nice buds.. well most of them. Im currently having better results with seeds that I got from a client's material that i processed. Not every seed is a winner though. You gotta sift through the bad ones then eventually find the pheno you want and mother it for future clones. At least thats what I do. I dont come across to much "reggie" tho so I dont know how helpful this info is to you.

I think all weed has the potential to be very good weed if it's grown, handled and cured properly. The commercial weed isn't as good as the stuff we grow or the stuff in the dispensaries mainly because a lot of times it has seeds, and it's not handled with the TLC that we give it. Give me any bagseed and I believe it can be grown into a good quality weed - better than the commercial weed that the seed came from.

Give you any bag seed and you will grow it better then the other bag the seed came from? Lol
