Sorry, I don’t mean to hijack this thread in any way but I’ve been reading it for a while and joined the site to chime in. As a novice, Ive been learning from working with friend’s cuts and random beans. I just recently stumbled upon Meat Breath though and had to know where this amazing plant originated, which obviously led me to Gromer/Thug Pug. Pug hasn’t exactly blown up in the Southwest, or maybe I’ve been living under a rock, but then all of a sudden a week or two after my discovery he announced his retirement. I along with many others went nuts trying to procure his gear.
My questions for this lovely group are...
Is his gear worth the hype?
As a novice, should I wait until my skills are refined until I try popping his beans or are they stable and fairly easy to grow?
Also, has anyone ever purchased from capital city seed bank? They have a bunch of his gear still, whereas everyone else is sold out. However, they are in the old clam shell packs, which makes me think they are possibly quite old. To my understanding, he switched to the orange packs a while ago.
