I mostly buy Bodhi at $60 a pack so yeah, the $100 I spent on the Swamp boy pack stung a little, but the $25 in shipping was the real kick in the dick. But man, just imagine the possibilities in that $125 pack

Yeah don’t get me wrong I’ve stretched and got some in excess of 200 bucks, recently I was saving up to try and get a pack of $500 roadkill skunk’s just couldn’t quite get there and then I started thinking oh my God I’m about to spend $500 on one pack of seeds. Backup, reevaluate! lol

We used to wait in line outside of TLC collective to grab Jungle Boys flowers and they were damn good. I figured I could f2 and cross these and offer them to the homies, if there's some dank in them. I am about to start a new breeding project with a 20 year old clone of "blackberry" and I'm building myself some male stock as well.. that's about all I have as far as justification on a 200 dollar pack. I also think in zips, so i just charge it back to the game..

I blew my saving on a cut of meat breath, a-dub, motorbreath 15, fire og, rudeboi og, gelato 33 and a grease monkey. It might look like I have gotten carried away but I was treated very well.
I quit selling many moons ago, would be nice to subsidize my fun again. Now I think in terms of not going to the dispensary. As someone who has spent most of my life connected to herb, most of it on the other side, it’s still hard for me to talk about things. This site has helped with the ptsd of it all, and it is a ptsd lol it took me almost 2 years lurking before I ever posted here. I’ll just say I’ve spent most of my life growing and selling, I made the decision to go legit with ambition of getting into the industry at some point.

I hear that. It seems like everyone and their brother is growing herb now-a-days. I would get charged well over 200 in the streets for some boof, so in my mind, if i can grow myself at least one zip from a 200 pack, I'm a happy camper. We smoke way too much around this house to be buying that, or 60 dollar 8ths at a store.
I'd love to get into the industry some day if it doesn't involve pesticides and all that nasty shit ...

I dont mind paying. Nobody selling these strains around me and honestly, unless I know the person well, I'm over smoking stranger weed. I havent had to buy for almost 3 years now and the last bud I bought I think it was from the dispensary. Hard pass on that. That bud seems so rushed to market. Soft, not dried completely and zero taste/smell.
Like a few of you in this thread, I quit party partying, growing and smoking herb is my biggest passion as far as that scene goes. It's also been crucial in keeping me on the path I need to be on, so paying up on a pack every now and then is not the end of the world. The excitement running something new to the catalog is payback enough.

LOL @ "stranger weed". My sister in the midwest sent me a picture of a package of "Gruntz" she got in the streets and asked why it was so harsh. LOL
Props for the move towards the garden, and I totally feel you on the aspect of it keeping you on the right path. There's no turning back for me now.

So I took a chance on a new friend who I thought might just be after my cut of VG. Up until now, it's the one cut I haven't passed along. Not that I wouldn't, just haven't seen any fit homes quite yet. New friend ended up rolling up with something that I'm even more interested in, and I'm happy I listened to my gut.
This is a nug of " Black Berry" and it smells better than anything I've ran yet. It is literally a strong berry smell that carries all the way through the smoke. I was told this particular nug wasn't even showed proper love and was ran on a pretty strong nutrient line. It's been hoarded in a basement for over 20 years and now it's come out to play. I'm building a list of potential strains to hunt for males, to cross on her and I'm already completely obsessed with this project.
We're trying to get all the best commodities for when she arrives, so she feels comfortable in her new home. It might be shocking being showed so much love at first.

What's your soil mix? Coots recipe? I see the bu blend, never tried it but I've heard its good stuff ( I've been using that Coast of Maine lobster compost for a few years, good stuff too, I now have my own lobster compost Im using) that KIS water only soil with the biochar looks interesting, have you used that before? I add hardwood lump charcoal to my compost pile, how big are those pieces of char in that soil? I'm afraid the pieces I've added to the pile are either too big or too small.
That blackberry bud looks like fire. I love orange haired nugs.

My preferred mix is when I build my own with the KIS nutrient kit, Lobster Compost, perlite and peat. This will be my first time playing with the bu blend, or any cow derived composts in my smoke garden for that matter. I really like the lobster compost, and will hopefully eat enough lobsters someday to be able to compost my own as well. Lol. This will also be my first time trying any of the KIS premixed soils. I will tear into some tonight and see how chunky the "bio-chars" are... The stuff smells very lovely though, like a quality super soil should.
Coots mix is awesome too, but I've only ever bought the mix and threw it into some FFOF or the like. I haven't given his full plan a go yet. I did notice my plants loved the fresh ground barley thing that he put me on to as well.
The black berry's smell is a million times better than that there nug looks

When I grew potatoes I felt the same way about the flowers
I crossed Jozikins Paki Punch with a killer cut of AK and got the froot loops smell and flavor! Called her Pakki - the main was huge!!!
Got a new pH pen in the mail today. I think it is going to make me a much better grower.
Cheers,
Mo

It does seem like everyone is growing weed these days....but...it easy to grow weed....its hard to grow top shelf dank. Usually the growing world regulates itself, lot of people with the intention of growing and selling quickly are weeded out once they realize the true investment one must make to grow some dank. I know some of those people- and they were like, what I have to buy a a/c just for the growroom! WTF - lol, Ya see ya later buddy..haha.
I justify buying and spending somewhat reasonable amounts of $$$ on beans like this> if I find an absolute fire keeper and make a momma, that is well worth the investment- that mom plant can make me some good dough in donations. So at that rate $500 is not even that much for a pack if your doing shit proper.
