there is no such thing as homegrown swagg!!! brick weed was at one point very potent pot, looking much like all the beautiful pics you see in magazines, they made it swag when the shucked it from the stem with there hands, they just grab the stem and pull it through their fist, pulling off all the bud as fast as they can, then they squeez it into big bricks, often while still wet, causing it to ferment a bit before the bricks fully dry, turning the buds brown, i have even read they pee on the bricks in some places because the urea in your urine turns to ammonia, killing mold. they usually don't spend much time trimming the leaves. they leave the buds and bricks to dry in the sun, because it's much faster and keeps it from rotting when dried outside. the suns rays deteriorate the thc very quickly and often the bricks end up being stored in 100+ degree warehouses for months, sometimes even years, before it's sold. when you are growing millions of plants you aren't really concerned with making sure you kill every single male, many get past the culling, causing sporadic seeds throughout, and they don't have the time, space, or motivation to take care of the beautiful buds they start with. for them it's just get as much processed as fast as they can and get it sold as quickly as possible. you might liken it to a mcdonalds burger compared to a homemade one, the commercial producer really doesn't care about making a primo product, just to make and sell as much as possible for as cheaply as possible. when you grow your own you treat it like that big juicy half pound burger you tenderly cook on the grill. you will LOVE it!
