Sorry to hear your experience at Green Grass was not as you would have hoped.
Unfortunately for us, it is almost impossible to properly educate each retail employee at our vendors about all of our gear. High employee turnover in some of these spots doesn't help either.
If you head back in to GG, give them a call first and ask when Preston is working. He is one of the owners and also runs their grow...he will be your best source for info on genetics if you are looking for that.
As for the Aspen OG...I would guess that the product got cured a little too early and that's why you're getting the "garbage" scent. The stuff does stink to high heaven...but it shouldn't have an overlaying smell of trash.
I did forward on your complaints to the GG ownership...I believe that the employee you spoke with will be going through some genetics training this week.
Thanks again for your support of our gear, I look forward to seeing some of your grows.

PS, we're putting an email together for you about your strain questions...look for that today or tomorrow.
