The Seed Collectors Thread

if only you knew this thread would hit 20k replies. LOL. I want to get into collecting seeds. Sounds like a fun hobby.. I used to collect my bag seeds and I would toss them in an old liquor bottle. I had a 5th of captain morgan almost completely filled with seeds! But that was just mainly just for looks and a conversation piece.. Gonna jump in on the seed collecting thing I think :)
Welcome to the collective :)

Id love to be able to grow these an make s1!
I swear to god weed in the old days was better...
after looking at all those pics of 70's herb, my thoughts were "damn its was ALL shwag".

who said that shit was any good? dont look it that's for sure.

i mean bag appeal = zero , trich coverage = zero , fluff factor = way up

my opinion : today : weed is bomb diggity better !

you see those nugz jenks & hazey be putting up right?
straight calyx smoking fire bro.

It is thought by others and myself taking in the whole idea that Cannabis in nearly every part of the world is in danger. Man's law makes this plant a hunted plant. It is yanked out of the ground where it is found and forced to extinction in the wild by man. The evolution of the Cannabis plant could have changed over the years due to the plant knowing this. The plant could evolve to make itself more desirable by providing a high drug trait, and terpenes that create the smells and tastes that we are all so fond of. If Cannabis was allowed to flourish and live in the wild everywhere there would be no headband or sour diesel growing in large fields, there would be hemp. One plant would pollinate another, and another, and eventually the plain ol Hemp plant with Zero drug trait would be the end product after the muddy gene pool. So your Girl Scout Cookies, your Double Purple Doja, your Space Queen. and Grape Stomper plants are actually safer in this illegal society. With close to Zero pollen floating in the air we can have our evolved keepers. With time and the law keeping our favorite strains illegal I predict the Cannabis of today will just keep getting better and better and better. I see this already happening in the past 5 years. The seed market now is thriving and nothing like what it was before. All thanks to Uncle Sam. Bet he wasn't thinking this would happen. 20-25% and higher values of THC on plants that smell like fruit and candy.. Hahhaaa. Fuck them.

This is just a theory but a good one IMO.

Danger of Inbreeding-
"Should inbred Cannabis be attacked by some previously unknown pest or disease, this genetic uniformity could prove disastrous due to potentially resistant diverse genotypes having been dropped from the population. If this genetic complement of resistance cannot be reclaimed from primitive parental material, resistance cannot be introduced into the ravaged population. There may also be currently unrecognized favorable traits which could be irretrievably dropped from the Cannabis gene pool. Human intervention can create new phenotypes by selecting and recombining existing genetic variety, but only nature can create variety in the gene pool itself, through the slow process of random mutation."-Robert Connell Clarke

It is also worth mentioning that Inbreeding is a useful tool used to restore Vigor to an established line. But natural inbreeding in the wild can prove to be disastrous.

& to all those old stoner dudes out ther complaining that their weed was better and saying the drugs back then were so much better... I don't buy it. I think their tolerance used to be lower and they thought they were higher due to the fact that once one gets used to anything.. the high is never as good as it once was. I remember being a new smoker and the first itme I got really really baked. It was almost like a trip. I don't buy what those old dudes are saying and nothing else can convince me otherwise. My father who actually went to Woodstock.. agrees with me. & he loves his SpaceDawg.


& unrelated..

Its true...

Its Survival Of The Fittest.... CANNABIS!!!!!!!!!

I wonder if the Cannabinoid %tages will ever Plateau or will they just keep on rising higher and higher as time progresses...

One things for sure, in 20-30yrs kids are gonna be smoking some Crazy buds....

there only so much trich coverage possible, per square mm let's say, on the surface of any given nug (or if your hazey grapes leaf).

be interesting to see if trichs themselves evolve or become extremely different with regard to thc %s.

still, with how fast weed reproduces, generations of change are easy to see in the product we consume today.

& more funny, in comparison to that 70's crap, imma say : there are finite limits to the evolution of anything (living or) weed related.

dr. spock's opinion of couse.

im fairly certain the evolution we seen in the cannabis gene pool already ==> is ALL due to indoor cultivation.

amazing to see something changing so rapidly due to the extreme influence of man's hand.
dummies those who say evolution isnt a real thing.

me, i love my HID lamps & all these choices !

yes. same here.
im wondering the same thing you are.

maybe...
they're tooling the site while being tools themselves.
you know always something at RIU : hacks , shity page loads, lost data, & more.

RIU penguin : probably took a smoke break & then ducked off to beat some meat.
