Agreed; the words "blow me" would likely have been uttered at some point during the conversation.

I attempted to do the shopping Saturday, but I didn't get much accomplished. I went to the local Hydro store to purchase the pumps and stones, and return a faulty HPS bulb. The owner pretty much called me an idiot because I didn't know these particular bulbs had issues with digital ballasts. I reminded her that I wanted a different bulb, but she sold me on the crappy one. She said there was nothing she could do for me.... I put all the shit back and walked out. I only have one way of expressing my displeasure, and that's with my dollars. I'll never go back, and I've got a Worm's Way about 30 minutes from my house. With my poor outlook and the Christmas rush, I decided it would be better if I went home and got baked......
Anyways, not yet......
right on bro id da done the same thing

Res check. 1400 ppm / 2.8 eC @ 5.8pH. Added 2 gallons tap for 1350 ppm / 2.7 eC @ 5.9 pH. Stretch is complete, and I'm moving the light down a link at a time to get as close as possible without bleaching. Currently 13" above the tallest cola. Air temps are 79F - 67F with the rez set at 67F. Plants appear to be taking the higher ppm in stride.
5 of the 6 White Russians have popped their heads out of the soil 54 hours after opening the package.
I'm looking forward to seeing how these babies do.....

What sucks is that Worm's Way is probably easier to get to, cheaper, and their people seem more informed. The only reason I went to her place was because I believe in supporting small business.....right on bro id da done the same thing

I have done the same thing numerous time. Glad you like supporting small business, I do as well. Some small businesses are hit and miss, or mediocre enough to stick around for a while. When I feel something like this brewing I head down to my cell phone carriers store and try and change something on my account, then take the anger out on them. They are trained for it! I would have done the exact same thing. As long as don't bring yourself to a lower level, its all in the non verbal communication........

The plants are looking amazing bro. Harvest time just keep ticking closer and closer....
I can't wait to see those sugary buds start filling in.
Keep up the great work.

I think that there's at most a 3% difference between the top seeds at any bank.
97% of it is marketing hype, IMHO - all the new "strains" are descendants of the old landraces, so there's really "nothing new in this world".
Calling a NLxHaze cross "Sugary Ice Cream Pinkie Raspberry Knockout Russian 47" doesn't do anything for me, honestly.
Same thing with nutes, but that's a rant for a different day.
<End rant now>
P.S. - I buy my seeds from Nirvana as well.

You might be right about old genetics being in everything, but what about crosses and backcrosses of sick phenos?
You then have the stinky UK Cheese, Green Crack, Mass Super Skunk, all of these are from crazy phenos of old genetics that were whacked out.
Then you have stuff like Dairy Queen where it's C99 x Cheese, which old genetics cannot do by themselves, unless they propagated on their own. This still wouldn't make the crazy pheno strain predominant until it had been back crossed and stabilized over a period of time.

I have to disagree with you Bob. There is definitely a much bigger variance than 3 percent between the top seeds of different banks. Look at the Cup winning strains, and then look at some of these smaller banks. I don't think some banks can compare to others.

^ agreed much more than 3%.
