Didn’t you have Slick Rick as your avatar? I definitely remember the name or it could’ve been ICMAG. Either way welcome back, it’s the same but not…

I thought Shabang and foolgirl moved Weed Base ? from the News Groups, to an online message board format.
RC ponied up money from his Heavens Stairway seed site.
When Lemonade Joe, resuscitated it, he probably had to slay 70,000+ sock puppet accounts, and it’s now, open, to seed give away’s, and for a fee, bean selling.
We could seek out seeds, back then, but only in PM’s.
I was sad to see the Shark Tank, go away, but it was excellent move.
It is a totally different time now, on line now, then 25 years ago.
But I could be wrong.
Just my $.02

I do miss the shark tank also, but I don’t think I would enjoy it as much now as I am 25 years older. But at that time it was awild and crazy fun place.

hey guys, i was a member over 20 years ago, i was devastated when the community was taken down and never thought it would return. great to see you have breathed life into the community again. the community back then was epic, lots of real expert advice from great folk like cecil, the captain, and many others.

I can’t believe it took me this long to realize Overgrow was back. I was a young lad on the original site from 03ish until the bust.
I was just a loner high school student who didn’t know where to find good weed so thought maybe I could learn how to grow my own. It took 20 years for that to finally happen (a lot easier when you own your own home as an adult) but I finally got there.
I’ve come a long way from trying to figure out if there was a way to build some sort of grow box in my bedroom closet and how I was going to deal with the heat from the lights (I remember this being a huge issue in my teenage mind, one of about a dozen when I look back on it, lol) glad to be here and finally able to actually contribute with my own grows!

Just curious why certain members says “oldschool member” and others not, maybe I’m missing something. I got the old school member badge but doesn’t show like that below my name/handle on thread replies.
No biggy really, just curious
Am I being thick?

I was a moderator at the original OG. I’ve been smiling seeing some of the old handles in this thread. High again, guys.

@Hashy man, those are some names I haven’t heard or thought about in a long time. And yep, I still remember going to check out the site one day and BAM! it was gone. Crazy how different the times were back then with regards to Cannabis.
To get the member tag go to your preferences under your profile and select it under “title”
