That’s an Aussie swag mate, designed by the original settler’s of Australia(swagman), no pitching tents just roll it out… no worries!

A swagman (also called a swaggie, sundowner or tussocker) was a transient labourer who travelled by foot from farm to farm carrying his belongings in a swag (bedroll). The term originated in Australia in the 19th century and was later used in New Zealand

The one in the picture is a bit more effort, this is what I used to use


Humans sold separately :joy:

Thanks for the info man. I have never heard that term here.

Swag is something totally different in the States.

Its funny though.

Schwag used to be brick weed. It was normally mids to lows, and was compressed into bricks. It normally came from Mexico.

Swag now has a different meaning. Most of the back weed gas dissapeared, and swag is normally marketing materials, like hats, shirts, cups, etc.

I started in about 1999, and I was only able to get brick mainly until the last 11 -12 years.

I think I got crap homegrown a couple times. In 2005/or so I got hooked up on good homegrown, for one harvest only.

The earliest dank I got was the first I grew, while I was getting advice on the first OG.

I never saw that one!!! :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

We were legends right? I was known as the great hook up. I kept my mouth shut on where it came from.

Funny thing is a local grower wanted some of my seeds, so he could grow good weed like me. I used schwag bag seeds. :laughing:

It was hard keeping your mouth closed at times right mate especially when close friends compliment the weed but I held strong too for a few years in Denmark, I would tell friends who came to my house that my spare room was locked and being rented as a storage space. It wasn’t until 2 close friends who were on their way over were met on my stairs with a bunch of cops and me being raided for a 200 plant SOG set up…

Side note: always clean your filters, faaark

They didn’t make it up, they got stopped on the stairs and were pretty confused but I had to fill them in soon enough when I needed a couch to sleep on after getting out of jail a couple days later to an eviction notice… good times.

Yeah thankfully it was a good 8 years ago now.

Man, that really sucks.

My story is getting arrested for half a joint the first time I was growing, in the early 2000’s. I didn’t get caught with any more than that, but growing ceased for many years. I’m glad to be back into it. There’s nothing like it, hobby wise.

@Tejas thanks buddy. It was brought to my attention that I could roll some nice cannagars with them. That may be the next thing.

Those plantslook horrible for three weeks. Almost look like they are drowning or starving. What are they in, how wet are they? :thinking:

Yeah mate it was a tough period, pretty humbling too going from earning tens of thousands a month to sleeping on a coach broke but it’s fair to say I took advantage of Europe’s open borders, kept moving and never looked back.

I think they’re starving. It’s weird. Seedlngs and clones either love or hate my seeding/ clone soil. It’s equal parts or peat moss, perlite, ewc, and compost.

I scraped the top layer of soil off that didn’t have feeder roots in it, and top dressed with super soil. I also added a later of mulch. They should perk up.

They seemed fairly damp. They really never took off. They’re s1’s, so that may have something to do with it.

I personally go 70% aeration 30% peat moss for my babies, then top dress lightly with EWC once it has a few inches of growth. I feel the gas exchange when watering is crucial when they are young. This mix helps prevent over watering

I’ve been pretty good at not overwatering. I’ll see how these look in a few days. They should perk up, if they are hungry.
