Chat room (let's chat!) šŸ’¬ (Part 1)

Sorry, missed the question, Iā€™m midatlantic US.

Ahhh darn fair enough

I bought a bunch of the 45 degree and was very disappointed when at the 6 week mark everything was growing like normal again

Any fellow growers in Canada willing to 3d print??

Thanks! This will be my first time training so really interested in this kind of knowledge.

Down there where you are, it might be needed. I lived in the bayous off and on many times. I almost always had to burp em when I had a harvest there. Youā€™re in a definitely ā€˜high humidityā€™ area! lol

Donā€™t really wanna buy Amazon crap rather support a fellow grower

Exactly!! This is why I got all this nonsense. I walk outside and Iā€™mā€¦ wellā€¦ sticky as trimming.

I would much rather support an individual. But I only found you guys aboutā€¦ 3 days ago.

Can even do kitchy, fun things like strain tags for your pots. And just fun stuff.

Also this is one hell of a heavy duty one.

Super croper

I want to print some as well. My 3d printer has some issues at the moment that I am trying to figure out.

Nice, squirrel, rabbit, porcupine and such were all staples in North American for the longest time.

Iā€™m glad you can tolerate this level of drama, but the terminally ill medical cannabis patients that used to post here could not. They have left the site to focus on healing and staying positive.

I think the cultural shift that really has people concerned is that people are trading seeds as a social activity and often expect to receive them as a default function of the site or community. It seems like members giving / receiving seeds has become a social expectation, and people donā€™t seem to care what they are receiving or what they are sending out into the gene pool.

Giving and receiving seeds was a community service or a charity. It was not socialization. the goal was to help people, not to shoot the shit. We exchanged seeds and made detailed grow logs to help each other with our research, and tested new lines to help medical patients.

I get that its fun trading seeds like baseball cards. But does this add informational content to the community?

If the goal is to help medical cannabis patients, they will need something specific to their medical needs that will not cause unwanted side effects. Seriously ill patients need quality genetics so they donā€™t waste precious time. They donā€™t need ā€œany random cannabis seed,ā€ they need medicine that will help them. Anything less would be a disservice to the community.

Iā€™m not saying there arenā€™t good genetics being exchanged, Iā€™m saying, how would you even know?

So many seeds are being sent around so fast, often getting re-traded through multiple hands like a game of telephone. Iā€™m not seeing grow reports. If there was a great medicinal line being traded, how long would it take before those plants actually saw the light of day?

People are taking in hundreds of seeds a week. Why?

People come to the table with a new hybrid. Where is the documentation of that grow? Where is your documentation on the genetics they used? where did they get the genetics? At one point, all of this information and documentation would have been offered by the grower/ breeder as show of good faith, honesty, and propriety.

Often when I raise these concerns, the response is something like
ā€œit doesnā€™t matter because humans are insignificant in the scope of historyā€
ā€œit doesnā€™t matter because we will all die some dayā€
ā€œlike who care man? weā€™re having funā€

I think this attitude is a luxury unique the healthy and the young. If you spend every moment of every day staring into the jaws of a terminal illness, you will know for certain that, yes, everything matters. We can make peopleā€™s lives better by caring. We can leave a lasting intellectual impact or material contribution to society that will last beyond our deaths.

This blasƩ attitude towards the community and the people who depend on cannabis for their health and their survival is very disheartening to me and to other medical patients.
