Oh no! :hushed: I was wanting this one worse than any of the others. I kept thinking I had it from someone else and then I found out it was another strain. I got that pollen from you and kept thinking about asking you for a few seeds to grow outside this summer. So sorry I hear that. I still have that LT pollen that should be fine. I’ll do my best to get it out. My broken leg slowed me down for a while. peace

No worries brother!

Geez, I read about your accident, really sorry that befell you and I hope you recover quickly.

There was a bit of a scramble but Doug and I scrounged up enough beans to cover the US and International lists. The only issue is, they will be in the spring box.

I just wanted you know the people that paid in for this had one of the “extras” included to help make up for US customs. :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

Oh, very cool. I’m so absent minded that I don’t get on OG that much and retain very little when I do. I think @G-paS told me that a while back. Heh.

I’m trying to harvest my outdoor grow on crutches and it’s taking it out of me. I have a huge one this year and it’s all maturing at the same time. I had 3 trees that started as volunteers and I never thought much about it. Then they all came out female and decided to grow like monsters, lol. Biggest buds I’ve grown in a while. First, I have another raised bed full of big plants. 3 Geneva’s Kush, 2 Lavender and a Monochrome Rain (@NugLifeFarms420). All are busting in flowers. Then there are the potted ones…… The weather is forecast to be warm again for a week. I may get lucky.

We have to get @GMan back on his feet.

Many people paid for them as they didn’t see not to. I wanted to make sure they got something. I can’t wait to get them for the fall. NO FED-EX :rofl:

Those mutes can be the hardiest sometimes. :laughing:

:seedling: :rofl:

@Gpaw you gonna start another grow thread? Inquiring minds want to know. :upside_down_face:

Oh yes, I haven’t said anything yet but I’m starting shortly (life has been busy).

I’ll probably hold off posting for a bit.

But for a teaser…

  • I’m starting with a long postponed tester for @PetalPowerseed
    This was supposed to have happened last year… :roll_eyes:
  • followed by sensi grows of OG Kush and Critical OG…

I have a metric ton of ideas to pursue but I just couldn’t bring myself to drop this spring’s projects… yet… :grin:

@Gpaw is an accomplished grower and writer. What he has done in this thread is uniquely valuable. I have already referred here many times to benefit from his large successes and small tribulations as this OG Classic event unfolded. I’m proud to call him a friend.

In an effort to make this fine thread into an even better resource, I asked @Gpaw if he would mind my adding a little value with an Annotated Table of Contents that would allow folks to locate particular subjects, or phases of the grow and seed collection process.

He agreed, so here’s first pass at links to some of the major events and topics. Many of the subjects begin at the post I’ve linked, but the conversation continues below.

Thanks Grouchy
That’s a lot of work you put in there! It certainly helps finding something specific.

I’ll bet I’ve gone through there half a dozen times, top to bottom looking for pollen preservation. :laughing:
