Congo trip with Kidete

You’re in.
@SaintAliasKnife you as well. Pm me if still game and I’ll give you Mike’s info.
@Tejas did I send you the info?
My apologies to everyone for my slacking. I just have too much going on at the moment to keep well organized with this. The squeaky wheel gets the grease at this point.

I sent my portion to him yesterday in case you haven’t seen my DM yet @Upstate

I also added a few dollars for any fees or anything like that just in case, and I’m so grateful to be a part of this!!

Super worthy endeavor. Wish I could go in, but circumstances aren’t right for me at the moment to throw out any cash. Hoping for a fruitful end result for all involved though!

I don’t know about the rest of you, but I am already visualizing beautiful narrow leaf Congo plant photos from @Kidete when he is able to send them and assuming he is able to get photos without freaking out any tribals…
New Congo genetics…:yum::drooling_face::drooling_face::drooling_face::drooling_face::drooling_face::drooling_face::drooling_face::drooling_face::drooling_face:
Thanks @Cbizzle and @Magu. Hopefully hopefully enough seeds are found so that everybody gets a chance to grow these genetics if they wish

Not exactly sure what to expect. It would be great to be involved during the whole journey, but I don’t expect service is very good in the jungle lol… He will probably just disappear for a couple of weeks and then reappear and let us know how he made out. Hard to say… I’m sure there’s wifi in the larger towns. This is going to be fun for sure. Of course, the bulk of the fun will happen after he gets back when we get to take a look at these first hand

Hell, they may even encounter human populations previously unknown to science. Those explorers will likely encounter at least one new species of plant, animal or insect. Of course the varieties of cannabis will be dizzying.

I’ve already finished a joint and am trying to find where I parked my truck :laughing:

Safe travels @Kidete and thanks for allowing us to tag along.

That’s classic lol. Right on!
If anyone has interest, and I believe someone just enquired, @Jimdoors is looking for a partner. Pm him if interested.
We lack just 4-600 at this point. 2 or 3 people. I think I’ve given the payment info to everyone that expressed early interest. I’ll give it another day to see if any more of them pop up and then Priority goes to anyone that already asked and was told I wasn’t sure there was room…
Here’s a South Congo from East Africa Genes to wet your appetite

I’ve given a couple extra days for anyone I got in touch with earlier to make payment, So now I feel okay asking for a couple more people if there is still interest. I think three more people will do it.
First a couple days will be spent in Kinshasa collecting from local dealers. Next, a trip downriver towards the mouth, to Boma, just North of Angola, to visit local growers for several days, and then upstream to Bandundu, Democratic Republic of Congo to visit local growers there. Man I wish they could stuff me in a suitcase and bring me along!

That sounds like an amazing journey.

What an experience, I can’t wait to see all these genetics floating around overgrow once he is ready of course!

Sounds like a dream come true to go to an exotic land to collect land races, and come home and work with them, and share them all over OG!
