Many thanks to all envolved on this journey!
âInvolvedâ just helping out.
That list doesnât include me, a staff member from 1999 to 2005. Admin 2003 to 05.
Thank you. I know the list isnât completely their but it was a good chunk of the mods. Would you have gone by the same name @Smokinrav
How many members did o.g.1.0 have at its peak world wide?
Thank you for that !! Thatâs alot of people someone posted 200,000 once and I didnât think it was true.
I couldnt imagine that many now
Especially with many other cannabis discussion forums
I just find the world wide part the best .
I remember how happy we were to hit 100,000 members, but I canât remember if we hit 200k
Stupid LEO in Canada and the US, they did the one thing you shouldnât do to a service in huge demand, blow it up. We were all scared for awhile, who wouldnât be?
Fast forward 17 years later, and the dumbfucks in law enforcent now have many, many learn to grow websites (dozens?) with 100,000+ members all over the world.
Legalization is coming for the Congress, they will have to acknowledge this. Now if only an OG drug warrior wasnât the PresidentâŚ
I went to see it in 2004-06, what I donât remember is if it was registered, I imagine that it was because it was on icmag.com, 420magazine, cannabiscafe.net, lamarihuana.com and surely I also registeredâŚ
When do you release the information from the hard drives?
From 2009 to 2013 an overgrow was made in Spanish, I did it, here you can see screenshots of those years.
Itâs the story and it had to be said tooâŚ

People from cannabiscafe, lamarihuana, cannarias and more Spanish cannabis forums.
greetings!!!
Funny enough, I heard that Marla herself came up with the idea to use dry ice first, then she published the tek using ice water to make her competitors make an inferior product. The idea being that many terpenes are water soluble and will be washed away with the water. Whereas dry ice keeps these terps intact in the final hash product.
Ive seen a lot of information espionage over the years to get people to make an inferior product, so the real heads of the industry will always have product velocity
Ive heard that sense the early days of bubble bags , I have always been a fan of dry sift and old fashioned hash for the exact reason of loss of terps. Even some of the best full melt bubble lacks in comparison to some lightly pressed dry sift dug out of the bottom of a tote 
Very interesting comment (the only one this account ever made) in a thread @LemonadeJoe crosslinked to here, commenting on Subcoolâs story of RC and Heavenâs Stairway:
Man i just got back on the internet and nobody took my handle, thatâs awesome. There was some many people that help contribute to the forums everyday, there was this guy, âhempcatâ he lived in Amsterdam and had a green house one of the few place it was legal in the 90âs he shared so much content, sorry for commenting on a dead thread. Glad this site is back. I am way late to the party, been growing in the dark since they took marc emery down.
The group that came from weedbase⌠It was later to become known as the 77 ⌠After Aeric77âŚ
I was the 7th person to ever log on to overgrow.com âŚ
Too all of my fallen friendsâŚndn ⌠skooshâŚot1âŚVic highâŚnl420âŚNCGAâŚIMGC⌠I donât know where any of you guys are âŚ
You guys have to understand we had to go hide for yearsâŚ
How many members are there now here currently?
That would be a fun tally to run, we all had goofy windows 95 logos or Linux penguins, or linux red hat as our images, stuff that would be retro now days. I mean i was in my 20â and talking to guys in their 60âs id imagine a-lot of them have passed by now. Iâd hope they are still around though, it was scary to put what we had online. There where no vpns to other countries, and back then packet sniffing, tracking, tracing was fair game, no law or regulations⌠now there is so many forums, and even groups on meta its crazyâŚhappy growing
I used to post alot on there under the same username. I was most definitely a post whore. I wonder if anyone remembers me.
@scrogathon, welcome to OG.
