Schwilly's Seaside Shanty

Just sit right back and you’ll hear a tale
a tale of a fateful trip,
that started from this tropic port,
aboard this tiny ship…

What a trip it’s been! Wanted to start a new thread to document my current journey and thought what better place then where It all started, we’ll kind of.

Let me introduce myself, names Schwilly aka billycw. Like many growers before the advent of the internet, my first contact with another grower was only through stuffing cash into a envelope with only a vague hope of seeds in return. Ahh but when that mysterious envelope arrived , magic.

Then like a bug to the light I ended up lurking bcga’s board for vic’s breadcrumbs. I was hooked, by the time overgrow came around I was in! Eventually I ended up spending more time over at cw stalking cbay. Been through a couple lifetimes since those sites went down…

About the same time og and cw went down, I was raided. Took my hit hard, when I finally bailed out, og/cw was gone. Eventually I ended up over at icmag under my new handle billycw. Sat in jail as my state legalized medical use.

Fast forward life cycles back, after returning to growing i was again visited by a deu squad at my grow… Watched my surveillance camera’s as vested officer’s blocked my street and pounded on my door… Obviously without a warrant, they snooped around the property had a little meeting and we’re out.

If you learn 1 thing from me it should be DON’T ANSWER YOUR DOOR for law enforcement! If they have a warrant they wouldn’t be knocking!

The next 72 hours were like a movie, tearing down a giant bonfire erupted from my backyard. Lost some amazing genetics that day but kept my freedom.

I’d had enough with my home state so I was out, there is a time for us to wander.

Life blurred and i landed in a remote property that has had a clandestine grow every year since '78, life is right again.

Starting over i thought i would take you all along for the ride.

Welcome to my little seaside shanty, grab your floaties or watch from the shore, I’ll leave the light on

Last year’s outdoor, neighbor called it grape valley kush

Great prices. Are they clean?

@Bayarealivingsoil Can only speak to when I was there and what I grabbed. Spot looked clean and smelled like a fresh whip down. Plants all looked healthy and close to if not all teens in size. Everything i grabbed scoped clean and didn’t pull any bugs on the potato test.

i have no personal history with it but i asked chat gpt
The Blueberry (old OMMP cut) from Archive refers to a specific, likely elite, clone-only cut of DJ Short’s Blueberry that was preserved and circulated within Oregon’s medical cannabis community (OMMP – Oregon Medical Marijuana Program). While the exact lineage of this specific cut isn’t well-documented, it’s believed to be an older, more pure expression of DJ Short’s original Blueberry genetics, possibly from the late 90s or early 2000s.

Background on DJ Short’s Blueberry:

  • Created by DJ Short, Blueberry is a legendary strain bred from a mix of Highland Thai, Afghani, and Purple Thai.
  • Known for its fruity, berry-like aroma, deep purple hues, and euphoric yet relaxing effects.
  • DJ Short’s Blueberry was widely circulated, but different cuts have emerged over time, some being more Indica-leaning, others more Sativa-heavy.

What Makes the OMMP Cut Special?

  • Oregon’s medical community has been known for preserving older genetics that predate modern commercialization.
  • The OMMP Blueberry cut was likely selected and preserved for its superior terpene profile, potency, and stability.
  • Archive Seed Bank, known for their preservation work, may have acquired this cut through Oregon’s underground network.

@PsillyRabbit I grew out a bunch of dj blueberry beans when they first came around 99ish, found a great mutant indica I kept for years so thats what I was after. Was told a couple times it wasn’t dj’s blueberry, have heard she may be a 25-30 year old cut?

@MyrtleGrounds Thank you for the warm welcome. Saw the og meet up thread, I’m just up the coast a bit. Nice to meet you

Appreciate the invite, just cruised by there to check out a spot we almost bought in wolf creek. Not too often do you get a chance to smoke a joint in a church built in 1892

Wolf Creek is a sleepy town with close access to i5 and grants pass. It would be a great place to live, but they get a ton more snow then Myrtle Creek. We moved here from Calif central coast and snow is a slightly new concept to my husband and I. :rofl:

@MyrtleGrounds we were looking about 6 years ago, at the time I could of thrown up a nextgen greenhouse as a addition for what they were asking for the project house. All works out, glad the wife chose the coast. Now I just have to deal with marine layer
