Should we worry about sharing seed bank info?

@legalcanada Read the whole thread please I clearly state it’s not a issue with sharing expieriances in terms of there gear is good or this is a legit bean bank, I was pointing out one simple thing and it was that documenting in writing I bought from so and so and they arrived when you are in a country they are not supposed to ship to not a great idea in my opinion, so many of these comments are implying my concerns incorrectly I’m not sure if you all are just reading the last few comments and chipping in or are intentionally miss representing the nature of my concerns, this is a place to share thoughts , I shared mine some agree some disagree , there is no reason to continue the back and forth it’s just a difference in opionion, @ray I couldent agree more the scene hasn’t changed much sense the gypsy pom/ rez show went on air, the skunk man collapse and all the other b.s. that distorted genetics and truths around the globe. I have a good skunk i like fruity but I guess these days I need to call it super purple cripta chrona funk og for it to be good

fucking 116 page thread on myplanetganja about a corrupt FBI agent extorting him. the guy sure knew how to tell a tale anyways. probably mostly bullshit. @Viva_Mexico i hope your security door is half as good as the door PoM claimed to have had, apparently “the door is a legend at the kingston police station” (ya right)

PoMs description of his security door

“Kick down my door? Kick down my fucking door? That door is a Johnson Specialties* 8 hour fire rated steel clad beauty, with 2 inches of fire-crete™ barrier material, 6mm criss-crossed hardened steel internal supports, with quad dual-throw cross axis throw bolts. There’s 8 fucking 3/4 inch hacksaw proof bolts six inches long that secure BOTH fucking sides of the frame/door matings, with drop-forged alloy roll rods free-floating internally to defeat attempts at cutting. There’s six fucking heavy duty hinges on your side of the door attached to an 8 inch reinforced steel joist that forms the frame the fucking door is attached to. There are six of those fucking heavy duty roll-pressed hinges because the door alone weighs over 200 fucking kilograms, and they have to fucking support its weigh when it opens. You could spend six hours with sledgehammers and cold chisels peeling the fucking hinges off the door and you still wouldn’t be one iota closer to kicking my fucking door down. And note that the fucking hinges are on YOUR FUCKING SIDE of the door. My side of the door has more RSJ I beam, you could hit the fucking thing with a tank and tear the fucking building down and that fucker would still be closed. That fucking door cost me 2200 fucking quid, and right up until now I had buyers remorse thinking maybe I had gone a little over the top with it. But now, now I fucking love that door, and I fucking dare you to even fucking THINK about kick it down!”

Never considered it non fiction, but you are right POM knew how to spin a yarn.

again, if you don’t want to share what you bought or where or when you don’t have to. you can’t control other people and you have to expect people to do the dumbest shit. most seedbanks operate legally. the ones that don’t probably anticipate and prepare for the worst. but i’m sure both cases they appreciate free advertising

I have read the fine print of seed banks before. I have never sent a seed bank any fine print for when selling to me.

I got a real nice fruity Sk#1 clone from Lucas way back when. I see people still talking about Lucas formula. Lucas started out on cannabis.com as Newbie. Along with Dick hertz he was a real pain in Uncle ben’s ass. lol

That’s awesome, this one smells fruity skunky with the rare hint of cheese smell when done outside but when done inside comes out smelling like the original bubba and tasting like kushy skunk , crossed it to a sfv hoping to get a earthy kush skunk flavor they came out somewhere between grape and fruit punch from what I’ve tested so far weird how genes line up some times

@Heritagefarms I can see you have some history with the community. I think you should speak with with our Admin. His name is @LemonadeJoe.

You are welcome to continue your discussion.

I always considerd the Lucas method or ratio as a option depending on the nitrogen needs of the strain, alot of people tend to use the micro when they would benefit from the hard water micro , some people esp with wells or in the mtns have enough cal/mag in there water to begine with

@GrapeApe i would be happy to but in regards to what exactly?

Lucas and I had many lengthy discussions, very smart dude. When he posted the info on the “Lucas Formula” he wanted to create a knowledge base for new growers. But was quickly sidetracked by his desire to somehow serve the medical community. I miss our conversations.

Talking about the hype and drama within the community. I found it was best to become friendly with a handful of solid people and ignore the drama. Lots of great info was exchanged through PM’s and email many times to avoid the public “discussions”.

I was really surprised to come back online and find Mr. Soul giving video interviews and making public appearances.

I’m glad you asked. I’ve spent some time reading your posts. I’m not sure of your agenda here,or even if you have one at all. If you have a problem with Overgrow its only fair that you speak with the site owner.

Well no issue with overgrow just the nature of people I guess , it’s the same threw out the web not particular to this site, and my agenda is to gain knowledge, compare thoughts and ideas not much to discuss with owner from what i can tell, all this from a comment about concerns regarding the safety of documenting delevery this kinda of arguing and Drama and over reacting is why so many left overgrow back in the day, and then left ic and all the other forums, many don’t even bother getting on anymore because of the behavior of others

I signed up hoping to find a positive exchange for ideas and knowledge as I did originally in the past , and I believe that still exists within the community and this site , it’s just sad to see people still telling 15 versions of the same stories and being quick to disagree with somebody and then feel the need to endlessly argue there point instead of accepting others opionion and possibly learning something from there point of view , I dont get mad or threatened when people disagree with me some things can be true for one person but not the other

Can you clarify this statement. I’ve read most of this site and would like to know what stories you are speaking of.

Yeah I’m sure the mongoose will make things all sorts of interesting he always was good at that wasent he, only the people who were there will ever know what truly happened and some of them are prob still trying to fig it out the rest of us who care are left to decipher a mess of lies and broken friendships caused by greed and ego surrounding a plant thats main reason of existing has always been to heal not to creat chaos

I’ve ran in the Cup Races,I’ve gave blood in the Seed Wars and have lived a private life so the community could move forward.

I remember the history, but I try to leave it buried.

When I say telling multiple versions of same stories I am just referencing the disagreement about who did what , who created what and how certain things happend threw out the last 40 years, Almost any strain I read about online now has several stories of who made it and When, kinda like the og kush debaucal, alot breeders and people have not been given credit for certain contributions made , this is not even pertaining to the original subject anymore

Maybe… I think you have a story to tell. I’m giving you a chance to tell it. We can clean the topic up later.
