Feelings on Home grown

[rc_headache28]

now when I say homegrown IM not talking fancy seeds and high tech gardening. Im talking out door plants that usually you just save seeds through out the year that were from good shit. and plant them and the result is good shit but sometimes stringy and leafy but pretty and most importantly farm fresh ( less then 2 or 3 weeks old and didnt get transported and packed and bagged and stepped on through out the dealers big to small.

Any ways i love it. Clean taste. clean high. Not over powering But just right. And usually inexpensive.

How do you all feel on this subject im actually in hearing these comments.

Thanks

I have never grown weed myself so I don't really have any personal anecdotes on the subject.

But if you enjoy growing some for yourself and it's rewarding, go for it!

9 times out of 10 seeds from 'good shit' will not produce more of the same. Hell, it might not even remotely resemble the bud from which it came. Out of hundreds of plants only a very small number of individuals could end up being like the mother and father (or just the mother) it came from.

That's not to say there's no use in saving seed. Quite the contrary, but you need to know what you're doing by having at least some basic knowledge and you need to have chosen the right strain to work with. I'm not talking IBLs, which, apart from being used to produce other crosses, have little use to a farmer wanting to just produce good homegrown weed, but I'm referring to strains that have a decent amount of genetic heterogeneity such as landraces specifically designed for this purpose. That way what you have is able to adapt and give you at least some genetic diversity.

There's a lot to be said for this way of growing IMO. I think more people should learn how to do this instead of having an unhealthy dependence on the seed companies. Next year I'm starting my very own amateur hack project with Thai, Lebanese and Afghan strains all used, as well as possibly some of the more well known ones like blueberry. Most of it will be done outdoors.

Here's a pic of one of my own mould resistant hacks, called Kumanese (Kumaoni x Lebanese). It's beautiful, even if I say so myself:
