who said anything about giving shits? or professionally growing?

ever grow unknown stock? a clone renamed? geesh..happens all the time. professional growers look at the genetics,

finish is subjective. even here hundreds say amber, some say never, some want some clear some cloudy. those subjective differences/preferences coupled with differing rooms would easily account for another 20 days of the finish, subjectively of course.
