Sorry to hear about Soul Man, maybe he could live on in the Useful menu. Sweet Tooth crossed to one of his favorite flavors (if he smoked) could be named Soul Man...idk just a thought, I’m sure if you setup a link we could donate and help out. No seeds necessary. Wishing you the best! Take care @Useful Seeds
Thank you, and a thank you to everyone else that have expressed condolences, bidded, offered help in many ways. It all seems unreal. He did like his flowers for sure !!! And I will be naming a line for him. Gonna take some time to figure out what it will be. And yes,while I don't have a link to a quick donation site, I do have a PO box that folks can send a small donation to the old school way. PM me

With all of that said, my friend Brian/ Soul Man was the guy that never met a stranger, it was as if everyone he met was a part of his life. He actually drove around with cast iron pans in his truck. If he was invited to a cookout, he would show up with his pans and plenty of food to contribute and he could cook !!! Last time we got together he ordered 2 cases of oysters, he built a fire and we shucked the oysters and he did his thing. My wife said to him, Soul Man, you know I don't eat seafood, he said to her "I know, this cast iron pan right here is gonna cook ya up some venison back strap medallions ". As he chucked the pan into the hot coals.

Another example of why we called him Soul Man. I remember going to a gas station with him, he sees this dude pumping gas and just walked up to him and said "hey brother how are ya doin, long time no see" I met you at a party remember me ?? The guy said you do look familiar, Soul Man hugged this guy and told him it was good seeing him again. Soul Man came back to the truck and I said, who was that, he said to me "I don't know brother, but it looked like he was having a really bad day by the look on his face" !!! Yeah, special person for sure !!!

He was certainly on another level, he was also younger than me, but taught me so much.
As life goes on i find myself learning from people younger then me rather than older people. I wonder if there is just a time when we have learned most of what we can from our elders. Sorry, for blabbing, Blackjack x Chocolate Diesel sometimes takes me places in my mind. Deep thoughts of life, good thoughts of where I've been, who I've met and where I'm going. Your speaking so highly of him made me think some of the friends I lost along the way. Really good memories. Thank you Useful for the mind meditation. So sorry for your loss bro, my heart feels for you.

I did check out those three seed exchanges and I couldn’t find any info concerning indoor, outdoor or climate that you often see on other sites selling seeds. It would suck to buy a couple of different types seeds and find out down the road that they don’t grow well outdoors where I live.
I grew choc d, lucky lime and black lime outdoors this past year and would grow those 3 again. The choc d had big really dense buds early rains and heavy dews caused some bud rot so I harvested early. But to answer your question those will grow well outdoors fairly hot 34 n climate.

Wow that story made me feel like I need to be a better person. I’m still pretty young, and I think that’s the type of stuff I wanna learn from more experienced folk. He certainly seems like a special person, and I hope you manage to get through it as well as his family.

Any noticable differnce in smell and flavor in lucky and black lime
I’m not to good at smell detection but can say both lines were limey,if my memory serves me right the most lime smelling plant I had was a lucky lime there were a couple of lucky limes that’s really put out the lime early on. The lucky lime were the more vigorous for sure. I was running 13 different strains so my sniffer was in sensory overload most of the time lol
