ooooooh suits you sir hahahaa
From what I know of it is.....I just happened to stumble into the guy who is growing it in the Dam, and he was given it as a clone I believe. It's now hit the coffeeshops big since his harvest came out. He was willing to give me as many clones as I wanted...he was like, "you sure you only want 2?"..... Well actually I want 22, but I aint got the room or the lungs to smoke it all, hahaha....is casey jones a clone only then D or what?
Good film Human Traffic!!i've had the nycd here and dam which was a very nice tasting, light high but nice buzz. have smoked the trainwreck was a messy nite! had the jack herrer that nite 2 from a mate from kinda near ur ways Don (morpeth, near ur ways from where i am anyway ) better than the stuff i had in dam in my opinion sounds like a good combo, i'm obviously asuming the ecsd is a sour version of the nycd? that headband sounds good 2. dst i never realised u resided in the greatest land in the world, ur scotish accent threw me lol. "nice one brother, I SAID NICE ONE BROTHER" - human traffic lol. anyways got back work late gonna get some food and get 2 bed.
I'll take that in a good mannered way, Don. As I said on the 600 Club, the coffeeshops are just supplied by guys like you who grow in the UK. In fact a lot of the good stuff comes from expat growers. And all the cheese that is in the Dam came from the UK. I think the first strain to come over here was brought over by some Brummie boys....I could be wrong though.hahah i know a lot of folks from morpeth, fucking weird town it is.
and ive been saying for a while i reckon the homegrowing connoisseur's grow could take the pepsi challenge with that amsterdam shit any day of the week!
And he is probably correct lad!!funny enough my mate that i went dam with says my blue cheese is better than any cheese that we smoked there. the g13 from barneys was nice though, really tempted 2 pick n mix a few had some good smoke up them ways u northerners have got it locked down lmao
my mate that i got sophie of was thinking about going 2 get some more, i told him no way. i'll rather pospone my grow a week and give u the snips rather than that rubbish (he;ll sort me out after) it never rains mate, always something going on lol
my fav coffee shop was near where we was staying (amstel square) The Old Amsterdam Coffee Shop. Old skool guy, nice bloke. got some off menu stuff, the nite shade was really heavy duty. amnesia from stix was good 2 (in the same area) (i doubt u'd know them but its worth a shot) interesting that u say the stuff we smoke out there is grown by guys like us! makes sense, the best stuff i've had here has all been grown by normal run of the mill guys (like us)From what I know of it is.....I just happened to stumble into the guy who is growing it in the Dam, and he was given it as a clone I believe.

Good film Human Traffic!!
I believe its from along those lines, same linneage as OG Kush etc, chemdog based....

i heard it was from uk
The problem is coffesshops passing weed of as something else (it's not just happening in the UK)
A friend of mine (in the loosest sense of the word) works in one of the less scrupulious shops, now on average he will have around 3 kind of weeds in. But the menu will have around 5 or 6 on it. Each bag has been weighed out so is ready to be sold, he then has to blag if someone asks for something that is not in stock. Then he has to remember if the same idiot comes back the next day wanting something different that is also not in stock.
Most weed that goers around coffeeshops being touted as WW, it Power Plat, and so the bull$hit goes on. The original WW is no longer available as far as I am aware....
my mate got a seed (aparently) i took over from him, that stuff was on par with the blue cheese, different taste though. i was under the impression it was, it did go sugar coated at the end, heavier than the bc. thing is as u probs read i labled pots incorectly and threw the baby away (had taken snips while still in veg)
And he is probably correct lad!!
(thanks bro)
The only thing about Barneys (and the Greenhouse - with Arjan and his St_ain Hunters - lol) is that they are really crushing the little coffeeshops...especially when it comes to the Cup over here.....it's got to the stage where there is no point to it. You can't knock them for their business acumen though I guess....
here endeth the rant
mate that is a bit of mehahah aye something like this
im runnning canna coco A&B pk13/14 and some humboldt county's purple maxx as a foliar feed and the gravity to finish them up if i'm in a hurry
as for adding N late in =to flower its a good idea yeah but not 100% necessary, if your running high nutes through late flower like you should be the A&B has enough N to see you through. if your using something without N at all then your pretty much guaranteed deficiencies sooner or later.
Utrechtsestraat thats the one. i found barneys by remembering the street name, probs spelt wrong but harrlemhammerstraat. got a good/strange memory for things like that, bearings etc. the stix was just round the corner from our hotel and old amsterdam CS. was a bit low on the exchange rate at the time, has risen a little since then.Not sure of the Old Amsterdam Coffeeshop, but I know Stix for sure. They have 2 shops, one on the Utrechtsestraat and one near the Nieuwemarkt. I am guessing if you stayed down in Amstelplein you would have visited the Stix on Utrechtsestraat. Stix always have some good weed kicking about.
there'll always be the market for the smalltimer, in all industries pretty much sooner or later the big industry types become lame and hated... microsoft anyone?I'll take that in a good mannered way, Don.

no offence intended man i was just meaning i think the care attention nd money on nutes etc put into home growing is on par with the stuff in the coffee shops as its grown by blokes much the same as yasen putting the love and care into it.

thats just shady cant believe it goes on

that's pretty shocking, out of interest do you buy bags form the coffee shops often or just when your out?

the original white widow is now sold by shantibaba unde rthe name black widow so the legend goes..... every seed co ive seen has it listed as out of stock tho?!

here endeth the rant
heard of this gonna look it upi know what you mean about that black widow mate...cant get it anywhere...its starting to seem like all the seeds are gone......
if you get hold of em let me know.....i,m very interested to see if it lives up to its statusheard of this gonna look it up
i do now what you mean man, there are a few hazes out there that are as you remember them tho do some research and get the closest you can id think maybe thai but thats just a guess ive only ever grown hybrids and indicayeah that does me in how big companys monopolise everything. dont get me started on how things aint british anymore either, latest one to fall cadbrys. lol rant over.
i'm learning fast and it does seem that there is a lot of new strains, mainly high cross breads. i'd love 2 get some haze like the stuff i used 2 smoke but wouldnt have a clue where 2 start looking. just normal "peppery" haze lol if u know what i mean? only thing that would be a long timer 12+ weeks?
Got some ssh on the go right now guys , only a couple of weeks since it popped but i will be takin regular pics a.s.a.p just need a quality cam firstive smoked it not grown it theres a couple of different seed companies do it i forget now which is better.
i really like soma as a breeder his stuff is some really good shit.
