yah, about idk, 2 or 3 years ago the good dr came on this site asking for a couple of people willing to do a test grow on his then new the dope strain.. i threw my hat in the ring never expecting to get the gig, but surprise of all surprises i was one of the few he picked and he sent me a 10 pack of the dopes which i grew out for him..
i personally love the dr's gear.. yah, he can be a crochety old man at times on the phone, but he's helped me out more then once when i rang him up for advice.. i just roll with it and don't have any issues with the man nor his gear..
his og ghost cut is still my number 2 smoke under chocolate rain.. and i'm friendly with dr gruber who has grown out pretty much 90% of the docs gear, and his grow journals kill it..
i even know a member on here who used to talk so much smack about dr greenthumbs, still kind of does, but even he had to admit that the sour d he grew out from him was straight up fire... it was nice to see someone who's not a fan like myself openly admit that his gear is solid.. it meant a lot to me..
