Talking late 70's hereBefore you read what I’m about to say realize this is directed at the sentiment of that statement and is not personal towards you.
Homegrown, when said like this is old school pejorative for people that can’t grow weed! Reality check, up until recently all grass was grown at someone’s home (for the most part), so to say some herb was ”good for homegrown” is really saying your grass isn’t bad considering your a rank amateur. I hate that statement so much! Especially when some fucker would say that about my stash but pay 500 an oz for it not knowing I was the grower.
Again, I bear you no ill will. I realize you meant no offense, my own brother even made a very similar statement to me once thinking he was paying me a compliment. To this day he doesn’t know the whole deal and how much I wanted to correct him for what to me was an insult!
Also, if you do what you do and people pay you for it, you are a professional. That man right there, @akhiymjames, is a professional, sir.
again, I’m not mad bro, it’s just a pet peeve
I remember it was more of a descriptive term to differentiate that it wasn't imported.
Could be a good thing - no paraquat or a
bad thing - leaves and stems, because they took Mexican seeds and grew it in a closet lined with tin foil and grown with an incandescent grow bulb.
It usually meant the later, so it became a mark of being grown by an amateur vs the professional.
