Killing it Duggan...garden looking amazing as usual. How to those BB Twists smell compared to the double berry's?
Hi gang...can anyone tell me their ideas on what CKS seeds i should get with my gift cert. for MOTM? I was just looking at their website , and i already chose and grew out the Green Crack...what else they got worth doing...i mean really worth it! Was looking over that Extreme Haze they got but it's only in reg. , so that's out! Cheers and thanks
I personally really enjoyed there hash plant. Had very good luck with them. Very nice bud and I had close to 150g a plant off them if I remember correctly with 2 month veg from seed. Shorter plant bud very big thick dense buds. My 2nd is cbd Dutch treat.ive also heard that crown royale is very nice but have never grown it myself just heard from a fellow grower.
Yes Yeti, very cool story , covered a few years...thanks so much for sharing Rad!! Like yeti said too, you told it well
OK, that story reminds me of when i was 18 and bought my second 1967 Camero for 500 bucks...no rust 327 4 speed, Muntzie, Hurst......etc.Ya...500 bucks, let a friend drive it one day ,....wrapped it around a silo..out in the country,..he blamed it on my tires! Next day i made an incorrect left hand turn with two girls in the car and got t boned(other side from the silo) and pushed up against a tow truck, not good! Bad times for Duggan..LMFAO...not so much! Anyhow the car was a write off and i paid , large for the two other vehicles. Have a great night eh!...
That Opel Kadett for $300 actually came as a free car. Flip wanted to sell it to me so he said borrow it for a week and see how you like it as a daily driver. So on day 2 I'm at a stop light and the light turns green. When I tried to accelerate I had not quite found first gear in the transmission, so the synchros didn't mesh and it popped out of gear. Rather than moving I stayed and BAM the truck behind me hits at 5-10 mph.
The lady in the mail truck who hit me said "Please let's not report this. I sideswiped a car last week and I'll lose my job. Can we make a deal to get it repaired?"
I looked at the trunk which was dented in about 3 inches, and the fender which was dented in 2 inches, and I tried to open the trunk and it wouldn't open,. Besides that all the lights worked and the wheels were still on straight, so I said "I bet $300 will cover all the damages."
We drove to the bank. She handed me $300 in cash. I drove to my friends house and paid $300 in cash for the car.

I promise this next one is the last old car story for now... but you did speak fondly of a Z28 Camaro Trans Am Firebird kind of car.

I worked in computers and my buddy who lived and breathed computers had 2 jobs and no girlfriend. So he celebrated his 21st birthday by purchasing a one year old 1979 10th anniversary Firebird Trans Am in Gold with the shaker hood and a firebird logo spanning the whole hood. It was a middle-age crisis car on a one year lease that was returned at lease expiration with about 7000 miles on it. He was especially proud that it was imprted into California from Arizona because California didn't allow that big of an engine to be sold with a manual transmission.
About 6 months later, he called me on a Sunday morning and said he had spent all day Saturday trying to exchange a competition clutch for the stock clutch on the Borg Warner 4 on the floor transmission. He asked me if I'd come over and give him a hand. I had a Fiat X 1/9 at the time. And I got to tell you that that 400 cubic inch engine and transmission were a whole lot bigger and heavier than I was used to working with. He had a genine transmission jack, a splined locating tool for the clutch, and everything looked right. Away from the transmission, the new clutch slide on and off the crankshaft just fine - but inserting the shaft into the clutch inside the darkness of the bell housing just wasn't happening. We even reassembled with the old clutch to make sure we had the technique of using the locating tool just right.
After about two hours of this, I convinced him it was time to go troglodyte mechanic on his big beautiful baby. I got under the car, put one combat boot on each side of the bell housing, grabbed whatever I could grab, and humped that clutch up onto the drive shaft. An hour after that we were cleaned up and ready for the test drive. 220 horsepower, wide and low slung with an open road alongside a field about 2 blocks away. He showed me how to take off easy so as not to burn too much rubber and then spin the tires again at the upshift into 2nd gear.
Then he said the clutch was stiff. Of course the clutch was stiff. Stock 320 ft lbs of torque and he ordered a stiffer than stock clutch!
Then he said I needed to drive and feel the clutch. I put in the clutch for the first time and I was glad I hadn't worn my Chuck Taylors (we still called them All-Stars back then.) I needed the ankle support of the boots to put in the clutch. I drove around the block and said, "That's a stiff clutch but it feels real good." I was probably giggling when I said it because that engine felt like it had jet engine power.
Then he said, "Dude. You just drove that like an old lady. I want you to light up the tires and FEEL the clutch!"
So I did.
I dropped that clutch, eased it back off 'til the tires hooked up. Dropped the clutch on the upshift into second. Had to ease back off until the tires hooked up in second gear. Dropped the clutch on the shift into third. Felt a split second spin in third gear and then a chirp and a bump as the car flew another 10th of a mile - eased off the accelerator and noticed I had a huge ass grin on my face. My buddy was a little pale. I don't think he realised what it was like to ride shotgun the way he drove. (I'd been riding shotgon in a Lotus for 2 years - but didn't have much seat time in big muscle cars )
This was a Sunday. The following Friday he came up to me at work and punched me in the shoulder.
"What's that for?" I asked
"I've been trying all week and I haven't been able to chirp the tires in third... and it's my car!"
I took that as a compliment, but it was really just the result of me spending 5 years in a series of small cars with under 80 horsepower - and trying to drive them quick.
... Don' tell me she drives that in the winter! Wheeee .... !
I cut my snow and ice driving teeth on overpowered 60s machines - had a 66 Biscayne with a 327, cam, manifold with a big Holley, etc. That back end would just scoooooot across the snow sideways.
... man, I learned a lot about driving in that car ...
Hey Beaves,..they smell sweet ,...but not like Blueberries...
Hey there Scotia...thanks man..i was looking over that HP they got. What's the buzz like bud? You say it's short with big buds....sounds like it's right up my alley. thanks again.
I have never run any of their gear. They seem to have mixed reviews on a lot of their gear. You had awesome luck with the GC's so maybe stay with that? Canna and Nis seemed to have good luck with their Purple Kush. I like purple strains and thats one of theirs I wouldnt mind trying. Then again I like diesel strains so sour diesel or sour jack look good as well.. I have seen a few people say their blueberry is not great and have seen bad reviews on the white widow.
For us it seems to be really earthy. No real heavy terps but it is some smooth smoke. We have some that has been curing for 14 months and I am curious to give it another shot.How does that purple kush taste Nis?
