Thank you @Gloriosa superba, your purchase is being packed and will update you the tracking number. As per original the full amount was paid to Fields of Green for All. You getting an unreal package, that even the most seasoned breeders would be sweating for. Cannabis, tobacco and chillies on their way.

That looks delicious, I just remembered I have a half eaten homegrown cucumber in my passenger seat from last nights barter!!!!
-
Due to the lack of interest in this, going to make a top package for @Gloriosa superba. Sent you a DM. Cheers.
-
With pleasure. Can send off next week. I will send you a dm.

Not to sure, but about 10 or so years ago I got a box of these nutrients from GHS as test samples. They were in clear vaccum sealed bags and the compound was a green/yellowish colour. I think I might have done a test grow on the GHS forums, not to sure though. They worked well for me, I used them separately in a basic soil mix and harvested some big buds.

Any advice or experience with tinctures
Chris Jay replied to Shambles's topic in Extracts & Concentrates
My local farm yard pub has just opened again, yayyy. I annexed my tincture bottles day before yesterday from the display and busy making more to refill the bottles. I usually just use as high proof retail alcohol ( generally use white rum ) I can get my hands on, add about 30 grams of bud to a 750ml bottle. Mix it up and let it sit for a couple months. Then sieve through a stocking and bottle it. I often have a coffee and shot of cannacane. Making something unique in the next couple of weeks with regards to tinctures. Will post it when I am done. The pineapples are almost ready for stilling!!! Hopefully going to get it tested in a lab, see what I am really drinking. -
Last of the craft weekend, corked in a bottle with a label. Made these cool 50ml taster bottles for a friend. They are three varieties: 1. Cinnamon and Beetroot 2. Pineapple 3. Mango

If any of you guys are into surf, sand or sea, I have found a hidden gem for you. Shaka Surf Shack, an Unreal place built into nature around trees, with treehouses to stay in for only R250 per night. You are are about a 200 metre walk through forests to dunes and sea. Nice chill areas, entertainment area, skate half pipe and freedom. Surf school with a pro surfer if you are interested, you can do sandboarding on the dunes next door or a quick walk to blue flag beaches of Port Alfred. Go inland a little to Bathurst village, a farming community with lots of eccentrics, growers, stoners, artists, potters, home to the biggest pineapple in the world. Something for everyone in the area, rivers, dunes, game reserves on the unspoiled sunshine coast. "Live your life be free"

How'd you get into weed and why you started growing
Chris Jay replied to PsyCLown's topic in General Discussion
This is about a decade before Nguni. Thats where nguni is, history. I work with some breeders I trust now, hand out genetics to guys I know who will work with them and have the street cred, passion, patience. If you realised the shit I received, idle death threats, hate from guys even on this board who never even bought from nguni, I realised it was not worth it, especially since it was still illegal. Too much stress, although nguni seeds are still being grown today. Was recently going to send 420 seeds to a group I support, but was told literally to mind my own business by one of their dark horses. Was told i was an uneducated drug addict and ironically an article was published 4 days after his unwarranted trolling, and I was quoted in saying "legalise all drugs". . History is still being made, I am about to start consulting for someone interesting, he revolutionized the cocaine industry, not Rick Ross, Freeway Rick Ross. He has two new cannabis brands that I am keen to help. -
You doing it very right, dont stress too much. If you think growing weed is addictive, try growing it.

How'd you get into weed and why you started growing
Chris Jay replied to PsyCLown's topic in General Discussion
Got into it when I was about 9 years old. Was skateboarding, mates older sister told us about smoking grass. So we took it literally and rolled up some old lawn clippings in some paper and tried smoking it around the corner. Tasted like dog shit. So that was my first false start. Ended up at a new years beach party when I was 14, on the north coast around a fire, joint comes round and that was the first real smoke. Loved it and was hooked for a couple years. Smoked and dealt throughout my teenage years, got into lots of shit, almost expelled, almost arrested , beaten, cops never caught me, and they tried many times. Went overseas and realised there was so much more to cannabis, introduced to some up and coming breeders, a saffie imported some hash in his shoe, bought some products from bodyshops new hemp range during the mid 90's, hit Amsterdam, bought the Howard Marks book as it was just released, Mr Nice book at Heathrow airport after it being recommended by a friend. Oh and the other big thing was I worked in Switzerland as a gardener in 1997, we had a huge greenhouse up in the mountains, a couple sativa's grown, and on my weekends off I used to go into the same village mentioned in Mr Nice and could openly buy weed from one groovy shop, so it really opened my eyes to what cannabis was. However in those years, DAGGA was hugely frowned upon, it was not like it was today, the stigma has changed so much. Proud to be a stoner. -
Looking great @John Stonedwell. As you scrolling through the pictures are just getting better. Nice growing bud.

New drop coming within the next 2 weeks!
Chris Jay replied to Golden-Goose's topic in Strain Discussion
@Golden-Goose, your lineup sounds classic. Hear you about breeding lines today, but personally I only think its improving, however with the sad loss of landrace. ICMAG is without a doubt the best place for proper unique strains, lots of depth and some top people. I just logged back in after a couple years of dormancy. Good to see some old faces there, Doobie Duck is one man I would love to get genetics from, but he does not part easily. But received some of the real oldschools from that board many years ago. One of my best was getting a test variety of OG Kush from Franco ( GHS ) directly. Never realised I had so many sought after strains direct from breeders themselves. Love the cannabis community. Two of my favorite breeders, Bodhi and Snowhigh are working on some great old school genetics, you will see them showing up in podcasts soon with Canna Cribs. Here is the latest podcast from Canna Cribs and whats happening, interesting if you keen on oldschool. Anyone know if Mota Rebel is still around, I have a feeling he passed several years ago. His seeds were out of this world, off the top of my head, Lebanese Bekka, Pakistani Chitral........ Well that is the thing, I see all these new names coming, sounds more like a childs candy store. Variety is bliss and love the old landraces. Still smoking on my lesotho landrace from last season. I remember a hipster dropping a joint in the bin saying he does not smoke majat. I smiled and he stabbed himself ( true story ), had to race him to hospital. He does not carry knives anymore and is fairly interested in landraces now. Amazing how the wheel turns. i wish I had filmed two renowned activists talking about DP, damn my heart sank. They all into the new candy strains, but recently started getting involved in landrace. -
The man that made this board passed away a couple days ago. He was a hemp pioneer, surfer, grower, father, brother and friend. RIP Chipper. Just to say something. I was driving down the coast a couple weeks back, meaning to call him, pop past and say high. In these dark days, just do what you feel, dont miss an opportunity to say high to an old mate.

Just remember to give them some space, the grow large, but you can grow underneath them once you prune the lower leaves off. Happy growing.

Two tracks I been listening to heavily. Reminds me of when I was a kid watching a bakkie drive past in JHB with guys on the back, they whipped out AK's and robbed a bank, then started firing randomly. Took me sometime to find out the song at the end of the first video. It was worth it.

Alot, more than I can smoke and giveaway. Just gave away half a kilo at lunchtime, dried cured. Only have about 10 plants growing.

Cannabis is the human companion plant
Chris Jay replied to Chris Jay's topic in General Discussion On Medical Cannabis
Only a pleasure bud and well done supporting local. She is a great person, healer and in love with cannabis. Her book is brilliant and I can recommend it to anyone interested in knowing more about the real medical facts about cannabis. -
Looking great @Stinger96. Good luck with your first attempt at indoor, I am sure it will be great and looking forward to seeing your results.

Iqela Lentsango: The Dagga Party of South Africa is a South African political party founded in February 2009 by Jeremy Acton, who remains the party's leader. The party's position is that cannabis users should have the same rights as people who use tobacco and alcohol.Acton was one of the people responsible for bringing the case before a South African court which resulted in the partial decriminalisation of dagga in South Africa.

Getting all hot and sweaty with all this geek speak. 420% understand, just wish I knew how to code properly, if only I had not dropped that Java book down on chapter 4. Its happening across the globe and here in SA and Lesotho, African Landraces. I am going to a licensed grow in Lesotho around end of March to see some landraces that have been grown for about 3 years, they are currently flowering 10000 plants!!

Great news for you. There is not just one book, I think there are 2 or 3 and a movie!!! One from his wifes perspective. But the original is worth the reread anyway. If you guys are talking and loving local, consider buying our own SA born smugglers book, The Unexploded Boer by Erich Rautenbach. He sadly passed away from cancer about 3 years ago and was then based in Canada. Its a great read too, you can buy it locally, try bidorbuy or takealot. He was a genuine man/smuggler/stoner. I got him to sign his book too, damn I am posting the message, it means alot.

I met Franco briefly many decades ago in London, never met Simon or Arjan. I got GHS hooked up with Dr Ben Dlamini ( ex Registrar of the Examinations Council, and cannabis activist ) and a couple growers we had been assisting. Iam not to sure why i did not meet them, I used to be very underground and avoid most things due to working for companies that did not appreciate cannabis. My best meet was Howard Marks, I think around 2007/08 when he was doing a tour in SA. His book was published in '95, Mr Nice, was one of the main reasons I started getting involved in cannabis and it was an absolute honour to meet him, share a joint and get his autograph. I love getting autographs, dont now why, its a fetish. 1 year ago today Dr Ben passed away from old age. He had been advocating for the legalisation of cannabis since the 80s. People laughed at him then, but now their heads are out their arses and they are still trying to work it out. RIP good man. Made this music video for Bushy Williams around 2007, with Dr Ben in it. Lol at @Ill_Evan, my eyes at the end looked a little like the image you created, not cooked though, more baked.
