  8. jaggedbrain on June 13, 2021 at 7:23 pm

    if it’s too cold you don’t get the biology? how cold? cold water holds more oxygen so it actually encourages more aerobic probiotics and bacteria. cold oceans have more life than warm oceans..



  9. Victor Figuereo on June 13, 2021 at 7:23 pm

    Great show keep up the good work.



  10. Chemtrail Warrior on June 13, 2021 at 7:25 pm

  22. José Manuel Luján on June 13, 2021 at 7:39 pm

    These videos started looking like product commercials



  23. The Silent One on June 13, 2021 at 7:41 pm

    46% 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣



  24. fred kapp on June 13, 2021 at 7:42 pm

    Very very very few flowers test over 30-35% thc.. maybe over 40% total cannabinoids.. people are off on this highest THC % its about entourage effect.. if flowers aren’t 2-4% terpenes should not buy. Best example The Emerald Cup over 700 flower entries this year highest THC was over 32%. It came in over 300th place overall. All top 10 winners 16-26% thc all were 1.5-4.5% terpenes. Dont be like most customers in a dispensary asking for products with highest THC. Educate yourself.



  25. Bobby O'Donnell on June 13, 2021 at 7:47 pm

    the whole procesthph is amazing! love this guy! great video



  26. Josh Lepik on June 13, 2021 at 7:49 pm

    did the company that makes those lights go out of business?



  27. Perry Escobar on June 13, 2021 at 7:50 pm

    Beautiful property brother.



  33. Joseph Pahl on June 13, 2021 at 8:00 pm

    where can you purchase "sweet melissa" legally?



  34. Homegrown Genetics on June 13, 2021 at 8:00 pm

    Not saying they’re fabricated, but maybe there was an error at the labratory? 46% TAC is nuts, let alone just THCa



  35. hailey reed on June 13, 2021 at 8:02 pm

    so when are we going to stop fooling people who just dont know any better? the whole industry does this shit knowing most people have the wrong idea about testing numbers. i will make you a deal, i bet 5000$ that i can take one of my strains and gram for gram of flower i would kick the shit out of this 46% thc strain. lets both blast,press,bounce what ever you want to do to 10 grams. you run your 46% strain, and i will run my best producing strain. and see who wins batch for batch. these numbers are useless without taking into account overall potency of flower by weight. do i believe the number? sure and i do think its pretty cool dont get me wrong but in the end its nothing without taking total cannabinoid production at a given weight of flower. in the end a big number in front of thc is what sells buds, but its more of a marketing scam with the way its setup at the moment. in the end after 20 years of growing, in my opinion its more about finding the perfect blend anyways. there are well over 100 different cannabinoids but we focus on just thc because it sells product to people who dont know better. keep chasing test numbers and i will keep chasing for that perfect blend of cannabinoids and high production by gram. thats what the people want. and i never see these companies explaining the truth. this is why you see supposedly high % strains that look like shit and supposedly lower % strains that look like they have been rolled around in sugar. i would like to try it, i think its cool. im curious if this guy got lucky with a mother or if this is a legit seed to seed stable strain that always throws high thc? how does it respond in a completely organic soil setup? i loved dwc, its the way to go with hydro in my opinion. when i cared more for production numbers its what i ran and would again. just curious if you have to run this hydro to even be worth it? in the end for me i took the hit and moved on to 100 organic and natural soil grows. i have achieved frostier buds than i ever thought possible from soil but still not hitting my hydro numbers in resin production. but in the end once you get your hands on some proper organic soil grown bud you wont miss the hydro. i dont grow for money i grow for me, or course i have friends and i dont mind helping them out. but production numbers just get in the way of quality product. speaking of my friends, when my state got legal and the shops and big money ops came along churning out extreme numbers and talking high test numbers they all went and tried it out. but very quickly they all came back to my bud. speaks for itself. i do like that this is an actual op, not a damn factory like a lot of mega setups. seems like a good group of people and im happy for them and hope they do well and stay that way. cant blame anyone for playing the game that it seems they have to play to make it. but lets start being a bit more honest about things. just because someone isnt telling a lie doesnt mean they are telling the whole truth either. thats what i am seeing with the whole industry. it focuses on making money over making the best medicine. this plant saved my life at a young age when i was very sick and nobody seemed to be able to help me, so i just take it pretty serious i guess. 20 years of focusing on producing the best medicine for no reason other than wanting a better medicine has me looking at the industry and shaking my head. its a real shame that so many people with a real passion for this worked so hard and in the end a bunch of bone heads that hated cannabis till they seen it as $$ signs moved in and screwed it all to hell chasing a higher bullshit number than the next guy to sell product over focusing on what really matters. just look at carts, i believe carts have a very high potential as medicine for some people with certain medical issues. but money hungry people chasing that $ ruined that for us. just look at all the junk thats out there. only kids or hipsters are really going thru carts compared to people who have been around for a long time. nobody trust them and i cant argue against that. if i make oil i only use the flower that i would also personally smoke, all my popcorn and good trim go to making cannabutter. any op that runs their stems and bullshit lower trim just to squeeze every last $ from a plant is only trying to make money. thats why all these cheap carts are around. bunch of trim and stem juice lol.



  36. Stew Matter on June 13, 2021 at 8:02 pm

  44. Chad Cox on June 13, 2021 at 8:07 pm

    I’m a disabled vet and I can relate to his journey thru all the "meds", aka poison. Sadly I’m still on that journey; but, help is on the way. I’ll be out from under the threat of random urinalysis in three months. That’s when, with the help of some close fiends, I will get off the pills. Watching these videos keeps my face smiling and my heart full of hope. Thank you for presenting this!



  45. Timmer on June 13, 2021 at 8:08 pm

    This was outstanding. What an awesome community.



  46. OFF ROAD on June 13, 2021 at 8:09 pm

    The flood in Oklahoma is driving prices down from around 3.5k to 1k per pound. With people building crazy grow facilities won’t be long and prices will crash
