420SA

@awildmeme your grow is looking great so far bud well done It looks like this thread is essentially becoming a diary so I'm going to move it under the Grow Diaries board if that's alright. This board is more for questions/topics on how to get a grow going for the first time. Cheers

As anticipated, people are still joining up to vent their frustrations with Cannabist... rightfully so! I would too... To avoid a pile up of related threads I am creating this post for members to link to when necessary, shortly thereafter the thread will be deleted. The situation It's gotten to the point where the number almost seems like hundreds, but there have been a very large of number of people who have joined 420SA to find out what they can do about their order that has not been fulfilled by Cannabist. This has been going on months now after the lockdown started and the common thread that has developed is that there is ZERO communication from Cannabist and this can draw out for weeks, even months. What's their excuse? Their excuse is the lockdown... a terrible excuse but it's their excuse nonetheless. Have you been scammed? No.... well at least not from the onset and Cannabist has been operating legitimately for the last year or so. We suspect there may be a break in their supply chain, a terrible error of judgement on their part which has screwed everyone over including themself. They are for the most part a drop shipping bank i.e. they take your money, pay it onto their supplier who will then send the seeds. Something has gone very wrong in the whole process So what now? Firstly, drop your expectations of being helped soon. They seem in no rush to value you as a customer and will not rush to inform you of when you might be getting your seeds. As they are a seedbank you unfortunately don't have the consumer protection act to help you, although I'm not 100% clued up on that. We'd suggest that you pursue other seeds in the mean while but continue to put pressure on them to fulfill your order. Put pressure on OZOW to remove them Ozow is a payment platform they recently signed up. Alert them to your situation and get other buyers to do the same! https://ozow.com/ Good luck out there!

You are one of the many many many victims bud. I'm sorry to say. You were not scammed but a victim of false promises and terrible service. They have been screwing up for almost 3 months now. Keep pushing and you will most likely come right eventually. There isn't much more we can do to help unfortunately

Nice thread idea @PsyCLown! In my school days I was largely against it actually. I had a few friends that began to smoke it quite a lot in grade 11 and 12, they used to head out on a scooter to the local taxi rank and grab a matchbox of jut from the taxi washer there. Twas more seed than bud! Even though I partook at times, and enjoyed myself immensely, I was still for the most part against it and stupidly worried that this "drug" would take over me, get me hooked, and send my life on a downward spiral....Idiot About 6 months or so after finishing matric I gradually started to indulge more and more with my mates, and as I grew to enjoy it more and more I started researching about it more and began to learn that what I've been told about cannabis simply wasn't true and that it's in fact safe to use, more so than booze. It's hard to pin point where it became the norm with me but one of the big factors was music and how much I would enjoy it while high, I also remember realising how it was shifting my perspective on things... the natural world and how everything is more connected than I'd previously realised or bothered to take note of ... I just enjoyed the way it made me see things. I still do 12 years later and I'm a solid every day user. Have I thought of quitting at times? Most definitely. Sometimes I feel I depend a little too much on it but I do feel that it helps me. I have a mild form of A.D.D and cannabis definitely helps to calm my mind and help me focus. Teachers in school strongly advised I go on Ritalin and I'm forever thankful my dad told them to fuck right off. Eventually I found the natural solution and being a person that sits at a PC all day, I can't bare to think how I would manage without it. So as far as that's concerned it's a medicine for me. Sometimes it makes me a little anxious but that stems from a current mindset. I know that because it doesn't always make me anxious. It's also strain dependent so there definitely is validity in finding the strain that works for you. I reckon everyone can attest to the fact that we all need those few hours of just not giving a fuck and cannabis does wonders for that. Bill Hicks sums that up beautifully with his line about waking up at noon and playing the citar if you haven't seen Bill Hick's standup then make sure you do! Pretty boring story but its a story nonetheless

Thanks for joining! Welcome

I've just rectified a serious issue with the classifieds. Listings were not showing to Regular Members. I re-saved the permissions and it all came right. @southern26 please can you check now and thanks for bringing this to my attention

@DamDave sorry to hear about your trouble but if it's isolated to you then there must be an issue with your device specifically. Sorry I couldn't be of further assistance

I'm keen to get a feel on what you guys may like to see stocked in our store in the future. Right now, it's very much a sideline project with not much attention paid to it although in the future I'd like it to stock unique genetics that our local breeders can offer. Other than that I don't want to stock it with items you'll find in many other online stores. I want it to be a bit more niche. Let us know what you would like to see in the store

Here are June's SOTM winners! 2nd place @Camille 1st Place @StickyD420 We had a tied vote with 2 of his pics... they were WELL DONE GUYS! @StickyD420 please can you PM me the following details: Your name Delivery Address Contact Number @Camille you will be receiving your TheHighCo coupon code shortly

I'm chiming in quite late here but can't say how happy I am to finally see initiatives like these starting up on the forum. I'd be more than happy to partake. I need some new genetics and I think this is the way I wanna go now. Trying out 420SA's finest. So those who are willing to sponsor me a cut I would be glad. I'll cover shipping of course

Hi guys There was a delay in deciding our nominees this week but here they are. Sorry things are a bit all over the place at the moment. There has been a lot going on Images are in a total random order @StickyD420 #1 @Stinger96 @StickyD420 #2 @StickyD420 #3 @Camille @StickyD420 #4 @StickyD420 #5 @ORGANinc. @Fridgedoor @Burly

I said earlier in this thread that we probs won't see the Hotbox show on for quite some time... Big respect to you guys for digging deep and making a very worthy tribute to the legend

The statement from Fields of Green For all says: "During the early morning hours of Friday, 3 July 2020, an armed robbery took place at the property of Jules Stobbs and Myrtle Clarke, best known as The Dagga Couple. The attackers entered the couple’s bedroom and shot and fatally wounded Jules Stobbs. Myrtle was physically left unharmed and the attackers made off with two cellphones and two laptops." So we'll have to wait and see what the true story was. According to a security guard, when they returned there was a struggle in which he landed up being shot multiple times. The guard speculated they may have returned for Myrtle but its all speculation and time will reveal the truth regarding that

Sorry guys the day job has just got me so busy at the moment. I have barely visited the forum in the past week. Closing date was 01/07/2020... that's 1st of July. Forgot to turn off the entries open tag, sorry about that We will get the nominees decided today hopefully and should have the winners for you near the end of the week

@Pango welcome!

Quite likely the last Hotbox show we'll see for a very long time. Aired last night...

Reading this headline is hard enough. I honestly cannot believe it... We couldn't have had a better person leading the fight for cannabis freedom in our country.... his departure leaves an immediate void that only he could fill. No one else was/has been willing to go as far as him and Myrtle have gone to ensure that we achieve the rights that we cannabis users deserve. It's because of him and Myrtle that we enjoy the rights that we now currently have, and they still continued to fight for more ... Jules we are forever indebted to the work you have done for us. YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN. RIP good man! https://www.dispatchlive.co.za/news/2020-07-03-dagga-activist-julian-stobbs-fatally-shot-in-armed-robbery/ As for this country... I lose faith day by day...

Hi DamDave Unfortunately the classifieds are not available on Tapatalk anymore. The Classifieds board you have been trying to post to is being phased out and is not taking any further submissions. That is the most likely cause for the failed upload. We now have a dedicated Classifieds area HERE but you will need to access it on your phone's browser and not Tapatalk.

I can't prove it with any chemical analysis but I wouldn't trust their gas as being impurity free. Newport claims to be almost impurity free so even their butane isn't 100% impurity free but it's the best on our local market for the purpose. If you're not using a vacuum chamber then you're putting yourself at even more risk. All those impurities have a decent chance of ending up in your lungs unfortunately. From face value Alva is a low end, relatively cheap butane available in SA, I wouldn't trust it personally. Don't panic though, who knows it may be good enough, but for peace of mind I would just stick with Newport from now on. At least they claim its almost impurity free. The other butane suppliers in this country don't.

All Regular. Fem's coming soon

@Newbe_2020 please follow the steps @TheUltimateNoob suggests above. Will get you to the site.
