Also sad to know that our government were spraying poison so haphazardly for 18 years. Where's the commission on that? 

Its a deep , dark  and sad story, and there should be a follow up to it, people/animals and land were taken advantage of. It feels like my catalyst, the guy who fought on the ground is sleeping on the other side of the house currently, I drink ( accidently ) with the guy who used to refuel those choppers and host them at the bottom of the Umzimvubu, we have had a couple debates, polar opposites. I gave this badge to Jules and Myrtle one night when they were about to go to sleep, you should have heard them when it landed on their bed. I think we had a coffee and another joint.  https://www.instagram.com/p/BeuaDXaAAlr/

The whole operation was funded by the CIA that are in South Africa !!!!

Dagga Couple and the Dagga Party, coupled with social media put that BS to an end.

 

 

 

It was Simon Strainhunter on the ground, a surfer journalist and the might of the DC / FOGFA that put the nail in the coffin for this operation. It was a huge internationally funded operation and took place in Natal, Mpumulanga and down here in Pondoland. It also happened cross border, from Mpumulanga to Swaziland. Amazing what a handful of activists did and accomplished through the power of media. 

Below are the latest two episodes, so what you guys think of this documentary? 
 

Some pictures taken by Simon yesterday with Natie from Qure.co.za

Sorry to hear that, but if you were not using it, its not a big loss. Hopefully oneday these companies will allow cannabis companies to advertise and publish like the rest. I dont know of any recent page deletions, but I get community warnings every few months, on both IG and FB. Because of these companies policies, cannabis brands pages can be deleted at any given moment. no recourse. I have had a couple FB pages deleted, been shadow banned for a couple years and get the regular community warnings. I had a youtube channel around 2010 taken down, it was making some decent money off it, about 7500 subscribers, got 3 content warnings over the course of 2 months, woke up one morning. DELETED!  Dagga Party also had a big loss when their FB page ( 50k likes )  was hacked, taken over by a some some idiots and had to start again. FB was not interested in restoring rightful ownership. 

Wishing you all the best for 2022, happy growing y'all. 

I can recommend that Medicinal Plant book, its unreal, want a copy myself. I went to a remote farm last week, saw it on the kitchen table and could not stop reading it, it has everything in there, EVERYTHING. Funny enough going to that same farm this morning. The woman who lives there only leaves once a month, as its very remote, roads are difficult to drive even in a 4x4. She used to work at this unreal healing place down the drag from me. 

Happy xmas to all of you to. Cheers to a productive 2022.

Never heard of those guys before, but they're pretty cool. Will have a listen to more of their stuff sometime.

 If you listen to their music you will know they have worked with some big labels. Interesting characters. Enjoy.

Nobody wants to grow landraces. 

Mostly everyone, but for decades people have looked after, shared and grown landrace seeds from remote places. They change in appearance, unstable and a bitch to grow. 

Quote

even around the 15:00 mark in this video a literal seasoned mountain growing Guru tells Arjan Roskam straight to his face "we have lost the local landrace"... just let that sink in for a second

Watch that part again, listen to Arjan sniff and go hmmmm,OK. Watch it again. Ruben is one of the top growers in that region of PSJ, and great musician, good man. Grows some of the dankest bud I have ever seen.

I do not understand the infatuation some people have with landrace cannabis strains...  

Its exciting to grow something unique, especially our landrace in SA. The world is looking at our local landrace because of the high prevalence of THCV, unique to our part of the world. I think studies have been done about this since the early 80's, but everyone was mostly focused on THC. 

Quote

there is a easily accessible online archive that has all the highest regarded landraces that "eeeeeeeveryone is looking for" in storage, ready to go at the click of a button 

I wish it was that easy for people, there are online catalogues, but only a couple that have done the real work and documented their findings. Sadly these seeds are not available with a click of a mouse button. 

Great discussion, opinions and debate. Have you guys seen the online debate taking place on Facebook, about biopiracy, stealing landrace and how GHS has no integrity, how do you feel about that?

 

There are still another 2 series of this documentary coming soon. Enjoy. 

Posting this new potumentary here. Been speaking loads about landrace with Simon and I have a feeling something interesting is going to happen in the new year. Pull up a chair, light up a spliff and enjoy. 
 

Here we go guys, its available on youtube. Landrace is here in South Africa, in our valleys. Enjoy. 

heading to Durbs in a couple hours, wondering if you guys can recommend a couple decent joints around Durbs that I could go to. I am going to try and get to Bobbys' Bohemian beachbums spot on Florida Road. Anything else? 

Just got of the hola with Jayden from fullmeltfiltration.co.za, he has metres of good quality screens, mesh. Might be worthwhile sending a message. 

A couple of us bought some clones from quickbuyngrow.co.za , weekend before last, got my hands on herijuana and mate bought blue dream. Lank excited about having herijuana. Contact them and see if they deliver, they in PE. 

Was just rumminging through some old boxes and found this picture. I think this Pic was taken around 2000. How is that tree in the background, 13ft plus? And the game in the background was from cannabis culture, designed and developed by Dana Larsen from Canada. He was also one of the foreigners who took Durban Poison back over the seas to Canada.

I'd kill to get my hands on anything from Bodhi atm

Bodhi and collaborations was mentioned in this podcast last night. Snowhigh was also mentioned, two of my top breeders. Love their work. My all time favorite is the strain, Pipe Dream. The owner of Fullmelt used to toke on it during his student days!!!

Busted by my mother, I moved the plant to a mates place, got busted by his mother too, but did manage to harvest the plant

Quite a funny story. I did not have a drivers license then, but managed to fill a carboot of harvested stems. Took it home, dear mothers car was reeking. So spoke with a local rasta I knew, he quick dried them on his zinc roof. We hit some bottle necks and joints of good homegrown, and then I got busted again. 

Grew my first plant in 1994, a "biology experiment", actually tried to grow it under a light. Busted by my mother, I moved the plant to a mates place, got busted by his mother too, but did manage to harvest the plant. It was my first successful harvest. I think i might have started growing earlier than that,I did try and grow some weed in braamfontein spruit next to REEA nursery, just below their compost heaps.  When I was still at school an older mate rented a cottage with a mini hothouse in it, there were about 50 seedlings in there before he even got his bed into the cottage. Indoor growing,  I think my festish was growing in ceilings though, started around 2000, lots of places in JHB have wooden planks in their ceilings for my grow room. I think I started that around 2002. 

I might enjoy smoking my bush zol, but I have heard of the verities, never the breeder. Mutant X, local is lekker, grammar sux. 

That is correct, see on the package mutantx.coza, checking them out now. 

Thanks bud. Yip a huge drinking culture here. Yeah the babootie is good at the Pig, I enjoy it. The pig is the place where old pilots used to drink, funny enough still lots of up and coming pilots go there. 

Bought a couple single seeds from Quickbuyngrow.co.za, brand was Mutant Genetics. Scored blue cheese, gelato and cream caramel. Never heard of them before and giving them as a present to a friend of mine looking to grow fire.
