Hello you lot.

Seeds.. OK, make of this what you will - possibly bad luck? There's a new supplier in the UK, "Just Feminised", (nothing to do with sex change,) Oh, sorry, that's "Just Feminized" for all you English Language murdering Yanks out there. I purchased five Femin-choose-your-own-spelling, Auto-flowering seeds which did exactly that: They were feminine, and they did flower automatically. Grown outdoor in the heat of the Bulgarian early summer, they leaped to their total heights of between 12 to 17cm and flowered - the bastards.

OK, I've got a few neat-pipes out of the exercise but if that's what Auto-flowering causes, sod that.

Never again.

'Moaned by email and got sent five more, non-Auto-flowering seeds of a different 'Breed' supplied to Just Femin-choose-your-own-spelling, by Barney's Farm, plus two more seeds at a Moan generated 30% discount and one ‘Free Seed’. Hooray!

As it's happened, however, in addition to not being being Auto-flowering, it's transpired they are also of the not sprouting variety and of the eight seeds received, just two sprouted and, below, cut from one of my recent emails, more on the subject..


"Last week a disaster befell one of the only two ‘Special’ plants to have sprouted from a total of eight seeds, (obviously some sort of rip-off.) Godfrey, (bless Him) saw fit to conjure up a few hours of gusting wind and have a short length of branch with three plums attached, hurl itself out of one of my nearby fruit trees and, incredibly, of all the places it could have landed, made a direct hit on one of the plants which, when I went out to water it the following evening, I found flat against the soil under the branch and it's still weak stalk ruined via a 90 degree bend. I straightened it up and supported it but it expired two days later. Godfrey does move in mysterious ways, you know.

And whilst on that subject, I just wish He’d move mysteriously to all the other dimensions and stay there, the Git. This, of course, given the latest modification to the Standard Model care of current theoretical physics, would mean all the other Laurie Dignums in all the other infinite number of universes would, (if they’re not doing so already,) all enjoy inexplicably shitty episodes one after the other, ad finitum: OK, yes – episodes lacking in any real magnitude, but just unpleasant enough and sufficiently regular to render all their lives as frustrating and disappointing as my own.

Ha! take that, infinite Dignums!

I realise the possibility of there being any more than one Dignum, let alone an infinite number of them may have caused you some distress, for which, I apologise."

So, bad luck, bad Karma, bad breath - who can tell?


Me? I'll not be buying again this year due to the possibly of cold-snaps occurring at Harvest Time and Spring 2014, no surprises here, yes indeed, I'll be purchasing from another supplier – Hey, maybe someone who's had some consistent success in growing Mass Brain Cell eradicating - High Yield plants grown outdoor might like to supply me with the contact info of their supplier?

Can’t be arsed? Cuh! What else should I expect from a bunch of degenerate, unwashed, marijuana crazed addicts, for all of whom, death’s just too good, and should all have their testicles punted with sufficient gusto to have them arc around backward in a blur of motion and come to rest on their owner’s shoulders, attractively, like a pair of wrinkly epaulettes, (one slightly larger than the other, though,) and even if they’re female.

And, in closing, I apologise, to all Americans reading this, for any spelling accuracy herein and to anyone offended by what you may perceive as blasphemy, please don't post any indignant ripostes, believe me, I've heard, and either laughed at, or ignored them all.

Here-th endeth the first-eth Lesson-eth.

p.s. don’t attempt to say this out loud if you’re wearing dentures or eating soup – or both.

Thanks for sharing - I've just finished checking out seed-city.com's site and will be ordering from them next Spring. The feminised 1024 Medicinal sounds bloody marvelous having high physical and THC yield - too good to be true? Maybe - I'll let you know next year - Watch this space, (not the one between my ears). This response brought to you from a tiny village in sunny Bulgaria where men are men and, if appearances are anything to go by, so are the women.

e.g. we held a village beauty competition last year and nobody won.


After some discussion, however, the trophy was eventually awarded to a sheep.

(Quite a pretty one, though, it has to be said).
