Just got my order from DC seed exchange, 1st time ordering from there, and I think it was Thursday when I ordered them.
Got Hazemans Chocolate Thai and Headband.

But I was just sitting here thinking about how awesome it is, that far everything has progressed so far.
Just think back 10 years ago, when ordering seeds, which came exclusively overseas and everything passed through customs. Paying for it was a pain the ass, having to trust your cash made the week long journey to your trustworthy seed broker, and then up to a few weeks of angst while waiting. Even when you saw it cleared customs, you still had to be nervous it wasn't just a letter coming. Even when ordering overseas now, being able to order Attitude and pay with Zelle is huge, plus they're stealth shipping using random item is Top-Notch!

I was just thinking, this is pretty awesome.
Now, Time to get a few of each of these in the dirt.

My first seed order was in 2002 from kind seeds out of Canada. At the time they had the inside cover of High Times as the ad space.

Sent in a money order and waited like 6-8 weeks never knowing if my mo made it or not. Then after I forgot about it I got a small card in the mail, size of a wedding invitation.

Was like, "who the fuck I know in Canada?"

Mind you I had it sent to my parents crib and opened it up in front of them and was like oops nothing to see here... lol

Fun times

I could imagine that happening.
I was always nervous someone else would get the mailbox before I would, and there would be a green letter hanging out a torn open package with a foreign address. I had a couple packages opened, but never got the confiscation letter thankfully
