Mexican sativas have some wonderful genetics that are often over looked. How do expect weed to look and taste when it is improperly dried, not cured, squished into bricks, and wrapped in plastic.
It could end up being an okay product......I'd still rather smoke my homegrown, but some people aren't willing to go thru the work involved in growing their own.

If you had the money would you invest a couple million $ in a mexican grow? I wouldn't even be looking beyond the border of california to find a farm that already knew what the hell they were doing and wouldn't need to be taught shit.

Is there a perfect place to grow on the islands? Like Humboldt in CA

Each Island has a micro climate that is ideal for cultivation, but the thing that really matters is the skill of the grower.

Eh BTW you on the East Coast of the West? (Next time I travel maybe we can hook up and have and have a couple of beers or something)

If you're making edibles the key is to decarboxylase your material first, this converts THCA in to THC, otherwise your edibles will have very little psychoactive properties to it, I've processed edibles both ways, for those who do not want a psychoactive product don't decarb the material, THCA by itself is analgesic, this is good for people who have pain they'd like to relieve without getting toasted.

My back yard lol Why you moving back to the islands Mo. Looks like you have adapted to southern Ca very well and the plants grow bigger over there but the weed is stronger here due to the UV band in my not so humble opinion.

NYCD is crossed with Mexican sativa, and the accolades for NYCD speak from them self. The problems with the smuggled in Mexican is the way the cartels process (or lack there of) the weed. The key to any breeding program is "Selection" if you grow enough of any strain you'll eventually find desirable traits

What kind of LED are you using 808killahz? I've been considering investing in a set but theres just too many on the market to sift through to find out what works well.

After doing some research I decided to go straight to the china manufacture. Bysen LEDs. They make Helios which is basically the same light as the raptor, magnum plus2, apollo etc. Basically all these guys buy relabled leds from this company in china. They can customize spectrums to your liking or you can just go with theirs. Its up to you. However you pay a little more to customize it. So instead of buying these over priced LEDs ($1200) I got mine straight from china for about half price ($600) shipped... I have the 420w led. This light was super bright and super intense. I keep the light about 30-36 inches from the canopy. Any closer and you will start to burn tips. Overall great so far in vegging. I was really hesitant to try LEDs out due to the huge up front cost but when I was able to get it for half price I said screw it and gave it a shot... we will see if it pays off.

Keep us posted man! I've never messed with LEDs, should be interesting to see how they perform in flower.

Here is some of the Blue Lotus from Bodhi. They're tripping on the current photo period, they don't like the 11 hour dark period, they've kinda stated to re-veg heading into the summer solstice, no biggie more plant=more bud.

B-Dawg,

I know this isn't what you ordered, but i found her in the Metro, I'll have to starve a for a bit to get her nice and skinny.

National Monument with an exoskeleton around it while its being repaired from earthquake damage, fucking thing is more crooked than Bill Clinton's penis (according to Monica Lewinsky's testimony)

You can lead a horse to water, but don't expect it to drink bum piss from a fountain, the government is so broke they won't offer up fresh water for their police horses...i was waiting for the horse to throw a buck'n bronco show as a form of protest...lol

Everything else you'd expect to see in D.C.

I requested a meeting with Fudge but i had to reschedule with him, I had more important things to do like kidnap a chicken-head for B-Dawg. Actually she willingly jumped into my suitcase for a $20 rock...lol
