I am so happy I could just wet myself, I have ten babies from bag seed, I will be happy if I get 3 females from it, and on the way from Amsterdam are my special seeds, 10 Ganja Dwarf / lowrider, and 20 pack of a nice variety of stunk and haze. I love growing weed, I have my own potent buds, and I don't have to pay $60 a 1/4 for some middes. The money saved alone is well worth the effort. Plus I pull the males, hate seedy pot, I grew two females to buds the summer before, my first time ever, and I was really amazed how easy it really was. I will keep you all updated. Love growing:hippy:

I will sure will keep you updated on the lowryders, I am too interested in the potency of the bud. Should be getting my seeds soon, and will update as soon as they hit the soil.

advice: don't waste your time with ruderalis, if you're going to grow, grow the real thing ... Breeding tips | Cannabis Culture Magazine (http://www.cannabisculture.com/articles/2600.html) (scroll down to the Ruderalis section) by D.J. Shorts, master breeder ... good luck with whatever you grow :thumbsup:

I can't agree with that at all. I've read the article to. Saying that it's a waste of time to mess with AF strains is ridiculous. That's like assuming that everybody wants to grow bud for the same exact reasons you do.

I just want to grow them so I dont have to wait 5 months for a decent smoke. That can't hurt can it? Not everybody that grows AF strains is a breeder and wants to breed them. Not everyone wants to pump out 250g per plant of the most dank nug all the time and some ppl dont even have the resources to do so. Theres a time and place for everything.

I understand its just friendly advice but take into consideration that everybody grows for different reasons and not everyone wants the same thing.

Really? Don't humans strive for perfection, corn, beans, max yields? You wanna get the most out of an investment I would think. Not arguing the AF strains, just that statement.

what I really specifically meant was some people dont have the resources to do so. I read that and saw how it could be taken but just didnt bother changing. Of course, if you could why wouldn't you want to.

and of course you want to get the most out of an investment but at the same time with AF strains you don't even have to invest as much into it. You save time & money.

I would have to say clones over AF. Never grown an Af before, imagine it would be fun. How long does it take before it actually starts to flower? Clones also save time and money!

Ruderalis: myth and misnomer

As indoor growers attempted to improve their genetic lines via breeding, another interesting phenomenon occurred: Ruderalis. Although there is a wild variety identified as Ruderalis in Russia ("Ruderalis" is supposedly Russian for "by the side of the road") that grows very short and matures very fast, I seriously doubt the rumor that someone actually went to Russia to collect seeds of this variety sometime in the past. Or, if someone actually did go all the way to Russia to find, collect and smuggle "rudy" seeds, I do feel sorry for their waste of time. They could have gotten the same worthless thing from Minnesota, Saskatchewan or Manitoba with much less hassle.

Agreeable wit tha sotapop, But in the sota they is alot of Ruderalis here because rich people at one time was farming hemp. But some Ruderalis in the sota is pretty potent, But i must say that majority of it now is garbage. This has happen due to the state, when they find theses plants in big parks with woods/W/e. They pray theses plants with some kind of chemical which destroys the thc. And it also makes its seeds useless.:rastasmoke::jointsmile: But you still find some that will have you floating. "But it is hard to find but also will have its use since it is adapted to the climate here...":D

I am just growing for my own personal use, the AF are for some bud to tie me over till my big girls are done. If I get more than a 1/4, I have broke even. I pay $60 for what they tell me is mid, but it always have seeds, and my person who does it takes at least $5-$10 and I just know he is also taking some off my bag. But he is the only person I know at this time, so I am screwed, I thought I will try to grow my own so I can have a personal supply without the cost and seeds. So either way the AF will be cost saver, weed I am not paying money for some seedy, half gone bags. No one knows I smoke and I need to grow sleuth,I can't have ten big ones in my back yard, but I can hide at least 5 or 6 and the AF I can put in areas where they won't be noticeable. I keep my entire grow to myself, never never sell it or give it away, since only one person knows I smoke and that person has ripped me off plenty, so this is my big old secret. :hippy:

Well alot of mids have seeds. With mids. you are buying better quality than schwag when you cant get nugz/dro. But theses dealers have been selling really good schwag for mids. And if you think he is pinching your bag i would have said something to him. And if he really is than that tells you he playing middle man on you and does not have it himself or has very little green.:jointsmile:

He is the middle man, I know this since I am the one that drives him to pick up my stuff. He makes some money this way, which never use to bother me, but I do favors also for him, and get nothing for it. I know he overcharges me and also takes from my bag, so when I lay down $60, I never get a full 1/4. I am sick of it, and know damn well I am getting ripped off, so I will grow my own stash. I hate being in this position, but not knowing anyone else limits my choices.
