Jack is right, genetics determines the quality and how frosty the buds have the potential to become. You can definitely take some Mexibrick, give the plants some TLC, and end up with product better than what was originally mass-produced... but genetics are still going to determine just how potent it will become. If you want to grow some buds like you see on the cover of High Times, it's time to invest in some quality genetics.

Take care. :jointsmile:
