He's very much a sativa kinda guy. He likes to talk genetics & cannabis history. Very devoted to landraces & preserving their existence. If you read his grow thread from beginning to end, you'll get a mini history lesson. You'll see the different traits of different landraces & begin to dishtinguish their presence in various hybrids we have today. You'll learn to appreciate their existence & come to hope for their preservation as well. If you go over ther (& I hope you do), don't forget to also read the history of Mr Nice Seed. I think you'll be surprised by who've you've found! I know I was! My thread "Old school genetics" has a bit of history lessons inbeded in it as well, but what I intended as a discussion, aimed at us old heads teaching our history to the younguns, nearly became a heated debate! Another thing they have that would appeal to you guys is..... P.M.s!!!! Yeah! & you'll be suprised by who else you'll find over there! I'd never leave cann.com, or suggest anybody else leave either, but I have both forums, plus one based in Canada, & another that has contests I like to follow. But anybody who joins MNS will be glad they did. Other than the P.M.s, not much different than here. Just a different spot with new friends to meet! Not all forum boards are friendly! I've tried some where even the mods jump on the new kid, kinda like high school. On one of them, one of the mods told me women had no place on these forums, to go back to the kitchen where I belonged! Another mod deleted his post that were derogatory to women, sent me an apology in a pm, but I don't post there or even read posts, just go straight to the contests. Personally, THAT forum board does us no justice. If someone in the ANTI-legalization movement wanted dirt to use against us, that would be their 'go to' board. Its crude & 2/3s of it should be xxx rated. Sorry about that rant. Just wanted to point out how sweet it is to be a member of Cann.com & MNS. THIS is where the 'good people' are. & I'm proud to be a part of both!
-- Sometimes you just want to say something that you don't want to put on the open forum & you really need PMs. But I really want you guys to check out the above mentioned; Scrubdog & the history of MNS. RANGER.... PMs?
Funny thing that is a little off topic-

I tried to follow your link to MNS forums- my server would not let me see it- or anything remotely attached to it. I spent about 2 hours trying to find a back door ( through the duck duck go search engine)- then finally went to Start Page by powered by google ( but supposedly just as private) and it went directly thereā?¦.

Love this thread Cat- thank you so much for all of the info and stories- I hope I get to meet you and some of the others one day - my partner just signed up for this forum and he loves your posts too! Just thanks for putting so much on the line to help others!
