[Jack Saturn]

Howdy Folks,
First post on this really homey,and very informed Forum,feel as though I had come through time,like 50 years ago.I see all these references to weed.I mean I know Columbian Gold,Panama Red,Dirt Weed and Homegrown(spongey,bright green stuff),but this"Purple haze H-2 strain 1 from H2O seeds"and all this other stuff is like Greek to me.I been tokin for 35 years,just took about 8-10 years off(drug tests,home and job pressures,finances,Get It?)Came back to the Bud 5-6 weeks ago and have been very lucky ,so far,to hook up with a good source,but after seein this Forum,I feel like I don't know S___!
Does anyone have a "POT 101 for year 2005" reference or site?Thank you.

Hi ...and welcome.I know how you feel.What I did was everytime I heard of something I never heard of.I google the name of that strain plus the word cannabis.So for example "Blue Moonshine cannabis".

Hey Jack,
I know exactly what you mean, I've smoking since around 1967 when pot came in $10 baggies (hence my name). Over the years I've been buying skunk from up in Northern California and thought that was the only kind there was until I came on the internet and discovered a whole new world.
Currently I'm growing some of Doc Chronic's MP5K and cant wait for harvest time!

Just type in a strain or look by breeder. Awesome pics and detailed grows on lots.

LOL....Memories! Nickle, Dime, Ounce...5,10, and 15 bucks. Quarter pounds for $45!

Notice though how much the price of weed has gone up since then but Cola is still the same price!

Welcome back Jack...another way I learn about strains is to go around the seedbanks...the better ones will have history of breeding, similar to dog pedigree...hope this helps
