did i mention Capt Crip is a thoroughly nice bloke

 

[Guest]

So did the footage get deleted then or did she walk out with the camera and footage intact?

Thumper had the camera with him, I think he brought it into the coffeeshop with him.

I had forgotten about the video camera until someone mentioned the DNA debacle.

The first time I met A of DNA was at the Uk Hemp Expo last year, he really ragged on Gypsy and DG, and I didn't bring up the subject, seems he has a real bee in his bonnet about Gypsy and DG, he also had some nasty things to say about Soma, I don't care about his beefs with people, none of my business. At the time I was chatting to Shantibaba and Marco Renda, I just happened to be sat next to the DNA fellas.

Same thing at the 420 cup, I just happened to be sat where I was chatting to Truecannabliss and Karma Genetics and A sat down at the end seat of our table, next to me. Twice I've met the guy, twice I've found myself hearing lots of negativity from him, both times it wasn't the kind of stuff I like to hear or am interested in.

I don't have a problem at all with DHA but in future I'll make sure I don't sit next to them, I hate negativity! Sure, there may be heat between Gypsy, DG and DNA, but to bring that negativity to the Cup where it could spoil the great time a lot of good people are having is downright inconsiderate and disrespectful when it boils down to it. Regardless of the rights and wrongs of whatever went down, it is wrong to bring the issue to the Cup. I question why A chose to come to the Cup when he did, if he just wanted to meet folks, hang out, chat about ganja, smoke some buds, then he had all weekend to do that, he could have invited folks to come to the shop, but he chose to turn up for the awards ceremony and to me, that shows he wanted to create some disruption.

Hazy is right, Capt. Crip is a thoroughly nice bloke, so is smokey, ojd, mrhaze, lots of guys, in fact, everyone I met was nice, A was nice to me, we chatted about his Pure Afghan line. What that gathering was all about was nice people hanging out together, as others have said in this thread, the cup was secondary to the social aspects. Shame there was a crumb of nasty among all the nice.

Time to let sleeping dogs lie now, no-one got hurt, the awards weren't really disrupted, everyone had a great time, so all in all a giant success, let's not get caught up on the negative bits, whether it be about elite clones or seed co politics. I just hope that video doesn't turn up somewhere with my face (or any other icmagger's face) in it!

Thanks for the heads up on that Vid Ganja / Hempire. Must be different than the one DG just mentioned as I missed the evening awards. I'm guessing your talking about the afternoon.

Like yourself & Bulldog I wouldn't be happy if it made it into the public domain, as my image etc.. is on record. Will need to do some checking into this does anyone have a direct route to those responsible or would a complaint to the GHU about their own rules being broken give the the incentive to twist some arms.

As for those beatching (including mods) in this thread about reasons for why they are the greatest give it a rest. This thread should celebrate those who did turn up & gave some serious pro's a run for their money along with others who only had samples but proved very capable growers that if had made it would have stood every chance of placing. If you weren't there then no matter how much you shout you still aint king bud. If you feel the need put it up next year & we will see what you actually have to offer.

DG, GN, OldPink & all others it may be lost in a load of bs but thanks for a great party & look forward to next year.

Hope someone threw her camera on the floor and asked her never to return :wink:

Anyhow (not counting Growdoc) it is time one of the LGA entered the IC 420 cup

 

[Guest]

Neuro, I remember you were sat on the side of the CS where Gypsy and DG were, whether you were there when there was the sillyness with Thumper, Aaron and DG, I'm not sure, DG seemed to handle it really classy, I never paid attention, I just carried on chatting to Karma and Bear, but I think Dg and I are probably talking about the same video, I never saw a girl, but Thumper had a video camera, and he was usign it while DG was stood there with security and the GHS manager next to where Aaron was sat, and I would definitely be visible in Thumper's video.

 

[neuroherb]

That sounds a bit later after I left to get more smokeables & a munch. I'll have3 a trawl through You Tube this week though as thats where GHS videos tend to appear.

 

[AinSophAur]

Soma dominated. Good job.

i thought chemdog was a resivour indica? 9 week finish dosent scream sativa to me.

 

[ThirdEyeVision]

I'd say chem is a hybrid, and it's 'chem's' chem, not 'rez's' chem

Hi neuro,

I've just checked on youtube, and there's nothing there as yet.....I don't think whoever has the video(s) will be stupid enough to post them....that would be a BIG mistake....

Ciao

 

[truecannabliss]

There is no chance of that video seeing the light of day, everyone needs to realax.
Peace

Well it sounds like there's more than one video with our faces on, and how can you be so sure? Have you got the culprit(s) tied up and beating them as we speak? lol

 

[REZDOG]

Chemdog IS indica,NOT "sativa".
Arjan thinks that in order to sell to elitist growers he has to call everything "sativa".
If you watch the ghs "grow" video you'll see how much those guys really (don't) know about growing weed.
If you can watch that ghs "grow" video and still want to buy their seeds after seeing their "how-to" video,you obviously played in traffic with no helmet as a child-to greatly adverse effect.

I created a drinking/smoking/sex game called "Arjay Sez"-everytime he uses a superlative adjective (like "superlative",lolol!) you have to drink/hit bong/stick your partner/whatever.
His world-class,luke-warm,English-as-second-language adjectives flow like warm cheeze-whiz,it takes about five minutes to be drunk/baked/well-f*cked, arjay's hilarious adjectives keep flowing merrily,like a used car salesman's Vegas rap.
It's almost awe-inspiring,until you realize that the guy who made the video has enough money to use a decent camera and buy a legible English-language script,but prefers the (much) cheaper (and humiliating) alternative route-much to the amusement of millions on YouTube.

:smile:

Well, if true ain't bothered,. then I ain't bothered, it's me and true that were in the frame, true's a smart cat so I'll take his word.

Hey Rez, care to elaborate on what you don't like about the advice Arjan and Franco give in those vids?

 

[Capt. Crip]

Chemdog IS indica,NOT "sativa".
:

A-fucking-men!
As is the OGK's and the ECSD!r: Even though the ECSD carries some sativa traits it should not be classified as a sativa..
Nothing under 12 weeks flower should be considered for the sativa cup..But I'm dreamin'...

 

[REZDOG]

Hey Rez, care to elaborate on what you don't like about the advice Arjan and Franco give in those vids?

I couldn't stop laughing long enough to do a breakdown and commentary.
I have a less-grainy hard copy (thanks,Arjan!) I haven't seen the YouBoob dub,but tell ya what: you go watch it and see what data you agree with,and get back to me,howzzat?

The Sour D Clone runs 11-12 weeks,imVho FAR too long for an indica,though I agree it's got a smidge of indica in its profile.

 

[Capt. Crip]

Just my opinion on th ECSD...I understand that it does have a bell ringing high when grown right...The clusters are just too sqat and thick for me to consider her a sativa....Plus she has no equatorial sativa in her makeup..I guess mass SS has some but such a small amount..

But 1 of the best clones out there hands down(top 10)....Nothing stinks through an airtight container like well grown ECSD!Shit is uncontainable!!!

 

[British_Bulldog]

Well sorry Rez, but I don't enjoy your posts, and feel I should get some compensation for having read thousands of them over the years, lol

It's just your style, and it ain't pretty......just saying it how it is


Out

 

[British_Bulldog]

And Capt, thanks a lot for sharing some of the ECSD with me at the cup - you said it was taken a bit early, but it was still some primo herb, and much appreciated

I know I mixed it with the super-high-grade Nepalese hash....but I could resist! lol

That was probably one of the world's best joints, lol


Peace
