IC Meet up during HTCC

Some folks that I met that paid for the HTCC passes were quite happy with
their purchase. What they told me that they do, after making a mistake last
year, they went only to the coffeeshops that give the free samples of their
HTCC cannabis and/or entries, and also give free gifts, and some like The
Greenhouse United gave even free breakfast, which is quite cool.

And the rest of the time they hang out mostly at the Powerzone during the day,
and in Melkweg in the evening. They even said that just the performers that
they saw at Melkweg were worth the price of their judges passes.

Jamie, that showed the Bij, and Borejongers CS, and a let sample few unique
NL/Haze buds...big respects to you. This was an excellent way to start
working on my low tolerance :laughing:

And to many other folks that openly shared their gear, during these crazy days,
and that shared many crazy stories that I only hear when I am in NL.

As far as taking sides when it comes to GH and Mr. Nice Seeds, it is mostly
between people that either support Arjan or Shantibaba, and if you look in
reality, neither Arjan or Shantibaba have that much of a problem between
each other, because they are creating seeds that they are selling to people.

They don't come into this forum and have a go at each other openly, because
they really have better things to do in their lives.

It is just that they have chosen different paths to walk. Arjan chose the
coffeeshop chain/fem seed company, and Shantibaba chose the seed
company without feminized seeds and without coffeeshops.

This means that they are aware of their own personalities, and their strengths
and weaknesses and they concentrate on those things that they are really
good at.

So in the end they are both moving toward end results that are important
to them, and I don't really see the sense in the arguments that most people
have with each other about these two seed companies, and the two people
that are behind them. But that's me.

I always like sitting in coffeeshop Greenhouse United, and like how I am
treated by the staff and have exchanged a few words with both Arjan and
Franco, and they are very good business people, just like Soma, for example.

And one day I look forward to growing genetics from MNS, because I like
Neville's Haze and Super Silver Haze a lot, and want to grow these seeds
in the future as soon as I have the chance, especially considering that
MNS seems to have started to put these seeds out on a regular basis.

Anyway, in the end I just want to say, that we all have the same passion,
and I think it's better if we support each other, instead of taking sides and
trying to say who's genetics are better or worse. Instead you can grow them
out and make a decision for yourself, but as far as trying to take sides and
convince people that something is better or worse, it is not the best
approach, because the end-goal that we all want is for cannabis to be
legal in every part of the world, and to accomplish this we must all stick
together and do everything that we can to make this a reality.

have you heard yourselfs sounding like little bitches moaning about greenhouse , seed companys are businesses you know? (i dont particularly love greenhouse or there practices) this trend to slate greenhouse is a joke even alll the gimpy people who have never grown greenhouse are coming out the woodwork , some of the breeders that you respect are nothing but herm breeding pollen chuckers, i have grown a few diffrent strains now and lemon skunk stands up to most of them and i havent even finished super lemon haze and i know that it is something special compared to the rest of the garden , all you greenhouse haters need to stop sucking dick ,,, you remind me of school when someone influential or tuff makes a statement and the masses jump on it like a golden dick

I can see what you are trying to say, but your post is quite aggressive,
for this forum, and imo in real life you would have problems saying these kinds
of things in most people's faces (greenhouse haters), don't forget that you
are posting in the internet, but behind each computer there is a real person
and he/she has the right to his/her opinion to be heard without agressive
comments being made in their address.

and in reality, based on what you have written you are continuing to fuel
this conflict between the supporters of GHS and MNS by attacking the
people that support MNS and do not support GHS for some reason.

At least that is what your post actually accomplishes, when all is said and
done!

S Florida - I read a while ago about you getting to AMS... First year I missed out in a few, but I am GLAD you are there...!!!!

Find a good pheno in ANY seedpack, and you are stoked.... Rather rare...


Sounds like a Blast (except for the typical weather) maybe next year.

Cheers..!!

Hey South... you're very welcome mate... hope your trip was a great one :)

Guys, no one is currently talking about MNS vs GHS. Lets keep it that way. The discourse in the thread reffers to the HTCC and how its judging is formatted.


cheers

Fair play Chizzle :) I'm a big MNS fan meself, but what I find is 98% of the GHS haters havent got a clue, don't even grow, 1% are just bitter and 1% probably have a good point .. ;)


I like Pepsi, he likes Coke.... but if there's wasnt a choice I'd be as pissed off as the next guy :)

what can i do

what can i do

so you are saying that about 0.65 gram of 1 gram of weed she bought was seeds? if that happened you should have gone straight back to the dealer with those 26 seeds. i hope she did that
to be fair... she couldnt wait to sell them to her friends... she was ok with the seeds.... i was laughin so hard.... but she was happy, so what can i do!
I personally was totally discusted, it was so unexpected.... I didnt buy anything.... but im sure it was sensimilla on the menu!

I wonder how many of the smokers vomit after grinding up seeds????? poor buggers:santa1:

I bought the Indica Mix H, and so did my pall.... My lemon was beautiful.... the rest were ok... but my pall got a Trainwreck in his seeds, which was amazing....10 times stronger than the cheese. my Trainwreck was boring tho.
I suppose thats the thing with mix seeds..... you still have the same amout of chance in getting a good mother out of 10 seeds....but she can be in any or the mix strains!
in my case it was the lemon, in my palls case it was the trainwreck! BUT they were both beautiful! much much much better than what they had for sale in there shop in dam:santa1:

Thx for the tip on Boerejongens. I was there on the weekend. Walked for an hour to get there, but found decent breakfast on the way.

I got some SSH that looked and smelled GREAT, but was slightly too wet for my liking. I also got some Hawaiian Haze that was a nicer, cleaner high, so I ended up smoking mostly it. Not as good looking or smelling, but a clean tasty smoke. ~9.5euro for each seems a decent prize for Amsterdam.
