Texas growers unite

Seedboutique order here in 9 days with no problems and freebies. Skunk also sent some freebies.

man, im by the general DFW area, and the last 3 orders i placed with seedboutique got intercepted. got a nice empty package with nothin but the dreaded customs letter attached.
needless to say i dont order seeds anymore...i make em with whatever strains i managed to secure before it got sketchy.

any ideas on this? i know this aint the thread for it, but im in texas, think i made the smart choice to never order again? damn there's so many new strains i want...but fuck anything sketchy ya know.
peace

p.s...this is partially me just venting, so no worries

I had been thinking about this and it may very well be the area you and the other people live in. I am a good ways south of Houston in a predominantly white collar area. Nothing happens here and thats a good thing I guess. I think maybe Austin, DFW and Houston are most likely watched fairly close. This is the 5th time I have ordered and they all got here. Neither of these were very stealth in my opinion. Both were in white Tyvek envelopes with airmail postage. I knew what they were in the middle of 20 other pieces of mail the minute I saw them. Maybe try shipping to a bud that lives in a rural area.

I agree with the fact that the "stealth" that is used by our vendors is far from stealth. I could train a monkey to pick these envelopes out of a tray of mail. The "uberstealth" is a little better, but not by much.

word shiggs and spackler, yall are right on. its so discouraging to not feel comfortable ordering somethin you want/need so bad! it leaves temptation battling your sense of security.

and yeah, dfw and screwston are a lot more criminal areas, so who knows maybe shippin to a rural friend's a good idea, thanks man.
peace

Well, gentleman. I put 3 of my 4 plants into flower on the 11th and have almost all of my materials together to finally build my big cab. All I'm missing is the wood and a much bigger light, Im thinking a 400 should get the job done perfectly (75.18 watt/sqft).

I'll try to get some pics up loaded, so you can see my ghetto ass temp closet set up.

, so you can see my ghetto ass temp closet set up.

the bud tastes just as sweet

 

[shiggs]

true.

mini update.

I dropped 5 SSH seeds in a glass of water on top of my DVR Wednesday 24 hours later 4 of the 5 had popped and the fifth was popped this morning. All of them are going/gone into little dixie cups with FFOF, under a 45 watt CFL.

shiggs...I have a question..your SSH, are they regular or femm, did they have the color coating on them?

 

[casualtoker]

Hey guys, just wanted to drop by and say I'm still around. Haven't been on the forums recently, but all is good! Finished up a couple grows this summer and basically have been stoned 24x7 since then. Thinking about starting up a winter grow if I can get some decent clones.

Good Morning Texas

What a great weekend here in centex

I added a new lady to my harem, a C99 from THC. We had an exciting ride home and she is getting along very well with her new bff. I plan to mother her and should have some cuts as soon as she gets old enough.

Again, thanks to THC for the cut, an organization living its' mission!

you should try a bubble cloner growdaddy. simple to make and maintain and very effective.






ive been running this bagseed strain for about a year and a half using the same cloner, roots every time. (old pics)

looks damn good keeko

Hey Guys whats up. This thread makes me feel at home. Wheres all the TRC gear? Haha This is a Texas Thread. So hows this THC thing get down. Share the gene pool type stuff?

Man as far as cloning goes have have stuck with rapid rooters and olivias and have had about a 99.5% sucess rate.

Purple Kush x Sour Diesel Day 40


And might as well throw up some c99's also at day 40

shiggs...I have a question..your SSH, are they regular or femm, did they have the color coating on them?

They are reg/standard non-sexed seeds. I've got one that's poked it's head above the dirt and is a happy little sun worshiper. The rest are being a little lazy.




Keeko, that is a beautiful purple plant.

Is that going to be a THC strain?

 

[cemchris]

has anybody checked out texas resin company? or know the story of how the guy (lonestar) got caught? is texas kid still re-releasing TRC seeds?

Yes I believe thats in the works. Lonestar did get popped but last I heard Hes getting through it. Still got some TRC gear floating around.

 

[shiggs]

Never heard of them. Any info you would like to provide?
