what a fuckin storey, jeez that makes me understand why columbians could be upset about people growing a plant in the US today. Even if there is little connection. damn prohibition
Personally though I am thinking more of just allowing the local genetics to get out there and be explored. I wouldn't even give the gear names. Just one variety available at the Boo... "Lumbo Bag Weed", period, sell it cheap so everyone can get a pack or two. From what you have all said, the local nug you smoke is heavily seeded, so you and a couple of your buds just save up your seeds from whatever local nugs you are smoking for a while, and find a way to get it to them over in Europe so we can buy them and work them ourselves. There are bound to be lot's of beauties in there that you and your buds will probably never have time to work and preserve...
I don't even think it would hurt your future business on the mountain top, in fact having those genetics out there would bring you a lot of good Karma, build your company a great rep, and a lot of folks would still love to come down and visit the homeland of all those great genetics and meet the folks who made them available... Just sayin'

Thanks Budman.. Can't speculate as to why nobody down there will address this, but it's getting awful quiet here, pretty fast.
Mr. Grimbo
In my case (I've sent some seeds out in the past) I have to get my family back on track with the whole MJ thing because things have changed since we went back to the USA for 4 years. When I was living here before my wife and her family didn't really see any harm in my plant loving and growing. However since we returned from the USA and my kids are older, the wife seems to think there's something really evil about the herb and doesn't want it around. I'm working on her and now she's agreed to letting me grow again but we have to move and due to our jobs it will be awhile. The other problem I have is in my absence I lost the few connections I had and I have been lucky enough to "reconnect" with two but only one fools with any of the old strains. My other guy is "out of town ATM" and I was told we would meet up early next year (January) and he is the guy that got all that great bud in 04-07. So I'm still getting very good Colombian but 99% of it is seedles. But if you will read some of my old posts and threads you will see some of the things I was working on and what I plan to strat up again. It's just a matter of time before the fine lumbo of the past is back in town.
Peace from Colombia!
Oh, sure I appreciate the work folks have done and I know Canabiogen and a couple others have some great Colombian and Jamacian gear out there, worked out well but I would like to get a crap load of Your local bagweed seed, and sort through it myself... even if it took me a few years I think it would be fun, and like Budman said, I bet there is a lot of great stuff in those bags of commercial that would make me happy.

I respect a man who follows his passion .My passion brought me to places I couldn't imagine
I'd take a trip to with a friend who is of Colombian decent. Maybe has family down there or just a friend who is fluent in Spanish . Go to one of the popular cities an its a guarantee you will find bud . I know there is dangers but use common sense . I've met several folk of different race an background who have traveled to Colombia solo just to vaca
That's an option which is possible probable an only you can make happen . As for other option they been listed here an might take away from the hunt an surprise of bagseed but these fellas have authentic stock which has been worked to bring out the strains full potentials

I think going to Colombia is the best idea yet. Cartagena is very safe and the best way to get introduced to Colombia. If you go in the off season (Starts January 15) its also very cheap. Very good bud can be bought very easy on the beach and trips to Santa Marta can be taken from there too. You can have the time of your lfe there!
Peace from Colombia!
