Bandit - You are dead on, strawberry kush produces rocks that are incredibly hairy, almost TOO hairy (not). I'd love to meet and greet that beautiful strain again someday if not in plant form, most definitely in medicinal form. Thanks for the heads up and the verification of my plant bragging
Trybud - I guess that's one type of vendor. From owners I've talked to, vendors usually bring in 50 - 60 clones is what I'm used to. Not really my way of doing things, but it helps the community to a point. You are right though, quality is paramount. I was the organic guy, so my drops always went quick, but that isnt hard when you only drop off 4 at a time.
Ponde- You are soooooooo right. Everyone has their desire for a certain effect but most are your typical, insane sativa or knock out indica minus any pain modification. We as a community need to be propagating strains that are very helpful for certain conditions. This means we would need people to perhaps be a little more open about what they need fixed and how that strain helps those issues. I've received kush's before that were as racy as a G-13 (dangerous) and I've had sativa's that make you sleepy in a half hour. Mislabeling is a big part of this, and an industry that tries to shell out insane amounts of THC when we really need higher levels of the OTHER compounds to alleviate symptoms.
On the flip side, I see it as not enough quality indica's with too many garden variety sativa's clouding the market. We need high quality, reliable and information on these strains to produce the best product for ourselves and our neighbors. The whole thing about jars full of useless medicine are too common when the people behind the counter think you are looking to get high. Sometimes, the people at clubs will even get mad if you ask too many questions about the medicine you are purchasing as if everyone is an experienced "stoner" and we all know whats up.
The SAC scene is coming together nicely and I'd love to help out if I can.
