Sop sly my friend grew this really dank weed from bag seeds of some shitty ass weed he got for 5$ a gram. Is there any truth to this or is it not as dank as it looks?
Of course you can. Just because the seeds came from a plant that was pollinated and grown improperly doesn't mean anything. It's on the grower to make it dank by removing males, allowing the plant to only produce buds, and just in general doing everything right. And that's how Danks are made.
[quote name='"austyn12"'] will i always get dank from schwag if i take good care of them? I might do this .[/quote] Dank refers to the quality of the buds, which is determined by the grow. Will it be high in thc, Cbd, will they be big buds or small dense? That is up to genetics of the strain you have.
Absolutely true... the grower's skill and ability play HUGE roles in the quality of the end-product! Even the best genetics can potentially produce trash-weed if the plants aren't fed and cared for properly... for instance if there's something amiss in the soil, ph or nutrient-wise (too hot, underfed etc.), or if their leaves and root systems are ravaged by pests. A lot of the value and quality can be lost with a low-quality dry and cure, too. Improper storage and handling can reduce quality and potency even further. A mass-produced crop that was tended to, stored, and packaged by people who don't even smoke, or don't plan to smoke that particular crop, will only rarely come close to the potency of a single plant (or ten ) carefully tended to, by the person who plans to enjoy the fruits of his or her labor. So on one hand... If the bud the seeds came from, was what the kids these days call 'fire' (alright, that's probably very 2010 ) or if it was very high quality, top-shelf stuff, then you may or may not have a better outcome, depending on the genetic potential of the offspring (seeds) you happened to find, and depending on your growing and drying/curing skills when compared to the previous grower. But on the other... With mids, and with ancient or poorly stored schwag, 'beating' the bud that the seeds came from becomes very easy... in other words, the lower the quality of the herb you found them in (obviously poorly dried or cured, bricked/old), the better the odds usually are that you'll produce something much, much better!
