Pennywise Strikes Again

[The Phantom]

Crows are the same way, I had a Remington 700 BDL in 220 Swift. First shot and they were gone for the day.

Best time I had crow hunting is when we winged one and tied its leg to a piece of string and a stick in the ground. We just sat on the tail gate drinking beers and shooting crows as they came in to see their buddy tied up.

Dove hunting down here is what crow hunting is like up there. You get all sorts of people out there hunting them.

I’ve done that before here, once one starts screaming here they come! Lol

have an old .22 single shot bolt action the same way. open sight long barrel. if the bullet can travel as far as the target you'll hit it. it was a WWII trainer rifle.

didn't have the rats but used to shoot magpies with it. they are hard to hit cause they are all feather and crazy smart. bullets would sometimes pass through the feathers without hitting the bird. and they would bugger off the second that gun came out. they recognized it a 100 yards away.

That's hilarious... my nephew has that old 22 rifle now and it's the same gun you are describing. Single shot bolt action and exactly as you stated... if the bullet can travel as far as the target or eye can see... it's on you at that point and not the gun.

Hey penny I read Mac is really trainwreck. What's your thoughts on that?

 

[Pennywise]

No it’s 2 different strains, where did you here that?

 

[Dankman_420]

Guy on Insta and couple others there. Indigo I think is the one.
Your the most knowledgeable person I know about strains. My Chernobyl is a Trainwreck cross. Why I'm interested

 

[Pennywise]

Mac is Alien Cookies x (Colombian x Starfighter)

 

[Pennywise]

Sounds like he’s confused to me at best. Trainwreck is an old heirloom from Northern Cali. Probably Mexican x Thai x Indica

 

[Dankman_420]

Probably so. I just thought it was interesting

 

[Pennywise]

Not sure where people get their info. But they’ve all get there own spin on things.

 

[Dankman_420]

Totally agree. Thought it might have been from a tissue sample. Like Cali O and Tangie I read were proven same from lab testing.
I was interested only because of my work with Chernobyl. I had and have seen freakishly frosty pheno's from it

 

[Pennywise]

There’s no doubt in my mind there different plants. They’re both sativa dominate hybrids but this is the first time I’ve heard someone say there the same strain. Take what you see and hear on IG with a grain of salt.

 

[Dankman_420]

While researching a bit I ran across this. Mr soul breaks the lineage down

 

[Dankman_420]

It's interesting to me now that I'm interested in personal breeding that there's thousands of strains, but all roads lead back to just a handful. Afghan, Columbian, mexican, ect.
Hey bro thanks for letting me pick your brain

i just got a pak of wild afghani seeds to play with see what there is one day lol!

 

[Pennywise]

For the past 2 to 3 decades everything has been inbred to the point a lot of strains are the same as all the others.

 

[ilikemsticky]

im thinking we need to get back to the heirloom and landrace strains and pick the good ones.

 

[Pennywise]

I agree 110% I love the old heirlooms and Landrace

 

[ilikemsticky]

were working on it!

Among the popular modern varieties, many roads still lead back to the holy trinity of Chem, Sour Diesel and OG Kush.

Interestingly the Trainwreck is apparently in a very different part of the gene pool.

Check out the Phylos galaxy: The Phylos Galaxy

Try searching any of the big three, then try the Trainwreck and then Skunk or Haze. It's fascinating.

Where the Chem itself comes from, for instance, is still debated. Dog bud, but where's Dog bud from? Sour Diesel is thought to be a Chem S1 or Mass/Super Skunk x Chem 91? There's speculation that the OG is from the Chem too, but that is also highly controversial.

Also, it's hard to conclude that any/each of the "Afghan", "Columbian", "Thai" etc. is a stable individual line. More a catch-all term for uncertain origins, in my opinion.
