The new Beaver Genetics babies are all tucked in. The space is busy with 64 extra Chili babies expected.

Inspirational as always MOG. I'm jealous of the chillies. I'll bet they aren't run of the mill peppers either.

I like that solution a lot. Effective, and damned entertaining, especially if they keep sending them.

They’re like technologically advanced clay pigeons as a matter of fact, clay pigeons are now considered to be “analog drones”

This is similar to the State vs the federal government in the US.
Spain is divided up in to autonomous regions, some have a more lenient attitude to cannabis , where as others are more draconian.
The Basque's and Catalans are much more independently minded where cannabis and other issue are concerned!

Cannabis laws in Spain can vary by autonomous region. For example, in June 2017, Catalonia legalized the cultivation, consumption and distribution of cannabis for members of designated cannabis clubs. The clubs must be self-sufficient non-profit organisations and only distribute cannabis to those aged 18-years-old and over. Cannabis clubs in Catalonia are also limited to producing 150kg of dried cannabis a year and must follow rules intended to stop drug tourism.

In Barcelona, there are more than 220 cannabis associations, with an average of 300 to 400 members. Faced with their uncontrolled expansion, the city council tried to regulate them in 2016 by ordering that they could not be located within 100 meters of children’s parks and schools, that they install a double door and a lobby to prevent the interior from being seen from the street and that they must have smoke extractors on the ceilings.
Barcelona’s 200 cannabis clubs face closure after the supreme court shut a legal loophole that has seen the city become Spain’s marijuana capital.

It is the latest in a series of setbacks for the asociaciónes, as they are popularly known. In 2017, the court overruled a law passed by the Catalan parliament which said “private consumption of cannabis by adults … is part of the exercise of the fundamental right to free personal development and freedom of conscience”.


Since then the clubs have operated under a Barcelona city bylaw that regulated their use, but this too has now been overturned, with the judges ruling that the city authorities were not competent to legislate on matters governed by the state.

“The majority of associations assume that sooner or later they will be forced to close down,” said Eric Asensio, spokesman for the Federation of Catalan Cannabis Associations. About 70% of Spain’s cannabis clubs are in Catalonia, the majority in Barcelona.

So everything is still to play for and the push and pull between Catalonia and the Spanish Government rages on!

To say that Basque and Catalans are more independent minded is a little of an understatement! I was in Barcelona last in 2019 and I was refused at two clubs and let into two. One of which was near our hotel so I frequented that one

Typical. Don't like cannabis, so force it to only be available to clubs. But hey, who knew, lots of peeps followed the rules and started clubs. That won't do, so regulate the clubs. Still too many of them, so regulate them more, and when that still doesn't make it stop, shut everybody down, and off everyone goes to the black market. Accomplished a lot that did. The peeps that don't like the clubs might want to ask themselves why they developed in the first place - as in, they were a direct response to the initial doomed idea that limiting cannabis to clubs would somehow make the evil weed go away.

It is high bloody time that politicians got off their moralistic and religious high horses and just treated this issue with common sense. Cannabis is not going away, people are not going to stop using it, and there is bugger all that politicians can do that will change that. The only solution is legalization, coupled with regulations, but only those that will actually accomplish something useful in the public interest. It is way past time to stop ruining lives over something less dangerous than alcohol. IMHO of course.

I'm up for some practice - been a while since I shot clay pigeons. Drones would be a whole lot more fun. Likely a bit too easy to hit, but the result would be more entertaining.

Here we go again..

Never vaxxed, and I've pondered all the alternatives.. Maybe Ozzy foreseen the future and had it all figured out after all...Possibly just an unstable genius...?

@420autoflower, I believe that you and I discussed bag seeds, and whether they would be 50% male or not. I suggested that most commercial operations are using tissue culture (female only presumably) or clones (from females only presumably) to produce bud.

Well as a test, here is what my sister in law got from four bag seed plants in a ten gallon pot of diy dirt mix:

All female and all happy so far. We intended to just test the soil mix before replacing test plants with autos from my seed stash, but the plants looked so good, Sis-in-law decided to grow them out. Don't blame her a bit.

Shells have been way too expensive the last two years!
