I've had a Doberman, I've hadanother bully breed, 50, 60
pounds and stronger than boththose dogs, wow yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
That low center of gravity?
Oh it's insane.

Speaker 3 (02:56):
It's like he's in four by four.

Speaker 2 (02:57):
He's so chill though, yeah, like his dad.
Sorry, you were sayingsomething, buddy.

Speaker 1 (03:05):
No, just Rick Simpson .
I know it was amazing and Ilove selling it because it's
like oh, it's a unique product.
Yeah, it's something thatcarries a lot of like medicinal
properties in my opinion, andwe're not allowed to talk I can
talk about on the podcast.
Actually, this is not like I'mon the showroom floor, so no
help, canada.

Speaker 3 (03:22):
Don't you love selling Rick Simpson oil?
Oh, to be quite honest, I callit the Swiss Army Knife of
Cannabis product.
Right, you can eat it, drink it, smoke it, dab it, mix with the
cream at your choice.
Literally does it all.
Gets you fried, it makes youfeel good.
I love Rick Simpson oil?

Speaker 1 (03:35):
Yeah, a thousand percent.
I remember the Oreo.
I like that technique.
I think you told me that liketwo clicks you put on, you take
the cream off and then you putit on the on the white part of
the Oreo and then you sandwichit back together.
Oh yeah, it just kind of islike a quick little infusion and
really helps cover the flavorand 100% bad, but it is like
extra weedy I would say it is aweed, yeah, yeah, as the natural

(03:57):
terpenes that stand through orstay intact throughout the
process.
Thank you, thank you very much.
There you go.

Speaker 2 (04:01):
Yeah, I usually have like north of 10, like 15, 10 to
15.
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (04:05):
Around there.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
Yeah, yeah, I actually I frequently use that
product.
I don't know if you know this.
I have a fire gummy recipe.
I make a cherry cola gummies,what.
I think they're pretty cute andif you put two in there they
get you pretty f**ked, butthey're great for bedtime.
I've got it like nailed down.
I can almost like recite itfrom the dome.

Speaker 3 (04:24):
Okay, that's dope.
So, like, what do you do?
Do you like make your gelatinand put a couple of clicks, or
how do you do it's?

Speaker 2 (04:30):
pretty cheater.
Yeah, you need bolts.
Okay, you definitely need bolts.
I just gotten new ones that arekind of like pearls were
undecided.
I like them more.
I don't know if our show runnerdoes, but I got bigger ones
that are almost like a mini,that are almost like a mini
Reese cup About.
Yay, big Jello, you needgelatin, gelatin, then Jello,
and I actually had pectin andthis was something I had to play

(04:52):
around with because they weretoo firm and weird.
And then you fucking whisk,whisk, whisk in that Rick
Simpson, all that is hard tonavigate with because it's so
goopy and sticky and like Iremember sometimes I'd be like
making it and you got like Jelloeverywhere.
And then I'm licking the Jelloand then I'm like whoa fuck, I'm
just throwing this fuck andlike you know what I mean.
But yeah, they're fire.

(05:13):
And then you get the cola syrupthat you would put in like a
soda stream.

Speaker 3 (05:18):
Damn, this is in town , so I like this.

Speaker 2 (05:21):
It's way easier than it sounds.
I will share the recipe ifanyone wants to know.
They're fire.
It's key to cure them after two.
Once they've sat in the mold,you take them out and put it on
like a chicken rack or whatever,and leave them in the fridge
for like 24 hours before youroll them Like a baking rack,
right.
Yeah, like a cookie rackexactly.

Speaker 1 (05:37):
And don't you put.

Speaker 2 (05:38):
You put like citric acid on the outside as well you
need.
Yeah, you put a little bit inwhich I help.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
I think Like make them sour.
You know what I mean, yeah youneed the sour tart.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
You put a little bit in there too.
I think it helps activate thepectin.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (05:50):
But then with your sugar crystals on the outside,
definitely some citric acid.

Speaker 3 (05:53):
Damn kind of gives it that zip the zippy-doodle.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you dothose and you're fucking they
were great.

Speaker 2 (05:59):
I really enjoyed them .
Yeah, I enjoyed making them.

Speaker 3 (06:01):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, next time I'll make some for you
.
Oh, also buy the RSO, let meknow.

Speaker 2 (06:04):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Still hard to use, though, ohyeah, but I like the product.

Speaker 3 (06:11):
You know what I will say this starting 2024, we are
switching to a syringe.
Oh, okay okay, good, and if youare worried about that taste,
we do have the RSO ICI that'scoming out, so it's gonna be
like an RSO but with like a minttaste, kind of mask some of
that.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
Just like fired under your tongue type of guy.

Speaker 3 (06:29):
Exactly so.
You know some people are likeoh, you know, I love the RSO,
but it tastes too much like weed.
Like you know, I like thatabout it.
I love that.
Yeah, like I like to taste theweed, like sometimes I'll pick,
especially when they'reflowering, like when I'm picking
off like little buds that aregonna stay around for flower and
they're just draining up theplant's energy.
I'll take them and I'll justput them in my mouth just to be
like hmm, that tastes good.
Oh, wow, this is gonna tastefire.

(06:49):
Like you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
Yeah, there's so many benefits to eating RSO, from my
understanding too, so I kindawanna know that.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
I mean, like I've heard this story, but do you
know the story?
Like, who is Rick Simpson?
Ooh, oh.

Speaker 1 (07:04):
We're gonna have to check it out on the spot, on the
spot.
Me, right now, I don't know.
I don't know either.

Speaker 3 (07:09):
Like he was wrong, it was the 15th of December.
No, I mean, I believe RickSimpson.
If I remember the storycorrectly, Rick Simpson invented
RSO for cancer patients.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
I believe that's right.
Yeah, we'll fact check that,but I'm pretty sure that's right
.

Speaker 3 (07:25):
Yes, and he actually put the recipe online.
So if you couldn't afford tobuy RSO from somebody and you
had a whole bunch of plantmaterial lying around after your
grow, or you know you'retrimming or whatever, a friend
hooked you up, you can make itat home.

Speaker 2 (07:41):
Yeah, like here's the recipe.
Just use it medicinally.

Speaker 3 (07:45):
Yeah, it was all for knowledge based, and you know
the love of cannabis and thepower of the healing plant, like
what's more noble than that.

Speaker 1 (07:51):
to be quite honest, right, it could be wrong, but I
think like the most basic way islike a hot plate and alcohol.
I think it's like a tincture,right?
Yeah, basically, it's nothingyou can get down on a very low
heat and you cook all thealcohol out until it's like this
little weed tincture probablystrain it and boom that's pretty
much.

Speaker 2 (08:07):
I didn't mean to put you on this flat buddy.
No, I'm also.
I mean it's probably up in theair, but what's the opposite of
metastasize?
Anyway, it does that to cancer,if I'm not mistaken, right, mm?

Speaker 1 (08:18):
So they say some people.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
yeah, it eats it up, it shrinks.
But I mean again, I can't makethe statement like blindly, but
they say some might say Somemight say Like Tommy Chong,
there you go Rick.

Speaker 1 (08:30):
he might say that he might say that.

Speaker 2 (08:33):
It happens to do something right.

Speaker 1 (08:35):
Like I don't know.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
Yeah, well, I don't know.
I just again just bring me backto an interesting story.
I won't say who, but someonewho was in on early days of
legalization mentioned like akind of eccentric doctor coming
in and talking.
It might have even been RickSimpson or something, probably
not, but anyways, basicallysaying, like I'm a doctor, we

(08:58):
don't prescribe this shit, butthis happens to work and it's
very puzzling to us, so weshould look into that more.
And he was like, well, neverreally gonna happen, not anytime
soon.
But anyways, again, this is notmedical advice for anyone
listening, but I am not a doctor.
Yes, yes.

Speaker 3 (09:16):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (09:17):
I went on TV, though how did I don't even know.
Like, how did you get yourstart in cannabis, greg?
I don't know.
Man, there's, that's a meatballfor you.

Speaker 3 (09:26):
You know what?
It's a long story.
It depends.
Like we talking about legacydays, are we talking about when
we gonna start?

Speaker 1 (09:33):
Where we wanna start.
Man, All right, you know what?
I'll tell you this Because Iknow I kind of did some research
.
I know you were like us, youdid some ski instructing and
snowboarding instructing.

Speaker 3 (09:40):
Yeah, I lived that snowboarding lifestyle.
Yeah, okay, I started skiingwhen I was three, snowboarding
since I was like nine,instructing since I was 16.

Speaker 1 (09:48):
So I just can see that and selling weed going hand
in hand oh it goes hand in hand.

Speaker 3 (09:52):
I used to have a scale like, especially when I
taught, like some of thesepeople that come up On the hill,
yeah, I would teach people.
And they'd be like I'm like,hey, you smoke weed.
And they'd be like, yeah, I'mlike, do you wanna buy some?

Speaker 1 (10:01):
And I have a scale and like an ounce on me, dude
Like this is Ready to go.

Speaker 3 (10:05):
Ready to go at all times.
Man, it was great, dude BlueMountain.
There's never any cops Likewho's gonna buck a kid on a
snowboard Just because youstaffed too.

Speaker 1 (10:13):
That makes sense.

Speaker 3 (10:13):
I work here.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
Yeah, I was supposed to be here.
We're good.

Speaker 3 (10:16):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah makes sense to me 100%.
So I guess what started me withcannabis, just in general, is
snowboarding lifestyle right,listening to hip hop music and
rock and roll music andalternative at the time, like
Limpisk and stuff, right, right,you know kind of in like
watching movies, like we'reheavily cannabis influenced,

(10:37):
like I was watching like Cheechand Chong at a young age and I
was always fascinated by thisplant.
I was like I have to smoke this, I have to smoke this, I have
to smoke this plant, I have toRight, it looks so much fun, it
looks interesting, I wanna smokeit so bad.
And grade seven rolls aroundFor some reason.
I was like I just feel like mydad might have weed you ever had
that feeling when you're young.

Speaker 1 (10:57):
Oh yeah, my mom had weed.

Speaker 2 (11:01):
That was the whole.
That was my first.

Speaker 1 (11:02):
So stirring.
I lied to my mom the first timeI smoked weed was.
I said that I had.
I was like, yeah, I smoked weed.
We were at a cottage.
My mom was like, yeah, cool,here you go, smoke it then.
And then I was like and Ididn't inhale or whatever.
You don't know how to smokeweed.
She's like do you want me toteach you how?
No way, yeah, are you serious?
That's it.
I had my mom for the first time.

Speaker 3 (11:22):
She was dope.
That is the coolest mom, butyou know pretty funny.

Speaker 1 (11:25):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, with like another kid about my
age and a friend of hers.
It was like, yeah, and I guessit was like in controlled
environment.
I expressed interest.
I was curious, 100% I don'tknow.
I had like two puffs and gotpretty baked, I remember that
Dude.

Speaker 3 (11:39):
That's insane.
My mom was so like not aboutweed, like ever.
Oh yeah, my pops had the stash,my dad had the stash.

Speaker 1 (11:47):
I was like it was weird Sorry.
Yeah, I didn't mean to cut youoff.

Speaker 3 (11:51):
I mean that's way cooler than my story.
I wish my mom smoked weed.

Speaker 1 (11:53):
I wish I was smoking weed dude, so you had the
feeling.

Speaker 3 (11:56):
I had the feeling, ok , it was like the weed was
calling me right.
I was just like I have afeeling it's there.
You know he has all these coolknives and like lighters in
there.
Like why doesn't he have likearmy knives, which are knives or
whatever?
And I was like I thought thatwas cool at the time.
Where did he keep his weed?

Speaker 1 (12:11):
In the sock drawer, in the sock drawer.

Speaker 3 (12:12):
I opened it I found a cigar lighter or, sorry, a
cigar case, like a cohebo, ok,and I was like this might be in
it and I shook it.
Oh here's.
I'm like, oh, omg, that soundstoo like to be a cigar.
I crack it open and I find likethe worst rolled pinner.
But it's like I found, likeElantis, I was going nuts, I was
like no way.
So I hop on my skateboard.

(12:35):
I go to my boy's house at thetime One of my friends had a
half pipe in his garage what?
Yes, a lot of people like, alot of people, like kids in my
neighborhood go to hang out.
Yeah, hang out, right.
And you know they wereinterested in smoking weed too,
because skateboard's no morelifestyle, right.
And I got there and I was like,guys, guess what?
You're not gonna believe it.
They're like, yeah, what what?
I'm like I got a joint.
I got a joint.

Speaker 1 (12:56):
Oh my God.

Speaker 3 (12:57):
Everyone stood up with a large smoker.
But, dude, I'll be honest withyou, maybe I didn't know how to
inhale.
I didn't get super high myfirst time, I didn't.
You know, I didn't have likethe old, like whoa.
And then after that it justkind of started kind of like
rolling into a snowball sort offact.
I just started, you know,smoking a little more weed.

(13:18):
Here we had my buddy, his olderbrother was in high school.
He would score us some dope,you know.
And then grade nine hit and Istarted selling dope at high
school.
Man, there you go, show up tosomething called the pit, a
couple of grams in, you know,half ounce, one ounce in your
back pocket.
But you had to be smart, right?
So when you were slaying dopeat the pit, there was like

(13:39):
security that would come andbook you because we were smoking
dope and cigarettes at the pit.
We should have been in highschool, yeah, yeah, so we would.
You know, you'd put a couplelike we called them, you know,
dimes back in the day.
Point sevens, never.

Speaker 1 (13:49):
Point sevens.
Point sevens disrespect thelittle bags like dice on them
little diamonds or spades orwhatever.
Yeah, which?
One was your favorite the dimebaggie.
Yeah, what a logo.
Oh, that's a good question.
I think the cherries.
Cherries were fire.
Cherries were fire Cherrieswere fire.
Little Pac-Man cherries, Iguess I don't know.

Speaker 3 (14:08):
Yeah, I like those.
So you had to put like yourstash in like a bag of candy or
like halls or whatever and youdisguise it because, just like,
put the halls on top and thenthe grams in the bottom and then
when you get lunch or skip inclass, I don't suggest anyone
skip school, school kids.
Yes, right, and yeah, whenpeople rolled up, just fucking
chop them and boom, and thenthat progressed to college.

(14:31):
Where'd you go to school?
I went to school at GeorgianCollege ski resort operations.
Oh no shit.
Oh yeah, you guys want to learnhow to do a 725-40 snowboard
tricks?

Speaker 2 (14:42):
I'm your guy there you go yeah, it's pretty like
next level.
It sounds like a lot of spins.

Speaker 3 (14:47):
Oh yeah, it's like two full rotations.

Speaker 1 (14:49):
Yeah, that's pretty gnarly.
Yeah, nice, Okay, I'm catchingit.
Man, you were like, how can Iturn the ski life into a full
time?
You're like I'm going to go toGeorgian College and be like,
yeah, run the ski hill.
I'm going to be like general,manage the whole fucking resort
or whatever Exactly.
I'm like, yeah, when did youlike realize like fuck that, I
don't want to do that?

Speaker 3 (15:07):
You know what?
I just to be quite honest, youmaking more money selling weed?
Well, no, you know what?
To be quite honest, it wasalways kind of like just
something I did on the side,always Like it was just extra
money, right.
Okay, all right, I still wantedto do other things, but what
actually ultimately happened wasI was at the Badlands Snowboard
Park Shots at the Blue Mountain, and it was having a good time.

(15:27):
It was a really like kind ofhard pack day.
Snow is just zipping right andthey have something called like
a booter, which is essentiallythis huge snowboard jump I would
say the big one.
The takeoff is from your floorto your ceiling, maybe a little
higher.
It's 60 feet of flat and thenit drops down right.
The mound that you dropped downon is like the size of a small

(15:49):
home.
It's like a huge mound of snowright.
It's terrifying.
Yes so I was trying to you knowhot dog a little bit.
What's hot dog?

Speaker 1 (15:58):
I know, show off, show off, show off.
That's hot dog.
I don't know.
I haven't heard that.
Sir.
Everyone's looking at me likecrazy.
You know what I'm gonna get youyou have your snowboard.

Speaker 2 (16:05):
I love little lingos and isms.
I don't know I pick up on them.

Speaker 1 (16:08):
I have an ice skateboarded like twice
Snowboarded.
Snowboarded, yes, twice, and mybum really hurt and I never did
it again.

Speaker 3 (16:16):
You know what it's because you gotta have the Don
Cron teach you.
This year we're going to bothof you guys, all right, there
you go.

Speaker 1 (16:21):
Sure man, all right, I could enjoy getting out in the
pot, yeah it sounds great.

Speaker 3 (16:24):
Yeah, dude, it's fun.
So I was hitting, I hit thejump and I flew.
I took off, dude, I overshotthe 60 feet of flat and then I
landed somewhere, like so you're60 feet, you wanna land on the
down part right here?
Okay, I landed at the flat.
Okay, I overshot this thing.
Oh, dude, it was like so whenyou land on the thing, it's not

(16:44):
like it's not that it's high butit's not that high right, but
when you land over here it's aserious drop.
I did that.
My knee bent in toward the side.
Acl gone, mcl gone oh man, thisis bad.
My patella shaved.
Now I basically had to do likethree knee operations.
That's fucking crazy.
Learn how to re-walk again.
Yeah, I will say, though youknow, talking about RSO earlier,

(17:08):
my knee does swell up.
I mixed a little bit of thatRSO with the cream.
Massage your right and the kneeRelief Topically.
Yeah, relief is insane, dudeLike, yeah, I don't like taking
like Tylenol and stuff like that, or rather not Rather drink of
water or something.

Speaker 1 (17:23):
Yeah, yeah, don't, man, that's crazy.
I didn't know that injury aboutyou man.
So that kind of is like yeah,it's the same pretty much.
I did your snowboarding career,I guess.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Don't get me wrong, like you'regonna go with me and do the
bunny hills or whatever, butyou're not doing this triple
diamond.
Oh, I'll still do that, youwill.
Okay, you don't like it?
There's no crazy jumps.

Speaker 3 (17:41):
Yes, exactly, yeah, I mean I have to.
I did get like a prettyexpensive knee brace, I'm not
gonna lie.
So if I do need to go, make ithappen.
Yeah, like, don't get me wrong,I still got on the board Like I
was snowboarding like the nextday, but like, dude, in so much
pain, I had to go.
I didn't know what happened.
Are you serious?
Yeah, so what happened was whenI tore it.
It was weird.

(18:03):
I went and I was like, oh, my,first of all, I almost passed
out from the pain and then I gotup and I was just kind of like
okay, I'm gonna walk this offthe adrenaline.

Speaker 1 (18:10):
Right, I'm gonna walk this off.
You got an old guy holding you19, 18.

Speaker 3 (18:14):

Cool, he pulls out this needle.
I swear to God, it was this big.
That's terrifying.
I'm gonna drain my knee withthis thing.
I'm expecting like a littleneedle, like a little prick, and
maybe it drains out, like youknow.
I mean, like you know, no dude,this guy shoved this needle in
my kneecap underneath it.
He's trying to pull stuff out.
Nothing's coming out, nothing.
No blood dry.

(20:16):
Because he's in the knee, likehe's actually in my kneecap.
He thought it was just like pus, build up or whatever.
You try and drain nothing.
He's moving it around.
I mean I can feel it.
I'm like get that needle out ofmy knee.
He's like pulls it out.
He's like, yeah, I don't thinkI can drain it.

Speaker 1 (20:33):
No guff.
So, oh man, I hold that rightthere, we're gonna smell.
We got a hash hole.
There's like some some triangleoh black triangle rosin with
some drip station flower.
That's what we're smoking, solet's check that out.
We'll be right back with DonKron.
Don't forget, she's theofficial sponsor.

Speaker 2 (21:00):
We back.
Shout out to hammer town hashheads hammer town hash heads
with the fire.

Speaker 1 (21:06):
Black triangle live rosin.
It was an early joint voice.
It was an early joint, you didwonderful joint.

Speaker 3 (21:13):
It Was delicious, burnt for a good time.

Speaker 1 (21:17):
Yeah, the flowers from, no, the farms, I believe.
Oh yeah, no the farm calleddrip station.
Drip station, yeah, it was verygood.
Oh yeah, we back.
We were kind of want to getinto growing, I guess, and what
it means being a home grower toyou, and you know when did you
start growing?
Um.

Speaker 3 (21:36):
That, oh yeah.
So I started growing the way Ifeel like a lot of people
started growing.
They found some seeds and weReally.

Speaker 1 (21:45):
Oh yeah, you found me just back seat and back seat
back seat bed.

Speaker 3 (21:49):
You know there's a good chance to be a female,
there's a good chance to be amale.
It's a gamble, right.
And I know I have one littleplant and I got a pretty big.
I put it was young, I was likemaybe 16 years old.
Oh shit, yeah, 16 years old.
I put in the back of my parentsgarden and it was an area where
I didn't think they reallywould check on it.
It was kind of behind someshrubbery.

(22:10):
I was like I can grow here,they won't notice it.
No, not at all.
So it got like almost to likehuge.
You dig it.

Speaker 1 (22:17):
I know I.

Speaker 3 (22:19):
Do?
I was like 16 and realize this.
You know, we just kind of likecheese.
I was like I don't know, yourparents just thought you were a
big joker man.
Yeah, they didn't think I wassmart.

Speaker 1 (22:26):
They're like.

Speaker 3 (22:27):
Look at this guy, I mean the one did they?

Speaker 1 (22:29):
catch on, like when to start a flower, no, not even
that.

Speaker 3 (22:32):
It got like.
It started to veg and thenagain it got huge.
I guess my dad was likewatering the the shrubs and he
like kind of looked over andhe's like Instantly tore out of
the garden came.
He was like, is this yours?
I was like I have no idea.
Right, I have no idea who thatis, sir, damn yeah.

Speaker 2 (22:50):
No, I'll just tore it out.
Even though you had the weed,did he ever find out that you
jacked his little pinner?
I?

Speaker 3 (22:56):
Feel like I mean I've said it like you know later on
in life, but I feel like at thetime I feel like he was like
someone's still man, you knowsomeone stole it.

Speaker 1 (23:04):
But who else is in his sock drawer?
Dude, I got two other brothers.

Speaker 2 (23:11):
Yeah, I know, I know that one right.

Speaker 1 (23:13):
Where are you?
The oldest?
The middle, I am the oldest,okay, oh, this nice trailblazer,
the trailblazy.

Speaker 2 (23:20):
Geez Nice.
Our first plant Got the fuddledyes.

Speaker 3 (23:24):
and then the efforts continued yes next summer the
forest near my house and that'swhen I actually got some bud.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's why I actually got somebud, and then it was like we
were growing there every everyother summer.
And then when I moved to BlueMountain, I had a couple clones
I was able to start in, like my,my closet or whatever, and I

(23:46):
brought those to Blue Mountainand I was growing weed on the
hill.

Speaker 1 (23:49):
Oh, oh, damn yeah.

Speaker 3 (23:51):
No, it was never like you know.
Just small quantity for fourplants, maybe five, just got it
around.
Yeah, get some buds.

Speaker 1 (23:58):
I need some tips than that, because I got a little
four Plant going on like a tent,like an AC infinity setup.
Mmm, that's a wonderful tent,are you serious?
It's a good one.
Yeah, yeah, those are goodright yeah, phenomenal time.

Speaker 3 (24:10):
I wish I had an AC infinity.

Speaker 1 (24:12):
Yeah, I've been rocking it pretty hard.
A Richard, the showrunner,helped me set it up.
And then there's four.
Yeah, we're doing the willieswonder.
Hmm, we're in the first week offlowers.
They're really starting to getlike long, you know, yeah,
starting to stretch, reallystarting to stretch baby, the,
remind me what are you growingin like what's this substrate?
Oh yeah, I think it's justpromix is really old promix and

(24:32):
buckets.
We've got these self-wickingWatering things in the bottom.
Okay, so you know thoseplanters, you know the ones that
the constant, so in the rootsare Grout, trying to go to the
bottom.
They get the water from thebottom.
It like sucks it up.

Speaker 3 (24:47):
Yes, you're feeling.

Speaker 1 (24:48):
You're feeling up Like a train and suck exactly
from the bottom like regularwater, and then we're hitting
them with some good nutrientsright now and Nice what are you?

Speaker 3 (24:55):
using Advanced advanced is good.

Speaker 1 (25:00):
I like advanced yeah.

Speaker 3 (25:01):
I'm not gonna lie shots at the remote nutrients,
oh really.

Speaker 2 (25:08):
Yeah, I like your brother's, your results.
I beef some out, doesn't it?

Speaker 3 (25:11):
I like it, I feel, though my next one I do want to
try is a crop salt, but you gotto order from the States.
Really, bring me a distributorcross.

Speaker 2 (25:24):
Yeah, and it's heavy to ship.

Speaker 3 (25:28):
You know, it's like I don't want to deal with that.
Yeah, there's a good chancethat.
Hey, it gets stopped, you know?
Oh, really I'm not supposed tocome over.
Yeah, or something like that,or regulations you know, and all
of a sudden it's just.
It's a hassle I don't want tohave to deal with.

Speaker 2 (25:40):
Yes, it's chemicals, yeah you're growing yellow.

Speaker 3 (25:44):
I am growing the Jello strain.
Oh, that's pretty cool.
Yeah, it's a cross of blackcherry punch Jealousy and one of
my favorites right in cerealmilk.

Speaker 1 (25:53):
Okay cool man.
Yeah, wouldn't inspired you togrow that one.
It's like you know the story.
There's a story on everything.
Bob the seed, or somebody gaveyou a cut or you know what.

Speaker 3 (26:02):
Somebody gave me a cut and I found the one that I
liked and kept it.
Okay, All right.
And this is the Don Kron Jelloright.
Literally smells likestrawberries, like it's
delicious yeah, it's funkystrawberries.
All right, next time.
Well, that grow tent isfinished.
Dude, I've got a cut for you.

Speaker 1 (26:22):
Well, trade, yeah, yeah.
What do you got they?

Speaker 3 (26:26):
I'm sorry, I don't know why well, he's one yeah the
willies wonder man, do you dohave a cut or did you do make it
close?

Speaker 1 (26:32):
No, they didn't work out the first time and it goes
too cold.

Speaker 3 (26:35):
We did it from seed these ones.

Speaker 1 (26:37):
We're trying to take some clones and it didn't work
out.
I have a suspicion it wasbecause it was it was too cold.
Yeah, you know, I you thoughtyou did you your clothes.
You keep them in the tent.

Speaker 3 (26:47):
No, so well similar.
I also use a heat pad or heatmat.
Sitting there, yeah, I keepthem warm, I got to keep more,
keep moist.

Speaker 1 (26:58):
That's what I'm thinking, I think, I think, we,
we.
I was fine with the moisturething, but I think it got a
little cold, so he mats.
A good piece of advice.
That's where I went wrong.

Speaker 2 (27:06):
Yes, how do you maintain like your optimal Set
up in your setup, like keepingthat humidity right?
You got like some crazy gadgetsor anything like this guy.

Speaker 3 (27:15):
So you know, I did kind of like the red green
approach to that.
So I live in.
I live in like a smallapartment and be real with you
guys, a small apartment.
So I have a three by threeshots at the gorilla grow tan,
shots at the Myers-Hardes rowand shot us out to AC infinity.
I do have an egg fan.

Speaker 1 (27:30):
Oh yeah, that's fire.

Speaker 3 (27:31):
They're fire.
I just I wish they had tentswhen I bought this tent.
I can't want to get an ACinfinity.

Speaker 1 (27:35):
Yeah, we got our set up from indoor farmer, I believe
way online.
Yeah, yeah they took care of usnicely.
We got a really sick setup.
It's a Self-sufficient prettymuch man.
Yeah, I thought the wicking andthat it was great.
I don't know.
I'm having a good time with it.
I was a little bit of helpingmy friends advanced nutrients.
I Love.

Speaker 2 (27:56):
I love the red green reference.
Sorry, you are Canadian.
I want to hear about your setupbecause that sounds like a you
know concha man.
Yeah, so what?

Speaker 3 (28:07):
I like to do.
First, you need, you need a fewthings, all right.
If you want to have thatoptimal temperature, you want to
have that perfect environment,you need air conditioning, all
right, right off the bat.
Yeah, you got to keep it cold.
You have to have a humidifierand also a dehumidifier
Especially Serious, right.

(28:28):
So what I did, I bought like anactual air conditioning unit
like the ones you attached to awindow, and it kind of looks
like our 2d2.
So if it's meant to do like 400square feet or like 350, right,
I put it out, I put it like atthe air pump, at like low, okay.

(28:48):
And then what I did was I tooksort of like an air vent that
you see up here in your roof ifyou were to take that out of the
ceiling and it would look kindof like a shower head, right.
So I attached that to the sortof like a, that shower head or
that sort of Vent system and Iattached that to like a long

(29:09):
sort of hose like an exhausthose you'd use.
I don't know the actual correctname.
I think you got it.

Speaker 2 (29:15):
Yeah, exhaustos.

Speaker 3 (29:19):
Yeah, and then I attached that to the air
conditioning, ran that into thetent.
So once you have your airconditioning set up, the trick
is now how do you keep your airconditioning At perfect
temperature all the time?
How do you know to regulate it?
How do you know that's notgonna prevent a?

Speaker 1 (29:35):
drying out, because air conditioning can cause
drying to right Right.
That's exactly why you have thehumidifier good call out.

Speaker 3 (29:42):
Yeah, it's got another pretty face.

Speaker 1 (29:46):
How do you fuck with?
What humidifier do you use?
What's the red-green approachto the humidity?

Speaker 3 (29:52):
So I have a honey wall, just like a nice honey.
Well, always want to make sure,though You're always blocking
the lights.
So I like to take like themetal, like metal duct tape,
okay, put over the lights, makesure nothing's kind of gonna
mess up, and like the the lightsoffstage.
But once you have thehumidifier, do humidifier and
your AC unit, now to keep it onand off you need a switch.

(30:15):
So I always recommend ink bird,right, it has a regulator,
right.
You just run sort of like alike this wire attached to like
some sort of sensor.
You put that in like the canopylevel, you know I mean, and then
it regulates at yourtemperature.
So you set it till it's a Ihave my 10, my 10, sent to like
76, 77.
If it goes any higher than that, it kicks in, yep, right, and

(30:35):
then once it yeah, once, oh,yeah, I want to drops back to
like 75.
So I do always a couple degrees, you know, I mean just to kind
of keep it cool for a little bitlonger.
Yeah, exactly right, boom.
So that's what I do keeps itnice and cold and you can get
another ink bird for humidityand dehumidity.
So, and with the ink bird forthe temperature.
You can always add like aheater as well, so, like in the

(30:58):
winter time, if it's gettingcold, right.
What's great about the wintertime, though, and you're growing
indoors, guys, is it'sbasically not very human because
there's all dry.
We dry right at that point,right, so you just have to worry
about humidity, where in thesummertime, it's the opposite.
Interesting, unless you werelike having it in a perfect room
itself, like.
If you're growing in like aperfect room with already

(31:18):
perfect temperature, then youdon't really have to worry about
that.

Speaker 2 (31:20):
But I don't have people's houses.
That's like impossible.

Speaker 3 (31:24):
Yes, exactly.
Like an apartment right.

Speaker 1 (31:27):
Yeah, I just do the cloth pots with the the like,
what do you do?
It will kind of medium use.

Speaker 3 (31:32):
I'm glad you asked.
I've actually seen one promix.

Speaker 2 (31:34):
Are you?

Speaker 3 (31:34):
there's a lot of promix there you go, I do the
butt chug too.
Okay, yeah, that's how I fallto my plants.
That's great.

Speaker 2 (31:40):
You're on point.
Yeah, I agree, I'm on plants,really.

Speaker 3 (31:43):
Yeah, 100% no, it's great, it's great, yeah, I'll be
roots right, so you want roots,and bigger the roots, bigger
the fruits.

Speaker 1 (31:50):
Yeah, that's it man.
Yeah, no advice.

Speaker 3 (31:54):
It's great, let's have a light easy.

Speaker 1 (31:57):
What kind of light is it?
I know it's LED.
Okay, perfect, nice.
How come?
I can't remember.
It's definitely LEDs.
Infinity is another.
You have an AC infinity lightto, I do.
I think I want the full setup.

Speaker 2 (32:14):
Hopefully you'll get results hoping for it, I guess
that's low to no heat right LED400, I think.

Speaker 1 (32:21):
The.

Speaker 2 (32:21):
AC infinity 400.
I believe I'm completely novicewhen it comes to this.

Speaker 3 (32:25):
Did you get a grow 10 as well?
No, oh, you guys should havegot a grow 10 together and give
did like a.

Speaker 2 (32:30):
I see a grow off.

Speaker 3 (32:32):
Oh, that should be a podcast.
The next one, guys, that's nota bad idea.

Speaker 2 (32:36):
I have one more limited space, but I would love
to.
I'd love to just garden.

Speaker 1 (32:40):
Do you have any opinions on one?
I should be like lollipoppingthem, really trimming them and
stuff like that.

Speaker 3 (32:45):
Um, I would have to see your plants.
How big are they?

Speaker 1 (32:48):
Come kick it.
We got to come hang out stageor the end.
I mean literally, I guess sevendays and a flower maybe eight.

Speaker 3 (32:54):
Oh, okay, we started right just the fire.

Speaker 1 (32:58):
I feel like I just switched to 12 and 12.
I guess okay, perfect.

Speaker 3 (33:01):
I would suggest lollipopping I'm sooner than
later, because it does kind oftake a little bit to like bounce
back from that.

Speaker 1 (33:08):
Right, right, because you're not a bit yeah exactly.
I have been kind of slowly.
Like you know, some of theleaves start to kind of get
yellow and it starts flowering,right, the fan leaves and the
shit at the bottom, and you justdon't need those anyways.
Right, are you paid?
Yeah, I mean, are you?
Ph in your water Should havewhat we all, what you P, h, my,
what?

Speaker 3 (33:24):
a Kennedy?
Yeah, exactly, do you the magicnumber for me?
Well, it's in a range of like5.8.

Speaker 1 (33:31):
I have the meter one.

Speaker 2 (33:32):
Okay it's not a lot of low way.
I again I don't know.
I'm just thinking aboutdrinking water.

Speaker 3 (33:37):
Yes, it is lower than water.
It's actually the same pH asyour saliva.
I'm just saying so.
It's interesting.
So it's almost like the life ofplant is like water.

Speaker 2 (33:46):
It's like drinking a bottle of this Sonny Very
interesting okay what is it giveit like more chance to absorb,
exactly, it's just a slower.
Yeah, it allows.

Speaker 3 (34:00):
It allows the plants to absorb the nutrients?
Yeah, a lot quicker.
So how do you go about pH inyour water?
So you know, local dispensaryshot a go-to growers world on
gear you have.

Speaker 1 (34:11):
Oh, I love growers world.
Yeah, shots out growers world.
Hey, yeah, um, you get someempanadas are on the corner.
Oh they're fire.

Speaker 3 (34:18):
Yeah they are fire.
Actually, they just had thatnot too long ago.
They had this dope StreetFestival that I checked out.

Speaker 1 (34:23):
Argentinian place?
Yeah, can't remember the nameof it.
Oh, what is it, Anyway?
So move on.

Speaker 3 (34:28):
Um, yeah, check them out.
Get a pH up and a pH down.
Get both, just in case you got.

Speaker 2 (34:34):
Joe Pies.

Speaker 3 (34:35):
Sorry.

Speaker 1 (34:35):
Go Joe Pies.

Speaker 2 (34:37):
Yeah, you gotta shout out our.

Speaker 1 (34:39):
Argentine Okay, yeah, go, joe Pies I.

Speaker 3 (34:43):
Like that.
I've actually never tried that.

Speaker 2 (34:45):
They're never had no unreliable they're really they
definitely compete with like ajumbo and I had a Rubin one
there.

Speaker 1 (34:51):
It was fire too, but they do like the original.
Yeah, they're good.
You can get them to go orthey'll heat them up there for
you.
All right, I guess we'll moveon from empanadas.

Speaker 3 (35:04):
Huh, go world's, go world's great pH down, ph down
now, anything in life.
You can buy a cheap one, that'sokay, or you can buy a medium
one, that's pretty decent, oryou can get a little more
expensive one.
You get what you pay for it,right.
So I recommend doing a mediumto expensive with a pH right,

(35:25):
because the cheap ones breaksuper easily and it's gonna be a
pain in the ass to buy like SixpH meters every month, right.
So you know, try not.
You know you don't go overboard, but you want to get something
pretty decent.
You get a pH meter and you justpretty much put dry, like you
know.
Oh, I always recommend filteredwater.
Filtered filter water.
Tap water in Toronto will.

Speaker 2 (35:46):
I like tap water here , but interesting you're
probably right, but Toronto tapwater hits different.
I will fight over.

Speaker 3 (35:54):
Yo stop this Water.
What it's like?
It's different, it's like wellwait, whatever tap water you've
messing with shots out to bluemountain.
What best tap water in Ontario?
No cap.

Speaker 1 (36:12):
Or just drinking for drinking.

Speaker 3 (36:14):
Yeah, I don't know.
Oh it's yo.
Shots out to blue mountain,shots out calling would gang.

Speaker 2 (36:19):
I could believe that it's fire.
Go try, I'll test, I'll let youknow.

Speaker 3 (36:22):
trust me, I'll let you know, okay, um, yeah, ph it
to six pH, is it six?
Always add your nutrients infirst cuz those could always
throw off your nutrients right.

Speaker 2 (36:32):
Cuz Divide a different level of cities with
the way you got like a dripdropper and you just fire some
shit in there and then you havea dip test trip or whatever.
This for yeah.

Speaker 3 (36:40):
I will say this.
So if you are Want some tomeasure, I use like a syringe.
That's my favorite way of likelike kind of skiing out the, the
nutrients.

Speaker 1 (36:49):
Yeah you, I got some ski dough at the plunger thing.

Speaker 3 (36:55):
Yeah, dude, that's what I do drop it.

Speaker 1 (36:57):
Bam always make sure that bucket.
I got this nice bucket.

Speaker 3 (37:01):
I give it always a good stir and then pH your water
and you'll even see betterresults.
All right, cool, are you usingany?
I mean, you're kind of readyand flowered and recommended to
use it all the way through, butusing me like calcium magnesium?

Speaker 1 (37:14):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I did that.
I definitely did.
Did that in the earlier stages,for sure.
Yes, so thanks for affirmingthat I'm doing some things right
, killing it man.
You know what I feel like water.

Speaker 3 (37:27):
I mean, dude, my first, my first plan got
destroyed.
So you know why you got tolearn from somewhere.
I moved to somewhere else.
Now, next time you got, I meanyou can always switch the new
water.
Now and I'll say this if youdon't have it like a filter,
like I'll say you're like it'spaying the ass for me to fill up
from like my fridge orsomething or like one of the, if
you have like a jug or whatever, dude, what I did is I went and
got one of those Brita taps,attached it to my top, and just

(37:47):
do it like that.
Flip the switch by the bang, bythe boom 30 bucks last four
months.

Speaker 2 (37:54):
Could you do jugged spring water to?
Oh, of course, and that's just.
I mean, yeah, that's a little.
He's got the bougie setup.

Speaker 3 (38:01):
Oh, you got the, you got the good water, well, I
don't know well, no, what towhat?
I don't know good water in theblue jug.
That's always a good water.

Speaker 1 (38:07):
It's always a good water.

Speaker 3 (38:09):
It's always cold.
Or you have the one that's fire, which is like the hot one.
You're like, yeah, I'm makingporridge and you ever fought any
pests.
Or like I mean outdoor, you'realways gonna have some sort of
pest issue.

Speaker 1 (38:18):
Yeah, that makes sense.

Speaker 3 (38:20):

I don't care what inside,outside, I'm putting
dietimaceous earth on top of myplants.

Speaker 1 (38:29):

Yeah, it's health.
It's food grade safe.
It like kills bugs but doesn'thurt humans.

Speaker 3 (38:37):

When you do add that, make sureyou're goggled up, you know you
don't want to powder?

Speaker 1 (38:45):
Oh yeah, no.

Speaker 3 (38:47):
Yes, very bad for you to breathe it.
Yes, yeah, no, no, no.
And keep in mind and you alwayskeep safe, because if you have
fans going you don't want toturn your fans after you.
Kind of like a Papa dust,exactly like.
Was this a dust milk, like youknow?
Yeah, that'd be bad.
What's it called again, sorry,dietimaceous earth Interesting.

bucks.

particular about that term.

I Don't have to put the term the queue influence
people to buy weed.

Shots out to some of my dopefriends who are killing it in
the game.

Speaker 1 (41:39):
Right, fair enough.
You're like you don't consideryourself personally, but you're
like it's not a term you'd liketo own.
But there's a thing wrong withif you want to own it, 100% got
it.
You know, I mean 100% got it.
Yeah, that makes sense, butyeah.

Speaker 3 (41:51):
Well, I don't think you know, I just think I'm just
some dude that smokes weed, likeyou know.
I mean, and I just show peoplecool ways to smoke weed.
I like to show interesting waysto smoke and we like on a
skateboard or hitting like rigsand on a skateboard or in Cool
various spots.

Speaker 2 (42:05):
I do like your skateboard videos.

We got when I like missskateboarding not that I skated,
but I would hurt myself forsure.
I just think it's cool.

Grab the proxy after you'rehitting it.
And they continued hit it.
That's just a fun way of doingthings double slide yeah.
Yeah, it's just fun, like nowyou're hanging out your friends,
now you're filming cool content.

(43:01):
To be quite honest, if anything, I would call myself a content
creator.
I'd call myself a creatorbefore, before an influencer.

Speaker 1 (43:08):
Yeah, I think it's important as an employer to do
like you're trying to Decibitize, and I think you do try and do
that so soon it comes likedabbing and yeah, I'll
concentrate it's and Anycomfortable on that side.

Speaker 2 (43:20):
You know they mean like rousin and shops with John,
our boy.
You were actually the first LPwho shots out to we stick around
.

Speaker 3 (43:25):
Yeah, yeah, no shots out.
The weeds grant first LP in thehistory of cannabis in Ontario
To press rosin, and I didn't seeanyone else in the country.

Speaker 1 (43:34):
I'm gonna say the country.

Speaker 3 (43:35):
I'm gonna say the country.
Yeah, we're the first.
I think anyone really did itafter maybe.

Speaker 1 (43:39):
A couple of up Nurse did and I mean, there's it you
know, it's a good idea.

Speaker 3 (43:43):
It's a good idea.
All right, there's more thanone wristwatch, there's more
than one car.
Good idea, it's a good idea.

Speaker 1 (43:47):
So what was the funniest story you kind of had
doing not, oh my?

Speaker 3 (43:50):
god, okay.
So I think I was in Ottawa,john and I were in Ottawa
Pressing rosin.
I forget what store it was.
This is a couple years ago,maybe a year ago, and some
person kind of wanted to go bangthrough buck and they.

Speaker 2 (44:07):
I don't want to do I do I name the LP?
Yes.

Speaker 1 (44:13):
Okay, okay, or the product.
Maybe you don't need to namethe LP and.

Speaker 3 (44:17):
I don't know the product, I don't know.
I don't remember the strangething.
I just know the fuck.
I just know the.
Okay, I'll see, really don'twant to your oil.
Okay, dude, we pressed it andit came out like blood.
First of all, we pressed like ahalf ounce and this guy got
like a point three back.
I would have been upset.
Well, here's the thing a lot ofpeople don't realize.

Speaker 2 (44:41):
A couple grams right well so yes, average.

Speaker 3 (44:44):
So what about?
What I would do is like I wouldget like a Cheap pound, like on
legacy days.
I get like a cheap pound forlike 800 bucks 500 bucks right,
like a stanky, cheap pink,because pink always add a little
small, little yeah.
Yeah, and then I would pressthat chop the grams of flour
rosin for, like you know, aprofit.

(45:06):
Yeah, do that all day, fairenough, you know what I mean.
So you can get some good yieldsif you pick the correct plant,
right?
Yeah, the most thing thatmatters in your present flower
rosin.
Now I wouldn't suggest you guysgo right out like dabbing flour
rosin, yeah, but what I like touse flour rosin is, if I Go, if

(45:26):
I'm gonna roll joint.
Want to taste the essence of theflower I'll press and I don't
want to make.
I don't have enough to makehash rosin or you know, live
rosin time.
Exactly right like that wouldbe nice one day.

Speaker 1 (45:39):
It would be nice.
We can't be balling it out,wouldn't put Slugs of a live
rosin and our dubs all the time,so it is like a nice hash
variant.

Speaker 3 (45:47):
Exactly so.
If you want, let's see you gotsome great flour like that drift
.
We smoke the drip station thatwe smoke.
Let's say you're like oh youknow what I'd love to do.
I got a quarter to press, ahalf quarter, roll up a half
quarter.
I'm gonna add the lot of flourrosin to it, adds a nice little
zippy-dee-doo dot a and you know, you're on your way.
It's, it's nice, right?
Yeah, and yeah, we're pressingrosin there for a minute.

(46:08):
I forgot how we got on thistopic.
It was the craziest story, Ithink.
Oh yes, so we pressed that.
We pressed that weed was apoint, for it Look like black
tar for this guy like the fall.

Speaker 1 (46:18):
You're like I don't know.

Speaker 3 (46:19):
The same man Like oh, I felt bad and I was just like,
like it was, like it was like ahundred dollar half-hounds,
like it was not, like you know,it wasn't it was a complete swag
.

Speaker 1 (46:28):
I got you.

Speaker 3 (46:31):
It was like.
It was like it was like ahundred bucks including tax,
maybe like you don't know, solet's just say it started with
the tea.

Speaker 2 (46:38):
Yeah, we got you guys , yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (46:41):
Yeah, that's unfortunate man.
Oh, dude, I felt so bad.
I try to like tell him like,hey, man, you don't want that.
I'm like that's, I'm like youdon't want to go for like super
cheap, but it's gonna be way toodry.
You want a per.
You want like a really goodhumidity, like 62% relative
humidity, with your cannabisbuds beautiful, you know what I
mean.
You're gonna be doing like aflower rosin press.
Yeah, I don't know if I'mfrozen, oh dude.

(47:02):

I felt bad.
I was all like do we press anyextra that I can like throw in
here for the poor guy?
You know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (47:08):
We didn't oh.

Speaker 3 (47:12):
I felt so bad from, but there's nothing I can do.
And, guys, and that's a thing,you can be a good flower rosin
press.
You could be a great presser,but that flower isn't good, it's
fire and fire out, especiallywith, you know, the flower rosin
.

Speaker 1 (47:22):
So I think you mentioned to you a joker's like
Trying to get you to pressQuarter pounds.
Like dude, I'm only in thestore for a couple hours, like
backing you up a trip.

Speaker 3 (47:32):
Oh my god, I mean, you know what happened once the
most we've ever pressed.
It was in I want to say Godrich, and it was a half pound.
Some crazy guy brought a half.
No, dude, it was half quarters.
There were so many people wepressed a half pound and like
half quarters and quarters.
Oh yeah, dude.
But you know, there'd be timeswhere people show up with their

(47:54):
homegrown and you'd be like andagain they didn't trim it and it
was just very dry and you go topress and you get nothing.
There's been times like that manLike you're, just like dude
like we only do but people keeptheir pancakes Too.

Speaker 2 (48:07):
Yes, I was gave to them, yeah cuz you know, you
never know, you can makesomething with that, if you have
enough of those pugs for sureyou just put in some coconut oil
, yeah.
Interesting man.
I've never done that.
It's seems like a lot of fun.
I think we tried.
Well, whatever one day we will,I will say these guys want to

(48:27):
make some, some rosin actually?

Speaker 1 (48:29):
Yeah, I don't, I think so with with the part of
the yeah, we're doing a seed oil, so part we're gonna chop down
at least one of these and freezeit my deep freezer, and how to
say wash it and at least seewhat it turns out as well.
You got bags?
