Welcome to the place where I say the stuff about the 420 bong-ripper weedz I grew.
Hi Friends!
WOW, 2020 beat the absolute shit out of me, and I’m definitely still hurting. But I know, at least for me, it feels like the worst of the collective hardship we are facing is behind us. Folks are getting vaccinated and beginning to socialize again. I hope you too are starting to feel better than you were a year ago, at least about some things.
I know not all of us made it to 2021 - we lost far too many of our loved ones and other wonderful people. But you have made it and I’m glad you’re still here. Let’s heal together.
Over the last several months I’ve been refining my grow methods, trying new equipment, learning new techniques, and gearing up for a great year of growing cannabis. 2021 is already shaping up to be a better year than I’ve had in more than a few (both in terms of my horticultural efforts and other personal endeavors), and I hope that’s true for you too. Hope – it’s something I’m surprised to realize I have again.
It is in the spirit of hopeful healing that I am proud to offer samples from my winter/spring 2021 indoor cannabis cultivation efforts.

Inform-o regarding weed strains you may have recieved:
Obama Kush
One of the few indica-dominant strains I really enjoy, this strain is a modern classic, much like the plant’s namesake. I find Obama Kush offers a powerfully physical, relaxing body high, without sending me to insta-snooze land. And yet it still has definite, strong Sativa notes that come through in the shape of a thought-expanding introspectiveness. It’s an excellent strain for those who appreciate cannabis for both its medicinal/therapeutic qualities as well as recreational enjoyment. This is a great late-evening strain for me, but one I also like at other times as well, as the physical effects help to melt stress out of my body. Great for watching cartoons, hanging out by the fire with friends, or a long soak in the tub (my personal suggestion), this strain is likely to appeal to a variety of folks turning to cannabis for any number of reasons. Solid gold. This particular phenotype has produced incredible looking buds, so frosty and purple… absolutely gorgeous.Laughing Buddha
A sativa-dominant strain, Laughing Buddha is a solid go-to smoke for me. It’s a blast of energy like I want, but I do feel the name is a bit of a misnomer, as the high leaves me feeling a bit more like a meditative, introspective Buddha, instead of the happy, filled with mirth Buddha, as I felt the name might imply. So not so much a party strain sativa, which might seem odd, but great for some solo time in the garden (my suggestion), or maybe a long walk of bike ride. And it’s almost without saying that it goes well with yoga or meditation.Bubblegum
Bubblegum is an evenly split 50/50 hybrid that isn’t too powerful in or overwhelming in any one direction. Instead, it’s the kind of high that’s nice and mellow and hits a little bit of every note you might want - good head space adjustment without becoming too distracting, moderately physically relaxing without going to snooze town. It’s not the kind of weed that’s going to knock you over your ass (like the Magic Medicine defiantly will): it’s a laid back, content to linger in the background, kind of high. I think this strain is going to be a real crowd pleaser. Pairs well with reading on the couch while listening to music - maybe a lazy Sunday afternoon session. As a quick growers note, this was my first try growing an auto flowering variety of cannabis and I’m pretty happy with how it turned out.Magic Medicine
A plant so nice, I grew it twice! And I’m very glad I did. This is one of my favorite strains ever: a lesser known, newer introduction by a small-scale grower of rare landrace and landrace-hybrid cultivars that are specifically acclimated for outdoor growing in Pacific Northwest climates. Truly unique! Unfortunately the farmer who produced this strain suffered devastating property destruction and crop losses from the 2020 Oregon wildfires, and has dropped of the map. I managed to take a cutting of the plant I grew outdoors last summer, and so was able to grow the strain a second time. I absolutely love Magic Medicine and I hope the farmer can make a comeback over the next year or so. A 100% Sativa cross between Panama Red and the Malana cultivar, strongly psychedelic, as far as cannabis goes. Excellent strain for making art/music and other creative stuff.Before You Leave...
Part of the purpose of this site is to serve as my own “Jon-brand” personal/professional networking platform. If you work in tech, I’d love to connect with you if we haven’t already. Regardless of your job, if you have received some of the weed I’ve grown it’s because I think you are a wonderful and awesome person. Thanks, and I hope you enjoy your cannabis.
