Meanwhile, stoney alpinist discusses a recent reset after a challenging run with rootbound plants in his autopots. • The Terp Therapist Showcase: Our guest breaks down his current tent highlights, including the PB and Derb (noted for its insane "frost rails") and his hunt for a truly offensive "pucker" sour profile in the Double OG Sour. • Landrace & Breeding Projects: Terp dives into his collaboration with Alebrije, working on the Chem Labrata x Purple Pakistani Citral Kush F2 generation. He also shares his excitement for upcoming projects involving Mexican heirlooms (Oaxacan and Colombian) to recapture that elusive, "happy giggly" old-school effect. • Craft vs. Dispensary Culture: The group engages in a passionate discussion regarding the state of the market, contrasting the THC-obsessed dispensary model with the nuanced terpene and flavonoid profiles prioritized by craft home-growers. • The Room Reset: tootall provides an update on his grow room construction, including framing and mudding, as he prepares for a fresh start with a new press. • Rapid Fire & Rituals: The episode wraps with the crew’s favorite media and "current favorite meals," ranging from Terp's chicken tortellini soup to stoney’s citrus butter pan-seared fish. Whether you are here for the technical breeding talk or the laughs, this episode is a testament to the community and the "circles" we build around a shared love for the plant.
