Danky Danny

Wuz good Mr. Danko?!?! My name is Jo-nathan you have to say it like that on your show, please thanks in advance. Just wanted to say I love your show. Keep up the good work your podcast is very informative. I’ve been growing for about two years now and been following your show ever since I’m in Virginia and I just wanted to let you know this podcast helped me grow some of best bud. I just wanted to ask a simple question on how do I get my nugs tight I go to these dispensaries and I see these tight nugs (sometimes) and was just wondering how does that happen? Is it the way the plant is grown or is it how it is cured if you could please answer my question on your next show I know this is a review page, but didn’t know where I can leave my question. Thanks again for everything y’all do. Stay safe and enjoy nature’s healing leaf, also I just wanted to know what was a good strain for patients with glaucoma? Again, thanks again in advance peace.
