He’s gone, folks. Another cannabis pioneer is history now. Peace for his family and friends.

Thank you for this thread, Pushrod Monkey. This tragedy happened just down the highway from me here in Ketchikan. If folks knew, if/when they find out his history he will get the credit he deserves after mostly keeping out of the spotlight until recently. You will be greatly missed DJ. RIP Jimmy.

Haven`t posted here in years and had to reregister. First read it early last weekend after coming here to look for anything about this. I've known DJ for decades but just in the last few years did we connect. He made a tremendous contribution to this cause......

I’ve been maintaining his IBL Durban since he had his health crisis in 2018. I always give credit to ACC as the source and make it clear he was the guy who brought it from Africa in 1979. But at least he went the way an HA would want to go.

I don`t get around much on the various platforms. Have any of the "heavyweights" mentioned this on other platforms? Mud Bight Delight, PePe and Indacouch favorites here with me.

Nobody has mentioned anything. And the ACC website is just a greeting page. I’m told by people who know that his son took over after the heart attack because Jim was just going to retire. First thing that was decided was no more regular seeds. Feminized only. But then Jim recovered really well and continued to be the old DJ but a private solo act and no ads or anything else. Absolutely word of mouth.

A friend down in the Mat Su is running his Dirty Jim and says it’s an incredible strain. MBD X Bruce Banner.

I hope and pray for his family. I also hope and pray that someone is looking out for this community.
On a side note, the location of the accident isn`t missed by me. Considering the tragedy, the location, to me seems perfect. That is the only thing about this that helps me with this loss. Peace

The night before I had him in my thoughts and new it was time to check in. I was pretty shaken by this news. Pisser

The accident happened right at the entrance to Mud Bight State Park. F##king A.

Just listening to the Potcast episode in with Heime Cheeba, created an account just for this thread. RIP DJ.

Do either of you know where you might still be able to pick up his gear? Seems such a shame that ACC seems to have closed now, would love to carry on the torch of some of his bits
