To be long-winded and give you an example! Back in the 90s, I worked on the docks in Richmond, California! They were exporting Dodge quest minivans to China! Our job was to totally disassemble that van! Pull all the axles, drop the engine and trans. Axle, gas tank, wheels, and tires even pull the radios! All that was left was a Uni body shell and they would put all the other parts on a skid and load two vans worth at a time into a container where they would be shipped to China and reassembled over there! Went through all of that because the tariff on parts was a lot less than the tariff on a complete vehicle! Insanity! But it was a good job! and to add to that instead of just driving the vehicle on the ship and securing it, everything had to be containerized, and it was still the only way Chrysler could make any money! China has been murdering the auto industry with tariffs for a long time and they are about due for some comeuppance! Murdering more than the auto industry with tariffs!

I must hold my tongue. Not effecting me yet! China is laughing and taking advantage of the moment. Lots of countries doing deals there, going right around us. But I'm talking out of youtube brainwashing

So... with the taxes that Trump has put in place... your imports of seeds and other products like LED panels etc etc etc will increase seriously, right?

We've plenty of legit seedbanks and growing supply companies here even if we go full blown isolation from the world.

The karma is good throughout this transaction! Stock photos from the 'net. If indoors I hope they are miniatures and I pray for seeds. Top kushkak, middle Kohlm.

I really investigated before buying. They were collected from two different Afghan provinces. The collector is Baaba Qo if you care to goggle him or images. Another grower teased me with a link to a guy selling seeds out of Afghanistan but shipping through Pakistan. Was a total scam! But the plant Photos made me drool.

I don’t think where they ship from is a big deal! Real seed company shipped from the UK! Land race team ships from Athens, Greece! Or I think the guy said Italy sometimes! Mine came from Greece! But yeah, you have to watch out and use your best judgment! Maybe the Pakistani had to dart into Afghanistan, collect his seeds, and get the hell out before Al-Qaeda capped his ass!

Other than trying to germinate the coconuts! the land of no guarantees! Managed to get four to the finish line! Hoping to polish my weak germination skills a little this year! Fingers crossed!

HIGHLAND LAO - The one I didn't complete. Cutback twice and pruned alot. The more I did the more they filled the tent. Grown under 1000 watt HID workhorse. Never made it past five weeks. Photos dated. Key to growing is top early flip to flower around three weeks or LST horizontal across the room. Still have six beans, pray for seeds or trade.
