Dont care to argue on this site. You do you bro
Feel free to post up some actual growing photos, room pics, breeding projects, chemovars, cultivars or the 3rd one I have already forgotten......fucking old brain is full of useless info.....sometimes hard to remember new info 😉

How bout some pluckin of eggs?

This is your brain. And this... is your brain on eggs. Any questions?

I asked for another fallacy and you type away with a head red as a beet to provide me with 5. Excellent work! I underestimated you.

You missed a few key distinctions again, but that's okay. Let's break it down step by step so everyone can follow along and see where the reasoning goes off track.

Ad Hominem, False Analogy, Appeal to Popularity, Straw Man, and Appeal to the Dictionary.

First, opening with "intelligent sounding assembly of blather" doesn't actually address the argument. It's just dismissing the response personally instead of engaging the point about why precise vocabulary matters in technical contexts like horticulture and chemistry. That's a classic way to sidestep substance.

Second, comparing "strain" to SCUBA or "flipping" plants doesn't hold up. SCUBA is an acronym that filled a real gap and has no conflicting scientific meaning. "Flipping" is harmless casual shorthand. But "strain" actively confuses because it's a microbiological term improperly applied to plants. Botanists and scientists reject it for cannabis, preferring cultivar (for genetics) or chemovar (for chemistry). Sources from Royal Queen Seeds to PubMed articles call out "strain" as misleading and incorrect for plants, especially when it enables marketing fake diversity.

Third, claiming slang automatically becomes "accepted terminology" if used long enough mixes up everyday language evolution with scientific standards. Dictionaries do record common usage, sure, but science demands accuracy to avoid real-world harm. like consumers getting duped into buying the same 3 terpene profiles under hundreds of fancy names. Popularity doesn't make it right in a lab or regulated industry.

Fourth, the whole efficiency argument twists the original point. Nobody's demanding perfect formality in casual chat or household nicknames. The issue is clear communication in discussions about chemistry and breeding, where sloppy terms let breeders and sellers fool people. Pretending it's about "quick grab the turd gun" levels of urgency misrepresents the concern entirely.

Fifth, leaning on Merriam-Webster as proof ignores that descriptive dictionaries track how people talk, not how experts define terms for precision. In botany, "strain" isn't accepted, it's criticized as bro-science leftover that stuck in underground culture but never graduated to actual science.

Don't feel bad, man. A lot of folks cling to old lingo because change feels like devaluing what they're used to. But facts are facts real progress in cannabis means ditching misleading terms for chemovars and evidence-based classification.

Appreciate you keep supplying these teaching moments because it's entertaining watching the defenses pile up. What's next? Loving the pattern!

Add something useful.

For anyone curious, here's a solid read on why "strain" is botanically wrong and chemovar is better:

Do you know your cultivars from your chemotypes? How about your strains from your chemovars? Discover the meaning of these important cannabis terms.

The science backing the limited chemical diversity: those PLOS ONE and PMC studies I linked earlier.

Let's get back to actual chemovar discussion if anyone has real input.

Me like weed. Me grow weed. Me like to make grunting noises with other growers about what we are doing with weird plant.

Was another fella around these parts preaching who was all about this 7 Club and if I remember correctly......zero real grow rooms or plants. Just super zoomed in on tiny as larf 🤣
Enjoy the Farm!!!

Ad hominem sidestep when you have nothing of value to add. Is that the new line dance you all are practicing? Can anyone add something of value about the topic? Because it doesn't seems like it.

Well, when you're not hung up half the time watering the salt out of hoarding root balls and inspecting your plants for bugs holding a magnifying glass like Sherlock Holmes, you've got plenty of time for internet trolling.

The strain is called scatological humor and is very much the same category as the potty humor that young children obsess over during Freud's "anal stage" roughly ages 1–3, when they find anything related to poop, farts, or toilets hysterically funny as part of development. Most kids largely outgrow it as their primary source of laughs by school age, moving on to more sophisticated humor. But plenty of adults never fully leave it behind. Can be a indicative of arrested development in adults.

I'm 59 and farts and fart humor are still quite homorous to me. Here... pull my finger! The biggest mistake you'll ever make is thinking you can judge my character from that, or anybody else who giggles at farts, for that matter.

And over sensationalizing a series of emoticons on a public forum may be indicative of mommy not hugging one enough and trying to compensate by over exaggerating one's own intellect and worth hoping to garner her favor no matter how futile. Keep trying.

Exactly, classic attention seeking behavior. And everyone loves fart jokes, even if they don't admit it. 😁
