In over seven years of doing this and accumulating over 20,000 customers/growers over the years, I have never run into somebody quite like this.

I am posting this entire story because I am being harassed on Google reviews and on Facebook by Colin Keck, who placed an order on this website under the name "Fuck You". I didn't like the vibe so I canceled the order. I reserve the right to refuse business from anybody who doesn't act right from the start.

In the world of cannabis cultivation, few topics spark as much debate as autoflowering strains. Let's cut through the hype: autoflowers are a cleverly marketed hustle, primarily pushed by European seed banks to lock growers into a cycle of endless purchases.

Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome C.H.S. is B.S. Modern medicine often moves quickly. A clinical observation becomes a hypothesis, a hypothesis becomes a paper, and before long that paper becomes a diagnostic reflex. But when the foundational evidence is thin, repetition can substitute for proof, and speculation can harden into certainty.

Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome—CHS—is a case study in how that process unfolds.

Today, patients presenting with cyclic vomiting who admit to cannabis use are frequently told they have CHS. The diagnosis is often delivered with confidence. Cannabis is declared the cause. Abstinence is prescribed as the cure.

But when the history of CHS is examined carefully—chronologically, not retrospectively justified—the credibility of the diagnosis becomes difficult to sustain.

Robert Clarke and Todd McCormick sit down with First Smoke of the Day to talk about the real history behind cannabis, from the early days of Hashish to the evolution of genetics, cultivation, and medical research that shaped today’s industry.

In this deep-dive conversation, Robert and Todd share firsthand stories about the origins of hash culture in America, the global journey to preserve plant genetics, and what the future holds for growers, breeders, and cannabis education.

This episode is for every cultivator, breeder, and enthusiast who wants to understand where the culture came from and where it’s going next.

“Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.” ― Hippocrates

I am going to share with you my recipe for health and well-being. Over 20 years ago I was already rather high and staring at my Marinol bottle, earlier that day I had just used an A/B two-part epoxy earlier that day to fix something in my house, and it got me thinking about how cannabis works to help and heal our bodies. 

If cannabis was approaching you with all of it’s healing powers, in one hand would be the trichomes that contain the cannabinoids and terpenes, and in the other hand, would be the hemp seed, with its complex proteins and perfect balance of essential fatty acids.

In this episode, I interview Todd McCormick, who has over 40 years of experience in the garden. We discuss how modern breeding methods are transforming old-school genetics and what that means for the future of cultivation.

Northern Lights is easily one of the most popular cannabis varieties in the world. Initially bred in and around Seattle by a small group of growers in the 70’s, it quickly turned into an international phenomenon. 

When the cannabis taxonomy was first being written in 1753, Carl Linnaeus was essentially aware of only one type of cannabis: the European hemp variety of Cannabis that he added the suffix “sativa”, which at the time simply meant to grow or to sow. This type of cannabis was used industrially for ropes, cloth, paper, paints and varnishes, but surprisingly, not for the drug content.
