Turtle ran 105 phenos with the Green Dog team. Six made the final cut.
The reason wasn't yield or structure. Keegan set one rule: if it's not better than Purple Sticky Rice, it doesn't get garden space. Doesn't matter how many A's or A minuses it pulled. When your competition is already that high, you can't afford to run it.
Turtle breaks down the whole hunt. Why the 30s hit hard for three rounds and then fizzled by the fourth. Why 69 looked like nothing early and became the one he's most excited about. Why you have to run a pheno three or four times before you trust it. And the moment Keegan and Drew sat him down and told him they didn't want their name on 20 of his strains, because people know who grows his weed and they'd get judged for it.
He also gets into showing up with 60 clones when he was told to run all of them, why every seed in a pack is its own snowflake, and what he actually wants from anyone who bought one: if you got a pack, bring him on the journey.
