PLEASE....Whats the secret!
I look in my loft every day and ...Nothing!
Hows it done?
Please!
I think you will find that it really is not as easy as some of the ebay sellers would have you believe. Cobras, for example, require very exact temperature and humidity to get a pure 148 and if that temperature drops by even two degrees it can cause a Cobra 19! On top of the Temperature and Humidity Control, of course ALL CB Trees require Hydroponic Lighting, constant controlled watering and special feed (I believe handful of Ground Capacitors daily, with 3 grams of powdered transistor once a week is the recommended program).

So you can grow a small Cobra Bush at home, but it takes a bit of work and planning and it is not a case of "Chuck a few Cobra Seeds at a Grow-bag and wait".

If you want to Grow Jentecs then I believe they're what is called a "Sport" of the common 148. Sometimes called a "Hybrid". The usual way is to add some Liquid-Nugent to the growing compound and hope for the best. If you get it right, one or two of the crop may turn out to be "Sport" Jentecs.

Allegedly, there is one ebay seller who has managed to grow a PURE Jentec tree behind her cooker as she has sold about a half dozen that were allegedly "Found behind the cooker". She claims she "knows nothing about CBs but knows a man who does" and I THINK she lives in a bit of a growing community because we have also seen ebay listings for high-spec Cobras that "the cat brought in" (obviously the cat has found these in neighbourhood growing patches).

As far as I know, Cobras do not grow in-the-wild in the UK.
Look's like something you could smoke ... would one be dreaming wild dreams about the latest Yaesu 9900000000000 ;) Can't do in my country, illegal ... maybe in the Netherlands?
