Re: what is the deal with my oaks?

Re: Weed Identification
i wish this thread was around before i bought my Celsius. everyone is spot on!
amazing stuff, definitly potent.... i went on a lil to heavy the first time and stunted my common but i learned from it. then the guys convinced me to get some blue dye and it sure does help.
