something i've wondered for a while....how in the fuck do active strains survive naturally in the filthy wild? aint no flow hoods, pressure cooking or pasturizing of substrates in mother nature, so why the fuck do we need to do all that stuff to grow healthy fruits? nearly every other type of mold is rampant, can germinate under the most unfavorable conditions, and yet in our hobby, one microscopic contam can and often does ruin everything. dirt in the grow room can ruin all your culture, yet our world is covered it in!
maybe the secret is to clone wild strains in hopes of taking advantage of the seemingly bulletproof genetics they possess? though if it were that easy, i assume it would be more talked about round these parts...

Mother Nature, she's a hell of a mom.

Well think about taking one of us from a desert climate like bullhead city Vegas or Phoenix and put us iin Alaska or someone from Alaska to one of those hot places we would have a difficult time adapting.... you're recreating their environment in a place with contams that aren't common or easily dealt with by nature, mushrooms can still grow in mold and other shit even in our houses but in the wild if you find a hundred shroom patch I'm sure there was probably 1000 more that died because of some unseen issue... we jar grain and spores to germinate so think about it if something gets in with the spores in such a tiny space it has more time to Fuck our shit up

Because nothing outside is sterile, least of all concentrated food sources. Once we start sterilizing shit we have to be careful with it. You also won't see huge flushes and canopies of cubes outside, and they'll be full of bugs, and they'll have been fighting bacteria and mold the whole time whether you could see it or not.
This is a bit of a silly question though.
