This week on The Grateful Nerd Show, we linked up with BGG from Greenguy Genetics to break down his upcoming Star Wars-themed seed box set, dropping on May 4th. The timing isn’t accidental—this one’s clearly built for growers who appreciate a little galaxy-brained creativity in their garden.

Joining him was one of his testers—and a familiar name in the community—Jerbear, who brought a real grower’s perspective to the conversation. He shared firsthand experience running these genetics, what stood out during the grow, and what people can realistically expect if they get their hands on the box set.
