Can you really pull off a full harvest for under $500 AUD?

Wild Roo and the crew break down the ultimate 2026 budget grow build, showing how anyone, no matter their wallet size, can get a plant from seed to smoke.

No gatekeeping, no elitist gear lists, just real-world numbers and budget gear that actually gets the job done.

Expect plenty of banter, a few side quests, and some brutally honest talk about what you actually need versus what the industry tries to tell you that you need. This isn’t about chasing top-shelf flex—it’s about access, empowerment, and proving that growing your own should be on the table for everyone.

Pull up a chair for Australia’s home of cultivated conversation and have a yarn with us.

Because growing shouldn’t be a rich person’s game—it should be something any Aussie can have a crack at.

🌿 The Terpene Table – Aotearoa Takeover 🌿

The table goes trans-Tasman as our new monthly segment lands, with Tony from our Aotearoa dispensary stepping up to the mic as our official Kiwi correspondent. Each month, Tony brings us a fresh voice from New Zealand’s scene — and this month, he absolutely delivers.

Tony sits down with Dave from Off Grid Society — a glass art importer and reseller living the true off-grid lifestyle. Sun-grown, organic cultivation (allegedly 👀), deep roots in the culture, and a level of fitness that proves you can be seriously active while still loving your cannabis.

From glass artistry and sourcing unique pieces, to off-grid living and plant-first growing philosophies, this episode is packed with knowledge, laughs, and proper Kiwi flavour.

🎧 Tap in, roll up, and pull up a seat at The Terpene Table.

In this episode of The Terpene Table, The WRCrew sit down with Jessica Peros from The Green Room HQ — patient advocate, and voice within Australia’s medical cannabis space.

With roots in hydro and strong ties to the evolving legal industry, Jessica joins us for a candid conversation about the tension between legacy cannabis culture and the regulated medical market.

What does “supporting legacy” really mean?
Is the medical system giving enough recognition to the growers and communities who carried the plant through prohibition?
Can legacy knowledge truly integrate into the legal framework — or is it being replaced?

This is an honest, sometimes uncomfortable discussion about access, accountability, culture, and the future of cannabis in Australia.

No scripts. No softballs. Just real conversation.

We jumped back on the mic with Tony from Aotearoa Dispensary for a laid-back catch-up and a proper yarn. We touched base on what he’s been up to lately, how things are moving over in Aotearoa, and shared some solid insights and tips on how we can all keep pushing things forward. As always, there’s plenty of banter, a fair bit of digression, and some real talk about culture—what it means to us, where it’s at, and where we’d like to see it go. Just a good, honest chat with good people.

This episode was meant to be about LED lighting.
Timmy gives us the rundown on PPFD, DLI and CO₂ — then, like always, we digress into soil, coco, hydro, reading the plant, and why more light usually causes more problems.
Plenty for home growers in this one.

This week we sit down with DragonForce, an Australian cannabis breeder with a deep love for mutant genetics and the strange beauty of the plant.

In his first ever podcast appearance, DragonForce talks about how he got involved with cannabis, what pulled him toward breeding, and why the “freaks” — especially Freakshow — deserve attention, preservation, and respect.

We dive into mutant expressions, breeding philosophy, selecting the weird ones instead of culling them, and what it means to work with genetics that refuse to conform.

In this episode, the crew chats about the importance of knowing exactly what to expect from the genetics you're about to grow. We discuss why the environment dictates the result, and as usual, we digress. Always good value.
