Yeah, cannabis seed banks can be a pain to order from. I’ve sent a lot of cash in the mail over the years…always make sure to get tracking. Their processor must have shut them down recently cus I ordered using a card a few months back. I think they got around it for awhile by having you call in and pay over the phone. It has gotten better over the years with all the bank transfer apps, but If you think cbd seller have it bad with processors, try talking to a seed bank owner.
I guess we won’t know how stable they are till someone grows them out, but I think the odds are good.
If they can’t even put a picture of real seeds and have to use one off of google. I’m sure there fake. We should have a seed verified sections as well.
Its not uncommon for multiple groups to be brokering seeds like these.
I called the number and talked to the guy on the phone. He’s down for me to come up and meet in person to grab the seeds. Thats a positive sign IMO. Besides a buck fifty for some CBG seeds with no MTA is worth the risk anyway, right?
Maybe I’ll send one to @seth if his offer still stands to sequence CBG genetics of mysterious origin.
mta = material transfer agreement; afaik, the seeds posted here can be used for breeding
dont know if the coa is stolen so much as it probably came from the original breeders collective out of colorado and a few different folks are brokering it. Not uncommon for one group to give their own name to a strain for marketing purpose. Sketchy in some ways sure, still thats the name of the cannabis seed game
And the chaos has begun. I’d be really curious to see a leaf sample test of this one…complete instability in the F2 is one of the byproducts of our breeding work and generally a tell-tale sign that someone is trying to make a knock-off in 6 months.
These are the seeds being run through Point3 Pharma as a pyramid scheme by CBD Inc. A kind member here sent us some for testing, results coming in soon. Social media is not being as kind, as evidenced by early adopters of the product.
That sounds about right. We picked up a few small packs of cbg seeds and each one had low germ rates, plenty of autos, and not sure on cbg content of the rest of them. If I get a few moms out of them, I’ll be happy. I didn’t pay much for mine, but this definitely sucks for farmers thinking they’re stable and making large purchases. I can vouch for Sensi Breaks CBG seeds, they test low but are very stable.
Unfortunately, I bought a pack of these H5 CBG before I found this thread. I started growing these out and they are definitely not stable. Some autoflower and some don’t. I’d be happy to send you a leaf sample or remaining seeds if you need more verification.
Sad to see La Plata Labs involved with this as they seemed reputable having won some cups and such. Plus, the Sunkissedseeds com site doesn’t even exist. If that doesn’t scream sketchy.
It’s a bummer that people are buying these seeds not knowing how unstable they are. But, there are high CBG moms to be found. 100 bucks for a high cbg mom is pretty reasonable, at least to me. I was one of the ones that bought some unstable cbg seeds. I planted a few hundred and just flower tested three last week. 2 were high cbg, 1 high cbd. I’m gonna do more testing to rule out high thc phenos, but I feel I got what I paid for, the knockoff/IP argument aside.
The people I feel for are the farmers. This is definitely gonna be the scam of the year, like @seth said. Anyone that bought these seeds to plant commercially are screwed. We need to be screaming this from the mountain tops.
