Can I get 100 seeds?

I see I see. Makes perfect sense.
Best of luck man!
When you see a picture of Table Rock in the background and a distinct, white-trichome monster flower in the foreground, please realize that you are being scammed.
The CBD Inc. seeds are being sold in a typical pyramid scheme. CBD Inc. ----> Point3 Farma ----> thousands of âbrokersâ---->customer. Best way to shield yourself from a lawsuit in legal transactions (consumerâs detriment); also, best way to shield yourself from arrest when operating in illicit markets (fall guyâs detriment).
If anyone has actual CBG seed from CBD Inc. immediately available, please contact me via email. seth@jackhempicine.com. We can sequence a seedlingâs genome in a couple days and let the appropriate people know whatâs going down if my suspicions are correct (CBD seed being sold as CBG); if it is actually CBG, we can tell you if it is a knock-off or derivative of our work (i.e. unstable), feminization rate, etc. If it truly is a novel, feminized pure CBG variety, Iâd gladly report that as well. I think our entire breeding team would breath a sigh of relief to find out the existing hemp market has other players trying to do good chemotype work instead of just bastardizing ours for a quick buck.

please let us all know what you find out with sequencing, im sure alot of people will pump the brakes once they see what theyâre actually planting.

Is seed genome sequencing something you guys offer on the side? Like could I pay to have specific seeds analyzed and a summary drawn for me with the conclusions of the sequencing?

Thats going to be the future
No need to grow hundreds of thousands of seeds to find varieties, just test their genome.
I never realized they could tell if a seed came from their lineage, they must have a very specific genome marker they look for.

Well the entirety of the cannabis industry is changing rapidly. The 2018 farm bill is paving the way for full cannabis legislation is my opinion. Which is completely different than decriminalization. Itâs been a topic for literally decades and now coming to fruition.
For the last 80ish years cultivators could take any seed they wanted, grow it. Call it what ever they wanted, and no one but LEO could do anything about it.
Now that industrial hemp is listed as an agricultural commodity, there can be legal bite for selling not only ripped off genetics. But mislabeling a strain by name.
The rules of big agricultural are coming. Breeders that have spent years, even decades can now get legal protection for thier creations.
On that topic @seth have yall pondered a licensing agreements for cloning. Just like system administrators use for licensing software. It would make the process a lot easier IMO. Even if it takes an ISO certification on the books to ensure compliance.

We donâtâ3 reasons: capacity, legal issues, and ethical / functional considerations.
Our sequencer runs 24/7 on our work currently; weâll have another one delivered next spring to get caught up with our screening and cataloging needs.
Even if we had the capacity, I donât like the idea of sequencing outside material, unless for non-profit purposes and/or contributing to the larger body of science in a way useful to everyone. Too many legal implications, ethical issues, and accusations of being like Phylos, since thatâs exactly what their underlying business model actually was.
The final nail for us is one of results: everyone in the cannabis genomic space is still getting their feet under them. We have looked into every possible genotyping service on the market; until late last year, little of the data had enough accuracy to even guess at functional features that growers and breeders would care about. The cannabis genome is a nightmare for bioinformaticists due to its highly repetitive (>70%) and polymorphic nature; to get truly accurate, useable results for this plant required two technologies that basically didnât exist until last spring (Pacific Bioscience Sequel IIâthe sequencer) (Agilent Systems Femto Pulseânext-gen DNA fragmentizer). The previous record for cannabis genome coverage was 100x which means that every A, T, C, and G that makes up the entire plantâs DNA was read 100 times. It took about a year for that project to happen. Our new system (and more importantly, the scientist making it happen) averages 145x coverage per run and we are able to crank out 4 whole genomes per week. That gives us the âwhat could beâ map of the organismâs DNA. The âwhat isâ (RNA expression measured over time in relation to environmental stimuli) still needs to be captured. Complicated shit compared to just growing some plants and taking notes. Even with all that information and a literal open door (funded) genomics lab at our land grant university, the technology and know-how are not in place to give people accurate answers to much of the information they would really want. That makes it morally problematic to offer anything like âgenomic servicesâ at this stage of our collective understanding.

Yes, the specific markers are heritable genes required for (1) our unique flowering response and (in the case of CBG) (2) specific non-functional CBDA synthases. These were filed separately with the USPTO with our utility patents for breeding techniques. Important to remember: you canât patent nature, but you can patent specific ways of harnessing nature that creates predictable outcomes if you are the first to do so. Itâs weird (big scheme of things), but rewards those with cool solutions a reason to share them with the public (for 20 years, then they are gifted to the world for any use). Not something we like to reference, but a mandatory component of joining the formalized economy.

Sounds like composition patents - 20 years.

We make seed for farmers and eschew entanglements with other entities. Seed plants are always superior producers to clones because of their unique root structure (tap root) and will always be cheaper to produce. Instead of licensing, we are putting our efforts into making natural seeds that perform exactly like a clone. All of the benefits of seed, plus the stability of a clone. Shooting for 2022, but donât hold me to it.

Well that would be an amazing feat. Will be following 
Where you manage to find the time to explain such wizardry to laymen like me is impressive on its own 
Thanks for all your contributions to cannabis (humanity) and our humble little extraction forum.

Still able to get in on this phenomenal opportunity?
price change but since I just realized who Seth, was
Have CBG seeds and seedlings for sale with COA and an option to add crop insurance. Weâre very excited to add crop insurance this year! Seeds are tested and verified testing with 16% CBG. Priced at $1 per seed and $1.50 for seedlings. Minimum order of 5,000. Would love to talk in more detail if anyone is interested. If you are please send an email to kyledev22@yahoo.com, and I will be sure to get back to you! Happy Friday yall!!
I bought my CBG from here.
White or
Stem cell for biomass
Paging Dr. GreenthumbsâŚ
CBG increases CB-1and CB-2 receptivity.
Henceforth making all other cannabinoids More thoroughly received into your receptors and therefore making all other
Cannabinoids More effective and more bioavailable for you earthlings!
To the Roots and Origins of all Wisdoms, Knowledge, and Information! Get some.

Without knocking your source, I would not pay that much because:
- Every CBD breeder that survived 2019 has a CBG strain for 2020.
- CBG market will flood like CBD did this year, dropping prices drastically (already happening).
- Iâve seen seed from reputable breeders for much much less.
Talk to the following companies before making a final decision (Iâm not affiliated with any of them):
Alterra Hemp
Windham Farms
Blue Forest
Liquid Mellow
Not sure if any of them will be right for you, but theyâve been fantastic to deal with in my 2020 research.
