I'm pretty late to the party but I sent him an email anyway...only 6 months later lol. I guess I'm too passive. The four I popped all showed balls but I didn't waste too much time or space so I just accepted the loss and moved on. I was super busy this summer with a renovation project so I wasn't paying attention to this thread. So much to pop I try not to get hung up when something doesn't work out but I really respect the way gu has handled the situation for you all. It's ironic how much shit I see ppl giving GPS online. I've used many services at this point and GPS downright has some of the best customer service, response time to inquiries, shipping speed, deals and the most important part, genetics!

But in actuality Gu did not go about the s1 ordeal very well at all, honestly. He only gave refunds to people that contacted him. He didn't mention it on the gps website, he never sent emails to the many folks that did buy the s1s and he even called members here out for mentioning that the seeds might not be what Gu thought they were going to be. Then to top it off, GPS, refunded a lot of people with nuggets and then later removed all nuggets from all customers so many folks lost money due to that. A member here lost like $450 because the vanishing nuggets.

If Gu/gps would have mentioned the bunk s1s on his site and emailed everyone that bought the bunk seeds I would still be supporting him and recommending gps to folks but I don't do any of that. Plus you add on the whole payofix debacle and it's all no bueno.

So many other seedbanks not doing that stuff for me to buy any more gps gear. I'll grow out the cookies and chem and bodega bbgum but not sure if I'll get to the iron horse, boomtown or deputy.

I see what you're saying and possibly misread the situation slightly at first. He is admitting the issue and comping people though right? It's not like he's telling people it's grower error so f off like some of these companies do when there are issues from what I can see. I don't know anything about this $450 member with vanishing nuggets so it's hearsay from my perspective until I learn more. The posts I've read so far where other customers are chiming in seem positive to me.

Anyway my experience has been nothing but pleasant dealing with GPS and the promos that are thrown out are the most generous I've seen, especially if you patiently play your cards right.

It is not hearsay though bro. It is all in this thread, lmao.

I've been following along since last year and was a big fan of gps, right up until this s1 shit happened.

Here let me fill you in to the last 9 months or so. Gu bought a bunch of seeds from some dude named Adam that Gu didn't even really know. Gu told people that the seeds were legit and everything would be solid just like gps strain. He totally put his name on those s1 seeds. Then it turned out those seeds were actually just bulk hemps seeds that the Adam dude scammed Gu with.

Gu came on here trying to say it was all rumors but people here weren't having that and continually called Gu out until Gu finally admitted they were bunk. Then Gu never posted anything on his website and told no one outside this thread those seeds were bunk.

Then he said he would only give replacements or nuggets unless you sent the seeds back to which you could get a cash refund. Most people took the nuggets as repayment. Well a couple months ago Gu wiped out all the nuggets from members because someone found a way to hack his nugget system, surprise surprise.

So if you didn't log on to rollitup during that time, like yourself, then you wasted a lot of time and energy growing bunk hemp seeds because dude couldn't be bothered to email his loyal customers.

So yeah, it is not hear say just because you didn't read through this thread bro. Cheers and hope the replacement work better for you.

Then add on the fact that many many members here have had the credit card hacked because of green points credit card processor, payofix.

It has nothing to do with hating on Gu. He did the damage to his own rep. If people want to give him a pass then that's on them. But as a business it is just not my cup of tea. So many people out here hustle seeds now why bother with the bullshit?

All of this is 100% true. I read the entire thread. Gu lied and posts got deleted. Still going to grow my gps eventually, but I don't need anymore stardawg crosses even if they're $10 a pack. I already have enough. Also, all his moms are from dispensaries in denver. I could just get those myself. The drama in this thread and the occasional GPS pics will keep me coming back though, lol. I will post pics once I grow them. I also plan to spread some F2s.

Agree that I don't need anymore GPS.

Well I'm gonna keep popping various breeders' gear from my vault and look for winners. I'll post the GPS stuff here. The people growing out GPS regs seem pretty happy with the quality (myself included). As far as ethics go, there are some valid points and the beauty of a free market is that you get to vote with your dollars and support another company if you hate greenpoint now.

All facts GU biggest mistake was not informing everyone up front about the S1s ... I think pay o fix is less of an issue than what everyone makes it out to be but the S1 deal he handled wrong hopefully he learned from it, i can only guess he did it that way to minimize his financial loss but the fact that it’s still brought up daily shows it was the wrong way to go about it mainly because there are still people who probably haven’t gotten around to growing out those seeds so it’ll keep coming back to haunt him periodically, it’s not to late he could still put up a disclaimer on his website which he should consider.

If he had learned from it he wouldn’t be willing to drop a MAC1 cross without testing it.

Everyone should stop buying Gu's seeds now because this hater seems to have his panties in a bunch all the time. What's the problem, douchebro? Slow news day for ya?

Well in his defense I did see cap say that mac doesn't breed well on IG. gromer backed it from what appeared to be his personal trials. But I see where gu is coming from too. It'd be like gu saying cop chem doesn't breed well. Only he can make more copper chem beans effectively lol

I guess time will tell if the gps mac crosses are shit or not.

I've got my own macs to play with from the 2nd drop :hump:

Guess I will have to find out myself how they take a chuck

Bro, there are other breeders in Colorado (located out of Boulder) that were one of the first to drop x MAC male crosses before Cap even started to tell people not to make f2s publicly. Gu is filling the void in the market for MAC - there's just too much crazy demand for it (and the strain is hype imo). Can't blame the guy for supplying something that a lot of people are asking for.

Not just Gromer. I’ve seen many people on IG say they got shit from the MAC1. And it’s not every plant, the MAC1 cut seems to have the biggest problems.

It’s only the MAC1 cut that has issues. Although @Bodyne knows someone who has made crosses with MAC males that were also messed up. May be hit or miss depending on the plant used.
