No knock on BOG. I ran a bunch of his stuff about 20 years ago. I had a Blue moon Rocks that was very nice. His line just hasn't changed much. Some will say that is good...others..not so much. Again...we all approach this differently and that is what makes it interesting.

Time will certainly tell on the seed venture mentioned above..I do wish him well....but face it...everyone is fuckin around with the exact same (often unstable) genetics and when you have an entire room/rooms of such offerings all playing together...umm...yeah. Look at everything out there now that is popular that originated from a hermie plant and was still taken forward by someone and dropped into the pool. It's no wonder we are seeing these traits arise more and more as time goes along. No one is truly making anything new...and everyone playing on both sides of the game is at risk of tossing out/finding plants that will hermie in the mix...especially as these same selections get crossed and crossed and crossed and crossed and crossed again and again and again.

doesn't ease the sting for those caught in the trap right now....but it is what it is. For me....seeds are for personal grows and clones are for slingin'. I never had a single herm back in the day when trays of clones from tested/proven cultivars were the norm in my space. I also never ran seeds in that space. Now...well.....all I'm running are these fems and I am on vigilant watch like the rest of ya with these poly-poly-poly-poly "hybrids".

Either way...it may be time to break out the STS again.

Anyone else hearing back from Rusty? This dude is pissing me off.
My first email to him was early November and Im STILL waiting for resolve.....but he got all the time in the world to hit me with sales promo emails. My patience is officially at ZERO. Do I need to start getting shitty at this point, because Im about to tell this motherfucker to eat my dick. :finger:
I'm in the same boat.
He always takes care of it eventually and with integrity.
That's if you can handle the sheer amount of patience required.
He has gone ghost though as of late. I have never called or text. Just email.

You are not alone.
I have given up on Rusty and his seeds.
Told me he would replace the albert supertramp on December 28 and today is Jan 21.
He isn't playing the seed game right..
Gonna sell seeds well you better have excellent customer service or your biz will fail large.
I don't care what he has for sale ..or in the future no more money from me to him.
Am done....moving on to sellers who stand behind what they sell....
Thats the last email I got from him was Dec. 28th as well. I replied that I didnt care to wait til spring for PRK pack replacements so just send me whatever you got available. Been crickets since. Keep in mind that I've been in communication with him trying to get replacement packs since the beginning of November and Im still waiting for resolve. To add insult to injury, out of the LVTK pack I planted (7 in the pack) only 4 of them germinated and 3 of those 4 were garbage mutants that went in the trash after almost 2 weeks of trying to get them to grow.

The one LVTK I have left dubbed "Destiny's Child" is almost worthless as well since it is really slow to grow and not a very happy plant. I planted 4 Mimosa almost 2 weeks after the LVTK and the Mimosa are all far bigger and healthier than the LVTK now.
Heres a pic of the 4 Mimosa showing their age difference against "Destiny's Child" when they were first planted.

I think the issue is this is alot of work. People think it's easy reversing females and pollinating them accordingly. Timing is everything and keeping everything separate is a job in itself on top of keeping the plants healthy and alive.
Bottom line I think is breeders get comfortable and lazy.
There looking for plants that reverse easier and maybe in some cases reverse with just light stress. It all comes down to less work for the breeder but I think that's where people are having issues.
A plant that would never herm under normal or even small amounts of stress conditions is not gonna produce hermie offspring just as much as a Male female breeding project.
If a plant has those tendencies its gonna show.
The breeder knows the mother being used is doing it and doesnt care. No reason to for them cause it's easier to get pollen from that plant.

Any plant putting out herms should be removed and that should be the end of it IMO.

If a breeder ever put out fems that turned out to be Male no way in hell I would ever pop another pack from that breeder. It shows they have shotty quality control and who knows what else stray female pollen is contaminating there work areas.

I wouldn't blame s1s and fems in general I would put the finger on the breeders that keep using females that are to easy to reverse or throw balls on there own.

Im also not the only one to experience the exact same mutant issues in the LVTK either.
give it one or two more days, if nothing, hollar. You can do my Arcata Ghost, I'd like to see a better grower than me do em. Ive done something CV last, say 3 of 5 rounds, my lemon crash og looks decent be done in 3 weeks. Ive got nanner kush s1's and some nanner crosses, so Im prolly good on ghost for a minute. Only 5 though, no extras in that pack. Wished I had more to share with Blammo. Maybe you can make beans, lol. Just sayin.

Im very appreciative of your generous offer, but I've still got like 6-7 packs of CV gear left. I had 13 packs total at one point before I started giving them away for free in the Whorehouse thread in my signature. I really dont *need* any more seeds, but its the principle of the entire situation. Rusty is on some bullshit and I've personally grown tired of it. I'll never spend another dime on his gear, I'll never put another one of his strains in my grows ever again, and I'll be sure to share my experience with him and his seeds as well. Matter of fact, this last janky ass LVTK is going in the trash where it belongs.

Hermies also mean a couple months totally wasted time, Space, effort and hope! Nervous and pissed after while.

Cannaventure seeds for wrens and Verioles. Done!

Never had one damn hermie from Peak Seeds BC, DNA, BombSeeds, Dutch Passion, Seedsman or even Nirvana! Only 'Mercian with no damn hermies has been BOG!
I've had herms in dutch passions blueberry multiple times, nirvana strains, dna sour kosher hermed but was great smoke no seeds. It happens.

Ok so he's using me to talk to you guys, says he doesn't do forums. He said he went back to October in his inbox and isn't finding your messages. He asked me to have everyone with CV problems to message CannaVentureseeds.com inbox so he can get you guys taken care of.

I grew LVTK outdoor last year and it turned out great. This year I got the three trainwreck crosses for outdoors, but it looks like they are very unstable...Anyone else grow CV gear outdoors with good or bad results? Im thinking there is less chance for problems in the outdoor enviroment.

lmao....thats where my first initial email went to and went unanswered (and still unanswered almost 3 months as of today). It wasnt until I emailed him at the venturedesigns addy after waiting a week for a reply back from the website email before he got back to me. That dude is on some serious bullshit. I have every email ever sent between the two of us.
I know your just the messenger @macsnax but fuck Rusty and his gear.

Yeah I didn't really mean to get in the middle of all this. There was 3-4 of you trying to get a hold of him and I figured I could get in touch. Anyway I think I did as much as I can, I'm going back to the sidelines.

That sucks man I'm really surprised to hear this about rusty. He's always shown me top notch customer service. Just for the hell of it i texted him and got a response in like 2 hrs. He must not like you red lol
