Yep, he will make it worth your while to join his service. I have thought about it but I don’t run enough to make it worth it.

Oh shit, I should have said that. Dm him on IG, he said his email is screwing up that’s connected to Strainly.

Two things to contribute to this thread. First, watch out for hop latent viroid (HpLVd). I had only ever run seeds before using strainly. Had never run a single clone besides my own keeper phenos. I got clones from mamafunk a while back when she was still shipping to the public, and noticed some of the strains were lanky, easily snapped, and grew in a funny way. I had something like 8 of her strains. Got freaked out after learning about HpLVd and killed all her genetics besides wedding cake (they were all still in veg at this point). Got most of my genetics tested soon after for HpLVd from Dark Heart Nursery's testing process, and one of the strains I had grown from seed was flagged as positive. This strain was bunched up close to some of mamafunk's genes in a veg tray.

No hate towards mamafunk. It's a small chance, but it could have simply had the viroid since birth, since the viroid has been shown to be transmitted at a very low % rate through seeds. Even if I did get it from her, I don't think she knew she had it and was shipping them out anyway. It can be hard to spot, especially so in veg, and most big clone producers like her only ever have vegged plants around. Not many flowering rooms.

To anyone buying new genetics though the form of clones, I recommend you put the new plants in quarantine while you send off leaf samples to dark heart and test them for HpLVd. It's cheap and relatively quick. Just find the info on their site and email them, etc. Or don't use them, use some other lab. Google around and you can find multiple labs offering this. This isn't an ad for dark heart. It's just my personal experience.

Second thing I wanna add is just a small shoutout. 'Allegiance Farmz' was pleasant and easy to work with. Got my seeds in good shape in original packaging with tracking, and they were kind and responsive.

Good luck and much love to you all! Keep reporting your experiences and let us all know who to trust and who to stay away from.

It's from dirty or non sterile mechanics in clone room, could be receiving or sending, and it also occurs 8 percent of the time in seeds. Been around for a long time, odd it's the newest excuse to come along lol.
The best way to control the spread of HLVd is to get rid of infected plants as soon as HLVd is detected. If this is not an option (because you want to save the stock plant, for example) viruses and viroids can generally be eliminated through heat and cold treatments of meristem via tissue culture.

Haven't come across anyone using it as an excuse, not sure what you mean. But yeah, I read all about it and updated my general IPM procedures. Clippers for each mom, wash downs, disinfectants, etc. Pretty easy to beat. Just wanted to warn people who think that mites and powdery mildew are the only things to scope for with clones.
