Can you guys remind me why he was .. retiring?
Was it a death in the family or a health issue?
Times like these.. no one wise with that kind of following would just stop.

Yea. Glad i didnt spend aton..on any of my thug stuff.

Just false hype.

He didnt lie tho technically ..he said he was done..but doesnt mean someone else cant use his pollen. In the comments he says he has alot of pollen even lol.

What a joke.

We knew that kinda all along, we all brought it up awhile back even joking a bit. I am glad I never paid over $80 a pack. I look at it as with all the hybrid crosses available in seed packs these days, people should NOT be paying more than $100- $150 on a pack. There's so many options, and chances are the hype strain that a person really wants and is about to drop $500+ on>he or she can get the same genetics or a similar cross/lineage from another breeder for a fraction of the price. I'm done giving a shit and trying to explain it people, it's their $$$, spend whatever way they please.

Agreed 100%.
The most I've spent was $150 on CSI Humboldt's Living Dead Girl (Patient Zero x Forum GSC) and I plan to breed heavily with them for a lifetime worth of seeds.

That what I'm saying...if you have the space you can just chuck and make crosses yourself that will come out just as good if not better than most of the packs of "elite" genetics.

I was just causing thru oes, neptune and some other seedbanks and there alot of new breeders listed. I checked out a few and sure enough, one so called "breeder" is using a pure michigan as his male in all his strains another is using a pbb male in all their crosses, charging like $150 a pack, lol.. Someone making crosses in their basement and what these new listed breeders are doing is absolutely no different.

Curious what you make of people selling packs crossed with thug pug strains for what I’d consider a reasonable price (under $100) - like big pond genetics Is one I stumbled upon recently. Totally think I may just be buying into the thug pug hype but I am tempted to get some to grow out in the future given I won’t have capabilities to make my own seeds anytime soon. Like would you say the quality of the “breeders” will be significantly worse than actually reputable people, or still worth it to get crosses I’m intrigued by made by these newer “breeders”?

A 5 year old could take pollen and put it onto a female plant to produce seeds. What most people are doing these days is not breeding, they’re seed makers essentially. They get couple packs from thug pug knowing his stuff is in demand and pick a male with zero sort or direction or goal in kind other than to make seeds. I have no issue with this practice, the issue I have is with the pricing of this type of seed. They should be 20-30$ a pack at most as it is super inexpensive to produce a seed like that. Most of the desired Clones are cheap and if you’re just making seed you don’t need anything fancy for lights grow medium etc.

In my mind Breeding implies you have a goal/destination or purpose in mind with your pairings. If someone said I am going to make a PBB line that has the desired aesthetic look that people are into with the original PBB is present but with ramped up yield, mold resistance, bug resistance etc that would be something I’d be willing to pay for(assuming they were able to make it happen). Breeding a plant for purpose and with a goal in mind takes years and years, lots of money, access to labs etc. The simple act or making seed is easy as hell and takes little time or effort.

I like to think of the current pot seed game like people rescuing these street dogs that are 15 different breeds and naming each puppy like it’s some new breed. It’s a joke really
