STRAINLY

I was thinking this exact same thing the other day. It sucks to not be able to trust your seeds to produce clean plants, even if the infection rate is just 5%, that's a landmine that could go off at any time and ruin a collection unless serious precautions are taken.

A friend of mine has gotten cuts straight from Beleaf that have been infected lol

I tossed the Blue Cookies from Prestige Clones. Was pretty clearly HLVd positive to the eyes.

Thats good to know..I was checking out Presitge and looking at their reviews- they're selling cuts cheap and got strain like grape gas so im sure he is selling a lot. Pretty sure Prestige is reselling cuts that they bought of strainly themselves(just follow the reviews and its pretty easy to tell where cuts came from)so that in itself is pretty telling and alarming
 
I actually ended up with a free breeders cut from Beleaf one of the White Truffle crosses. I wasn't even sure if I should take it because "free" is a lot less cool with this viroid going around. It looks pretty shabby right now due to spending TEN DAYS in transit in a "2 day" Express envelope, so I have it isolated and will grow it out for a month, then test one of the lower leaves. I have a tight little group of friends who also grow and share cuts, and everyone is now officially freaked out after that positive test and are getting all their cuts tested. I hope all those folks on strainly really are testing, this situation is out of control at the moment, we just don't have enough of the right people taking it seriously. Beleaf and Cookies and ANY breeder/clone seller need to start using testing as a selling point for their product AND provide proof of regular testing-this should be all over their Insta. The problem is, not enough people are concerned enough to force their hand yet.
 
I had read somewhere that in order to fully clean you need to meristem it. Not sure how true that is but on side note I have seen plants come straight from State Genetics and have been infected. They supposedly do tissue culture.

I'm really close to buying Pigtail's grapes n cream by Cannarado. It's a tissue culture from Phinest.

Anyone familiar with Phinest?

Found this place that uses the Phinest cut also

I got cuts from Pigtails they are CLTVTD of pineapple pez and unrooted snip of grape gas. Al I know is the CLTVTD cuts are clean, don't think pigtails is an advanced grower she just has a few small tents and sell cuts she picks from CLTVTD adoption from dispensaries in Cali that she picked for like $20 and under and resells them for close $200 a cut. The pez had few yellow spots on it, seen healthier cuts but it bounced back fine, only reason I bought from her or even strainly is because they were CLTVTD cuts which are supposed to be legit and clean, they pez came with a certified CLTVTD tag.
 
Pigtail is pretty large actually. Just launched own website as well.

She does auto and photo breeding and sells seeds too.

My PKB from her is phenomenal. Only reason I'd return is how good that cut is.

Oh, yeah idk about any of that just the cuts seem legit. PKB is a monster and she does appear to get legit cuts so if they are in fact Phinest tissue cultures then I'm gonna grab one lol.

Wait, these viruses are being passed on through seed as well? If that's the case, its like a pandemic, there would be no stopping it, it will just keep popping up forever from here on out... am I wrong? Well this is seriously depressing. I guess Monsanto will step in with hpvld resistant strains to sell once this burns through the community :-(

Its estimated that 10% of seed from infected plant will be also infected. I've popped seeds in the past that have had that viroid/dudded look to them, back then I didn't know anything about the viroid I just thought it was shit veg growth. I've also had plants finish from seed in a pheno hunt that have the duded look when finished, lose, hardly any trichs.

Ya they can it not a high % but its happening...I've heard of people only doing seed runs of seed junky beans and no clones in their garden and HpLVD popped up, its fucking nuts.
 
The ‘chem 91’ that high grade herb sent me definitely doesn’t look like the chem 91 pics he has, the whole plant has variegation and thin leaves. I don’t know what it is but it’s almost 2 weeks into flower so we’ll see. https://www.rollitup.org/t/6-strains.1076957/#post-17008865I
The Tahoe og took a while to root and start growing but its a nice looking plant, no variegation. It took too long and didn’t make the flower tent this time, plus only one of them rooted.

I looked at pigtails offerings and I think they are getting cuts at a dispo in the sfv. I have got the same cuts from phinest as well as the ones from purple city and haven’t had any dudding problems at all
