Ive had emails from Attitude saying if i sent for seeds from them they are sure i would enjoy my experience with them, i think they just play it cool as they never know who they are talking too online with emails.
I did call PUKKA seeds one time to complain cos i got 7 results from 10 abut 2 were male, the guy was very cool on the phone and sent out over $300 worth of good beans but he did look to see i had infact made many orders from him the past and was not just chancing my luck, he sent out good stuff.
But do we really know what we are getting ? ive grew shit many times and they all look different and they are meant to be the same strain, but the leaves and height and bud are all different, are the people who make up the packets of seeds always going to be 100% ? or just like us are they also a bunch of stoners ???
some breeders do it on purpose there should be around a 75% mark though. they leave the variation so its harder for other breeders to copy their stock unless they know their shit. its on the nice rare occasion that a breeder will put out a 100% stable version (though there is not really possible but they can get pretty damn close
another thing is grow environment and shit like that maybe some got colder being further away from the light stretched and caused the plants to look different. and there will be quite some varyation in some landrace strains they are stable to an extent but there basically controlled wild plants in most cases untill a breedeer stabilizes it propperways.
just tell them you got a bunch of smashed seeds man then they should replace them
YOUR A DICKHEAD I WISH NEGATIVE REP WAS STILL HERE.
honesty is the key. nobody likes liars and i believe that Karma can be a bitch, seriously though its cos of people pulling that shit that seedbanks and breeders are reluctant to resend their seeds out to legitimate causes.
besides they send them protected and most seedbnks know how well they sent their shit too. they also know what their own beans look like so dont even go there. anyone thats growing a strain knows what the seeds from that generation/strain look like. (basically if i was an owner and knew the beans shoulda been safe id tell you to get lost.
like i said dont rip them off their not stupid.
I have said that same basic thing many times. There are strains that to many here seem to be old and obsolete and outdated and because of they the new ones have to be better so the old ones drop in sales and also over time in price but their genetic quality has not dropped, they are still as good today as they ever were and much to the amazement of some they can be as good to even way better than the hot ticket flavor of the month that most everyone is drooling over.
 
The other one is newer strains that just are not yet well known or may have been around a while but while still very good sound reliable strains never hit the top three so they never gained the recognition they deserve or the following that should go with it so their prices are low.
 
Some people are only out for Mr. Toads Wild Ride but if someone has a specific need or purpose or just preference to fill and that is their main, number one and only goal there are some really good deals to be found and some include some in the very lowest levels of pricing and many in the lower middle to upper middle pricing range.
 
You do not have to pay through the nose to get something you actually need though it is likely in many cases you may have to pay through the nose to get something you only want.
too true lol. but then we all have our desires right lol.
