People love to talk, but people also have short memory, when I started growing 20 years ago with packs from seed shops in AMS and Cali, almost every seed was a reflection of the initial clone, and I know cuz I smoked the clones the seeds were made of.
Today it's a joke, I ran so much seeds in the past few years, nothing came close to 3 euro seed back then from AMS.
I fault the consumer, the lack of research and hype shopping just for a chance, but you don't buy a lottery ticket each day in these amounts so why would you buy a weed lottery ticket ?
CSI is not working lines and not breeding anything, just crossing clones.
The 5150 for example is a step in the right direction to uniformaty and breeding, which is what the consumer wants at the end, but it's still too little too late.
Seed Lines have to be worked hard in order to create homogeneous batches, every grower knows this.
Why bother when people pay top dollar for your first generation mixed up seeds ?
Why would u waste x3 of your time and money so people will pay same for it ? No business man will take this offer.
