When will people learn you can't just run around making statements about people and companies. I am sure there is a lawyer that would take this case since it is all in writing and on the Internet. Saying such things in person is very hard to prove but in this case it is in writing so the proof is here.
You really need to think twice before making a post like this, you can do harm to a really good company and that company may have employees who could loose their jobs if business goes down by making such a post as this one..
I would suggest next time when you want to make a post like this, stop and give it a hour and really think about the repercussions. I have found 9 times out of 10 I was glad I did not post what I wanted to while in a pissed off frame of mind.
does TGA send out testers? Probably have enough gardens in the krew to facilitate in house testing, especially since a lot of strains are coming from "affiliates" (I use quotes cause I couldn't come up with any other word at that moment, plus I don't know what he calls them personally.)I'm no expert, but I think it's pretty common practice for breeders to send out testers. At least American breeders..... can't speak for the Dutch and Spanish companies.
Is there an American breeder that doesn't use testers and does everything in house?
I did not say I was a lawyer. I am just saying you can't run around posting trash about companies. They can come after you but I doubt this seed company would.You are obviously not a lawyer, and have no idea what defamation of character nor what would constitue an opinion, whether negative or positive would or would not be protected speech. Funny enough on a cannabis board where it's federally illegal.
While I think the OP is a moron, he's simply stating his opinion which is protected speech.
Fortunately many people like you have thought the same thing, talk trash about a company, sue the bastard. Luckily these cases are almost universally thrown out. An opinion isn't a crime, the plaintiff would be unable to prove that the opinion is in fact wrong, nor would damages be shown from said comment. The cases that are won usually are from competitors or from consistent harassment which has its own set of merits that need to be met. So no, again no suing on this issue.I did not say I was a lawyer. I am just saying you can't run around posting trash about companies. They can come after you but I doubt this seed company would.
A moron yes he is, the name of the strain is Dirty White Bud, not Boy he does not even know what he is growing
The most salient legal point is the legal status of the enterprise to begin with. The rest, while interesting for reference to other situations, isn't relevant here due to the illegal nature of sending seeds via the mails.
Yes, I may be a moron. On the other hand, I said zero that isn't strictly speaking absolutely true. I did not impugn any other strains or the company's way of doing business. As I pointed out, I posted after comment from others I thought were both knowledgeable and aware of the unwritten rules. That clearly wasn't the case, and I did apologize for going off where it may have been premature.
what are you mota??or dirty white boy i gota check this out for realz for shits and giglesI don't know about all this, but I am a breeder. And never had such a bad experience with any of my beans. Sounds like you got a bag of shwag seeds, but kinda curious how this mota guy has a lot of the same strains as me.
No but think he is connected to me somehow.what are you mota??
Oh yeah? Ever heard of reviews? almost every business has a yelp, yahoo, amazon or whatever review section. You don't see any of those people getting sued.I did not say I was a lawyer. I am just saying you can't run around posting trash about companies. They can come after you but I doubt this seed company would.
A moron yes he is, the name of the strain is Dirty White Bud, not Boy he does not even know what he is growing
now with a setup like that why would he even be doing testers?But one thing that needs to be mentioned also is Ttystikk doesn't grow like most people. He does vertical RDWC silo's bad genetics could literally be a disaster, doesn't sound like F2's to me
