Right, and all we're saying, is that some seed banks don't, and thats the ones you should consider going with, if you want original genetics.

Ultimately, it's your choice who you get your seeds from. I'm not trying to sway your decisions. Just informing.
I hear you. It’s just hard to imagine they are that bad, or would stay in business when their seeds are more expensive than most, they have no problem replacing seeds, and they have all these guarantees. I guess I’m a bit butthurt cause I bought Sour Diesel from ILGM before I saw all these claims about them. I like all their guarantees, that’s the main reason I bought seeds from them. No one else offers the same guarantees, or you gotta submit a request within 60 days of purchase. I appreciate the help/advice. I guess I gotta do my research, cause I have no idea where to get seeds now.

Grew New420 guys Santa Marta Columbia Gold last year. Had a question and Paul responded right away. These are not feminized seeds but they are worth the extra effort. Took almost 14 weeks of flower but this strain is spot on! A great happy high

so why would they sell shit seeds but give good grow information? Makes no sense.
Why would they post good info? Info is free. Their seeds arent necessarily, " shit" , theyre just inconsistent as hell. In the end, there are better and cheaper options. 10+10 sounds great until you find after 1 run that you dont like them and still have a bunch that you dont care to run. If somebody is that determined to use them then whatever. Do you. Yes most of it still gets you high but, if youre interested in quality and consistency of end product then eventually youll look somewhere else. If someone is going to use em then run photos. At least then if you find a good pheno you can clone it. Their autos ive tried are terpless.

It’s crazy people say they don’t sell the strains they claim. It makes no sense that they outline how to grow each specific strain, and give a lot of information about each strain. What would be the point of this if every strain they sell grows way differently than what they outline on their website?

Then stick with them. I’m just some bot on the internet, what do I know. And the rest of this community is in a conspiracy to take down ilgm.

It's not crazy at all. Example, Sour Diesel no longer exists in seed form. Clones would be your only option. If you buy Sour Diesel seeds online, you're getting something else that's not Sour Diesel. That's not unique to ILGM, it's just a fact. Many of the strains they sell are like that. OG Kush? same thing. And many others.

ILGM outsources their seed making to Spain (as do many, many others). In some cases they have legit clones to work with, often times they do not. They tend to favor plant vigor and what produces the most pollen. For example, they might have a mom that turns purple, produces a ton of pollen, and doesn't herm at all. Great, now we can reverse that mom and use it for our blueberry, purple punch, purple urkle, etc etc Point is you never know what you're getting exactly because these places are not 100% forthcoming about the genetics they're using.

I'm not trying to bash on ILGM. They're a bulk bean outfit. They are no different than RQS or Seedsman. All those places are like the Walmart of seeds. It is what it is.

If you want true genetics, you need to do your research. Either track the down the legit clone, or find breeders that have worked with the legit clone. This is why Bodhi and CSI are so popular around here, because we all know the clones they use are the legit real deals. At best the Euro breeders have by and large proven themselves untrustworthy regarding their genetics. It is well known.

You might find some great plants in ILGM seeds. Nothing wrong them and I have no reason to discourage you from buying ILGM seeds, but you should at least be armed with the truth so you can make an informed decision regarding the genetics you want in your garden.

"Everytime i try to get out they pull me back in " lol. Im done with this thread anyway. You can lead a grower to ( or away from)a breeder but ultimately its their choice. If someone is determined to use this seller i say good luck! And good night! The only way you totally lose is to not grow. Peace out! " mike drop"
