    Cool Barney's seeds... WARNING Acapulco Gold seeds are mutated

    Barney's seeds... WARNING Acapulco Gold seeds are mutated

    I have tryed to grow from seed this strand....all seeds/plants show signs of mutation in over 30 seeds sprouted..... I have owned and ran 3 nurserys in the last 35 years and the only time I have seen such mutation was from using benelate by dupont and it distroyed all my stock. Barneys will just send more of the same instead of changing the seeds to another strand.... so I guess I am just out the $180 spent on the order...

    I bought those exact same seeds and this is what I saw under the microscope.
    I definitely advise that you avoid purchasing this defective strand.

    wow 30 seeds ?? its hard to argue with that experiment maybe 5 if there was a few mutants you could give way but 30 is a reasonable amount to thewy this strain is garbage .......................... i think this could be a case of a strain that does not feminize well !! ............ im not a fan on hermied female femal breeding personaly

    Cool Wasted away again dealing with seed growers....

    I have an 8 x 8 bloom room, 1 closet for rooting clones and another for mataining the mother plants .....my 12 bucket ebb and flow system works like a champ. Im retired and live at home with a lovley wife of 34 years of marrage. I also am trying out my 10 x 20 shade house for some big plants and all the auto's.... so I stay busy. I just hate starting over with BAD seeds .... my time is more valueable that ... so you see I order 15 seeds of a strong strand and pick out the mothers every other year...so I have gone through 30 total two orders of seeds with nothing but crinkeled bent up leaves pictures were sent to prove my point,I just hope two many don't fall for a "NEW" Acapulco Gold.What a waste of time and effort I think....sorry for the rambling, but i"m still pissed!

    Too bad. I have a barneys LSD going right now. So far so good kind of, comparing it with the g13 growing next to it its lagging. I can only hope it comes close to its claims.

    i am flowering one lsd...its the freakiest mutant plant i have ever seen...ever...the stem starts normal, except with three branches per node, then gradually gets flattened and warped into a weird looking ribbon, about 3 or 4 cm at its widest, with an assload of branches sticking out of random places (waaay more branches than there should be, even for a triploid). The top nug is actually two or three nugs competing for space, mashing into each other as they grow...


    Too bad about the acapulco gold...i had it at Barneys coffeeshop in amsterdam some time ago, and i liked it a lot...it was my second favorite smoke that trip, and i thought about picking up some seeds later down the road...now i wont bother...

    My Barney's LSD plants kind of looked like hell, leaves turned brown way early and had some ugly malformed leaves, especially at the beginning, but boy was the bud good. Can't judge a book from its cover.
