Expensive seeds

loquacious said:
I have been looking for some new strains to grow and have noticed some seed companies charging 5-10 times what most seed companies charge for their seeds. What I was wondering is, do they have 10 times the THC content? 10 times the CBD content? 10 times the weight? I mean honestly, what makes them so much better that they deserve the very large prices they seek? I've grown TGA, Dinafem, DNA, G13, Nirvana, Emerald Triangle, Reserva Privada, and TH Seeds all with great ease and they were all great smokes. So, for the people who have grown really expensive seeds, are they really worth that much more?

top dollar does not equal top genetics or more stable or any of that crap. all it does is show you how much a breeder feels he can charge for his or her gear. period. the end. u want to see ridiculous prices (http://www.cannabis-seeds-bank.co.u...eddon-x-sirius-skunk-feminized/prod_1060.html) there u go, thats 10 seeds @ $745.00

dont fall for the hype, your growing some great shit with TGA, ET, but you should also try Bodhi, Gage Green, Mosca, as they all have great stuff at a fair price and are available at most seedbanks like attitude ;)

May I ask why you would recommend a distributor as opposed to buying direct from reasonably priced breeders?.

you sure can!

its because in my experience ive learned that not all the breeders i want things from send things to my country, as well as i also prefer to do all my shopping in one place if possible, because then i'm only paying for shipping/packaging 1 time as it will come all in one order. also a few places are cash/MO only, and i prefer to use my CC or a prepay CC.

as opposed to visiting 2 or 3 websites, making 2 or 3 separate orders, paying separate shipping costs, sending cash, etc etc.

so in short, for me its easier. but if you were just buying like 1 pack of "Whateverthefuck Kush" then obviously you could go to the breeder if their service methods met with your means of purchasing. but i've never just bought 1 pack from one breeder. every order i've ever made has included multiple breeders' gear.

I think he used that link just to show the insane prices on DN gear.


I shop there, I can get beans from multiple breeders in one stop; with only 1 shipping charge

yep, was just proving how ridiculous some breeders are and that top dollar does not equal the best genetics ;)

if all the seeds were free, i would still take Bodhi, TGA, Mr Nice, Mosca, DJ Short, Gage Green, and Emerald Triangle, before i took anything by DN.

ty InkTheWorld, glad my point wasnt completely lost on everyone :p
 
yeah jcash was just using that exorbitant listing for example to show the ridiculousness of the price sunbiz ;)

and also a good reason to go through a distributor that is of course has to be reputable first generally has lower pricing as well than directly from whichever breeder, because they buy in bulk just like wallyworld or other supercenters ;)

but yeah any more than 10 dollars or pounds per seed is just way over inflated pricing...

Lol!

You know there are suckers out there that buy them too. They wouldn't continue to charge the price if there wasn't.

The average consumer isn't doing what you do.

With the market as is, buying one pack on a first-time order is a good means to establishing a business relationship.
 
Doctor Greenthumb are pretty good in my opinion. Please dont attack me for writing this, it's just my opinion based on my own experience with his gear.
