thank you for a well thought out response. backed by knowledge and sources. i will deffinitly not be buying this garbage.
but thats why i asked you guys. i knew nothing other than it looked shady. thanks for confirming this.
Walks like duck. . .quacks like duck. . .
In the ceed game, reputation matters. This outfit doesn't enjoy a good one. Enough said on that.
you still gotta wonder, with how many seeds a dope plant produces, how the fuck does someone have the nutys to try and slang beans at that price.
See the link to my post above about the "Smirnoff effect".
Basically when you charge $300 a pack "someone" out there with more money than brains is going to think, "Wow, at 3x the cost of everything else these ceeds HAVE to be the best stuff out there". That's the whole racket. If you're a breeder and already have seed lines going, the extra cost to you of marketing part of your line this way is minimal. IE, if you can convince some suckers to shell out $300/pack for the same ceeds you're selling under a different label at $50/pack why not? You don't have to sell many packs for this to be worthwhile.
i woulda bought them if the company was still open and i was able to tell them thier shit sucks.
If you like, you can still buy them, try to grow them, then track down the breeder (he's not dead, just not making new DN ceeds), and tell him his lines stink. Is that really going to make you happy?
IMO, you can save $300 just by skipping the first two steps. Also, since the company is (reportedly) out of business now, I'm pretty sure the breeder already knows the lines are no good. . .if they were actually worth the asking price, the company would probably still be in business! So its not like you'd be telling the guy anything he didn't already know.
Depending on where you live, for the cost of two packs of DN ceeds you might be able to catch a round trip flight to Denver, walk into the dispensary of your choice, and walk out with half a dozen elite "clone only" strains each better than anything in the DN catalog. In some cases you might even be able to smoke the buds to test them first!
For the cost of four packs of DN ceeds you could catch a round trip flight to Amsterdam, walk into the coffeeshop/seedbank of your choice, smoke the buds, buy the ceeds, and maybe even talk directly to the breeder in person!
i was hoping id hear from someone who had bought and got em to grow. just to hear it would have been amazing. right from the start, i knew they wouldnt be better than say my super bud.
Again, I think the last link in that post with all my links has a grow report in there.
The grower figured that the $200+ Doggie's Nuts Northern lights had to be great, and then it turned out they went hermie and ruined everything in his room!
One other poster said that either 9/10 or 10/10 (I forget which) of his ceeds didn't germinate.
If you search on the internet you can find grow reports on these. I've seen a few. . .one or two that said that a particular line was good, but nothing whatever indicating that these were better than everything else out there, or even as good as the best of stuff from ceeds, let alone worth the inflated asking prices.
