Are we tricked about strains we grow?

So I have been looking at a lot of different pictures of people's plants and realized a lot of the pics do not match. I mean somebody will say they are growing white widow, post pics, but they look completely different than any other white widow pics I have seen. So the question is, when we are buying seeds from all these online places, can they be trusted?

Yes man they can be trusted. You have to realize that a plant wil;l grow the way it grow due to its climat. You could have the worst weed in the world and the best and it could be the same strain just a dif. grower. You know what i mean. Its all about how you grow it

Makes me think of Grandma's Boy...."I don't give a fuck what it's called, just give me a bag of weed!"

Yea I'm usually pretty scepticle about some things like rare strains or things that just don't look right. I trust people like soma, and big seedbanks like them, but I dunno. It's sooo easy to take a random ass seed or clone and say it's one thing or another. I know my AK47 came from a mother grown using Serious Seed's AK47, though.

Ok ok here is how it is.....You can order 10 seeds of the same strain...grow them the same way...and you can potentially end up with 10 different looking/acting plants. There can be even more variance when different nutes/methods, etc. are used. So its not just how you grow it...its the genetics of each seed.

there is alot to say about stabalized genetics as well, and also the lack there of
