AMEN !!!All I know is back in the day all you had was the handful Dutch breeders and they had much more consistent offerings than the hundreds of so called breeders today. Dutch genetics got left in the dust last few years or so but back then...that was all there was and it was fire. Mich more difficult to get but if you did....a 10 pack of a cultivar was a true cultivar. Serious Seeds for instance. Pop a pqck of ak47 back then and you got plants that were much more uniform in structure...smell...taste..appearance..etc. Same with Paradise..amd the rest. Even Dutch Passion was really good back then. With todays chuckers (and yes - 99% of them are - ) your lucky to find consistency in anything. So much variation because none of them are doing it right. I personally dont care for variation. When I buy a pack of something...I want to know that the majority of the plants will turn out like the breeder envisioned or says thats what they will be. Not some hermie fest hay tasting hemp garbage. Iam picky. And for what they charge...i deserve tk be. Used to not be like that. Not with the old timey Dutch breeders back in the day. The reason why most people like variation is because they have been trained to. They dont know any better. Ask the handful of real breeders like Chimera...Simon...Shatibaba..Tom Hill...or that Garcia dude from ACE Seeds. They will tell you that it takes hundreds and more likely thousands of plants and at least 2 amd a half to 4 years of working them and selection process to come up with a true cultivar. Just one. Most so called breeders do not have the time..money..legality..or space to do it right. But they want to cash in and power trip on thinking they can breed. Fact of the matter is...most cant. Be leary of anyone that comes up with a catalog of strains in a short order of time amd doing the whole "official tester" hustle...giving seeds out to everyone for "test reports". Folks...this is not cannabis breeding. Hence why you have so much controversy...herm and garbage plant reports out there these days. There are not many (I mean really well known good breeders are rare as hens teeth) that can do or are willing to...do it right.
