As time goes by they sometimes lose one of the parent plants and are forced to use f2 or f3 and the gene pool obviously changes.
A large majority of the strains out right now are poly hybrid and not often worked.
There’s many reasons why the genetics change over time and no one is gonna be able to lock down one specific reason.

he means how come the quality differs from seed batch to another seedbatch years later.

my answer is because breeders arent using same parents as they claim. pretty sure Subcool hasnt held on to space dude fpor 10 plus years. his agent orange and jillybean wewre bunk last run and fiore the first time around.

genetice drift doesnt carry through on the progeny. also, when back/or
crossed it revives the strain and provides hybrid vigor

Lost parents same name. The ol' bait and switch.

There is no regulation when it comes to peddling beans. Every trick in the book gets tried so don't be so baffled. It's more the norm than the exception. In fact I can't think of one Breeder that has released consistent batches of any line for a clean decade straight. Maybe they could if they only worked one line. A line they are actually passionate about.
