Basically, in lay terms it means shouldn't criticize a gift or something given for free. I remember awhile back some people were looking for Christmas tree bud and would probably kill to have a crack at these freebies.

Just sayin... If you shop at the liquor store down the road (24pk of beer a week type thing) and the owner says hey I got something special to show our appreciation for your continued patronage. Then hands you a small bottle of port. Wtf is that...I only drink beer and occasionally a small bit of rum.
No aspersions cast toward Useful, I've never been lucky enough to draw useful seeds freebies, just my take on the vendors dispersment of "freebies".
To be completely honest I don't "get" the freebies thing. I buy what I want and I'm fine with that arrangement. Besides that the marijuana seed biz is the only time I've seen freebies being a standard part of the transaction is 4th of july fireworks stands. Like seeds it doesn't work out ideally...you buy $150 in mortar shells and they give you 50pks of snakes. Wtf...? Right.?

I REALLY appreciate the input, and the amount of folks that took the time to post their opinion on the subject. So i'm gonna do this, after reading all of the responses, My thinking is that if a person that orders a fem pack and gets a free pack of NDNGUY'S 1979 Christmas Tree Bud preservation, they may get excited due to the rarity. DC Seed Exchange just placed an order, I will send him those freebies. I will hold back the crosses that @bythekasiz made for my reg releases. And also let's not forget that @mindriot is also doing a preservation as well, should be plenty to spread the love with.

Sounds good! I originally was thinking you could save the crosses for the sweet tooth releases to give people more freebie options with the new stuff.
No rush, save some for Christmas time! Haha

I'm a big fan of reg's and only just returned to giving some fem's a try. That said, anything I have tucked away is only there until I've decided exactly what I want from it.
Due to current commitments it'd be tucked away for at least 6 months. Damn the plant limits!
Edit: I should have read up more here before placing my most recent dcse order. Looks like I'll recieve my order before those are available. I saw Chocolate Diesel s1 fem's, had the money, and grabbed some to add to this seasons outdoor run.

I agree, if someone gets a freebie and doesn't want to grow it, hopefully they will pass it along to someone who will...but even if just a few people grow them I feel it was worth it. Think about all the packs that people actually pay for and never grow. We can always make more!

Id say that is when they'll finish, 2nd week of October.
@Useful Seeds, I feel most of us will run whatever yourself or other reputable reliable breeders offer. I usually prefer regs and some line breeding F3 etc or a True F1 hybrid of stable lines. The fems you use are very stable and reliable and really contradict the typical poly-hybrid negative rap.

Just grabbed some Double D, Blueberries n Oranges, and Double Dipped Strawberries. Also, snagged some Northern Sensemilla from Strayfox. Never tried Useful or Strayfox, so I’m excited to run some next. I’m not sure if I’ll get freebies, but oh well. Ordered from JBC for the first time. These breeder threads are super useful (see what I did there) for helping to navigate the minefield of buying seeds. Thanks to everyone for filling them up with info.
