Just bought my first pack on Strainly, a delicious sounding Octane Mint Sorbet cross. One question, should I wait until I receive the pack to mark the transaction complete? Yeah I think I will.
What's fucked is if you get ripped off or the transaction never completed, you can't leave a review. Its a real fucked loophole that needs to be removed somehow to leave the customers with failed transactions an ability to voice their experiences with that vendor.

I keep clicking on completed transaction , then I get the payment details. I'm doing it wrong ? But it's working

Does anyone use Shoreline Genetics? They have a ten pack deal for $300 on there. Been wanting to pull the trigger on that for a min but keep buying other shit. $30 a pack is a steal. They have a lot of stuff that sounds good too. I've seen a person here that goes by Shoreline OG so i figured it was the same company.
Same dude, good dude and interesting work.

Shoreline is legit. You should be all good there.

I got trop cherry from pink box about done flowering and honestly I'm disappointed. He sells it as the relentless breeders cut, but it looks nothing like the breeders cut. I even emailed him and after he asked to send pictures, which I did, he stopped replying. I just realized the picture he is using on that listing isn't even his.

If this cut smokes good I'll probably keep it, it's got the trop cookie terps with a much better yield but I'm still pissed it's not what it was advertised to be.

Is the first set what pink was initially using for photos? The camera settings are altered on some of the "breeder's cut" pictures, look at the plants in the background. I've tried to find photos of the "breeder's cut" and I've only found pictures of larger setups running the same plant that you received. Maybe they are running the 'wrong' cut via pink. Yours looks like a better-grown and fully colored up example of the first picture. Those over-exposed pictures are useless and the plants aren't grown well. It could be the same plant in my opinion.

I hope mine turns out like that, good looking plants. Got mine as a freebie, tried to clone from it, she bushed up pretty good. Zookies and ice cream cake look good, duct tape coming on.

I'm basing it's off of the bud structure. The cut pink sent me looks way more sativa ish and airy with more leaves. All the pics of the breeders cut I'm seeing are showing more dense, spaced out, rounded buds with less leafiness. They look completely different imo. Here's a couple more picks of the breeders cut I found.Screenshot_20210323-171624~2.pngScreenshot_20210323-171630~2.png

That's a tough one. The differences could be due to the environment and other factors. I am watching a video in regular lighting from that grower's instagram and your plant is more spear-shaped but yours is still putting out white pistils and his plant is swollen and ready to get chopped in the video I am watching (with normal lightening). I'd say to message relentless directly on instagram but checking it out, it seems he's a bit bigger than I remember on icm. It would help us in determining if pink box should be avoided. Particularly, your claim that he stopped responding to messages isn't a source of comfort. Handing out deceptive cuts and not correcting should be the downfall of someone's business in this game.

Do you have an instagram? Is it possible to send a message to relentless and get his opinion on the matter? It would help us in determining if pink box should be avoided.

Yeah I'll try messaging relentless, we'll see if he responds. I started flowering around the 1st of February so it's only about 7 weeks into flower which explains the white pistils, I don't expect it to bulk up much anymore. When I messaged pink I was very calm and respectful, I didn't freak out on him or anything weird like that so I don't see why i couldn't get a response from him.

I can't speak of this cut but my lvtk looks totally different depending on what light I flower it out under.

Under the cmh it has more spear shaped buds, more airy sativa-ish looking but when I flowered a cut under my quantum boards it looked more compacted indica style buds.

Plus under cmh it was always lime green, no color. Under the boards it had purple hues show up.

Too bad phylos sucks because it would be awesome to compare genetics of the cuts/plants we grow.

I got it under hlg quantum boards. I've seen a couple pics of it grown under led and it looks pretty similar to the hps grown. I don't think it has anything to do with environment or lighting because I got other strains in the same tent that are super chunky and dense.

I see on his instagram it says no dms but this should be of interest to him. If indeed that isn't a proper cut it should be fixed, considering the seller is one of the more prolific in this community. Reputation is everything.

Cool cool. It does look way different than the breeder pics for sure.
