You know I remember when these guys first came out they took sooo sooo much flack, I’m sure the majority of it came from using a mac male or some shit like that. People shouting they’re not worth the price tag, they’re pollen chuckers etc.
Here’s my take.
No one owns shit, unless ur Berner and copywriting the shit out of a brand then there isn’t a leg to stand on when someone uses ur genetics to make their own hybrids.
The idea that people who “Chuck pollen” are bad people and bad for the business is ludicrous. Everyone just seems to get their nose out if joint when someone uses their strain for a hybrid. I honestly feel that crossing popular cuts in this fashion is good for the people. It’s not as if they’re being marketed as ibls. We all know these are gonna be far from homogenous hybrids. We’re taking the gamble on finding something special because we for whatever reason like the parents of the seeds were buying.
when I see people slating these guys for it I wonder to myself “are these same people lining the pockets of the farmers and locals that took care of the land races that bred today’s cannabis? I doubt it!” If u wanna sell seeds and clones and make money from a plant you don’t get to have a bitch fit when someone comes and pays you for your seeds or plants then makes some money off it for themselves.
A lot of these guys are acting like they’ve been hiding and guarding some prize genes in their garage, keeping them just for themselves, then someone’s broke in and stole them while they were sleeping.
If guys like lit are doing this it’s cos that’s what the consumer wants. I’m in the U.K. where it’s very very hard and dangerous to get ahold of some of these genetics in clone form, the best we can hope for is to buy a reversal hybrid or some s1 seeds of something exotic that we may have only read about or seen pics of. I personally am glad there’s companies who Chuck pollen and create s1s
who agrees or disagrees? This could be a big debate lol

Agree with all that. My only issue with Lit and others like them is the price tag they put on these crosses. $250-350 is ridiculous.

Good breeders never take someone else's strain and pollen chuck with it. I don't have an issue with guys who pollen chuck $2,000 clone only strains, and honestly, I doubt the original breeder of said strain cares either because by that time, they've already made a small fortune off the original plant. But I also don't respect them as breeders, they're just selling instagram lottery ticket strains. No judgement on Lit Farms here, I'm speaking in a general sense, I've never grown out their gear. I do have a problem when someone takes another breeder's strain and chucks with it and sells the offspring for $200+ per pack, again, that's not breeding either, that's just shady exploitation. What I LOVE to see are all the recent collaborations between breeders, where both parties contribute and profit.

I get that it’s expensive, mine only cost me £160 though, but still. I feel that this is just the nature of the industry atm and it’s not allways that they set those prices, when there’s hype the vendors drive up the price, and also people stockpile them so they run out fast also driving up the price. There’s also a chance that the price is set higher by them because they don’t yield a great amount of pollen from a reversal. When you take into account plant count and space and the cost of running that grow it doesn’t seem like too steep of a cost for something that I allready want. Just my honest opinion though.
Just curious did u buy any at that price and what we’re they?

I bought a Jordan cross (Jealousy x Runtz) from a friend that bought it for $350. I also got a cherry cheesecake x Jealousy from them. They got a few $350 packs out right now. Same crosses that Tiki sells for $60 when you consider that his $120 power packs comes with two crosses. Others sell same crosses for $100-120.

This has been discussed endlessly on this site. I didn't even know there was a mac male. All is knew is the mac1 caps cut is a bitch to reverse and receive pollen.
Some breeders are a fickle bunch and can claim this and that but their egos are probably just getting a lil too big. Another thing to remember is in the states cuts are most definitely still hoarded, lot of breeders cuts being sold on strainly aren't real breeders cuts, why would they want to give those up? Thing is it very easy to find some serious fire these days in the US, I can think of 20 seed banks and 20 breeders off the top of my head that put out some heat and you usually can find a winning female pheno in 1 pack. I personally like what lit farms is doing, they're a lil on the pricey side for their fems and always think they are just a renamed more mainstream grandiflora brand but whatever I really like some of their crosses. I do think blatant theft of a strain is not cool, you can't f2 a strain and just start calling it your own and selling it for $200, also s1 someone else work and and sell it at a high price, I mean you can but...

Like when Archive builds their entire company on Face Off OG? That behavior is not as bad as recreating another breeders gear and selling it under the same name at a lower price. Making cheap imitations** is the lowest of the low and something Lit farms has never done. Archive did it though! That puts Lit Farms head and shoulders above Archive, one of the least respectable breeders in the entire business.
**edit: not counterfeiting

I cant say much about the politics of it all, but if they didnt want us to breed their seeds they would only sell feminized. Ive got a pack of their regs and a pack of fems from a friend, fems doing great and just popped a few regs after seeing the fems l just had to. Was not my choice, all are looking so good l have to cross the best, and what better than another strain from same breeder. Its a crap shoot, but could be fun. Lit farms is A ok in my tent. Enjoying their work so far. Better price than last breeders seeds l got.

You can breed with fem seeds too, there is no difference between them and the half of regs that are female.
