Just an update on my clones from bens nursery.. cherry ak is top shelf bud.. I'll be keeping it around for awhile. Nycd is alright bud, decent smoke I dont feel it's a keeper. GMO just got the chop today...beautiful plant its prolly going to be one of the heaviest yielding plants to ever come out of my tents.likley will run it a few more times. Can't wait to sample. Bruce banner # 3 seems like a decent plant but i think its gunna go the same way as the NYCD it will come down next week... blue dream in only around 5 Weeks atm, it's an easy plant to grow with a nice smell, should be decent bud.

Up next I have some red velvet from grandiflora, slurty3 from pcg and a slurricane pheno all from a buddy in Cali...having him shop for me and shipping it was much much cheaper. I also have the clearwater bv cuts on the way. I'll likley never order from strainly again. It was an alright experince, but I've figured out everything is way way overpriced even on the low end.get on discord and make some friends. That's where you wanna get cuts from imo.

Honestly thats prob the best way, Everyone needs to know someone is Cali lol. Or get it direct. Discord can also be hit or miss and alot of drama just like strainly lol

Alot easier to find folks with a ton of postive feedback from others. The discord I'm in self polices pretty strongly... within a few hours I had a half a dozen diffrent providers that all had a year + feedback. There still is drama, no doubt, but there's enough info usally to figure out the cause and who to avoid.

How does it work? Do you offer them extra money?? What is the pricing like and what are their experiences? I am not sure I would just trust some random person to send clones.

They are just as random as strainly. People vend and others buy and review.

Discord is as good as the server your in. Overall it's too disjointed for me but if you keep it to just a few good servers it's manageable

at least here we have reviews of vendors and some have been around for sometime. I am just trying to see what the difference is in comparison to what pigtails gardens does. Basically the same thing.

No extra money, guys usally advertise their services, most servers have a dedicated Channel for clone trading and reviews. It's not hard to find the right ppl. If they don't deliver most admins will ban the perpetrator...tbh it's easier, cheaper and probally more safe.

I am good with sending random people money on discord. I find it hard to trust that some "good Samaritan" wants to just help me out when I look at how the landscape of the clone prices are already

Your still paying them over market price man. Their time is worth something. ..Just not 100 + bucks a cut. If you don't wanna do it, then don't. I shared my experince with both platforms...and by far discord servers are the way to go imo. Strainlys review system is tilted so you never see most bad reviews... Same with seedbank clone sellers. Brotanical gardens was charging 250 dollars for a Mac cross that no one has heard of just a few weeks ago. Why would I pay that when I can get a Mac 1 clone for less than 75 bucks shipped?... from a seller with 50+ postive reviews on a discord server they have no control on.... But Do you big dog.

I mean if thats what you want to do do it. Sounds like strainly 2.0 to me but even shadier..

Probably an easy way to get HLVD too. I doubt these people are doing testing.

Do they talk about HLVD testing?? Have people grown out their stuff to make sure it is what it is?
I am on strainly paying $40 a clone from someone who has tested all their stuff. Posted tests. Have a great reputation and offer one of the best shipping policies I have ever seen.
Not sure how that is any different than strainly though.

There's folks that do hlvd testing..and its a daily subject in the server overall...I haven't order from any of them so I can't give you any more insight on it. I'm not really concerned about it myself as I dont keep any cut for more than a year. Ppl around me like to change it up too much.

AJ left a sour taste in my mouth with his never ending novels he wrote and left in my inbox. Also don't want 3 or 4 cuts... Just 1. Plenty of good growers selling tested gear without the headache.
