Stay away from ILGM!!!!!!!

Hey growmies! I am on my last ilgm grow and one plant keeps getting spots on the leaves. Oh i HATE ilgm genetics. I havent had 1 grow of their beans that went great. Never had any of these problems before ilgm. Their stuff has weak resistance apparently. Anyways can anybody tell me what this is? I think septoria? Or maybe rust. Think neem oil will help? Or what will? Im already starting some other seeds in case i have to scrap and start over. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated ! Hope yall are good. Thanks

What’s the best genetics/banks you’ve ever bought from? I’ll make sure I steer clear from ilgm

Hell yeah! Hes sure not going to find any super glowing reviews here. I have put up quite a few underwhelming pics myself lol. And I know its not just me because everything I grow from bagseed turns out great. I hope it makes a difference but I doubt it will. Most of their customers are like I was. Never bought beans before and they guarantee shipping and germination and take cash. And....Google......I learned alot of things playing around with their 10+10 for $110 beans. And the stuff does have a decent buzz. But now im ready now for quality,consistency, stability and TERPENES. If you're reading this ILGM, then please fix this. We care about finished product not only germination. Give people what they're paying for and you'll make loyal customers.

I'd rather have guaranteed strains than guaranteed germination

North Atlantic Seed Company. They have good, well vetted breeders and good prices and customer service. Ask about any of the peeps on here who have used them and nobody has been complaining. Ive been doing autos so Mephisto Genetics right now,but i want to try Solfire for photos. They have a great selection.

I know it right? I been germinating with no trouble forever and even though a few might fail, if the stuff that grows is fire then its worth it twice over. If ILGM had that we wouldnt be on this thread. Whatever, I am looking forward to trying the new gear anyways.

Hey @Slaveboy , I think i remember you mentioning landraces. I came across this site that specializes in them indianlandraceexchange.com and therealseedcompany.com i havent checked them out yet but the site I found them on has alot of big name strain breeders on it like attitude and mephisto. BTW. Heres those GG4's. I swear i think the light colored one is a different strain. Its still just a couple pistils while the other has been flowering for 2 weeks. Oh well, time for a dab.

Thanks, I'll check it out. Looks good

I looked through their catalog and they have alot of strains. Some look sweet others kinda gnarly, but they sell regular beans for between $60-$80 for 10. From the pics they dont manicure anything so im sure would look better properly grown and cut. At least they describe the different phenos of each. Id like to try their afghani.

Seconded, I get most of my seeds there. I also use seedsherenow since no one else stateside has thseeds

Was looking a bit. Didn't check to see where they are, but one has Euro signs. Not sure where the Indian one is out of, but was reading that landrace strains are under threat of Extinction, which I was already worried about! Now that Thailand is legal, it's going to be even harder. If these landrace strains are legit, I'm in! One thing about landrace strains, is for people like myself, who enjoys earthy, citric, hashy taste. It's not skunky in any fashion. I am 57, grew up on brown pot. Not all brown pot it bad, in fact, can be the best.

Agreed, I am 55 and ive not come across ANY weed in years that checked all the boxes for me like the old Christmas Tree or Colombian Gold and such. Yes some of these new strains have more total thc content than alot of those old ones, but they give up the terpenes that made them great. The skunk #1 and northern lights from the 70's and 80's were totally different tasting/looking than anything by those names ive seen in years. That stuff was impossible to conceal, lol ive had everybody in a room smelling weed cause I had a couple grams of NL in my pocket. Ahh those were good times.

Take a look at these plants. Both beans from the same pack, germinated simultaneously, planted in the same mix at the same time. One started flowering at 25 days. The other has thrown a very few pistils 2 weeks ago and still no progress. I wrote ILGM, showed them the pics and they basically said it must be my fault. They said that I must have mixed strains. Maybe THEY mixed strains, but i know i did not. I swear i dont even think the one is an autoflower. But they both germinated so thats all they care about. They suggested i cut my lights to 12/12. Well that would be fine if the other and my seedling weren't both autos. How do these self proclaimed master growers know so fkn little? I give her another week and if she aint flowering then im putting her with my wifes houseplants in the sunroom.

Tell them, come here and see the reviews

I mean for real, you ever see 2 plants same strain same age look so different? I understand variance in phenos but 1 with buds all over with trichs all over and the other like 6-8 pistils and not even 1 on every branch? Well I havent. What a waste of time. I think id get more yield putting the big one under both lights and moving the other. My wifes in Chicago so im hoping she brings me some kind back. Some Bubba Kush or something.

This is what I've been complaining about here, early on. I had two strains, half sativa and half indica. All but a couple had any smell. I harvest them all at different times. I told ILGM this, which they were blaming me as well, until I told them about the way I dried and cured. I told them, it tastes like hemp CBD, which it does. Gets me a little buzz. It's so bad, I stopped smoking a lot. I'm trying to cook the shit. Anyway, they seem to believe me now and wanted to know what's on the package. Im not sure I have it, maybe. I think they're trying to nail the supplier. I didn't check their response this week, being it's on an old phone. I will this week. Looks like I'm still strain hunting

I hear ya. Well, i still have my package ,goofy sticker ,tweak baggie the beans came in and all. Guess ill forward them now if they are showing interest. Btw, cbd bud is a good way to describe the taste. The WW got downright raunchy after 6 months. The GG tastes better but still only one plant so far tasted really decent. This new 1 looks the best so far. I hope she stays that way.

Just read ILGM email. He said he came here and said everyone has different problems lol. He pretty much admitted they suck. Anyway, offered me 20 free seeds of my choice lol. I literally cursed him out. I told him to shove his seeds where the sun don't shine and he and his employer is a pos. I said, I'm out of thousands and I'm going to make it my daily routine to expose that they're selling fake strains.

Different problems means that they suck in many ways. With fkd up inconsistent genetics, the problems are going to be different. Before i would buy more of their beans ill just grow the mexican bagseed beans ive had for a couple years. Lol. Oh well its time to start getting ready for Thanksgiving dinner. Ive been saving a couple buds of that bagseed kush/haze hybrid i grew last year. A year old and it still smells like fire. Have a good Thanksgiving!
