Rare Dankness: 501st OG HERMIES!!!

ditto...

RD, I really feel like a couple days is long enough for someone from your company to come on here and talk one on one.

Perhaps, but they do have a website with contact info. I'm not sure this is actually their customer service line.

It's really irritating that RD MI is the only soul from the company who has anything to say. Apparently I need to post this on EVERY SINGLE FORUM on the net... MAYBE I'll get some attention then, huh?

Or maybe contact the company direct as you would expect someone with a problem with Grand Daddy XXXXX to do? Better then online tantrum making no one look good.

Key word in there was THINK. He also said he only kept 3 and never flowered the other 7 out, so we will never know what variation was actually there. You can't tell a plant's genotype from a seedling. You have to grow it out to see what traits are expressed. Variation in appearance of young seedlings could easily be affected by environmental conditions. Gotta wait til the alternating nodes hit to see how they really grow.

there's been others that have reported to find up to 6 different pheno's in a 10 pack, so there's no denying that fact. to keep things fair, they also stated that the smoke was definitely on par with everyone else's as well.

If i'm a rep or not, for any company, that should play no role in what I grow. I said it from the beginning, I'm a KUSH head. Everyone at the other site I'm on knows this.
It is NO surprise that I grabbed your seeds. I have Ken's too. I wanted some DANK OG.

It's really irritating that RD MI is the only soul from the company who has anything to say. Apparently I need to post this on EVERY SINGLE FORUM on the net... MAYBE I'll get some attention then, huh?

RD MI, you have offered NO ADVICE, ZERO INFO TO HELP, NOTHING BUT NEGATIVITY, and overall, JUST ARGUE to TRY and make points. The more this goes on, the more I feel your company is going downhill. It would seem as though NOBODY gives a shit about how SERIOUS this is, and how detrimental it could potentially be to your company. Oh well, do your thing.

AT LEAST YOU HAVE AN AWESOME SALES REP HERE TO ANSWER ALL OUR QUESTIONS AND HELP US IN THIS TIME OF NEED/WONDER...

GDP rep i feel you. i also find it hard to believe that a rep from out of a legends camp would go buy multiple packs just to bash another company's rep, 1 pack alone would of been enough to do just that. as far as rd see's it i guess you are doing just that and would not rather deal with the situation, so i assume. no matter what the situation may be, you are a customer. if the said item you purchase is unsatisfactory or has an issue that requires attention from that company you are entitled to customer service.

Well, unlike Subcool.... right? I mean have we ever gotten a real answer on the plush? that was supposedly tested with no hermies at all... testing unless your in the know (like some of us are) is very very bias. from sub there was no hermies from his testers from me I got a flock of them..... so, yea? ( just using this as an example of a IRL situation )

they are expensive. That is the first thing anyone should notice.... right? why would anyone buy these if they were unable to afford to? What is the big deal? the hermie issue is a problem no doubt but, GDP you really do sound a bit....(idk the word) malicious? in your posting... I mean it really sounds like you just want to run the company threw the mud.

And RDMI is probably one of the kindest people I have met In LIFE! period dude knows his way around the grow room and is a Guru with extractions. If anything he is trying to get a proper answer for you guys.. I don't get the hate thing tho... it's unneeded IMHO

dude you're the funniest of them all. i could imagine you on all fours blowing the whole team. as moonshine said "whatever another company does has nothing to do with him and how he runs his company" so you say that to say what? that just because one of sub's strains hermies that multiple strains from rd has the right to do the same without no one saying anything about it. is that what you're saying?
as for the price you would definitely expect much more, whether if you decide to buy them or not. he stated that the genetics was one of the detemining factor. if you watch bohdi latest drop and csg future drops you will see that he isn't the only one with them genes, so the reason for the high price was unjustifiable. i guess that's why a lot of stock is still available and JB is always doing promo's with rd stock. whether it be his or there's, you got to admit promo after promo raises some alarms.

RD MI the more you post the more i respect your hustle. at first i thought you were band wagon, but you have stood up not only for yourself and what for you believe but for rd as well. that doesn't take away the fact of what's going on now, but i just had to give respect where it's due. as you stated "you don't work for the company you're just a rep" and you have gone above and beyond to try to rectify the issue. i know that GDP is a rep for another company and you feel that he could possibly be bashing, but you have to admit that there is an issue and no one but you and a few lackies are here to see if it's credible or not.

why should he have to do that when there's someone here that offers customer service here on riu? isn't that one of the reasons Mrs RD is here for? or is she here just to be hear and see how everyone on riu is doing?

 

[curious2garden]

........snip.......
Look I see your point, and thanks for making it. I DO see how it could come across like I'm bashing them, but I'm not. I've simply stated my experience, posted pics to back it up, got clarification from RDMI, and here we are. I deleted anything negative I said to him, and feel this thread is in no way bashing RD as a company in any way. If they want to push hermie seeds, that's fine. They will fail. GDP genetics has 2, that's right, 2 strains available at the moment, We are new to the scene as well, but there is nothing wrong with coming here as a GDP rep and telling you what's up. What if i was planning to use your genetics in my work? Is that allowed? Would i then be okay mentioning the herm issue?

I don't care if you bash them. The problem is you are doing it as an employee while on duty in your 'work uniform' for a competing company. This can open a can of worms for your employer.

I also respect your ethic in giving the disclaimer that you work for Ken's GDP. You are right it's important for people to know any possible source of bias so they can be objective. I am only suggesting that you create a second screen name that is your own private name and that you post your experiences under that screen name with a disclaimer. Something to the effect of:

"I am a representative of Ken's GDP. If you have any problems or need assistance with a Ken's GDP issue please PM me at: northwest.GDP.rep. All posts under this screen name are solely my own opinion and experience."

Then when you post helping people with GDP questions you do it from your 'work' account and you post your private experience from your recreation account. That way you have done the honorable thing and made sure that although people are aware there is an affiliation there is NO question that this is your opinion and not a form of corporate sabotage.

Who is CSG?

 

[Fresh 2 De@th]

Who is CSG?

connoisseur genetics, they have a thread with all new x's that's in the making. the white, triangle, ghost, ecsd, gsc and a few more.

 

[Nightmarecreature]

If RD is not proven? Then why do they donate RD bud at several dispensaries? I have tried RD bud once and I was impressed. If the bud is being bought and people like it, then that's what really matters. I only expect to keep 1 plant out of every 10 seeds. The RD flowers are proven, the stability of the genetics, not according to RIU. I'm sure there are going to be some snags with 49 strains. Now the question, is this a conspiracy to shoot RD down? Is it an isolated incident? Or a full blown hermie problem that is going to backfire on RD? One of these is correct!

 

[CharlieBud]

I dunno, but I would not assume its the primary means of contacting a company, someone else's forum.? Dunno

 

[hellraizer30]

With a new stuff theres always the posability of a herm issue! My issue that steer me away from them is price most of all!
its not that i cant afford it its i can get dank seeds for half the cost! And are just as good! Like everything good like plush
for instance has its issues, does sub place blame on the grower? NO he owns up to it! The fact the rep is so fast to place blame
on the grower is to automated of a answer! People would respect a breeder that would admmit its posable that his cross could
hermie! Just cause theres a bit of hermieing dont mean every pheno you get will! And then there the fact that nobody else from
rd has came forward? Im not siding with either sides here! Just a outside view on things!

 

[gladstoned]

This is like two up and coming companies going to the playoffs. lmao. Someone is taking a hit from this shit right here.
If the plants are shit, then RD is looking fucked and GDP is looking out for us and RD is handling this crazy fucked not responding and their rep is waiting for OP to kick his ass on recess. BUT, if there are no issues then this whole thread certainly reads different and Ken is like, you got to be fucking kidding me. lol. If OP is crying wolf it is just a matter of time. He MUST have thought about all this before he posted. I mean if there are no issues a year from now what the fuck could he say, ya sorry about that. I don't want to decide which breeder to trust by how good they argue or points they make. I am pretty sure that several of us growing these strains will be influenced by our plants, not a post.

yeah that's how i am viewing it. i have already committed so there's no denying that much, but i could care less about that. don't get me wrong most of my packs were only $45 a piece, so that's my reason for not caring about that in particular. the only thing that intrigues me is the fact that every time someone asks a question in regards to their genetics they always try to make someone out to be a troll or hater. ask for a grow journal or pics of different stages during flowering, you get the lamest excuse then told that you are a hater. makes me think that there's something to hide. you come here tell everyone that all is good and if not you'll make it right, but time an issue that requires immediate attention arise you don't show. so what he's a rep from another company. your main concern should be to rectify the issue as quick as possible and if GDP is "crying wolf"- expose him and clear the air from his smoke.

you use a few sexual insults and somehow think this improves your ability to make a point. thus is not the case.. you simply unveil you stupidity to the masses.

So, from reading your post your homophobic, have a problem with expensive beans

and how is me comparing subcool and you comparing Bodhi any different? So, it's okay to compare on price but, not on so called testing....? most everything I have read from you is mindless banter complaining about one thing or another...


sad, very sad

 

[northwest.GDP.rep]

Perhaps, but they do have a website with contact info. I'm not sure this is actually their customer service line.

Correct. but I thought any of us from any company make s/n so we can be contacted easily, and speak directly w/ other people. It's cool like that...

Or maybe contact the company direct as you would expect someone with a problem with Grand Daddy XXXXX to do? Better then online tantrum making no one look good.

You know, I thought about that, but I had emailed them before when i first was interested in the seeds and never even got a "thanks for your interest..." email. So, I figured this was the best way. Plus I had seen Mrs RD had an acct.

why should he have to do that when there's someone here that offers customer service here on riu? isn't that one of the reasons Mrs RD is here for? or is she here just to be hear and see how everyone on riu is doing?

That's really what I was thinking, stupid me I guess.

I totally understand and agree with you 100% I will do that. Just so there's fewer reasons for anyone to think i am malicious in my posting.

Alright, so this has grown fast... Let me say this. I never thought for ONE SECOND that I'd catch any heat for putting this thread up. I didn't think anyone would ever think i was trying to throw RD under the bus. I literally went into this with the best intention. Seriously, let's PLEASE go back and read my 1st few posts. I was friendly, totally up front, and never ASKED for anything but some answers. At this point, it's very clear LOTS of you think I have some bad intentions. That is not the case. Let me tell you, I would NEVER do anything that would compromise my word, my integrity, my ethics or ANYTHING that gives GDP a bad name.
I have been rude in my own GDP thread and realized how dumb, unnecessary, and rude some of the things I said were. I still want to grow RD, I have scotts and venom going. I would STILL take any hard earned money of mine and invest in any GTH x's or (IF AVAILABLE) Doc's OG. I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH RD!!! Been begging thadocta to come kick it since I met him at the LA cup. I'd love to show him my plants personally or your other WA state rep. COME OVER!!!

With that said, can we please focus on the issue. I would never make something like this up... WORDS are powerful over the internet. I WOULD NEVER WISH FAILURE ON ANY COMPANY.

sad, very sad

yeah i would figure you would say something like that, what else would you expect from a lame. as for me being homophobic, that is far from bieng the case. i just know a homo when i see one, that's all.
i find it funny for someone to not know some one ever in their life to just come out of no where and say im representing that person without ever seeing or hearing, let alone knowing anything about them. but then there's you. i notice that anyone that questions rd you are there calling them a hater or troll, why is that? is there something we don't know that you know? have you seen any test report or grow logs that no else has seen? or are you just d*ck riding without a cause. you remind me of someone that never stands up for them self but always back someone else up from a distance. does that sound familiar.
as for my banter, you can check all post in regards to the thread, they all line up with what i say, never the opposite. i said i purchase beans and i don't regret it. i said moonshine was cool until proven otherwise, which he showed he wasn't. i talked about you and others in regards to band wagon, i still do. so everything i am saying is still holding true to what i post and continue to post.
also what i said about you comparing sub's to rd i was being facetious. if you can read and follow context you will see i was quoting msm when he clearly stated that what he do what his company has nothing to do with anybody else's company, but here you are doing the total opposite. if you are representing him don't go against what he believe's in, it defeats the purpose of being a follower, stupid.
and why would you compare him to sub or sub's work. all it tells me is that you identify something in regards to the two and is trying to cover something up by not making any sense. if anything you need to double check what you post and try to remain consistent, that's the least you can do.

 

[Fresh 2 De@th]

not to get off topic but i also notice that ever since i started posting my non-sense in these rd threads my profile views has sky rocketed. i wonder why or who for that matter is checking up on me? could it be them phantom test growers? i hope not, i would like to think others are taking notice to the common sense i am dropping on you band wagon, drop to you knees and spank me please followers.

sad, very sad.

 

[Allowishus Gooberhagen]

I agree with arguments from both sides but I think people need to put down the pitchforks, and I think the "reps" need to realize they are reps. Last time RD was AWOL, they were traveling w/ little internet access, and everyone went insane. Once MrsRD returned everyone was in love again. Be patient! For the most part this should have been handled through PM or email. Why all the drama?

internet tough guy at it's best.

Stand up for myself? we fucking kidding....? it's the internet you simpleton. Who the fuck is coming to get me? what are you looking for street credit,along with grow reports now...

and were did I agree with anything Moonshine said? show my post stating such things... if you look at RDMI profile it is completly opposite from what your saying as I hate rude fucking people such as your self. who can't get anything across to anyone unless there is some kind of moronic slander attached..

your acting like I'm a SOLO act with beans . I have more seeds from Bodhi then I have of RD

maybe you can help me find these 1,000 of posts where I'm bashing people...

For the most part this should have been handled through PM or email. Why all the drama?

If you re-read my initial thread posting, there's nothing but love for RD. Soon as people started hating on RDMI or RD itself, he got a little defensive and I in return made some really negative comments that I actually deleted. I never wanted a SLAM thread on RD. I keep saying that, and will continue to. I will buy more of their gear and continue with my grow journals of Scott's OG and the Venom OG hopefully with stellar results.

Just so you all know, I'm no newb. I can grow some decent pot...

THIS THREAD NEEDED SOME COLOR ANYWAY!!!

 

[Capt. Stickyfingers]

I wonder why the Ms. hasn't chimed in on this thread yet. She's been here since the thread started. Is she avoiding it? She can get on the other thread and spread drop dates, I wonder why there is no interest in GDP's problem.
