My Opinion about Rare Dankness...

I have done quite a bit of research and perhaps I think about it a little more than I should due to the fact that I have an extreme interest in Rare Dankness gear. It's an interest based on wonder and curiosity. The Ghost OG and Nevils Wreck I see and read about online tantalize me with temptation. Although I know close to nothing about Rare Dankness except what I read here and on KindReviews, Skunk Magazine, and Hightimes... I often see them get flamed. The trolls who flame them are doing so usually based on no evidence that the company has anything Subpar. The negative comments I read are mostly ignorant and biased. I think this happens when anything new or anyone new comes in this industry and proves some kind of success. In this case it's winning the cup and leaping into the retail world of seed selling with none of us knowing too much about the company. Obviously ICMag users have some familiarization with Moonshine man and some of the fruits of his labor.

One comment I just read and it wasn't neccessarily a bad comment, but just something that I think comes to mind with most of us...

The RollitUp General Public said:
...RD's beans are untested, they can not tell you what phenos you will find, cause they dont know;)
Well according to a post I read from Ms RD.. they are and were tested, at least some of their lines by other dispensories.. and from seeing the posts on Kind Reivews and Strainman I guess there is some legitimacy to her claim. We gotta remember RD is here to satisfy the medical community and the high times crowd.. somewhere we fit in there too.. but obviously the companies #1 priority wasn't to prove to us that the seeds they sell are proven stable before they went retail. Not saying that's entirely a bad thing, because for all I know they good have some real winners. I wouldn't doubt for a second that this be the case even tho mostly everything I see is an F1.

Here's the truth tho.. Three Facts that No one can dispute..

1. Rare Dankness is working with Clone Only proven winners. Dank as hell cuts.

2. Nearly every other breeder out there is also selling F1's of Clone only polyhybrids crossed with other polyhybirds. Example TGA Plushberry, one of the most popular newer crosses out there.. Black Cherry Soda x Jacks Cleaner.. or Cali Connect Tahoe OG Kush x Just about every other OG or Sour Diesel X Chem.. blah blah blah... it's really nothing new.. everyone else is doing it.

3. Rare Dankness won the Sativa cup. Well if that's not proof that they work with some major Dank IDK what is.. not saying alll the cup winners are really that special but #1 Sativa.. that really says something.

I myself am not going to discount Rare Dankness as being ordinary or sub quality. I am going to give them a legitimate chance by growing some of their gear and then make an educated decision. I have some Venom OG now and am working on getting a couple other strains so in the near future I will know if pulling the trigger and spending $80USD a pack is worth it or not. One or two posts claiming someone got hermies isn't validity to say their gear is poor or not. Cannabis is a dual sex plant and hermies happen. I've seen preflowers from growers who grow TGA, Cali Connect, Bodhi, Mosca, etc. Sometimes it just happens. Sometimes it's the growers fault, sometimes it's just genetic and a bad phenotype.. with Cannabis it happens.

Me myself having experience growing unreleased untested gear from friends and breeders like Subcool and Alphakronik genes know that when you get a pack of seeds that you know virtually nothing about it can actually be an exciting experience. The phenotypes surprise you and to me part of the fun of growing is all in the pheno hunt. Select the keepers, harvest and toss the rest. It's one of the most rewarding things in growing cannabis from Seed. Self discovery of something Dank and something no one else has. We all hear of cuts like Kyle Kushman's strawberry cough, Kromes Triangle, Skunkmasterflex's Larry OG.. these growers found killer phenos from seed and people identify their selections by the growers name.. because they did the work and found something killer. There are a few people I know right now holding Batman's Space Princess... something most people will only read of.. because it's absolutely elite and only people close to me experience it.. that's how legends start and that's how these clone only legendary strains come about.. From seed. & who knows there could be a killer Moonshine Haze or Trainwreck Willie pheno out there that could be the next big deal.. Obviously is the famous clone onlys come about because they are Dank x Dank.. and Rare Dankness releases mostly Dank x Dank.. they have great potential.

I absolutely believe that this company has some real killer lines & that is why I am going to give them a chance. It is my opinion only and obviously I am entitled to it. I hope to share with you all what I find after I grow some out. Unfortunately I do not have the opportunity to be a tester as I am not in the right circle to get test beans so I will have to spend a little money... hopefully we will all know soon by proven documentation from our own community that this company has some real special lines.

& please no negative feedback. This is just me showing my opinion to the rest of the world. I do not wish to be flamed and nothing any of the haters can say will make me change my mind or think otherwise. I hope you all have a good day and enjoyed reading this. Hopefully it gives some optimism to those who like me have interest in this new company.

Nicely put Batman. I can't wait to get my RD beans and get them going. Well excited to try something new & intresting.
 
Great post Batman. I am becoming a fanboy of rd myself. Like you said they appear to be f1's of dank x dank, and for me thats what I want. I would love to spend years with a strain like ogGTH.

Yo Rare D MI, Is there a Michigan hook up on RD seeds?

Right now on the west side of the state you can go to pure west. SE mi is adding more spots, but currently RD is available at 3rd coast in Ypsilanti. Coming soon will be Detroit area, flint and northern Michigan.

good words, bro.
it's possible to find some later male flower in a large number of top strains.... chemdog, diesel ...

i'm running under 400w hps 3 gth #1 and just sprouted 3 gth #8.

all the gth#1 is a little immature, but i've to put them under 12/12 for some reason.
I'm waiting to see preflowers on them. I know it's not the best to put immature plants in flower, but i've had to throw all my plants except 1 for security reason . And it's not $ convenient to have only one plant in flower. When alarm stop, i've putted the three gth1 that i've outdoor under 12/12.

the point is that all the three gth1 are similar in shape , leaves and structure.

sorry for my bad english , bros ....

This is exactly how I feel also! Pheno hunting is all the rage! Exploring and finding new strains. Growing only proven strains that have been done many times can get boring but some people like cookie cutter grows.

Well put, but it kind of sounds like you want to be considered as a tester. I mean, that is your thing, right? I dont understand the argument about $cost/pack. How much do you make/save off growing your own. I know I save at least $80;-) LOL. If you want to be a tester, just say it!

I hear ya batman skunk.
My problem is that anything high times rates is mostly B.S.
I never tried any of RD seeds, so I can't comment there.
I did ask Moonshine a few questions, breeder to breeder, at IC about AC and ventilation and he couldn't bother with a response.
Because of that, I will never recommend his gear or even show interest in it.
You know as well as I do that there is a ton of dank at the places we hang out and guys are making crosses with the same strains.
I would not spend hard earned cash bro.

I can say that my favorite sativa as of 2012 is without a doubt Somali Taxi Ride. I can't say anything else about RD cause I don't know anything other than Somali Taxi Ride is a real gem of a sativa if you have patience to grow her out.

As far as High Times goes, well I have read one or two, and I hold nothing they say as truth. I wouldn't believe Danny Danko any further than I can chuck his fat arse :) His personal Tax info showed he made 3.1 million between 2010-2011...on ADVERTISING Alone....Im sorry, he has nobodies Interest in Mind but his own. You couldn't get Danko to save 100 prego women from drowing a horrible death unless it involved him making a buck. Worse than a bloomberg in NY is a Danko in NY claiming to have some truth.

With that, Thank YOU RD for Somali Taxi Ride :)

yeah that's what i picked up myself. call it what you want but you started out talking like how the haters were talking and i guess now you got the same offer another mod got and now it's like let's respect rd and everyone is haters. the whole time you were crying it was all just to become a tester, i see it's starting to become a trend with this community.

guwall +1 rep for picking up on that vibe, i thought i was the only one that peeped that..

also in reference of the thread, for those that's really wanting to try rd gear just buy it, i am pretty sure any problems Mrs Rd will take care of it. if she wasn't or didn't have any good intentions behind her words, i don't think she'd be hitting these boards the way she does. she clearly have shown and continues to show that she's here for the customer overall satisfaction and nothing less.
