Anyone ever have success gettung anything off budtrader or instagram? Im thinking of getting clones through mail. Are these people legit?
 
I wouldnt trust it especially if you're not in a legal state.

Are you trying to get some clone only strains? If not I would recommend growing from seed and cutting your own clones.

Over here in Northern California there are dispensaries that sell clones. Within driving distance for sure.

If your states legal and you have dispensaries maybe Google the ones that sell clones and take the drive.

I'm from the bay area and used to get nice clones from Harborside in Oakland.

Hopefully it will be like that in Ireland oneday.

I wouldnt risk it. I bought clones off of CL a few times here in LA and never had good results. Worst case scenario you get bugs or PM. Best case you have an unknown pheno. Unless its a really highly rated breeder that is pheno hunting, lots of these clone sellers just pop beans, find females and clone without running testers. Plus you dont know if that pheno is the one that will suit your growing style and med needs.. You might get lucky but I would rather pop a few seeds.

Ah shit! Harborside was exactly what I was talking about.

But Im confused. Are you in Ireland? Or are you in the states?

Are you in a state in Ireland than has legalized weed?

I live in Ireland now with no plans on moving back. Gay marriage and abortion are legal here now so hopefully weed is next.

Fair enough. Yea thats a tough one. I'd quicker find a illegal grower there and get a cutting than order in the mail at that point.

Good luck my friend.

I just start from seed now so its no big deal.

Being from California you would laugh at the shit people sell here for €15-20 per gram. You wouldnt be able to give it away for free in Ca.

Well its green and has some thc in it but it's very shitty in comparison to what I was used to and hardly got my high when I first moved here. I used to deliver for EAZE and would always get good discounts so my tolerance was pretty high.

I have seen some good looking stuff that was probably imported from Amsterdam for €80 an eigth but there's no way I would pay that.

Of course I dont have to worry about any of that anymore.
 
I would stick w seeds, mostly because of bugs and pm that often come w mass produced clones.
But if you do go clones, quarantine them and spray/gas/dunk them to be sure they are clean.
I've spent a few months breeding bugs instead of raising nugs.
Preventing bugs is best.
 
Here in illinois the dispensaries dont sell clones because the growers dont want to release genetics. No seeds either. Im thinking of starting my own nursery to fulfill needs...

I don't blame them!
Why give away your secret sauce?
If you can get them, it could be worth keeping a backup cut to mother out and take another round off of.-never know for sure what will be available next time. Be self sufficient.
