Dr.Greenthumbs!?

Wyteberrywidow: I don't see how you get your rocks off saving 50 bucks on some seeds when your time is so obviously worth nothing that you'll stretch a thread out to over 20 pages posting the same shit over and over. Your 50 dollars in savings is now worth nothing - you just spent days perpetuating a stupid flamewar that contributes nothing. Get a job or something. But hey, I guess you don't get to 10000 posts without a significant amount of utter shit being posted - nobody has 10000 thoughts worth sharing in their lifetimes. Ok, now I've given you at least two things to disagree with, so go ahead and respond as you inevitably will, but I should warn you that I won't be reading it.

Everyone else: the irony of arguing about an independent breeder charging what he wants and needs to charge in a rip-off industry like weed growing is astounding. As a group, we buy more than anyone else in the home gardening community combined. We spend so much money we make trust fund babies driving around in their parent's bentleys look like shoeless hobos. I know I'm not alone in that I have to drop $5000 just to get my room set up and my lights blazing, but you know what? This is a high-value crop and we wouldn't be doing it like this if it wasn't worth it. What I mean is that it's better to toss a breeder some bucks than anyone else in the supply chain, this is an inverted pyramid resting on strength of your genetics.

Indeed. Isn't if funny, whenever you buy something it seems so damn expensive, but when you run the numbers it's still worth it?

I think wyteberrywidow works for Attitude and this is all about dissing greenthumb for the benefit of Attitude

lol@wbw he told that chump get a job or something... hahahahaha

$200 for 2 seeds......Damn i'd probably lose one somehow.I'll be going with the doc's iranian g13-10 seeds $200 also his iranian chemdog-10 seeds $150.I don't think anyone is a fool for paying $100 per seed if thats what they want to grow.WBW the only thing i agree with you about is the G-13's price,nothing else.

i don't want to piss in anyones cornflakes or say anything bad about anyone but I paid TOP dollar for some beans from Cali Connection and i had a ton of hermies and wasted MONTHS of my time. How do you put a price on that? Yeah, I saved about $50 by NOT buying the same seeds from Greenthumb but I will NEVER do that again. I have never had a hermy from any of greenthujmb's beans and to me that is worth ANY price. Even the hermy prone Trainwreck didn't have a single hermy flower.i bought Joeys C99 and it was nothing like as good a greenthumb's C99 which IMHO is the closest thing to the original bros grimm as there is. Greenthumb says he makes S1s with his own technique. I don't know but I do know they're doing something right over there and I for one will pay whatever it takes to get QUALITY and RELIABILITY. Excellence kids, comes at a price.

I have been growing DrGreenthumb strains forever and seems like his older genetics were much more potent than his current stock.The plants are still of AAAA quality if you look at them but the stone just isnt as strong as it used to be on his Dope,Chemdawg,OG Kush and Bubba Kush.I tried his Oh Zone and have a pack that I will probably never grow.That is only my opinion and those of the 4 patiants I am caregiver for.Thank god I still have some original Dope and Chemdawg X LA Kush which has by far been his best strain next to his Endless Sky that I still have a regular non fem version.I have a side by side of 3 of his strains going and will be getting smoke reports from my patiants.I will pay $300 a pack even $500 a pack in a heartbeat for his pre 2010 genetics.Maybe my patiants and I are just burnt out.

but $100 per seed? really...c'mon. like i said before he will start jacking hes price if people keeps buying hes gear. i know that he is legit and probably one of the best breeder or whatever that is why people buys hes stuff to get the stellar mom, so no doubt, to the point that he raise hes price coz he knows and everyone who grows it knows that people will buy it even if it cost them an arm and a leg. its the law of supply and demand...if consumers stop getting hes gear he will drop the price, then he can start playing with hes price to the point that he can maximize hes sales from the said strain, meaning if majority or at least a minority of people who can make him enough profit for one product alone.

all im stating is, he is manipulating the seed market industry same as big companies at least not for now. if marlboro lower hes price then other company will start to follow the trend. why? because it is a household name, if marlboro starts jacking the price up other company may or may not follow the trend at least for the moment. if they see that people will still buys them and make more profit, so why not jack up the price as well.

inflation and deflation are most likely based on smaller commodities like rice, wheat, electricity, water, animal feeds etc etc etc...if all of this shit start raising the price dont you think this manufacturer will not do the same as there expenses are much higher than usual?

bottom line is, you pay $200 for 2 seeds you get the stellar, phenomenal, superb, out-of this world mom, i paid $200 for 20 seeds worst case scenario i get 1 stellar mom, (you got 2 and i got 1) and the rest were reject, at least for breeding purposes or for a keeper. on my part i got 1 exceptional mom and get to smoke or sell 19 more plants. then maybe ill buy more seeds "not from the doc" shit then i can run 50 more seeds that i still paid much cheaper than buying $200 for 2 seeds.

potency wise, how potent should a cannabis plant be anyways? im pretty sure we all are stoners here and pretty much smoked a lot of weed...so the question is, are we able to get much high with a potent plant the knocks the sock out of you with one toke and still knows that there are a stronger more potent plant there is? the answer is yes, but are we able to defferenciate that?
so i dont understand why people still needs to support this...

maybe you can start breeding them and start selling the seeds for a reasonable price as opposed to the doc selling it over priced. lol...$300-$500 a pack of how many seeds? seems like the doc is the flavor of the month at riu. i had enough of this, peace out everyone

Yeah i know like im the only one with 10,000 posts on this site...
What makes you think i have no job,what makes you think i have no money?
I live in a house, Im currently waiting for a w-2 form(something that someone gets when they work) and i have a wife and sons..So why the hell would i spend 200 on seeds when i can get great quality for half the price.

Sounds like you have a ton of problems as a grower..Tough luck

i was quoting punkenstein...this has nothing to do if i grew any of docs gear. i was making a humor that maybe he can produce seeds out of hes regular seeds that dr greenthumb decide to sell it only on feminized form. but the answer to your question is none, i have not grown any of hes gear, if you have read my other post i was saying that i am regretting that i did not bought hes gear which at that time was $200 for 10 seeds, and i will regret it again if i did not buy the $150 for 5 seeds if he starts jacking up the price...which he actually did with the g13 and most likely will do it on hes other elite strains if people keeps buying hes gear.

wyteberrywidow. I don't know why yu want to disrespect everybody who doesn't see things the way you do and no it was not a gardening problem the seeds i got from Cali Connect were a hermy nightmare and literally thousands had hermy problems with them. for someone who claims to know it all you certainly are out of touch

Cant blame a man for trying to save everyone a buck , especially in this economy. give him a break

Sorry but when a breeder claims he has G13 seeds at $200 for 2 then that's when common sense should kick in, this guy is ripping people off.
