I've been battling the flu (had COVID last Thanksgiving) and did zero Black Friday shopping. Hoping to score something good from their Monday reverse auction fest. Anyone try Greezy? Any speculation about or interest in the new drops?

It's 50% off everything right now. Depending on what you want, may be worth just taking the automatic discount than having to watch the reverse auction all day to get the right price. I got one of the new strains on reverse auction for $36, but most of the time it wasn't getting much below $50 before being snatched up.

I think that sale was only yesterday maybe? I'm seeing some as low as $36 but prices range widely up to $98. Not seeing any mention of a current sale, just a blog post that doesn't specifically mention anything for today or tomorrow. I can be patient, I'm like others here and have a backlog of stuff I want to try "soon" or "some day" haha

I almost feel bad supporting the guy after hearing about all the fuckery, and witnessing some juvenile behavior as well. But he was getting more hate than Satanist, and that'll make anyone defensive, but still juvenile. Ultimately, I'm ok with picking up a few packs here and there of his better work and/or autos for around $15 on the reverse auction. I'm finally dipping my toes in the auto pool and figured I would screw up cheap beans on the learning curve instead of Mephisto or Roc Bud. This is a Chem4 auto that made some elegant fox tails. I had other plants, Med Tree autos, 20231008_100119.jpg20231008_100340.jpg20231008_100354.jpg20231014_142023.jpg20231014_141813.jpg20231014_142508.jpg20231023_181557.jpg20231023_182110.jpg20231124_004740.jpg20231124_004547.jpgin the same environment, same living soil, that were hard as golf balls so i don't think this was grower error. She got cut in half by a clumsy friend early in flower, so the bottom half is all she could offer. The smoke was real nice and didn't loose nearly as much mass drying as anticipated. Smells of orange zest and classic chem. Lingering sweet chem on exhale. Popped a couple more that are just starting to bud and got a better veg (last two pics).

I scored a cheap pack of their new Platinum Frosting on reverse auction a couple of days ago. Looking forward to giving that a try.
Watch out for balls. Both the GZ and PF are showing intersex traits on some plants. "Just pluck em off" is the mentality in play. Anyone harking back to the days of any sort of stability on this issue is called a clown. "it's 2024 man...not 1990". Yeah....we're seeing that in "your" wares ....

"Testing" is ongoing...yet...as you see...the seeds were already released/are being sold. Don't drop the soap/don't let your guard down. You will find some good smoke in there but you can say that with most everyone seeds now cus they are all dipping their toes in the same pool.

What's with all the animosity and snarkyness? I know there were some fights quite a while back, but I thought that was in the rearview mirror. Asking because I don't get it, not looking to argue. If you really don't like Greenpoint seeds or the company, there are 1000 other seed peddlers, no?

Hey forum,
I finished growing Gooey Glue from Greenpoint. I would advise not to grow that one. Very very small yield. You grow some huge plant and only get two or three grams dry, all that time and money is not worth it. I don’t know what they were thinkin, pollen chucking I guess.
I also recently tried to start some Dawg Lemons that were about a year and a half old, nothing sprouted. Too old I guess?
I had a pack of Royal Chem ( purple punch x stardawg ) opened it and there were only seven seeds? I emailed them and received no response. Six started but one aborted. The other five are difficult. I had to use tweezers to remove the husk once they opened. They won’t grow unless you do. Very slow and weak. You know the ones that start yellow? You have to play doctor to get them to grow (remove the husk and membrane). But I am happy, five seem to be growing. It looks like a long road from here.

Very happy with Dotz and Double Dip, I’ve run both twice. Dawg lemons was a complete fail for me also. 11 seeds ~1.5yr old all failed and I pulled out all of the tricks.

For sure. They are just one of the many seedy outfits out there who merely buy and spray clones and then sell the seeds. Just another group of folks focused on profit from the plant without any regard to what they are doing TO the plant as they continue down the rabbit hole of spraying/crossing plants endlessly...dragging unwanted traits along because "people want the latest stuff...not some old (stable) shit".

"just pluck 'em off!"
