STRAINLY

All this talk of reviews I figure I'll leave reviews here of who I've used. Everyone I've dealt with has been easy to deal with and prompt responses.

Mad scientist- good strong rooted clones,fast shipping

Shoreline- good healthy unrooted cuts, fast shipping

Red ribbon nursery- healthy clones, sorta pricey

Oneoftheluckyones- unhealthy clones that I would never send somebody
 
It's easy to say not saying it isn't tasty or look pretty in fact that's about all i can say for it i would much rather have Black Banana Cookies Sol Fire #4 cut or PB breath if i wanted a strain with Cookies in it.

My Devine Gelato I received from Mainly as a freebie seems to be stealing the show from the tropicana cookies.

The trop cookies is definitely not something that I would recommend to a new grower, or someone who doesnt have their game, and or environmental control 100% on point~ Its most definitely not the most vigorous in veg, and hence if the your mother isnt 100% content in veg, the clones will be slow and on and on~ But the terps are definitely crazy, orange crush with a subtle baked good smell lingering in the background is how I would describe her~ She is by far NOT a huge yeilder, but I have heard that the Tropicana Cherry fixes all of those issues, has a much more vigor in general, but especially in veg, which translates into flower, clone vigor etc. Not to mention on top of the Trop cookies normal ques, has a sweet candied cherry aroma stacked on top of all of the other delicious goodness, looking forward to this one for sure~

The divine gelato definitely blows away the trop in the yeild department, thats not even a question, but they both have their place I suppose~

I forgot to mention Lumpy's Apple Fritter, so I should have the Derrick OGKB 2.1, Lumpys Apple fritter, Tropicana cherry and the Runtz ready in about a month~ Really looking forward to see what the OGKB 2.1 is about, all reports I have seen is that its an absolute champ~ But time will tell~!

TBH the BBC#9 is an absolute CHAMP~ The people that have her know exactly what Im talking about, and it seems that those who dont, kind of over look it~ The vigor, the yield, the bud quality, the unique terp profile~ Its got it all~
 
People that already have and know the OGKB 2.1 would tell you that its in their top three EVER in potency, and fixes every issue that any previous cookie cuts had and then some. Also, unlike the other cookie cuts the 2.1 progeny seem to have a much more positive affinity to reliably pass on potency to its offspring~ Do you think in-house would be selling out seedpacks of it in record time for $200-$300 if it was bu-bu-bunk~? Me thinks not~ But to each their own~ Its all about what each individual deems "worth it"~

Just wanted to clarify my experiences with this site.
1st I appreciate that there is a place to buy clones.
2nd. Every clone I have received from all, I basically had to bring back from near death.
As even the best packaged clones, were not packaged properly.
Sunshine State Seeds was the best so far. And Redrum. But pretty much all had brown mushy growning shoots. Some much worse than others. Almost all had very little roots for claimed rooted clones.

I mean seriously, what the hell is wrong with all these people. And each had different ways of packaging. Most times you have to be super delicate opening these packages.

Here's the thing. All you need to do is buy clone shippers with leds. And put in healthy cuts. Pack them tightly so they don't move around.
How f'ing hard is this!!!!!!!!

That doesn't mean that they people aren't cool. Because lots of cool folks. Just not great practices.

I only have one experience with Strainly. I pulled the trigger on a cut of Crippy from Shoreline. He sent me three cuts. They all looked good. Even beautiful color of a deeper green. Shipping took a day longer than the tracking number showed for a total of 4 days. The first one rooted in 10 days. (Rockwool cubes). On top of it that was the first time I have rooted a clone. It was this thread and the feedback that helped make my decision.
 
I have only had the one transaction. I did want some other clones. I think cost has a lot to do with it. I wasn’t ready to spend hundreds of dollars on a cut. I would spend that money for cuts I wanted if there was some type of guarantee.

Appreciate your insight. I am running a complete organic biotab fertilizer grow with autopots and have experience 0 issues, almost never do with the biotab lineup. Everything you said is 100 spot on.
 
Pmp clones, fast shipping and cheap prices but limited communication. Poorly packed, heavily bruised. Clones were rooted but looked hungry and roots had brown spots. 3 of 4 survived and have brought with them root aphids. Joy! Cali root aphids pump iron btw. Fuuuuck...

Deeply rooted, fast shipping and good communication. I’ve heard some sketchy things on him so I wasn’t so sure and the clones came in looking hungry but rooted. Well packed, no bruising and a quick transition. He threw in extra for one looking hungry. Turns out they are super healthy clones with no issues and some of the best vigor I have seen.

Crippy keeper, fast shipping and is cool af. Unrooted cuts but will support the purchase in the event of issues, has been working toward best shipping practices. Good cuts! Bonus that he hangs out here like shoreline og. This dude has become my friend, I can’t say enough good things about him.

One of the lucky ones, fully rooted but sick looking. Solid shipping, non standard but well packed. Had aphids, powdery mildew, rust, scale, and was starving. Still easier to fight than Cali born root aphids. Nematodes FTW! On top of organacide, DE, neem cake, neem oil, sticky traps, and pyrithrine fogger. It’s supposed to be chem d, so far as it heals and gets more and more healthy I have no reason to doubt it. If so the trouble was worth it.
