Strains and seed banks

I see a lot of seed banks/breeders selling the same strain.Personally I am looking for Harlequin but I’m not sure who is “legitimate”. How can multiple seed banks sell the same strain?

Amazon has warehouses across the USA, yet they dont make any products...they are a distributor as are most seed banks.

You want to identify what breeder made it, find out what form it is/was available in (clone, seed) and find a source where it comes from that original breeder.

Many companies will make their own version of a strain i.e. grow a seed or clone of it and call it their own. That is where it gets dicey.

Ahhh. That makes sense. I need to do a little research to see who has a good strain.

alot of breeders will use the same strains to produce different ones just make sure you order from breeders who have been producing for along time i find thats your best bet i order from true north seed bank and there stuff all seems to be great never disappointed.
