So yeah, um alot of people say they're good growers and stuff but alot of

them buy seeds from seed banks and know they're gunna get some good

dank if they put little effort into tryin to grow that seed. Then once it

harvests they think they're the best..But wut about the guy who gets a

regs seed puts alot of effort into growing the regs seed and 6 months

later ends up with some purple kush looking budz and is as potent as some

durban poison..So yeah who do u think has more of a "Green Thumb" so to

speak:?:


Idk it just seems like the bagseed grower gets no credit really.:sad:

i have seen bag seed grows and most of them are pretty poor. dont get me wrong, some of them are brilliant.

i think most ppl will go for a seed strain so they can get some nice stuff. after all, thats one of the main reasons ppl grow.

a good grow is a good grow, doesn't matter if it's bagseed or "name brand"

it's as easy to fuck up a bag seed grow as it is to fuck up good genetics.

not enough light, too much or too little water, nutes, or ventilation etc

the more effort you put in, the better results you're going to get

maybe the people who spend good money on good genetics on average tend to treat the whole process more seriously--do more research, buy better equipment, etc--than the kid who puts a couple of bagseeds under a 60w incandescent bulb in his bedroom wardrobe

id imagine going with bag seeds, you could get such shitty genetics you would be damed right from the start, and some of us (including me) would rather know exactly what we are getting, and know the genetics are half decent.

by the same token, you may be just lucky enough to get good genetics from bag seeds, better than buying. but on the whole, yeah, growing from bag seed is most likely harder

i think the attention/time u give bagseed to grow (under the sun) the better the buds and the better it will be overall. Thats hard though if your plant isnt in walking distance.Just my opinion

I don't know what kind of bud YOU buy, but any seeds I get from bags are both rare and of excellent genetics, so there's really not any difference there, guys.

bagseed is only shit if it comes from shit weed ...

Putting good genetics in the ground in no way secures the quality of the end product. You still have to grow good genetics very well to get a very high quality plant.

The reason seed banks are good is because the offer stabilized strains, which means of course there is uniformity or near uniformity in the plants, that the seeds produced, from a certain strain create.

If you grow 10 bagseeds from a non stable plant (i e one that was accidently pollinated, or a hermi) your going to see a very wide variation in the phenotypes. Even if you grow them in the best possible conditions, to their full potential, your going to get some funky woody unpotent plants and some really stoney good tasting potent plants. Its just genetics, like that stupid cousin/uncle/etc you have that just got stuck with all the bad genes.

Not true, bagseed comes form accidently pollinated marijuana, your fucking up the genetics, the seeds you get from your Orange Krush MIGHT have one orange krush plant in the batch but the rest will vary some greatly.

This is why breeding isn't as simple as some people think, believe me.

You bring up good points. If it's Hermis you're dealing with, you're absolutely right.

If I ever get seeds, however, it's because I had pollen drift from some male I didn't kill early enough, or am pollinating elsewhere. So, while you're right in that I'll see one of a variety of phenos, those phenos are going to be all fucking good ... if both strains were stabilized or bred for. Given how inbred and narrow the breeding stock is these days, there's not too much chance you're going to get some random crap pheno.

I'd say that a majority of bag seeds from super-dank bags are accidently selfed. So ... great, consistent phenos ... could be slightly better chance of hermis.
