Best advice I can give is do whatever you want to do. All of this is just advice. The seed sellers will tell you buy seeds, clones are scary. The clone dealers will tell you, buy clones the genetics are better. At the end of the day you have experience from both sides of the aisle. A bunch of positive people and a bunch of negative nancys. That is called consumerism or in honesty reality. But no one on here should be telling you what you should or should not do. That is just too arrogant for this community. You make up your own mind. bongsmilie :peace:
How old are the tests on the apple fritter and the SFV? I been looking at them for a while now.

Also it seems you're the only vendor that has a real presence in the forum community. Really the only one I see standing behind his work and defending it.

So pinkbox sells fakes, and then later gets "legit cuts"? I wonder if they are planning to send the legit cuts to all the people who bought fakes from them for $100 a pop.
Idk. I’ve only flowered a small sample of his cuts but 4/4 cuts that made it to flower for me were confirmed real in one way or another. The dudding issue I think is enough to stay away but I personally haven’t had an issue with fake cuts for whatever that’s worth.

If you separate from dogma, purchasing select cuts from reputable individuals and having them tested is less effort and more cost-effective than hunting through seeds. If you don't test and don't scrutinize selections, seeds are a good option. Elite cuts are generally not going to be found in 1 or 2 packs of the seed lottery. Understanding hpLVd can be transferred from parent stock to seed further erodes any advantages. It seems strange to take cuts in while understanding the risk, yet refusing to quarantine and test. Particularly when dudding is no longer a mystery. I've had flops on strainly and elsewhere but still came out well ahead in terms of time and money saved searching for plants. That said, my current favorite cut is from purchased seed. I think it's fun to do both when done right.
That's only if the seeds you buy come from Infected plants. Which I would think is fairly unlikely

he could have said anything, he could have said he got scammed and nothing sent if he really wanted to try to ruin the guys rep. Seems a bit of a coincidence that he said he got dudding plants when it seems to be a reoccurring trend on strainly atm.
 
I agree that PM is not systemic. It's a fungus, which doesn't have the ability to flow through the plant.
Agree. Powdery mildew is like Ringworm in animals/humans IMO. Highly contagious, you’d think it was systemic but it’s not it’s just the spores spreading from the site and infecting other portion of the animals. It’s localized and the “systemic” effect you see is just growers interpretation because people can’t see the spores so assume it’s spreading from within.

all about environment anyways. If you don’t give the spore the right conditions to germinate then it never will. You can literally have pm spores all over your plant, I bet, without an infection if you don’t give them what they need to pop.

cannabis seed needs water to germinate.
fungal spores need humidity, warmth and ambient condition swings aka a grow room with no environmental controls.

speaking of strainly, I had a few cuts I wanted to let go as I got bills to pay, do you really have to be a licensed nursery? I assume you don’t but if another member reports you you’ll be deleted/banned I assume?

Environment isn't too important as long as it has a host.

You can also spread pm mechanically like on scissors that's also probably why people think it's systemic. They are just using the incorrect terms. It's more parasitic not systemic.
