I placed an order with with a member from and site, and was curious if anyone ever ordered from Clone Soprano? If so, how was your experience?
Currently waiting on the mail now, I'll post up and log once I receive my package.

Tbh it seems most will send out reasonably good quality plants. The real kicker is are they sending out hlv or another virus.

Who cares if they post fast or send legit clone of not if it has a virus.

Personally ill ask a vendor if they test their plants. If they have no tests I wont pay for anything. If every buyer here does the same, every vendor will start testing or else sell nothing. So start asking peeps.

I had suspected Pinkbox's Norcal Dosido was a dud when I got it at the same time as the MB15. I accidentally knocked the DOSI off a table and it snapped clean in half and when i tried to re-root it, i noticed the stem was super brittle. They quietly took the Dosido off the menu shortly after that. I flowered the MB15, it had huge fan leaves, was quite vigourous and didnt seem like a dud but I wasnt that impressed with the way it smoked.

When did you receive the MB15? I received one earlier this year and I knew within a few weeks something was not right and tossed it. My plants are well-kept and this thing looked extremely sick. Leaves were miniaturized and had zero vigor. I assume pink boxes MB15 wasn't patient zero and other cuts infected it at some point.

The MB15 that was just tested and came back positive was sent to me 1/19/21 from pink. He’s had it since the beginning of the year if not longer.

You can cut a top, root it. It will be infected but not showing signs in veg. But eventually it does take over everything. You can do flower runs and some branches seem normal while other parts dud out. But eventually all the plants get it bad. You can touch a branch it just falls off. It's like a zombie plant. In veg with mine the plants were snapping at the base where the roots meet the stem. They literally fell over and died

Yo thats so not cool we need a sticky thread for known tested HLV clones and the vendor...include the disclaimer we are not shaming, we must stop the spread.
Completely agree... This is going to become a new epidemic in growing I think. Really its only worth getting clones from people who test plants. There's vendors selling some clones for 1k and they test nothing. You telling me they sell clone for that but refuse to spend $20 on a test

I just harvested a Gelato 41 that I got from Ocean Grown Clones. My gloves barely got sticky. The plant had no vigor or stretch with thin, crooked stems. I'm not saying for sure that it's dudded, has hplvd, or whatever, but it sure seems like it. I will send a leaf sample to dark heart for testing.
People couldn't get enough of the gelato #41 we carried a while back. It was unreal. It doesn't stretch hard but thin and crooked shouldn't be adjectives used to describe this pheno. Sounds like something went wrong somewhere. Here's some outdoor mid-cycle....Screenshot_20200716-204007_Instagram.jpg

I was gonna say that kinda looks like it, but then I looked at the harvested bud again. The only similarity it has to Gelato 41 is the orange hairs I've seen in some pics. It doesn't have the calyx structure at all though.

Dark Heart replied so I'll be sending samples soon. All my other plants in the flower room look great, especially a couple of the Apple Tartz (from seeds).

I suspected all along that this wasn't the real clone-only cut. Now I don't even know if it's from a Seed Junky pack or if it's gelato at all.

Hey all, after like 2 f*ckin' years we're back on strainly. Crazy to have seen this forum grow from like 10 pages to 277. Tried to rock it out in the California legal scene and..... welp..... were back on strainly lololol :clap: went from a 120 light comercial grow to 1 315 cmh, 1 clone rack and 2 leds for a flower space... all in a basement in Illinois :-?
1 315 cmh, 1 clone rack and 2 leds can do a lot of good for the community!!!
