Let me start by saying, 1 growers experience does not warrant this amount of hatred toward such a well established an renowned breeder, such as the 808 fam. First of all, the father of the owner if 808 moved to Kuai, Hawaii in 1960. He followed the best weed in the world, back to it’s origins and moved there. He got the know the local growers, and became one himself, eventually being gifted strains dating back over 100 years. Others like Australian Duck Foot tracing back to Australia from hundreds of years ago.

Fast forward to 2008, the father dies, and his son takes over. His son, the current owner of 808, is a super nice very chill dude. He and his wife handle all the emails and shipping, it’s a family run Hawaiian business. I personally LOVE growing his strains, and i always get genetic tests from Farmer Freeman to confirm the sex (808 sells reg. seeds only)

Incredible breeder, super duper tasty strains, very unique breeding style. I may sound like a fan boy, but honestly i just hate seeing hate from some weirdo with no respect. Just wanted to clear the air about 808.

ALSO!!! I paid $200 and got over 80 seeds, he runs sales sometimes that are fantastic. I have no affiliation, just a colorado grower that found 808 on a podcast a little over a year ago. Since then i’ve grown a few strains from them, 10/10 would recommend.

Be careful for the fake 808 websites, there’s only 1 real one

Since you wanted to resurrect this dead topic,

808 Jake has a bunch of clone onlies, sure, like crippy, cherry pie, papaya, etc

But the whole marketing thing is just that… a bunch of marketing bullshit. He got these clones online or from others, not his daddy. Crippy comes from FL not this clown :clown_face: and his daddy.

His beans are OK, germination issues as above, and guy is full of it and hype himselfs beyond the max. I knew he was untrustworthy after a buddy posted a “roadkill” cross from 808 that was just blatantly crippy crossed with diesel.

I have a bunch of his gear and will run some of it. But there’s a shitload of liars and marketers in this game.

They also have a bunch of rabid fans unfortunately, I was a fan at a point, dumb enough to buy a whole lineup of peanut butter breath x strawberry runtz, but not so stupid as to buy a bunch of NFTs that are now basically worthless

Had same issue with BeLeaf - No germination of Thanks for the heads up. The seed prices are too high
so any input from other cultivators can be taken seriously. $100.00 (+/-).

All the seeds I got directly from 808 genetics have had tremendous germination rates and are definitely some outstanding plants… I did a large order and I got some freebies and a mat. That’s my experience, take what you want from it.
