trying to get $100k plants 
4 Likes
Ok just my 2 cents
I’ve spent 20 $ a pack and 100 a pack
On seeds and both were exceptional!
Gage green wow expensive af some pics look pretty but for that kind of money it should come with samples really!
And really when a seed vender lists a pack of seeds and no pic well it shouts out to me tester and for big $ at that
For the most part
I feel that anything over 100 is a rip off
Ok the new stuff well really is it any better then what out Preservation Runs send out
All these funky names like runtz , wedding cake , cookies Skittles ect im sorry nothing beats an old nl5 or a gogi OG cut or a good mazer he’ll herijuana still works for me
I can’t see paying that kind of money for seeds that should be reasonably priced after all it’s still a phenom hunt and a crap shoot
I’ve run a ten pac of Motarebel paid 100 $ for and got 9 males but the female was amazing ( but with nothing to compare it to who knows if it was the one !)
I would love to try some of these fad strains but who want to spend 200 plus on a 10 pack of seed and get something they are not pleased with not me
Wow and did you see these boxed sets available 6 or 7 strains like 1000 $ really
I’m glade some one can afford it
I will say that if I tried some smoke and thought it was worth the money I maybe would spend $$ on it
That’s why smoke festivals are great for this but Covid happened
And anyway
The peeps on OG make some great seeds
Please no more group buys not sure if my bogs seeds are really bogs at all
Rambling on now

Rather its our tolerance, or how bud tastes, or how the terps smell, it could be the way the bud makes us feel, it’s all based on personal preferences.
I have purchased $200+ strains and wasn’t impressed. I have also purchased $40 strains that made me glad that I got those for $200.
I understand when it’s not that big of a difference to some. I could drink taka vodka, but I prefer the taste of absolute. To an alcoholic it may not make that big of a difference since all they want is something to drink. So I guess it the same with some smokers. I have had people tell me that they just want to smoke. So it doesn’t matter to them. What a crock because I put it to the test. I stop providing my good bud to them and started giving them bud grown from those $40 bean packs. And guess what, they quit coming over. And when they do come back, I give them the same thing, bud from those $40 packs. It’s the same thing, I might not see the for over 6 months. That’s a huge difference when they were coming a few times a day.
Now that I got rid of the “it don’t matter crowd”, I started giving out bud from those $200 pack of beans. …. And guess what?¿not one person complained about it. If it wasn’t a difference, they would still be coming by.
It crazy because in one sentence a guy will say bud is all the same and there is no difference. But when you ask him why he grows a particular strain, we already know the answer to that question. He grows it because he likes to smoke it more. That tells me there is something different about it.
It’s seems to me that the only reason some bitch about prices is because that are messed up about the money that someone else is making.
We call that shit “acting like… well you know.”
What kind of people hate when they see another man stacking his chips?¿ Well you know the answer to that one as well.
For real, mofos are lucky that breeders even offer their work for sale, because they could keep it all to themselves.

Well my issue is the one’s selling for obscene amounts of money are also trying to say they’re helping the community and whatnot. Like no, your only reason for doing it at all is clearly because of the money, not to help anyone. If you wanted to help anyone than the beans would be affordable.
I’m against price gouging and all for value for work. No amount of growing a plant makes seeds worth 10s or 100s of dollars. Yeah its whatever people want to pay for it, but people don’t generally make great choices. That leads to others following suit. And then we’re all paying for it.
Just look at phones. Apple said you don’t need a 3.5mm jack, every other brand laughed, then removed it the next year. Then apple said you don’t need a charger in your $1500 iphone box, everyone laughed. Next year no one includes chargers in the box. Not to mention, Apple’s exorbitant price gouging of their devices has caused every other manufacturer to raise their prices too. All because not smart people think higher price = better product

Imagine paying 1250 for a pack of herms 
“Whale” pricing… real common in mobile games too.
I’m honestly glad to see people complain about it as it means it shouldn’t become the norm.

OK but what about the $200 packs being sold for $2000 or how about $5000? Does your same logic apply? While I get premium stock costs more than average stock there also still needs to be some realistic pricing IMO

Supply and demand determines pricing
Complaining doesn’t

The most I’ve paid aside from a compound pack is like around 150 to 200 a pack and usually less!
But in the end companies make money off demand and set pricing accordingly. Cannabis is gonna be exploited like any other market commodity. Look at luxury watches

His friend bought the cap junky cut 1k and held a group buy on my discord to sell it to like 4 people for 200 a clone
ROI, supply and demand, cost distribution, these are the determining factors and people like jjbeezy and cap know people WILL pay

Man’s gotta eat and shipping cuts is harder than people understand
Truthfully I wouldn’t put 6 months of time and resources toward growing something that wasnt worth anything to the person that handed it to me.
I know money doesn’t make the strain. But I also know that I’m not buying a strain. What I am buying, is into that breeders genetics.
I also know know exactly what to do with those expensive genetics… which is use them to create something awesome. Which was exactly what the breeder intended.
No breeder is going to hand you a pack of his money making beans. But instead he will hand you a cross and tell you to tear your ass and do what you do with it.
That’s you brother if you are selling yourself short and by purchasing second rate bean. That’s also you spending forever working with that shit and never coming up with anything worthwhile.
You act as if you don’t see those tons of beans being passed around but nothing great is coming from them. Or as I like to say, “how is that shit working for you?” It quite obvious that it’s isn’t working worth a fux because so many guys wouldn’t be spending their days looking for something worth growing and smoking.
The guys that got that good shit, ain’t handing it out for nothing no matter how a mofo bitch and cry
People on overgrow put more work into, will openly tell you more about, and will provide way more pictures of their gear than 98% of self proclaimed breeders out there. And you know what they’re all telling the truth too, at least most of us are haha.

Yeah this.

In terms of paid for packs, Professor P is probably the only breeder I’ve seen put so much work and info into what he releases, and his most expensive packs are like $150. Bodhi and Doc D at least try. Tony does a good job too.
But Gage Green? MMS? Aficionado? Where’s the pics or info of the parents? Where’s the info on why you picked what you did. Where’s the pheno breakdowns of the progeny? Oh wait, most of these guys are just chucking pollen and not selecting anything at all. Anyone can buy some “elites” and chuck that pollen for $500 a pack. Good luck selling it though.

Those guys are so lame
Rather buy bloom, doc d, top dawg (don’t like the prices), etc etc
Really it’s not about the price. Some over-rated breeders like aficionado or Oni you find out you should actually be paying attention to mean gene or Harry palms not these hanger ons that made too many bucks off their work.
Just thought I’d definitely mention some breeders are super overrated and not worth the money

The world is full of copy cats who instead of doing the work, will just rebadge someone else’s work.
Then there are those who want to know what breeder put into a strain so they can try to recreate it.
On several occasions I have had guys get bud from me, the. Stop on the end of my street and sell it for $40 a gram. You say that’s crazy and no one will give someone that. Yeah they will if you had bud that smokes like what I’m talking about.
So tell me what is a bean worth that you can sell the bud from it for $40 a g?
How many of you got bud that brings a premium like that? If you got it, dm me because I want a pack $$$. Talk is cheap.
