I have read a lot of differing opinions on the Mass Medical Strains (MMS) seeds, and I thought I would post here to get more opinions about them and their cultivars. I have had my eye on a few strains of theirs for quite awhile, such as PuTang, and I was wondering if the plants that people here have grown live up to the hype of their pictures and colorful descriptions that MMS posts online and in the seed banks.
I have read some negative things about the breeder in this thread here on overgrow:
I am not familiar with Prof P or any of the other people mentioned in the other thread, and have not heard the MMS guy on any podcasts, etc, so I am clueless about all of that, but felt that maybe it was best to discuss all of that here as well as other things MMS-related in this thread that I started specifically about Mass Medical Strains.
Peace. Iām my experience with their gear (which is limited) I have had the Fisheye OG and ran it nicely. I also have vegged the Prayer Pupil ( had to chop down becuz of unwanted guest soon to arriveā:face_with_symbols_over_mouth:). Have also vegged Putang. (cut that down for what I THOUGHT was balls on a confirmed female clone. I could have been wrong on it but didnt want to risk).
All in all I have had mixed opinions of him and his gear. I can say that he is not the most knowledgeable breeder as he canāt tell U anything about the plant if U use anything other than premixed supersoil as this is all he has grown with and admittedly doesnāt know much about nutes and clearly deficiencies. This to me is a bit twisted. How can one say they have spent time with a plant to breed and stabilize and yet dont know most of what could go wrong with it? How are U treating nute sensitivity and needs? If the bag doesnāt say he wonāt know. I still have a collection of his beans tho. This is my observation that ANY1 who follows them (MMS) can tell U as he says it frequently.
Glad I looked further into it. He has the gift of great descriptive writing, so my 1st impressions made me try a few. Mr e and another one of a 3 kind pack, idk it was a yr agoā¦ I remember both vegd fine, started having issues in flower, tossed em,. Made room for everyone else who did greatā¦ Thug pug, medgrowers primal punch, empires buckā¦ So afew breeders and nectar for the gods, and I wrote off as my error. Not sure what I bought, but I will hold off on wasting money on everything else besides the bean, until I read some ggod reviews of the final product, and see if others feel the way mms describes his magical beans. I feel like I did after I fell for kind ledsā¦ Marketingā¦ If you are good, you can sell dog feces, and folks will buy it. Luckily HLG led lights are now making up for that mistakeā¦
I am not sure now whoās not full of shitā¦ I started noticing seed prices go from the standard 100bux for 10, and I was on an ocean grown, Vader, kick to start after only overseas who k ows vendorsā¦ This price point slowly climbed but remained reasonable until like a year ago ish. I start seeing 300,400,1500,and I thought I clicked on a bulk pricing or somethingā¦ Nope, apparently there is weed out there that is magical, w 40% 1:1cbd/thc, cause I cannot think of a reason why it would be anywhere near worth thatā¦ Unless he funded a dangerous trip to a far away continent and brought back a landrace they brought to the tableā¦ I know I didnāt buy 7packs of seeds for 125 when I did buy it thoughā¦ Had I not seen this forum, I might have bought, thinking thatās it, and theyāre supposed to be killer, only to see a lot of suspicious shit being said. Idk, but usually where there is smokeā¦
I was a tester for MMS for awhile, my plants have been on his catalogs for the past 2 years or so. He is a pretty decent breeder but as a person I do not like him. He is an odd dude and is very secretive of his actual identity even though I know a couple people who have figured out who he actually is.
He was handed fully finished lines. Heās a breeder along the lines of Nirvana and Copycat Genetics, but unlike them, he just pretends he did the work himself.
Agreed. I was admittedly being way to kind so I didnāt just sound like a total dickš A more accurate summation of how I feel would be: He comes up with some nice crosses. I really loved the cut of his Pupil Magoo that I had, it was instant shoulder-dropping stress relief medication. And a buddy had a cut of his Heavenly Sativa that was so awesome that it made me love sativas again after hating on em for years. But I think he is a self-righteous douche
MMS blocked me on IG because I also followed some of his āhatersāā¦aka people calling him out. Poor guy needs to surround himself exclusively with sycophants.
I have some MMS gear I acquired before I learned what type of person he is. Crystal Castles, Grape Pupil, Turbulent Juice plus freebies received around the same time may never be grown by me. I havenāt decided what Iām going to do with them, so theyāre still in cold storage for now.
I have two of Prof Pās that Iāve always wanted, now, thanks to a kind OGāer whose initials are @oleskool830. I have Crater Lake and Platinum Huckleberry Cookies. And I think someone sent me a Huckleberry Destar. Very excited to get into them. peace
). Have also vegged Putang. (cut that down for what I THOUGHT was balls on a confirmed female clone. I could have been wrong on it but didnt want to risk).
