Hey @Sebring , according to the tracking number the PPP seeds are due today but are delayed. Hopefully will be there tomorrow. Got the Veterans giveaway starting tomorrow if you want to donate to that great cause. Just a thought

It sounds like @Sebring is looking for proven growers. That could do seed runs to keep the genetics alive. and not just seed horders.
If he had time he could look thru grow diaries. But, that is too time consuming.

Excuse me, but he said in the original post that he had about a dozen that needed preservation run, and a bunch of just extras. Please don’t call people out before you read the thread. Thanks.

Here’s what he wrote, so you don’t have to go back.

Just so NO ONE accuses the Brother of just hoarding seeds, I’ve COMPLETLY disseminated about 75 of the 500+ strains I was sitting on. Through GENEROUS DONATIONS, I’m back up there, enough for the NEXT TWO - THREE Donations(?)/Giveaways!!! Think of it as “hoarding with a purpose!!” SS/BW…mister 
NOTE: Better seeds than Meth or Crack!!! As OG knows, NO SHAME IN MY GAME!!!

@misterbee your the best kind of Horder, and that’s not even the right term. A Horder wouldn’t be rotating through his stock, and generously providing for those out there looking. 
Not quite sure yet what to call that. I’ll think on it.

I’d call him a “Thoughtful Provider”, or more appropriatly “Pollinator”

I know you are a busy man @Sebring so not expecting a fast reply if one at all but curious as to how old you guys feel seeds need to be to be deemed non-viable? This obviously depends on storage, temp, moisture levels etc but let’s just say they are kept in a light proof container on a bed of rice in your mum’s fridge(this is my scenario haha). I was thinking 5 to 10 years no worries but Sebrings post got me thinking

WOW! So much for interacting with this community. I’ll go back to just reading. You were one I thought would be a preserver. I have read your stuff.

@GrowingInThePines what’s wrong? You quoted BigMike and he responded respectfully. I don’t see the issue here.
Sebring asked for suggestions, and @BigMike55 provided some. In the post you quoted BigMike on, he even says that Sebring should keep the seeds that need to be reproduced and ask for volunteers.
I’m just trying to figure out why you are upset.

Just looks like a simple case of internet miscommunication

@Neb I think so too. I mean, BigMike did say please and thank you. If he added in a sorry, he would probably be granted Canadian citizenship

It may not have been your intention, but this post did come across as if you were calling out BigMIke, with the “not just seed horders.” comment.
It’s obvious now that you had no ill intentions and you’re feelings were misconstrued by at least a few of us.
Now, who’s going to be first to step up and do a repro of what Sebring has to offer. I’m betting there’s fire to be had in his surplus packs.

What?!?!?
Reread your own post, there, catfish!
You called me out as a hoarder right after implying I’m lacking in my growing skills.
If that was not your intent, then I apologize for taking it the wrong way.
But I stand by my original say… If you had read what Sebring had actually posted, maybe this would not have happened.

I’d be down to try my hand at trying to do an increase of something off of the B list. I’ve never made seeds before so I wouldn’t want to step to a real unicorn of a cultivar for fear of fucking it up and losing it, but I’d love to use my tiny space to try to help out. Timing is the only hiccup I have in mind, but we could cross that bridge if/when we come to it. Just putting it out there

Yes, indeed. I did nothing wrong, is all.
Now, admittedly, I was not having a good day to begin with, so I may should have let it alone.
This Afghanistan thing has me pretty pissed.
Sorry if I’m out of sorts.

Well if you need something ran and the seeds sent back I’d be glad to help out @Sebring. I’d probably hang on to 20 or so but I could easy make a few thousand seeds in a preservation run for you or your site.
Just let me know as I have stuff finishing now and probably won’t start back up til Oct.
