Are you kidding me this long and I am the only poster or should you say joker?!, well you may very well have the joke on me as I can be sleeping beyond the 11am hour if you are out of it as I am now. J can sleep a few hours beyond that if necessary but still 11 I could easily miss. I certainly hope I do not!

I've never had or seen an actual famous 'clone only' but i've grown a few different strains that at least look as good as the clone only's i see online.

LOL. but seems Quite a "Hypocrisy" id say....!
^?^?^ Dont Know how you Guys can "Dis" The Clone onlys ..:chin:.....
.."So somebody Sprouts " Say" 10 Seeds! maybe their Fems (gr8,so the Initial Work is Less!)
Then (after a good while of Analysis etc..) of ALL of them 1 "Fits your Bill" (i.e Somewhat Superior!?) and so then Passes her OUT!! ..

( HUH ??! ) ?

Know where ya coming from tho..
I Once was Given a Blues Plant Who's Growing tip had Had Weedkiller Painted/brushed onto it.. !? (*&^%!!!) Also Another that Came with Leafminers and also Hosted the "Awful" Gnats (Black fly larvae)

(^^) well.... Theres NO Beef with the Plants.Not Their Fault, Eyh!? ..............?



Just saying ("Sneeky" Horders (and that Mentality!.....)? Watch em!) "They CAN Taint the Whole " WEED GROWING " Picture..."

p.s
Is Nice to grow from Scratch,must say..!
BUT.. " LOGIC " has Great Value Here
lol..
P.P.S "they ALL start from a Seed anyhow..There AINT No Divisions,LOL.. "
Keep Things Real..

I have never bought a clone. I would probably try one or two out if I could but there are no dope shops near me, or in my state, nor in the entire Northeast. And my own ability to start clones is poor. I like seeds though.

The most exciting and difficult part of growing for me is getting that seed to grow. I love seeing babies sprout and I love nursing them into big plants.

When I shop for seeds I am hunting for varieties that are fairly consistent from one generation to the next. This is difficult and my experience is limited. Right now I am growing 10 Satori from Mandala Seeds. Second time I have bought this variety. First time I made a few seeds. Started one of those in the spring and 9 from the new pack (one didn't make it). Satori grows tall with a very fat stem. Strong plants. Now they are just starting to show their sex. The one from seed I made is about 8 feet tall in a 10 gallon bag and quite bushy even though they are not getting full day sun. The others, from new seed, are not quite clone similar are well within what I would consider consistent for most any agricultural crop. Close enough for me. The tallest is about 8 feet and the others run 6-7 feet, all in 10 gallon bags. Satori is sweet smoke. I'll make lots of seeds this year.

All I wanna know is what came first, the plant or the seed

A chicken or the egg thing hey? valid point, wondered constantly about that but you can't have an egg without a chicken right? although vice versa is true also. basically simple one cellular life came first, then it evolved from there. So, who knows, it was lost in the mystery of time but now we have both so we are all good!

Its addaptation that made clones loose vigour over a period if they are growed only under
artificial light...

If you wish that your clone have their original vigour than you put same clone under
sun for few weeks and you will regain vigour back..

I've experienced the same with clones I've had in the past.

Best strains NOT from clone only eh?
That's a difficult one these days.

I was eye balling the Pale Dawg in yesterday drop but then blew it off for one simple reason...

I can procure both cuts that it was made from for cheaper than a pack of those seeds were going for...

That's simple logic right there...

What really needs to happen, however, is that the clone game get cleaned up. I mean... Any fake cut that's taking the lime light from a legit cut needs to be destroyed or renamed if they're valuable enough to keep.

Doesn't seem to be chicken/egg to me:biggrin: Seeded plants appeared 400 million years ago. Marijuana is no older than 35-40 million years. The direct last ancestor of Marijuana spit out some mutant seeds. Seed first.:biggrin:

Ok all riled up over asshats elsewhere, sorry it bleeded into here already but that is the end as far as I am concerned. so man, you saying the egg came first? makes sense for plants, not so much for animals the latter is one huge paradox for sure, but plants are all more important we all know that right?! ;) :D
