Seems to get very common nowadays on forums.
I was sent a wrong order last year from a seedbank and got 2 packs of Ethos gear. Not a fan of this kind of breeders nor of the kind of crosses.
But decided to give a try to one Mandarin Sunset seed and the plant looked exactly like the picture on the packaging and smell/taste matches extactly the description.
i will share end of next month some pice from Crescendo of Ethos Genetics , Mandarine Cookies in it ...
the quattro kush I've seen at dispensaries is fire, 35% and it has staying power like I keep seeing it, whereas strains like loompa's and josh d come and go
it definitely has flavor and potency, it must yield better and be more resilient to pests than some of the other varieties, last tahoe I saw was a sulfur bomb

Some of the Dispensary Strains in FL are from Ethos Genetics.
Mandarin Dreams is a good Indica leaning, Orange tasting bud with great “bag” appeal. I’ve also tried a few of their other Strains that were also good.
This is only from the perspective of smoking, not growing so you might not get the same keepers...

It’s not trying to drive business to dark horse. It’s called airing a piece of shit out.

If you are running OG, Blueberry or Cookie genetics then there is a chance to get Hermies because it’s a trait of the Parents.
Another strain that I’ve smoked (not grown) of theirs is Member Berry.
It reminds me of the old school Blueberry in taste and high - although I’ll say that I recall the original Blueberry to be better in every way except for maybe yield, and if you are growing it would depend on what Phenotypes you get too.

Hi All,
I will chime in and blow the dust off of this account. Great to be back and am amazed my account is still kicking! I am cringing looking at my old grow pics!
I have grown Ethos grape diamonds and mandarin cookies R2 and had no issues with either. Grape diamonds was slightly longer on veg but really got through flowering quick, may have gone too long with her but there were a ton of terpenes on this plant. Potency was not there which is why I think I over flowered. I have pics on instagram under my growergroot account.
My last run was mandarin cookies R2 and had two dif phenos, both really nice. One really stood out which i wished i kept. Hoping to find another similar in the rest of the seeds.
With my results I ordered a bunch of his stuff and I encourage all of you to heed advice on forums/the internet but to also do you own primary research by growing your own plants regardless of what everyone else says. Sometimes growers make mistakes that ruin potential unicorns. Sometimes breeders make shit crosses that don't work out. Both are unfortunate situations.
Ethos had some epic deals on value packs and I scooped the lemon multi pack and the indica multipack. Excited to see whats in store and honestly, breeder aside, I would expect to see some hermies, lackluster plants and unicorns along the way. Everything will not be nice but it seems there are a lot of people complaining. Clones are good ways to get access to other peoples unicorns, but again... you expose yourself to different risks... pests, and a known phenotype that worked for someone else and maybe not you.
What scratches my itch, may not scratch your own so what didn't work for them may be exactly what you are looking for. Are you going to sacrifice that chance based off some Internet opinions?
Me? I'd rather take my time and do the journey myself.

I hear you and not bad advice, but as you do your research, if there are numerous complaints about a strain- you should probably heed the advice and stay away. If you google SSHZ (that's me) and Ethos, you'll find many of my grows. At this point after maybe 10 strains of theirs done- only 2 were really worth a grow- Zsweet Inzanity and Chem OG. Their straight "Cookies" was ok, their Apex and Member Berry looked great but had no buzz. Most of their others, like any of their "Glue" hybrids, thru off a lot of hermie action so I'd recommend staying away. I like Ethos because they breed for yield, but I could recommend numerous other breeders whose stuff is way better in the "HIGH" dept.

I agree for sure, working within my legal limits, it is pretty detrimental to have a hermie bang up your crop.
Can only imagine scaling that problem up to a full room.
Seems no matter the direction you go (clones, recommended genetics, decisions based off your own research) they will have their own unique and shared risks.
