does anyone know of labs offering genetic sequencing tests for verifying elite clone only identification in the usa? if someone wanted see if their gsc was the forum or if you had the original sour diesel etc? sc labs says they will offer it soon but are there other labs?

I can't see how a home test kit would work to be honest. There would be too many subtle differences in genes for a simple test to analyse. Surely at best it would be a home sample kit to take clean genetic samples with for sending off for a full genome reading. The cost would be too much for a non commercial operation.
Could be of value to dispensaries though.

Edit, somehow misread that as a home service sorry. Phylos does it don't they?

yeah, would be actually very attractive to get free testing trough phylos.. One Thing i would love to doo is make multiple crosses outside with pollen brush, then while planting next season, send a Young leaf to them and know by summer if you acidentally mixed up Genetics cause flying pollens from neighbour plant... ? Would that work?

Yes, but their free period is over. They charge per test now I believe.
