Seedbank pictures

[FireIn.TheSky]

I have seen the same exact picture used for at least 3 different strains by 3 different breeders. Whats up with that?

it happens a lot... malberry was caught redhanded, every pic was another strain unrelated to theirs and photoshopped.

I think there was a thread exposing seedbanks like that.. what seedbank are you talking about?

I wont say because the seedbank otherwise is pretty good and they are probably just posting the picture they are provided. I've seen that same exact picture used at multple seedbanks.

The same picture is used for MNS SSH, Sensi NL and Apothecary Haze.

If you can locate the original pic you'll know what it really is but yeah...
This kind of shit is normal everyday business.
Also, if the pic was provided by a breeder, that should say something about them as well.
Never trust a liar.

Apothecary genetics are big time scammers they steal everyones pics and strains

Also what's up with showing a Bud three weeks into flower on a strain description? That pisses me off so bad. Most likely it is because they have not grown out the seeds yet and a three week bud is hard to tell one strain from another.

Then there are companies that have been selling the strain for years, yet still have a shitty pic. I don't know why that tweaks my nipples so bad. Take some fucking pride in your work people!!

To me a picture sells the strain, to some extent. I know there is phenos to sort thru but seeing the potential for something good gets me to buy.

I agree premature pictures suck as do pictures of subpar plants. Some plants I see in the breeder description look down right terrible, even when I know there is better to be found, its like why would you choose to use a picture of a plant with no resin, nobody wants plants with shitty resin.

Too much hair or a lack of resin = compost heap
