Oh nice, you should pop those. But yeah, I get all of that. I just didn't realize DJ was directly, and willingly involved in the cross himself.
i wish you guys had black walnut over there (the things are weeds here), i'd ask you if #1 is like the smell of black walnut husks when they're green and still on the tree... i think i know the smell you mean, only black walnuts and cannabis products things that do the grapefruit thing are the only two places i know of with the smell... but it isn't unlike the tomato greenery smell now that you mention it, that must be the same thing as i'm thinking of.
It might seem immoral to you but it depends how much he's selling his seeds, to me what is immoral is the price asked for some famous clones, seeing snips sold for hundreds of dollars or euros is disgusting to me. A snip or clone should not be sold for more than 30/50$ or €, in Austria the clones shops are selling rooted clones for 15/20€ a piece, that's a decent price and you can find some certified clones of famous hybrids for this price.
You can’t compare most clones they sell in Austria to some elite clones. And there are some selling elite clones too for 2000 in Austria. If you want it you pay it. If you have it, you do what you want with it, crossing selfing , reselling etc. the guy is at least honest and doesn’t act like he invented the wheel again. Doesn’t look sympathetic though, so I wouldn’t put my money there. Just in it for the money. Then there are others they steal your gear and sell it as their own, that’s immoral, like Barney putting a trademark on mimosa and they didn’t even breed it themselves.
There is a similar situation with Blueberry now, some people claim the "original" blueberry is coming from somewhere in Alaska and DJ Short version came after. It's absolutely possible there are several breeders who named their work Blueberry because their weed had the smell or even just the color of the berry, who knows?Bless you.
With no evidence at all (!) I hazard that "Sweet Tooth") is such a common phrase that it's fairly likely that two or more breeders who hit upon some sweet tasting genetics quite independently called their new strains "Sweet Tooth" and the rest of us are left to cope with the confusion ever since
I have not seen clone elite sold at 2000€ in Austria but it's possible for sure, it's a personal choice indeed but IMO it is immoral to make indecent profits on the demand, that's my point of view on this matter not everybody has to agree with it of course.
Today there are countless blueberry this or that, impossible to list all the different seeds or clones with Blueberry in their name because it is so much known they know it will sell, just like some people use the term Skunk or Sour Diesel for absolutely anything vaguely smelling similar to the originals, it's just a marketing tool; We just have to be careful to not fall for this type of traps.
Tell that to Dr GT who charged us all 100 bucks a bean to get our hands on the g13.
Yeah, Soma's NYCD cut is all grapefruit, no gas at all.
Sure seems to be the case after talking to a few other people. Exactly as you wrote it there...
First no one forced him to spend an insane amount of money for a plant and he could have made his money back and more by selling clones at decent price for years; he chose to make seeds instead to keep the original rare and hardly accessible to other, this is the problem of the clone elite culture.
