With all the hype and unavailability of genetics for strains like Sunset Sherbet, Gelato and so on. What is the opinion on Tissue Culture as a method to obtain "true" genetics? Walk in purchase a 1/8 of medicine and try your hand at making your very own "true genetic" sunset sherbet. Its something I am considering a run at.

How would this work? Like tissue culture parts of the bud?

Tissue culture sounds cool but I dont think you can grow a plant from a dried bud.

i know his is a hot topic. I am on both sides. I have cuts that I was told to share and I do. I have cuts that I had to give my word that I would not hand out and I do follow through with my word.

As you already know much of the canna industry is hype, or follows a principle that the grass is always greener. (Pun intended)

Look at the cookie crew. If everybody had their cuts, would they be as "respected" and "admired" as they are? Probably not. So them keeping it tight is the only thing they're holding on too.

You go to forums like icmag and if you don't have an exclusive horded cut, you get no love at all.

And besides if everyone had access to the best cuts, all these seed breeders would be out of business.

I understand that if you get something and they don't want you to share it cool I will abide by those wishes but I still don't agree with it tho and tbh if I have to hoard it and not be able to share it then I don't want to grow it. It could be the one that I will truly love the most and have been searching for forever but I just don't like not being able to share something that's so good that could benefit many people.

I understand tho that's life good things are always hoarded. The Cookie Fam have done some nice things but there's so much hype and mystery to the stuff they do so I think that's why they get so much attention. Lots of people are getting OG easily now but that hasn't stopped OG from being the King of cuts. Cookie Fam talks about their stuff like its the best of the best so I think that's why a lot want to grow their stuff to see.

ICMag is a joke fareal I don't like the community over there. I use the site for info only cus it's just like you said and when you enquire about cuts they all shit on you like you should be able to get it just like they did. Tbh tho every breeder in not into hitting the elite cuts and putting them in seed lots like to pheno hunt and work lines so some of the breeders would do some of the cuts some justice but others would capitalize on the hype for the money. All in all everything I will grow will be able to be passed on as I just wouldn't feel right hoarding something so good

That's why I share the flowers, just not the cuts.

Having those cuts makes you a breeder.
It's so manipulative, get a cut, get collidal silver spray. Bam seed company. Give out a few packs as testers, give it a catchy name and a story that cannot be corroborated. Next thing you know you got a booth at the cup. I refuse to spend money with folks like that, look at swerves cookies. That strain could not have been tested before hitting the shelves. I just wish more of us actually did more research into the "hype" and not make these greedy bastards even richer.
I must work very hard to maintain my ladies and everything else and to top it all off, I make everything myself. I have respect for companies like Reserva Privada, Breeders Boutique and my personal favorite, Bag Seed Co.
I got a tester pack of some "ri-dank-u-lous" from them a while back, so I am hunting it now.
#3 Smell is very loud garlic/onion with a hint of chemical/ammonia. More hazey

#7 Same smell with a sweeter twist to it. More kushy, most resin and bud mass.

The other 2 genotypes are not picture worthy. Never smelled anything like these 2 before.

How did you know it was from Loud Seeds? I know HSHC takes in elbows and up from growers but i don't recall them ever saying where the strain originated from, just curious man because if you are right I'm going to ask my buddy to ask them next time I am in town and we go pick up some quick smoke even though he has a large stock pile but like me he likes something different know and again.

I have not got lucky enough to have found seeds in a harborside purchase myself

Loud Seeds created Chem Scout and it was #3 the cut that just won the cup and im guessing one of the Loud Seed growers dropped a bow or 2 off i got an 8th for 60$ honestly my favorite tasting cookie hybrid and i damn near shit myself when the 2 seeds dropped onto my rolling tray they plan on releasing seeds of it sometime soon but not the cut tjat one the cup
