As far as I can tell the negative reviews are about a few separate things. At one point they had a shady CC processor that they no longer do business with.
Another thing I saw is that a few people have gotten bunk packs here and there. That’s sorta happened to me but there’s a lot more to it than “it was a bunk pack” so I’m just going to chalk it up to the genetic lottery.
A few other people have said some shit about intellectual property violations and I think that’s just bullshit. You can’t take something that was created by nature, even if you helped the process along, and claim some proprietary right to the results. That’s my opinion and people are free to disagree with me on that but I think that when people get all arrogant and overprotective about their strains/phenos/cuts it hurts the community as a whole. Gu~ finds elite genetics from around the country, crosses them with other elite genetics, and makes them available to the public, and that’s awesome. So fucking what if he won’t give you a cut of his stardawg male or whatever it is these people are always complaining about in the other thread.
Will things go smoothly 100% of the time? Fuck no. That doesn’t happen anywhere and people need to consider that when setting their expectations. My experiences have been totally positive with them, and I don’t blame Gu~ personally or GPS in general for a few slow growing, disappointing reg seeds. The other gear I got is doing so awesome that it doesn’t matter. Every seed is not going to be a winner no matter what.
