Bogus GSC seeds ?

[91GT347]

I have been looking into a few strains that I'm interested in. Durban Poison, Blue Dream, and GSC(Girl Scout Cookies). Reading the reviews I have noticed MANY people saying most of the GSC that's going around isn't the true GSC. Thats seeds and clones people are buying. Honestly, most of the posts sounded like they were written by a 15 year old wannabe gangsta, and chances are they don't have a clue. Then I see in HT that some banks are saying others are selling seeds with names of strains that the grower hasn't even released yet. The GSC is my biggest concern. I don't see anyone concerned that the others may not be real. Anyone know where to get GSC seeds that are for sure, legit ?

One more question while I'm at it (Sorry). A few people were saying the GSC was more hype than anything. Some even saying it was fairly weak. I'm guessing a bad grower, if it's true at all. Has anyone had the real deal, that can give me a solid short short version of a review ? Thanks, and sorry for the long post.

I'm guessing this is the right area for this. Since it is mostly dealing with info on GSC. Sorry, if it's not. I wasn't real sure.

the original thin mint is clone only so the seeds you find, while maybe similar, will not be the original girl scout cookie strain. cali connection's gsc is listed as having gdp in it, but jigga, the creatorof gsc, says it's floridah(florida og) x F1 Durban. If I were in your shoes and searching for a good representation of cookies i would definitely go for the forum cut that's been going around. And it's more than hype. The cookies strain is very unique and pungent with a strong kush-like high.

Ive had it several times from different dispensaries around the bay area where it originated from, and I dont get why it is such a big deal. I mean it's good, but not remarkably better than a lot of other high end strains. Ive found better stuff pheno hunting through seed packs before.

I have been trying to get a legit cut of blue dream. I have made 2 trips to visit my brother in colorado springs and both times I came back bogus cuts of blue dream.

O also have read and heard that the "TRUE" GSC is only available in clone form, but there are some seeds floating around out there that are somewhat similar.

i've been hearing that from credible people as well. don't know if it's because the clone is exclusive (reason why so much hype) or people just want to be apart of something just to say i got it to.

yes there are seeds available, but all are hybrids of the cookies.

so no one could self a clone and produce seeds of the pheno?

Anyone seed co selling you GSC seeds is a full of shit. They're just trying to cash into the GSC hype. The only way to make seeds of a F1 hybrid is to cross the original parents. No one knows the specific genetics of F1 Durban, or Flo-Rida. The breeder intentionally keep the genetics secret.

Any clones going around came from bagseed, and none are close to the real thing. Same with the GSC hybrid seeds. The problem is that nobody has the real cut, the breeder's crew keeps it locked down, so everyone is breeding to these different S1 bagseed.

i think you better go to icmag and check out the latest findings. the guys who have a helping hand on the actual gsc clones have recently got the egg on their face after talking the same way you're talking right now.

 

[Kite High]

ok gotcha...so all the clones and all the seeds are fakes except for the one pheno a grower mothered....all a bunch of lying ass malarkey hype

good cause even the fucking name is stupid...oh yeah girl scout cookies sounds like it will really get me high ....AGAIN THANKS

tbh, Kite, let them tell it, the original clone is held so tightly that only a few people in this world have it and if s1's were made, it staid and remains in house.

if you ask me, it's just a ploy to prevent others from cashing in on the hype. from the looks of it, the price they were charging no longer holds it's value, so know being that the clone is out there, when it wasn't suppose to, the value has been dropped and they no longer could rape the med community the way they intended to. what better way to regain hold of the market than telling everyone that any cookies that's not being bought from them is fake? hence the reason why you find the same guys posting in any and every thread cookie related, protesting that the op has fake cookies.

like, who really does that? if i know i have something that no one else have, why go through all the trouble on facebook, attitude, instagram, icmag, caliconnection and who else knows?

Th gsc is some fire for real but a clone"only" is just a keeper Pheno of a cross the breeder jigga didn't make the shit appear he crossed floridah x Durban and found something special and yes the hype is bc it's closely guarded which is whatever. It would be nice if all "clone only" strains were available in seed form but usually get watered down with cross that just inst as special... Most every breeder that has the Dank just takes an elite and crosses it with another elite basically pheno hunt for a long time name it something catchy and build the hype anyone can do it really but there la no way a strain can have nationwide "hype" if its not that great. It used to be granddaddy green crack and blue dream... Now it's the cookies next ur that Pennsylvania pigeon pussy will come out and people won't care as much about the thin mints or forum cut. Ill stick to my affie I think

 

[kindnug]

You guys haven't heard of that killer new strain?

Yeah. The question "who has the best gsc seeds?" will get answered just in time for the next hype to come along.

@OP- I wouldn't even bother. There are so many pretendo-cuts/crosses and now swerve's trying to cash in too, the chances of finding the legit are slim.

I've smoked the girl scout cookies, thin mints, animal crackers, cookie's monster, platinum cookies, yadda yadda yadda .

It was like watching The Hangover for the first time; word-of-mouth had already set my expectations so high that the inevitable first-go was a disappointment.

It's all good weed. But all the talk around it is just that; talk. These people paying hundreds, if not thousands, for "real deal GSC cuts" might feel slightly embarrassed when there's another market shift and their Ps are on par with everything else price-wise. Not trying to hate on anybody, but if you bought into that Planetary/Presidential OG bullshit back in 2009/10ish then you know what I say is true. Smokers' want what HT/Rappers/these boards tell them to, and the kick most of the aforementioned groups get is being the guy with the dank newshit on the block. So the cycle is self-perpetuating and results in alot of people getting very defensive and chest beaty over something that's not very important.

My buddy who grew-out the cookies cut he got from a collective said it was a pain in the ass and that he's switching back to his standbys.

Yeah, that summed it up perfectly. And the value has already dropped, harborside doesnt even sell it as their topshelf
anymore,its 55 an eighth and not $60. Some clubs are weary of buying it because a lot of the pounds people have been bringing in are seeded, so I guess a lot of the janky cuts floating around are herm sensitive.

 

[PJ Diaz]

It doesn't stop the rappers with cash from dropping major bank on pounds of the real deal from the inner circle who holds these cuts so tight. That's how the hype works for them. You think Snoop Lion thinks twice before dropping $5k on a bag of the legit shit? No bro he don't. Real GSC still goes for top dollar because they have the market cornered, despite the flood of bullshit that runs alongside their game. These guys are smart hustlers, not botanical breeders.

I flowered my first GSC cut and tossed it. I was recently gifted a different cut. I almost tossed it before flowering, but decided to take a few clones and then give it away. GSC is good, but I don't know Snoop Lion.

I've noticed the same people posting in GSC threads whining like little bitches, jealous cuz they can't get any cookies.

 

[HeartlandHank]

It's crazy how the demand fills so quickly with the next thing... Dispensary owners must be hitting their heads against the wall trying to keep up with the next hype.
