G13 Labs - C99?!?

Well, maybe i shouldn't judge the company by this one seed. Maybe Pineapple Express is just what we got from the seeds and the freebie was accidentally labelled wrongly. Or it was really a rare pheno, who knows.
In general i don't really have a problem with G13 labs. But if other people had similar experiences it would be a reason for me not to buy their gear just because i liked a freebie. A single seed can't represent a strain 100% but the breeder should still be honest and give you the right ones.

They don't exactly win many cups either though

The C99 freebie I got with the march promo withered and died in the field.

yes that's true. But fuck the cups. Too many samples for the judges to test, selected phenos straight from the breeders and so much politics. It may be a bold statement but i say that in 9 out of 10 cases an average grower will fail to reproduce the cup quality from the seeds they're selling as cup winners. Only experienced growers who are able to find and separate the right pheno will succeed if it is possible at all. Was it a cut from an F1? Are the seeds from the same batch or are they selling S1 from that cut? How was it grown? So many questions....
I'm not writing this to support G13 but imo it's possible to find a keeper in their gear. It would just piss me off if they would be cheating with their freebies.

Happens with the best.... and it would be unfair to judge a strain by one dead seedling. Most people who grew it were kinda happy with the result but pissed off about the name.

i ran the freebee ... wasn't bad at all .. easy to grow,ran it like 50 days from show. some say to start your count from flip, but i always count from show .... and a high that just makes ya grin that last about 3 -4 hrs.

edit: oh yea i'll run it again!

anyone grow g13 c99 there day? I order c99 from females seeds but they send wrong to g13 labs.... i found on g13labs and attitude seeds website its say ( jack herer x haze ) not pineapple x grapefruit as everyone say !

Looking for some more reviews

I heard its crap and not a 50-52 day strain. Getthem to send you female seeds or brothers grimm or moscas version.
