no the seed is only has good as the bud it came from,if you could take mid seeds and turn them into say northern lights then there would be no need for a seed bank you know
I aint trying to be an ass (It just comes natural), but I grew seeds from the pretty decent "Mid" we used to get. The pot that came from my "Mid" bagseed grow was in an
entirely different category than the pot the seeds came from. The pot I grew is as good or better than any I have
ever bought anywhere. All of my friends are flabbergasted at how good it is. I have the best pot in the area right now, and I am told that it's been a while since anything this good has been available.
So to say that the seed is only as good as the bud it came from is "TRUE" to the extent that it has the same genetic limitations, but don't forget that almost invariably a personal grower is gonna pamper the plants, and can better realize the full potential of the strain.
If dude is growing from seed he got from a commercial grow, unless he's a complete moron, his pot will be far and above
MUCH better than the dope he was buying. Hell, if I can grow good dope, ANYONE can!! So in that respect, you might want to watch stating shit like that as fact. Properly tended to, bag seeds will produce pot far superior to its commercial origins.
