I have very limited tent space and am not familiar with these genetics as I received them from a buddy. The two red bags and the white bag are Lit Farms and Ethos in the other. Anyone have any first hand experience with either company?

Google tells me lit can be very temperamental and read a lot of negative press about ethos, but positive on their quality. Appreciate your time!

    Mail order is an option but the legality is tricky, so use appropriate caution. Phylos Bio is a much-hated but serious breeder. The prices are insane $155 USD for 25 seeds. But given the amount of work it takes to come even close to inbreeding parent lines and evaluating hybrids, I don’t think that’s too far off a fair price.

    Many of the cheaper options don’t really use the complex vocabulary of plant breeding correctly on their sites, so Im not convinced they have all done the work.

    There are some companies in europe that claim to have stabilized some landraces. For a home grower, getting two of those and going to the trouble to do a reciprocal feminized cross, well you’d be popping new treats every crop for years to come.

      I appreciate it! I will be looking into Phylos this evening as I’ve never heard of them!

      I’ve played the ‘our genetics are stable we swear’ game one too many times and am willing to pay for reliability.
